In 2015 and 2016 Niko Jäger realised 12 x 52 min episodes and 10 x 24 min, including flanking content, social media and promotional assets in co-operation with several external production companies across the globe.

Explorers – Adventures of the Century sets a new standard of adventure documentary programming. The TV-series follows the most daring explorers chasing their dreams of everlasting adventure. With more nerve-racking explorations than ever before, the successfully established documentary series continues to push the boundaries of expedition storytelling and combines premium documentary filming with forward-looking, progressive techniques of capturing the moment. All episodes are self-narrated by those, who make it happen in places nobody else can. Or will.
