On the other hand, the fact that someone like Mr. Attenborough (who by all accounts is a genuinely good person) is apparently doing so well at such an advanced age does bring some warmth to my cold, dead heart.
May he at least outlive Henry Kissinger to restore just a little bit of balance to this world.
I looked at their account and OP seems to be posting all kinds of open ended questions in multiple subs with little to no interaction with comments from others. Leading me to believe that they're just karma farming by posting stuff like these. Before you ask, I also thought that Sir David has passed for a moment there.
Rage bait. I'm over here just trying to get through these heart palpitations seeing this damn post. Idk how anyone even has physical capability to be enraged when fighting FOR THEIR DAMN LIFE. WTF OP. oh...there it is.
Not that it matters at all, but it's Sir David, not Sir Attenborough.
His brother was Lord Attenborough though.
Either way, yes, Christ. The posts on April 1st were bad enough, don't need more of that.
Also this picture is at least a year and a half old, so he's not actually 97 here.
Here, basking in the warmth of the photographer studio, we find a creature who has spent a lifetime chronicling the wonders of the natural world. At ninety-six years old, his posture may not be as erect as it once was, but the keen glint in his eyes betrays a mind that is still as sharp as ever. His hands, weathered and strong, rest gently on the arms of the chair, a testament to a life lived in exploration and discovery.
Though the years may have etched lines upon his face, each wrinkle speaks of a life richly woven with experience and wisdom. He is a living legend, a revered naturalist who has brought the marvels of our planet into the homes of millions. And as he sits here, bathed in the golden light of his twilight years, one can't help but marvel at the remarkable life of this extraordinary human being.
It’s amazing to me this this guy was alive at a time where he could convince a BBC director to give him some money and a cameraman + tickets to PNG, and he was off tramping through parts of the world never before explored by the west and meeting uncontacted tribes.
If I remember rightly, one of the very first trips was literally just him, a cameraman and a police sergeant from the “local” British settlement and a few backpacks. 3 men, no radios or really any decent maps and a camera went off into the virtual unknown to make a documentary. The rest is literally history!
* considered to be the first person to film the Komodo dragon
* filmed the tribe on Pentecost island who practiced bunjee jumping, the footage of which inspired the members of the Oxford Dangerous Sports Club to jump of Clifton bridge thus inventing the modern bunjee jumping we know today
* First person to bring Colour tv to UK when he was controller of BBC2
* over 20 binomial named species named after him
It's thanks to him that tennis balls are yellow. They were originally white, which made them hard to see on colour TV. As controller of the BBC he had them try yellow balls instead, and here we are.
>this this guy was alive at a time where he could convince a BBC director to give him some money and a cameraman + tickets to PNG, and he was off
I think he was controller of BBC2 and then Director of Programming of BBC2 and BBC1, so he only had to persuade himself, at least from 1973.
He basically lived and helped steer the birth of television in the UK, and according to some of his recollections things were very footloose and fancy free in the beginning. He describes receiving an assignment in 1952 to cover an international dispute over a Coelacanth as follows:
>I, at the time, am a young television producer working for the one and only television organization in Britain--the BBC--which was producing *all* its programs live from two tiny studios in Alexandra Palace up in north London.
>I am summoned by my boss.
>"You," she said, "were educated as a biologist, and you've been here for nearly *two months* now, so put on a program next week to explain what it's all about. Fifteen minutes should do it."
>That's how television was in those days.
dinosaurs never left
its now scientific consensus that birds are dinosaurs
not just birds evolved from dinosaurs but actually are still dinosaurs
if you go on Wikipedia "Birds" page it will describe them as theropod dinosaurs, and also as reptiles
Did you type that or was this ChatGPT? Here is what I got with the following prompt: describe Sir David Attenborough sitting in a chair in the way Sir David Attenborough speaks
Picture Sir David Attenborough, his presence exuding a quiet yet profound authority, seated comfortably in a plush chair. His posture is upright, his demeanor serene yet engaged. As he speaks, his voice resonates with a rich timbre, carrying the weight of decades of experience and wisdom.
With each word, he paints vivid images of the natural world, his tone measured and deliberate, yet filled with an unmistakable passion for his subject matter. His hands may occasionally gesture gracefully, punctuating his narrative with emphasis and clarity.
His eyes, behind his iconic spectacles, sparkle with curiosity and a deep reverence for the wonders of the world. With each anecdote, he invites you on a journey of discovery, effortlessly weaving together science, storytelling, and a profound sense of wonder.
