Anton: Chile peppers are World famous for being so hot, on a scale to a hundred…
Nastya: Hush it. Good morning, this is once again the Heads and Tails Reloaded.
Nastya: Today we continue our big American journey
Anton: We landed in a long... please hold that... really stretched out country of Chile in the capital city Santiago.
Nastya: It's stretched out and it's a great thing!
Anton: What's up Santiago!
Nastya: It's been a while since I did my victory dance!
Anton: No comments.
Anton: Can you chill out for a sec?
Nastya: I'm starting my long rich vacation. See ya!
Anton: I'll go get in a long bus line then. Have a chill time in Chile!
Мass demonstrations...
protests and strikes...
garbage and dirt...
dispersal by water cannons and tear gas...
These are our Santiago memories from six years ago.
This isn't the first time the Reloaded project gives cities a second chance to make a good first impression.
Como estas Santiago?
First things first. I had to break my $100 and now I have 63,000 pesos.
That's about a quarter of an average local monthly salary,
so I think for two days I'll be more than covered.
Let's see what a hundred bucks does here, 15 kilometers away from downtown.
That is an issue in Chile – nobody speaks English.
Millions of tourists visit Chile every year,
yet you'd be hard pressed to find anyone who knows at least a few basic phrases in English.
The only language here is Spanish.
My ticket is almost $3, so not too bad.
Thanks for the heads up to my mate, I know now that after this bus I will have to hop on a train.
A subway card is called "bip!" because that's how you swipe it – Bip! Bip!
The card itself costs $2.50,
then you have to charge it for a needed amount of train and bus rides,
but you can't bring your card back after you're done using it to return your two bucks.
First impressions in Santiago are rather pleasant.
Subway is very clean and people are nicely dressed
Feels like the 1st class!
Since Chile is a stretched out country, I'm gonna need a long stretched out limousine!
Let's ride!
I said we can go now.
Santiago I rented a limo preferred by Presidents of the United States – a stretch Cadillac.
Riding around presidential for a day will cost you a cool $2000.
For that kind of money they should have installed some massage seats,
fresh flowers would have been better than this plastic funeral ornament.
Champagne snacks have to be lobster and caviar, not an assortment of lollypops!
It is what it is. Let it be my the asian style limo!
Table is set.
What do we have here? This is genius!
When you finish drinking your bottle and then feel like having one more glass, all you have to do is go like this!
There's your night cap and life is grand!
Santiago is vast, calm and very pleasant.
Nice to be in this warmth, away from winter back home.
First spot that locals advise to begin exploring downtown is Plaza de Armas.
This square signifies all things Santiago. Here are colonial style buildings, a Cathedral and a shiny glass tower.
As if they picked their architecture blindly from a bag.
So what makes this Plasa so attractive for tourists?
Turns out that I was looking the wrong way.
This whole time I shouldn't have been watching the people instead of buildings.
Santiago is an extremely cheerful town!
Everywhere people are hanging out, playing chess, singing and dancing.
Oozing party atmosphere won't let your feet stay still.
It feels like downtown Santiago is the city's richest and most carefree area,
but should you turn the corner…
Gang graffiti,
trash,
crumbling wall plaster.
Santiago's city center can be very dysfunctional.
People of Santiago sure like to take to the street and protest.
Students demand cheaper public transportation and free education.
Every week unions demand better working conditions.
Feels almost like they don't need a special occasion, they just wanna get together and hang out.
he aftermath looks like a dump of course.
I'm noticing a lot of electric fences as we going
People are trying to secure themselves and their property.
I'm all for it if you asked me. I wouldn't want strangers stealing and tearing thru my stuff like raccoons.
Not even fruit from my garden, I'd get the wired fence too.
Main squares - La Moneda. La Moneda? La Moneda!
I have a feeling there's an untold rule that all of the main squares in the World have the same exact blueprint.
Everywhere you get a large Government building,
a statue of some renowned dude from the past.
A huge flag and the fountain.
Oh, also can't forget about pigeons.
Pigeons are a must have!
Every day at 11 o'clock there's a change of the guard that takes place on the other side of this building.
I seem to be the only one dressed for the occasion, reppin Chile's National flag!
No one else is taking this official occasion seriously enough! C'mon people!
The change of the guard itself takes all but three seconds – two guards march up two cement stairs,
but the entire official part is nothing short of a real parade.
Carabineers and Cavaliers pompously stroll thru the Plasa.
It's certainly not Cirque du Soleil,
but it's spectacular, musically, it's every day and it's free.
Since I'm riding presidential thru Santiago I might as well lay my head in a presidential sweet.
Holding on to my status in Intercontinental hotel will total me $2500 per night.
Designers of this hotel used green walls instead of the usual boring facade.
Would you look at the size of that table!
Too bad my friends aren't here.
I swear my grandmother has the exact same carpet.
I love it!
So unusual! My patio has a bar, a small lobby and a bathtub!
