0:00:37 > 0:00:40# All over the place

0:00:43 > 0:00:47- # But it turns up... - # ..all over the place! #
0:00:47 > 0:00:50Let's join Ed and Johny in the US State that has the most
0:00:50 > 0:00:52national parks, Arizona.
0:00:52 > 0:00:55I can't believe you've taken me to Tucson to see some of the biggest celebrities in the USA.
0:00:55 > 0:00:58Oh, yes, I thought they'd be in New York or LA or somewhere.
0:00:58 > 0:01:02No, the biggest celebrities are right here. Ta-da!
0:01:03 > 0:01:05Ah, so they're in the planes?
0:01:05 > 0:01:08They're not in the planes, they ARE the planes. This is celebrity row.
0:01:08 > 0:01:09At the aeroplane boneyard.
0:01:09 > 0:01:12It's the final resting place of some of the most famous
0:01:12 > 0:01:16- planes in the world. Whoa-a-a! - Whoa-a-a!
0:01:16 > 0:01:18This is your captain speaking.
0:01:18 > 0:01:21We've touched down in the airplane boneyard where
0:01:21 > 0:01:24US and European military planes come to retire.
0:01:24 > 0:01:26There's 4,200 of them here.
0:01:26 > 0:01:29Celebrity row is where all the big-name planes hang out
0:01:29 > 0:01:32and to find out more, we've flown in two of the greatest
0:01:32 > 0:01:36Hollywood celebrity plane reporters for all the hot gossip.
0:01:36 > 0:01:39Hi there, I'm Ed Edberger.
0:01:39 > 0:01:41And I'm Johny Do-you-want fries-with-that.
0:01:41 > 0:01:44And we're bringing you all the latest gossip
0:01:44 > 0:01:47- direct from celebrity row.- Coming up, I speak to Eddie Edberger.
0:01:47 > 0:01:50And I speak to Johny Do-you-want fries-with-that.
0:01:50 > 0:01:53And we both speak to the stars of the aeroplane boneyard
0:01:53 > 0:01:56to bring you all the latest news on what's hot on celebrity row.
0:01:56 > 0:01:58I'm hot.
0:01:58 > 0:02:00You don't count, you're not a plane, Eddie Edberger.
0:02:00 > 0:02:01THEY LAUGH
0:02:01 > 0:02:07First up, it's the comeback kid of the boneyard. The LC-130 Hercules.
0:02:07 > 0:02:10It was built with skis.
0:02:10 > 0:02:11Skis on a plane?
0:02:11 > 0:02:15Yes indeed, Eddie Edberger, so it could land at the Antarctic
0:02:15 > 0:02:17and resupply a scientific base there.
0:02:17 > 0:02:18Unfortunately it did crash
0:02:18 > 0:02:22and it sank into the ice where it stayed for 17 cold, dark years.
0:02:22 > 0:02:25Oof, that's got to hurt.
0:02:25 > 0:02:29But it was rescued and now it can bathe in the warm Arizona sunshine.
0:02:29 > 0:02:31Now that's my kind of retirement plan.
0:02:31 > 0:02:33THEY LAUGH
0:02:33 > 0:02:34I did a joke.
0:02:34 > 0:02:38- Mine was kind of better.- It wasn't necessarily.- It really was.
0:02:38 > 0:02:42Right, now we're looking at a plane that would win any beauty contest.
0:02:42 > 0:02:46Ain't she a beaut? This is the F/A-18 Hornet.
0:02:46 > 0:02:50Now that's one fast plane with a top speed of Mach 1.8 that's
0:02:50 > 0:02:52nearly twice the speed of sound.
0:02:52 > 0:02:55HE MOUTHS
0:02:55 > 0:02:57Wow.
0:02:57 > 0:03:00Even faster than that, Johny do-you-want-fries-with-that?
0:03:03 > 0:03:06Who are those weird-looking blokes over there with the TV crew?
0:03:06 > 0:03:09I've got no idea but that dude is rocking that bowtie.
0:03:09 > 0:03:11Well, I bet they haven't got backstage access
0:03:11 > 0:03:13and an exclusive interview lined up.
0:03:13 > 0:03:17Actually, we better hurry, they might get there before us.
0:03:20 > 0:03:23You wouldn't want to forget where you'd parked in here, would you?
0:03:23 > 0:03:25No. It's just endless.
0:03:25 > 0:03:27What's amazing is to think of all these planes
0:03:27 > 0:03:30and think I wonder how much of the world they've seen.
