0:00:02 > 0:00:05- My name's Abby Hensel. - And I'm Brittany Hensel. We're 22.
0:00:05 > 0:00:09People have been curious about us since we were born.
0:00:09 > 0:00:11BOTH: We're identical twins who are conjoined.
0:00:11 > 0:00:14But we never use that as an excuse.
0:00:14 > 0:00:17Life has its challenges.
0:00:17 > 0:00:20- I like this.- But I don't need it.
0:00:20 > 0:00:24- We were raised to believe we can do anything we want.- So we do!
0:00:24 > 0:00:29- The most amazing thing is... - We're just like everyone else!
0:00:29 > 0:00:34- I'm definitely more normal than Britt.- Whatever!
0:00:34 > 0:00:35Anyways...
0:00:35 > 0:00:38BOTH: This is the story of our normal, regular life.
0:00:38 > 0:00:40Well, our normal, conjoined life.
0:00:40 > 0:00:42This is our life!
0:00:44 > 0:00:47I hate packing. I was so stressed out last night.
0:00:49 > 0:00:52- Are you wearing that?- Yeah.
0:00:52 > 0:00:57'The end of year is crazy - we're getting ready to graduate.
0:00:57 > 0:01:03- 'Looking for jobs and trying to figure out a new house to find. - So it's just crazy right now.'
0:01:03 > 0:01:06- Do you need help?- No.
0:01:06 > 0:01:09'For graduation, we wanted to take a road trip.'
0:01:09 > 0:01:16- So us...- And our roommate Katy. And our friend Erin and friend Kristen decided to go to Chicago.
0:01:16 > 0:01:20'We decided to do a girls' weekend to hang out with each other.'
0:01:20 > 0:01:25- Ready to go to Chicago? - I'm ready for the drive!- Yay!
0:01:25 > 0:01:28'It's so weird to think of not living with them.'
0:01:28 > 0:01:31The year's gone by so fast.
0:01:31 > 0:01:37Who knows where they're going to be, where we're going to be? No one knows exactly the next step.
0:01:37 > 0:01:42'It's so sad to think about not seeing them every day
0:01:42 > 0:01:46'because it's just become so normal to have them as part of my day.'
0:01:46 > 0:01:50- Bed buddies.- Strength in numbers. - You don't like high fives.
0:01:50 > 0:01:52Bye!
0:01:53 > 0:01:55ALL: We're going to Chicago!
0:01:57 > 0:02:00- Such a good day.- Yeah.
0:02:00 > 0:02:05We're five minutes late, but that's great.
0:02:05 > 0:02:10- We're only six minutes late. That's excellent.- That is good.
0:02:10 > 0:02:16- 'When we're driving, we're... - Both watching the road, both checking mirrors.
0:02:16 > 0:02:20'And just making sure everything is good. And we're both steering.'
0:02:20 > 0:02:23They know we're here now! BEEPS HORN
0:02:26 > 0:02:28Road...
0:02:29 > 0:02:32- Road trip!- Road trip!- Road trip!
0:02:32 > 0:02:34We're off to Chicago!
0:02:34 > 0:02:37- Chicago!- Woo!- Woo!
0:02:37 > 0:02:40- We were so excited... - When we got them.
0:02:40 > 0:02:44- We wanted to go and get... - Started. It was exciting.
0:02:44 > 0:02:48- You just relax back there. - Enjoy the ride.
0:02:48 > 0:02:53- We're relaxed, don't worry. - Seriously, do not worry.
0:02:53 > 0:02:57- I have my pillow. - You better believe it.
0:02:57 > 0:02:59They have to be up higher.
0:02:59 > 0:03:05- I have abnormally long legs. - And a very short torso.
0:03:05 > 0:03:08And then the seat has to be really far forward.
0:03:08 > 0:03:14One time I tried to drive their car. Trying to get into it was so squished.
0:03:14 > 0:03:21If I was separated, we'd be taller. And if I did have back surgery on my spine, I'd be taller.
0:03:21 > 0:03:25- I think we're good drivers. - We have two licences.
0:03:25 > 0:03:30- We each had to take the test. - We both passed, obviously.
0:03:30 > 0:03:34- Can we put different music in? - 'When we drive,'
0:03:34 > 0:03:38- Abby has control of the gas and brakes.- And then we both steer.
0:03:38 > 0:03:43- And then I'm in charge of the clicker.- For the blinker.- So...
0:03:43 > 0:03:47- How do I put on cruise control on this shindig?- There we go.
0:03:47 > 0:03:50'I don't know how they do it.'
0:03:50 > 0:03:56So much of driving is instinct and intuition
0:03:56 > 0:04:00'and to have to communicate to someone else, too...'
0:04:00 > 0:04:04It's over my head. I don't know how they do it.
0:04:06 > 0:04:12'Road trips are fun in the sense that it's exciting and you get to see everything you pass.
0:04:12 > 0:04:16'It's also fun just to hang out with your friends in the car.'
0:04:16 > 0:04:19SINGING ALONG WITH RADIO
0:04:19 > 0:04:24It was one of the last weekends that we could hang out with them. It was nice to...
0:04:24 > 0:04:27'All be together.'
0:04:31 > 0:04:35- No.- Aren't you almost done, though, actually teaching them?
0:04:35 > 0:04:38This week I did two classes.
0:04:38 > 0:04:43- Next week I'll do one class. - We're literally the last people to graduate.
0:04:46 > 0:04:47Onwards!
0:04:47 > 0:04:52- Two hours and 47 minutes! - Let the countdown begin.
0:04:52 > 0:04:58'We took turns driving because it was such a long trip. We were all relieved to get there.'
0:04:58 > 0:05:03- We finally made it to the hotel. We were delirious.- Super happy.
0:05:03 > 0:05:08All of us are here. Four bathroom stops. Lots of food.
0:05:08 > 0:05:13- It was the GPS.- We're here. We're ready to go to bed.
0:05:18 > 0:05:22'We chose to go to Chicago because we love this city.
0:05:22 > 0:05:26'And we all kind of got together and planned the trip.
0:05:26 > 0:05:30'Erin had done Segways before so we decided that would be fun.'
0:05:32 > 0:05:38- Yeah!- Yeah!- We're going to get you guys some helmets for safety.
0:05:38 > 0:05:41- Do you want to grab a helmet?- Yeah!
0:05:41 > 0:05:43Where is the sun?
0:05:43 > 0:05:45- Abbey Road!- Yeah, really.
0:05:46 > 0:05:49Back straight. Look towards me.
0:05:49 > 0:05:51And you go ahead and step on.
0:05:53 > 0:05:55There you go. Get a feel for it.
0:05:55 > 0:05:59- But how? - Shift your weight into your toes.
0:06:01 > 0:06:04You are all cruel!
0:06:04 > 0:06:07Just stand straight.
0:06:07 > 0:06:12The Segways were hard for us cos we balance a little bit differently than everyone else does.
0:06:18 > 0:06:22- I didn't think about that. - 'It's quite the difference.'
0:06:22 > 0:06:26Whether it be our legs or our torso. I mean, it's in both.
0:06:26 > 0:06:32We have quite the height difference. So we had to figure out on the Segway how to balance.
0:06:32 > 0:06:38It was the first time I had seen them do something where they couldn't figure it out instantly.
0:06:38 > 0:06:42'Britt is a lot shorter. She's always on her tiptoe.'
0:06:42 > 0:06:45She's got a huge calf muscle.
0:06:45 > 0:06:48She is always on her tiptoes to be the same height.
