9:09 pm
reporting from northwest france, tell me about why the extraordinary conversations he has had today. tell me about why the extraordinary conversations he has had todaylj think conversations he has had today.” think of a question i asked here to a tour guide who spent 30 years and more guiding tourist around here and spend a lot of that has been with a lot of veterans and talked about trauma, we know today that soldiers returning from iraq and afghanistan and elsewhere, many of them suffer posttraumatic stress in the ministry of defence, other armies on the road are trained to deal with that and trend of work out how to deal with that. he said that a few years back, he met a veteran who had spent 72
9:10 pm
yea rs he met a veteran who had spent 72 years since d—day having sleepless nights and he thought that was normal it was only during a private conversation where he told this to people that people said to them, it does not sound normal it sounds like you're struggling. he got treatment and today he is better. but he spent 72 years living with that posttraumatic stress from the events of d—day and i think for me that was in anecdote that just struck of d—day and i think for me that was in anecdote thatjust struck home on how fierce this fighting was in other today is a day of commemoration and celebration, it is also a day of intense pain for some of the another want to really think of those who lost in many different ways, ha rd to reflect hard to reflect on, how they go about their daily business in today's world. and that is what president macron appeared to be
9:11 pm
saying as he appeared for the ceremony with theresa may, first thing this morning and then he attended another ceremony in normandy alongside president trump and on both of those occasions, he made the point that the institutions such as the united nations, nato and actually the early stages of the european union, he mentioned those three institutions and they emerged being built from the rubble of world war ii that it was important alliances between the western powers, western nation and he said they should not be tampered with and that this is not something that should be tampered with in any way. and there is more about what happened on d—day and the commemorations on the bbc website and the bbc news app. let's turn to some of the major news, starting with the african union. the african union has suspended sudan's membership because of a brutal crackdown on opposition protestors by the ruling military.
9:12 pm
the au says the suspension will last psd "until the effective establishment of a civilian led transitional authority." opposition activists claim 108 people were killed by the military this week. sudanese officials put the figure at 46. and the military blames the protestors for starting the violence. the african union wants an independent investigation. here's more from au's peace and security council today. should the transition military council fail to hand over power to a civilian led transitional authority, council shall, without any further delay, automatically impose punitive measures on individuals and entities obstructing the establishment of the civilian led transitional authority the decision to suspend sudan is interesting because the african union
9:13 pm
is currently chaired by egypt a big backer of the sudanese military. it's been using its influence to rally support and previously, egypt's president abdel fatah al sisi intervened to extend the deadline for the military to hand over power. here's more from tomi 0ladipo in nairobi. the african union says that handing over to a civilian government is the only way out of this conflict and it is suspending sudan until that is achieved. but with the suspension look like? apart from sedan being excluded from the au proceedings, certain individuals seem to be obstructing the status of civilian government will be punished, but is worth noting that sudan has the backing of the current chair of the
9:14 pm
au and also the president of egypt and in 2013, egypt was suspended by the au, so the questions about the effectiveness of this current suspension. some will say that it is good to take action regardless. now on friday, the prime minister of ethiopia and the regional delegation are expected and sudan's capital with the difficult task of bringing together the military and opposition alliance to the negotiating table. this all started in december, when cuts to bread and fuel subsidies sparked demonstrations over living standards. soon, the anger broadened into demands for long time president 0mar al bashir to step down and then in early april, demonstrators began to occupy the square in front of the military‘s headquarters to demand the army force him out. within a week, he'd been ousted. but the demonstrators stayed put insisting
9:15 pm
the military transfer authority to a civilian administration. the two sides eventually agreed on a three year transition to democracy... but that was scrapped with this week's violent crackdown. there are reports from residents in khartoum that pro government militia are patrolling the streets, beating and shooting at people. catherine byaruhanga is there. the street just the streetjust behind me leads to theirformer the streetjust behind me leads to their former protest area outside their former protest area outside the army hair court the army headquarters. going out to demonstrate the civilian government. but today you can see it is quiet, you cannot get much closer because their members of the militia group and government soldiers guarding the area. but what we have learned from
9:16 pm