0:03:30 > 0:03:33They'll have been everywhere. I wonder where each one's been.
0:03:33 > 0:03:36It's like something from a science fiction film. Doesn't look real.
0:03:36 > 0:03:38It's like a giant power laser or something.
0:03:38 > 0:03:40If you borrowed one, went on holiday,
0:03:40 > 0:03:43- I don't think anyone would notice. - I don't think they'd miss one.
0:03:43 > 0:03:46I spy with my little eye something beginning with P.
0:03:46 > 0:03:52- Er, potato?- No.- P?- Yeah.- I've got it, I've definitely got it.
0:03:52 > 0:03:54- What is it?- Propeller.- Oh, dear.
0:03:55 > 0:03:59- You must know. Surely you must know. - Er...pants.
0:03:59 > 0:04:02- Oh, I'm stuck in the boneyard with an idiot.- Poo?- No!- P for pathetic.
0:04:02 > 0:04:05Let's talk to someone who knows what he's talking about.
0:04:05 > 0:04:08So, Colonel, what have all these planes done wrong to end up here?
0:04:08 > 0:04:09They come here to retire.
0:04:09 > 0:04:12I thought they were just badly designed I notice none of them have got windows.
0:04:12 > 0:04:15Well, that's because we take part from these aircraft and then
0:04:15 > 0:04:18we will use them again in other craft that we're still flying today.
0:04:18 > 0:04:21So have any celebrities visited the boneyard, apart from us?
0:04:21 > 0:04:22Obviously!
0:04:22 > 0:04:25We have Megan Fox and Shia LaBeouf from Transformers 2.
0:04:25 > 0:04:28- You may have seen the movie.- So they actually shot Transformers here?
0:04:28 > 0:04:29They did. Right over there.
0:04:29 > 0:04:33- How do you keep them in such pristine condition?- We apply this coating.
0:04:33 > 0:04:36It's a latex coating that protect and preserves the aircraft.
0:04:36 > 0:04:39I don't suppose you're spraying any of these planes today, are you?
0:04:39 > 0:04:44- We are.- Can we help?- Absolutely. Are you ready to go?
0:04:44 > 0:04:47- Are you ready?- Am I ever? - I was born ready.- You born ready?
0:04:47 > 0:04:48All right, let's go.
0:04:48 > 0:04:52All right, Joe, top aeroplane sprayer, shows the boys what to do.
0:04:52 > 0:04:54I thought we were supposed to be spraying a plane.
0:04:54 > 0:04:56Yeah, I did too. Joe, what's this?
0:04:56 > 0:05:00Well, what we have here is we have a cocooned set of 130 wings.
0:05:00 > 0:05:02So this is a bit of a plane?
0:05:02 > 0:05:03This is a bit of a plane.
0:05:03 > 0:05:06Oh, good, so long as I'm spraying a plane. That's the main thing.
0:05:09 > 0:05:11Johny, I've done my name on the side of a plane. That is bling.
0:05:11 > 0:05:13How did you do that?
0:05:15 > 0:05:18- JP.- First, they spray a black coating.
0:05:18 > 0:05:21Then a white coating which protects the planes from dust
0:05:21 > 0:05:25and the heat of the sun. I get it. It's like airplane sunscreen.
0:05:25 > 0:05:29It looks like I've just painted a plane for the US Air Force.
0:05:29 > 0:05:31Yes. Our masterpiece is complete.
0:05:31 > 0:05:34Hey, isn't that Ed Petrie and Johny Pitts off the TV?
0:05:35 > 0:05:40Yeah, I think you're right. What do you say, shall we get an exclusive interview with them?
0:05:40 > 0:05:43No, no-one cares about them. I'm going to talk to this guy instead.
0:05:43 > 0:05:46Can I have a few words with you please, sir?
0:05:46 > 0:05:47Hey, you, big nose!
0:05:47 > 0:05:50With the sunscreen, I'm talking to you.
0:05:50 > 0:05:51Well, we're out of here.
0:05:51 > 0:05:55Time sure does fly when you're having fun. Don't go changing.
0:06:02 > 0:06:03Chicago Illinois.
0:06:05 > 0:06:06All hail, Celicus.
0:06:06 > 0:06:09All hail, Edicus. How fare thee?
0:06:09 > 0:06:10I fare well, Celicus.
0:06:10 > 0:06:12Although I am slightly confused?
0:06:12 > 0:06:13Confused? How's that?
0:06:13 > 0:06:16Well, I was told to come to Chicago dressed as a Roman
0:06:16 > 0:06:17and call you Celicus.
