in 60 minutes d w. welcome to the but is the gate here going to tell these. things to talk about. greed that's all we. really don't want. to do is give. you. more of the stunts coming up in just a moment welcome to your mags and if you're wondering why i'm dressed like a stereotypical bavarian it's that time of the year again in germany is what's

coming up. october fest chinese style how the beloved varian beer fest is celebrated in the city of qingdao and how an architect from south to old brings a new modern architecture into the mountains. as a kid you often have all sorts of weird and wonderful fantasies that parents usually tell you achievable but whether it's flying around in a bath tub or making a hovercraft out of a dinghy the so-called real life guys have built it and shared their inventions online the 20 year old german twins phillip and your highness macon baca have gone in a massive following on you tube with almost 1000000 subscribers so they've actually been able to turn their crazy hobby into a full time job we went to see what else they've got in the works.

does it make an baca is stopping by to pick up a few bread rolls at the bakery. and. 'd see the homemade flying bass is just one of about 20 wacky inventions by the hip to twins who call themselves the real life guys this time 22 year old philip and your highness mick and back i want to pick a children's paddle card against a compact car 1st came out a motor on to the cart as always it's wrong to do it yourself. we've never had any training along these lines we've taught ourselves everything we know from you tube tutorials or google that our father helped out a bit 1st converting bicycles and stuff. the workshop is actually your parents' garage near frankfurt. to fix the pedal card so it can carry the weight of an adult the brothers are extra steel framed the motor is battery powered.

the problem was that an immense amount of current flows through here so the controller exploded on us it took us ages to find a motor and controller that are actually made for that much current so i just hope it doesn't go out on us again when we tested. the twins began posting their d.i.y. inventor videos on you tube in 2016. now they have the support of sponsors for most of their projects ideally the real life guys would like to motivate others to get active. nowadays many people just sit in front of their computers and never do anything outside like they doing something yourself away from the computer is to look 1000 times better than experiencing it virtually. care you tube channel now has over 940000 subscribers enough. for both of them to make a living from it even quicker engineering studies they prefer the practical side of

things. designing and building a motorized $360.00 degree rocking chair for a. we took it to a skate park once and wrote it down the ramps that was pretty spectacular we really almost got sick doing that. i. think. this contraption also raised quite a few eyebrows and this is our summary it's the best known invention but also the most dangerous thing we've ever built. here's a hole where lots of water comes and i try to hold it shut but it doesn't help. that was close. sometimes we do dangerous things but we always try to assess what's

too risky and what we can try and that's a lot of the happened here we had a diver along an oxygen tank inside and a cable hooked on behind so it was pretty well secured. on to the next challenge the pedal card is now fitted with a 20 horsepower motor and ready to go. on it will be racing his brother philip will be driving a 90 horsepower compact car this we're on this newly built road to race against a fabia i'm really excited but i think i'll make it the acceleration on this is really sweet but the top speed not so much we have to get off to a good start. on the method and all her. friends often help they stack up a wall of boxes at the finish line 200 meters down the road. on your mark get set go.

and. congratulations. how was it what do you think i never believed it would accelerate so fast it was very close the acceleration is fantastic but i couldn't keep up the final speed for long i mean at 1st it takes off but at the end i realized how much faster i was going it was close. we had to make it more powerful yeah. these twin inventors aren't worried about the. out of ideas their next plan a flying car. about to an inventive repurpose saying of a very old and established resource these branches from a willow tree since the stone age they have been used to make baskets among many

other things when they're soaked they can be bent into shape quite easily and that inspired a british artist to use them in her cruft have a look at the stunning sculptures of laura ellen bacon. it looks like thousands of twigs all intertwined with this is no natural phenomenon it's a sculpture made of willow switches hand-woven by laura allen bacon don't let go is the sculpture's title the artist created it in coventry central england. it just helps people all see their environment in a different way that's terrific hopefully people are. maybe just question initially whether it's is or whether it is a natural form or whether it's. just a level of intrigue is something that i like to bring to an area. the

sculpture takes shape from the core outwards beginning with the 1st loop then laura and bacon ties knots and leaves the willow switches on to it always in paris. the only tools i use really is. on fire of hope teeth but otherwise it's just it's just one hand but it's quite a jump for motion media lots of the work from the shoulders actually if you hold the willow quite likely. you move it through the shoulder was. the artist has been making her sculptures for 20 years now in green areas as installations on buildings. or inside. she allows viewers to touch them and makes them big enough to walk through an experience 3 dimensionally. laura ellen

bacon grew up in county darbyshire in the east midlands where she still lives and works she's been fascinated with nature and creating spaces since she was a girl. well i started making things when i was about 11 because i just used to enjoy taking myself outside and. having them i ended up building a tree house which was the very 1st tree house was built with very thin. very thin pieces of wood which i was actually as it happens able to weave around myself. she starts every sculpture by soaking the switches in water for a whole week that makes them rubbery. lorelle and baking discovered them as a material when she was studying art she developed the techniques herself.

