Travel Channel dropped the latest episode of Ripley’s today on their app. The focus is on individuals who push the limits when it comes to exposing, “Invisible Worlds.”

The best part about Ripley’s Believe It or Not! is the actual information that we are receiving. Most of what we watch, even if it seems very basic is in fact ruled by science. However, the writers wrap that knowledge up in a nice, neat entertaining package. Of course, Campbell’s narration is also a key factor and let’s face it, he is the consummate professional when it comes to doing wraparounds.

Here is what you can expect when you tune into this amazing show.
