the age-old dream of flying was realized

for the first time in the late 18th

century and like a fever dream of the

ensuing mechanical age engineer's

devised all manner of motorized

contraptions some of them imitated the

flight of birds that did not go anywhere

but bold aviators had more practical

dreams they would fly machines that

today are known as aeroplanes

some of them resembled belts with wings

there were fragile and often things went

wrong

[Music]

Aviation had its erly disappointments

and groundings but that did not deter

Alice from pursuing the great purpose

[Music]

but what to do with passengers where

these planes powerful enough to carry

people and if so where to tuck them away

[Music]

not much later stronger engines allowed

for greater payload in planes were built

like taxis

but that was not enough in order to

carry a significant number of passengers

massive clumsy planes had to be built

which required an array of high-powered

engines

but these behemoths could hardly get off

the ground

[Music]

the real future of aviation was thought

to be the airship like the highways now

filled with automobiles the skies were

teem with airships

[Music]

as the crowning achievement the German

engineer Graf Zeppelin built airships of

gigantic proportions they could carry a

multitude of passengers on

intercontinental voyages Zeppelin's

began regular flights from Europe to

India to Brazil to the United States

[Music]

the cabin was so spacious that during

flight passengers enjoyed luxuries on a

par with a much slower ocean liners

dining rooms grand pianos even a dancing

hall

and then it all ended with a catastrophe

of the Hindenburg

[Music]

[Music]

the promise of the Zeppelin was never

completely discarded but it took until

the end of the 20th century for the idea

to be revived today applying non

flammable gases and with different

applications in mind a new breed of

high-tech engineers has emerged

I teach aerospace engineering here Queen

Mary University of London and this is my

laboratory here we've got aircraft and

what we're doing here is we're checking

the safety of the structure we're

bending it with a ton of load check

these panels don't buckle we've got

strain gauges on it and then we'll

measure the deflections in there to

check we don't have any distortions but

the most of the work we do in here is

aerodynamics and this yellow thing is a

big window the flow comes from this the

back of the room here is coming through

here goes around onto the floor and gets

up to about 100 miles per hour in there

so we could test things subsonically

less than the speed of sound and give us

useful information about the forces and

measure the forces on bodies like this

thing this isn't a model of an airship

or an airship body we can measure the

forces on the balance

but also we set up a little test here

with a smoke filament coming over the

top round the nose of the airship you

can see the flow there coming over the

top but come with me come right round

here this is a smoke tunnel this is used

for visualization you can see these comb

of smoke filaments coming down through

the smoke tunnel it's coming around this

model which is a model of the airship

it's round spherical with a code

underneath like a raindrop

the reason it's fat and round like this

is so it can be maneuverable now

Zeppelin's the big German Zeppelin's

were long shapes like cigars and they

could barely maneuver when they turn

they were fast but they could could

barely turn so this airship can turn

quite quickly and that's the little

breakthrough just just reducing the drag

by a factor of two the test here isn't

exactly representative because there's a

thin layer there we call the boundary

layer just a millimeter above the

surface

and that layer of air dictates the

entire flow around the airship but on

the big airship it will be a turbulent

little Eddie's in that boundary layer

and that will make the flow more

turbulent close the body and the

separation region it'll be closer it

should be even lower drag so I'm hopeful

this airship will be maneuvering from

these tests I'm quite confident we'll be

able to maneuver close the trees round

near them and that's the important thing

I want to get done in this test and from

what I've seen today what we've seen

here and the testing I've done the wind

times I'm confident we'll have a good

airship doctor Dori

you won't happen to your left hand gonna

be showy well when I was a small boy I

had an accident I was always interested

in spaceflight wanting to get to orbit

and things like that and I was building

a rocket town it's about 14 years old

and I was holding the rocket in this

hand and very I didn't understand

propellants if the chemistry teacher

just taught me the year before but I was

only 14 and the lesson I need it was a

year later about oxidation reactions and

I had a spontaneous explosion but

holding the rocket but luckily I live it

but at that time it was a 50% chance he

could have gone this way and looking on

alive today

so I recommend any any small children or

teenagers home be careful there you mess

around with rockets because I can't be

an astronaut now

for a long time I've had a dream of just

floating or flying zooming through the

air dreams during the night as well just

flying through cities and through

valleys and under bridges and flying

everywhere just floating above the

surface seeing life

we need something very maneuverable and

a balloon isn't ideal something like

this would be much better if it could be

quiet as well that's the important it's

gonna be really quiet you can see here

what I've got on the back is a small jet

engine just enough to lift my weight we

can realize our dreams this that's the

thing that I've learned in this whole

project is that you start from a concept

you do the design and you can actually

see your ideas being made and you can

realize dreams it's just a simple step

and it just requires a little bit of

determination but you can do it you can

do it whenever you want you just have to

have that dream just and then just zoom

up that's the thing we should let's go

boy let's go fly

[Music]