0:06:48 > 0:06:51I just don't think this is safe!
0:06:51 > 0:06:57You guys are going to be great. We're going to conquer this together. Aren't you cold?
0:06:57 > 0:07:01It's freezing. We've got some sweatshirts here.
0:07:01 > 0:07:05- Thank you so much. - Let's get those on.
0:07:05 > 0:07:07That's so much better.
0:07:10 > 0:07:16We're always different temperatures. Even like our stomach, if we're in a swimsuit or whatever,
0:07:16 > 0:07:21I can be a totally different temperature than Brittany. Weird.
0:07:21 > 0:07:27- And our hands...- Sometimes. - A lot of times our hands are different temperatures.
0:07:27 > 0:07:32I get super hot way faster. There's a distinct red line.
0:07:32 > 0:07:37My legs are sweating. Everything. It's awful. And she's fine.
0:07:37 > 0:07:39Isn't that weird?
0:07:39 > 0:07:42We're going to be on a little bit of a hill.
0:07:42 > 0:07:48- Oh, my God! Pot hole. - We're going to stay at the back here! No big deal!
0:07:51 > 0:07:54- Are they dancing?- Whoo.
0:07:54 > 0:08:02- So we started training. - And that took...- A lot longer than we thought. And it was cold.
0:08:02 > 0:08:06- So we decided to...- Cut our Segway tour...- A little bit shorter
0:08:06 > 0:08:11because we had a lot to do and wanted to get everything in.
0:08:11 > 0:08:17- And kind of because it was more the experience of riding a Segway... - Rather than seeing all of Chicago.
0:08:17 > 0:08:20'We felt we did get to see all of Chicago.
0:08:20 > 0:08:27- 'Just by driving and walking. - We got to see all of it. We just didn't do it on the Segways.'
0:08:27 > 0:08:31And smile! Hey!
0:08:35 > 0:08:40We went back to the hotel, changed into warmer clothes, fixed our hair.
0:08:59 > 0:09:03- It was time for lunch. - So we went for deep dish pizza.
0:09:03 > 0:09:08- 'We found a place down the road.' - Ladies, take care.
0:09:14 > 0:09:19- Brittany likes... - I like being in the city. - I don't like the city very much.
0:09:19 > 0:09:24- Sorry.- 'I wouldn't want to live there in the city.'
0:09:25 > 0:09:30We'd rather have, like, a yard and a more private home.
0:09:30 > 0:09:34I'd rather just be in a smaller suburb.
0:09:34 > 0:09:38- Guys! Pizza Due! - Give me some of the pizza!
0:09:40 > 0:09:44I'm Shonda. I'm your waitress and I want to welcome you...
0:09:44 > 0:09:47'Our server's name was Shonda.'
0:09:47 > 0:09:52- She was so funny and hilarious. - We loved her.
0:09:52 > 0:09:56What's going on? What have you been doing all day?
0:09:56 > 0:09:58Segwaying.
0:09:59 > 0:10:06She was just super-entertaining and so cute because she referred to herself in the third person.
0:10:06 > 0:10:09Excuse me. Shonda is back!
0:10:09 > 0:10:16- We got a medium pizza. It was really good.- We liked it cos we got to try a variety.
0:10:16 > 0:10:22'You could only really have one piece because it's so filling, but it was really good.'
0:10:22 > 0:10:27'We kind of all had stomach aches after we ate that pizza.'
0:10:27 > 0:10:29What did we just eat?!
0:10:29 > 0:10:31We were all sick. Katy was awful.
0:10:31 > 0:10:35If my stomach hurts, it hurts here and I can't feel this.
0:10:35 > 0:10:42I can't feel anything. And Brittany's stomach hurts here and she can't feel that.
0:10:42 > 0:10:46- I can only feel my right side. - I only feel my left side.
0:10:46 > 0:10:50- So it hurts on the opposite side. - Isn't that weird?
0:10:50 > 0:10:55'So we went to the Skydeck. That was previously known as the Sears Tower.
0:10:55 > 0:11:00'Now it's the Willis Tower. The ledge is on the 103rd floor,
0:11:00 > 0:11:03'approximately 1,400 feet high.'
0:11:03 > 0:11:10- It's just like a glass ledge, box and it's made of all glass. - And it's really cool.
0:11:10 > 0:11:16- You can see the city. It's a great view.- I think you can see four states out of it, I think I read.
0:11:16 > 0:11:22- But you can also just take fun pictures.- We goofed around, pretended like we were flying.
0:11:24 > 0:11:26Don't look up.
0:11:26 > 0:11:32- I'm not scared of heights. Brittany's petrified.- Not petrified. I can do it, but I don't like it.
0:11:33 > 0:11:35Yeah!
0:11:36 > 0:11:42- Hey, is that really how tall she is? - Wait, this is five foot.
0:11:42 > 0:11:46- You can measure me now. - This is the moment of truth.
0:11:46 > 0:11:48I have a little bit of a heel on.
0:11:48 > 0:11:54Throughout the museum there were rulers everywhere. We found out how tall we are.
0:11:54 > 0:11:56- Want me to cheat a little?- No!- Good.
0:11:56 > 0:12:00Oh, wow. That's significantly shorter.
0:12:00 > 0:12:02'We make fun of Britt'
0:12:02 > 0:12:07for being so short! I don't think she's even five foot. She's tiny.
0:12:07 > 0:12:14'So it's just funny to see the difference. And when Britt's flat-footed, they're super-slanted.
0:12:14 > 0:12:20'Even they're sometimes off-balance because of that.'
0:12:20 > 0:12:24Last night we were putting up pictures of us in our bathroom.
0:12:24 > 0:12:31They said, "Yeah, that's straight." I was like, "It's the most crooked thing!" "Looks straight to us!"
0:12:31 > 0:12:37'Sometimes with things like that you can tell they don't have the same viewpoint as everyone else
0:12:37 > 0:12:42- 'because of how their bodies are.' - 60 seconds to the top, guys.
0:12:42 > 0:12:47- That's probably pretty fast. - 18 miles per hour.- 18 miles...?!
0:12:47 > 0:12:49We can do that.
0:12:51 > 0:12:58- How you doing?- How are YOU doing? - I'm fine. You're the one we're worried about.- I'm fine.
0:12:58 > 0:13:03'There's a lot of things that Abby doesn't want to do, or Britt.'
0:13:03 > 0:13:08They just do them because they have to have some sense of compromise.
0:13:08 > 0:13:11We're over 1,000 feet in the air.
0:13:13 > 0:13:15Just saying.
0:13:15 > 0:13:20'I knew they were scared of heights, but I didn't realise
0:13:20 > 0:13:24'how much until we got up into the Skydeck.'
0:13:27 > 0:13:29That's OK.
0:13:32 > 0:13:36Oh, my God! You could fall straight down there.
0:13:36 > 0:13:40You can see straight down, which is kind of daunting. Whoa!
0:13:40 > 0:13:44Brittany didn't want to, but knew she had to.
0:13:44 > 0:13:50- You can do it. Just step really quick. It's super-safe. - Just don't look down!
0:13:50 > 0:13:54- Whoa! Whoa! - You got it!
0:13:54 > 0:14:00I think at first Britt's a little more cautious than Abby is to go try things,
0:14:00 > 0:14:05but she has a big vision of doing all the adventures with her life.
0:14:05 > 0:14:09This is nuts. We were right there!
0:14:09 > 0:14:13'Abby isn't scared of heights and Britt is.'
