Explorer: Born to Rage?
National Geographic Channel’s Explorer: Born to Rage? investigates the discovery behind a single “warrior gene” directly associated with violent behavior. With bullying and violent crime making headlines, this controversial finding stirs up the nature-versus-nurture debate. Now, former Grammy-winning rocker, author and radio/television broadcaster Henry Rollins goes in search of carriers from diverse, sometimes violent backgrounds who agree to be tested for the genetic mutation. Who has the warrior gene? And are all violent people carriers? The results turn assumptions upside down.

Also, in early 2011, Henry Rollins will be appearing in a Nat Geo WILD special called Snake Underworld. As more and more Americans bring deadly snakes into their homes – some legally, and some illegally – Rollins guides viewers through the underbelly of America’s (and his) obsession with snakes, revealing just how far some people will go to get their hands on the most dangerous snake species on the planet. “Who ever thought that I’d get to investigate two of my favorite subjects, anger and snakes, with National Geographic?” quipped Rollins. “I have enjoyed partnering with the Nat Geo Channels for an in-depth look at both fascinating topics.”
