Birth

Sunday, March 21st, on the National Geographic Channel they will be airing  The Great Sperm Race. It tells the story of human conception as it's never been told before, as helicopter-mounted cameras, world-renowned scientists, CGI and dramatic reconstruction bring to life the extraordinary journey of sperm, from ejaculation to egg - scaled up to human size, with the sperm played by real people.  Click here to see great pictures (scroll down a bit) from the show of their amazing race.  It looks really good!  Watch the trailer below.

Filmed in the Canadian Rockies with hundreds of real people representing sperm.

A team of Leukocytes from the female immune system are sent to kill the sperm in the uterus.
