the owner of this beer bottle on wheels is a man working thirst for life yet he's more ready for death than most because this is the vehicle martin brunch wyler plans to take to meet his maker. but strange but now it's very comfortable you know it's i know it it probably it probably seems. i don't know spooky for some people but it doesn't but doesn't worry me i think you know it's it's something that will happen to everybody so you have to just. it's a reality you just take the rough with the smooth. gear has played a major role in his life he owns a brewery on the isle of man thirty years ago his brother built him the perfect car by converting an old citoyen into a beer bottle on wheels it's famous on the island then brunch wyler heard about a company that produces custom made coffins. it is

a work of art and i feel very proud to have this is by it's by far of the i love i love the fly things as well so. it's not like luxury. he had his custom coffin made six years ago. you can see it's been made by a craftsman all the individual little details of the world. everything really these little with screen wipers the mirrors i love that. it's all being painted by . the unusual coffin was crafted in nottingham here coffin manufacture of vic's fern has created several hundred unique designs under the name crazy coffins together with his colleague john vause designs and builds these models which are bound to turn heads at the cemetery this is going to be an airplane

a handmade original like this costs between one thousand and thirty five hundred euros i think the most technical one is the rolls royce. because obviously all like even the mood gods we had to make foremost to to bend the ply round and cramp in the glue them and then when the glue drop we could take them off and foremost so a lot of work went into that. in the store room there are copies as well as original models waiting to be used the coffins help mourners identify what the dearly departed loved most in life or what his or her unfulfilled dream was. that guy ordered this was a big but poor fan football club logo. is very much alive and has been on quite

a few exhibitions with this. but not every coffin has an amusing story sometimes the coffin makers get choked up especially when it comes to children. was a young child's musical instrument. and then you know that the child has suddenly passed away and we didn't have very long to make. it it's quite sad. john goes has yet to make a coffin for himself but he does have an idea in mind. if i could maybe one probably be a ferrari racing call i mean to ferrari's. but yeah maybe one day maybe one day i could make myself on the phone. at first martin brunch while there was hesitant to tell his wife about his funeral plans but then he created an exhibition about his brewery and wanted to exhibit the conference.

but wife doesn't like it she thinks she thinks it's morbid she doesn't like to think about these things i like to think that when i do go they'll be a bit for everybody over friday with those so i'll make sure that there's plenty of beer available but i just think it's nice if we could. just make it is as easygoing as possible he's made his final arrangements but martin hopes to be around for a long one here so for now the beer coffin is for demonstration purposes only. so what would your special coffin look like we want to know just go to our facebook page and take part in our survey now one weekend quite a short period of time to discover a european city what all its facets but most visitors are on a tight schedule so it's good to know before hand what to do and you're a max report of mag and lee will show you how to have the perfect weekend this time

team cathedral. i really enjoy progs a lively atmosphere especially here on the old town square. statues that honor progs historic figures can be found throughout the city like this the eleven meter tall tribute to the writer. franz kafka it has forty two moving parts they're constantly in motion so it's difficult to take photographs. my culture to is a museum dedicated to the czech artist alphonse mohawk he's best known for his stylized and decorative theatrical posters of french stage actress sarah bernhardt . all this walking around has made me quite hungry lumen v.q. restaurant is popular with tourists and locals it's even got its own microbrewery manager of latin maryon show is proud of his country's dear tradition. i seem to be

on board with the likes of germany oh and that's quite a statement. for french beach for sun on beaches or public assistance if you drink more views i only know how many types of beard you have here just moments or ten all right i certainly can't try all ten so i think i'll limit myself to just three. now it's time to try some of that hearty check cuisine the portions are huge i'm having roast duck three kinds of dumplings and another beer this is definitely my calling area to prague i'll really be able to sleep well tonight. day two begins an essential emperor charles the fourth for trade as the founder of the city's university my tour guide points out that charles also had the bridge built that was later named after him. and these

windows represent a darker chapter of progs history to finish the book prague defenestration marked the beginning of the protestant bohemian revolt against the catholic caps. it also marked the beginning of the thirty years' war in sixteen eighteen zero zero zero zero for the. i have seen prague castle from a distance and now it's time to head up there but why walk when i can travel in style and really nice in horse power hi lucy what have we got here this all time for all the yelling but all right sounds good let's go do. this district on the reverse left banke is called mama stronger or less her town drives through the old brick streets towards the castle i could write around like this for hours but we arrive at our destination in fifteen minutes. in.

