i was staying in greece for now to show you the gum ball $3000.00 it's not a bubble blowing contest but rather a crazy call rally in which the rich and famous gather to show off their motors this year the route sees $120.00 teams driving from macon also to i before we went along to find out what goes on behind the scenes at one of the most eccentric and exclusive events in the world. crowds await the grand arrival athens is one of the stops on the 6 day celebrity motor rally cobol 3000. 1000000 cooper from britain just taking part in a 560 horsepower aston martin d from the russian 999. c. in a different cultures and cities and you know the welcome reception we get every city you know makes everything worthwhile as well. as a 1000000 of us taking turns to drive with his wife us rap star. ronnie is now in

its 21st year and this time the route leads from mcinnes to i beat this partly by ferry and the discipline strive for around 800 kilometers a day mostly on ordinary roads. the parties at each destination and the tag part of the events who arrives 1st the so want by the button. actors and singers david hasselhoff is one of the regulars. a lot of they resign you know me because i get them out of jail because sometimes they go to the police stop us. and i say leave us alone i mean you speeding is something that always makes the headlines and there have been serious accidents cost i think is not always received with as much humor as it is here in spain. in the book maximillian looks back at when the rally began when he was working as a model and a racecar driver. so i had this interaction with the fashion world and the

lifestyle that went with that and then the motor racing world and the same the lifestyle of that and i wanted to really kind of bring all of that together and so you know because of that fashion and the sort of motorsport background i had some very influential friends and they all liked my vision it was simply my way of getting all these people together for a week. alongside the. oscar winners there was d.j. david gets a. hollywood star uterus elba. and several times for one world champion lewis hamilton. braces this kind of all is so that real kind of street fashion. as always embraced and louis loves that i'm just here to party with the hip clubs along the way is one of the gumbo 3 thousands main reasons for success it's a chance to let off steam on the 3000 mile route that they cover in just 6 days.

the event cost tens of thousands of euros just to enter. so this is something that got interested in it like i said a couple years ago in a case that is a chance for a man or woman to get out and have fun see the world we've been everywhere showing how to choke you know. north korea. it was 2008 when the rally made a stop in north korea the results of the cancer in the battlefield the big games the beijing. government dinner in china i was sat next to one of the leaders of north korea and they had all about this dinner and presentation invited me to take it there and i thought you know what such a crazy idea an opportunity to take something like this to a country that is essentially closed off from the rest of the why not. the really

hot is cause controversy but still must get the funds from world. chad passions and shared passion for adventure for music for. these are things that embrace people more than politics to. next year's always to be new destinations for the 2020 really of such a view into. well we're staying in europe and on our you tube channel d.w. euro max you can join us on our many adventures exploring the continent here's a sneak peak. want to learn more about european lifestyle and culture. when you come to write. your own mix. going to. take the plunge to an restaurant. try. and play bridge

crazy join the race and destroy. your romance you. subscribe so you don't miss it. this is just a tiny little taste of what's to come like colleague x.l. primitive a.z. went on a day airing mission climbing between 2 mountains on a ladder similar to this one at an altitude of 2000 meters that is i'm quite glad to be in the studio today luckily axl doesn't suffer from vertigo but this challenge certainly put that to the test. my facts are shaking and i. have never done this before. the higher i can. shake your debts. and i really shouldn't

fall because there. really hurt. my day begins early in the morning at the dawn of cold and up austria. take the cable car to reach the catastrophic at an altitude over on 1500 meters it is just a 20 minute high. mountain guide he puts shows me how to use this safety gear to secure myself it'll be connected to my harness with a simple not a big object near the harness should help cushion my fall if i take a tumble. i attach myself to this 2 cable on the rock face using cherubino hooks. to let me move on or 15 like here we do it on the market like he's. now as much as she. want to and he's on

a cable and a 2nd job so. ok. has been climbing for many years and going up a few cattle starts and that's a good thing because this road is not for beginners you must be you sure footed and not suffer from vertigo this isn't the place to fall. but they carry it with a slight all of the. fixed position. of speed and then frank you immediately it's a very hard impact for one goes up so on so you. where it says yeah i'm sure you get that. song.

trust yourself. we reach the stairway to heaven. ok through some places where you want me to walk out exactly this is part of this dike i think the main part that's. ok any tube station streets stay focused on the footsteps ok normally your eyes go into the danger always your eyes will follow hey it's super hot you have to switch a little on your brain very ok stay focused on the handle foreign on this everything easy. it's quite shaky. 700. really shouldn't.

looking for. it's not a good idea. looking down is not a good idea either so. yes . but the hardest part is yet to come this really steep part of a pretty narrow range i never imagined it would be.

the finest stretch to the summit however it is a bit more relaxed and for my efforts i'm rewarded with a stunning view over the. good. stuff i mean yeah. ok but one question the way down the same way we went up it's a good point to ask here in the summer. because we can dog down the same way but here is a nice walk for it. but 1st i need a break exhausted but exhilarated i enjoy the peace and quiet 2000 metres. made it down the mountain just fine. for me. time to settle those nerves now with our series planet berlin which you can also check out