[Music]

carving north of London in these

gigantic hangars most of Great Britain's

glorious airships were built here dr.

doreen who plans to test his new

prototype

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

so that was the first time it's flown

and I think I think it on the whole I'm

quite confident again prides not quite

the right feeling to be honest with you

throughout this whole project until now

I feel quite a lot of heaviness which is

quite the difference to the levity show

you know I really want to have you know

the airships about levity being light

but I feel a little bit heavy about the

situation still but I'm getting back

some confidence because of what's doing

it fast because the past I mean it's

it's it's for me it's a little bit

difficult getting in an airship again

it's always brings back memories and you

asked me only about safety it brings

back all these memories and it was ten

years ago but I still think about that

constantly and it's nice to get back in

the air you know if you've had an accent

little bicycle anyone knows it it's the

best thing you can do is get back on a

bicycle what darling miss referring to

is a catastrophe which befell him with

an early airship he built

that's why evacuation measures in this

test top priority

during his plan is to fly this airship

over the jungle canopy and use it as a

platform for studying and filming the

largely unexplored treetops

we chose the area of kaieteur falls deep

in the rain forests of Guiana in South

America here untouched landscape in

diversity of flora and fauna found in

perfect unity

the other waterfall is an airstrip where

a few in the components of the airship a

large quantity of compressed helium gas

and supplies

for backup safety we also brought in an

ultralight aircraft and an experienced

aviator to fly it

locals from Menzies landing a tiny

settlement nearby were hired as Porter's

Kiana the only english-speaking country

in South America has a small population

of approximately 700,000 British

colonial rule brought Indians from India

and Africans from the Caribbean the

native Amerindian population has shrunk

to a mere 3% many of these men here are

Rastafarians this rough-and-tumble lot

normally works is diamonds - just like

Rambo we set up camp in the clearing

that provided protection from high winds

from the very first day where him during

who would struggle with a mess of engine

parts tools and wires in attempting to

unravel the mess this luck would be

elusive up until the very end responding

this is a switch unit that then there's

central just above my head and this

central switch will control the tail

motor and the side switches will control

how we go up and down very important we

did not know then that this particular

switch would cause a huge problem later

and then on the end will be electric

motor

let's get that motor out box here this

is actually interesting Motors is

designed by sundry cooter Lynch in

England he never went to university and

doesn't know any mathematics and stuff

like that but he taught himself

electrical engineering and it turns out

the motor he's made he's one of the

world's leading motors in terms of power

and mass and he's developed his own kind

of

sort of algebra to do that but no other

person no academic can understand what

he's doing but he seems to know more

than many academics in electrical

engineering departments because this

motors very very good performance the

best I could find most the time we'll

just be drifting with all the motors off

at least I'm hoping you'll be lovely

just to be above the canopy with

complete silence and I just think that

these is today if you not noticed that

there's so many aircraft think that

everything isn't so noisy and when you

get a bit of peace and quiet just just

quiet then you have a chance to think

quietly floating about the forest in

those mists

[Music]