eyewitnesses, protesters were there on monday morning when the area was attacked is that they felt surrounded. at around five o'clock in the morning, if some members of the security forces surrounding the protest area, gunshots came in from different directions and in some cases, there were snipers on the top of buildings. they said there was chaos, people running some try to save those who are injured, but they we re save those who are injured, but they were not able to. doctors aligned with opposition groups say there is a severe shortage of medical staff in hospitals which are being inundated with injured victims. outside in the neighbourhoods, they continued to say that the militia groups are attacking civilians. stay with us on outside source still to come... a woman has gone public in brazil with accusations that she was raped by the footballer neymar. he denies the accusation. ford has confirmed plans
9:17 pm
to close its car engine plant in bridgend the latest blow to british car manufacturing. here's our business editor simonjack. you have this confusion after diesel, this very expensive process and car manufacturers are really thinking that they may, would they make and what they make it with the global alliance with. it is under capacity, it is expensive to run and it is making the wrong product, it is making the product of the of the past and out of the future. but we do know is that it has fallen 80% every year, over the last three yea rs every year, over the last three years and so it is tempting to think, does this have to do with brexit? but it had nothing to do it brexit? but it had nothing to do it brexit that they said, they would've had to close that plant brexit or not. they're looking at the future, this is an industry that is struggling to pay for its own
9:18 pm
future, struggling to afforded some future, struggling to afforded some future in the future does not look like britain will be a part of. this is outside source live from the bbc newsroom. 0ur lead story is? hundreds of veterans of the d day landings have made thejourney to normandy to remember the start of the allied liberation of europe in world war two. some of the other stories being covered by the bbc. pop star shakira has appeared in court in barcelona accused of tax fraud. she allegedly evaded paying more than 16 million dollars in taxes. football's governing body has confirmed the head of african football ahmad ahmad is being questioned by the french authorities. fifa says mr ahmad was arrested in paris, where he had been attending the women's world cup. he's recently denied allegations of corruption. that's on the bbc world service.
9:19 pm
niels hoegel is the most prolific serial killer in germany's modern history. and he's beenjailed for life. he murdered 85 patients while working as a nurse. the killings took place at two hospitals in northern germany between 1999 and 2006. hoegel gave patients lethal doses of heart medication so that he could then impress colleagues by trying to revive them. and it doesn't end there. german police have exhumed 130 bodies in germany, poland and turkey. they suspect the final death toll may be more than 200. the judge at this district court in 0ldenburg called the killing spree ‘incomprehensible', saying "your guilt is unfathomable. hoegel has asked the victims' families for forgiveness. this is what some of them had to say.
9:20 pm
we are glad that this is over now. this is the last thing we could do for our father. we have this is the last thing we could do for ourfather. we have done everything we can but he gets his deserved punishment, we did this for oui’ deserved punishment, we did this for our father. what is next is the investigation and trial of the hospitals. i hope the connection of the two hospitals will be made clear. i promise my family of the timel clear. i promise my family of the time i would not only ensure that the killer is imprisoned but also those responsible. i believe it is very important for us to bring them tojustice. hoegel has already spent a decade in prison as he serves a previous life sentence for six other murders. here'sjenny hill in berlin. he systematically prayed on the elderly and vulnerable people and in his care at two hospitals over a
9:21 pm
five—year period, his modus operandi was to inject them with the lethal doses of medication, usually heart medication which would throw them into a cardiac arrest and at that point, he would try to jump into a cardiac arrest and at that point, he would try tojump in into a cardiac arrest and at that point, he would try to jump in and resuscitate them, prosecutors think he was trying to impress his colleagues, others suggested that he was trying to play with the lives of those of whom he was supposed to be caring and today's verdict actually represents prosecutors believing perhaps only a fraction of the real number of his victims and the reason for that is that it took some time before his crimes came to light and when they did, it was that initially that he only killed a handful of patients and later investigators began to exhume the remains of other people who died at the clinic and they weren't of course able to examine the bodies of those who died and had been cremated, so is difficult to know how many people he has killed, he himself says he does not really remember, he's lost count. it is a very difficult case
9:22 pm
for the authorities, not least of course because one question remained still unanswered, how was he able to get away with this for so long? we've previously discussed fiat chrysler wanting to merge with renault. the deal was worth $39bn deal. but it's been scrapped. fiat chrysler's chariman john elkann has written to staff in a separate statement fiat chrysler said political conditions in france weren't right for the deal. but france's finance minister has tried to downplay suggestions his government was to blame for the collapse "and finally, we remain open to any industrial consolidation opportunity, but once again, in calm, without rushing, in order to guarantee the industrial interests of renault and the french nation" michelle fleury is in new york.