prague castle is the largest castle complex of its kind and today it's the official residence of the czech president. visitors can walk through a series of inner court yards to arrive at same view this cathedral. numerous bohemian kings have been crowned here. not far away is one of prague's most popular streets the gold lame name for the goldsmith's who once lived here. my must see sights are the charles bridge and prague castle. giving crystal is famous around the world american designer karen feldman has been working in prague since one thousand nine hundred ninety four for innovative designs and popular throughout europe what makes bohemian crystal really unique is their talent for engraving so lots of countries can flow they can cut but the czechs have the best thing grey verse in the world my

shopping trip for a great souvenir is bohemian kristoff. i've had a busy day so now it's time to relax here in prague you can not only drink beer you can bathe in it. even put the beer on side of the. and i'm also going to hold inside to make sure you can smell it if you want to it's a combination of essentially sugar and a little bit of carbs which is basically the same mixture that we use for brewing the beer so there's no alcohol but you can drink beer if you want to hear about it is my specialty of and it's a relaxing way to top off a weekend. delicious or disgusting that has a lot of where you are in different parts of the will different things are considered tasty the surprising things people eat can be seen in moamar in sweden

in a place called the disgusting food use you instead of financial and steak and you will get a vomit bag because if you're feeling brave you can taste the exhibits yourself so it might be a good idea to have this back and. and. sooner or later every visitor to the disgusting food museum reacts this way but exactly what triggers someone's gag reflex varies from person to person. and slaughterhouse in the sweetest city of the museum exhibits eighty two disgusting dishes from around the world including twenty six from europe such as maggot infested italian cheese. juice scottish haggis and chinese my swine. like the taste i guess you guys and over the place the real thing out. there is fruit bats and salty licorice from sweden. who want people to think why it's

my favorite food here it shouldn't be here it's not disgusting but everything is normal for someone all right we're going to open. the filipino egg where the duck feeds us inside so if you got there around a bit we're going to open it then you will get to know a little bit more about the egg. says the duck egg that you're mature for this version of between five and seven days so it's mostly going to be a joke and then a very small foetus usually you eat this in the dark because people want to eat it they don't want to see what it is who would like to be first it seriously it's not about. this there we go. oh sure the good taste tests are a major part of the museum's concept. here people are trying an icelandic specialty . or for a minute shark. will slip and they actually urinate through their skin so the flesh

is full of eureka acid so you have to bury it for three months to make it ferment and to get rid of the euro gases so once is fermented this is safe to eat if you eat it without fermenting as poisons that it has it's most poisonous it is more guns so it's just like you're right. you. know. i don't know. if this is a. much milder than what i expected actually. very like oh. my gosh this move. does taste like just smoothes. fried fish. the disgusting food museum in maleness aims to help visitors overcome food prejudices and learn more about nutrition. and the museum in southern sweden certainly hold some surprises in store. i was most is surprised to see one of

my favorites turned this from my hometown here but some will find it so disgusted was for me that's and it's amazing because it was not so much about the taste artist know that some titles like that seal that if it hurts in a sale and then you like the way you make something that's the way tastes are so now i've learned a couple of things of my own country that i didn't know existed my sister told me that. in every market they sew this frock jewels i had no idea her sister. and visitors who possibly acquired a taste for baalu tag or for a minute shark can even take some home with them. for once not and his whole report is journey. if you want to know how acts of primo business survive the disgusting foot museum after tasting the dish of just go to our youtube

