The subtitle `... And Somehow Survived' could accompany this programme that goes around the world to tell the stories of victims of near-fatal animal bites, stories bolstered with actual photos and video footage. Both the victims and the doctors involved in saving them are interviewed, and a science lesson of sorts that shows the aftermath of lethal toxins in the human body is also included.