0:06:17 > 0:06:20But I have seen no reason why we are dressed as Romans.
0:06:20 > 0:06:22Apart from the fact that we are standing next to a slightly
0:06:22 > 0:06:24Roman looking building.
0:06:24 > 0:06:26Indeed, for there is no other possible connection
0:06:26 > 0:06:29between ancient Rome and Chicago that I can think of.
0:06:29 > 0:06:31And even that is a bit flimsy.
0:06:31 > 0:06:36Celicus, I suspect that someone is having a laugh at our expense.
0:06:36 > 0:06:38- It was Me-icus. - BOTH: Voice-over man!
0:06:38 > 0:06:41- Oh! Come down here! - I used to like you!
0:06:41 > 0:06:44I always said I would never appear on television in a toga!
0:06:44 > 0:06:45Ha ha!
0:06:45 > 0:06:48This Roman looking building doesn't just attract strange
0:06:48 > 0:06:50toga-wearing CBBC presenters.
0:06:50 > 0:06:53But also has visits from Rams, Jaguars, Lions and Panthers.
0:06:53 > 0:06:55No, it's not a zoo.
0:06:55 > 0:06:57This is Soldier Field where the American football team
0:06:57 > 0:06:59the Chicago Bears play.
0:06:59 > 0:07:04Ed and Cel, you have 55 seconds each to find out as much as you can
0:07:04 > 0:07:07about Soldier Field and the Chicago Bears.
0:07:07 > 0:07:11Ed, you have John who knows all about Soldier Field Stadium.
0:07:11 > 0:07:15Cel, you've got Pat who's an expert on the Chicago Bears.
0:07:15 > 0:07:18Whoever finds out the most facts is the winner
0:07:18 > 0:07:22and will get to watch the Chicago Bears train, free.
0:07:22 > 0:07:25You mean the actual Chicago Bears? Who play here? That's amazing.
0:07:25 > 0:07:28Well, we better get a move on, the training ground's miles away.
0:07:28 > 0:07:29Yes, go, go, go!
0:07:30 > 0:07:33Why is the stadium called Soldier Field?
0:07:33 > 0:07:36The stadium is dedicated to the men and women of the Armed Forces.
0:07:36 > 0:07:39So at the end of the season what are you all playing to get?
0:07:39 > 0:07:41- The Lombardi Trophy. - And you've won it once?- Yes.
0:07:41 > 0:07:44- Do you think you're going to win it again?- Yes.- When was it built?
0:07:44 > 0:07:48- 1924.- What does NFL stand for? - National Football League.
0:07:48 > 0:07:50- What's the pitch made out of? - Grass. Natural grass.
0:07:50 > 0:07:52- You're one of the owners, aren't you?- Yes.
0:07:52 > 0:07:55- You think I could maybe own Chicago Bears with you?- No.
0:07:55 > 0:07:57Do you think that I could play professional American football?
0:07:57 > 0:07:59- Anybody can play.- Really?- Yes. - Great.
0:07:59 > 0:08:01- So do you think I could be a Bear?- No.
0:08:01 > 0:08:03Er, can I get some free tickets?
0:08:03 > 0:08:06- We'll look into that.- Do you think I could help win the trophy?- No.
0:08:06 > 0:08:09- Are you sure?- Yes.- This isn't going well for me...
0:08:09 > 0:08:10KLAXON
0:08:12 > 0:08:15- I think we did quite well there, Pat. - Good.- I like them answers.
0:08:15 > 0:08:19We had calm and reserved. Ed, you better watch out.
0:08:19 > 0:08:24- The person who found out the most facts is...Ed.- What?- Yes!
0:08:24 > 0:08:27Oh, yes, I get to see the Chicago Bears train, how cool is that?
0:08:28 > 0:08:30- Oh, are you disappointed?- Yeah.
0:08:30 > 0:08:33Oh, look at his little face.
0:08:33 > 0:08:37- Well, look, maybe they'll let you in as well?- Are you sure?- I'll ask.
0:08:37 > 0:08:39How could they refuse? How could they refuse?
0:08:41 > 0:08:43The Bears are one of American footballs oldest,
0:08:43 > 0:08:45toughest and most famous teams.
0:08:45 > 0:08:48They've won the game's ultimate prize, the Lombardi Trophy,
0:08:48 > 0:08:50which is also known as the Super Bowl.
0:08:50 > 0:08:55Last year over 110 million people watched the Super Bowl on TV.
0:08:55 > 0:08:58That's about double the population of England and Wales.
