tarragona in the north of spain where they take building towers pretty seriously. now i'm not talking about building blocks, which is hard enough in itself. they actually make towers. i to people is an old catalan tradition. i used to do acrobatics. so i know how hard it is to build a human pyramid. i have just 6 or 7 people, but their towers can be up to 10 stories high. ah. when this is a yeah, up there, you don't have time to look down. i just look ahead. i don't think about looking down in, and i just think about the job no more. 13 year old it is like i'd bo has a special hobby. she's been climbing human towers for 4 years now. she's facing a real challenge. tarragona spain host the world human pyramid

championships called cuffs days. this is more than sport here. it's an expression of catalan national identity. 12 teens are in the finals. 1000 sunchase competes in the castile. yes, davina frank out loud music. i'm proud to be part of the custody. yes. did you franka my grandfather? my whole family has been here my father to. i've done this since i was a little boy. my closest friends are here. i couldn't give this up. when i wasn't going to wire, the human tally tradition began interrogation. in the 18th century, rival groups competed for the best shapes which over time grew tula, i'm told that the 1st will championship was in 1932 because stells have had unesco world heritage status since 2010. we took it,

but if there isn't much risk despite the highest and the impact, if you do full really rather he had impact so it or he can be there have been some serious injuries. so listen, but nothing major in recent years with me about i said, a trains the clubs children 3 times a week. she's been a customer yet for 10 years and knows what it takes to miss you. then who knows me, nemo? like you see the, if you have to be like a fastball, them in your physique decide which level you go to the. so the smallest one is to go the highest to with the fee the amounts. the competition will begin seeing the 600 members of the cast their yes to villafranca, into the arena together in the last will championship in 2018. they took 2nd place la jolla there, while the whole team has came to get in. and it's very exciting to see the crowded

stadium again. awesome. they've trained a year for this event. the plan structure is far from simple. each has a defined position. thus sanchez tries to keep track of things that i give them or tell my buyers or yeah, this is the plan of a 10 story tower we want to build on. and i gave all the whole team will inspect the base to make sure everyone is in position. i wanted to discuss ideas in order to make the castille really impressive. but i guess that's the last many. most of the teen forms the opinion of base this broad foundation stabilize was because dead all its weight rest. if the tele collapses, the base absorbs much of the impact and i was talking about what about for us down below we can see nothing,

especially when we have 2 or more people on top of internet. you know, so we're quiet and listen closely to the music. depending on the pitch, we know how high the tower when the base is in place, the trunk is built 10 stories high. everyone is fully focused. at half height, the music stock. ah ah, ah, finally, a boy climbs to the top and crowns the tower with an arm weigh luther wooded for the construction and form as well as for the dismounting, a crowd of over 6000 cheer them on. i liked the collective experience and the teamwork that the one at the bottom is just as important as the one at the top. i come every year because it's such an incredible display of cut allen culture.

they've done this because to years debina franka, a will champions in human town building for the 12th time in the clubs history fungal because when it 1st started, no one had any idea how high the castillos would become that we could come so far. what you can always try to go higher with the money so happy that we've won. it shows that all the time and effort we put into the rehearsals, paid off with because stells of catalonia, it tradition not for the faint of heart. impressive. now we're entering the world of one of britain's most iconic fashion designers. she's celebrating 50 years of fabulous fashion pop and glam. even if you don't recognize her name, you will recognize her work. her clientele has consisted of celebrities and

nobility, but what makes her stand out most aside from her bubble gum, pink hair and bright blue eye shadow is her drive to continue creating works of art well into her eighty's, introducing dame xandra rhodes. fashion means to me, my life, it means to me what we wear our life that goes on around us and it's ever changing. so it means that it's a wonderful rainbow. the i can call on the raining princess of punk is now 82 years old. xandra rhodes has become a design icon in her hometown london. she was among the 1st to bring the punk look from the streets on to the runways. she dress british princesses, anne and diana, as well as queen's lead singer freddie mercury, and other celebrities too. i had a little tiny studio in bayswater, london,

and i could pull the clothes off the rail of freddie put on the pleated top that you always think of which was a bridle to and he just looks wonderful in xandra rhodes as penthouse makes her love of color evidence. back in the 1960 s, she had no plans to become a fashion designer, but rather an illustrator. then she discovered textile design. but when nobody bought her designs, perhaps thinking they looked too extreme. rhodes decided to take matters into her own hands. yes. i started into fashion because i needed to sell my textiles, and i was a textile designer and i'd lead to print to college. and that's what i've been doing ever since. but making i then ended up making dresses or jackets like i'm wearing a skirt. so everything i do is nearly always printed ah,