9:23 pm
this was almost over before it began, really. but forthe this was almost over before it began, really. but for the two companies interested in the first place? the numbers told the story, if you look at it, a combined chrysler with them would've made the third biggest car—maker in the world and overtaking general motors and i think as we heard earlier, talking about the car market, you are seeing all of the car—makers looking at the businesses, trying to decide how do they correct and make sure they have they correct and make sure they have the right level of correction today while planning for the future —— production, driverless cars, electric cars, things that require a huge amount of investment in scale, in other words, the big you are, allows you to save money on one hand and leave you with more money in your pocket to invest in these future technologies. my back but the
9:24 pm
reasons to seek it in the first place, when the news first came on here, we are about eight days ago, it is not just chrysler and renault, but many car industry executives around the world saying, are we the right scale? do we have the right things necessary? and i think this will not be the first for the last time we hear about consolidation in this industry. obviously, what is going on with trade at the moment that the impact that it's going to have, so they have that at the same time, expenses coming. the only way to achieve that is scale and that is why some people are speculating that perhaps, we might not hear the end of this deal that perhaps both sides will come back around and try and resolve their differences, but as of right now, chrysler is saying that is it from us and we are moving on.
9:25 pm
thank you very much indeed. until last week india's economy was the fastest growing in the world. but then the government told us economic growth had slowed to 5.8% in the first three months of this year. that was one of the major reasons the central bank cut interest rates today to 5.75%. sameer hashmi sent this from the reserve bank of india in mumbai. we remain open to any industrial consolidation opportunities but calm without rushing, in order to guarantee the future of renault and the french nation. sometimes the screenplays the wrong clip and that is what happened there. there's more detail on that slow down in the economy, you can see that through the website and we will come back the next half with
9:26 pm
the search into the limit to human endurance. good evening. thank you forjoining me. time for our nightly round—up of the world weather and will start with north america. it has been pretty stormy across the south, particularly around texas in the deep south, the storms have also produced a secondary storm, with ford, here it is in the satellite image, a dust storm and it is strong winds blowing out of thunderstorms, whipping up all of the dust in the desert regions we have that suspended particles in the air. these are dust storms rather than sandstorms. 0n the other side of this world, we have a dries storm to
9:27 pm
a wet one, these to the north of portugal, northwest of spain, this isa portugal, northwest of spain, this is a storm that is developing to the wet services, miguel, and it will be in parts of france and the tail end of this weather system will also affect the uk towards the end of the week, so was it going to bring? very strong winds and in the air across france, gus could be around 60 mph and those sorts of wind could cause and those sorts of wind could cause a lot of problems and bring down trees and high gusts cause power outages across this part of europe, pretty stormy weather day in the week especially in france and elsewhere across europe as a heat wave in scandinavia at the moment, temperatures in sweden have been up to around 30 degrees or so and that he is pretty evident here, you can see that kind of heat stretching to finland in the arctic, above the arctic circle in north western parts of europe, fresher conditions, those yellow colours there. on the other
9:28 pm
side, things are heading up to the monsoon, the satellite image and these are the monsoon clouds and the world's sea breeze and it happens and it heats up in india when the temperatures get especially high, the air rises and then draws an southwestern end of the indian 0cean, southwestern end of the indian ocean, and rounds of storms, not the heat is certainly evident across central parts, around 49 degrees or so in the last couple of days but but we do want is that monsoon to arrive and bring the much needed rain to many parts of india but the monsoon is late this year, it should arrive and southern parts of india around 48 hours or so, but ahead of it already, you can see showers
9:29 pm
gathering. that is the latest for me and we have to weather for the week ahead you can see it in the roundabout goodbye for now.
9:30 pm
hello, i'm ros atkins, this is outside source. 75 years ago today, allied troops began the d day landings in normandy. today veterans were at the heart of the commemorations. world leaders also paid their respects. we know what we of to you veterans, our freedom we know what we of to you veterans, ourfreedom on behalf of my we know what we of to you veterans, our freedom on behalf of my nation, ijust want our freedom on behalf of my nation, i just want to say thank you. reports mexico and the us could be close to a trade and immigration deal as president trump prepares to impose massive tariffs tariffs on mexican goods.