0:08:58 > 0:09:01- I don't really understand.- This is something to do with the throw-in.
0:09:01 > 0:09:05That over there, I don't know, a scrum-type thing? A touchdown!
0:09:05 > 0:09:07I think we need to find people to understand what's going on.
0:09:07 > 0:09:09Shall we go ask someone? Let's have a little search.
0:09:09 > 0:09:12While these two get kitted up, I'll try to explain.
0:09:12 > 0:09:15American football is a bit like rugby but played by people who
0:09:15 > 0:09:17look like gladiators.
0:09:17 > 0:09:20They try to get the ball behind the other team's line by kicking,
0:09:20 > 0:09:22running or throwing it. And looking really, really scary.
0:09:22 > 0:09:23Like this big guy.
0:09:23 > 0:09:28Israel. He weighs a whopping 125kg.
0:09:28 > 0:09:31That's the same as 312 tins of baked beans!
0:09:31 > 0:09:33What do your positions involve?
0:09:33 > 0:09:36My job is to beat a guy that's about 350lb.
0:09:36 > 0:09:39Get him out of the way and tackle the quarterback.
0:09:39 > 0:09:40Robbie is much lighter.
0:09:40 > 0:09:42And weights 84kg
0:09:42 > 0:09:45which is only 210 tins of beans.
0:09:45 > 0:09:48I'm the guy that kicks the ball through the uprights,
0:09:48 > 0:09:50the little pegs.
0:09:50 > 0:09:52Almost like rugby where they dropkick it.
0:09:52 > 0:09:53This is called a field goal
0:09:53 > 0:09:55which is worth three points.
0:09:55 > 0:09:57And a touchdown is worth six points.
0:09:57 > 0:09:59The team which scores the most points wins the game.
0:09:59 > 0:10:02What's the best thing about being an American footballer?
0:10:02 > 0:10:04I think definitely playing the game on Sundays.
0:10:04 > 0:10:08When you come out of the tunnel and you have thousands of fans
0:10:08 > 0:10:10screaming and cheering and the excitement.
0:10:10 > 0:10:13The city supporting you and just to win football games
0:10:13 > 0:10:16and have that support and that love, there's no better feeling.
0:10:16 > 0:10:17- The money?- The money's great, too.
0:10:17 > 0:10:19THEY LAUGH
0:10:19 > 0:10:21The highest paid American footballers earn as much
0:10:21 > 0:10:29as a monumental 20 million per year which is about £12,620,000.
0:10:29 > 0:10:31Can I just, can we just compare arms quickly here? Look at that.
0:10:31 > 0:10:33I don't want to look at it!
0:10:33 > 0:10:35Most professional American football players
0:10:35 > 0:10:38start playing in the football little leagues at five years old.
0:10:38 > 0:10:41So trying to play with no experience at all, Ed, might be tricky.
0:10:41 > 0:10:43So you go on this side.
0:10:43 > 0:10:45- So I kick it at the bottom or in the middle?- The bottom.
0:10:45 > 0:10:47OK, here we go.
0:10:49 > 0:10:51- Oh, yeah, it's going.- Yeah!
0:10:54 > 0:10:57- Could you teach me how to tackle Ed? - Absolutely. If I'm tackling,
0:10:57 > 0:11:00- head up, come in. Pick you up. OK?- Right.
0:11:02 > 0:11:06I was a bit heavy there, wasn't I? I could see you struggling there.
0:11:06 > 0:11:09THEY GRUNT
0:11:09 > 0:11:10That was so easy.
0:11:10 > 0:11:13HE CONTINUES TO GRUNT
0:11:14 > 0:11:18So, Ed, do you think we've done enough to play for the Chicago Bears?
0:11:18 > 0:11:19I think that might be stretching it.
0:11:19 > 0:11:22- We could play for the Orlando Artichokes.- You reckon?
0:11:22 > 0:11:27- Or the Miami Bell Ringers.- What?- Or maybe the Harrisburg Chameleons.
0:11:27 > 0:11:29Are these real teams? They sound like they could be.
0:11:29 > 0:11:31No, I've just made them up. Touchdown!
0:11:42 > 0:11:45Miami, Florida.
0:11:45 > 0:11:50- Welcome to Welcome, Ed. - Don't you mean welcome to Miami?
0:11:50 > 0:11:53Well, I'm welcoming you to Welcome which is the name of this
0:11:53 > 0:11:57- statue behind me and it's welcoming you to Miami.- Oh, now I get it.
0:11:57 > 0:12:00Bienvenue to Welcome.
