cutting edge technology is unlocking the potential of deep sea mining. but this time, a research team will study the possible risks 1st. in order to minimize them. we have an opportunity to get it right before we can stuff, environmental activists or skeptical. after a whole, there are billions to be made. our 2 parts documentary, deep sea greed, starts to think on the w capital fines, but fictitious. and really, we were told to be careful look around if we, whatever, because we had it all the or from the cold war to today. many spice stories began and ended here. i'm so i want to flush my passport down the train toilet.

we never felt like james bond root feelings, fine hot spots past and present till only a small part of the truth. the contract, the city holds even more of the truth told in countless spine movies the the wisdom and eastern secret service is waged. a clash of titans in the name were opposing systems collided. the front line of the cold for the may for tegan is the cold war. live door to door, invalid. fine. and i'm just following up here starting in 16. so if you get this, if you need these out, when the elders are bleeding, thought a season's out soon,

the skies until he gets to isn't us on vice spies was said to look on every corner in berlin from off to world war 2 until the phone with the building will in 1999 1000000000 at the center of the secret services. why? the in 1945 world war 2 was over and the city light in ruins. germany had lost the will, is it stops at the allies, britain, france. and the us along with russia, had freed the city from nazi room. the, the pottstown agreement divided, building into for each for the soon followed the cold, who had been gone east fairly and was on the soviet rule. while the allies government, the remaining 3 sectors in 1949 to germany's were formed the federal republic which

would join nato in 1955 and the democratic republic, which would you into warsaw pact the same here. the bench on costco has been researching berlin and it spies for decades and his co author of the book, capital of spies. the break comes around to 1947 when it was obvious that the nations that going in different directions for berlin, wisdom, east germany was the beginning of the code forward. and that's a point also where the intelligence collection started to get more intense. with the late and was now in ireland surrounded by you need the the queen sentenced testing for spies. the leading was the only city where this situation could be seen. and obviously this geo political offered for all for

intelligence. and therefore, i would say berlin is the capital of the coach or a journey through secret island in search of spies, the dock side of the global c. c. we meet full. i'm a spies with incredible stories. we were told to be careful look around. but there was no special training now to recognize that you were to the high school gym in t a t thought you spoke to a filling fixed. i know more important in 1961. the cold war heats up dramatically east. germany built a wall between east and west berlin. that's like indian because he's going to mention piece of golf items item to the host. i found it to be coming. let's the best customer when buying. building was split into an east germany or guns to shoot

of friedrich straus a check point between east and west. berlin was a place of surveillance and the espionage. the stalls. a monitored who left the country and who met with their eyes and ears were almost every way the sketch at the station. the same from a spice film fills, more american venture, and the volume for the extra station was a hot spot for berlin's by network. and there was fi gateways in both directions. wanna invited this to the

the strategy was formed in 1950 and conducted for an espionage well monitoring, east germans as well. it could not dissidence and operated its own prisons, a line in the us. in spite y'all, nearly 3000 people were hired for the m. s. s. and the 1st 2 years alone, august 8th, on the 5th, and that grew steadily until 1989, one of the one the buys. the sponsors brutality remains a source of cinematic inspiration to this day. lacking clue, a comedic series, the board is on slapstick. loud enough to own with a slender sandwiches. the lions den. the stones he will head close to didn't know mine and stross in east berlin. the museum opened to everyone,

now stands with secret was once collected thousands of files restored here, including the reports to ship. it says delivered from the chancellor's office as well as other information from the various sources the my job was to take these reports, which were evaluations and all the shades of grey within the government. i was the one who photographed everything. and then i took the night train boss, so berlin jumped on the train, went in the toilet. i had to stand on the clothes and pull down the ceiling and put the box in there. and then i went home to ship. it says would never expose join there to cause the years, but all the agents were over and over again on both sides. the,

the gleaning could bridge separates westberg and unplug stuff. then a part of east germany, the bridge became the symbol of agent exchanges. a not time went to scene in steven spielberg's film shows the cold and ruthlessness of a tough business to open the gate. the rudolf is there not the possibility that my people are going to shoot me? yeah. you're not worried. would it help the, if you knew the book is this, like the cleaning cut bridge is probably the most exaggerated by location number landlord, and then the skip tubbs safety stuff that you need help with. and with the high mile spies were only exchanged there 3 times. in 1962, 85 and 86. but it was still important in the context of berlin, the because it was used by vehicles for allied military emissions between west