the willow how long fibers that went all the way from the base through to the tip and if you give them a bit of a twists as you burn. the fibers. give. you . twist that into the shape. in her studio she only builds models the sculptures themselves only take shape at their final no creations 1st she sketches what she in visions. the work is always designed for a particular place i do a lot of sketchbook drawing some time in between or jawing the process. i really enjoy working with charcoal this is well and charcoal which is mind from the same woman with. the artist adds the final touches before she leaves don't like gone at the mercy of its environment.

if will be a natural habitat for insects while ever i've been making all of my work i always see their tiny little spiders that move in 1st of all often then you see little birds that come and they feed off the insects that so it's a bit of a cycle it's really great actually when you feel that it's made a home. a creature or and i don't know. it's a home for creatures and the vision from a dream lawyer alan bacon wants to bring humans and nature together with each of her creations. now let's finally get to the reason why i'm dressed like this today it's october 1st time in munich once again around 6000000 people travel to the bavarian state capital every year to drink in the culture i'm just course the beer bottles there

are actually copycat festivals all over the world and we've been travelling around to show you the most unique takes on october fest. today on the chinese coast in the city of qingdao enjoying a spin off of the bavarian beer fest. and . the beer festival variant through true with a chinese touch the port an industrial city qingdao celebrates a colder fest every year several 1000000 guests come to this reproduction of these regional grounds in munich i mean look at. more or less authentic it sounds quite different. but. i. think the studio beer festival is the world's largest october fest knockoff. called to give me more to

see john otherwise. this is the 10th time for it sends out working the chinese a tobar fest so it's the highlight of the year your hometown. at the qingdao beer festival going for a lot to me as a local i see the october fest here as our greatest pride actually it's the pride of all chinese. here's your beer. 2017 cents our realize the dream of hers and went to the of tobar fest the new nick she still talks about the customs and traditions. but one thing impressed her above all else on the 2 of them what surprised me most of all was the strong servers who can carry so much beer at once i saw one with 8 stein's at one time. here's the photo. when i got back here i try to myself but i can't manage any more than 4

glasses using both hands what they told me i still have a long way to go. and this has you had it about that. beer is every bit a part of ching does october fest every guest drinks a number just one these are almost as much as patrons of munich but you won't find any german brass music at. the loudspeakers blurr chinese pop you sick on lots of techno. the food is also adopted the chinese tastes the prop was comes across a little bit sweeter than the grilled chicken. been replaced by octopus on a spit. over $1400.00 fridays appear from all over the world are offered at the festival but the favorite by far is the local qingdao beer

that embodies a piece of german chinese history. in 1907 the germans occupied the chinese city and developed it into a trading base 6 years after the germania brewery opened the germans themselves may have not been popular in china but their beer certainly was still brewed according to the old purity love under the name change out. the beer and the de coeur do resemble munich october fest the lighting visitors from you with the original if you don't like the germans the atmosphere and spirit in germany are great and of course world famous german beer too. is what i like most here is the beer on tap from jingo it tastes exactly like kurdish it makes me feel like i'm in germany even though i'm inching down to what. the chinese celebrate the best in summer this year a total of $7200000.00 guests came the partying reaches fever pitch in the evening the busiest time for. coming up. james o.

works into the wee hours of the morning. even with its differences there's one thing the revelers at munich's and china's october fest have in common they all party like there's no tomorrow. a city tour on all forms. gumby hardly even a. new hobby coddling. easy happy grumbling funny cat job leaseholder together their pasqual burlap the series with marilyn arbeit. on facebook dot com slash d. w. gen x. . now we move up into the mountains and meet a pioneering architect when it comes to the tricky task of building in the alps

venit soul is a real expert is ambitious projects of 100 international acclaim and into n.t. 16 he was named italy's architect of the year is designs are truly unique and we had the pleasure of meeting him in his element for a personal tour of his work. the team was york pass the scene of hard and groundbreaking work more than half a century ago the high all pie and road connecting austria and italy was opened here architect very near children knows how extreme conditions can inspire extreme feats especially when those extremes are in nature. indeed in this magnificent landscape look around and you'll see everything's a sculpture and you can't respond to it with architecture all architecture fails so we try to respond with sculpture to it's. like a great stone slab come to rest charles pos museum just saw it from the barren rock

