Because when 11 00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:33,640 Speaker 2: I do any filming at all, there's three pages of 12 00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:35,920 Speaker 2: how to step over an electrical cord and how to 13 00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:38,559 Speaker 2: pick up a bucket.

I had wife and character we were pulling inshurt 16 00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:50,440 Speaker 1: and I think I think there's a company that centa michell. 17 00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:54,400 Speaker 1: We do all our safety reports. I try to, you know, 18 00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:58,080 Speaker 1: stay within within within the lines as best I can. 19 00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:00,400 Speaker 1: But as you know, I've been shot at under water 20 00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:03,280 Speaker 1: with an AK forty seven, so I've gone to the extreme. 21 00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:05,039 Speaker 1: And if you're getting shirt for that, so everything else 22 00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:05,880 Speaker 1: seems to be okay. 23 00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:09,000 Speaker 2: So what kind of stuff are you doing to yourself? 24 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:09,679 Speaker 2: This time around. 25 00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:12,960 Speaker 1: This is a three originally meant to be a four 26 00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:15,640 Speaker 1: part series, but it's a three part series because we 27 00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:18,920 Speaker 1: were in Rio when COVID broke and the fourth episode 28 00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:22,440 Speaker 1: you never actually got made. But the first episode tonight's 29 00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:28,640 Speaker 1: episode is on demolition Derby in Middle America. It's it's funny, 30 00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:33,000 Speaker 1: it's got drama in it, it's good for hitting the family. 31 00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:36,760 Speaker 1: I could injure it as I normally do, and it's 32 00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:38,759 Speaker 1: incredibly colorful people and lots of action. 33 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:41,800 Speaker 3: Well, I've a I've done demolition Derby. 34 00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:44,520 Speaker 4: I did that many years ago, and it's more violent 35 00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:47,080 Speaker 4: than what you would think that you say, it doesn't 36 00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:48,680 Speaker 4: look as bad from the anside, but when you're in 37 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:51,360 Speaker 4: the cow and you get munched by someone, it hurts 38 00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:53,160 Speaker 4: like hell yeah. 39 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 1: I didn't expect it really to be like that. When 40 00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:00,720 Speaker 1: they said, would you like to experience of burnt demois 41 00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:03,920 Speaker 1: Derby before you do? It called figure ate racing and 42 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:05,800 Speaker 1: I got in a vehicle in the back seat that 43 00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:10,440 Speaker 1: they had just welded there and it was like bultiple 44 00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 1: car crashes. I got whiplashed, my teeth moved. I don't 45 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:17,239 Speaker 1: remember much of it. It was incredibly violent. Small cars 46 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:19,799 Speaker 1: it was demolition derby at Spee And. 47 00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:22,800 Speaker 2: Why do people choose to do it? 48 00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 1: It's an incredible love. It's a history thing in America, 49 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 1: and an incredible passion of love and to the point 50 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 1: where it can be very traumatic. So halfway through the 51 00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:36,520 Speaker 1: filming we went to the Bonneville Salt Flats, which is 52 00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:40,079 Speaker 1: where all the world records land speed records happened. It's 53 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 1: this incredible salt flat. And when we were filming with 54 00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:45,679 Speaker 1: a man whose passion he was just driven to kind 55 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:48,760 Speaker 1: of break the record with his car. For years, ten years, 56 00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:52,080 Speaker 1: he's been twisting his car, building this car. It's basically 57 00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 1: a plane on the ground. And then unfortunately he crosses 58 00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 1: at seven hundred and twenty kilometers an hour. 59 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:00,200 Speaker 3: Wow. 60 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:05,240 Speaker 1: So he'll never be the same. He's never he gets 61 00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:07,919 Speaker 1: over a calma, but he will never be the same. 62 00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:09,560 Speaker 1: And you look at that him and you think, why 63 00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:11,760 Speaker 1: the hell would anyone do that? He gets all money, 64 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:15,480 Speaker 1: he takes extreme risk. Well, if you're asking that question, 65 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 1: it may be hard for you to understand the why, 66 00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:22,960 Speaker 1: because he's driven by so much more. They love it so. 67 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 2: Much because that result is almost inevitable, isn't it. 68 00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:32,560 Speaker 1: It is inevitable. Not everyone crashes and not everyone like you, 69 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:37,760 Speaker 1: but it's if you keep going, the chances are the 70 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:39,280 Speaker 1: probability increases. 