Watch Hannibal - Rome's Worst Nightmare

It is 200 years before the birth of Christ. Rome is the new superpower of the ancient world and believes she is invincible. But one man is destined to challenge her authority. He is a man bound by oath to avenge the wrongs inflicted on his home and, in pursuit of revenge, he will stop at nothing. Hannibal, at the age of 26, masterminded one of the most daring military moves in history. Hannibal crossed the Alps with 40,000 soldiers and 37 elephants. He marched 1,500 miles to challenge his enemies on their own soil. It was an act so daring that few people believed it possible. Hannibal was to forge a reputation as a warrior general and became one of the greatest military leaders of his time. He was to become Rome's worst nightmare. This is his epic story.
