These Documentaries Deserve a 10/10 Rating According To Some Reddit Users
Watching documentaries is a great way to consume knowledge. It is easy, comfortable, and gives you a good amount of knowledge in a compact period of time.
Doing it regularly will grant you access to a decent amount of knowledge about a lot of random topics, and that is always a good thing to have in this day and age. Managing to land on a good documentary that lasts for several hours is the greatest feeling in the world, especially if it manages to get your undivided attention the whole time.
But you can't always get that lucky, sometimes you have to dig deep to find something worth watching that will not just waste your time. A Reddit user who goes by the username u/tandyman234 asked the r/AskReddit community "What documentary [they] would rate a 10/10?", and they got some pretty interesting suggestions in the comments that are definitely worth checking out.
Scroll down and check out the various suggestions Reddit users commented on OP's original post. You might be able to recognize some of them if you are a regular documentary viewer, otherwise, that means more and more suggestions for you!

Some documentaries are so good that they draw you in entirely and captivate your attention for hours on end. You can try to stop yourself from watching it in its entirety but you won't realize that it is over until you notice the credits rolling, and by that time it's already over for you.
The Reddit users above gave some pretty good suggestions that I will definitely be checking out very soon. Now we all have a full list of documentaries that can binge watch at any moment. What a time to be alive!