of course in a way there's always going

to be this at the same time in this

lightness in this kind of ethereal

theory feeling of floating and in this

mist

that'll be beautiful but the same time

my mind will always had this heaviness

in it it's not just the danger it's the

it's that feeling of a danger but the

thing could go wrong but it's still the

past and I'm hoping that this project

will finally I don't know at least

proved that what we did way back in

Sumatra was right and that but DITA

blogs vision was justified in my life

I've only met a few men who impressed me

and and DITA was one of them he was a

man that I don't have much respect for

many people but DITA when you met him he

was such a solid man and so generous and

he was such a bloody good

cinematographer he had made so many good

wildlife films and when he died in in

1993 April 3rd it just seemed totally

unjust because he was just the start of

a major project when you make a wildlife

film one of the most important things is

of course to know about your subject but

as I am NOT a scientist in the way of

having detailed studies or have studied

in detail animals or their behavior I

have to refer to experts who know one of

the most extraordinary characters I've

ever met was AD&D Shriver the Adrian

took us into the forest confronted us

was the gorillas and we got charged and

charged and charged again and I think

and I'm sure if I would have even

flinched once and would have dropped the

camera would have run or turned around

Adrian would have said well this is

obviously not the right man to make this

film

aidan to shriver had this orphaned baby

gorilla and one day he decided to

introduce it into the forest to let it

know the sights and the sounds and

suddenly we sensed the gorillas were

right close and Adrian stood there was

the baby girl on his arm and suddenly

the gorilla called in a way it had never

called before it was really although

there was a strange feeling it was all

quiet and suddenly we saw the leaves

move and it was Hannibal first who

looked at us and I sensed there was

something going to happen which which

really we shall never forget Hannibal

suddenly called and Casimir answered

from the background and Adrian isn't

very very nervous and we all realize

this is a situation which really can end

up in something terrible Casimir came

and screamed and and just charged Adrian

Adrian literally had no other chance and

to drop the baby gorilla because if he

would have kept it we all convinced that

Casimir would have killed him although

he knew him very well for many years why

don't i filming can be very dangerous I

think when one gets into a situation

which is created by humans in Sri Lanka

we had a situation where there were

elephants isolated in small pockets of

forest in amongst plantations they were

shot at by people every day and so they

were very very dangerous indeed so we

went in there and we got into a very

dangerous situation in fact the elephant

ran right over me and I was very lucky

to say that the camera was planned for

my hands and it still kept on running

[Applause]

[Music]

for 11 years I felt the weight of guilt

about that accident it was a stupid

meaningless accident and I went over it

many many times in details trying to

find exactly what went wrong all the

technical facts chasing around like a

vicious circle over and over again

sometimes twice a day every day more

than that never finding an answer

he knew the risks he accepted his

responsibility and he trusts me in my

judgment and in fact shows show great

respect to me

and

I know I'm not responsible for the

detail of the accident but but but if I

hadn't had the dream in the first place

if I hadn't had the idea of doing this

[Music]

then it would never have happened

I mean he would probably be alive and

and filming today

[Applause]

it's nine point seven meters in diameter

life couldn't be better

he couldn't be dead ah that's your

problem in there well we've got their

bowel tangled up with electrical wires

everything in our life is not ropes

never untangle themselves they tangle up

they become complex with time these

human beings wanting to be untangled

maybe that's our mistake to try and

impose okay

that just discovered when you go in

there there's two electrical connections

ever a male and a female connection and

I'm I made a mistake and put two female

connectors together so I've got to

change the connector so got to go back

in there and do it again

yeah but should take about ten minutes

[Applause]

[Music]

so he's gonna fill up with the 480 cubic

meters of dingy Liam that's quality

that's quite small by airship standards

in fact this will be one of the smallest

airships ever built in the world most -

it's about 2,000 cubic metre so it's

relatively small but for me this is a

big day

the gondola attaches in six places just

to make sure we got all the lines

everyone staying on their line it's all

about confronting chaos in finding chaos

is very real in a moment with a storm

coming in from the northwest I'm a

little bit worried it's too high off the

ground and not properly secured not

filled with helium so they're getting a

bit nervous here

whereas you can see we got a bit of a

strong there just like there's a big one

coming into town it's very flat out

there so the next hour we're gonna find

out where this airship can take the full

force to this storm only a 50/50 chance

quite nice actually it's quite cooling

quite relaxing know that all your work

is we want you for several years to

destroy it in a few minutes but that's

nothing that's nice

[Applause]

easy break any second now

[Applause]

