the frank, i was gone 5 years off the coast and we remember when the road stood still stops march 8th on dw, the rush of the way, the passion and brilliance of a blind stuff by the prism of life. how somebody brings people together in brazil, the and into the freeze have a truck that braves snow storms and the installation in the fall north of the us the

you'd have to treat the road like there's a disaster around every corner, the stopper and to the just before leaving the and make sure the truck is in perfect working order. she depends on it. every say, lee and see if one piece is proud to be the 1st female trucker on what some called the most dangerous highway in the us. being bank back. think strands of hair for nickname among truckers, p k. leah takes off into the unknown. oh i

think it's gonna be pretty good. i'm not really sure. we'll know when we get there . and that's what makes it so interesting for the. so how does she feel excited? i like the challenge. hundreds of kilometers ahead. 11 to 12 hours of driving. mine is 30 degrees celsius solitude. darkness. lea loves the thrill of it all. she says, even though she knows truckers who have died, even though she almost died once herself, when a truck slid towards her while she was putting on snow chains. when i looked up and there's a, his trailer was locked up in dragging in my ditch coming right out. and it was like a wall of dumpsters on this. i was like, i don't know where i'm going to go at the start was no worry go. it was pretty

scary. only at the last 2nd did the truck regain control. that's another reason why lee a checks are load whenever there is space for her to pull over the thing we checked her load. i had one of these come loose 2 vans and 2 pickup trucks. that's what she's hauling this time around. leah is traveling with ron. he works for her and is driving this 2nd truck the do check the site already. got back to fix whatever. oh okay cool. i put them in the tie from here on it and it gets really low. me for the 2 of them, almost 130 kilometers, be on savings. alaska is 2nd largest city. the dalton highway begins. it is the only road that leads to the oil fields in the north highway, which sounds like a well maintained road is mostly gravel in summer and covered in ice and snow. and

the winter q at the bridge over the yukon river is one of just 2 gas stations. on the 666 kilometers long road, the appear to me of solitude next to the highway, the oil pipeline cuts its way through the landscape. the 2 are inextricably linked, the highlands like the live point, where the oil field, cars, gasoline, building, materials, food, everything the oil company workers need has to be transported across the, our much of it comes by truck over this one lonely road. if we don't get our loads there on time, then the oil field trips so essentially shut down there is little cellphone reception out here. so leah, ron and other truckers stay in contact via radio, about weather and road conditions that you never know there has to be an avalanche . you never know when the when's going to check out?

i haven't seen a lot of trucks so that concerns fees. so i'm thinking that something happened up the road. not really sure, but we'll find out. we arrive in cold foot, the only big town on the 666 kilometer root. big means $34.00 inhabitants to gas pumps, and the only hot food on the trip. omelettes, soup and fried food. leah has cellphone reception again and finds out more about the road conditions. our friend was talking to my husband saying last night. it took him like a couple hours to get couple 100 feet so that heal up there can make a break in the thing. once you get started, there's no place to go. but there's danger of an avalanche at the past, whether it will stay open is unclear. that's too hazardous for the rest of your safety issue,

calling you today. it's 0 degrees fahrenheit just under minus 18 degrees celsius. via protects the engine with tops and makes yourself comfortable behind the driver's seat. her trunk is her home and sleeping and it overnight is free. the trucker doesn't get cold. the heating runs all night. the next morning she calls her husband before she loses reception again. she wants to tell him that he needs to take out the garbage . he's worried about the road conditions. you know, that leaves, husband is also a trucker and understands the challenge that via faces on the mountain task, where there is no going back or waiting

we drive as soon as he passes us. hope everything goes well in the past. despite the danger lea and loves her job and truckers aren't well. she said she pays our employees about $165000.00 a year. that's well above the us average. she found it's a trucking company to gather with their husband, all the trucking and he'll stay on with the kids and then they'll go trucking and i'll stay on with the kids. so we kind of take there and then they make it out of the wilderness and our bank, among other people we are not allowed to be there for the unloading. the oil fields are sealed off. there's not much in the village apart from container hotels for the oil workers and all that's needed for oil production. leah and ron one to leave quickly it will be

a while before that happens. the return journey takes a day and a half this time. after that, the a has a day off and run already has his next trip lined up of the around $43000000.00 people worldwide up lines which causes huge challenges for everyday life. and so what do you do if you've lost the ocean, but can only feel and hear it and don't see it. how about plunging it? the but i mean for me sir, thing is everything. although it's, it's piece, it's freedom. it's sitting in the

place in the water. i'm no different from other people, you know, but on land everyone knows me as the blind girl, the girl with a dog. i'm the one with a disability, but not here. see that the common lopez he is to see. she feels the ways that the acetate from odo northern spain also follows her touches voice in the water. i'm in her eyes. i warn her of all kinds of dangers. for example, carmen, there's a ways coming, i always prepare her because of a wave comes without breaking. she won't hear it. oh, you are going to, i'm going to communicate with carmen and the water. we developed a whistling system that also works in wind and loud wave is going to be the same. yeah. one with somebody is more to the right because yeah, then those need to be those and due to their life, you know, when the case of danger go on along with all the

