Netflix has launched a new posthumous interview series titled Famous Last Words, based on a Danish format that sees notable figures share a final message before the episode is released after their death.<\/p>\n

The inaugural episode follows the death of celebrated primatologist and environmental activist Dr. Jane Goodall. Goodall died last week aged 91<\/strong><\/a> and was known for her pioneering work in chimpanzee research and the foundation of the Jane Goodall Institute \u2013 a global non-profit wildlife and environment conservation organisation. <\/p>\n

In the episode, which was recorded \u201cunder strict confidentiality\u201d in March with producer Brad Falchuk, Goodall shares candid thoughts on her work, spirituality, regrets and even people she doesn’t like. <\/p>\n

\u201cAbsolutely, there are people I don\u2019t like, and I would like to put them on one of (Elon) Musk\u2019s spaceships and send them all off to the planet he\u2019s sure he\u2019s going to discover,\u201d Goodall tells Falchuk. <\/p>\n

Who\u2019s on the spaceship? \u201cAlong with Musk would be Trump and some of Trump\u2019s real supporters. And then I would put Putin in there, and I would put President Xi. I\u2019d certainly put Netanyahu in there and his far-right government. Put them all on that spaceship and send them off.\u201d<\/p>\n

Goodall, who was an authority on the aggressiveness of alpha male adults, had never been shy on criticising Trump. <\/p>\n

In a 2022 interview\u00a0with MSNBC, she said Trump exhibited \u201cthe same sort of behavior as a male chimpanzee will show when he\u2019s competing for dominance with another.\u201d\u00a0She added: \u201cThey\u2019re upright, they swagger, they project themselves as really more large and aggressive than they may actually be in order to intimidate their rivals.\u201d<\/p>\n

Goodall had also criticized Trump\u2019s decision to pull the US out of the Paris climate accord, describing the move as \u201cimmensely depressing.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the Netflix episode, she shares that she believes \u201cthat most people are decent\u201d and in a post-interview address to camera, ends with a message of hope and encouragement. <\/p>\n

\u201cI want you to understand that we are part of the natural world. And even today, when the planet is dark, there still is hope. Don\u2019t lose hope. If you lose\u00a0hope, you become apathetic and do nothing,\u201d she said. \u201cAnd if you want to save what is still beautiful in this world \u2013 if you want to save the planet for the future generations, your grandchildren, their grandchildren \u2013 then think about the actions you take each day. Because, multiplied a million, a billion times, even small actions will make for great change.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYou have it in your power to make a difference. Don\u2019t give up. There is a future for you. Do your best while you\u2019re still on this beautiful Planet Earth that I look down upon from where I am now.\u201d<\/p>\n

If you can watch the first episode of Famous Last Words<\/strong><\/a> and not tear up at watching the final words of a hero for Planet Earth, a true force for good, you\u2019re made of stronger stuff than we are.<\/p>\n

Jane Goodall\u2019s episode is available to stream now. It is essential viewing.<\/p>\n

RIP Jane Goodall 1934 – 2025<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
