    Default recommend me some documentaries....

    going back offshore on Sunday after 12 weeks at home due to a hand injury (non wanking related)

    love a good documentary, especially sharks etc. (killer, dangerous animals etc)

    also love history stuff, but has to be relatively new, not stuff that was filmed 10-20 years ago, and visually enticing so to speak.

    love shit like how's it's made, but that's getting a bit samey these days.

    anything engineering related usually gets my attention but nature shit is top of the list.

    suggestions?

    Mythbusters, not documentary as such but an interesting watch, closest to engineering than the other subjects you listed.

    Blackfish is a very good documentary, it's about killer whales particularly the ones at Seaworld.

    If you've not seen it well worth watching.

    If you do watch KOG then 'Chasing Ghosts: Beyond the Arcade' is a good follow up
