i think it's been hacked. what do you mean? this hot tub is on the internet like thousands of others in the country. let me introduce you to the guys hacking it. there is andy in glasgow. hi, andy. hi! it looks cold up there. very windy. so andy, to prove you can take remote control, turn the pumps off. look, no hands. that's the blower. now the pumps. and they're off. and we didn't touch a thing. andy, thanks very much for the fountains, i think you owe me a glass of champagne. merry christmas! so ken, can we hack somebody else‘s hot tub? we can hack thousands of these tubs anywhere in the world. who are they? they live here. so let's go look at kerry's hot tub in south wales, he tipped us off about this.

hello, kerry. how are you? boys, hack it. oh, yes. nice work, guys, nice work. so how does it work? well, there's not enough security on the mobile application that you control the hot tub with. because these are online. that's right. and there isn't even a username or password to the tub so it doesn't check that you are you. the fact that it's online and there is no authentication means we don't know who is trying to control whose hot tub. but how do they work out which one to attack? so, the only address you need is that of the wireless card inside the tub type and believe it or not, you can find those addresses on online war—driving databases like wiggle, which is a free source of information. that's public? yep, anyone can call in there. they can work out your hot tub, where it is and if you are in it or not, because the pumps will be on. in a statement to click,

balboa water group, whose app connects to hot tubs, said... wow, hacking hot tubs. no—one wants their hot tub hacked. least of all the company. they didn't see that one coming. no, they did not. we did that as a bit of fun for christmas. but there is a serious point to it which is that this year, we are going to get stuff that connects to the internet more than ever and if you don't take security seriously, then the companies that are providing these products, it seems to ask that they might not be taking security seriously either. so what do we do when we unravel our internet of things things? just once, read the manual change the password, don't leave it to the default setting because you will be more secure and it is important because once you get through to one of these products, you could get through to one or another or another. then it could be your computer that they get in. do it, or turn your bubbles off. this is a boeing 7a7 flight simulator. it has the latest computer—generated visuals and it's been painted

to look like heavy metal band iron maiden‘sjumbojet ed force one. why? because it's owned by iron maiden‘s lead singer bruce dickinson who is himself a trained commercial pilot. the question is, can i learn to fly one of these in under an hour? that might depend on the quality of teaching. and it looks like my like my instructor has turned up. yes, it is iron maiden‘s bruce dickinson, an absolute aviation nut who liked being a pilot so much, he bought the company. cardiff aviation maintains aircraft and trains pilots. walkie, walkie, walkie

across the magic drawbridge into...another world. he has 6,500 hours of commercialflying experience. he is taking us up... away we go. ..and i'm bringing us down. what is it about flying that you really love? 0k, look out the window. look out the window. 0k. it appealed notjust to the closet engineer in me but it also appealed to the kind of romantic artist in me as well because you get some odd things when you're flying across the sunset, and the darkness is curling over the top of the plane like a tunnel, and it'sjust this incredible metaphysical moment. it's symbolic, that you are above light in the dark. it is getting closer to the mind of god.

you know i have a feeling that i've just been sung to. time for me to learn where everything is and everything does. turn that knob left, until it comes to 270. look out the window. we are banking left somewhat. you are commanding the aeroplane to bank left. no way, i had no idea this is how you fly a jumbo jet, by twiddling these knobs. select flaps five. flaps five, captain. jolly good. ditto, you're getting the hang of this. iam. do what you say immediately. you have to be a certain disposition to be a captain because when they come over the intercom, they sound calm and professional, that's part of the training, isn't it? i have no idea? i secretly think they're (bleep) themselves. theyjust don't let on. flaps ten, please. flaps ten. thank you very much.

finally, night falls, with the press of a button in the simulator, and it's time for me to try and land the beast. so you're flying it. so that's telling you to go left a little bit. left a little bit. just follow the magenta line. the clue is, don't fixate on looking out the window. you will cock it up. excellent, you are absolutely spot on on the left—right.. just down a bit, there you go, excellent. oh, my goodness. excellent. you are really close to the runway, you are really tight so these directions are going to be timely and precise. simulator: 100. just a couple of things but that the line... 100, 40, 30, 10. there you go. getting the nose gently into the runway. 0h, ladies and gentlemen! welcome to heathrow. terminal 666.
