- From the Styrian capital Graz with its unique architecture the series’ second episode starts off. Roofer Barbara Rockenbauer maintains the historic roofs in the old town. Just outside of Graz a man fights the forces of nature: the so called “hail-bomber” Walter Golob. With his plane he flies directly into thunder clouds and sprays silver iodide, so that the hail goes down as rain instead. Like this, he protects the wine and fruit farmers’ harvest.
The route follows over the alpine pastures of Castle Piber. The stallions of Vienna’s Spanish Riding School spend their youth here. The journey takes us further to National Park Gesaeuse, where a diver explores and charts the caves of the area. The destination of the trip are the lakes of the Aussee region, the Styrian part of Salzkammergut. Here canyoning athletes hike through deep crevices and waterfalls. On Lake Grundlsee, people cross the waters on boats that resemble the gondolas of Venice. Erhard Amon still knows how to build these boats.

The Alps are the most prominent mountain range in Europe and also one of the most accessible. Over thousands of years, a unique landscape was created in which man and nature shaped each other.

Austria’s beautiful…but for the Austrians themselves. Cold, rude and xenophobic, they seemed to have learned nothing after losing two world wars! I’d rather visit war-time Ukraine than Austria!
@@martinfurtner2136 - Austria enjoyed a pent-up post Corona bump, as did the rest of the world. Also, many in this figure you offered were domestic travelers. Austrians are notorious for not traveling far from their borders…which also contributed to their sociocentric behavior. Austria’s a beautiful country…except for the Austrians.
@@martinfurtner2136 - Definition of 'Sociocentric': Oriented toward one's own social group, to regard one's own social group as superior to others.
You know…that charming little Austrian phrase…
Übermensch?
You know, that little thing about biologically “superior” Aryan, Germanic master race THINGY?
My god! Whenever I think of Austrians, I think of a Deix cartoon. These are the same people that install Tobak cigarette Shops in their hospital lobbies! Or close their stores on Sundays so they can shop on top of each other like sardines on Saturdays. Pfft! Übermensch? Austria is a nightmare!
Not different to ALL countrys! Some countrys didnt fight and lose a ww but are also cold,rude and xenophopic!
@@WienerVL - They attempted genocide and while they were at it, attempted to take over the world. I would say that Germany and Austria still have a lot of apologizing to do. Instead we get this cold country with even colder people.
apparently these people (and the movie producers) have never heard of the Venice and the Gondolas....and I'm sure there are plenty of other places that can guide a boat w/ one oar. I really like watching Wocomo videos but sometimes it just seems they are either biased or completely out of touch with the rest of the world.
