River Monsters

Series 2 Episode 4: Congo Killer

Jeremy Wade travels to one of the few rivers left on the planet that will still test a fisherman - the Congo. He is on the trail of a terrifying legend - the spirit Mami Wata, which is said to lure fishermen from their boats, taking them to the bottom of the river where they are imprisoned for eternity. It sounds far-fetched, but Jeremy soon discovers that the truth is every bit as frightening as the myth.
