5:30 am
tend to set. the scene of when the train. starts december 25th. a 20 metre cliff a couple of ropes freezing cold water and me trying to cope with all of that i did make it down in the end but this outing with a couple of guys really had me testing my limits and that's precisely our topic this week on made leaving the comfort zone i'm chris caldwell welcome we don't want
5:31 am
to be bogged down with details do we it is the result that counts well sometimes it's the details that unveil an inconvenient truth take meat production we know that for us to be able to slap that steak on our grill and animal needs to die often enough in anything but a gentle or respectful way our reporter and added meat lover decided he wants to leave his comfort zone and does want to know how the sausage gets made literally a word of warning the report contains scenes some viewers may find disturbing. i am going to slaughter one of these animals they belong to vendor. he farms sheep the traditional way his family has been doing this since 750. his sheep are out to pasture for most of the year. but it's hard to find enough grazing land.
5:32 am
in. the sheep need about a hector hector a day that is given talk. every day yes a hector for $700.00 sheep. so this whole field is only enough for today. when they've had their fill the flock will go home to the farm. i hope they won't so i'm going to slaughter. oh yes this one is bigger it's 6 months old and weighs about 40 kilos. and. i had no idea how quickly they grow. i really don't ever come to this. i'm
5:33 am
grappling with the fact that we kill animals so we can eat meat and then i'm going to kill this lamb 1st we have to take it to the slaughterhouse. you really can feel for the kilograms. it's a 10 minute drive nothing in comparison to the lengthy journeys to the slaughterhouse that livestock often face marco care will be by my side throughout the process he's been a butcher for more than 10 years and he only slaughters what people bring him for their own consumption like this lamb that i've bought. there was a light for you the 1st time. yes the love you don't forget the 1st time i had to leave the room it was all a bit much. not because of the blood but the fact that an animal is
5:34 am
dying. video as the voice you don't really grasp it until you see it and when it's done you can't on do it. but we manage the shop. yourself. marco shows me how to use a bolt gun. it destroys the sheep brain and it won't feel anything afterwards. all locked up in the one hold loosely and then press once. that's that was it. that's like a real gun. yeah. and now the lamb's head is in the firing line. on his. own like
5:35 am
it was the. highest point to draw a line there. think of a chicken fingers away think of it now. go. ahead and pull the trigger. yes the. knife slicing through all the way. and again this is not an. that's a lot. that's a lot of blood. but. that was it it's over.
5:36 am
so i was us. it's all happening so fast. i think on it. i've killed an animal. but. really. but that was just the 1st step we're still a long way from having any charts or sausages. first cut off the head then the legs
5:37 am
and the pelt that's easier than i'd expected. does this isn't mass production. not everybody can get a lamb like this now. that's true but that's what makes it special. and it's what makes it sustainable people approach the whole thing in a different way especially with an animal like this. you know. we still need to get rid of the guts. now it's left to hang overnight that makes it easier to process. i think what happened back in that slaughterhouse. 4 ever be. the noise. the smell. but it's the only way that
5:38 am
sustainably eating meat is actually possible because doing this in the masses of me today is absolutely impossible. but still for me. i don't really know if i'm ever going to walk into a supermarket again and be like yeah i'm going to eat that meat. the next morning it's time to harvest the meat we've worked so hard for. taking the carcass apart isn't any easier it turns out. and there goes this was. about 20 kilograms of the lamb are lost in the process mainly the pelt and the guts .
5:39 am
that looks great. how about a sausage for starters. i'm not going to lie this is really really good and i don't feel guilty about it because the lamb had a good live and good death and i'm not turning vegetarian but it's only for special occasions when you slaughter animals like we used to do 100 or 150 years ago and like we just did you also need to eat meat like we used to 100 or 150 years ago that means only a steak week and that's it. oh my what a day for a quarter leaving a comfort zone doesn't always happen voluntarily people losing their jobs because businesses are suffering under demick restrictions now that's
5:40 am
a real problem but maybe this crisis can also offer opportunities entrepreneur ernest darko might have some advice for you even if you're not into large scale house systems development like he. career pandemic has really turned the world upside down. so here are the 5 tips to boost your career in the context of a pandemic. is really important to focus on things that you're passionate about even if in the overall sense of your career it's hard to find thinking because no one i grew up in a situation where health care was always poor clinics or overcrowded have or through medical career realized that if i really want to make a difference in virus i need it yet dr our systems not just many years later here i
5:41 am
am basically running a company that is focused on helping countries. that large scale a certain easy to get a bed to go to that job to get to that. you're the man getting. the guy. to. give him a ticket or an earlier career than 3 might dependent for example on seeing people and we know that according to law can at least in or it definitely impact your career 'd or your profession. oh to that assessment really quickly to understand whether it's a minute or create opportunities for you. if there is an opportunity in trying to figure out our country and work yourself into that after chidi surviving innovate in order to meet this new demand yet accuracy and person but i still manage our power connect innovate. team needed the
5:42 am
opportunity so developed a screening out for example that community workers who go to the door to do a career screening could use to capture their screening and the result of the screen. for the country to commune with yourself back to using technology to allow you to innovate music technology to allow you to meet the new opportunities that are presented as opposed. to work. so technology and they can change in many cases you know now kitty kelley's of it allows you to be accessible. in a way that probably might actually be better than preprogramed. avenue for the career things people changing. everything from having 1st wave to 2nd wave to learning new things about it then change it's
5:43 am
