the redeemer sits a community named for a saint. what are challenges living in a favela? >> health, education. those are top priorities. >> few residents would stop to speak with us on camera for fear of associating with our group traveling with a police escort. >> often houses look to an outsider but to people that live in them, they rebuilt the homes several times over three generations. you see building materials everywhere. you see stacks of cement. it looks chaotic. these are people who are developing -- plastering a wall. these are people who are slowly but surely improving their homes. >> we talked about basic services. everywhere you look there's garbage.

>> it is. it constantly piles up unless the government comes in and cleans it or community members do it, which both can happen and do happen occasionally but not frequently enough. >> you know, there's graffiti everywhere. not only here in the pbut also n rio. >> in communities where they kind of run things or graffiti. >> means that's their territory. >> gangs still have a presence here. a program launched by police eight years ago promised to make things safer and to some extent it has. heavily armed officers patrol the favela wearing body iron with their names and blood type stitched over their hearts. community and police working

people outside of thehave an op. what don't they understand? >> he said it's become peaceful. he lived here for 50 years and now he sells snacks and drinks to tourists. the people here at the end of the day get ready to go to bed, they look down and see the lights of rio. that's sugarloaf right over there. they see modern rio down here. is there a sense here of envy, life down there? >> i think there's both. people envy. that's why you have high crime rates. part of the reason and also the desperation and inequality. >> do they want to be there? >> not necessarily. people are born and raised in these communities. they're very culturally vibrant. they don't see the same sense of community in those neighborhoods. >> they may walk down during the day and work down there and at night this is where they want to return for their sense of community and comfort. >> there's an element of people

generations and this is where they can create their lives. this is where they have control over their outcomes. often there's a cultural element where they don't even imagine what it would be like to live there and people who live there can't imagine what it is like to live here. they're right next to each other but they're worlds apart. >> it's important as we sit on this beautiful beach on most days to remember there are two sides of rio. >> absolutely. great piece. coming up, michael phelps' boomer all joining us live. >> how awesome. and billy bush is in the orange room with one announcer's unbelievable call during last night's duel in the pool. wait until you hear this one

coming up on channel 20. >> i'm gary shapiro. here's what's happening on channel 20 for 9news 8:00 a.m. a win for the denver broncos in their first preseason game. and the defense anyway looked like it's picking up right where it left off in the super bowl last year. we are going to look back at the broncos-bears game and talk to some people who are excited about football season finally getting here. the summer olympic games are about halfway over. looking pretty good for team u.s.a. we will look at some of the most powerful moments from

and green land and sharks, the oldest living animals with back bones maybe, anyway. one shark estimated at 400 years old but science isn't always accurate and that may be a little bit premature to call that guy 400 but we will check in on that. right now let's check the weather and the traffic with amelia and marty. >> thank you, gary. we have to talk about a serious crash up north where along the frontage road that parallels i- 25 near highway 52 pedestrian crash investigation is still ongoing. the northbound lanes of the frontage road are closed, the southbound opposing lanes on the opposite side of i-25 remain open. i-25 is also open but you can see everything happening from the highway drive which is why we are still sluggish, especially for northbound commuters so we will track the rest of our highway accidents and issues over on channel 20 when we are talking about downtown denver. and around here today, dry, stable air has moved in, any thunderstorm development looks like it will stay in southern

monument hill moving down through the springs and over the southeastern plains later in the day. we have had good showers down around la junta and lamar this morning, replaced by moderate to heavy storms in southeastern colorado tonight but a fairly quiet day here for metro denver and the front rage with highs in the -- front range with highs in the lower to middle 80s. storms generally staying to the south. you will see them off in the distance but i don't think you will see much here over the city. looking for isolated storms tomorrow, even smaller chance early next week as temperatures rise into the low 90s monday

injured in a fall from a ferris wheel in tennessee. and finally, a jaw dropping story this morning from the world of sharks. scientists studied sharks caught accidentally by fishing boats. eight of the sharks had lived for at least two centuries and one enormous female may have been 400 years old. researchers say the sharks survived so long because they metabolisms so slow they only eat one or two huge meals each year. so now i have something in common with the greenland shark. slow metabolism. >> not age though. not age. thank you very much. thank you. >> up next, team phelps live here on copacabana beach. we'll talk to michael's mom and fiance about this incredible run in rio and how becoming a father