This is too cool!
Look at the mountains and the city skyline!
While "Heads and Tails" were touring around the globe,
Santiago added to its list of attractions in an impressive way.
This is the tallest building in Latin America. Gran Torre Santiago.
From here the city view looks pretty meh if you subtract the mountains.
Although, it's not Chileans fault their capital's skyline does not rival those of Paris or New York,
because they essentially live on a powder keg time bomb.
An earthquake can happen here at any second and wipe out the entire city.
Just like it happened in 1960
Then Santiago suffered the most powerful earthquake possible – 9.5 points on a Richter scale,
instantly turning the city into ruins
and burying thousands of people under wreckage.
It is because of the constant danger the city had to make adjustments.
To keep metro from derailing during a possible quake they use rubber wheels, just like those on rollercoasters.
All buildings are reinforced by additional steel carcasses.
Tall structures are built on special cement cushions that absorb impact from trembling.
A giant like Gran Torre required a foundation pit over 100 meters deep,
keeping it safe from an 8 point earthquake.
Wonder how they built all of that.
Santiago is well-known for this one particular spot called Legs Café.
I'm gonna have to check this place out and see what all the fuss is about
and bring the cameraman with me.
How you doing?
I couldn't tell.
Who's serving coffee?
Can I get a hug too?
Beginning to lose my mind at this point.
This isn't a strip joint or a whorehouse.
This is what an ordinary café in Santiago looks like.
it's obvious why they call them cafes on legs.
Legs you can admire along with the rest of the curves.
Curvy parts are poking right out.
Every café needs to approve of this uniform forever.
You'll have to excuse me, I'm a little shy.
Cheers!
Bartender doesn't even have to talk.
This café has the best view I've ever seen!
Would look at this panorama!
I've never seen anything like this, it's genius.
How do I get a membership card?
How can I leave?
The service was great!
Now I need to pay.
Drinks are all non-alcohol, even the beer.
Great idea for a business plan.
I think I might get another coffee.
Cafes on legs appeared 50 years ago,
when the government closed all brothels and bars.
Enterprising Chileans opened daytime cafes
with this tempting special atmosphere
The main duties of girls are to praise and caress customers.
These waitresses earn 2000 dollars per month
Feels like I haven't drunk coffee for a long time.
Need some coffee... again...
Having a limo is nice and all, but to make a real splash in Santiago
I need to mount the beast that'll give Elon Musk a run for his money!
That's not a ping-pong table.
This is Apollo 3, a solar powered vehicle.
Creating this car was possible because Chile gets 300 sun days a year.
Its entire carcass is made from hydrocarbon fiber
and it has a set on aluminum discs for wheels.
It weighs only 200 kilos.
Oh, simple! What about steering?
This setup looks really weird,
because it has no pedals and no steering wheel as such.
You need to operate it with buttons on a wooden joystick which is somehow screwed to a rusty pipe.
To move forward you need to switch a black lever on the right.
Red lever is for braking
and wooden plate is your steering wheel.
Look out danger,
here I come!
Hereby I declare the solar races officially open!
Nastya in space!
My solar car is being powered by the sun!
I feel bit disoriented.
Son of a ***!
Every time you hit a pothole you feel like this car will fall apart on you just like your teeth.
That deep hole didn't feel good either.
Son of a… sun.
Car's owner claims it can speed up to 120 kilometers per hour.
I'll have to take his word on that.
What kind gadget is this?
I barely have any control over this thing!
Let's speed up...to 15 kms...
It's literally impossible to drive it in the city.
No mirrors, no turn lights, how do I change lanes?
We are all doomed! Help me! Right now!
We are stalling the traffic! Quick!
Pull me out!
That way.
Why do you have to honk? We're already out damn it.
This is worse than driving a stick.
This is how Michael Schumacher must have felt like.
I'm all sore, need a Jacuzzi.
Now that boys and girls is how you operate solar powered machinery!
Santiago's downtown area is notorious, while the outskirts are visibly much better off.
You see gardeners, luscious lawns and houses that are drenched in plants.
This is great news for a tourist on a tight budget,
because you don't have to travel far for cheaper accommodation.
There are dozens of affordable hostels and hundreds of murals in Bella Vista area which is also located in the center.
My hostel is definitely the most colorful and has the cutest name ever – "Gnomo"!
There's no one to "hola" here with.
Couple of bunk beds, couple of closets, and a couple of Brazilian female roommates!
What else could a guy wish for?
Last time a member of Heads and Tails was in downtown Santiago it was literally reminiscent of hell.
It's been five years and today this place looks a lot different.
While some prefer sitting in front of a screen with a keyboard these people fancy to be out and about.
Folks in Santiago party like they never heard about Wi-Fi or smartphones.
This place is live!
Dude, not cool. Can I have one morning without a camera in my face?
I'm at this ranch to see what locals consider the 2nd most popular sport after soccer – Chilean rodeo.
