Episode 13 Epic Quick Blast

Welcome to the world of epic.

The place where you can become a master at everything on the planet.

No matter what it is, this programme shows you how to do it.

So sit back, strap yourself in

and get ready to become epic at everything!

Welcome to your quick blast of epicness.

First up, get ready to bust some moves.

Hi, I'm Lizzie Gough and I'm going to show you how to do the helicopter.

This is truly an epic move.

Yeah, that looks amazing. Show us the moves, Lizzie.

You're going to start with your knees bent.

-You want to be on the balls of your feet.

-Got it.

Now you're going to transfer your weight onto the side

and take the opposite leg out.

Now you're going to make a full rotation with this foot.

As you do that,

you transfer your weight onto the other hand.

-Like so.

-Easy for you to say.

And you want to jump this leg over the top of the other leg.

You've got to be kidding!

Then your leg rotates all the way round to make a full circle.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Just a minute, dancing lady! Let's rewind.

Rest on the balls of your feet, stick your leg out

and support yourself with the opposite arm.

Swing your leg in a circle,

transferring your weight to the other arm.

Now hop over your stuck out leg to complete the rotation.

Then practise - a lot!

So once you've mastered that, you can do it a little faster

and it looks a bit like this.

And that's how you do an epic helicopter.

Thanks, Lizzie. Make sure you don't take off!

So now you're an epic dancer, school disco ready,

but, hey - what are you going to wear?

Don't panic. This guy's got all the answers.

Yo, I'm Lethal Bizzle and I'm a rapper

and I've also got my own clothing line.

-I'm going to teach you how to look cool.

-I'm all ears, Mr Bizzle.

Looking cool is not about what you wear, but how you wear it.

Don't be afraid to be different.

Individuality is the key to a great style.

Cool. I don't dress like anyone else anyway.

Keep it simple. You don't need the bling, the chains and all that.

Jeans and a shirt - always cool.

-Jeans on, bling off, check.

-It's all about standing out from the crowd.

Accessories can help with that.

Backpacks.

Sunglasses.

A snapback.

But if you want to look really cool, obviously...

turn it backwards.

Right. I'm feeling cooler already. Anything else?

If you feel cool on the inside,

you're going to look cool on the outside. Always be yourself.

-If you're happy with how you look, then big up.

-Thank you, Mr Bizzle.

I feel good and I look good. Bye-bye.

Isn't he cool? Do you know what else are cool?

Walls. And there's only one thing cooler than walls -

this farmer who builds them.

Epicers, want to do a bit of manual labour

that's so extreme that it's just downright extreme?

There's 180,000 miles of dry stone walling

in Britain that needs rebuilding.

That's extreme.

I'm Gareth Wyn Jones

and I'm going to show you how to build a dry stone wall.

Impressive rock formation.

This is a dry stone wall made by piling stones on top of each other.

Sounds easy enough.

-But it's not as easy as it sounds.

-Ah.

And there are only a handful of people that know how to do it.

I'm in! G-Dog, let's get dry stone walling.

-You start at the bottom and work your way up.

-Got you, G-Unit.

-Go low!

-There's no cement used here.

It's the way we lift them that makes them last for hundreds of years.

Lift? Huh?

-When I say lift, I mean lifting the wall.

-Ten-four, take it high.

What's next, G-Force?

You start wide at the bottom and work your way narrow to the top.

This is the same technique as they used in the stone age

and we use it today.

Kick it prehistoric. Are we done?

-Oh.

-This is like a big jigsaw.

You need to make sure that all the pieces interlock.

Locking and popping. Got it, G-Down.

This technique is handed down from generation to generation.

-My father taught me and I'm teaching my son now.

-Got it, Dad...

I mean, G-Dad.

Last but not least...

You'll need to be very strong,

-but very careful.

-OK, G-Boss.

-Safety first.

-And that's how you build a dry stone wall.

G-Man, you're my hero.

So, there you have it, your quick blast of epicness.

Now go forth, and be epic at everything!