a 2500 meters elevation protruding into south to roll from austria it's a borderline experience in stone. i think is the architecture is always communication it's there to look at and to bring people closer to the land and make it comprehensible 1st and we have for example when someone walks through this building and looks out from the other side of the view they get a very different view of the landscape here. and if they stand here and turn around in a circle it's not at all the same as looking at one perspective through a picture frame so to speak in this way they experience the landscape more intensely. then a troll regards the mountains the way a movie director might. in fact the south to role native originally wanted to study film directing. he calls himself a minimalist even if the feelings involved are monumental. i think joyce

architecture is emotion pure emotion there's one single idea one single concept to a building and it shapes every last detail. then a troll has designed 6 truck chairs for the 2 movies your experience as a. called along the alpine road. another of his projects was dedicated in autumn 2018 on the south to raleigh inside the timo transit museum it was a revival of a historical building. and we were dealing with an old customs office building from the 1960 s. that's how it functioned and now it functions just as well as a museum but it's hard to speak a functioning. i'd almost rather say form follows landscape landscape. the architect avoids putting up entirely new structures he's seen as a master of revitalization his work on sigmund sprawling casimir built on

a home made his name far beyond south to roll his futuristic concepts have also drawn widespread attention. completed one of his boldest projects in 2017. he built his own private residence high above luck where he was born. with this i get a house designing for your own house is different from designing for someone else or for a contractor designing for yourself always means pushing the limits of what you're able to come up with i was thinking on. a wrapper around last facade allows the house to blend in with its surroundings the landscape is the star here nothing architect. and i don't feel the world if you make a mistake it's your own fault. for someone else you can't experiment with certain things that be a problem. so these are things you can try out on your own house. is heist

they say the craftsmanship suffers on your own house some things never quite get finished and. that's the case with these holes that are part of the concrete structure. i'm sure i'll think of something more artistic down the line to make them look better and seal them up. you know you always see your own mistakes you never achieve perfection you can always come up with something new and improved things and that's the motivation to one day really become a good architect so that's the dream. in spite of his modesty very natural is trying nothing less than to alter the image of his home country with his architectural ideas. and you can find plenty more on the topic of alpine architecture on our website www dot com slash lifestyle including a 360 degree video allows you to explore every angle of vanity shows how.

now we travel from the italian mountains to a french valley that some motto has given us many things including one of my favorite sayings knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad its motto is probably the most popular ingredient in european cooking so why not celebrate it a shot so in france is the setting for a yearly tomato festival which was established by a prince who was fascinated with the fruit. and. the astounding versatility of the tomato is put to the test once a year at the festival. or the festival of the tomato in flavors it's telling that the shuttle bodett yeah in the water valley in your tour de france i don't live here but we have 700 varieties in our garden but the tomato festival is

held here because the shuttle is a center of diversity and it's right in the midst of france's garden and the war ideal for reaching lots of people the people. the new renaissance chateau with a park and vegetable garden with purchased by the former investment banker prince louis al bad deploying in 1901 this is the 21st festival here diverted especially to the tomato. at the mouth fixated tomato is simply extraordinary. it's eaten almost every day would you never guess how multifaceted it actually is. there are a good 36000 varieties of tomato in the world. chef said to be will be showing us what can be made with black cherry and green sebring tomatoes . he'll turn these black box

heart tomatoes into a main course. my thought is they're good for our final recipe we'll use a very nice black box hard tomato to make tomato steak cut the tomato into pieces one to one and a half centimeters thick so now we have a nice big or make steak lay it carefully in some sizzling oil at a bit of salt fry it on one side and then the other. let it cool down slightly. just now top it off with a bit of raw onion. if you will put it. and to make it even tastier and more italian add some parmesan cheese also. there were. among the many products in here is tomato beer and these long plan is a local brewery because it took months of experimentation before he could take his

1st sip but only. some of. the beers taste is mainly a result of my cooking tomatoes 1st to concentrate their flavor. you have to consider that the tomatoes are very delicate fruit very subtle. and it's very difficult to capture that flavor. here. and countless for writing creative ideas and the chateau in western france those are the prime in gradients for a very special tribute to the tomato. i thought sweat your appetite you can find more inspiration on our you tube channel did your max check out our video on 6 things you can do with tomatoes that's all from us for the day i'm off to find a beer times and up.