0:12:00 > 0:12:04Welcome was made in 2004 by the artist Romero Britto.
0:12:04 > 0:12:06Bienvenidos to Romero Britto.
0:12:07 > 0:12:10I'm impressed with your language skills, Ed.
0:12:10 > 0:12:14So far, you've had a welcome in French and Spanish.
0:12:14 > 0:12:17There's one place I really wouldn't mind paying a visit to soon though.
0:12:17 > 0:12:19The toilet.
0:12:19 > 0:12:23Aloha, toilet. That's a Hawaiian welcome.
0:12:23 > 0:12:26Oh, before you go to the loo, Ed, look at the height of this statue.
0:12:26 > 0:12:30It's over 14 metres tall. That's 7.5 Jessie Js.
0:12:30 > 0:12:33Huan ying to half a Jessie J.
0:12:33 > 0:12:34Mandarin Chinese.
0:12:35 > 0:12:38This is really fascinating but I need to go!
0:12:40 > 0:12:44I wonder what the best welcome you could give someone would be?
0:12:45 > 0:12:49The best welcome I could give someone is to go to the jungle
0:12:49 > 0:12:53and but all the tigers jump out and go "welcome".
0:12:53 > 0:12:55LAUGHS
0:12:55 > 0:12:57"I'm a tiger, welcome."
0:12:57 > 0:13:01If I had a jet pack, I'd fire into the sky and write the word welcome.
0:13:01 > 0:13:04The best welcome I could give someone is I'd put
0:13:04 > 0:13:06a spider down someone's back.
0:13:07 > 0:13:09And they would scream.
0:13:18 > 0:13:20Los Angeles, California.
0:13:22 > 0:13:26- Iain, what are you doing?- Hopping. - Yeah, I can see that, why?
0:13:26 > 0:13:29Hopping with excitement because of where we're going today.
0:13:29 > 0:13:31- Oh, because we're going to the Bunny Museum?- Yes.
0:13:31 > 0:13:34- That's why you're wearing the ears as well?- Good, aren't they?
0:13:34 > 0:13:37I hope you've got your entrance fee otherwise you'll be hopping mad.
0:13:37 > 0:13:38Mate, I'm off telly.
0:13:38 > 0:13:41- I've got all the money.- Ah, no, here you need a different kind of green.
0:13:44 > 0:13:49I'm with this guy so if I could just get... Ed, he won't let me in.
0:14:02 > 0:14:05Thankfully, Ed comes to Iain's rescue with some green stuff
0:14:05 > 0:14:08- and the bunny bouncer finally lets them in.- Wow.
0:14:08 > 0:14:12- A lot of bunnies in here.- Yeah. - Very observant, Ed.
0:14:12 > 0:14:15The entrance fee greenery not only feeds the real bunnies
0:14:15 > 0:14:18but also helps keep their teeth the correct length
0:14:18 > 0:14:21because bunnies' teeth grow continually throughout their lives.
0:14:21 > 0:14:24- How did this all begin then? - Well, this is the first one.
0:14:24 > 0:14:28My husband Steve gave that to me 19 years ago on Valentine's Day
0:14:28 > 0:14:31and I gave him that one at Easter and then before you know it
0:14:31 > 0:14:33we're giving each other a bunny every day. Love token.
0:14:33 > 0:14:36That's the trouble with rabbits, isn't it? They do multiply.
0:14:36 > 0:14:39There's our Guinness record. We have the most bunnies in the world.
0:14:39 > 0:14:42Wow. That's the quarantine shelf because those ones are really ill.
0:14:42 > 0:14:46- Look at them.- They're either really ill or alien bunnies.
0:14:46 > 0:14:49The number of real bunnies in America is over six million
0:14:49 > 0:14:52and they're, em, multiplying fast.
0:14:52 > 0:14:55Ed, do you know what, with all these different bunnies it's amazing
0:14:55 > 0:14:57that Candace can remember which one's which.
0:14:57 > 0:14:59We're about to find out if you can
0:14:59 > 0:15:03cos it's time to play It's All About The Bunny, Honey.
0:15:03 > 0:15:05Ed, what are you doing?
0:15:05 > 0:15:08So, let's start. Question one.
0:15:08 > 0:15:13Which of these bunnies was given to Candace by her husband Steve
0:15:13 > 0:15:15as a Valentine's gift?
0:15:15 > 0:15:21Is it Bunny A or Bunnies B?
0:15:21 > 0:15:23Bunny A. It looks very Valentinesy.