berlin and public dominy. i'm the lead him this you own finish of taking a couple of the tales with once agents for the soviet k g p who also looked into the land and this quote yacht. they were trained in the city. my wife has been paying for 10 years to be assigned to sleep agents in the us. the fuel and grants. are you mind kitchen is buying is not generally recognized as an occupation of that. or you can't just apply um the, the adventure. the excitement arose from traveling through 5 countries and 14 days at some time under 3 or 4 different names. hutton toyota, a few 15 and i did 15 years with a k g b. i never once held a gun in my hand and i see you smile. you want me to buy for it in a 100 and i'm to i once flushed my passport done the train toilet, then grabbed

a new one for you to the noise. and then then i had to check into a hotel and completely forgot my new name and vision i'm interested in yet. i just have a on a hill. and the wisdom outskirts of building is the appropriately titled, teufel, sped, or devil's mountain of the americans. most important listening station was here alone in the forest on the hillside with berlin visible in the distance. the size was open to visiting its aging pooley that is still well secured. the deal is quite a one despite they could intercept radio signals here from far into poland. and then that's why the stars the and the k g b took it very seriously. i'm to know what they were repeatedly able to install their own spies, their thoughts if you want to in some you so you heads up to

1200 people there and we shift 8 our system. and those people were listening to the accommodations and of the washer. and they just listen to it. and this is a boring job. so that is not the life you would expect as a because by boring in film, the 21st the style to submit the center of a hyundai charge. sushi we need, you know, want to know why you're there. does this you for and everybody knew this place was crawling with spies from all over the world. just this was the regular citizens didn't notice anything in their everyday lives become the marine felt a chance of comp in west berlin its way east german rescue cheese. well, 1st registered and housed, but not always,

innocently. wisdom secret services like to see i a, in the bushes m, i 6 went to the marie and sold it to low do the elbow the all east german citizens who came to west portland had to 1st registering marie and failed to pay them. and being questioned by the intelligence services from the 3 allied powers was part of the admission process. discard the aim was to persuade people that often now they decide to leave east germany. they might, could work for west germany. the, the ship it says lived and spied in west berlin, but travelled regularly to the store as a collective in east berlin. a co, that apartment was used to relate instructions and give them a place to have lunch and chat homeless. we're not for the of the high profile spies that we've met for 13 years. always in that apartment.

we worked friends, but we worked well together. we became a team and developing our legend. so if we would ever, because we had it all to the year, they gave me virtually fry on to the side what information would be useful. and then i develop projects for my sources and sent them to get that. we got information about discussions within the government and especially differences whenever it covered and has a policy. there's always differences of opinion. and that was important to know. while the ship it says with active agents, the tools had to wait in the us. they were to live under false identities. on notice on the scene, we were out of cover vitamins in need with our job was to establish ourselves as us

citizens, a case of war broke out between the soviet union and the us government. and the embassies close to go to when the board trapped your flows and then we would have been supported the soviet agent network in the u. s. again, and it says it'll be up in your and we'll definitely try to tie i'm, it was really my only had me. we could only rely on each other. and the separation from our family was of course, extremely difficult. until on the tuesday, we left moscow not knowing for how long before last and must come. you will see if you got a secret tip. at the western most pointed berlin on the full in the east gym and bowed up. time seems to have stood still got to a post. once used by the nazis allied victor, britain took the off to world war 2. it's now i'm going to treat aviation museum. the

ending operation gold. as it was not pictures of the spine tunnel went around the world. and double agent, george blake would like to flee via east berlin to moscow, where he thought in 2020, the why do people like like to the ship? it's has become spawns, power, money, ideals, east germany as an attempt at a better society. this experiment in the east was a worthy experiment after the whole of cost, but no one talks about where the experiment because it didn't work. and so okay, we've accepted that. but we don't forget as jewish people, what happened in this country? here we did see an attempt to keep this more cold and not let it