0:14:13 > 0:14:17Britt would do it. If Abby was scared, maybe she wouldn't have.
0:14:17 > 0:14:21- Britt, how are you doing?- Good. - You're feeling OK?- Yup.
0:14:21 > 0:14:24OK, we need to snap some pics.
0:14:24 > 0:14:28'It's kind of a bummer cos it was cloudy. It would have been nice.'
0:14:28 > 0:14:30to have a clear day. But still fun.
0:14:30 > 0:14:34- Lie down there. I want to see if it looks cool.- OK.- In the corner.
0:14:34 > 0:14:37Just wait. OK?
0:14:48 > 0:14:50- Where are we going?- Up here.
0:14:50 > 0:14:58- 'We wanted to go see the bean. It's pretty famous in Chicago. - It just looks like a bean.
0:14:58 > 0:15:03'And it's cool because there's a reflection.'
0:15:03 > 0:15:09People do different poses, but it's just really pretty. People go there to hang out.
0:15:09 > 0:15:11There's tons of sculptures to see.
0:15:16 > 0:15:21- 'We love taking pictures.- We've always been into photography.'
0:15:21 > 0:15:25We're always the ones... Along with Erin, so that's good.
0:15:25 > 0:15:28We're like, "Let's take a picture."
0:15:28 > 0:15:33- 'Photos are just a great memory. - Of what you're doing.'
0:15:34 > 0:15:39We're super-artsy, so it's a way to let that creativity out.
0:15:39 > 0:15:42- Get one?- Yeah.- Good?- Yeah, good.
0:15:42 > 0:15:45- Now where to?- Down here.
0:15:45 > 0:15:48- Down?- No, I mean to the left.
0:15:48 > 0:15:54- We just went back to the hotel room and we were just...- Exhausted. So we lay down for a little bit.
0:15:54 > 0:15:57BOTH: I'm so tired!
0:15:57 > 0:15:59Can we just watch a movie?
0:15:59 > 0:16:01I want to sleep!
0:16:01 > 0:16:05- Who wants to take a nap? - Me!- Me!
0:16:05 > 0:16:09- We decided it would be fun to... - Paint our nails.
0:16:09 > 0:16:12Options, options. Choices.
0:16:12 > 0:16:17- Kayla made me promise not to use the nail clipper...- For two weeks.
0:16:17 > 0:16:20- Why?- Because I do it every day.
0:16:20 > 0:16:25- You cut yours super-short.- No, no, no. They aren't this short normally.
0:16:25 > 0:16:31- Then what are you cutting?! - The babiest nails I've ever had. - I don't like when they're weak.
0:16:31 > 0:16:33So I just cut them short.
0:16:36 > 0:16:40- Oh, em, the Skydeck. - What was your favourite part?
0:16:40 > 0:16:45- Segways.- Segways? You got good at them.- I just think they're funny.
0:16:45 > 0:16:47Once you've figured out the balance.
0:16:47 > 0:16:52You guys just plant your feet. My legs are shorter than each other.
0:16:52 > 0:16:58- What do people come to Chicago for? - It's smaller than New York and easier to navigate.
0:16:58 > 0:17:05'We aren't going to get a lot of time to take trips like this any more and see people as much.'
0:17:05 > 0:17:09- It's a good time to...- Catch up. - And enjoy each other's company.
0:17:09 > 0:17:12- 'And paint our nails.- And relax.'
0:17:12 > 0:17:16You've got to move out all your stuff that's been accumulating.
0:17:16 > 0:17:18I'm not looking forward to that.
0:17:18 > 0:17:23We're not sure where we're going to be, so it's nice to get away
0:17:23 > 0:17:27'while we're still together and have adventures and memories.
0:17:27 > 0:17:31'It just dawned on us how close graduation is.'
0:17:31 > 0:17:37I don't want to go back because now we have three weeks, two weekends, until we graduate.
0:17:37 > 0:17:42- Is it really only two weekends? - Two weekends, then graduation.
0:17:45 > 0:17:50Since it's the last semester of our senior year at college,
0:17:50 > 0:17:55- we've been student teaching and hanging out with our friends. - Before graduation.
0:17:59 > 0:18:04- Most school days, we try to get up...- Around 6.45. And then...
0:18:04 > 0:18:09- We try to leave for school by 7.45...- 7.50.
0:18:10 > 0:18:13- 7.45!- 7.45.
0:18:14 > 0:18:21- BOTH: We are not morning people. - Like...- We don't talk to each other. - Or to anybody.
0:18:21 > 0:18:24- We do what we gotta do.- Yep.
0:18:25 > 0:18:31- 'We're teaching a Fourth Grade classroom.- Today we're teaching a review of math.'
0:18:31 > 0:18:34With a test tomorrow. It'll be a good day.
0:18:36 > 0:18:39We're there every day, all day.
0:18:39 > 0:18:43- 'The morning message is something... - To get the kids started.
0:18:43 > 0:18:49'Today we said: What is an adjective that could describe yourself?'
0:18:49 > 0:18:52- Morning, girls! - How are you doing?
0:18:52 > 0:18:55'My name is Geri Von Grey.'
0:18:55 > 0:19:01I work with Abby and Brittany as their supervisor. We have worked together for three years.
0:19:01 > 0:19:05'She's there for us to talk to'
0:19:05 > 0:19:08- and she tries to observe one lesson a week.- And give us feedback.
0:19:08 > 0:19:11- Good morning!- How are you?
0:19:12 > 0:19:17Write some adjectives down. How would you describe yourself?
0:19:17 > 0:19:21'The question of separate majors or one major is common.'
0:19:21 > 0:19:24Initially, they thought of having different focuses.
0:19:24 > 0:19:31'Physically, it was really impossible for them to take twice as many classes as the average student
0:19:31 > 0:19:36- 'and then get the homework done.' - Did you write "funny"? Nice?
0:19:36 > 0:19:38- Attitude.- All right.
0:19:38 > 0:19:41'For the most part, we definitely teach'
0:19:41 > 0:19:44- in a collaborative...- Team approach.
0:19:44 > 0:19:46All righty.
0:19:46 > 0:19:52- 'In order to get the kids' attention, we do clapping rhythms. - We have them follow along.'
0:19:52 > 0:19:58Some people are still not with me. All right. Very good job.
0:19:58 > 0:20:02Put up your desks and take out your math.
0:20:02 > 0:20:06'I definitely have more math and science.'
0:20:06 > 0:20:11- That's my strong point. Brittany's more... - More focused on language arts.
0:20:11 > 0:20:14'Writing and reading.'
0:20:14 > 0:20:16And seated and quiet.
0:20:16 > 0:20:18My connection with Abby and Brittany,
0:20:18 > 0:20:23I've followed them through the years, understanding their unique situation.
0:20:23 > 0:20:29'The fact that they are together, they're constantly in a team teaching mode.'
0:20:29 > 0:20:31Come sit on the floor.
0:20:31 > 0:20:35'We see a difference in the tolerance.'
0:20:35 > 0:20:41I'm more strict in the sense that I want to keep them as quiet as we can.
0:20:41 > 0:20:46- Brittany can handle more chatter. - Noise.- Goes with the flow more.
0:20:46 > 0:20:50Who can remember what we don't do with our markers?
0:20:50 > 0:20:54- We don't draw. - Where do our markers go? Adam?
0:20:54 > 0:20:59- On the floor. - And we are NOT writing notes.
0:20:59 > 0:21:06We had concerns about how the students would respond. It's such a unique situation.
