1:08 am
nuts. i want to use my career and my platform to draw attention to the fact that we can get rid of prejudices upshaw from gun. and we can find the common ground between cultures and which is definitely there in abundance, as excites as if hulu. if you ever go to amsterdam, chances are you'll want to take a boat tour of this. it is beautiful canals may be popped by a flower market to see all the tulips. and if you're at all into art, it won't want to miss the reich's museum. that's where you'll find works by the netherlands. most famous artists make sense, right? but there are also a few things about the rights museum. bit may surprise you. let's take a closer look. ah, i'm as piece of art. my name is peter wagner myers, and we're in the right museum and amsterdam here. this is basically my home. it's my office office. my. be all the art historian shares with us 5 surprising things
1:09 am
to discover here. first of all, there is a road straight through the museum. this is here. i this here is a bike path here, rosie. i think this is the only museum with a bike path running straight through it. vague korea, it's pretty crazy, but also a bit silly. almost because you don't need a bike in the museum yet, you can ride through the museum with one my god, mid some proud voice museum. every attempt to close down the bike path has failed in the plight. crazy netherlands. in fact, until 1931, even cars could drive through my give you go through here to enter the city center or you come out of the city. so it's actually a gateway lea, i'm tor. this path also has a special little detail as 50. there's a surprise and you see it outside but not inside the museum to have that there is a secret door. i meg, i'm to you,
1:10 am
but we'll come back to that. the museum opened in $1885.00, and it's architect also planned to be amsterdam central station. the buildings are strikingly similar. the collection showcase is 800 years of dutch history and artistic treasures like rembrandts night want or the milk made by young fam. here, one more fun fact, many doubt now is that the museums rims were painted white for a long time. was my years was eat the here you see something that was gone in the 20th century. mia? the are this room here is a reconstruction of the $1885.00 original is one bus via but in the 20th century they said, let's get rid of let out because it's a distraction as so it distracts from the art as uplink up lankin than you don't need decoration to show our talk on it. and this here is justin decoration. when does this year more vehicle that soon or the foosball the lower you see here to
1:11 am
it's a beautiful floor already bought. they took it out and put wood over it. when i had my, the hotel, we began the the building was only restored to its former glory in 2013. after 10 years of work. and there is a hidden room that many overlook the library. there dbi, the library is still just like it was. the beauty not much has changed as you can see it in the staircase and the ceiling and the trapper was, it is all, everything is the way it was back in the 19th century and that's simply beautiful. notable you can feel the history here for to you dig a shifter ah, and the most famous painting in the collection has a surprising secret. that's a see the know this is the night. watch actually the money, but the night watch isn't 100 percent here. i'm hot, this optician, they cut parts of it off in the 18th century,
1:12 am
is as it was moved to the amsterdam city hall, that was when i'm saddam, and they put it on the wall and thought straight from ha, doesn't fit us past. not my head if you come and look here, my mit, you can see how a piece was cut off. i hear what i understood of christmas and not just some tiny piece either. this was about 33 centimeters later. oh, they cut a bit off the top to it and a tiny bit on the right climates. vincent gast, i had a bit at the bottom as well. hm. these. and so you're not looking at a whole. rembrandt is more like 80 percent on sizes. and tyler emigrants, i'm sick put sense the night watch was also the reason for the secret door i mentioned earlier. was 1000 feet. what you see up there is eyes on monday. the you see the brick. what these? but then this ira arch, which is a secret opening i'm to, is almost like a james bond. what kind of you can open it and take down the night. watch. i love the knocked off the not so the night watch is up there behind that trap door. a cubby, and you'd have a truck waiting down here, was my mother's name. oh. and then you can take down the whole painting in one
1:13 am
piece without having to roll it up and send it off somewhere. if you need 2 more to spin, this is that is the only ever happened twice once, just before world war 2. and again, during the museums expensive renovation. normally please transfers are here all the time for every one to enjoy. who loves flamenco, never eat supper before 10 pm and is late to everything. if you go by the cliches we'd be talking about spaniards, but how much of that is true? how much of it is stereotype? and how much is maybe a little bit of both in our segment, truth or cliche. we're asking people from different european countries, what they're really like. and this time we're meeting for young people from spain. why are the spaniards always late as
1:14 am
spanish men or women? good lovers, ah, spain, that's the southern european country where folks are always poem and go dancing, taking a siesta and eating top us. or are those just stereotypes? there are close to 50000000 spaniards in berlin. we asked 4 of them about cliches. we're here for i'm say to you, if they're most google questions about this, is that through our appreciate i was finding man woman, good lovers. 123, a 13 and to get no like, i feel like when you get on with women studies, women they, they make it difficult. yeah. to do a lot of proofs of,
1:15 am
of everything. and then we are very good lovers. thing we're focusing on the physical part or i would say so then. yeah, i would say we're get ah, are spanish men short? 123. 0 we're going to show. yeah. i don't know. done for venus plan is to over there is for so it will be like yeah, the average spanish man is one meter 76 tall in the netherlands. both the world's tallest men, one meter, 84 tall on average. right. or have dinner very, very late. so far as is not late, it's true. there's no dumped body that we do that even at 11 or 12 is super hot in spain, everywhere dry. so they are some more worth of the day that you just can't go out.
1:16 am
and so he's not very, very late. is our time. why do hispanic people live longer? we don't. i think the genes, the genetic must be good. of course, that may help there. whether it's, i mean the, the food i don't know in the food, the so healthy, bad being socialized. i think that also gives you more, more life, it's healthy. i know so that we complain a lot and this is healthy, the plane and the plumbing going away. and all these, these feeling nice gives a lot of health like seeing what you want wherever you want. and it seems to work average life expectancy in spain top 83 years only in a few countries like japan do people live longer?
