Newsreel Announcer: Movietown News presents, "Spotlight on Adventure"! What you are now witnessing is footage never before seen by civilized humanity, a lost world in South America. Lurking in the shadow of majestic Paradise Falls, it sports plants and animals undiscovered by science. Who would dare set foot on this inhospitable summit? Why, our subject today, Charles Muntz! The beloved explorer lands his dirigible, the Spirit of Adventure, in New Hampshire this week, completing a yearlong expedition to the lost world. This lighter-than-air craft was designed by Muntz himself and is longer than 22 prohibition paddy wagons placed end-to-end. And here comes the adventurer now!
