0:00:43 > 0:00:46- # But it turns up... - All over the place #

0:00:46 > 0:00:49We kick off today in the driest state,

0:00:49 > 0:00:53which is sometimes known as the Silver State - Nevada.

0:00:54 > 0:00:56Ed - you promised me two things today.

0:00:56 > 0:00:58You said you'd show me something awesome,

0:00:58 > 0:01:01and that the voiceover man couldn't find us out here.

0:01:01 > 0:01:03I AM going to show you something awesome.

0:01:03 > 0:01:05And the voiceover man's stopped talking. Listen...

0:01:05 > 0:01:08BIRD OF PREY SCREECHES Do you know, that's quite impress...

0:01:08 > 0:01:09I was just making a cuppa!

0:01:09 > 0:01:12Iain, you have the hair of a badly-groomed Chihuahua.

0:01:12 > 0:01:14Ed, you make sandpaper seem smooth.

0:01:14 > 0:01:16Right, that's me for now. Carry on...

0:01:16 > 0:01:19- How did he find us in the middle of a desert?- How does he do that?

0:01:19 > 0:01:21Oh, anyway, that's why I brought us out here.

0:01:21 > 0:01:24That's the exciting thing I was telling you about.

0:01:24 > 0:01:27Hang on - you can't have a city that massive in the middle of a desert.

0:01:27 > 0:01:29Must be a mirage. I need some water.

0:01:29 > 0:01:31Put down your cuppa and do something useful.

0:01:31 > 0:01:33Tell him what we're doing here!

0:01:33 > 0:01:35You're standing around looking silly - as always.

0:01:35 > 0:01:38If you want water in the middle of the desert, you couldn't

0:01:38 > 0:01:41have come to a better place - welcome to Las Vegas!

0:01:41 > 0:01:43The city was founded in 1905,

0:01:43 > 0:01:45and was a small town until the 1930s.

0:01:45 > 0:01:49Then, they built a massive dam to bring water into the desert. Now...

0:01:53 > 0:01:56'Ed and Ian - you have 44 seconds to find out

0:01:56 > 0:01:58'as much as you can about Las Vegas.

0:01:58 > 0:02:02'Ed - you have Mark, who knows all about Vegas history.

0:02:02 > 0:02:06'Iain - you have Jesse, who is an Elvis impersonator and minister.

0:02:06 > 0:02:08'Whoever finds out the most facts is the winner!

0:02:08 > 0:02:12'Three, two, one - go!'

0:02:14 > 0:02:16- Hello. What does the name Las Vegas mean?- The Meadows.

0:02:16 > 0:02:18How long have you been an Elvis impersonator?

0:02:18 > 0:02:20Good lord, 20 years now, sir.

0:02:20 > 0:02:22- What did it look like 100 years ago? - A lot of desert.

0:02:22 > 0:02:25- Why is Elvis so popular in Vegas? - Because he's the King.

0:02:25 > 0:02:27Why does nobody seem to walk here?

0:02:27 > 0:02:29It's awfully warm and it's awfully spread out.

0:02:29 > 0:02:32- Ah, right.- How many weddings do you carry out a year?

0:02:32 > 0:02:34We do about 300-400 weddings every year.

0:02:34 > 0:02:37How does the city survive in the middle of the desert?

0:02:37 > 0:02:39- We have water.- Where is it come from?- Lake Mead.

0:02:39 > 0:02:42- Can you understand my Scottish accent?- What?- Oh, dear!

0:02:42 > 0:02:45- When's the best time to see Vegas? - Oh, at night.- Really?

0:02:45 > 0:02:48Yeah, you want to see all the lights on the strip here.

0:02:48 > 0:02:50Is this a good dance move...? Oh-ho, hoh!

0:02:50 > 0:02:53So, coming here at this time of day is a bit of a waste of time?

0:02:53 > 0:02:55Not a waste, but not as nice as it could be.

0:02:55 > 0:02:58Should have come six hours later, what was I thinking?

0:02:58 > 0:03:00KLAXON SOUNDS Thanks very much, Jesse,

0:03:00 > 0:03:02but I think I let the team down.

0:03:02 > 0:03:05'And the person who found out the most facts is...

0:03:05 > 0:03:07'Ed!'

0:03:07 > 0:03:09- Yes!- Oh!- Hurray!

0:03:09 > 0:03:12- What facts did you learn? - Loads of good facts!- Like what?

0:03:12 > 0:03:15Er, like, the best time to see Vegas is at night?

0:03:15 > 0:03:17- That's ages away. - Yeah, I know.- Hang on -

0:03:17 > 0:03:19do you know what we need?

0:03:19 > 0:03:21- The magic of television? - Let's do it!

0:03:24 > 0:03:27Ah! Right, I'm going to show you Vegas.

