What’s 90 Feet, 180 Tons and Has a Heart the Size of a Volkswagen?

Documentary About the World’s Largest Creature Spouts onto DVD July 21st  

Dive down into the deep blue sea Down Under to learn what you didn’t know about Earth’s largest inhabitant in The Big Blue, spouting onto DVD July 21 from Infinity Entertainment Group. 

For years fishermen have known of a unique spot in the ocean off southern Australia, a place of amazing catches and a huge luminescent blue creature of the deep.  As much as 100 feet long, weighing up to 180 tons, with a heart the size of a Volkswagen and a tongue that weighs more than an elephant, the Blue Whale is a sight to behold. 

Join Smithsonian Networks as HD cameras capture the planet’s largest living creature having a feeding frenzy.  

Also includes the bonus feature Footprints on the Water: The Nan Hauser Story, which follows the personal quest and groundbreaking work of this American conservationist as she journeys to some of the last unspoiled places on earth on a mission to unravel new clues to the behavior of whales and dolphins.

To win one of four Smithsonian’s The Big Blue DVDs, post your name and we will pick the winners Wednesday, July 29, 2009.