0:15:23 > 0:15:27There's lots of pink involved, I think I'm going to go Bunny A please.
0:15:27 > 0:15:32- Are you sure about A?- I am.- Well it's correct. Well done. Well done.
0:15:32 > 0:15:36- Brilliant. What do I win? - You win these bunny ears.
0:15:36 > 0:15:38- They're mine.- They're yours, you can take them home.
0:15:39 > 0:15:41Question two.
0:15:41 > 0:15:45Which of these bunnies was a decoration at
0:15:45 > 0:15:48Steve and Candace's wedding?
0:15:48 > 0:15:53Was it Bunny A or Bunnies B?
0:15:53 > 0:15:54This is a tricky one. Erm.
0:15:54 > 0:15:57The B looks like it's more heavy so it would be better on a table
0:15:57 > 0:16:02- but A is more of a centrepiece, isn't it? I'll go A.- Interesting...
0:16:02 > 0:16:05Because it's correct! Well done, Iain.
0:16:05 > 0:16:07- What did I win?- You've won those bunny ears.
0:16:10 > 0:16:14Which of these bunnies was a Christmas present?
0:16:14 > 0:16:16Bunny A, because it's obviously Christmassy.
0:16:16 > 0:16:18It does look very Christmassy.
0:16:18 > 0:16:21- Bunny B doesn't look Christmassy. - No, it doesn't look as Christmassy.
0:16:21 > 0:16:22I think it's a trick question.
0:16:22 > 0:16:27- I'm going to go, right, Bunny B.- Only a fool would say Bunny B!
0:16:27 > 0:16:30It's clearly Bunny A. I'm afraid I'm going to have to
0:16:30 > 0:16:32take your rabbit ears away from you, Iain.
0:16:32 > 0:16:36And destroy them. Bye.
0:16:36 > 0:16:39Oh, you're too nasty. Give him his ears back.
0:16:39 > 0:16:41I've never seen so many rabbits in one place.
0:16:41 > 0:16:44Yeah, there were some proper famous ones too.
0:16:44 > 0:16:45Well, we are near Hollywood,
0:16:45 > 0:16:48home of famous actors, be they human or rabbit.
0:16:48 > 0:16:51Yeah, but everyone knows famous bunnies don't actually exist.
0:16:51 > 0:16:55Iain, this is America. If you BURROW away, you might find a few.
0:16:57 > 0:17:00Hi, I'm looking for a Bunny Goldberg, hotshot movie agent?
0:17:00 > 0:17:04What can I do for you, kid? I'm all ears. Sock it to me, Larry.
0:17:04 > 0:17:07- It's Roger and I want to be an actor. - I've got one for you, Larry.
0:17:07 > 0:17:11What about the part of Peter Rabbit by Beatrix Potter?
0:17:11 > 0:17:14You play a rabbit who breaks into Mr McGregor's garden
0:17:14 > 0:17:16and steals all his carrots.
0:17:16 > 0:17:18You want me to be a gangster?
0:17:18 > 0:17:20Do I get to do a bank job?
0:17:20 > 0:17:22No, but you do get to borrow Cottontail's little blue
0:17:22 > 0:17:28- watering can.- It sounds boring.- OK, OK, how about this one? Bugs Bunny.
0:17:28 > 0:17:31He spends the whole movie being chased so you've got to run.
0:17:31 > 0:17:33I need to see you run, Larry.
0:17:33 > 0:17:35COMIC MUSIC PLAYS
0:17:39 > 0:17:40I can't breathe.
0:17:40 > 0:17:43Normally, Bugs Bunny says "What's up, Doc?"
0:17:43 > 0:17:44but I like your commitment.
0:17:44 > 0:17:45You've got the part.
0:17:45 > 0:17:46Argh!
0:17:49 > 0:17:54Way to go, Larry. Already making a big splash.
0:17:54 > 0:17:57- Thanks for showing us around. - Oh, you're welcome.
0:17:57 > 0:18:00- Oh no, we don't shake hands at the Bunny Museum.- Oh.- We do bunny bump.
0:18:00 > 0:18:04- I'll teach you. Bunny.- Bunny.- Bump.
0:18:04 > 0:18:07- Oh, right.- Bunny...bump.
0:18:07 > 0:18:09- Let's do a three-way. - Yeah, three-way bunny bump.
0:18:09 > 0:18:12ALL: Bunny bump!
0:18:20 > 0:18:24So, did you know we've been invited to a party whilst in New York?