0:03:27 > 0:03:30- Wicked. I've got my walking shoes on. Let's go.- No, no, no.

0:03:30 > 0:03:32You don't walk in Las Vegas. I've organised us some wheels.

0:03:32 > 0:03:36What have you done - got us a pink Cadillac driven by Elvis?!

0:03:36 > 0:03:39# Viva, Las Vegas...! #

0:03:41 > 0:03:44Elvis? Check. Pink Cadillac? Check.

0:03:44 > 0:03:47Time for Ed to show Iain the glitz of the main street in Vegas,

0:03:47 > 0:03:49known as the strip.

0:03:49 > 0:03:53Over there is a pyramid with a light coming out of it,

0:03:53 > 0:03:56that you can see from space. They do it because they can!

0:03:56 > 0:03:59In Vegas, anything's possible. They've got a sphinx.

0:03:59 > 0:04:01It's bigger than the actual Sphinx.

0:04:01 > 0:04:04They've got cities from all over the world,

0:04:04 > 0:04:07- they've built New York. - They've built New York!- Again!

0:04:07 > 0:04:09It wasn't good enough the first time, they had another go.

0:04:09 > 0:04:12They've made New York 2.0, and it's better, in my opinion.

0:04:12 > 0:04:14I've seen the real Statue of Liberty,

0:04:14 > 0:04:16and it's not much bigger than that one.

0:04:16 > 0:04:20They've got an Eiffel Tower that's nearly as big as the one in Paris.

0:04:20 > 0:04:23- It's crazy.- It's sticking out of a hotel called Paris.

0:04:23 > 0:04:26They've got Caesars Palace, which is based on ancient Rome.

0:04:26 > 0:04:30What do you think an ancient Roman would think if they saw all this?

0:04:30 > 0:04:34- They would think, Viva Las Vegas, baby!- Yes!

0:04:34 > 0:04:37# Viva, Las Vegas...! # Vegas! Whoo!

0:04:37 > 0:04:40We're not insane, we're being filmed. Don't worry about us.

0:04:50 > 0:04:53- We are getting an awful lot of attention.- Yeah.

0:04:53 > 0:04:56Because of our A-list... A-list status.

0:04:56 > 0:04:58Hey, guys, hi.

0:04:58 > 0:05:00- I think they recognise us off CBBC. - It might be that,

0:05:00 > 0:05:04or it might be the massive pink Cadillac with Elvis driving.

0:05:04 > 0:05:06No, no, I think they recognise me.

0:05:06 > 0:05:08Whoo! Vegas!

0:05:09 > 0:05:12If the boys get lost, they will always be able to find a room.

0:05:12 > 0:05:16There are over 140,000 hotel and motel rooms available in Vegas.

0:05:16 > 0:05:19Might be difficult to sleep with all those lights...

0:05:19 > 0:05:24The Bellagio Fountain is based on this, like, flat bit of water,

0:05:24 > 0:05:27which is eight acres big.

0:05:27 > 0:05:31Eight acres! That's like the size of Scotland, I think!

0:05:31 > 0:05:34That is so not factually correct!

0:05:34 > 0:05:39I think you'll find that Scotland is 19,460,000 acres in size, Iain!

0:05:39 > 0:05:42Look, there it is, that's the fountain display!

0:05:42 > 0:05:44This fountain is unbelievably cool.

0:05:44 > 0:05:47- Whey! Whey!- Whoa!

0:05:47 > 0:05:50It's SO massive!

0:05:50 > 0:05:53If I could sum Vegas up in one word, it would be...

0:05:53 > 0:05:56absolutely crazy. I know that's two words,

0:05:56 > 0:05:58but one word doesn't do it justice.

0:06:03 > 0:06:07- There's a volcano right behind us! - Ed, I don't think Vegas gets...

0:06:07 > 0:06:09Elvis, drive! There's a volcano behind us!

0:06:09 > 0:06:12Ed, I don't think Vegas gets much more exciting than this.

0:06:12 > 0:06:15I think you'll find it CAN, Iain. I've got one more thing to show you.

0:06:15 > 0:06:17BOTH: Aaagh!

0:06:17 > 0:06:19You know, he's normally wrong, but for once, he's right.

0:06:19 > 0:06:22This is the zip line on Fremont Street.

0:06:22 > 0:06:25Yeah!

0:06:25 > 0:06:27Aagh!

0:06:27 > 0:06:28Agh!

0:06:28 > 0:06:31Viva Las Vegas, baby!

0:06:31 > 0:06:34Vegas! Whoo!

0:06:35 > 0:06:37Ooooh!

0:06:47 > 0:06:50Wow, Ed, I can't believe you're taking me on a day out!

0:06:50 > 0:06:52Just a little thank you for all your hard work.

0:06:52 > 0:06:54But are you sure you can afford this?

0:06:54 > 0:06:57Those boats, they look a million dollars!