0:21:06 > 0:21:14- Let's start with factors and multiples.- 'It was important to give students that exposure visually.'
0:21:14 > 0:21:18We had an open question and answer forum where they took their questions
0:21:18 > 0:21:25and from then on they were dismissed, Abby and Brittany, and the teacher asked the students very candidly,
0:21:25 > 0:21:29"Do you have any other questions?" And they were like, "No.
0:21:29 > 0:21:34"That's it. They're just part of our classroom now."
0:21:34 > 0:21:37The top number is 56. Draw an array for me.
0:21:37 > 0:21:4256 has to be inside, so give me two factors that give 56.
0:21:42 > 0:21:45- 8 and 7. Very good. - 'Once you arrive'
0:21:45 > 0:21:52to the place where you recognise them as very qualified and dynamic teachers,
0:21:52 > 0:21:58then it becomes a non-issue, really. And that process for kids happens...like that.
0:21:58 > 0:22:00Boards up, boards up.
0:22:00 > 0:22:03BOTH: Excellent.
0:22:03 > 0:22:10- So we decided that we...- Would get feedback from the students. - About having student teachers.
0:22:10 > 0:22:14- What's it like having a student teacher?- Or two!- Or two!
0:22:19 > 0:22:21And you've done that.
0:22:21 > 0:22:26- 'I have to focus a lot harder.- Yeah. - Like when we are doing'
0:22:26 > 0:22:31- two different things. "What are you doing?"- What's the other one doing?
0:22:31 > 0:22:35What does that mean about how many eyes we have?
0:22:35 > 0:22:39- Anthony, you can answer. I tell you this a lot.- Four.
0:22:39 > 0:22:42There's four eyes watching you!
0:22:42 > 0:22:46Saying the same stuff at the same time.
0:22:46 > 0:22:48You do like that, don't you?
0:22:48 > 0:22:55- I would not hesitate to put them in the classroom and hire them. - Group 3. You get three points.
0:22:55 > 0:22:57I'd like you to go for recess.
0:22:57 > 0:23:04Some of the uniqueness is in terms of contracts. Is it one contract? Is it two contracts?
0:23:04 > 0:23:07'They applied as two separate people'
0:23:07 > 0:23:15and they'll both have their own teaching licence. But they need a job where they can be in the same space.
0:23:15 > 0:23:20Group 2, you get three points and you can also go and enjoy recess.
0:23:20 > 0:23:21Bye!
0:23:21 > 0:23:27There's no question in my mind that they will change the world for the better and influence lives
0:23:27 > 0:23:33in ways that those like myself, as one person, never will be able to do.
0:23:33 > 0:23:37Bye! 'We are winding down student teaching.'
0:23:37 > 0:23:40We only have 13 days left, which is so sad.
0:23:40 > 0:23:44But we're excited to graduate. It'll be a good week.
0:23:44 > 0:23:47Bittersweet, but we're excited.
0:23:50 > 0:23:52Is that it?
0:23:52 > 0:23:55Josiah is...
0:23:55 > 0:23:59- one of...- Our best friends from Bethel. We met him the first day.
0:23:59 > 0:24:05We try to do a once-a-week hang out and catch up on each other's week and see how things are going.
0:24:05 > 0:24:11- You guys getting excited for graduation?- Yes. Are you?- Yeah.
0:24:11 > 0:24:14'We were in the same dorm.'
0:24:14 > 0:24:17They were mixing with boys and girls, as awkward as that is.
0:24:17 > 0:24:21BOTH: What service are you graduating at?
0:24:21 > 0:24:26What ceremony? I am at the 12.30 ceremony.
0:24:26 > 0:24:31It's been a ton of fun, we've been great friends. Blessed to have them.
0:24:31 > 0:24:35- What time are you two graduating? - Nine o'clock.- Both?- Yeah.
0:24:35 > 0:24:40- Maybe I'll graduate at four. I'm not sure yet.- OK.
0:24:40 > 0:24:44- Did you know we're conjoined(?) - Knock that off! You're what?!
0:24:44 > 0:24:49- We're conjoined. Did you know that? - What does that even mean?
0:24:49 > 0:24:55- We tried to talk about this before. - Seriously. I felt like you had said something.
0:24:55 > 0:25:00- I mentioned it.- I thought you said you liked pork loins.
0:25:00 > 0:25:05'I probably knew three people at Bethel that time I met them.
0:25:05 > 0:25:08'This was an opportunity to meet more people.'
0:25:08 > 0:25:15I don't remember what I thought and to me that's huge. I saw the potential for two friends.
0:25:15 > 0:25:19'And I've always joked with them it's two for the price of one.'
0:25:19 > 0:25:23- You had an interview recently? - Yes. We had a job interview.
0:25:23 > 0:25:29- What questions did they ask you?- What was one of my greatest successes?
0:25:29 > 0:25:33- What were your greatest successes? - I would say doing teaching.
0:25:33 > 0:25:39- And there is the points system that we put together.- We give kids points for good behaviour.
0:25:39 > 0:25:42'They're very much sisters to me.'
0:25:42 > 0:25:48I'm very protective of them. They don't really allow for their friends to be too protective.
0:25:48 > 0:25:53That's the unique bond I have with them. They allow me to do that.
0:25:53 > 0:25:57- Are we excited?- Our last Chilly Billy's before graduation.
0:25:57 > 0:26:04- He is super-supportive and encourages us. And always makes us laugh.- We're always laughing.
0:26:04 > 0:26:08We play off each other's stupidity or weirdness.
0:26:08 > 0:26:13What was the song we made up? Hit it with me, come on.
0:26:13 > 0:26:18- I don't know it.- Yeah, you do! - Oh, shucks!
0:26:18 > 0:26:22- I didn't know we played guitar. - I did.- I did, by myself.
0:26:22 > 0:26:27- You're pretty good at acoustic air guitar.- I've never played in my life.
0:26:27 > 0:26:31- We're also able to...- Connect. - On a more serious level.
0:26:31 > 0:26:36We often ask him for advice and he is super-encouraging and supportive.
0:26:36 > 0:26:42- It's sad we won't be with our friends.- I'll be around. - I'm sad about that.
0:26:42 > 0:26:48- You don't know that for sure. - You've still got high school friends. So why not your college friends?
0:26:48 > 0:26:51- That's a good question.- Thank you.
0:26:51 > 0:26:56'The way they interact is totally different to how I would with my own sibling.'
0:26:56 > 0:27:02I think that's such a unique bond that no one in this world could have
0:27:02 > 0:27:04besides those two with each other.
0:27:04 > 0:27:07BOTH: Bye! Thank you.
0:27:07 > 0:27:11- All right. Here we go. - I'm OK.
0:27:14 > 0:27:20- So all that remains... - Is graduating.- Katy's in social work and Cari's also in education.
0:27:20 > 0:27:23It's our last weekend at college.
0:27:23 > 0:27:28- Brittany, will you get out of your phone?!- I'm texting Josiah.
0:27:28 > 0:27:32- None of the roommates...- Have jobs. We're all interviewing and looking.
0:27:32 > 0:27:37- 'We're living in our house until August.- We're excited.
0:27:37 > 0:27:43'And then come September we're not sure where we'll be. We haven't figured out our job yet.'
0:27:43 > 0:27:47- How are we feeling about graduation? - Are we nervous?
0:27:47 > 0:27:53I'm not nervous for the actual graduation, but it'll not ever be the same.