[Music]

the night's rainstorm luckily did not

cause any damage and removed on after

installing a camera

we checked the airship for buoyancy

against its full payload the ship is so

balanced that spilling less in a bottle

of water makes it lift off the ground

during this test the airship remained

strictly on tethers while we were doing

this test one of the local men drew our

attention that is a beautiful view it

has the sunset and there is the balloon

just floating around aimlessly yeah it's

beautiful

it's just fantastic I'm so fortunate

enough to witness something of a gem I'm

a my number of mostly and this is like a

diamond

nice big diamond I love this this is

cool

this is real good there is this big

white diamond just floating around in

the sunrise it's cool dedicated to my

mom somewhere in Spain unlike I think

this yeah this is beautiful

mrs. Enid ever good morning

[Music]

just think about it for seconds to think

about the fact you've got seven thousand

nine hundred miles of rock below you

right now wherever you're sitting on the

planet you've got seven thousand nine

hundred miles of Rock try to imagine

that huge amount of rock jump gravity is

a force that pulls me down you can't

escape it unless you have something like

a helium balloon or wings like those

Swift's those Swiss have got a lovely

Latin name Aaron ortus hasn't that a

beautiful name the way they dive down in

their free flight becoming weightless

before they dip into those Falls isn't

that beautiful

out of curiosity our physician on

location an expert mountain climber

decided to have a look for himself he

wanted to see the mysterious nesting

place of the Swift's from the bottom of

the falls the gigantic cave is

accessible and has resisted all attempts

by explorers

we lower the camera to him hoping to

gaze into the unknown

later we decided not to show his footage

we will show only the image from the

spinning camera as we pulled it back up

on a rope

okay loss knowledge banks have a master

schedule fun

yeah we have a loss guide a month on one

time to prune for diva home here in him

spots

listen that spam another hint ago

in secretive Elster yesterday there was

a casino the awful eyes tomatoes lettuce

listen was exclusive even though that is

calen Matsuda zone and ridiculous to

copepod impossible

shortly after how much Imus experience

we asked an Amerindian former tribal

leader how he views the cave if I had

wings one the first thing I would like

to know what behind the earth because

there's a home of the roof where the

roof and nobody knows what was behind

what lies what story what what really is

behind you never had wings one of my

first dream is to go behind you to see

what flies do we have stories like this

the legend goes that behind there have

huge big snakes live in deer that that

protect sort of treasures like a diamond

goal whatever thank you

I mean that's a legend let's say that

one of our climbers went down on a rope

and looked into it with a camera

he saw what's in there I don't think

they should they ever publish it I mean

what you see is yours

I mean you keep it to yourself but I

don't think it should be published as a

wall say okay this is behind you it

would last it's the whole essence about

our culture what tends to we die away

with rooted

but what we can reveal is a legend of

how cater waterfowl got its name

probably before the discovery of the new

world savage tribes of cannibals swept

through this region the native people

have found themselves on the brink of

extinction kaya

their leader took his canoe and plunged

himself into the abyss he sacrificed

himself in order to save his people

since then

the waterfall bears his name Kyah - Kyah

is formed

it is believed that his face can be seen

carved in the rock by the edge of the

fall back in our camp in anticipation of

our first flight be closely monitored

the weather a big problem is gonna be

wind so we're measuring the wind speed

and checking doesn't go above 2 meters

per second

you've got a mother yeah

she's living in Spain Malaga her name is

you want her to see this yeah hey mr.

and miss can you explain about your

family or my family has migrated to

Europe early stage maybe in six isn't it

I've missed them really my hope is that

they do see them and they will feel so

happy to get in contact with the missing

brother the missing son the lonely guy

we have the Indiana would you like to

use this craft to fly to them wow I

would like to use this craft of life to

them yeah even if it takes a whole year

months I would love to have this graph

to fly to them maybe land on the rooftop

gives them a surprise yeah it will be

beautiful for me to be in aircraft or in

the morning there is Marty up at their

doorstep that same morning I had an

argument with Graham Torrington over the

accident of 10 years past we touched on

issues of responsibility and principles

I had to confront him myself

now there's another point

I cannot ask cinematographer to men this

airship together with you and lesser

being only to myself oh I know I'm just

saying I need to test it first just

don't do that you just don't do that and

there's an employer you cannot ask

anyone and of course I have to take

existing that but I think it should be

tested first by me alone and because we

have a low buoyancy situation there's a

lot of technical reasons to go along and

there's such a thing as as Follies yes

except that no it is not a funny but it

would be stupid stupid about what I'm

proposing it would be stupid to accept

that you are flying without a camera on

board and I don't think it's just a

plain stupidity they're dignified

stupidities and their heroic stupidities

and there's such a thing as stupid

stupidities and that would be a stupid

stupidity not to have a camera on board

mystic is my saying you just have one

flight no I'm not saying that every

single chance we have we have to take

advantage of well I don't know do I

do I have any options

okay pre-flight now if you just browsin

even again waxing yeah the coolness you

can see the consistence leaving the

fryer

yeah alright okay our songs come and go

stag in the house tagging of signing

some kind of a bitch were they each were

the inside to swallow said the commander

Keith Mouse my thinking at that time not

expressed to touring and was that if we

had a mishap for example developed a

gash in the skin of the airship which we

could not repair that this could be our

one and only flight this is why I

insisted upon having a camera on board

[Music]

