David Attenborough -- classic clips on-line

I can think of no one else whose filmmaking has done more to illuminate the wonders of the natural world than Sir David Attenborough. From grand vistas to tiny insects, he and his film crews have been everywhere and filmed everything. The images are gorgeous, and the narrations are packed with information. I don't know if they'd fit into Randy Olson's scheme for films that reach a mass audience. But for biologists, they have no equal.

Now the BBC is making many clips from the films available at the BBC Wildlife Finder. I've only had time to poke around a little, but it looks like a fabulous resource.