0:27:53 > 0:27:57- I'm nervous for tripping. I have a record.- So do I!- Like prom.
0:27:57 > 0:28:00High school graduation.
0:28:00 > 0:28:04- Let's practise.- OK.- You have to practise with your shoes on.
0:28:04 > 0:28:07Cari Jo Hohncke!
0:28:08 > 0:28:11Britt and Abby Hensel!
0:28:14 > 0:28:17Will you please drop it? Drop it.
0:28:17 > 0:28:24'It'll be exciting to go through this next season together and living here this summer.'
0:28:24 > 0:28:28And just being able to celebrate together. That's really awesome.
0:28:28 > 0:28:35- What are we going to do for jobs? - It's a foreign language! - It is, but it'll be super-fun.
0:28:35 > 0:28:39- We'll figure it out, guys. - Let's take a pic.
0:28:39 > 0:28:41Make a sad "We're graduating" face.
0:28:42 > 0:28:46- We're graduating on Saturday! - To graduation.
0:28:46 > 0:28:48You went, you went...
0:28:50 > 0:28:51Yaaay!
0:29:01 > 0:29:04- Do I want a watch?- No.
0:29:04 > 0:29:07I'm wearing earrings.
0:29:07 > 0:29:10- What do you think? Pearls or diamonds?- Diamonds.
0:29:11 > 0:29:16- 'Graduation day finally came. - Our ceremony was at nine.'
0:29:16 > 0:29:22So us, Cari Jo and Katy all got ready early. We had to be there at eight.
0:29:22 > 0:29:27- Or the light shoes. What's better? - Put one of each on.
0:29:27 > 0:29:30Are they going to stay on while you walk?
0:29:30 > 0:29:32No.
0:29:33 > 0:29:36Oh, it will stay on a while, though.
0:29:36 > 0:29:39- Have you tried on the hat? - No.- OK.
0:29:39 > 0:29:42- Love you!- Oh, we're graduating!
0:29:42 > 0:29:45- Is that OK? It doesn't look too tight?- No!
0:29:45 > 0:29:52I don't think it actually hit us because there's so much stuff to do. Our robes, tickets...
0:29:52 > 0:29:54We've got to go!
0:29:54 > 0:29:56Now!
0:29:56 > 0:29:59- OK, we've got to move. - We should have woken up earlier!
0:29:59 > 0:30:02Bye!
0:30:03 > 0:30:06- You girls look great.- Thank you.
0:30:06 > 0:30:09Ready? Let's do it!
0:30:10 > 0:30:12- I know it!- Oh, coffee!
0:30:12 > 0:30:15Oh, coffee.
0:30:15 > 0:30:19Oh, your coffee! Everybody, then.
0:30:19 > 0:30:26- It wasn't stressful, more exciting. - We were like, "Let's just get there."- And get things rolling.
0:30:30 > 0:30:32Here we go!
0:30:32 > 0:30:34Are you really putting that on?
0:30:38 > 0:30:40- How are you?- Good.
0:30:40 > 0:30:44- This is so weird. - This is just stupid.
0:30:44 > 0:30:51- How's this supposed to be on? - I don't remember. I think on the right, then you put it to the left.
0:30:51 > 0:30:57How have they not perfected the graduation look yet?! They've had centuries.
0:30:59 > 0:31:00- Hi!- Hi!
0:31:03 > 0:31:06Fix it. Fix it now.
0:31:06 > 0:31:10Do you want it on the right or left? It's supposed to go on the right.
0:31:14 > 0:31:16ORGAN MUSIC PLAYS
0:31:21 > 0:31:23Yeah.
0:31:23 > 0:31:26You secured it real tight.
0:31:29 > 0:31:36I think when we were all walking in we all got excited. "Oh! This is actually it!"
0:31:39 > 0:31:41Knowing they want to be a teacher,
0:31:41 > 0:31:45I knew they'd go to college and do well in college.
0:31:47 > 0:31:50You may be seated.
0:31:50 > 0:31:55- Is anybody excited? - STUDENTS: Whoo!
0:31:55 > 0:31:58Looking at the financial aid part,
0:31:58 > 0:32:04Bethel did approach it as, "Let's try to do a two-for-one here for the most part."
0:32:04 > 0:32:11And now we get to graduate you. We've been looking forward to that almost as much as you have.
0:32:11 > 0:32:17They each had to pay a fee and each got diplomas, but they only took up one spot in the classroom
0:32:17 > 0:32:24and most of the homework they only turned in one assignment. So I think it was fair what they did.
0:32:24 > 0:32:28President Barnes, I present them to you for conferral of their degrees.
0:32:28 > 0:32:33You may now move your tassels from right to left
0:32:33 > 0:32:38signifying that you are the proud holder of a degree from Bethel University.
0:32:38 > 0:32:40Congratulations. We salute you.
0:32:49 > 0:32:52Abigail Loraine Hensel.
0:32:53 > 0:32:55Brittany Lee Hensel.
0:32:55 > 0:33:01So they called our names and we got up there and we were like, "I'm not going to trip!"
0:33:10 > 0:33:14My hat fell off, but I recovered quickly with the fist pump!
0:33:14 > 0:33:16Nothing really embarrasses me.
0:33:16 > 0:33:23- We tried not to drop everything. - But we weren't embarrassed. - So...- We managed.
0:33:23 > 0:33:27And that, ladies and gentlemen, is your class of 2012!
0:33:31 > 0:33:35After graduation, our family went out to dinner at Dixie's.
0:33:35 > 0:33:39- Found your keys, girls? - Know where they were, Dad?- Where?
0:33:39 > 0:33:43- They were in...- The car. - The car was running for four hours.
0:33:43 > 0:33:45No way!
0:33:45 > 0:33:49- The doors were wide open. - The car was running?!
0:33:49 > 0:33:54- Who left the car running?- Me, I drove. Dad's trying not to say much!
0:33:54 > 0:33:59- So is it out of gas, then? - No. I still have a half tank.
0:33:59 > 0:34:01'We were late. We lost our keys.'
0:34:01 > 0:34:07- And they were in our car with the car still on.- So it ran...
0:34:07 > 0:34:10- 8, 9, 10, 11, 12.- Four hours.
0:34:10 > 0:34:15- What are you drinking?!- Root beer. - Are you 18, Koty?
0:34:15 > 0:34:18- Are you 18?- Are you kidding me?
0:34:18 > 0:34:23- 19.- Oh, I didn't know. - Koty's 19. He's going to be 20.
0:34:23 > 0:34:30- My brother's Koty. He's two years younger than us.- We have that... - Bickering relationship.
0:34:30 > 0:34:34- But...- It's getting better. - We're definitely bickering less.
0:34:34 > 0:34:36You didn't say Happy Birthday.
0:34:38 > 0:34:41That's right. How old am I?
0:34:41 > 0:34:43'Me and Koty fight more.'
0:34:43 > 0:34:49- Brittany's more...- Laidback. I don't get bothered by him. - I fight back.
0:34:49 > 0:34:53- Oh, thank you.- Is it a horse? - It's not a horse.
0:34:53 > 0:35:00- BOTH: Oh, look at that! - It's my name!- It'll be on my desk. When I don't get a job(!)
0:35:00 > 0:35:06- Morgan is 17...- And she's going to go to our college. We're going to love having her in the city.
0:35:06 > 0:35:09Morgan, you're going to Bethel.
0:35:09 > 0:35:12She's so excited(!)
0:35:12 > 0:35:15More Post-Its and stickers.