9:31 pm
we will be live there in a moment. a woman has gone public with her accusation that she was raped by the star footballer neymar he denies the allegation. we will get full details of the story. in the past hour we've been getting reports of a deal between the us and mexico on trade, and immigration. this is possibly part of what mexico is offering president trump who's threatened huge import taxes on mexican goods. the talks started yesterday. us vice president mike pence was involved and had
9:32 pm
a blunt message afterwards. we are grateful that the mexican delegation came forward with proposals, it was a good discussion. we welcome but the mexicans put on the table, but as the president said yesterday, it's not nearly enough. president trump is threatening 5% tariffs on monday, and says they will keep going up if mexico doesn't stop the flow of migrants across the border. this is the number of people arrested as they try to cross the border since 2000. you can see a gradual decline until 2017, president trump's first year in office. it's been going up since then. on wednesday, the us announced a big jump. tweet "in may, cbp apprehended or deemed inadmissible 144,278 individuals along the swb" — that's the south west border "a 32% increase over the previous month."
9:33 pm
it's also triple the level of a year ago. 0ne senior us official said tweet "the current situation is unsustainable. 0ur officers and agents need additional resources and authorities to confront this crisis" those figures concern the us mexico border. go further south to mexico's border with guatemala, the mexican authorities detained a group of hundreds of migrants who they say were bound for the us. some of them resisted arrest. barbara plett usher is in wahsington for us, and will grant is in mexico city. tell us more about the reports please. be seen to be some of the proposals the mexicans had been making, they had been meetings in
9:34 pm
the white house and the ministry today, and as the foreign minister was leaving the state department, we asked what was going on and he said progress that he could not get into specifics. we do understand the proposals include what you mention, 6000 national guards sent down to the border with guatemala which is where a central american migrants cross into mexico and also proposes about mexicans getting tougher with those who organise transport for the migrants up north through the country to the us border, for insta nce country to the us border, for instance they said today they froze back to account for some suspected human smugglers and does discussion about asylum status and rules, which is quite controversial but i don't think there's any agreement to announce just yet and the big question is, how much is going to be enough because president tran said he wanted all of the illegal immigration to stop, i don't think anyone thinks they can get to zero but as he heard that the vice president, the proposals they put
9:35 pm
forward a re president, the proposals they put forward are not going to do enough to meet the president of‘s demands, said that the big question hanging over that. presumably there is political pressure in washington for the tariffs did not arrive monday given lots of democrats and republicans spoke out against it. there is political pressure here, democrats but also members of his own party, and business leaders all saying it's a bad idea it's going to be back in the economy and bad for constituents, the senate majority leader has had the president should come and make his case till i make us come and make his case till i make us before making the tariffs meaning they will have to be delayed because he is not in the country only coming back friday from europe, but he's been dismissive and saying the republican senators don't know anything about how tariffs work, so that political pressure might not dissuade him from actually announcing tariffs on monday although it could kick in if tariffs are announced and they want to try to prevent further ones being
9:36 pm
raised, but i think the question now is whether a deal can be made before tomorrow, friday, which is when the white house would have to declare ta riffs white house would have to declare tariffs would be ready to go into play. barbara, thank you very much now from washington to mexico, well, you've been to the southern border with guatemala so tell us the situation there and what the mexicans are doing to handle it. the thing is, it's pretty militarized, the roadblocks are set on the main highways, they are manned by the immigration services, and military and police, so the chances are this idea of strengthening that would only be kind of augmenting what mexico says it's already trying to do. a combination of sort of carrot stick policy, carry being permission to work in southern states of mexico, and asylum applications being accepted from essential
9:37 pm
americans, and the deportation, is a stick they are higher than last year, 80,000 since december which is when the mexican president took office, said that striking the balance of human rights and decent because if you like, as these desert people from central america come through. and also complying with what donald trump is urging mexico to do, which is strength in the deportation side of things, it's a difficult balance to strike. we just heard about the political pressure, what about politics in mexico around possibility of tariffs arriving on monday. obviously they are not welcome at all, the idea tariffs, and somewhere in the region of $350 billion a year in trade of mexican products heading north. it would hurt everything from obviously the car industry which is very important
9:38 pm