radios check times recorder temps switch

off batteries there blah blah blah yeah

I think we're ready to go

our liftoff was smooth we kept the

airship antennas

[Music]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

as it seemed to be going so well we

decided on a free flight the holding

ropes were severed but then quickly the

airship got into trouble I smelled smell

and saw that one of the engines had

burned out and shortly after that pieces

of metal and plastic flew around my ears

as the propeller next to me had slammed

into its protective rim

we decided to drop a line and make a

quick rather graceless landing

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

no Ford power look at the anemometer you

see it nothing it's not spinning not

spinning so there's no indication

for me this is nightmare flight every

single technical problem that could go

wrong has gone wrong we had about seven

independent failures the motors are

overheating and they didn't do that in

the prior two tests

we're underpowered don't have enough

power to push cords the server most the

back wasn't working and we flew me the

reverse rudder pedal so that made life

even even more but there was a point

that I had all engines running and we're

running backwards and that is not a very

comfortable situation to be in

yeah this was not the right procedure

you know you know what I now mean from

my side this is not good airmanship and

this is not the right testing procedures

when when you fly aircrafts never flown

before and these conditions okay I did

that five or seven times you won't do

that again

when I'm here what we did not realize at

that time was that a main switch had

malfunctioned and reversed the thrust of

the tail engine studying our film days

later we noticed a strong turbulence at

the tail section while all engines

pushed forwards the most powerful one at

the tail end was pulling backwards

even though it was not so much a

question of pure airmanship for touring

and it was still a devastating blow but

if you give up now and be it would be

stupid I think it'd be very stupid not

to get the ocean flowing properly sister

just a question of what do you like to

fly sure that'd be great more Cantonese

enthusiasm please projects only thing

that one of the few people it's been

positive everyone else has been pretty

negative if you think about it past like

Mark Antony has grown up here 18 years

and he's had no formal education but

he's got a lot of wisdom and he knows so

much and we come in here like I'm coming

here with a lot of Technology misplaced

this guy's knowledge is worth more than

what was education in a sense the fact

he knows about little plants which which

which antiseptic qualities for eyes

could could be could be could be a

fantastic thing did the prospecting

element of this project the potential is

there to go can it be prospecting all

this golden silver mine is a waste of

time gold silver useless to us but they

could be they could be pharmaceuticals

curing pharmaceuticals in the canopy

many biologists believe that the canopy

is one of the most rich biodiverse areas

of this planet and yet it remains

unexplored this futile flights day and

my stupid technical efforts which of

which were also not following procedures

and making mistakes okay I accept all

that but it's just a stepping stone

is this a stepping stone to much greater

potential we became curious about Marc

Anthony's medicine and followed him on a

foraging field trip not far from the

waterfall I come to these dark places

for this medicine or the herbs it's good

for the eyes any any irritation or so

this here it's good for arthritis I use

this also for like swelling and things

and I have a bar that I normally use on

rooms this is covered but this one has

not been stitched it's the bar that

either this this one here so it's very

handy

[Music]

[Applause]