something like that common was born with a congenital disease to find it at 15 she took up searching the 1st time i stood up on the board and made it to sure. i said, my god, i love this, this is what i want to keep doing. so i didn't yet know how i was going to do it. and how serious i was about it. but i knew that i definitely wanted to keep searching will say that lucas garcia and common have been a team since 2018 training common was easier than he expected. yup. and he goes to the, i mean i had my doubts at 1st, but then i said to myself, why not going to lose? when i went into the water with her, i immediately realized that the prejudices and barriers one of mine, carmen, made it very easy for me. i realized that i simply had to teach her the same as

everyone else with her. i just have to look for different ways, you know, i sort of, it, it's, i have been, i'm lucky that i get on incredibly well with arguing the in 2018 common became the 1st blind estimate from spain to continue to the world adaptive surfing championship in california in 2021 to those metals. but i mean for me winning the world cup was like a dream. and because it was what i wanted most, it was like in a movie. and the fact that everyone on the team could be there at that moment was simply incredible. i've had a very bad phone, but i've never been afraid where i felt that i was in danger for that i never wanted to go back into the water. it's a risky sports and the thing not only for me is for everyone else to got up in front of me, but i want to get her delivered. i think it besides the physical challenges of the

school, common has other hurdles to ever come to see it. okay. we still blinding sponsors is a problem for them because their thing is in general and underscored but, and on top of that it's in my case, it's also women, surfing and adaptive. certainly i brought that up. that will and does that change? and that's gonna be a good visual circle really, because if we don't find sponsors for adaptive sports, if you look at then it will continue to be less profitable. and conventional supports and sounds like and they bought it, they come in here not to sign on to competitions, common sales accessories inspired by the see the beach, the she also ends money training assistance. don't that visually impaired people. the match whenever she finds time common catches this is with her trainer no study. i

want to encourage others to try anything they want. because dreams can come true. if we believe that they are achievable, there are no limits, only the limits we separate ourselves. most of those everyone should fight for their dreams that i would try everything he knows he yeah, but a lot of the in common. so one wants to never dream. and when even more titles, the mind cook young is celebrating her one hundreds birthday surrounded by friends and family. the more more people in singapore are celebrating high figure birthdays,

lots of people, lots of high. and today there's even a tv crew. it's all a bit much but boy talk you is delighted with architecture relation, a german newspaper from 1925 during the weimar republic. when she was born, singapore was still a british colony republic in durham. how do you live to be 100? we ask for her secret, but she needs a break. so her daughter answers, lots of friendship. i think just leave simply pretty well. has the family. that's about all she us. so this is a very simple life. you know, i mean, she didn't look for any brand new stuff, you know, all has to have big expenses. news and everything is a simple but never a lonely or don't like 80 percent of people in singapore. ms. lloyd lives in h d, b flats, public housing, but singapore and combine low rates. not especially beautiful,

but lovingly maintained and with the sophisticated concept people from different social classes live with each other here, not just alongside each other. something that's emphasized by activities and course is on offer in the buildings every day. sarita flores, i'm and che, mike. you are going to take part in today's activity. it's a p lighting session, and it seems very popular with residents 6. so later, after all moving keeps you young, just like social interaction does exercise also improve your mood and reduce the stress. so all of is adjusting gets around here. this around here. we have our shop so says there's still comfortable for us. we have everything down

a coffee shop where you can sit down and have omeo. the food courts also contribute towards longevity, offering fresh healthy dishes at low prices. stickers point out meals that are especially healthy with more whole grains or better quality oil for rita floors hyman, shame like you don't cook at home very often because it's usually cheaper and better here. they have initial a most healthy as the 2nd type c and other charges. so sometimes the poverty they will come in, they will come into the future just to have a low price, singapore, as government,

doesn't like to leave anything to chance. not even the population's life expectancy . urban planning here focuses on getting people moving soon. all residents should be just 10 minutes away from a park, a green space, or even wilder nature. public transport is efficient, affordable, and accessible. while driving is expensive. state active city scheme is costing single floor millions, but in the long term it will relieve the burden on the health care system for that's the idea. single bar as national university even has a center for healthy longevity, which is conducting research into how the city can help its citizens live as long and healthy life as possible. very often we think that individuals have to make choices either to do it or not to do it, but we all, all already know that there are psychological notching tech needs needed and that's

how we do it. in singapore, we tried to not to individuals to words search and actions which are more healthy compared to the choices. somebody would have me. this also motivates the younger generation. we need jeremy in downtown singapore. he's 32 and rarely thinks about getting older. so on his risk is a fitness watch that singapore makes available to everyone free of charge together with a government health app. if i'm in the gym, if i switch on to say to fitness, check the here will come, then you will check my heart rate. and once it hits maybe goes up to a $120.00, it is considered more of an activity and then it comes. so if you do 10 minutes of one of the activities, you get more points as well. you can claim it supermarkets and some fitness, single par, supermarket stock, similar items to those and many other countries. but jeremy takes

a closer look at the packaging because especially healthy products carry an official government label healthy your choice. find those can literally boost your pocket. the come off and then at the bottom as long as you have one item was held to try symbols, each one will give you 5 points in that and in one. so i believe i had 6 here. so i got a 13 points i think is just gave me to cation an image. it just makes it fun. yeah . i, i feel like sam points like that kind of stuff. people born in singapore today have an average life expectancy of 85 years. another area in which the wealthy city state is once again a world leader the
