Episode 20 Epic Quick Blast

Welcome to the world of epic!

Sit back, strap yourself in and get ready to become epic at everything!

Welcome to your quick blast of epicness.

So, what are we waiting for? Let's do this!

First up, here's how to score the perfect basketball three-pointer.

This is Terry. All right, Terry?

He has represented Great Britain's wheelchair basketball team

in a massive four Paralympic Games. Yes, four!

I'm Terry Bywater, I play wheelchair basketball for Great Britain

and I'm going to show you how to shoot a three-pointer.

In case you don't know, a three-pointer is when you shoot

from behind that line and get the ball in, like that. Beautiful.

My first tip would be to feel comfortable with the ball.

Get one hand behind, the other one to support it.

You want to be lined up to the basket. You've got to remember,

if you're in a wheelchair, your body can't cross the line.

No crossing the line. Still with you, Terry.

When you're about shoot, put your hand into the air,

snap your wrist and follow through and reach into the basket.

You want to shoot with an arc, high in the air,

so it goes up and down to the basket.

So, shoot with an arc, aim high into the air, follow-through,

and three points in the bag.

And that is how you shoot a three-pointer.

Thanks, Terry. On we go!

Ever had your parents pick you up from the school disco

and really embarrass you, cos they're dressed like retro aliens?

Well, worry ye not, as this fashionista can help.

Hi, I'm Ayishat, fashion stylist to some of your favourite music artists.

Today, I'm going to show you

how to make your parents look cool.

Lesson one, have you ever noticed how your dad's trousers sometimes

remind you of clown pants?

-Yes.

-Not so cool.

-Wowzers trousers!

-These are much cooler. I introduced my dad,

and now, I can finally walk down the street with him. Do it today.

Consider it done.

Next up is cool kicks. What's cooler than cool trainers?

So, why are our parents still wearing pairs like these?

I think we need to get rid of that.

How about introducing your folks to some cool pairs like these?

Bad trainers gone, cool ones in. Got it.

A lot of parents wear glasses.

This I have no qualms with. But why are they wearing glasses

that they were wearing when they were our age?

Why not introduce your folks to a geek chic pair like these?

-I think they look pretty cool.

-Geek, and chic. Cool.

And finally, sometimes parents try a little bit too hard

and start dressing like us.

If your mum's wearing a crop top,

-short shorts and a backwards baseball cap...

-Which she does.

This is an absolute no.

Instead, your mum should be wearing something like dark denim jeans,

ankle boots and they should top it off with a cool trilby.

And this, my friends, is how to make your parents look cool.

Thanks, Ayishat. Now, if they could just have a personality transplant,

I could hang out with my parents, happily.

But I'm not sure I could survive the wild with them

unless I had this man's assistance.

Hi, I'm Paul "Chalky" White,

I'm here to show you how to build the perfect shelter.

This is Paul White, a survival expert.

He's had 24 years of military experience.

You name it, he survived it.

The first thing we need to do is to start gathering wood.

Wood is the most important tool for the shelter itself.

Wood will make the frame

and the other materials will make the insulation.

Let's have a look and try and find some wood for our shelter.

Chalky's on the look out for three logs.

Two Y-shaped and one long one to make the frame of his shelter.

There's a smashing log down there.

This is the one I'm going to be using.

These will be at the front of the shelter

and we're going to interlock them.

Nicely interlock. Main beam will go up,

and sit on top and that's the frame.

Up and ready to go.

What we're going to look for now is some smaller boughs

and this will go onto the shelter, to act like a rib cage.

They're just going to get dug into the ground,

like so.

As we start to build a frame, I'm going to snap them off.

What a man! And soon, it should look like this.

Nice and solid, so they're not going to move.

What we are going to do now is make these gaps are little bit smaller,

and we're going to do that by putting in some smaller twigs.

This is our twigs we've collected.

This is the coolest shelter I've ever seen!

Frame's done. Holes are a lot smaller now

which means I can just throw the leaf litter on top.

And very quickly, I can get a good thermal barrier above me.

Ah, the piece de resistance, the leaves.

And there we have it. The perfect shelter.

Perfect timing, it's starting to rain. I'm getting in.

You get yourself nice and dry. Cheers, Chalky.

So, there you have it. Your quick blast of a epicness.

Now, go forth and be epic at everything!