0:35:15 > 0:35:20- Now you just need the job.- Which I won't get.- You'll get a job.
0:35:21 > 0:35:23In Alaska!
0:35:25 > 0:35:28- You have to be at least 100 miles away from home.- At least!
0:35:28 > 0:35:32- I can't believe they left the car running.- Shut up! I didn't try to.
0:35:32 > 0:35:38- They are their mother's kids. - Mom is a lot like us in every aspect!
0:35:38 > 0:35:43'Brittany's a lot more stubborn, like Dad. And I'm more like...'
0:35:43 > 0:35:46- Abby worries a lot.- Just like Mom.
0:35:46 > 0:35:49- We're definitely a mix. - We're really close to them.
0:35:49 > 0:35:54- OK, now you can enjoy your meal. - Go out see if the car's running.
0:35:58 > 0:35:59Whoo!
0:36:01 > 0:36:02Awww!
0:36:05 > 0:36:09'They've probably had lots of challenges,
0:36:09 > 0:36:13'but they don't consider them a challenge. If it's just something'
0:36:13 > 0:36:15they want to do,
0:36:15 > 0:36:17they're just going to do it.
0:36:17 > 0:36:24'I'm sure they look sometimes at situations and think, "We can never do that," but if they want it,'
0:36:24 > 0:36:28it doesn't matter - they're going to go after it.
0:36:28 > 0:36:29OK, let's check.
0:36:29 > 0:36:33- Passports.- Money. IDs.
0:36:33 > 0:36:36- Abby.- Brittany. 'We are going to London.'
0:36:36 > 0:36:43- And England for a trip.- London IS England.- I mean we're going to Italy and London for a trip.
0:36:43 > 0:36:47- With some girlfriends from college. - Erin and Becca.
0:36:47 > 0:36:51- So we have our boots.- Make sure our camera's there.- Yeah, I feel it.
0:36:51 > 0:36:58- 'We love London. We have studied abroad in London.- Twice. We student taught in Maidenhead.'
0:36:58 > 0:37:00Rain jacket.
0:37:00 > 0:37:06Erin and us always talked about going to London since sophomore year so we want to make it happen.
0:37:06 > 0:37:10- And we decided... - We wanted to go to Italy.
0:37:10 > 0:37:11Meep-meep!
0:37:11 > 0:37:16So we decided to spend five days in London and five in Venice and Rome.
0:37:16 > 0:37:20- BOTH: We're going to Europe! Whoo! - Ready?
0:37:20 > 0:37:25- Yeah, I'm all packed.- 'We were all really excited to go on this trip.'
0:37:25 > 0:37:29It had been a trying time for all of us.
0:37:29 > 0:37:35'There are so many uncertainties trying to figure out where to live, where to work.'
0:37:35 > 0:37:41We knew this would be the only time where we could have ten days off to be able to travel.
0:37:41 > 0:37:45- Have a good trip, girls. - Love you. See you later.
0:37:45 > 0:37:48- Bye!- Be good!- I will.- Not.
0:37:48 > 0:37:50'I'm very excited for them.'
0:37:50 > 0:37:55- Here we go! - 'I don't have any concerns.'
0:37:55 > 0:38:00We talked with their primary doctor and got a prescription for almost anything they could possibly need
0:38:00 > 0:38:06'from bronchitis to cellulitis to urinary tract infections to pain medicine.'
0:38:06 > 0:38:12- Oh!- 'Because for them to walk into another country's hospital, you know,'
0:38:12 > 0:38:15it would be hard to start from the beginning with them.
0:38:17 > 0:38:20- Good.- Hi.- Go ahead, thank you.
0:38:20 > 0:38:24- May I have your passports? - I did remember our passports!
0:38:24 > 0:38:27- 'We have two passports.- One each.'
0:38:27 > 0:38:31We have two Social Security numbers, so it makes sense.
0:38:31 > 0:38:36- I'm not sure if we're booked under Abby or Brittany.- It's Brittany.
0:38:36 > 0:38:39But we only take up one seat.
0:38:39 > 0:38:41- How many bags?- One.
0:38:41 > 0:38:44We've never had a problem with it.
0:38:44 > 0:38:49- Thank you for flying Delta today. Have a good flight.- And we're off!
0:38:56 > 0:39:00So the first morning in London we took an open-top bus tour.
0:39:00 > 0:39:06- How are you?- I'm Abby. - I'm Brittany.- Hi, nice to meet you.
0:39:06 > 0:39:11'It's just a good way to see the whole city.'
0:39:11 > 0:39:16- We thought it would be fun to get a history-type tour. - Which was super-fun.
0:39:16 > 0:39:19This is so great.
0:39:19 > 0:39:24The Battle of Trafalgar was won by Lord Nelson. He's on the column.
0:39:24 > 0:39:31If Trafalgar Square is the geographic centre, Piccadilly Circus is the social centre.
0:39:31 > 0:39:35It's fun to see all those sites relaxed, not taking 100 pictures.
0:39:35 > 0:39:38- There's Big Ben. - That's really cool.
0:39:38 > 0:39:40But we still took 100 pictures!
0:39:42 > 0:39:46It's so unnecessary, how many I've taken.
0:39:46 > 0:39:53I always hit the picture button, but we take turns at whoever wants to look into the little viewer.
0:39:53 > 0:39:55Ladies.
0:39:55 > 0:40:02When Brittany's focusing it, I know when she stops moving. So I click the button.
0:40:02 > 0:40:07But it's not something that we are consciously in thought of.
0:40:07 > 0:40:09The Palace is just ahead of us.
0:40:14 > 0:40:20That's the balcony that you see the Royal Family coming out on on special occasions.
0:40:20 > 0:40:22- Morning!- Morning!
0:40:22 > 0:40:25Holy cow! There's a lot of people.
0:40:25 > 0:40:28No, it's too beautiful.
0:40:28 > 0:40:30It's different, travelling.
0:40:30 > 0:40:37'In these crowded situations, I am far more aware of where they are and just what's going on.
0:40:37 > 0:40:43'No one expects that they're going to see conjoined twins so it's normal to have a reaction,'
0:40:43 > 0:40:46but you never know what people will do or say.
0:40:46 > 0:40:53Holy crap. 'They've had bad experiences of unwelcome attention
0:40:53 > 0:40:56'or unwelcome photographs so when that happens'
0:40:56 > 0:40:58everyone's on high alert.
0:41:04 > 0:41:06What the heck!
0:41:06 > 0:41:11'You want to make sure they're safe and not completely exposed.
0:41:11 > 0:41:18'Definitely standing in the way of pictures, keeping an eye on what's going on and how the girls are'
0:41:18 > 0:41:20reacting to the crowds.
0:41:20 > 0:41:27- All right? Shall we go? - Sometimes if they get overwhelmed, we just need to get away from the area.
0:41:27 > 0:41:32- Let's bounce out of here.- 'But they amaze me with their ability'
0:41:32 > 0:41:36to shake it off and keep seeing what we're there to see.
0:41:36 > 0:41:40'You've got to take it as it comes and go with it.'
0:41:40 > 0:41:44- It doesn't wreck the whole day. - Got to make it fun.
0:41:44 > 0:41:49- Time's up. - I'm talking to my boyfriend and my fiance who I don't know.
0:41:49 > 0:41:53Hello. Yes. Where's my ring? Fine, goodbye!
0:41:53 > 0:42:00- This is how rumours get started. - There was this rumour that I was engaged and it's not true at all.
0:42:00 > 0:42:05- It was a dumb joke.- So... - No boyfriend.- No engagement.