0:18:24 > 0:18:27Really? Oh, the celebrity grapevine. I try to keep these things on the
0:18:27 > 0:18:30downlow, but, basically when people find out I'm going to be somewhere
0:18:30 > 0:18:31it's very hard to keep these things quiet,
0:18:31 > 0:18:33big celebrity party, is it?
0:18:33 > 0:18:35Exclusive VIP. Who else has been invited?
0:18:35 > 0:18:39- Brad, Jay-Z? Beyonce?- My auntie. - What?
0:18:39 > 0:18:43- It's my cousin's eighth birthday party.- Oh.- It's fancy dress.
0:18:43 > 0:18:46- Oh, I knew I should've bought my Wonder Woman costume.- What?
0:18:46 > 0:18:49Nothing. No problem, though, I know just where we need to go.

0:21:22 > 0:21:23Cheese sandwich, Ed?
0:21:23 > 0:21:27After all, we are in Wisconsin, the cheese capital of America.
0:21:27 > 0:21:28Yes, isn't it lovely.
0:21:28 > 0:21:31It is, and Hayward is actually known throughout the Midwest
0:21:31 > 0:21:34- for its beautiful scenery.- And trees. - And birdlife.
0:21:34 > 0:21:37- And trees.- And peace and quiet. - And trees.
0:21:37 > 0:21:39TREE CRASHES TO THE GROUND
0:21:41 > 0:21:45- Oh, a tree.- Yes, Ed, you plank. There's no fooling you.
0:21:45 > 0:21:48That is a tree and you're here at the World Lumberjack Championships
0:21:48 > 0:21:52in Hayward, Wisconsin, which has been running for over 50 years.
0:21:52 > 0:21:57100 lumberjacks and if you're a girl, lumberjills, can choose
0:21:57 > 0:22:01to take part in any one of the 21 events related to their job.
0:22:01 > 0:22:02So that's sawing, climbing
0:22:02 > 0:22:06and balancing as well as chopping down trees.
0:22:06 > 0:22:0912,000 people come here each year to see who'll be crowned
0:22:09 > 0:22:11World Lumberjack Champion.
0:22:11 > 0:22:13I wonder which event Ed and Michelle will compete in?
0:22:13 > 0:22:15- This is going to make a change. - What is?
0:22:15 > 0:22:17Well, today we get to choose our own event.
0:22:17 > 0:22:19Right, you just point me in the right direction
0:22:19 > 0:22:20and I'll make sure I beat you in it.
0:22:20 > 0:22:23Michelle, I think you'll find I nearly always win events
0:22:23 > 0:22:26- all over the place. It's very rare that I lose.- OK, Ed, whatever.
0:22:26 > 0:22:29Saws are traditionally used by lumberjacks to cut up trees
0:22:29 > 0:22:32and this is the log saw race to see who can do it the quickest.
0:22:32 > 0:22:34Do you reckon you could do it?
0:22:34 > 0:22:38Um, I wouldn't want to do it because I'd get very hot
0:22:38 > 0:22:40and sweaty and it wouldn't look good on camera.
0:22:40 > 0:22:42Ed and Michelle are watching the experts at work
0:22:42 > 0:22:44so they can choose an event to take part in.
0:22:44 > 0:22:46Make your mind up soon though, guys. Chop chop.
0:22:46 > 0:22:49These little logs look a lot more manageable than those big ones.
0:22:49 > 0:22:52- They're standing on the log. - Yeah, I think he's showing off.
0:22:52 > 0:22:55- No, guys, this is the log chopping event.- I'm not doing this.
0:22:55 > 0:22:58- I'm not doing this.- Whoa, scary!
0:22:58 > 0:23:01I prefer my toes attached to my feet, thank you very much.
0:23:01 > 0:23:04Far too dangerous. I'm going nowhere near that.
0:23:04 > 0:23:07OK, guys, what about this?
0:23:07 > 0:23:10Go, guys, come on, guys!
0:23:10 > 0:23:14This is the speed climb. Lumberjacks race in a 27 metre climb up.
0:23:17 > 0:23:19It's faster on the way down!
0:23:19 > 0:23:21No, no, no, no way.
0:23:21 > 0:23:24I'm not doing that, I'm not doing that.
0:23:26 > 0:23:28I definitely prefer the look of this.
0:23:28 > 0:23:30I think we could be quite good at this one.
0:23:30 > 0:23:32Yeah, no sharp tools, no bone-crunching falls.
0:23:32 > 0:23:37- It looks a lot safer, shall we see if we can have a go? Excuse me.- Yes.