0:06:57 > 0:06:59And may I say, Naomi - so do I?

0:06:59 > 0:07:02These shorts cost me a fortune.

0:07:02 > 0:07:04- We must be going somewhere really posh.- We are.

0:07:04 > 0:07:07- I even booked a limo.- Ah! Limo!

0:07:07 > 0:07:10Hang on a minute - we're on a marina.

0:07:10 > 0:07:13- Limos don't float.- Oh? Really?

0:07:15 > 0:07:18This one does. It's called the Nautilimo -

0:07:18 > 0:07:22THE must-have car/boat accessory in ANY marina!

0:07:22 > 0:07:24And it only comes in pink!

0:07:28 > 0:07:31That's three-and-a-bit Eds, to you and me.

0:07:31 > 0:07:33It's based on the luxury 1976 Cadillac,

0:07:33 > 0:07:36and it's the ONLY Nautilimo in the world.

0:07:36 > 0:07:39- Hello, Captain Joe! - Hello, Captain Joe!- Hey!

0:07:39 > 0:07:42- Welcome aboard. - Thank you. This is fancy.

0:07:42 > 0:07:43- Ooh!- Take a seat.

0:07:43 > 0:07:46How are you doing? Nice to have you on board.

0:07:46 > 0:07:49- Ooh, this is better than a normal limo.- Make yourselves comfortable.

0:07:49 > 0:07:52- Ready to go any time you are! - Wow!- I'm ready.

0:07:52 > 0:07:54- Whoo-hoo!- Let's do it.

0:07:57 > 0:08:01Captain Joe has been cruising the Florida Keys for 15 years,

0:08:01 > 0:08:03and his boat/car is probably

0:08:03 > 0:08:07the best place to be seen when you're spotting the local wildlife.

0:08:10 > 0:08:14So, Captain Joe, what sort of sea life might we see today?

0:08:14 > 0:08:17Well, quite often we'll see dolphins out here.

0:08:17 > 0:08:21- And I saw some sea turtles out here a couple of days ago.- Did you?!

0:08:21 > 0:08:25And sometimes you'll see a large tarpon and you'll see its tail

0:08:25 > 0:08:27come up, and they're a good-sized fish - 6-7ft long.

0:08:27 > 0:08:31Now, if you're thinking that this looks a bit warmer than the UK,

0:08:31 > 0:08:33then you'd actually be right!

0:08:33 > 0:08:36It's a proper tropical climate in the Florida Keys,

0:08:36 > 0:08:39with some amazing species of sun-loving fish.

0:08:41 > 0:08:44All this talk of fish has made me a bit hungry.

0:08:44 > 0:08:48Not a problem. Captain Joe - can you take us to Robbie's, please?

0:08:48 > 0:08:50- Oh, is there a restaurant nearby? - Restaurant?

0:08:50 > 0:08:53- Yeah.- No, no. We're not going to eat the fish,

0:08:53 > 0:08:55we're going to feed the fish.

0:08:55 > 0:08:57So, there is a problem - I'm still hungry.

0:08:57 > 0:08:59Details, details...

0:09:06 > 0:09:08Whoo-hoo-hoo!

0:09:08 > 0:09:10- Ooh, thank you, sir. - Welcome to Robbie's.

0:09:10 > 0:09:11Oh!

0:09:13 > 0:09:17These are tarpon fish, and they can grow up to 2.5 metres,

0:09:17 > 0:09:19which is way taller than Ed!

0:09:19 > 0:09:21They like to swim around in shallow, warm water,

0:09:21 > 0:09:23and they're very good at predicting the weather.

0:09:23 > 0:09:26These tarpons have been coming here to Robbie's marina

0:09:26 > 0:09:29for the last 18 years, and get fed by the public daily.

0:09:29 > 0:09:32We're going to feed the tarpons!

0:09:32 > 0:09:34- Huh! They're massive!- I know!

0:09:34 > 0:09:38- Oh, no - is this safe?- Oh, yes, yes, they're very friendly.

0:09:38 > 0:09:41- Really?- In fact it's quite a nice story how they ended up here.

0:09:41 > 0:09:44Robbie found an injured one in the water and nursed it back to health.

0:09:44 > 0:09:47- Aw!- He released it into the wild and it came back with all its friends.

0:09:47 > 0:09:49Aw! Shall we give them a fish, then?

0:09:49 > 0:09:52If I dangle one, they sometimes take them out of your fingers.

0:09:52 > 0:09:53You're brave!

0:09:53 > 0:09:55Haven't they got funny faces?!

0:09:57 > 0:09:59- Agh!- Ah!- Ho-ho!

0:09:59 > 0:10:01Ho-ho-ho-ho!

0:10:05 > 0:10:09SHE LAUGHS AND GASPS

0:10:09 > 0:10:12It's mouth was like that.