nothing was off limits to sandra rose from garments to shoes and socks to home accessories. and almost every single design is stored in her memory. especially this one for lady diana from 1986. lady diana was very shy. she's very shy and i'm really lovely and you know, a lot of americans think that you just friends them. you go in and you can't see and you take the dress and you try on her. but i was very proud of her and how she looked xandra rhodes has never slowed down. she explains that her life and her work are thoroughly interwoven and an integral part of it are her sketches. i get inspired by my friends. i get inspired by going on trips and doing drawings and seeing things. so i go to somewhere and i might draw relief for a flower or

a bug. it could be anything. and you never know where the drawing lead you. it could lead to another design or it's picture and sketch blue roads has been living and working in south london since 2003 here she had an old warehouse remodeled as a fashion and textile museum. i think as a designer, the worst thing is if you think i've made it, because that's the time when this is going to be a big ho and you are going to head down, down, down and down. i think that you're always like a tight boat walker. he'll always on a on a tight rope. and that's how you have to do. you have be grateful that you've got work and people want it. in 2014, she was appointed dame commander of the order of the british empire. had she achieved the zenith of her career? she has no plans to stop. i never even considered whether i was going to get

to 80. i just, i'm lucky. i love my friends, i like my work. and i think the most important thing is to try and live every day as a crops up and, and try and enjoy it. i don't mean it's always is enjoyable. they go down. but, you know, try and think of death that way. in that way, dame xandra rhodes looks back at over 50 years of creativity. currently, she is busy organizing her vast archive and selecting parts of it to present to various museums, always with her sites. firmly setting on the future. now, have you ever taken a road trip through europe in a van? i've tried it. it wasn't for me. i like to think of myself as low maintenance, but it turns out i need a little bit of hot running water in the morning to be a nice person. but youtube are, as allison and eric feler from the states make their tour and an electric camper

which is what we're in right now. but they're also all these different types of accommodations. they have these tent like structures that look like a ton of understand. they're a little smaller cabin type of structures dotted all throughout the property, somewhat adequate views, some that are kind of more nestled into the woods. but 1st things 1st we got to get this baby charging. oh yes. the charging game begins now. and we're charging, it always starts off saying it's going to take a full 24 hours to charge, but then it always falls down to around 14 hours. so we'll see where we land today . ah, you got an all set up at our camp site and we have our mobile kitchen here out in hook with making. 6 some sort of stew, we just had a bunch of left over vegetables from our travel, so i'm gonna put it all together in this cut and make some delicious dinner. yeah, i mean how legit as this look looks like you've got a little kitchen over. so it looks like it's like allison's little cookin show just

just a beautiful city. you have all the stone streets that you get to walk through. a bickley old preserved buildings. they do allow cars, though. they got to watch after that when you're walking, talking with. when you come to the city, you have to visit the castle, which is one of the best preserved castles in all of italy. it was built in the 13th century and has a man made harbor that was actually built to protect the castle ships. ah, with i could see myself being a princess at this castle. maybe the queen. oh, no dream big little girls out there. ah no, i'm dig in this little peninsula. it's so interesting because you walk in to the castle, which seems very medieval, very european. and then you come back here to these olive trees and these ruined

and you almost didn't feel very mediterranean and it's so warm and nice out like you stepped into ancient room. i know it's wild we, we went through so many centuries in just like 10 minutes with already we are all charged up back on the road. we are going to be trading in that late life for the coastal life y'all. that is right. we're headed down the coast to the mediterranean sea to check out the 5 land chink with terry. ah, ah, looking for more euro max gone. we've got you covered, had to our youtube channel. here. we know reporters on their a done to with

tradition and uniquely and then have it don't make the drive to d, w euro matt. i introducing go to the holy grail of german cheese. okay. it's actually from the netherlands, but the germans love it. and admittedly, it's pretty darn good. guy does success story began and abusive all historic city in north holland called you guess it died up, but what makes it so special? let's find out in this episode of our theories, food secret. ah, it, some of the process is mobile for years in aging case and making a richer cheese face. cook and natural product can be so

important for a dog. down gets rich from it. it's like champagne and france or be, are in belgium. and we have to push it up with food and how that cheese it is produced on the same farm and where to cow's milk and we don't hear the milk, so we produce cheese from raw milk. i am frank complain. welcome to our cheese farm, reproduce that buddha house. gosh, real dutch gout up farmers. cheese roughly everyday reproduce between 12 to 14 cheeses, milk sour with harris and reynolds are after the milk, the 1st through and main ingredients. and then we use some little bit of extra