71 00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:40,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, you're going to keep going. 72 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 5: To you, is anything that is any of this resonating 73 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:46,480 Speaker 5: with you? You're thinking might take a leaf out of 74 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:49,240 Speaker 5: these people's books and perhaps do something else, Maybe go 75 00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:52,520 Speaker 5: on Studio ten and make a cake and some scrap booking. 76 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:57,440 Speaker 1: Huh. Yes, of course it hit me. That happened just 77 00:03:57,480 --> 00:03:59,560 Speaker 1: before I did Demolition Derby, so it really played on 78 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 1: my line. But when you believe that the story you're 79 00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:08,120 Speaker 1: telling are the culture you're exploring, he's more telling. Sometimes 80 00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:11,040 Speaker 1: you do put aside some of those serious risks and 81 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:12,119 Speaker 1: it's a good reminder. 82 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 2: Well, I was reading this morning about a woman in 83 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 2: America who has made a no gut or something I 84 00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 2: think it's called, where she's combined chicken nuggets and a donut. 85 00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 2: So if you're up for it, that could be a 86 00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:25,600 Speaker 2: fourth episode. 87 00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:30,600 Speaker 1: I tell you. America was even though I've been a 88 00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:32,680 Speaker 1: very proud astraand I've been here thirty years, but I 89 00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:37,200 Speaker 1: was born in Northern Canada, on an island in Northern Canada, 90 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 1: So America still feels weird important to me. There is 91 00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:42,840 Speaker 1: one dace during the filming of the demolition derby where 92 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:46,600 Speaker 1: the organizer had so many guns on him. Right, he's 93 00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:49,280 Speaker 1: eaten donut and he had turned all over him, and 94 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:51,239 Speaker 1: I said, why do you tell any guys? He pulls 95 00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 1: the gun out and he puts it on the part 96 00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:55,720 Speaker 1: of the vehicle and starts banging vehicle and my crew 97 00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:57,520 Speaker 1: are backing away. You know, I was kind of scared 98 00:04:57,520 --> 00:04:59,279 Speaker 1: of what this guy's going to do. And he's like, look, 99 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:01,840 Speaker 1: this gun doesn't show itself. This gun doesn't show itself. 100 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:06,920 Speaker 1: And you proceeded to explain to me why kids should 101 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:10,279 Speaker 1: be allowed to bring gun in the school. And his 102 00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:15,800 Speaker 1: rationale was assured mutual instruction, basically that it will shout 103 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:19,720 Speaker 1: another kid if anothery've got a gun. Gee G. 104 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:22,040 Speaker 3: You can't argue with that. 105 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:25,440 Speaker 2: You know, there's a point of a rationality that you 106 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:26,640 Speaker 2: just can't argue with there. 107 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 3: When you blame the boomtown rats, I don't like mondays. 108 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:30,600 Speaker 2: I blame the donuts. 109 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:34,719 Speaker 6: Yeah it's too much fat, mysult, but not for you, Todd, 110 00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:37,720 Speaker 6: because you have zero body fat and no doubt you'll 111 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 6: have your shirt off in this at some stage for 112 00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:40,000 Speaker 6: the ladies. 113 00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:44,200 Speaker 1: It gets worth. It gets worth, though my crew get 114 00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:46,280 Speaker 1: horrified when I need to do this. But in at 115 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:48,760 Speaker 1: one stage in vudoo, which will change fume slots to 116 00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 1: take thirty because you could never show this stuff seven thirty. 117 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 1: Eventually it's the last episode. It's a it's a baptism ritual. 118 00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:57,440 Speaker 1: I didn't quite know what was coming, but what came 119 00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:02,280 Speaker 1: was pretty extraordinary.