0:10:14 > 0:10:17You did quite well for someone who is scared of sharks.

0:10:17 > 0:10:20I am not dangling a fish over here. I'm just going to throw them.

0:10:22 > 0:10:26- Oh, hi, Captain Joe.- Hi, Captain Joe. - We're having so much fun.

0:10:26 > 0:10:29This is terrifying.

0:10:29 > 0:10:31Let's try another one. Let's try another one.

0:10:31 > 0:10:32THEY SCREAM

0:10:37 > 0:10:39Aargh!

0:10:43 > 0:10:45They're used to coming to the surface cos they have to

0:10:45 > 0:10:47- breathe air like us.- Watch, watch.

0:10:47 > 0:10:48Aargh!

0:10:50 > 0:10:53I'm sure that one had teeth. Their eyes are really creepy.

0:10:55 > 0:10:57I can't, I can't, Ed, I can't.

0:11:01 > 0:11:04Captain Joe is here with the Nautilimo which means it is

0:11:04 > 0:11:07- time to go.- Can we go and get something to eat now? I'm starving.

0:11:07 > 0:11:11- Don't worry, I have arranged dinner on the boat.- A slap-up meal too?

0:11:11 > 0:11:16- The perfect end to the perfect date. Oh, thanks, Ed.- That's all right.

0:11:16 > 0:11:18She can finish off the rest of these.

0:11:30 > 0:11:33'Right, Ed, prepare yourself. I'm taking you to Neptune.'

0:11:33 > 0:11:37'What? That's amazing. Right, I'll have to buy a space suit,

0:11:37 > 0:11:39'book a crash course on a spaceflight program,

0:11:39 > 0:11:41'cancel the paperboy.'

0:11:41 > 0:11:43'Ed, Ed, Ed. I meant this. Neptune.

0:11:43 > 0:11:47'Roman god of the sea and here is his statue on Virginia Beach.'

0:11:47 > 0:11:50'Oh, pretty cool. Nice six-pack.'

0:11:50 > 0:11:55'It is made of bronze, clay and plaster and weighs 11,337 kg,

0:11:55 > 0:11:59'which is the same weight as 61,296 tins of tuna.'

0:11:59 > 0:12:02'The sound of the waves made me want to go for a wee. Back in a bit.'

0:12:02 > 0:12:05'Not before you take a closer look.

0:12:05 > 0:12:07'The statue has 12 fish, two dolphins, a turtle,

0:12:07 > 0:12:10'an octopus and a three-pronged trident.

0:12:10 > 0:12:13'The artist used 907 kg of glue just to make this sculpture.'

0:12:13 > 0:12:17'I'm in a sticky situation too. I really need the loo.'

0:12:17 > 0:12:21'And did you know Neptune's head alone is 1.98m tall?

0:12:21 > 0:12:23'That's like nine times the size of your head.

0:12:23 > 0:12:28'Ed? Ed? Ed?

0:12:28 > 0:12:29'Strange.

0:12:29 > 0:12:33'Neptune must have seen all sorts of storms on this beach.

0:12:33 > 0:12:36'I wonder what it would be like to control the weather.'

0:12:36 > 0:12:42If I could control the weather, I would make a spaghetti tornado

0:12:42 > 0:12:45and eat that instead of buying food from the shop.

0:12:46 > 0:12:50I would make it rain and then I would make it

0:12:50 > 0:12:54so windy that everyone with umbrellas would fly up to the sky.

0:12:55 > 0:12:59I would put a rain cloud over my little sister cos she annoys me.

0:13:11 > 0:13:14A hot dog without garnish is a very lonely thing.

0:13:14 > 0:13:18It asks the question of us all, "What will I cover you in?"

0:13:18 > 0:13:19It's a riddle we must face

0:13:19 > 0:13:21as through our mind the options race.

0:13:21 > 0:13:25What will I smear up on you until I put you in my face?

0:13:25 > 0:13:30But we know the true secret that will never leave us flustered.

0:13:30 > 0:13:33To make you taste just quite the thing, we must...

0:13:33 > 0:13:34BOTH: Cover you with mustard.

0:13:36 > 0:13:38You enjoy that, you hot dog.

0:13:50 > 0:13:51So, Barry.

0:13:51 > 0:13:54Do I call you Barry or I know some people call you Mustard Man?

0:13:54 > 0:13:56Yes, or Colonel Mustard. Either one.

0:13:56 > 0:13:59- Colonel Mustard. - I like Colonel Mustard.

0:13:59 > 0:14:01- So, Colonel Mustard, sir.- Yes?

0:14:01 > 0:14:05- I understand you've got 5,469 mustards in your collection.- We do.

0:14:05 > 0:14:08It's the world's largest collection of mustards and mustard memorabilia.