channel you tube dot com flash t w you're there you will find plenty more crazy reports from all over europe can you guess what instrument this is. actually. on in every one of bars martin still got from northern germany was planning on building something called a different the result was an instrument of quite spectacular proportions. many guitar sound of to tell giant could tell made entirely of stainless steel and brass it's almost two and a half meters tall and weighs fifty seven kilos monson staccato is the man who built it. for the experience and i wanted to experiment and see how much of a difference the size would make what would a guitar that big of sound like for someone who has. the time to tell it doesn't

just require lots of cleaning and polishing it's also challenging to use you need a ladder and a wrench to chin it. just making the instrument took full months. first i drew up a plan and i got a guitar measured it and decided to build it one to two point four and reproduce it to scale later. then came the top parts which thickness do i use for the ribs you could make how do i attach the strings. due to its size it takes at least two musicians to play the cello and could tell. as much if it's from. but a big challenge to the distances are long and it's hard on your fingers because you have to exert lots of pressure it's just different welcome of us.

transposing the guitar into the studio is also a major undertaking martin still got normally makes when. the giant get turn is a one off piece. to create it he sought out at you tell make it but he still faced huge challenges like the welding scenes which had to be exact. in the first sound was such a joyful moment a feeling of wow what is this how amazing. in the studio the huge guitar really comes into its. digital is this the individual sounds so he can play around with them later on the computer.

the bass the duration of the vibrations when you hit a string. it vibrates a long time and that is such a cool feelings. one thing's for says martin struck up a giant guitar gives new meaning to the term heavy metal. now too so to roll and all that it'll do you can enjoy the mountains in many different ways skiing is of course first thing that comes to mind but how about a visit to the loo in a brand new museum. at an altitude of over two thousand meters you will have breath taking views of the surroundings as well. jumping into the abyss. conquering the summit. scaling the sheer cliff face. they're all snapshots of the breathtakingly beautiful void of the mountains the new

loom and museum on the complex peak in south to roll presents the history of mountain photography the museum purchased on the edge of the high plateau giving visitors a panoramic view of the dollar mites and select our alps the cold lots was recently named the most popular alpine ski resort of the twenty eight hundred one thousand winter season. sound to rowley an architect galahad my connection to turn the old cable car station into a cutting edge museum with its own restaurant. who i was actually quite restrained with the architecture i made use of what was there and simplified the form of what they danced there was to me that i was consciously trying to restore these original forms that are typical of our alpine regions i don't think the camelot's can handle anything else. inside our magnificent vistas and spectacular displays the mirror room brings out the colors and

structures of the mountains and repeating images. this is a hands on experience. a giant iris diaphragm in a station's former boarding area serves as a projection screen. exhibit includes photos from around the world. such as mount fuji in japan. mount kilimanjaro in tanzania. glacier bay national park in alaska and mount chi lashing tibet where people have a very unique relationship with the mountain as museum director to. adams explains in down there. and in other cultures mountains are very important because they possess a certain sanctity and i think they're often equated with gods. man callous and too

bad for example is a very well known peak reachable by pilgrimage tracks our idea was simply to collect these sacred mountains they rolled over from national geographic's archives and to display them here on panels and after that he and senior. in europe mountain hikers began taking cameras along in the mid nineteenth century one was. a france who climbed to one blown with his brother in eight hundred sixty two back then mountain photographers had to carry heavy equipment and then have the hordes come out there has to take along a wooden camera and make the exposures and glass plates they took the chemicals with them as well as a tarp to set up a makeshift darkroom so then of course there was the tripod there until about two hundred fifty kilos up the mountain and that's been a victory. lap had. by the late one thousand nine hundred tracks in hikers in greater numbers but mass tourism really hit in the one nine hundred fifty s. . most travelers feel that local dishes are part of the experience

the alp in the restaurant inside the museum serves up cuisine in every sense typical of the region is barley result and alpine pasture cheese. the mountains can be experienced with all the senses on south heroes corn plants in a feast for eyes and palate surrounded by the vast panoramic view. was often out but do check us out online you will find lots of reports plus information on how to win our xclusive your americans watch thanks for tuning in and. see you again next week all the best from me and the rest of the team bye bye . from better.
