Fifty thousand square miles
of eternally shifting sand.

:01:34
You'd think nobody
could make a living here.

:01:46
And yet, when the wind
dies down and the dust settles...

:01:50
...you see a tiny track,
and many more.

:01:56
No matter how harsh
and inhospitable a place is...

:01:59
...there's always someone
who's willing to live there.

:02:03
A whole community of little creatures
have had millions of years...

:02:06
...to adapt to the impossible
conditions in this desert.

:02:11
This one must have had three legs.
:02:14
This one only one.
:02:27
The beetles who live here
have an air-cooled cooling system...

:02:30
...like a Volkswagen, so they have
to run like crazy to keep their cool.

:02:35
Even courting has to be done on the run.
:02:50
A quick kiss at full gallop,
and the romance is over.

:02:56
When you can't run any longer...
:02:57
...you have to dig like mad
to get out of the heat.