0:14:08 > 0:14:12I see you have got a lot of mustards from France, miscellaneous

0:14:12 > 0:14:15foreign mustards. Where are all your American mustards?

0:14:15 > 0:14:18Well, in the museum we have the great wall of mustard.

0:14:20 > 0:14:24- I have to see this.- I have to see this.- I'll take you.- Let's go.

0:14:24 > 0:14:25If you don't like mustard,

0:14:25 > 0:14:28you can blame those hotheads the Romans because it's thought

0:14:28 > 0:14:31they were the first to use the seeds from the mustard plant.

0:14:31 > 0:14:35The mustard we now know and possibly even like is made from the seeds

0:14:35 > 0:14:38mixed into a paste with all sorts of other spices and flavourings.

0:14:38 > 0:14:41The USA grows almost 1,012,000,000 square metres' worth

0:14:41 > 0:14:43of mustard seed a year.

0:14:48 > 0:14:53I guess the only way to get to know mustard any better is to taste it.

0:14:53 > 0:14:55If we must...ard.

0:14:56 > 0:14:59This is Mustard Chef.

0:14:59 > 0:15:01Gregg and John are about to sample

0:15:01 > 0:15:06a smooth reduction of Dijon mustard served on a bed of marinated wasabi

0:15:06 > 0:15:11mustard, finished off with a Hawaiian pineapple mustard coulis

0:15:11 > 0:15:14and drizzled with a smoky garlic mustard.

0:15:14 > 0:15:17I think I'm going to be sick.

0:15:17 > 0:15:20This dish is a triumph, it tantalises the taste buds

0:15:20 > 0:15:23and it suddenly gives your palate a proper pounding.

0:15:23 > 0:15:25This is art on a plate, Gregg,

0:15:25 > 0:15:28and it's going to change this contestants life for ever.

0:15:28 > 0:15:30- Giblets.- Excuse me?

0:15:30 > 0:15:33This dish would go well with giblets.

0:15:33 > 0:15:36Mustard surely has to be the king of condiments but this is Mustard Chef.

0:15:36 > 0:15:38This is cooking as tough as it gets.

0:15:38 > 0:15:40This dish is world-class.

0:15:40 > 0:15:43It is mustard with muscle.

0:15:43 > 0:15:46Cut. Thanks, lads, that's lunch.

0:15:46 > 0:15:48You overcome with emotion, Gregg?

0:15:48 > 0:15:51I think someone undercooked their mustard.

0:15:51 > 0:15:52I need a bucket, I need a bucket.

0:15:52 > 0:15:55HE WRETCHES

0:15:55 > 0:15:57You put your own twist on that dish, Gregg.

0:15:57 > 0:16:00You added a splash of colour there. Genius.

0:16:00 > 0:16:02So, Barry, why are we wearing these uniforms?

0:16:02 > 0:16:05Well, we are here at America's mustard college Poupon U

0:16:05 > 0:16:07and we're about to have perhaps a graduation ceremony.

0:16:07 > 0:16:10- No-one's pooping on me.- Poop on you. - No, poop on you.

0:16:10 > 0:16:11Well, it's called that because

0:16:11 > 0:16:15Grey Poupon is one the world's great mustards so Poupon U.

0:16:15 > 0:16:19- Ah.- Like Poupon University. - Of course. Poupon U.

0:16:19 > 0:16:22And we even have a cheer. So shall we do it?

0:16:22 > 0:16:23- Yes.- OK.

0:16:23 > 0:16:26# Who needs Harvard? Who needs Yale?

0:16:26 > 0:16:28# At Poupon U, you'll never fail

0:16:28 > 0:16:31# Stanford, Princeton, big mistake

0:16:31 > 0:16:34# Poupon U's a piece of cake! #

0:16:34 > 0:16:37You've done it! You have graduated!

0:16:37 > 0:16:38- Oh, really?- Oh, yes!

0:16:38 > 0:16:39How many people have graduated?

0:16:39 > 0:16:41- All of them.- I'm not surprised.- Yes!

0:16:47 > 0:16:50Next up, its some art that is streets ahead of the rest.

