10:19 am
isn't loretta from italian south to rolled to build the wolves. only natural track for most of the year these bob run, experts good as builders and carpenters. there is a one to work on this project. have to love cold weather, otherwise than things get tough. peter gum knows all about that, but my mouth, so you definitely feel the cold in your body. it freezes your no russia, your cheeks feel heavy and speaking is difficult. inch via a cold can get pretty brutal here on site. last a she'll get out of my i'm making the wall of the overhang above the curve so that the bumps letters aren't in danger of flying off the track on the corner due to the high speeds. lauve. how's the crawford often hawkish? really cut out a complete building. a natural track is a work of art for the perfect club run. the snow is made artificially with
10:20 am
a snow gun. although it's created without chemicals. it's mixed with water until it achieves a putting like consistency there not to actually have who the natural said no wouldn't work as well as material for the tract. so because it's too soft, you can't take as much pressure or the same load, the fuss of cushioning, artificial snow, soaks up the waters, it becomes heavier, softer, and then easier to work with. thought about the them as it's a whole of water. it freezes, lots of this and can keep taking the strain kind on him of i thought of either and blasted them. that's how the oldest bob sled track in the world is gradually rebuilt, year on year, just a few weeks before the world's best right is a d to crash down the course. i've read knows every centimeter of the track. he's worked on it since 1981 and owns the sacred note book containing the rough cools. the rest is about judgment, instinct and experience,
10:21 am
which he has in spades pursued with hard. it is quite old, additional fits the pizza note book with all the measurements is at least 20 years old. thoughts fuel? how to thought homer. we have various measuring the points. for example, the red deluxe. ok. second, the junction box doors to shore caution it onto the hydrant is further forward. don't go home, right? so we have 5 measuring points in the portal. go corner. what's the home when both, there's some leeway it doesn't have to be down to the centimeter. but if you got the measurements, it makes life easier throughout the life work. oh, so how did all this begin? in 1885, a group of brits built the 1st ever ice track between krista and somewhat it's the crest to run. participants slit downhill head 1st and face down on sleds known as christos, full years later, another bridge by the name of wilson smith tied to slaves and a board together with string. and so the 1st bobsled was born. this created
10:22 am
a rivalry between bob sled and krista uses of the press to run became to tie for the heavier foster bobs. they needed something new. ah! so in 19 o 4, the 1st olympic barbara was built. meanwhile christus letting became known a skeleton. zakowski meat was 12 when she 1st tried the sport. now she's one of switzerland's best skeleton talents. ah, fair, loud as oath, they used to be made of wood. now our sleds are all steel and carbon, but they used to have a cushion. now there's a neoprene layer you painted by, there's the board to lie on and you can keep yourself steady with your douglas to face these to have holes on the sides, which people use to keep stable. doubtful le, here once is gothic gal? i
10:23 am

10:24 am
a finger of of this. and let's see psycho in the last 2 bands before the straight into horseshoe. you can prepare yourself like okay, his whole shave or shore for farm for me. he says it's very important to me because i respect how difficult it is actually to make the slide knows when you're scared. come, then you can end up sliding them. then you try to find your position again and done . then you wait, but the corner come. so fast tom's dying dish, honestly so chanel in the strait, you get up to 80 kilometers per hour. i'm 100. mm. so yeah, i fled and the other builders are working on horseshoe corner. now this is who i can't wait or hopefully it'll work out. yeah, i mean, does you have to build it for me for the world cup. for d, v m. hands the dust. can you tell the radius just by looking your say more or less on that call? it's not a 100 percent over. ok. mark, when it's i see
10:25 am
a dog milan rush run for i you can see it better and i'm on fire. dish fancy misnomer physical. the only reason why when my siding can are you know exactly what you have to do in the corners and you feel it too high. when i go into a corner, i know i have to do this stuff. when i'm at the highest point. i know i have to do that, that my total m. o m manuel see metal cake binging core. when i see the word out of the corner of my eye, i know i'm high enough for doubt. frequency stuff holds done by then i'll be ok or then proceed minutes. the greasy her you're more still have to reach a certain height in the corner or fast. if you're too low, you'll have problems when you come out of the corners, fucking off my horse or gun keeps mazacco knows that all t well, right, so, so exactly, i know i've tested that theory out. unlike a bobsled, a skeleton sled has no steering all brakes. pilots navigate with their bodies at 130 kilometers per hour. i'm listening for me. you stay mostly with your head and