Two horse riders have to subdue a bull.
The riders are called huaso.
They can be spotted from a mile away, because they wear traditional capes,
straw hats and cowboy boots with humongous spurs.
In Chile huaso is looked upon as a folk tale hero.
So instead of videogames local youth is looking for a horse to mount.
If you're in Chile you need to see the local rodeo.
Two dudes riding on huge horses smash this calf into a concrete wall.
He's trying to get away obviously.
Unlike bulls in a corrida, it's just a baby calf they chase from one side to another.
It's a two on one brawl so he stands no chance.
This sport comes off as cruel at first,
but you need to understand the history behind it.
This is how locals herded cattle hundreds of years ago.
As in any sport there are points, winners and losers.
Whomever gets the most points wins.
Four points are awarded for clutching a bull by its rear,
three for the belly squeeze
and two for pressing the front end.
Stopping a bull by its head is the easiest, so no points are awarded for that.
Locals don't consider this sport malicious, after all, they're not murdering the bull on live TV.
I hope when this calf matures and comes into his own he will become a politician and ban this sport for good.
That revenge would be so sweet!
I tend to save the best for last.
If you dare to imitate me, just bungee jump into Colorado River from a 50 meter bridge.
This won't be my first bungee jump. Remember when I had to hop off a 152 meter tower in Vienna?
I was standing at the edge for good ten minutes.
I begged not to do it.
That step I took was the scariest and most stressful moment of my life.
Before filming this trip I said that I'd be ready to do just about anything except for another bungee.
What do I get? I get another effing jump!
I want to thank everyone who contributed to making this idea come to life.
You thought that since I've done that once already there won't be any trouble the second time around.
That's bull.
I swear it, you feel horrified until the time they take you off.
The scariest part is the wait and seeing the bridge.
I can feel my heartrate going up. Taking that step is crazy.
F*** that and F*** you guys.
This bungee looks a lot scarier than the one in Vienna where I at least got to land on a cushion.
Here I look down and see angry muddy river water with gigantic rocks.
I'll try not to cry this time, but we'll see.
This is it, it's my turn.
Damn! I'm not gonna do it.
No camera could capture what I see right now.
I can't look down, this is insane.
This is how they strap you up. It's the moment of truth.
My legs are shaking, but I'm all right.
I'm doing it. To all my loved ones back home, I'm doing this for you.
Just know that I love you.
From Santiago I decided to take a bus for a half-a-day trip to Valparaiso.
The fare was only $7.
Valparaiso is an ancient seaside town located on the coast of the Pacific Ocean.
The hills are covered with a myriad of colorful houses.
his view reminds me of a flowerbed, a definite must-see, because a bus ride only takes 90 minutes.
Can we play a hero theme music in the background for my hero walk?
This is Heads and Tails and we run this town!
That's how you shut your mouth and do it!
Valparaiso is 500 years old, which is pretty respectable.
Yet this town feels very young and fresh.
Valparaiso reminds me of children's coloring books
ightseeing is nice of course, but I couldn't pass on an opportunity to try a famous local delicacy.
The so called live rocks.
It doesn't feel like a rock, actually feels pretty soft.
I wouldn't call it a smell, this is a stench.
Practically a piece of poop that reeks of rotten fish.
If I saw this on a street I'd try not to step on it,
yet it's the hottest item in Chile's top restaurants.
Can you get the money out for me? My hands are dirty.
Are you serious? I just need a small one.
Piura live in colonies on the underwater rocks.
It's squirting everywhere.
These pores filter ocean water.
Allegedly, it absorbs bad fat acids and is also helps to level your cholesterol.
You sure I can eat this raw?
Disgusting!
Feels like my mouth is full of dirt.
t tastes like fish's guts but worse.
Feels like sand too.
All right, take two.
This is literally the worst thing I've eaten in my entire life.
The good news is that now I have a kilo of this crap.
Like we always do at this time, I'm leaving you with a hundred dollars.
Santiago definitely boasts a Chile pepper flavor.
Never know what kind of week-end you will have here.
We were lucky enough to see Santiago filled with singing, dancing and people's smiles.
I enjoyed my experience here.
I also enjoyed Santiago with my gold card.
Thanks for all the fun and all things unexpected!
Oi oi oi! Look who we have here!
How are you? Did you like the city?
I'll let you tell me first Anton.
Why should I go first? You always go first.
It's about time you took some initiative in this relationship!
Why don't we flip a coin for it then?
Whomever tells their story first. Tell it to everyone watching.
Only this time I call tails. You can have heads.
For the first time ever – tails!
Heads, I mean…
You go first! Too bad nobody wants to listen to you.
We'll see you in the next city folks! Kisses!
What do you mean nobody wants to listen me? I ate the nastiest thing today!
Don't wanna hear it. Check out my rap about Santiago.
Are out of tour mind?
I am paying you and you can't delete a comment?
Can't you see the goal in front of you? Two left feet!