a policy environment then changes the rules you're reacting to the right way if you maintain your clients if you maintain quality and you need to take satisfaction. i know in the south africa luxury to be in a position where it came to all these things because some people who know the t.v. out these options against him that you can i think. that you do so and i've seen some amazing examples out of people doing this and in fact not only surviving every but actually thriving in the context of all of the challenges that are coordinating this project. readjusting your career can be difficult no doubt particularly if your plan was to have one of the coolest jobs ever flying
5:44 am
a plane but we know the pandemic has been an utter nightmare for the travel business the global airline body says air traffic this year is expected to be 66 percent lower than last so it's been a huge mess for the sector up to this point and even with bookings slowly recovering german flag carrier moved tons of has suggested that would be pilots in its prestigious flight academy might have to rethink their plans. flying free as a bird at the majestic landscapes it's an appealing prospect for many the video is about look trances pilot training program in the united states are a favorite with lucas time 22 year old moved to braman a year ago with his girlfriend to start his training at the european flight academy a lift hamsa groups training school in germany. now they're packing up and leaving
5:45 am
braman in march the course was suspended $700.00 would be pilots were left hanging for lucas it's been a very trying time. they just kept stalling and putting us off 1st they said the course will start up again in may then in september then next january. perspectivism says it's also unclear it's time for us to leave. we can't keep paying rent for this flat that we came to blame and so that i could become a pilot and say i could go to university. but our time here is now over. after many months in a kind of suspended animation with the training museum or wouldn't it lucas and say i made the difficult decision to give up and go home. isn't it has we had a plan when we moved to. this was going to complete his training. and now we're leaving again and he hasn't completed it. it's like running
5:46 am
a marathon and turning back half way and never reaching the finish line. you. look tense or germany's biggest airline was brought to its knees by the collapse in air travel caused by the pandemic it was saved from bankruptcy by a 9000000000 euro bailout. half its fleet remains grounded. the head of live to answer aviation training staff and. can shive says the airline has 1000 pilots more than it needs fixing for our student pilots quite candidly that the prospects for becoming a pilot are very very bad right now because of the covert 19 pandemic and the financial situation of the loved ones or group or we're losing $500000000.00 euros every month it's our duty to be open to the students and tell it like it is. most aviation industry analysts say the demand for pilots after the pandemic is hardly
5:47 am
likely to soar they don't see air travel picking up significantly and till 2025 most of the youngsters who have had to hold their training need a job to get by. calendars now was in the united states when she heard the course had been suspended. now she's back living with her parents in lights and working at an amazon logistics center. it wasn't easy but i have to take apart matic approach i knew i couldn't just sit around to do something and it wouldn't be a bad thing to make some money you don't earn i mean a thing as a student pilot that's on the contrary it's more like burning money. many student pilots now find themselves in a precarious financial situation. they are by far not the only group of people in need of work as the pandemic has been suing look down measures shattered entire
5:48 am
industries. because either of the people who work in tourism or food service are coming to us they say either they need a job as a stopgap measure or they want to change careers entirely. kalyan business says for her working at amazon is temporary. she's not given up her longstanding dream of becoming a pilot. she remains as committed as ever. given i absolutely still want to fly i'm not going to give up on my 3 it's i'm good within me and it's not going to go away. because that will come that's florida i flew all over florida it was fantastic. and then suddenly i was back in whole germany. i can't imagine doing anything else. so i have to find a way to finish my training just to sing. us
5:49 am
a lot if need be with out with to answer he doesn't want to. remember. the enthusiasm may be great but facts on the ground are not encouraging. look thompson has recommended it students actually give up rather than wait for the course to restart if they complete the program they're going to be charged $80000.00 euros and they won't have the guarantee of a job as used to be the case. lucas his father christopher hi i'm is appalled he's been a pilot for 32 years. ago 31 sounds to me rather like coercion if i agree to terminate the training contract everything will be fine if i don't want to fulfill my dream huge sum of money comes . i don't like that i think it's dishonorable. it's
5:50 am
quiet and empty at the european flight academy in braman this is the 1st time lucas time has been inside since march. he too remains determined to become a pilot despite the difficult conditions prevailing right now. though he says he doesn't yet know how he's going to do that but i would like is for them to say when we restart pilot training we'll take you guys 1st or that they at least start a fire test results yes. but look to answer has not made any such commitment. nor does c.e.o. cost inch bore have any words of encouragement to the students. he's already indicated that look tanso will have no more work for tens of thousands of its employees. and undergo multiple dushku downs with all professions and
5:51 am
old german universities there are no guarantees of jobs in the future and that is the case here to aviation remains a fascinating industry for young people too but i think we have to face reality in the years ahead there are going to be too many people for the jobs available to anybody planning a career in evolution to take this into account. this isn't working all. the pandemic could end the dreams of an entire generation of would be pilots. of the 22 ideas brought dread the stress and disappointment sure but there are exceptions e-commerce has seen an unprecedented boom and with people haven't 2nd thoughts about standing in line a crowd of malls trade experts believe online shopping revenue in germany will be up almost 20 percent this year my colleague feels christmas is not about the press
5:52 am
it's what we make of it now more than ever. by the christmas of this what we make of it. my. whole hall of joy. 0000 really way too. crude. is. where the good spirit a d.v.d. . when christmas comes with the grace of god this is my fault is he thought of the holy. kreager art is that you go what are you doing here you're fired how about