I love to come to this place here I have

few Falls right now it is solved

and sometimes when it rains I love to

look at it through this little bottle

this little problem

magnificently I look to their there's

the wall

they're kids

Marc Anthony do you see a whole universe

in this one single drop of water

I cannot hear what you see but it's

under

after a week of repairs and improvements

the airship flew again this day we kept

it strictly on tethers

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

as days went by and things improved

there was one dangerous dream lingering

to fly the airship over the falls

prudence demanded a test

we're just using these balloons to test

the turbulence levels above the area of

the Falls we're thinking whether it's

fun to fly the airship over there when

I'm worried it gets sucked down by the

downdraft and we've also filled these

last with champagne make them Lukey boy

it's an offering offerings the

waterfalls and film the monster and the

waterfall this is Jason he works in the

kitchen and he loves to dance

the second test showed the power of the

downdraft even more graphically the

breeze blew the balloons a griever

but then the suction pulled them back

for a while they seemed to hold their

own but we knew there and then that any

attempt to fly the airship over this

would inevitably prove fatal

eleven years ago Gertz dieter plugger

died in sumatra in an accident in a

project when I was working with him

we're using a a one-man airship the

small airship to film the forest canopy

I flew the airship first a few times and

then he flew it and it was going very

well the project on the day of his

accident we woke up in the atmosphere

was very somber I think it's possible

that his wife and him had a very big

argument tonight and there's a tension

maybe she had a premonition about what

was going to happen we took off he took

off in the morning a little bit late

there were lots of delays he decided to

mount the camera on the front of the

airship looking back at him took off a

little bit late and there was a slight

wind not much it was very calm yes it

flew up a river just like this calmly

disappeared over the canopy it circled

we could see it in the distance going

across the canopy while he was filming

but he started getting a little bit

higher than I expected and there seemed

to be a problem

then we radioed him and the first

problem we had was that radios didn't

work they hadn't been charged properly

the airship descended some way away over

the canopy and one member of the team

took bearings just to see what would

come down he stood on a big cliff ledge

he watched where it came down and then

very calmly very professionally we

arranged a team to go out and meet the

airship but I could see the airship up

on a tree perched on a tree with DITA

was up there sitting in the seat quite

calmly reflect I watched him sitting

near some Birds passed above and he

managed to lift the nose but the camera

that he put the start was was caught in

a branch and it wouldn't loosen and he

couldn't reach it

I saw him unbuckled his seat but he

wasn't wearing

harness and he tried to reach out to the

camera we waited again and I saw this

big bangs now it's getting close close

and close it was it was a light blue sky

like we have now but this cloud was big

gray Blanc coming in and I could see

that the rustling of the treetops and

then it just moved in very rapidly and I

could see that the the frame of the

airship on the tree rocking like a

Bronco and I could see DITA holding on

and then something I didn't quite

believe I saw it rock really hard and it

broke the frame of the airship and I saw

him learnt four words and fall out the

tree was most maybe 50 or 70 meters high

and I knew that if somebody fell from

that they would be killed once worth I

realized but I just didn't believe it

and so I ran back into the forest it was

very dark in there when you looked up it

was pitch black it's just little vague

lights from the light coming through but

he hadn't fallen and I was thought well

I must have been mistaken it must have

dreamt it I waited a period of about

five minutes and the others waited and

freedom was when they just told me to be

quiet

we heard some cracking of branches and

what has happened another member of the

team Marcus had climbed very cleverly to

it buff another tree that tree he was on

was dead and breaking anyway but Marcus

had climbed another dream got within two

meters I found out later of data and the

airship was lodged with DITA holding on

to the part of the airship were part of

a branch and he very calmly said to

Marcus pull me over the Marcus pulled

the rope towards him and this must have

dislodged the airship from where it was

and then DITA did fall I was standing at

the base of the canopy and then I saw

something I'll never forget

I saw this man coming down holding his

head lying on his side falling through

the air past me it was like in slow

motion I can still see that even though

it happened very rapidly I could still

see it falling and then I hear heard him

hit the ground with a thud

the terrible thing is it was like meat

in a butcher shop slamming down on the

ground the ground was soft and Petey and

he we thought he was dead at first he

was half buried in this peat he'd lost

an eye and so he looked a bit of a mess

and on the guys Rob was really fantastic

people come into their own in this

situation and I was just lost right the

first thing I said was just Jesus Christ

when I was just lost because I didn't

believe what has happened but Robley he

was like a brilliant nurse and he went

over this guy and he and I and and we

assumed his dead and as I look down at

the detail I realized his lie alive

because his other eye opened and their

freedom is brilliant because he just in

lightning speed to put dirty other

stretcher we took our shirts that tied