0:42:05 > 0:42:07Whoo hoo.
0:42:08 > 0:42:14- Picture time?- Yeah, let's just wait until this crowd passes.
0:42:14 > 0:42:19'So then we went to Tower Bridge, another favourite cos it's so beautiful.'
0:42:19 > 0:42:24Look! This is really special. That barge is the royal barge.
0:42:24 > 0:42:28- Oh, wow!- That's amazing. - Is somebody on it?- I doubt it.
0:42:28 > 0:42:33'We saw the Queen's barge go through, which apparently is...'
0:42:33 > 0:42:35Very significant.
0:42:35 > 0:42:39- The kings would always do pageants on the river.- OK.
0:42:39 > 0:42:42This was revived for the Jubilee.
0:42:42 > 0:42:46- Is there significance to that? - It's just a sculpture.
0:42:46 > 0:42:52I'm going to give you £5 to go hug that thing right there.
0:42:52 > 0:42:56We saw this weird statue. Erin dared us to give it a hug.
0:43:02 > 0:43:04That was well worth it.
0:43:04 > 0:43:09- Well worth it.- 'We were running a little faster than we thought.'
0:43:09 > 0:43:15- And it was like...- Bang! We startled everyone, I think. Made a big ruckus.
0:43:15 > 0:43:20I think you made this mark on it. This was caused by you, right there.
0:43:20 > 0:43:27- You left your mark in London. - Well done.- 'They're always willing to make themselves look stupid.'
0:43:27 > 0:43:31- That was really good. - But that one surprised me.
0:43:31 > 0:43:35- We've had a lot of fun today. - So much fun!
0:43:44 > 0:43:51- Has everybody been here before?- We did it once. It's hard. The traffic doesn't stop.- It stops for me.
0:43:51 > 0:43:53'While in London, we decided'
0:43:53 > 0:43:58- to go to Abbey Road. - And try the walk.- From the Beatles.
0:43:58 > 0:44:03- You go first, I'll go second.- 'It's a little tricky to time a picture.'
0:44:03 > 0:44:06And not get hit by traffic. It's a busy road.
0:44:06 > 0:44:10Go! Go! 'It was kind of like Frogger.'
0:44:10 > 0:44:12Don't get hit!
0:44:12 > 0:44:14Guys, we did it!
0:44:14 > 0:44:18- Guys! - I told you traffic stops for me.
0:44:18 > 0:44:22- Right, where next? - Have you done high tea?- No
0:44:27 > 0:44:31- It's so cool. - This table?- Perfect. Thank you.
0:44:31 > 0:44:33'We went to this tea house.'
0:44:33 > 0:44:37And we had high tea. A very English thing to do.
0:44:37 > 0:44:41- Wow. - Oh! Fancy schmancy!
0:44:41 > 0:44:47You get like a platter of sandwiches and little cakes. And desserts.
0:44:47 > 0:44:51- Here's to our first, classy... - High tea.
0:44:51 > 0:44:54That's tricky.
0:44:54 > 0:44:58- You get your own type of tea. - Spin the loaves.
0:44:58 > 0:45:01Which will we try next?
0:45:01 > 0:45:05Ooh, squishy! 'There was like this'
0:45:05 > 0:45:08mango meringue. It was SO weird.
0:45:08 > 0:45:13- That's disgusting!- You're trying it. - Brittany will try it.
0:45:13 > 0:45:16I'm picky. I'd rather just have pasta.
0:45:16 > 0:45:19- Take a bite.- No.- Abby!
0:45:19 > 0:45:23'I'm more adventurous and will try different things.'
0:45:23 > 0:45:29- I like a wider range of food. - So trying things was easier for Brittany than for me.
0:45:31 > 0:45:37- You ready for this?- Yeah. Have you rown before?- No. - Is it rown?- Rowing. How about you?
0:45:37 > 0:45:39Have I ever "rown"?
0:45:39 > 0:45:45- We wanted to go out to Maidenhead. - Which is where we lived for two months and student taught.
0:45:45 > 0:45:50- Hello, hello.- 'One thing that our host family was into was rowing.'
0:45:50 > 0:45:54- And so we decided to do...- A rowing lesson on the River Thames.
0:45:57 > 0:46:04Drive with the legs, then pull in with my arms and then lean forward like so.
0:46:04 > 0:46:12- The instructor's name was Chris. - He was very good at rowing. - And he had taught a lot of newbies.
0:46:12 > 0:46:18Abby and Brittany, try to keep your arms straighter for longer. That's it!
0:46:18 > 0:46:23Oars we actually call blades. The end part we call the spoons.
0:46:23 > 0:46:30There's feathered and there's square. The right-hand side is called the stroke side.
0:46:30 > 0:46:33And this side is the bow side.
0:46:33 > 0:46:36To stop you, I'll say, "Easy there."
0:46:36 > 0:46:39- Is there going to be a test? - There's the test!
0:46:39 > 0:46:43- Don't dump me in! - I'm not going to dump you in.
0:46:43 > 0:46:47- I don't want any broken feet. Boats are not my friend.- OK.
0:46:47 > 0:46:50- Brittany, are you scared?- Yeah!
0:46:50 > 0:46:57- We play volleyball. Boats and water...- Break our feet! - We can't do this!
0:46:57 > 0:47:03- Whose idea was this?- Erin's! - No, it wasn't! Whose was it? - A team effort.
0:47:03 > 0:47:08- I'm going to hold it. - This isn't the hard bit!
0:47:08 > 0:47:10- I broke my foot twice.- Three times.
0:47:10 > 0:47:13Getting in is where I break it!
0:47:13 > 0:47:17As long as we get in the boat, we should be OK.
0:47:17 > 0:47:22- All right, let's do this. - Two ends of the handle.
0:47:22 > 0:47:25I'll help stabilise the boat. OK?
0:47:25 > 0:47:28- Oh, babycakes! Whoa!- OK.- Whoa!
0:47:28 > 0:47:30I'm laughing now, but...
0:47:30 > 0:47:36- Yeah, don't you even start to laugh! - OK.- Cos if I die...
0:47:39 > 0:47:42- I haven't got a job yet. - There we are.
0:47:42 > 0:47:47- There we go. They look like pros. - Yeah.- Yeah.
0:47:50 > 0:47:55Stroke. I want you to lift your spoons up. Take a baby stroke.
0:47:55 > 0:47:57And push down. And away.
0:47:57 > 0:48:01It didn't even go in the water.
0:48:01 > 0:48:05Their strokes would be off or their consistency...
0:48:05 > 0:48:07It was a trying time for all of us.
0:48:07 > 0:48:12It's not in the water! How do we do that? It's so hard.
0:48:12 > 0:48:13It is.
0:48:13 > 0:48:20Sculling with two blades needs absolute co-ordination and it is hard enough for one person
0:48:20 > 0:48:26to get that co-ordination going. It'll be doubly difficult for Abby and Brittany.
0:48:26 > 0:48:32- What am I doing wrong?- Ah! You don't want your bum to go "whoo" like that and shove the seat back.
0:48:32 > 0:48:35You want your shoulders coming back.
0:48:35 > 0:48:40Shove your arms out. Now come forward. And put them in.
0:48:40 > 0:48:47'I've never been a part of something with them that they couldn't achieve.'
0:48:47 > 0:48:54So I didn't think twice about it when we started to row. "Oh, this will be no problem."
0:48:54 > 0:49:00- He was very intense about his job. - You're not square on bow side! Got to make sure you're square!
