The Most Extreme is a long-running documentary TV series on the American cable television network, Animal Planet. It first aired on July 1, 2002. Each episode focuses on a specific animal feat, such as strength, speed, flirtation, appendages, diet, etc., and examines and ranks 10 animals which portray extreme or unusual examples of that quality. The rankings are not arrived at by a scientifically rigorous process; they serve only to give a broad depiction.
| 1. | Barnacle Goose) The babies jump off of a cliff 300 feet at three days old in the mountains! |
| 2. | Bharal) Males fight in the mountains, where they could fall at any time. |
| 3. | Weddell Seal) They dive in 33 degrees water and stay there for minutes. |
| 4. | Click Beetle) Sends itself very high in the air by clicking. They experience over 100 times as much intensity than a cannonballer; that's 400g-forces! |
| 5. | Brown Pelican) Dives in the water at 90 mph in places like Galveston, Texas. |
| 6. | Eagle) Performs a deadly dance to attract females. |
| 7. | Flying Snake) It jumps from tree to tree without any natural equipment. One mistake could be fatal. |
| 8. | Orangutan) Swings over 200 ft. high in the trees on a limb. |
| 9. | Sloth) Takes huge risks spending its life upside down. |
| 10. | Gecko) They cling to any surface, even upside-down ones. |
