-Thank you so much.
It's very, very nice to see you here.
Yeah, I want to make sure these guys have front row --
front row seats here.
Who did you bring with us tonight?
-Well, I brought Mr. H., who's my mascot, and I brought Steve,
who's Disney Nature's mascot for the new movie.
-Steve, now -- so, Steve we know from "Penguins,"
but I don't know Mr. H.'s story. What's -- he looks fun.
[ Light laughter ] -Mr. H. Was given to me
29 years ago, for my birthday
by a man called Gary Haun, which is why he's Mr. H.
Gary went blind at 21 in the U.S. Marines,
decided to be a magician, was told that was impossible.
He's so good that the kids don't know he's blind.
And then he'll say, "If something goes wrong
in your life, don't give up, there's always a way forward."
He's been with me now to 65 countries.
-Is that right? -He's very famous.
[ Light laughter ]
I'm sorry, Mr. H., yes. How could I not re--
[ Cheers and applause ]
How could I not -- I should've said, "Hi."
I'm sorry. I didn't say hello and shake your hand.
Hi, Mr. H., thank you for so much coming on our show.
We really appreciate this.
I just love everything about you,
obviously everyone here loves you.
That's why you get the standing ovations,
[ Cheers and applause ]
Everything you do, and everything you represent.
I just want to share this, 'cause last time
we didn't get to -- I didn't get to show you this.
But in my house, I have a hallway going down the stairs.
And I have on my wall paintings of different portraits
of people, and cool people that inspire me,
and things that inspire me.
And this is my hallway, and then on the corner over here,
[ Audience aws ]
So I see you every day of my life.
[ Light laughter ]
And when I walk down the stairs, and I bring my kids down,
and I tell them who you are, they know who you are.
I have a five-year-old and a four-year-old,
and they know you who are, and they know what you do,
and they love you.
I just want to say thank you, because --
-Oh, that's terrific. -They love you.
I love you, my wife loves you.
So your message is going to go and live forever and ever.
[ Cheers and applause ]
Let's talk about -- -I have to kiss you for that.
[ Light laughter ] [ Audience Aws ]
-Thank you so much, that means a lot.
Can we talk about the Jane Goodall Legacy Foundation?
-You know, we have the Jane Goodall Institute
in 34 countries. -My goodness.
-And we're working to conserve chimpanzees
and their forest habitats, but other animals too.
And the Legacy Foundation is to build up an endowment
so that when I'm gone, and I'm 85 by the way.
-Oh my --
-So you know, when I'm gone, I want to make absolutely sure
that everything I've worked for all my life
will be able to carry on.
-Oh, my goodness. -When I'm gone.
-85, and I just -- I read somewhere
that you're on the road 300 days out of the year? Is that --
-Yes, even more now, because, you know,
when you get closer to the end, wherever the end is --
there's so much wrong with the world today,
and there's so much need for a message of hope.
Because if we all lose hope, then we may as well give up,
and we know the world's in a mess.
-Yeah. -We know we've harmed
the environment, we know -- destroying the forest,
polluting the atmosphere, polluting the ocean,
you know about all that. -Yeah.
-And, you know, we must take action now.
-Let's do it. -Let's do it.
-Let's do it now.
What are we waiting for? What are we waiting for?
We won't have anything to play with. I mean --
-All our young people in our youth program,
Roots and Shoots, in Tanzania --
-Roots and Shoots, absolutely. -Yeah, they have a message,
"Together we can, together we will!"
[ Cheers and applause ]
I'm inspired by it. I can't even tell you.
[ Light laughter ]
He says he wants air time. Tell us about Steve's film.
-Well, Steve, I mean the film that
Disney Nature has made, you know, they asked me
to be an ambassador for their Disney Nature films.
-Yeah, makes sense. -And so "Penguins,"
which is now running. -Yes.
-I think it's the best, it's absolutely amazing.
And you know, penguins can't help it,
they're sort of -- you know, they walk like this.
-Yeah. -And you just have to --
and then they trip, and then they
go on their tummies, and cruise along.
It's just --
but the photography is absolutely unbelievable.
And what's so magic about it, they've got a camera --
this is about the size of the Adélie penguin --
and they've got a camera about this height.
So when you see an orca, or a leopard seal,
you see this huge frightening thing
through the eyes of the penguin, and it's complete magic.
-Isn't that wild? -And there's some comic things,
like you have to collect stones. Rocks for your nest.
-Yeah. -And Steve goes a bit further
than he should, and he brings up these to his lady love.
And then he turns to get another one.
Immediately, other penguins take the rock
[ Laughter ]
-Because they're smart. Absolutely. Yeah.
-Yeah. -Disney's doing
a very cool thing, every ticket sold
during opening week this week, Disney will make a donation
to the Wildlife Conservation Network.
So good on you Disney, for doing that.
-Yes, absolutely. -They don't have to do that,
it's good that they're doing that.
Thank you so much for being here, as always.
Thank you for everything you do.
You know we love you, and you can come back whenever,
you can come stay all week.
You can come all next week if you want to. We love you.
I want to show everyone a clip.
Here's Steve meeting his future life partner
in "Penguins," take a look.
-Hi, I'm Steve.
-Steve, meet Adeline.
♪ I can't fight this feeling any longer ♪
♪ And yet I'm still afraid to let it flow ♪
♪ What started out as friendship has grown stronger ♪
♪ I only wish I had ♪ -It's more than just
a beautiful courtship ritual.
Steve and Adeline will use these initial moments
of intimacy to memorize each other's voices.
After this, they'll be able to
find one another amongst the crowds -- [Whispers] forever.
[ Cheers and applause ]
-I mean -- Dr. Jane Goodall, everybody.
Go see "Penguins."
It's in theaters and IMAX now.
