Transcript

From the heart of the jungle comes the savage cry of victory. This is Tarzan, Lord of the Jungle. From the black core of Dark Africa, land of enchantment, mystery and violence, comes one of the most colorful figures of all time.

Transcribed from the immortal pan of Edgar Rice Burroughs, Mr. White's son of the jungle. And now in the very words of Mr. Burroughs, the story of Tarzan and the life of Thor. Although both are on the dark continent, Tarzan's jungle and the city of Cape Town have little in common.

So he won 11 hours and 32 minutes temperature, 61 degrees, integrate pressure, density, volume, so we're not done.
