Synopsis

If you’ve ever come face-to-face with a viper, you’ll know exactly why they have the reputation of being one of nature’s most fearsome predators.

One look at a viper tells you that they are built for the kill: they have wide mouths that open to a staggering 110 degrees, sharp, retractable fangs that deliver deadly venom in a clinical stabbing motion, and huge, triangular heads that allow them to devour larger prey.

With new science and signature 3D graphics, peel away the evolutionary secrets and amazing engineering that make vipers one of nature's cold-blooded success stories.

Answers come from an in-depth exploration of the vipers' unique bio-engineering, their highly aggressive nature and astounding breeding capability. Beneath the skin, explore these creatures' bizarre anatomy.

Their oversized heads are perfectly designed to devour large prey. An enormous gaping mouth can swivel open almost 180 degrees. And their huge retractable fangs can swing forward to strike.

Ultimate Viper is part of Nat Geo Wild's "Ultimate" series of documentaries which include Ultimate Shark, Ultimate Snake and Ultimate Disasters.
