early in the morning the group of rafters heads for blocks gauss county and they're going to face the challenge of rafting in shallow water a route winds through the mountains a much higher altitude on the bed of the belisle river. more than three thousand mountain streams and springs flow into the belisle river similar walks a full scuffs cage from mountain tops into rocky gorges and canyons to form a full flowing river many of the rocks overhanging the water a one hundred meters tall sunlight never reaches some of these places this is a kingdom of rock and water. the instructor insists that the crew hold a brief for an old training exercise in open water before reaching black canyon this place is free from rapids and offers a good opportunity for safe training crewman can put the finishing touches to
5:46 am
stretch techniques and synchronize commands you know what is it like hell we can train here don't you remember that we should have done it before we got to the canyon. what are we supposed to do in areas it dear. but yeah let's go skating. thick ice covers the lake they used to mine limestone here when the deposit ran dry water accumulated on the makes bed it was then the rafters began using the lake for practice there is no other place anywhere near here without waves or strong currents. the ice is breaking. let's go somewhere else. friends tell them via walkie talkie of the situation for training is good in the bella river the crew decides to go there to hold the final training exercise here
5:47 am
they hope to end the expedition. but if we can't cope there we might try to get a bit further upstream they current is weak there as it is we wasted very seconds although i think the going was what bristol that broke up there slowed us down in a good surrogate don't forget to pull up here now slow down surrogate. all members of the rafting team first took up the sport as tourists as time went by this extreme cold became a profession in the way of life many of them have left their regular jobs to become rafting instructors when they're not busy training their company tourists on rafting expeditions down the bend i really. do go go go. mind being gold keep it up.
5:48 am
all rights we've made it now let's keep going. the team began to train intensely only a year ago they aim to enter international competitions to take on the most complicated routes. just a few which is some battens are very difficult to clear they're dangerous the slightest mistake even one wrong stroke may lead to very serious consequence. once they're through the training exercise the same makes a swift ascent rafting is not only about exciting trips down stream but also about mountain climbs here the team had to drag the full to kilogram raft all the way up the hill. to. the rafting team takes
5:49 am
a mountain road to get to block out strung up. a team begins preparations for the trip on a small rock overhang by the side of the road the excitement of the rafters is reaching its peak. it's all about the adrenaline fantastic you get so much adrenaline there especially when a wave flushes over us it's sheer madness is what makes your heart thump like mad it's so exciting. and full heading down to the starting point all from members have to sign an important disclaimer this is required by international rafting rules. as a member of this rafting expedition i have been told about the complexities and
5:50 am
dangers involved in the route i take full responsibility for possible injuries or even my death i absolve the expedition's head from responsibility for the above by mutual agreement neither participants in the expedition or its head have been insured. only people who can apply for there are a lot of stick part in this expedition this is better done collectively as occurred this route is for professionals not amateurs. it's difficult to reach the bottom of the canyon in a narrow gorge because the team will have to make their way from shop slippery rocks before they get to the starting point once then turning back is pointless members of the crew believe they will be able to reach the bank down stream that same in mind they need to cover the whole route without any mishaps and way back step aside to delancey and they're going to set the boat there. rocks towered over
5:51 am
the narrow river and lockouts canyon. here the water is neat says to. attention everybody the boat is going to merge all looks on make sure you're always on top of those on the top most and on the almost saying. ok get moving everybody pulls. in the old days the leader of the local mountain mohamad amine used to throw warriors preaching the strict rules of the day from such cliffs into the abyss those of them who could safely reach the banks were allowed to live on however there were only a handful of survivors. more than a hundred years on a team of rafters went to the canyons balsam to put themselves to the test in a bid to get the upper hand on the powerful mountain stream the belisle river
5:52 am
always contract is on that clearing trap it is quite an ordeal. and all the ones the ones all the ones with the ones all of the ones who are back away. rafters know the bel-air river has an unpredictable character and extremely difficult rapids it is the science of international competitions each year tons of routes are rushing through the coolidge play bass and boulders and treacherously conceal of those. turbulent currents change cools to hollow out mean inches into the rocks will pull spring up in the most unexpected places the river floods off any detailed study of it it is that full impossible to chart the best route to the rapids. all the boat
5:53 am
everybody gets out. let's listen up before we gone we need a breather. about our suntan let's have some rest. with half of the journey behind them the team pulls is to rest the strain of the rapids has taken its toll. we've covered about half of the distance so for another four difficult rapids are still ahead of us so let's get going. the rest is relax on a small flat patch of the bank. when spring comes around it will disappear hundred ten means a body of water becoming part of the river bed. this place can only be reached in winter time when the water level isn't. quartz rose forward. or throws forward. hold back
5:54 am
everybody. now all together well done. whenever you paddle concentrate on what you're doing or side missed out on two strokes. stop talking and look this way. this turn goes in that direction then turn to the sensory. the river demonstrates the full full submit cirrhotic behavior a rough those are unable to avoid a perilous accident despite their vast experience and long train. coming closer give me a hand. clinging to the side of the boat is the only option otherwise the powerful current will throw a person against the ropes but doing nothing in this situation is just as dangerous the current will of it's in the boat and. all the people under the rocky bank this
5:55 am
would lead to an inevitable death. or logic to topple it as fast as you can. the ball is sure to show up any time now. it's going to show up. move forward move forward will go forward. that. that. move that well done good job everybody. don't. like it the roughest conic they sized up the situation and kept calm to use their favorite phrase they felt unsafe themselves they were able to keep the raft afloat and
5:56 am
didn't lose any members of the crew not even a single cause was lost this time. the spirits of the river has allowed the crew to overcome around fits nobody knows what some stories of them as they continue rowing down the mountain stream but it doesn't matter that adrenaline is what they're often. i live in a country the gun understand that there's more violence in the streets of this country than there are in the streets in afghanistan or baghdad. one night in the spring become a brace of them. as it. comes
