Back in November last year, a Story Productions crew travelled to the interior of Bahia, Northeast Brazil, with a producer / director from Texas Crew, to film the first of two segments for the new Travel Channel series
of Ripley’s Believe It or Not!
The first episode aired in June 2019
and we’re excited to be able to finally share a look behind the scenes of the shoots. Tonight, the episode entitled a "Curious Case of..." features Claudio de Oliveira, from Monte Santo, who was born with his head facing the wrong way up. Despite the gravity of his deformity, his family refused to give up on Claudio and never stopped caring for him.
Claudio not only survived but has turned into an inspiring man and
popular motivational speaker who gives seminars across Brazil. On this
shoot, we filmed Claudio speaking at a seminar before traveling back to
his home town. There, we captured footage of him doing everyday things
which might seem simple to us but are still a challenge to him, such as
writing with a pen held in his mouth, using his lips to operate a phone,
eating and driving.