0:16:59 > 0:17:03# Calling out from Detroit's East Side

0:17:03 > 0:17:06# On an eye-catching street Was a doddle to find

0:17:06 > 0:17:10# Cos there's art installations in the vacant lots

0:17:10 > 0:17:14# The road is even covered in polka dots

0:17:14 > 0:17:18# The whole thing is named after the street it stands on

0:17:18 > 0:17:23# The Heidelberg Project and it's pretty hands-on, yeah

0:17:30 > 0:17:33# Tyree Guyton grew up in this neighbourhood

0:17:33 > 0:17:37# It was getting run-down Wanted to do some good

0:17:37 > 0:17:41# To improve people's lives through the power of art

0:17:41 > 0:17:45# And using discarded objects he made a start

0:17:45 > 0:17:49# It's clear he took the most of this opportunity

0:17:49 > 0:17:53# To make an art environment in an urban community

0:17:53 > 0:17:55# Enhancing

0:17:55 > 0:17:57# Enhancing Heidelberg Street

0:18:00 > 0:18:04# Redecoration and artistic creation

0:18:04 > 0:18:08# Enhancing Heidelberg Street

0:18:08 > 0:18:12# There's 78 houses on the street

0:18:12 > 0:18:16# And works of art right beneath your feet

0:18:16 > 0:18:19# Homes decorated in colourful ways

0:18:19 > 0:18:24# A vacuum cleaner lawn and a door display

0:18:24 > 0:18:27# Art out of objects that have been reused

0:18:27 > 0:18:31# There's even a tree decorated with shoes

0:18:31 > 0:18:34# Enhancing

0:18:34 > 0:18:36# Enhancing Heidelberg Street

0:18:39 > 0:18:43# It's a celebration of innovation

0:18:43 > 0:18:45# Enhancing Heidelberg Street

0:18:47 > 0:18:50# It doesn't matter where you look

0:18:50 > 0:18:54# It's a truly artistic scene

0:18:54 > 0:18:58# Come on, everybody Crack open the paint... #

0:18:58 > 0:19:01- I bought white with a hint of cream. - What?

0:19:01 > 0:19:04Well, when you said we'd be decorating the houses, I thought,

0:19:04 > 0:19:08"You know, magnolia, it's very neutral, it goes with anything."

0:19:08 > 0:19:10# Enhancing

0:19:10 > 0:19:13# Enhancing Heidelberg Street

0:19:15 > 0:19:19# A transformation for the population

0:19:19 > 0:19:22# Enhancing Heidelberg Street

0:19:23 > 0:19:27# Out of depravation an art sensation

0:19:27 > 0:19:29# Enhancing Heidelberg Street

0:19:31 > 0:19:35# A standing ovation for this cool location

0:19:35 > 0:19:37# Enhancing Heidelberg Street. #

0:19:50 > 0:19:54Ah, the fourth of July, Independence Day in America.

0:19:54 > 0:19:58I tell you what, Egg Petrie, I am so egg-cited to be here.

0:19:58 > 0:20:00Eggs-actly, Johny.

0:20:00 > 0:20:03I think the town of Oatman in Arizona is a very eggs-otic place

0:20:03 > 0:20:05and we're going to have an egg-cellent time.

0:20:05 > 0:20:07Well, I don't like to eggs-aggerate

0:20:07 > 0:20:12but I do think it's going to be an amazing eggs-perience.

0:20:12 > 0:20:14Yeah, finally an eggs-ercise we can egg-cel in.

0:20:14 > 0:20:17I think we're going to be eggs-perts at this.

0:20:17 > 0:20:20Oh, please, guys, enough with the puns already.

0:20:20 > 0:20:23I'll eggs-plain what's going on.

0:20:23 > 0:20:26Welcome to the one-street town of Oatman, where every year

0:20:26 > 0:20:29hundreds of people from all over the USA and other parts of the world

0:20:29 > 0:20:33come to fry eggs on the pavement in the baking-hot midday sun.

0:20:33 > 0:20:37It has only rained three times since the event began 22 years ago.

0:20:39 > 0:20:41And this is one of them.

0:20:41 > 0:20:43Still, 18 keen fryers have turned out for the competition

0:20:43 > 0:20:45but is it hot enough?

0:20:45 > 0:20:47The man who can answer the question - Fried Egg.

0:20:47 > 0:20:49Sorry, Fred Egg.

0:20:49 > 0:20:51Sorry, Fred Eck.

0:20:51 > 0:20:54Is it possible, Fred, to fry an egg on the sidewalk?

0:20:54 > 0:20:58Oh, absolutely. If it's 158.6 degrees Fahrenheit

0:20:58 > 0:21:00but, unfortunately, today, with the overcast,

0:21:00 > 0:21:02we're probably not going to get that.

0:21:02 > 0:21:05So therefore we are going to have to judge it on some

0:21:05 > 0:21:06sort of device you can create.

0:21:06 > 0:21:09What is the best way to make a device?

0:21:09 > 0:21:11You get some sort of solar device, concave mirror,

0:21:11 > 0:21:15aluminium foil, magnifying glasses, all that sort of thing,

0:21:15 > 0:21:17then you can fry that egg cos you only have 15 minutes

0:21:17 > 0:21:20so it has to be something that can create something hot.

0:21:20 > 0:21:23Right, we'd better get planning these inventions then.

0:21:23 > 0:21:25I'll see what I can throw together in, you know, five minutes.

0:21:25 > 0:21:28- I haven't given it a lot of thought, really.- Me either.

0:21:28 > 0:21:30Previously on All Over The Place.