1:17 am
why are spaniel always late, late is not late. and to 50 minutes from the hour we met. we decide to meet i think that's a goto thing. i don't think we're always late. i think we are very optimistic and diamond suddenly some thing arises and then we can use why our spaniards always doing ts team the afternoon. i don't, i never did. and that's a, i think that's one of the biggest cliches in spain. when i was in spain, i did whenever i caught it because it's really healthy. maybe that will help me. i think i'm going to days soon. yeah, it's good to, to recover. and i like to make a black how to reset it. why the spaniards love top us?
1:18 am
or not? say what i question, if you drink a lot of wine, you get a lot of us and you end up having dinner and drunk. i'm getting hungry. mammy, she was a good ending. well then when for yvette sham and if you're getting hungry now to this next report may be for you. fish and chips is one of the u. k is national dishes, the fish is battered and fried, drizzled with little vinegar, and served with chips or french fries as they're called in the us. now there certainly are healthier dishes out there, but that doesn't stop. 22 percent of brits. we say they eat fish and chips at least once a week. so what makes the perfect fish and chips we went to find out? ah, you love it. they just, it's just good combination. it is something that so i, tony from new york,

1:20 am
a little bit more for it when you get a better quality fillet. quite happy portion of cold and i'm just going to show you that how we portion it when you get very big portion of fish. but this you just want to take a little bit the brown. oh. and i'm gonna get some launched portions. a fishing chip was brought in by the portuguese jewish immigrants. the u. k. fishing chit started around about $1860.00 that there was fried fish on the, on the streets to london. it was mentioned by charles dick in one of his books. i wonder croak on present to the national federation of fish prize. so we look after the interest of the tenant off 1000 patients shops in the u. k. nobody knows when the marriage efficient chips were brought together. but it just is the perfect
1:21 am
partnership with what you looking forward. a good potato is something that's kind of cook up. kind of a chris, a little bit of crispin us on the outside. nice puffy, self install it. it's all favorite potato is i grill, cover the mortar and drain the water out to remove the stall to this how we may come to use this gum. we filter the water from the, from the mains and then goes through a comp unknown. so which makes it into sponsoring. and that gives you a little bit more lift. good on the little,
1:22 am
just one tablespoon. so she put 2 in these to the box of bins. feel volley, prepare a supermarket, or just by flour with could've been lifting agents. ah, pretty on temperatures efficient a boundary of $88.00 chips about right. that's what gets the back to, to expand this a flat if this thing when the poach fish is crating the right conditions. and it is all found to experience to take about 3 or 4 minutes. but most importantly, got drain or fish, to make sure you know there's, if you leave it, take it up to soon put it in there is going to drain in the box.
1:23 am
in england, good people have salt and vinegar on fish and chips, which on most place in the world won't of vinegar. there's 2 types of negotiate. got mold vinegar, which is more of a round to full of flavor, bit more shot. and then you've got numbers, condiments, which is a bit sweeter flavor, but i think vinegar just acidity that just quote, story you. so you lemon works well with fish, but i think the, the vinegar was well with the fish on the chips and it just complaints the dish. i think fishing chips has got a strong future ac, as a dish is always going to be around. they never get sick of it. still been fish and chips here in europe, people have been fanning themselves with these folding fans for about 600 years.
1:24 am
now. it was the portuguese traders who brought back folding fans from japan and china and the 16th century. back then, fans were a status symbol nowadays, not so much. they're usually mass produced pretty cheaply. but in the french capital, paris, there is still one woman who makes them by hand. and she's got more work than you can shake her fan at. ah, 76 year old on okay, has been making these stylish handheld bands with fabric and high quality materials for over 60 years. as the last traditional folding, fan maker and paris, she's master of a craft that's threatened with extinction. i someplace seem really, truly tissue here. is a selection of fabrics i used to make the fans find your bucket. i use a stencil to cut the fabric to fit demand tour. yeah, i own that puts the fan to prevent it from sliding. we always put newspaper below
1:25 am
it to show you. then we put the fabric in a mold, left so that it's easier to fold fulfilled loopy self with she can finish some fans in an hour while others take months to complete. but okay, wasn't always a fan of fans in 1960. when she was just 14, her father made her join the family business inefficiently. if i had to drop out of school to become a fan maker, she did but cycle and i wasn't happy about it now. most recently, but i took a liking to with later what she did when my father passed away, i was set on keeping the tradition alive over time. it became a real passion for me. i particularly love how no 2 fans are alike. so it never gets glimmering short. millions have seen this fan on screen for her motion picture about the former french queen marie antoinette. hollywood film director, sophia coppola commission. this one of a kind fan had
1:26 am
a cost of $3000.00 euros on or gay. also finally recalls her collaboration with karl lagerfeld. the german fashion designer was often photographed with a folding fan in hand. and shall he, when he contacted me, i didn't yet have any ideas. then we talked and he started sketching, had some trouble turning it into an actual fan, but that's what it fascinated me. that's what really interested me about working with car like a fed ah, it's on. okay. so mission to keep the profession alive from what's in me, i'd like to pass on my expertise so that it doesn't get lost to. that's an important cause for me here. but this craft is even considered part of france's intangible cultural heritage. and if it were to disappear, i would see that as a failure sucks you little more so on okay,
