katy perry and actors orlando bloom and adrian brody. the monte carlo gala for the global ocean was held for the second time out of the public eye v.i.p.'s come to raise donations and support prince albert. this is great what he's doing i mean his global ocean. is great at think he's taking the forefront and making their way in as big and people pay attention and be knowledgeable what's going on with the ocean of course is a huge topic in our world and it's a problem we have and we need to work together to improve. that's why it's an honor to be here tonight. here's an environmental lawyer i've been here before i went to the museum and i saw how passionate they are here about the ocean about the creatures in the ocean about the health of the ocean and i think it's in his blood you know i think it's part of his d.n.a. . following the death of his father twenty eight the third albert became the prince of monaco the tiny principality on the coast does your in two thousand and five

a year later a trip to the north pole turned him into an environmental activist he made several expeditions and founded his own environmental initiative since two thousand and six the prince albert the second of monaco foundation has supported four hundred twenty projects with around fifty one million euros. so albert the second is following in the footsteps of his grandfather albert the first who devoted much of his life to studying the seas in the oceans and founded monaco's oceanographic institute in one thousand ten. the institute's osuna graphic museum features six thousand exhibits and has become a major attraction. of the prince created his own foundation to complement the work done by the the oceanographic institute and to really be active in the field. to support conservation programs

and. to support. new political initiatives because now. the time is has come to really act and act fast. but to act fast you need money and that's where albert's more than seven hundred v.i.p. guests come in a seat at the gala costs close to two thousand euro's. week by preserving the world's oceans with preserving our own future. to the. stars like orlando bloom and madonna ensure that the auctions bring in lots of money the pop singer donated the experience of a lifetime the highest bidder gets to go horseback riding on the beach with her. and music legend nile rodgers performed live. i've always believed in activism i've always i was socialized to care about things about people about the

environment. so my heart hasn't changed just that as i get older i work in different ways like i can give money i can give my talent i can give my time. all together the event raised around twenty one million euro but it also raised awareness of the need to protect the world's oceans. the ocean is the key of life with me the ocean is like our heart is like the oceans of liquid inside of us we are above water people we are ocean people the world is mostly water it's all connected it's even the universe is a full it's like one big oceans. the gala for the global ocean in monte carlo the place where money and the mediterranean come together. and we'll stay in monaco for a bit because that's where i expressed begins today. the

the more of what was an institution in the french capital since it opened and eight hundred eighty nine international stars such as it is ella fitzgerald frank sinatra and elton john have performed there today it is the most famous variety theater in the world with a spectacular show the dancers costumes are elaborate and have been decorated with colorful feathers by the same family since one thousand twenty nine. walk with the moulin rouge really without feathers. at the cabaret in paris they're an important part of every show. and all the bones head dresses and accessories worn are made by ms unfair for a small family run business owner editor perrier and her team are experts when it comes to feathers. in a cabaret show like the moon long rouges you always need feathers rhinestones and

sequins and beautiful costumes. prune feathers a feminine and her own integral part of a cabaret costume so it wouldn't be as lively and feathers lend a woman grace and lightness. using special methods the craft of feathers the costumes. all the work is done by hand and that time consuming it can take fifteen days to create a single caster. hughes it was very exacting work it depends on the feather no two are light. each one is unique. you can't just stick them in a machine. or mass yaser been practicing their traditional craft or measure on paper today since the firms founding back in one thousand nine hundred twenty nine but they only divulge their trade secrets to their chosen successors.

knew that was our fellows our know how is a trade secret so we don't reveal how we do certain things it's always the most senior plan must ca's in our studio who pass on these little secrets to the younger ones when they start working with us. he have a version. entertainer josephine baker the ballet dancer is easy geometry. actress and singer miss don't get it and performer lydia monte beckett measure on seventy eight's creations. the feathers come from birds that are bred specially for feather production they arrive from around the globe whether it's ostrich pheasant or duck feathers mezzo on every a has them all. better costumes for the mood our rouge are continually renewed according to the original designs. here for example we're redoing all of the questions for the finale tonight at movie night on. a return to her team taylor the elaborate outfits so they fit each of the

dancers like a glass of. wine and also the dancer must feel comfortable in her costume because she has to exert yourself a lot on stage and if her costumes not comfortable it can get pretty tiring. so it needs to be really comfortable for the dancer and easy to wear. each costume is a work of art between three hundred and five hundred feathers are used to make each one. i guess i feel very privileged and lucky to be wearing a masterpiece and that to take care of the costumes something so valuable that you're wearing. it gives you a feeling inside that i guess helps with the expression when you're on stage as well. and when the lights go down these costumes really get their chance to shine

but she is proud of its long working relationship with measure on petraeus. said. this collaboration is important because without the feathers in the jewelry the moulin rouge wouldn't be what it is people come to see something exceptional and when you see these tall dancers wearing extraordinary jorian extraordinary costumes there are more than a thousand costumes and at the same time these plumes of feathers are turning and twirling it's very sensual. there ten times team are always happy to see that costumes being worn on stage. it's gratifying because even if you know the show and see it from time to time you still think wow it's magnificent. the audience is also enjoy the colorful extravaganza with its flamboyant costumes.