0:21:30 > 0:21:33Ed Petrie - a man on a secret mission

0:21:33 > 0:21:36that he kept secret even from himself.

0:21:36 > 0:21:38No, no, I can only use the power of the sun.

0:21:38 > 0:21:41I can't use an electric hob.

0:21:41 > 0:21:44Johny Pitts - a man who could shape his own destiny

0:21:44 > 0:21:46like it was putty in his hands.

0:21:46 > 0:21:49Just that the end result would look a bit messy.

0:21:49 > 0:21:53No, no, it's definitely wasn't pegs, OK, it was eggs.

0:21:53 > 0:21:55Mate, it's your call. At the end of the day,

0:21:55 > 0:21:59you won't be represented in the Oatman egg frying championships,

0:21:59 > 0:22:00will you? It's your loss.

0:22:00 > 0:22:03These were men who really didn't have the faintest clue

0:22:03 > 0:22:07but still somehow managed the most basic tasks of daily life,

0:22:07 > 0:22:13like breathing and putting on their pants. But now they had a plan.

0:22:13 > 0:22:15So, it's the day before the Oatman egg frying

0:22:15 > 0:22:17and I'm just doing a little bit of forward planning.

0:22:17 > 0:22:21It's not cheating, it's just preparation.

0:22:23 > 0:22:26Right, between you and me, I am going to get a bit of a head start

0:22:26 > 0:22:28on Ed Petrie in this egg frying malarkey.

0:22:28 > 0:22:31So I have prepared a few things. Don't tell him.

0:22:31 > 0:22:36I've got lots and lots of foil because I like shiny things.

0:22:36 > 0:22:39Firstly, to reflect the heat of the sun and create a laser,

0:22:39 > 0:22:41I've got a mirror.

0:22:42 > 0:22:44Oh, wow.

0:22:44 > 0:22:46This bit of foil, this bit of foil.

0:22:49 > 0:22:51Stunning.

0:22:51 > 0:22:53This bit of foil and some foil.

0:22:53 > 0:22:56I got this from my dad's car.

0:22:56 > 0:22:57I've also got an umbrella.

0:22:59 > 0:23:02I've prepared all this stuff and Ed is coming into

0:23:02 > 0:23:04this competition not knowing what's going on.

0:23:04 > 0:23:07I am going to be the egg frying champion. Bring it on.

0:23:07 > 0:23:08Can't wait till tomorrow.

0:23:08 > 0:23:10Oh, this is going to be brilliant.

0:23:10 > 0:23:14Johny hasn't got a clue what's going to hit him. See you tomorrow.

0:23:15 > 0:23:18That's quite funky, where did you get that from?

0:23:18 > 0:23:20It's part of my egg-frying device.

0:23:20 > 0:23:23That looks like it took longer than five minutes to make.

0:23:23 > 0:23:26- Yeah, I put it together last night. - Last...? You cheater.

0:23:26 > 0:23:28You said you're just going to take five minutes to make it.

0:23:28 > 0:23:32What about you? What is this, man in the mirror?

0:23:32 > 0:23:34When did you put that together?

0:23:34 > 0:23:39- Last night.- Exactly.- I worked really hard on it actually.- I thought so.

0:23:39 > 0:23:40How does it work anyway?

0:23:40 > 0:23:44All this is to catch all the sun, all the lovely sun rays...

0:23:44 > 0:23:47- Loads of that around today(!) - ..and reflect and cook the egg.

0:23:47 > 0:23:51Let's put your inventions to the test. Here are the rules.

0:23:51 > 0:23:55You have 15 minutes to fry your eggs using your home-made cooking devices

0:23:55 > 0:23:58and only the power of the rain, sorry, I mean, sun, the sun.

0:23:58 > 0:24:01No electricity, gas or fire is allowed.

0:24:05 > 0:24:09Best of luck, lads. Get cracking and may the best man 'rain' supreme.

0:24:09 > 0:24:11Let's have an egg-fry!

0:24:11 > 0:24:13You've got to admire their optimism that this is going ahead.

0:24:13 > 0:24:18Five, four, three, two, one.

0:24:18 > 0:24:19GUNSHOT

0:24:19 > 0:24:21I wasn't expecting that.

0:24:23 > 0:24:26This is obviously going to be a complete disaster

0:24:26 > 0:24:28but I'll have a go anyway.

0:24:30 > 0:24:31I'll get the water out.

0:24:31 > 0:24:34The average egg fries at 158 degrees Fahrenheit

0:24:34 > 0:24:37which is nearly at the temperature water boils.

0:24:37 > 0:24:39If the boys think that their eggs will get that hot

0:24:39 > 0:24:41they must be 'yolking'.

0:24:41 > 0:24:44Directing the sun's rays into this umbrella here.

0:24:44 > 0:24:47I'm going to capture all the heat that is around today.