to mexico, from vegetables, white goods and computers you name it, i think mr lopez is under great pressure, it's his first real test i would say when it comes to dealing with donald trump and a lot of eyes are on him, you canjust see, twitter isn't always the best example, but high—profile commentators saying he really needs to act firmly at this stage. the general sense we want to work together is not cutting the mustard, set great deal of pressure on her desk on it to stop by thank you both very much. scientists in the us have captured the first images of cool gas orbiting the supermassive black hole in the centre of our galaxy. the hole is called sagittarius a and sits around 26,000 light years from earth, right in the middle of the milky way. this row of telescopes placed
9:39 pm
in the atacama desert in chilly detected the rings of gas. lena murchikova is the astroner who led the research live with us from princeton. great to have you on the programme and thank you for your time. tell us about the telescopes and how they work. they are spread around the this is a 16 km, imagine 16 km and cover it with a piece of fabric, and open little complaints here and there. you still have the size of 16 km near, but it still has all the
9:40 pm
capability of wonderful machine assisting kilometres, that's how it works. get a bunch of antenna spread across the distance, and use a smart technique of creating the signal and figuring out if there was relative to each other, you can get the image which is a hole of 16 km. where you surprised by what the telescope discovered? i was in a sense because we are expecting, i was expecting to put a limit on the amount of gas rather than seeing such a clear rotation from one side to the other because previously, we expect the presence of the desk in the centre of the galaxy, but we actually had never seen in rotation of the disc itself, and its at first a trace of
9:41 pm
a patient at the desk. telus by those who are not an expert on black holes, why rotation matters and why they gas it matters to our understanding of the black hole. we have a black hole in a centre of our galaxy, this is to us meeting its the only black hole we can study in fine detail because there are others but we cannot track each individual stars around them. the important pa rt stars around them. the important part of the life of the black hole is how it is. and what material falls into it and what is expelled. so the workings of the black hole is actually the workings of the material that are getting expelled so we are tracing the gas, which is the likelihood of the black hole. brilliantjob of explaining it, thank you very much on the discovery. more online.
9:42 pm
stay with us on outside source still to come... how far can you push the human body? scientists have looked at athletes competing in some of the world's hardest races and thikn they've found the limit. tory leadership candidate sajid javid has said he would chose to leave the european union on 31 0ctober without a deal if the alternative was no brexit. 0ne one of the big question this is how hard—line they think that 31st of 0ctober would be prepared to see living by day no matter what, even if we can get a deal even if it means leaving without a deal even if it means leaving without a doubt, we had borisjohnson it means leaving without a doubt, we had boris johnson and it means leaving without a doubt, we had borisjohnson and dominic rob saying they would be prepared to do that but not dedicated so much that
9:43 pm
icame to that but not dedicated so much that i came to commit to living with idabel, sajid javid tonight saying he prefers the idea of meeting with idabel at the end of october. and that to the idea of cancelling brexit as well, but it's interesting how it is on top of that, i asked him what he prepared to categorically say the uk leaves on the 31st of october and that was not his answer, he did not say categorically he weighed. the gentleman behind you this question around the comments that are using on british muslim women, i think they are wrong, i don't think those are the right thing and any serious politician should say or use that language like that and i think it's wrong. there has been a bit at a debate in the party over the last 25 is about the idea of corroding
9:44 pm
parliament basically suspending it to make sure it cannot block no doubt, it's something that dominic rob said he was not reeling out. i have to say the reaction to that has been critical, the speaker of the house of commons saying it's now going to happen, and in some sense gloves are going to happen, and in some sense gloves a re really going to happen, and in some sense gloves are really coming off because sajid javid tonight says that ideas nonsense, another candidate rory stewart saying it's unconstitutional. this is outside source live from the bbc newsroom. 0ur lead story is? hundreds of veterans made the journey back to normal to remember the d—day landings 75 years ago today. the leaders of britain france and canada and united states paid tribute at the commemorations. a woman called najila trindade has
9:45 pm
appeared on brazilian tv with accusations that she was raped by star footballer neymar. he strongly denies the allegation. here is ms trindade speaking to sbt brasil. i had the desire to be with neymar, everything went well, the messages were all cool, i thought it was going to happen. only, when i arrived there he was aggressive, completely different from the person i got to know in the messages. najila trindade filed the allegation against neymar last friday. she claims that the incident in a paris hotel last month was "an assault together with rain". was "an assault together with rape". another video emerged in the media at around the same time as her interview. it appears to show ms trindade lashing out at neymar in a hotel room. she appears to be slapping the footballer and telling him it's because he'd attacked her the day before. neymar is seen in the clip apparently attempting to defend himself using his feet.
