Every empire falls. We film the autopsy.
Magnatefall is a business documentary channel about the rise and fall of the world’s biggest fortunes.
A new documentary every week
Every week we release a new documentary on how a business empire was built and how it collapsed. Some stories are about billion-dollar frauds and Ponzi schemes. Others are corporate scandals, bankruptcies, or tycoons who lost everything. And now and then, we tell the rare legendary comeback.
Built on the record
Each film is based on court records, official reports and major news sources, so you get the facts behind the headlines: the money, the power, the mistakes, and the people who paid the price. The articles on this site follow the same rule. Every key number sits in a Key Facts box, next to the full documentary.