phenomenal show lots of feathers and mares make you sneeze a little bit so it was tremendously amusing because to do so it was just like the choreography was excellent i have never seen anything in my life like the questions are incredible i can't even begin to think about how much time and effort went into there was just an amazing thing it's every single cost. individually beautiful and very beautiful beautiful they are only part of the rounds a thousand of them. now we had to the noir nuts and i got a d. in berlin this year it is celebrating its fiftieth anniversary but the celebration had to take place on the construction side but in slumdog of post-war modernism has been under renovation for years even if there are no exhibitions at the moment one person who regularly comes by academic did lho whom he was also around in nine hundred sixty eight when the museum was first opened at that time he supervised the

construction on behalf of his famous grandfather the architect muse funda ho we met up with him to find out more. so my madame and ladies and gentlemen i'm really happy to be back in berlin. as you will have heard i regularly cross the atlantic to visit my old hometown. turkalo who has flown in from chicago to celebrate the restoration of berlin's noir nuts are now gallery which was designed by his grandfather luke figments founder roller low hand inherited ventura's copyright to this iconic building the architect regularly advises the team overseeing the renovation this is to be seen this is a bit like seeing the child you helped bring into the world fifty years ago once again fifty years later either through a leave. law hand scales the steps of a nearby church tower though he's more than familiar with the building he's never seen it from this perspective it gives him an overview of the work in progress and

that's just a sign i was there so well it's like my old home. we built architectural models of the entire site in the chicago office. it looks exactly like it doesn't reality. longhand relocated from germany to chicago in the one nine hundred sixty s. to work for his grandfather's architectural firm one of his first jobs was overseeing the construction of berlin snow and that so now gallery the commission meant a lot to his grandfather who lived germany and emigrated to the u.s. in the late one nine hundred thirty s. . he spent exactly thirty years living in berlin and exactly thirty in chicago. in berlin he lived just over van crossed the road the first rate on the left of this is his neighborhood. the noir knutsen are galleries construction was

a feat of engineering it's one thousand two hundred ton flat steel roof was welded together on side and then slowly lifted up. here. he was excited to witness the roof being gradually lifted up words and couldn't wait until it was high enough to walk around underneath it. and he went around checking if everything looked alright from below the roof was still in motion nobody was actually allowed underneath the bottom. i mean no helmet would have saved you had those thousands of tons of steel come crashing down for it but if i made sure to stand underneath an opening in the roof in case it did for my grandfather wasn't bothered. so what did he learn from his grandfather that architecture is a serious business and that ideally you want to build something that will last for centuries low hands own style has certainly influenced by me spent

a row or. only one thing by the hand at the time. off to be smoked constantly from morning till night. the room is always full of smoke that bothered me at first. and even ask me would you like to have a cigar now. now days longhand does occasionally treat himself to a cigar yet another thing he's inherited from his famous grandfather. the next report might make some of us feel a little dizzy part of this week's sport is serious extraordinary a flat tax we're taking a closer look at slacklining which is a similar to tiger walking but a lot more thrilling especially of n. korea does it the german has one of the world's best black liners he's already broken several work records he travels all over the word and slag lines in the last decade setting certainly nothing for the faint hearted.

total freedom at one with nature that's how treaty kunai prevents his friends taking up this is all an over the well. done thing between doesn't sing canyon this river isn't seen as all his senses are focused on the not. just the frequency the amount of concentration you muster is unbelievable and at the same crime your so call you just feel totally awake and alive everything feels a bit more intense. france is in this intensive on cd is you a play one of the world's best linus. here in his home town of course in hi my name munich he practices yoga to help block out disturbances concentrating on regular breathing and body tension. breathing plays a huge role in balance play sports where you have to concentrate and constantly tense and relax your body especially when you walk on long haul arms and have to

balance for an hour or two you have to really meditate your way into. the deeper the canyon the stronger the butterflies in his stomach since fredy discover it's not lining eight years ago he has practiced almost every day he prefers to do it in a tandem horney common goal it is also addicted to the sport in the great outdoors like hannity and some clam gorge south of munich meeting was afraid that taking excessive risks they trust their equipment and each other their thing is communication you have to agree on things ahead of time how you're going to secure the anchors who setting up a lot who's responsible for water and you have to build trust in each other the preparations in the middle of the forest are elaborate what's the best place to do that it's what a stable anchoring points for the hooks and rope the slack line is two and a half centimeters wide and places enormous strain on the trainees. this is to protect the trees bark somewhere sorts. i want the bar to remain as it is in

general and slacklining you want to leave us a few traces behind as possible so when explaining the loss today the line stretches forty meters from one end to the other thanks for that it's perfect to shut. it all seems very hazardous and daring to a few a but said it's no big deal almost routine heights and depths no longer terrify him. everyone has a primal fear of flies to finish but the more you climb onto the highline the more your fear of the windles now it feels like floating a metre above the meadow like it is when i practice in the park pocket of use a stream with it but it always requires the lives concentration. the wind every step the slightest movement of his torso are enough to make it in line vibrating.

summer in canada he went boldly when no one had gone before crossing a four hundred metre opinions on a waterfall. and exposed to the power of nature. can man the fish despised i know my abilities i don't have everything under control and that i've walked this line a hundred times and i can do it i'm not afraid this is all being afraid would mean that i think something could go wrong i'm more afraid of telling my mother about my free solo highlighting and that i set a world record in it than a free soloing itself will have and. he believes he's not reckless just mentally stronger and small constant than others the secret of the school which is to control your innate trust yourself and tie yourself to the slack line doesn't use is what i like to do most on the line so why does he do it. in the me idea because there's no benefit to slack mind is that you can pose yourself challenges playfully