0:49:00 > 0:49:05- Get square on bow side! - "Square! Square!" Oh...
0:49:05 > 0:49:10Whole crew, come on. In time with stroke. Make sure you're square.
0:49:10 > 0:49:15- Oh, sorry. Ah!- Ah! - We've all got out of sync so we'll start again.
0:49:15 > 0:49:19- The hard part was... - Being in sync with everyone.
0:49:19 > 0:49:23- Oh!- That was me.
0:49:23 > 0:49:26It's a very big thing of trust.
0:49:26 > 0:49:30Two, wait for stroke. In time with stroke!
0:49:30 > 0:49:32In, out.
0:49:32 > 0:49:37'They were able to get that difficult hand co-ordination together and also be'
0:49:37 > 0:49:42doing the other things, which is the leg, then pulling back with the arms.
0:49:42 > 0:49:45- You're getting it. - Are you sure?- Yeah!
0:49:45 > 0:49:50How they can manage that, you know, with two different controlling brains,
0:49:50 > 0:49:56I was extremely impressed. ..It's not square. That's it. Make sure it's square.
0:49:56 > 0:50:00'We are very co-ordinated, but we didn't know what his terms meant.'
0:50:00 > 0:50:03On the water! Easy!
0:50:03 > 0:50:06So we had to figure that out.
0:50:06 > 0:50:10It's not square on bow side. It's not square.
0:50:10 > 0:50:15- 'When you start to row, you need to have your oars...- Square!'
0:50:15 > 0:50:18Vertical and perpendicular with the water.
0:50:18 > 0:50:23- Keep checking that you're square. - Brittany, it's not square.
0:50:23 > 0:50:27You're not square. Easy now! Easy!
0:50:27 > 0:50:32Don't think your blades will be square. You have to keep checking.
0:50:32 > 0:50:34Check all the time.
0:50:34 > 0:50:38It was interesting to watch them communicate with each other,
0:50:38 > 0:50:45trying to figure out how to row at the same time, then one of them was done with it.
0:50:45 > 0:50:49Like, "I'm sick of it." Then it made everyone else off, too.
0:50:49 > 0:50:53It was interesting to see how they had to keep going.
0:50:53 > 0:50:57In, out! That's it.
0:50:57 > 0:51:02- We learned it. - Wow. We are motoring. Keep it slow.
0:51:02 > 0:51:04Don't get excited.
0:51:05 > 0:51:06Yes!
0:51:12 > 0:51:15- Yes!- Aaah!
0:51:15 > 0:51:18You forgot to square them!
0:51:18 > 0:51:21They're lovely girls, all of them.
0:51:21 > 0:51:26Easy. ..I feel honoured to have spent a session with them. I want to be their new best friend!
0:51:26 > 0:51:29There you go.
0:51:29 > 0:51:32Ta-da! Dry land!
0:51:32 > 0:51:39- - Thank you. - Thank you. That was so good. - Thank you so much.
0:51:41 > 0:51:42- Hey!- Hey!
0:51:45 > 0:51:48- How are you?- Hi!
0:51:48 > 0:51:50This is Jake and Emily.
0:51:50 > 0:51:53'After our rowing lesson,'
0:51:53 > 0:51:57we saw these kids we taught, Jake and Emily. They're so cute.
0:51:57 > 0:52:03Their mom is a teacher's assistant in the class that we were in, so we got to know her.
0:52:03 > 0:52:06Jake was in our math class.
0:52:06 > 0:52:09- They are going to grab some coffee. - OK.
0:52:11 > 0:52:15- Is it going to bite me? - No, it's fine.- Aaah!
0:52:15 > 0:52:21'We went to Odds Farm, which is like petting zoo/jungle gym. It was fun.'
0:52:21 > 0:52:26- Do you guys have school tomorrow? - Yes.- Do you have homework?- No.
0:52:26 > 0:52:28They taught me in maths and literacy.
0:52:28 > 0:52:31- So what do we do? - You pedal.- Just pedal?
0:52:31 > 0:52:34They're fun, so good to listen to.
0:52:34 > 0:52:37They're more proper and polite and respectful.
0:52:37 > 0:52:41- Ha!- I'm too big for this! - 'Really good personality.'
0:52:41 > 0:52:44Jake's going to get us!
0:52:44 > 0:52:48- It's hard!- You've got it! You're doing a good job!
0:52:48 > 0:52:53We really like them cos they're two separate people and really nice.
0:52:54 > 0:52:57- Ready and...go, go, go, go! - Thank you!
0:52:57 > 0:53:01'Did you get two different perspectives in teaching?'
0:53:13 > 0:53:20The schools are run very differently. They're more strict. Respect is driven in a lot harder.
0:53:20 > 0:53:25"The farmer's lost his sheep. Can you help him find them?"
0:53:25 > 0:53:27- Which way shall we go?- That way.
0:53:27 > 0:53:32Then go down here. ..Ah, a dead end.
0:53:32 > 0:53:34- What?!- Straight away.
0:53:34 > 0:53:37'We went through a maze.'
0:53:37 > 0:53:43The goal was to get through it and find all five sheep and remember them.
0:53:43 > 0:53:46- There's one!- There's a sheep.- Curly!
0:53:46 > 0:53:51- This is an actual maze. - Curly and Fluffy.
0:53:51 > 0:53:55- We're just doing a circle. - Are we?- There's Curly.
0:53:55 > 0:53:57It's really, really hard.
0:53:57 > 0:54:03- Which way? There's Fluffy again. - Have we been this way?
0:54:03 > 0:54:05It would be the same sheep.
0:54:05 > 0:54:08We're lost in this maze! Help!
0:54:08 > 0:54:11All right.
0:54:11 > 0:54:15- I'm going to say the names in British. Ready?- Yeah.
0:54:15 > 0:54:19ENGLISH ACCENT: Curly, Floppy and Snowdrop.
0:54:19 > 0:54:22- That was good! - Can you say it in American?
0:54:22 > 0:54:27- Curly, Fluffy, Snowdrop. - Whoo! Great! Jake?
0:54:27 > 0:54:30- AMERICAN ACCENT: - Uh, Curly...
0:54:30 > 0:54:34- Um, Fluffy and Snowdrop. - That's great!
0:54:34 > 0:54:39- Emily does a great American accent. - So does Jake. We tried British.
0:54:39 > 0:54:42We were just having fun. They were so cute.
0:54:42 > 0:54:46- Yay!- We made it! - And we got all of them!
0:54:46 > 0:54:49- Whoo!- Whoo!- Yes!
0:54:49 > 0:54:53- All right. Here we go! - Ready?- OK.- OK.
0:54:53 > 0:54:57- Whoo!- Yay! You did it!
0:54:57 > 0:55:02'Inside the barn was this soft-play obstacle course.'
0:55:02 > 0:55:07We were too big for it, but we went anyway.
0:55:07 > 0:55:08- Hey!- Hey!
0:55:08 > 0:55:13'It was more difficult than we thought.'
0:55:13 > 0:55:15ALL SCREAMING
0:55:16 > 0:55:22- 'But it was fun.- It was cute to see Jake and Emily so excited. - It was fun to hang out with them.'
0:55:22 > 0:55:25- They're so cute.- We love them.
0:55:25 > 0:55:28Bye, honey. It was lovely to see you.
0:55:28 > 0:55:31- Bye!- So good to see you.
0:55:33 > 0:55:38- I'm scared of heights.- I know. - Terrified. 'On our final night,'