calcium adding, run it through mil. that's the point. when you start calling things keys, reynolds comes from the young cows, the cos in order to digest milk. the golf uses read it to flow to digestion down in his guts, in order that the wrench can do its job. the milk has to be still off an hour. the milk which used to be liquid is then solid. 90 percent of mill is water and the water we don't need in making process by cutting, we get rid of that watery part. our keys produce today will stay for almost 24 hours inside the wooden mall. a

cheese is a name that everybody knows. we speak a lot of tourists who are surprised, how god is also without. i am a current old bar school. i am sitting here in front of the how the keys experience, where you can learn everything about the keys and the production of change. ah, so it became a dirty capital of the world because how to it's situated in kind of schwab and around how they're good not grow anything but the grass. and what can you do with ross? you buy a house and they eat grass because produce milk and from the milk. you can make me right before the new jesus will get into the malls. we take that jesus out into the soul, beth, we need that to make

a crust to the keys. so that the cross dries out contains from sold and that makes it a better resistance against the mold or anything like that ever you should reproduce is basically the same recipe. the same way of doing things. what makes a difference in face is the aging over keys. so we have young cheese, 10 weeks, 3 months, one year old, 2 year old 3 year old, 5 year old, 6 year old and adult at the moment. the oldest was 7 or 8 years and the best way to eat how to tease is in the morning and in the afternoon. slice of dark red. put good real farmers butter on top of it. and that not the less slices. real. go to tease and then eat it. that's the best i'm

okay, it's time to talk about german culture. so in our culture, to be specific. for those of you still in the dark germans love there san us. complete with the fancy infusions, cold plunge pills, and as is the case in one berlin's bar under water attack, no speakers, but and here comes the twist. you have to be naked quite the culture shock for some, including d, w reporter rachel stewart from the u. k. j click oh, it's 90 degrees celsius. i'm sitting in a cramped, dimly little wooden hut with about 40 strangers and my own make. the 1st time i visited a new toner in germany, i was way out of my comfort zone. but soon i noticed that nobody seemed particularly interested in anybody else's naked bodies. in fact, if anybody was staring, it was me simply because i've probably seen more naked bodies in that 1st half an hour in the sauna than i had in my entire life. they were all shapes and sizes on display and the full range of body her. it was fascinating educational. now. the

thing with thorn is a regular pastime for millions of germans. but do you really need to be in the new to enjoy this hobby, eddie? well, why not conic illness as though there's nothing wrong with it? it's culture. oh, why? a lot of the way to has been you just wouldn't go into the sort of like close zine, so not as it's about hygiene. it's more hot, jenna, but it's unhygienic with clothes is niema. does that copper? i suppose more of your body can warm up that way so you can sweat better. oh so so it's also a way to break down area was in there monday meeting after spending the whole day at the sooner you won't even notice that you don't have any clothes on. i'm not, i'm not sure it can feel pretty liberating to bear all but the freedom is not absolute. there are strict rules that must be adhered to if you want to be accepted among the so one of the intel probably gathered by now the 1st group is no close. never to, there must be a towel between your, in the soul of it at all times. rule number 3. no talking under any pushed,

sorry, highlight. but any trip to this order is the output which translates directly as infusion. this is the ultimate sooner experience is about where you arrive at the designated time and find the spot in the sooner. there were usually 2 or 3 round, the graphically hot in between each round. you might get the chance to go outside and cool down and form an orderly, make a few for the shower. kudos to anyone who takes the dip in the ice bar. each alpha generally has a p, so the water labeled over the hot coals will be huge or something like coconut or you can if you're lucky at some point pickle, dishes of coffee, scrub salt, or honey will be on the ground. the sooner will become a hive of activity as people slab their bodies from top to toe with honey sweaty, honey. an outburst is led by a solar master. they keep order in the sauna due to labeling and perform the all important how order to watch the hot air and every quarter of an

unmatched wet session in the nude. if it's not what you're used to and sounds bonkers, but don't knock it till you tried it. it's true once you've spent a few hours surrounded by naked people, you kind of get used to it. and on that note that's oh we've got time for today. but be sure to check out our website for this week's draw and a chance to receive some d. w goodies. and of course please follow us on social media for me and the whole year, a max team here in berlin. thanks for watching and take care with