0:23:37 > 0:23:40- Hiya. What's this?- This is a sport called log rolling.
0:23:40 > 0:23:41Is it easy to do?
0:23:41 > 0:23:44It's not easy but it's incredibly safe and a lot of fun.
0:23:44 > 0:23:47- Do you want to try?- Yeah, can we have a go?- All right, let's do it.
0:23:47 > 0:23:50In the log roll, each competitor tries to maintain their balance
0:23:50 > 0:23:52while putting their opponent in the water.
0:23:52 > 0:23:54My trainers are all squelchy.
0:23:54 > 0:23:57- OK, go on, you're going to fall in. Ready?- Ready.
0:23:57 > 0:23:59Roll. Fast feet, Michelle.
0:23:59 > 0:24:00MICHELLE SCREAMS
0:24:00 > 0:24:02- And she's wet.- That's a good start!
0:24:02 > 0:24:05You need bags of patience to teach Ed and Michelle
0:24:05 > 0:24:08and that's where former world champion Shona comes in.
0:24:08 > 0:24:10Good luck, Shona.
0:24:11 > 0:24:13SHE SCREAMS
0:24:13 > 0:24:15# Rolling, rolling, rolling, rolling
0:24:15 > 0:24:17# Keep rolling, rolling, rolling, rolling
0:24:17 > 0:24:21# Keep rolling, rolling, rolling, rolling
0:24:21 > 0:24:23# Keep rolling, rolling, rolling, rolling. #
0:24:23 > 0:24:27Four seconds. Right, guys, ready, set, go.
0:24:27 > 0:24:29Thank goodness this isn't the real competition
0:24:29 > 0:24:32because let's be honest, that was rubbish.
0:24:34 > 0:24:36And so was that.
0:24:37 > 0:24:40- I can't even do a high five.- Well done, Ed.
0:24:40 > 0:24:43I don't know, four seconds isn't much of a victory, you know.
0:24:43 > 0:24:45- That was tricky, man. - I know, what a washout.
0:24:46 > 0:24:49You guys want to try something else, a little more challenging?
0:24:49 > 0:24:51Well, we've got to be better at something than that.
0:24:51 > 0:24:52That wasn't ideal.
0:24:52 > 0:24:54Well, you're already wet
0:24:54 > 0:24:56so we've got another cool event called the boom run.
0:24:56 > 0:24:58- What's a boom run? - It's right over there.
0:24:58 > 0:25:01That string of logs, you are going to try and run across them.
0:25:01 > 0:25:06- You ready?- Let's do it.- Yeah. Yeah, let's boom run.- Boom run!
0:25:06 > 0:25:07Yeah, boom run.
0:25:07 > 0:25:11Competitors have to run along 55 metres of wet, slippy bobbing logs,
0:25:11 > 0:25:13run around a post at the end and run back
0:25:13 > 0:25:15and oh, it's against the clock too.
0:25:16 > 0:25:18Ouch!
0:25:18 > 0:25:21# Boom, boom, let me hear you say wayoh. #
0:25:24 > 0:25:26Can you chop some time off that, guys?
0:25:28 > 0:25:30Now in this event, the lumberjacks actually used to
0:25:30 > 0:25:33run across the river during the log drives to get from one end to
0:25:33 > 0:25:35the other, but we just do it for speed.
0:25:35 > 0:25:39So today, your job is going to be to step off the dock
0:25:39 > 0:25:42and try to stay right on top of those logs, which are going
0:25:42 > 0:25:46to be moving and spinning and bobbing and run as fast as you can.
0:25:46 > 0:25:48We're going to take a practice run
0:25:48 > 0:25:50and then we'll do the real thing next.
0:25:50 > 0:25:52Is this the easier or harder than the last one,
0:25:52 > 0:25:53because it sounds harder to me.
0:25:53 > 0:25:57- Hard, this is hard. - There's nothing easy in this place.
0:25:57 > 0:26:00What on earth? Are those your practice moves?
0:26:00 > 0:26:02Ed, you look like a demented chimp.
0:26:02 > 0:26:08- This is going to be bad! - Take your marks. Set. Go.
0:26:08 > 0:26:10MICHELLE SCREAMS
0:26:10 > 0:26:15One log. And come on, Ed, we haven't got all day. Get a move on.
0:26:15 > 0:26:20- I chickened out.- Three, two, one, go.- Here we go.
0:26:23 > 0:26:29- Ow! Ooh!- I don't like this. I don't want to be a lumberjack any more.
0:26:29 > 0:26:31What happened? I've no idea what happened.