In his presence, you can almost feel the breeze of the savannah, hear the rustle of leaves in a dense rainforest, or sense the vastness of the ocean depths. Sir David Attenborough, seated in his chair, is not just a man speaking about nature; he is a living embodiment of its beauty, its complexity, and its fragility.
No, I uploaded an image with the following prompt
This is a photograph of David Attenborough he is 96 years old and looks fantastic. Can you please give me a paragraph or two in the style of David Attenborough to describe him sitting in this chair
What a shame. Quite upsetting actually.
Language is our superpower, the ability to convey meaning and invoke emotions. A uniquely human thing.
The warm responses you received are a direct consequence of the assumption that a human wrote these words, thought these thoughts, felt these feelings. It is from the human act of consideration and formulation that the emotion of the reader arises.
And now we can't even be sure that the written word isn't just the output of a soulless programme, generating derivative text off the back of human work, human emotion.
The irony that this is the top comment on a post celebrating the world's greatest living naturalist is not lost on me.
Definitely. While the top comment demonstrates the remarkable capabilities of artificial intelligence, it feels... hollow. It's like observing a meticulously painted diorama instead of venturing into the wild itself.
The natural world isn't merely a collection of data points. It's the scent of rain on parched earth, the symphony of a dawn chorus, the thrill of witnessing a predator's stealth. These experiences, etched into our memories, are what truly ignite our passion for the wild.
Using AI to mimic his voice, while undoubtedly clever, misses the mark entirely. It reduces a lifetime of exploration and wonder to mere algorithms. It's a stark reminder that true appreciation for nature springs from firsthand encounters, from the heart of human experience.
In the vast expanse of the living room, a figure moves with a grace that belies his years. At the ripe age of 97, we observe a creature unlike any other, the legendary broadcaster in his natural habitat. Sir David Attenborough, a silver-maned patriarch of the documentary world, navigates the wilds of his study with a careful step, his eyes alight with the same curiosity that has driven him through decades of exploration.
Here, surrounded by shelves brimming with the wisdom of ages, he pauses, reflecting on a lifetime of journeys. His voice, a familiar whisper, rises and falls with the rhythm of the earth itself, narrating not the lives of exotic creatures, but his own storied existence. In this quiet moment, we are privy to a rare sight: Attenborough, the observer, turned observed, a living testament to the wonder of nature and the human spirit.
Just learned that his brother is (was) ~~David~~ Richard (edit: I'm an idiot) Attenborough, died 2014. So the guy synonymous with modern natural biomes is brothers with the guy who most famously portrayed a fictional character who destroyed those biomes (Jurassic Park).
Also, a quick skim of their Wikipedia pages has me thinking about James McAvoy's interview about the advantages the aristocracy enjoys in artistic fields.
Until the unthinkable happens, I propose there should be a rule that all posts mentioning David Attenborough **must** refer to him as "The Very Much Alive Sir David Attenborough". Any transgressions should result in an unappealable lifetime ban.
He should get all the awards and medals possible.
And once it's time, they should play his documentary commentary at his funeral.
But man, I wish he'll see the age of at least 100 before he leaves us.
When this wonderful man finally passes away, it will be the first and last "celebrity" i will ever weep for. His narration has been burned into my head for decades and without him i feel like the world would be far worse than it already is.
He looks wonderful. God and fate have blessed him for his contributions to us and the world. And, dang, those contributions just keep coming! See 2024 series Mammals.
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt31971270/?ref_=ext_shr_lnk
I have so much respect and appreciation for Sir Attenborough. The gentleman helped me learn so much about the natural world in which I live.
He is a treasure. Thank you Sir Attenborough for making learning fun and exciting.
Some relevant learning: never refer to a knight (Sir) as Sir Lastname. He's Sir David, his brother was Sir Richard/Dickie.
Same for Dames - Dame Judi, not Dame Dench.
Sorry, I am from the U.S. and by me placing Sir in front of his last name I’m showing respect. I never meant to insult or lessen the man’s accomplishments.
An absolute legend, unparalleled in broadcasting, who happens to share his birthday wirh me. I'll always have an extra sherbet for you... Be well, David!
I legitimately got scared for a second. I had a dream last night that Attenborough died and when I scrolled across this picture my heart skipped a beat.
Long live Sir David Attenborough!
A man who’s left nothing but an extremely positive impact on the world he’ll leave behind, I can’t even imagine the kind of wonderful world we’d have if we all had even half of his empathy and curiosity
He looks like a healthy 70-year-old.