0:24:50 > 0:24:54I meant it to be like this. I prefer it raw. That's kind of why.

0:24:54 > 0:24:58It's a one-way ticket to food poisoning you got there, Johny.

0:25:02 > 0:25:03Because it's Independence Day,

0:25:03 > 0:25:07hopefully I might get a few more points if I wave this.

0:25:07 > 0:25:09Desperate manoeuvres by Ed.

0:25:09 > 0:25:12I don't have to worry about all that kind of stuff

0:25:12 > 0:25:15cos I think my contraption here speaks for itself. Look.

0:25:15 > 0:25:18- It's clearly speaking. - I can hear it. What's it saying?

0:25:18 > 0:25:20- It's saying... - "Oh, I'm rubbish."- It's saying...

0:25:20 > 0:25:24- "I'm really badly designed." - "I'm a lot better than Ed's."

0:25:24 > 0:25:27This is a spy gun and it tells you the temperature of what your pan is.

0:25:27 > 0:25:29What temperature am I cooking at?

0:25:29 > 0:25:32Sir, you're cooking at 74 and, matter of fact,

0:25:32 > 0:25:35your mate here is at 73.

0:25:35 > 0:25:37- So, his is worse than mine. - Yes, yes, he is.

0:25:37 > 0:25:39Interesting. Interesting.

0:25:39 > 0:25:43The ground temperature is 79 so you guys should have it on the ground.

0:25:43 > 0:25:45So we are actually making it cooler?

0:25:45 > 0:25:47You're actually making it cooler by being in the air.

0:25:47 > 0:25:51We've created an egg-freezing device. Brilliant.

0:25:51 > 0:25:53Egg-cellent. They are getting on so well.

0:25:53 > 0:25:57I thought the boys were going to be all competitive and... Oh, come on.

0:25:57 > 0:25:59Don't get all het up. No-one likes a bad egg.

0:25:59 > 0:26:01If I breathe on it will that warm it up?

0:26:01 > 0:26:03Or cool it down? I don't know.

0:26:05 > 0:26:07Come on, the sun!

0:26:07 > 0:26:10Ten, nine, eight...

0:26:10 > 0:26:11Eight seconds left.

0:26:11 > 0:26:13Seven, six...

0:26:13 > 0:26:15You could cut the tension with a knife.

0:26:15 > 0:26:18Three, two, one.

0:26:20 > 0:26:24- Two very uncooked eggs. - I don't think we did very well.

0:26:24 > 0:26:25But it was a losing battle.

0:26:25 > 0:26:29The guy next to me has actually managed to cook his egg a tiny bit.

0:26:29 > 0:26:31- That is incredible. - How do you think we did?

0:26:32 > 0:26:36We obviously did appallingly but then so did everyone else.

0:26:36 > 0:26:38- So, you know.- Best of the worst.

0:26:38 > 0:26:41I think it all hinges on who has got the best-looking device.

0:26:41 > 0:26:44Ah, feeling lucky, boys, are we?

0:26:44 > 0:26:46Well, there is a prize for the best device.

0:26:46 > 0:26:48Unfortunately neither of you have won it.

0:26:48 > 0:26:50It was the same guy who won the best egg fry.

0:26:50 > 0:26:53Don't beat yourself up about it.

0:26:53 > 0:26:56That was good. He did deserve to win best device, I think.

0:26:56 > 0:26:59It was. It was a very good device, weren't it?

0:26:59 > 0:27:01I still think my device was better than yours.

0:27:01 > 0:27:04No way, I put a lot more effort and time into my device.

0:27:04 > 0:27:07I think that has really spoken volumes. It's got two flags.

0:27:07 > 0:27:09- What has yours got?- It's got...

0:27:09 > 0:27:12- It's a silver umbrella. How cool is that?- Who wants a silver umbrella?

0:27:12 > 0:27:16- Let's find out what Fred thinks, shall we?- Yeah, let's! Yeah. OK.

0:27:16 > 0:27:19Fred, I know the weather meant that neither of us could cook an egg

0:27:19 > 0:27:21but who created the best device?

0:27:21 > 0:27:24Well, in my opinion, after doing this for 22 years,

0:27:24 > 0:27:27and I've seen a lot of these devices being made and built

0:27:27 > 0:27:30and used, the overall device would actually have to go to Johny.

0:27:30 > 0:27:34- Yes! Thank you, Fred. Put it there. - Thank you very much.

0:27:34 > 0:27:35Ed, thank you so much.

0:27:35 > 0:27:38Well, at least my device is still useful.

0:27:38 > 0:27:40You can walk home on your own, in the rain.

0:27:40 > 0:27:42Yes, but at least I'll be walking home a champion.

0:27:42 > 0:27:43A wet champion!

0:27:43 > 0:27:47You all been watching All Over The Place USA.