the stretch and very carefully lifted

him onto the stretcher

we've got him across the river with two

Indian episode Indonesian Porter's and

there was a mud Trek on the far side of

the bank

we got him there but when I got into the

sort of far side it was clear his

breathing was getting worse he had this

sort of moaning sound but then he

started sounding karma and I said to him

the last thing I said to him listen

something's face I did I did I just said

you're looking better DITA which of

course it wasn't and we lifted him up on

this mud puff it's very narrow ledge and

there was a terrible moment at that

point where we actually thought we're

gonna slip down the bank and his body

would fall into the river and and four

of us were concentrating hard on doing

this and just as we reached the canopy

height we heard him stop breathing

we couldn't I couldn't look back because

I was at the front and he got to the top

of the road and I looked at him and I've

never seen a dead body before in my life

and I looked at his body and now

realised he was dead

I washed I washed his blood in the river

from the cloth my shirt and I watched

the blood go down in the river it was

you

the last lostalready saw with him

after some more and very encouraging

tests we felt safe enough to fly the

airship completely free it carried

safety devices such as long ropes to

bail out with a radio and a GPS

positioning device in case it got blown

far out into the jungle our ultra light

kept circling closeby finally the ship

could do the work it was designed for

that morning it even ventured out to the

tiny settlement of Menzies landing

everyone was still sleeping good morning

sir Evan look what's flying there just

have a look just ever look what's flying

there wait

it even dipped into the potaro river

upstream from the waterfall

[Music]

[Music]

I

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Laughter]

[Music]

and then we halt the airship in

[Music]

[Music]

you dream about this kind of floating

you really do after you play dreaming

about flying around is the same

[Music]

I don't know does anyone want describe

that it was

today was hipomenes distill day

[Music]

[Applause]

I could stick I can still feel myself

flying around out there you know like

you've done anything you still have like

you'll need you run round you spin round

do you feel like you're still spinning I

still look feel like I'm floating my

body is just lifting off the ground now

[Music]

honestly speaking one hell of a relief

[Music]

hmm I think you know the feeling you get

[Music]

these are plugger he knew what was

happened today

we felt the right thing now would be to

leave dying alone and have a complete

change of setting a few miles downriver

from the waterfall Brazilians operated I

Amand mine we were searching for a real

white diamonds

and why then

I want some more of it

[Music]

as a gift

during off at mark-anthony a chance to

fly he seemed to be somber all this

Pleasant morning I'm about to fly and

surely I would like to take my ruse to

get me three somewhere wrong I would

like to take him on this flight why your

rooster

oh my rooster means so much to me or in

the morning the faster it grows then

crows came in when there's some change

to get a pattern in such a lovely guy I

will start like taking me on the spoils

[Music]

of course Mark Anthony did not expect to

fly to Europe to meet his family

something else was on his mind I should

have had my rooster here with me for the

world to see his name is red he has five

wives five him so I get five eggs every

morning I was having heard such wondrous

things about Marc Anthony's friend we

were curious to meet his splendid

rooster

[Music]

there he goes he's often as well five

hands I love the red is very much from

the time he was little chicken he was

born here on mendes landon hats its

father the other elder Brewster kind of

like arm controls the other hand and

when he was growing up his father used

to kind of beat him up to be off the

hands and after he had became one year

two months he started to resist his

father now he's a Spanish his father

from the land so he's the king of the

land right now this red wisdom

you know Mark Antony

had this strange feeling when I landed

in the village but the little a Meridian

children couldn't see the airship

expected to be all excited and jubilant

but they're very Placid and very sort of

quiet and they just it's like the

airship didn't exist they looked

straight through it like it's invisible

I was surprised by their actions

everything because Amerindians here in

the hall and said yeah

and I was thinking is about perception I

was thinking about James Cook it's

reported that when James could arriving

a shipment in New Zealand the Mary's

just couldn't see it they couldn't see

it right in front of his outside their

world of ideas

it didn't exist for them they think they

couldn't comprehend it and for me it was

like this little children they just they

just haven't seen ink like this before

and they just ignored the airship they

could see me but they couldn't see the

airship

I was sure of it was just too outside

their worlds I think that's what I heard

the feeling

exceptionally strange thing

are strange when we think

I think you'd be Swift they they live

five times faster than us

you know they match means they perceive

things five times the rate because they

move save so much faster than us five or

ten times faster you must be like cold

status' then slow-moving numberous

creatures and they're moving so

gracefully there's over a million twists

living at these waterfalls so let me

true

it's like a big concert they just like

shoals of fish suddenly they smooth so I

have down altogether and move backwards

and forwards like a music controlling me

you know they roll around and then

suddenly build quite come