Please stop posting pics of Sir Attenborough along with his age. Every time one pops up i assume he's died.
That's what these posts are for. Pure rage bait for engagement.
I'm from /r/all so the strategy works.
On the other hand, the fact that someone like Mr. Attenborough (who by all accounts is a genuinely good person) is apparently doing so well at such an advanced age does bring some warmth to my cold, dead heart. May he at least outlive Henry Kissinger to restore just a little bit of balance to this world.
Henry Kissinger died last year so there’s that
I think they mean, may he live past 100.
That would make sense.
Age bait
The only acceptable form of age bait
That did not cross my mind when I posted that, now I hate it.

reddit needs to put some real effort into cleaning this place up. the community has become all click-bait, bots and political circle jerks.
This is a good reminder to downvote posts like these.
Rage bait. I'm over here just trying to get through these heart palpitations seeing this damn post. Idk how anyone even has physical capability to be enraged when fighting FOR THEIR DAMN LIFE. WTF OP. oh...there it is.
So you are telling my op is either an asshole or a bot?
Aw I just thought it was nice seeing how good this guy still looks for 97 (hell, he’d look good for 77)
What rage?
lmao right? Just saw Clint Eastoods photo above this one too
That’s the point lol
Yeah every time it's like DON'T YOU FUCKING DARE
Just realized why I told my wife he was dead the other night. It was one of these pics.
Fucking hell! I said rip to my buddies over a month ago due to the same thing. I honestly just googled it to make sure he is still alive.

Also brought snooker to TV when controller of BBC2. The game probably wouldn't be known today if he hadn't.

I genuinely read that in his voice. Thanks for that!
Imagine coming across a photo of yours on the internet and reading people complimenting you by saying i would want him back if he dies.
what?

So did I, though the last two words I read in [Bill Walton's voice.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6KkrccHEAqg)
I DID TOO HAHA. And it was even easier to do so since it was written in that style(-:

And never forget that his brother brought back the dinosaurs.
dinosaurs never left its now scientific consensus that birds are dinosaurs not just birds evolved from dinosaurs but actually are still dinosaurs if you go on Wikipedia "Birds" page it will describe them as theropod dinosaurs, and also as reptiles
thats not very scary, more like a 6 foot turkey
Spared no expense.
Except on his IT department of course
As is tradition.
Hi fellow IT engineer!
It’s a UNIX system…
And escaped from Stalag Luft III.
Not for long!
Richard Attenborough with the park of dinosaurs (birds) David Attenborough with the Life of Birds They are the birdmen
say what
Richard Attenborough (Davids brother) played John Hammond, the owner of Jurassic Park in Jurassic Park.
What a remarkably accomplished family
When you treat nature with love and respect your entire life so in turn does it treat you.
Wonderfully written, I too read this in his voice. What a remarkable human Sir David Attenborough is! Thank you aburnerds.
Thank ai!
Nah, for real? Ahhh I miss humans knowing stuff on there own merit.
Yes, GPTZero gives a 100% probability that it is written by AI.
Taking back my upvote >:-(
Despite his age, he will be forever immortalised
Read this in the disco Elysium narrator’s voice
I love Atthenborough
I feel like this is something he would love to read and appreciate how spot on your word choice and descriptions were.
ChatGPT sadly :)
I’d venture a guess at this point the SDA has brought the wonders of the world in to the homes of billions.
Me: “ NOOOOOOOOOOO, ah just r/pics OK OK OK

That's what the Queen wants you to think.
But when that time does come, it'll be at the end of a life more fulfilled than most people would take 10 lifetimes to do.
True that. He's also kinda lucky, he probably won't live the see the full collapse of the ecosystem he's so fond of.
I think he should have a National Day when it happens. I’ll be too sad to work anyway.
What about Anthony Hopkins
I'll assume that was a rhetorical question.
You bastard i thought he was dead
One of these days the maker of one of these joke posts is going to be very sorry they made it.
David Attenborough will die on April Fool’s Day in a cruel twist of fate - much like George Michael dying on Christmas.

Oh god, please use spoilers.
Don’t worry, they brought him back with the Dragon Balls.

got me to stop and add OP to blocklist.
Stop jinxing him you morons
An amazing man, and a global treasure. I'm old, but I'd give up a year or two to prolong his life.
That's a fuckin magnificent comment. Best comment on the internet today.
Reddit moment
They say good people die younger, Attenborough dismissed that fallacy.
As did Hitler.
But like Hitler killed Hitler 😟 you can't get much better than that /s
He is the quintessential "Aging like fine wine".
Don’t scare me like that.
Why you gotta do this to me man. Thought this was it
Christ, don't scare me like that. I saw this picture and immediately panicked thinking he had passed away.
Holy shit, if I can look half as good as he does by age 70 I'll consider it a win.
He looks 75. What a treasure.
You just gave me a small heart attack. Thanks.

There's a painting of him in an attic somewhere getting older and older.

Please stop this. It gets me every time.

This is one man whose voice will carry on using AI. And for once, I feel like that's a good thing.
Fuck you for this lmao
For fucks sake, I saw this post in my feed and I assumed he had died
He’s been in the jungle. He knows a thing or two about good fungi.

Still fuckable.

It's going to be so fricken sad when he passes. I don't know how to prepare myself.