9:46 pm
in response to the allegations neymar posted a long video on instagram with his version of the story. the video included a whatsapp message exchange with ms trindade. mastercard has suspended an advertising campaign featuring neymar until the situation is as they put it "cleared up". but he already has some high profile support. here's brazil's president jair bolsonaro. this boy is going through a difficult time but i believe him. this is bbc brazil's fernando duarte. the case of fire is what it is, it's an allegation. if an allegation of rain that there needs to be a judge and investigation and although what's been happening is every jurisdictional is being messed up with both parties venting on social media, and at this point it's important to know as well it's becoming an issue of where brazil stands in terms of gender rights.
9:47 pm
with a country very divided with a lot of males saying oh, its a case where football is being exploited by a gold digger, and a lot of women rights advocate saying it's showing the blight of landing in brazil especially of the victims of alleged sexual crimes. it's a confusing situation involving the biggest personalities in brazil society in recent yea rs, personalities in brazil society in recent years, and not a quiet one as well, neymar is very active on social media even to his own detriment he has been suspended before about making referee comments and about other people, he is to date enough intelligence i so she's not shy of the kind of promotion, however when he starts leaking information about a court case, things have very different. so a lot of resilience will be looking at this case as a test case for what the country and how the country will deal with that situation and it does

not help that the brazilian president goes on the record saying he believes a football player. welcome to the current —— current brazilian society. thousands of lawyers have marched silently in hong kong against a controversial bill on extradition. the proposed bill would pave the way for fugitives wanted by mainland china to be sent across the border for trial there. here are the protestors, many of them wearing black. they marched from the court of final appeal to the government headquarters, where they stopped to observe a three minute silence. organisers estimated that up to 3000 people took part, which would make it one of the city's biggest demonstrations in recent years. let's hear from one of the protesters. this bill is so rushed and illogical no proper consultation whatsoever and no human right protection in the bell by law, so to enable the judges to decide whether that requesting country is up to standard of human
9:49 pm
rights. china argues that without the bill hong kong would become a criminal haven. but many say those sent to mainland china will not receive due process. the city's last colonial governor chris patten said the bill is an attempt to "remove the firewall between hong kong's rule of law... and communist china". he also said the plans are a "terrible blow against... hong kong's position as an international trading hub." here's our reporter laura westbrook. it's rare, it's the fifth time it's happened at but also the biggest protest by lawyers in hong kong, and they don't come out very often because they don't want to be seen to be interfering with the city politics, and the only, if they see that something is going to affect the one country to system policy, and the chairman of the association says at the light is passed it'll be one country. and what he is saying is that when it hong kong was handed back to china and 97 there was a
9:50 pm
policy put in place called one country to the systems allowing hong kong to add a separate judiciary and independent autonomy and freedom china does not enjoy it, and if it is to pass to, that would basically erode the freedoms hong kong. the reference to the justification from beijing, what's the hong kong government position is that of so the hong kong government says we put safeguards in place and they say it's only going to be a serious offences like murder and kidnapping and stuff like that, they have scrapped economic offences, they say that now and will be sent to the extra guide extradited if they faced death penalty and they also said thatjudges will be the gatekeeper of extradition request, but that's where people have a problem with that because they say that it's actually going to put a lot of pressure onjudges actually going to put a lot of pressure on judges because of hong kong's close relationship with
9:51 pm
beijing. so what happens now, these two positions don't fit together. there is another protest happening on friday, it's one of the biggest protest a nd on friday, it's one of the biggest protest and they are expecting more than 100,000 people so many are saying it'll be as big as the 2014 i'm proud of that rep protest, and one thing —— umbrella protest, one thing i want to say is how quickly this is being pushed there is what people have a problem with. normally live like this will take about 14 months, they would be a process of consultations with the bar association era law association which has not happened so people are upset the how quickly it's being pushed through and that's what they are protesting as well. american researchers at duke university have worked out the ultimate limit of human endurance. and here are the results. they say one half times the body resting metabolic rate.
