Things are changing at the world's oldest hotel 第 6 集

Nishivama Onsen Keiunkan is not just the world's oldest hotel, but the world's oldest still-operating business. Or at least, that's one way of looking at it. But things are changing here, just like they always have.

The military base where you drive over the runway 第 9 集

Meiringen Air Base, in Switzerland, has an unusual feature: two public roads that go straight over the runway. How do they keep it safe? And, as a side note, just how loud is it when you're standing next to a fighter jet?

The world’s cleanest railway 第 10 集

This is an excuse to show you a really good tunnel 第 13 集

The Catesby Tunnel, in the UK, is an old Victorian railway tunnel that has a new use: a secretive car testing facility, like a wind tunnel but in reverse. So rather than just show it to the world, I thought I'd answer a question: if you stick a camera on the outside of your car, how much does the drag cost you?

I had to throw out my script about this submarine simulator 第 15 集

Storing dead people at -196°C 第 19 集

In Switzerland, there's a new cryonics company: and they invited me to have a look around. I had questions: legal, practical, and ethical, and I want to be clear: this is not an endorsement. I just wasn't going to turn down that invitation.

This town throws pennies at people. They hurt. 第 21 集
