Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.

Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain

Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
The Fabulous World of Jules Verne (Czech: Vynález zkázy, lit. 'destructive/deadly invention') is a 1958 Czechoslovak black-and-white science fiction adventure film directed by Karel Zeman and produced by Zdeněk Novák, that stars Lubor Tokoš, Arnošt Navrátil and Miloslav Holub. Based on several works by Jules Verne, primarily his 1896 novel Facing the Flag (with which the film shares its Czech title), the film evokes the original illustrations for Verne's works by combining live actors with various forms of animation.
The film made its North American debut in 1961 through Warner Bros. Pictures, dubbed into English and retitled The Fabulous World of Jules Verne. Soon after, it was distributed to 72 countries around the world, where it received widespread attention. It is considered the most successful Czech film ever made.A 35 mm film print of the original Czech version with English subtitles was shown at film festivals internationally during the 2000s, and had the on-screen English title A Deadly Invention. In 2014 to 2015 a digital restoration was made which included the reinsertion of a cut scene not included in the film since previews in 1958, and now both the Czech version with English subtitles and the English-dubbed version are available restored in high-definition video internationally under the title Invention for Destruction.