9:52 pm
they say it's capped at two and a half times the body's resting metabolic rate or about 4000 calories a day for an average person. in the long term, our bodies can't sustain anything higher than that. here's the lead author. we think that boundary, the lengthily humans can do are ultimately governed by how well you could take calories in and we think that because when we look at reality are we look at triathlons or longer longer races it's from —— the amount of weight people is, and across an appointment people maintain body weight and not lose weight in these events, is about what calories a day for anything more intense than that, they cannot maintain body weight and burning calories that even if they are stepping theirface burning calories that even if they are stepping their face of high calorie food, but cannot take it in. you heard it right, he referred to 100 mile marathon has a shorter race, which some people have a different view of these things but
9:53 pm
a nyway different view of these things but anyway on we go. scientists wanted to know what effects extreme racing can have on the human body to do so, they studied athletes in some of the most challenging races across the globe. one of them is the race across america. athletes run nearly 5000km from california to washington over nearly five months. that's an average of six marathons a week. the results were published here. scientists found the longer the event, the harder it is to burn through calories and that pushing your body beyond is only possible in the short term. let's take the tour de france. cyclists used 4.9 times their resting metabolic rate. while a marathon runner competing injust one race used nearly triple that. and some women may not be surprised by this next finding that being pregnant pushes the body to nearly as much as some samantha fa nshawe is an ultramarathon runner. she's currently organising racing the planet this is where athletes run in four 250km races in different deserts. without doing the formal study aerosols, results coming out of the study is not 1
9:54 pm
aerosols, results coming out of the study is not1 million miles from what i expected. starting with the further you gallons u go by looking at the number of calories you looking at and taking into and at times, your normal resting body rate makes a lot of sense over time. was interesting is that lots of people involved in extreme endurance events will tell you it's a lot about mind over matter, but clearly there is a limit to let the mind can do. there certainly is a limit to what the mind can do but i will say that is more of a limit on what the body can do, the mind takes a certain person to push it beyond where it thinks he can go, but with the body, yet to be more careful because you have to stay within the safe grounds of how far you can place and how much you can select our little you can drink and etc when it comes to the physical side of things. now that we have learned more about the limit of the body, i guess inform it what you would put into your body to do well
9:55 pm
and when it in terms of what and when you eat and what and when you drink? and absolutely best to an extent, but i think the study does not change any of that. it's only that your body can go so far, it doesn't pass eatable field going in the timing in cabelas and also feel it's going in. and the right types of fluids as well, so i think that's probably more known about how much you need to take in and there is about how far you can keep on going with that amount being put into your body. we shall see you next week, thank you for watching, goodbye. hello there, i fear making out our plans in the coming days it's worth staying in touch with the weather forecast because things look u nsettled forecast because things look unsettled and at times, very uncertain. through the week ahead, one thing we know is that the jet

strea m one thing we know is that the jet stream at that moment is guiding its way south, and the dip in thejet strea m way south, and the dip in thejet stream with the spin up area of low pressure kind of deep for this time of you are having our interaction to bring some heavy rain and unseasonably strong wind. 0n bring some heavy rain and unseasonably strong wind. on friday, we start off the web across the southwest corridor of the british isles, the rain slowly spreading north across england and wales, heavy thunder in the afternoon as assigned by southern england and private wells as well, not an island in scotland staying predominantly dry for much of the day, it turns increasingly breezy, quite windy in the far south as a temperature is more disappointing for this time of year. the area of low pressure arrives and moves north very slowly, as we move into the first half of the weekend, since osiris and long spells of rain particularly close to the centre of the area of low pressure and around the low we have a brisk wind and wind gust of 50 mph
9:57 pm
across place in england and wales on saturday i could well have an impact on some outdoor activity, dry weather and spells us in china's of the sunshine is allowed but this temperature is just 12 or 90 degrees. the love finally starts to drift away northeast as he going to sunday but it's still close enough to drive some shower activity through the second part of the weekend, showers perhaps a long spells of rain at times, particularly northern half of the uk, not as many as i was further south more dry weather in spite of the sunshine, wind is lighted by this day temperatures not hire may be just getting up to 20 degrees across price of the southeast. the pressure not too far away as they go into monday, this frontal system is through the northwest and i could gather shower activity and organising them into longer spells of rain at times, but there is a lot of rain at times, but there is a lot of uncertainty in the detail by that stage, daily beast of the sunshine but the temperature is still disappointing because the wind comes

from the north or northwest, we look like keeping that is generally northern lands into tuesday, the pressure close by with high—pressure building and, a complex weather pattern again there will be showers and places, perhaps long spells of rain and sunshine as well, wind relatively light at this stage, coming from the northern direction, 12 degrees in aberdeen may be 19 across price of the south. later next week, complex weather pattern continues and that complexity is what brings a lot of uncertainty because computer weather models preferred when the jet stream moves west to east, instead it looks like this, idip west to east, instead it looks like this, i dip in thejet stream here, will spend its self into the cutoff level, separate area of low pressure, but spinning somewhere to the south of the british isles bringing showers debts when influenza but also looks like high pressure builds its way and is a
