"This programme contains some strong language" "HEAVY METAL" "HE WHISTLES" "GUN FIRES" "You Mujahideen!" "Whatever!" "Nothing is innocent here." "First man on this part of the world." "As an artist, when you're with scientists, the first moment, you just feel like a clown." "Yeah, yeah." "Because you don't know..." "I mean, we're educated with the idea that you're supposed to know, you know, how things works." "But as an artist, you actually deal with stuff you have no idea about." "It's a lot of, uh..." "It seems like artists are the only persons..." "There's a lot of simulation going on." "Also there is, I think..." "No, actually, it's the only thing that the artist is good in, is not knowing something." "Everybody else gets paid or gratified for knowing something." "The artist mainly works with the fact that he's not knowing something." "Yeah, and..." "He's an idiot!" "Yeah, but it's a productive thing." "Yeah." "I mean, are they curious?" "Yeah." "But not necessarily attacking six individuals their size." "No." "That's bear." "That's bear?" "That's bear." "That's musk ox." "And the musk ox were "whaang!" down here." "If I was the one to take the decision, I'd order you to stay." "Oh, yeah?" "Yes, I would." "But I'm not leading this expedition." "And I'm not responsible for you." "We take your advice." "We are petit bourgeois anarchists." "We don't follow orders." "Give me the gun!" "Don't you think it was this one?" "This was it." "Yeah, it took me three years to finally find a 500-year-old musk ox." "I don't give a shit about natural protection." "It's us against them." "Isn't it beautiful that we will all end like this?" "Isn't it?" "It has always been like this." "These flat stones could indicate platforms made by humans." "I would really love it to be of Stone Age origin, but I have to find a flake to support it." "Woo hoo!" "So this is the end of the world?" "More or less?" "Kind of gives me the creeps." "It just says, "Don't come here." ""Don't harass, don't play with us." "Don't fool me." "Don't make noise."" "The end of the world." "RUMBLING" "See the rainbow on the other side?" "There's a big rainbow on the other side." "In the beginning, God put a rainbow up on the sky as a kind of proof for mankind that he would never let the water rise again." "Well, OK, it heats up." "So what?" "Mankind has always been dragged through oceans and sand storms and mountains and has always proved that it can adapt." "So, if they are just all melting, then we all move to the Alps." "We invade Switzerland." "You know?" "It's getting warm up there, the Alps will melt." "All fine." "All fine." "It's just like we are clinging so nostalgically to our state of life now." ""Oh, no." "We need two cars."" "No, maybe we need a raft." "HEAVY ROCK MUSIC" "There's a fight for resources everywhere in the eco system and every time there's a niche that somebody else is not using, somebody will move in and adapt to exploit that." "What we see is true with all evolution is that life adapts to some environmental condition, it tries to be as fit as possible." "And when they reach that point where they're really good at it, they proliferate and there is a lot of them, and through their metabolic activity and whatever they do, they are able to change that environment which they have adapted to." "So then you're back to... back to... back to a problem again, so of course then they have to adapt to the environment that they caused, and by the time they're almost there, they influence, so it's a constant kind of rolling system where you..." "..where you never reach your goal and I think that you can see that humans are at that point in our development right now, where we are changing the environment faster than we can adapt to it, basically." "The whole thing about having a civilisation, I guess, is going against nature." "I mean, it's going the other way, away from nature." "That's the human project." "We put nature out of play and make our own rules." "I guess that's what it's all about, isn't it?" "That's a very pessimistic way of putting it, I would say." "You think that man is so strong?" "Maybe not, but only time will show." "Yeah." "Nature is only great, I think, because man exists and only because we left it behind we can now come back and say," ""Oh, look how beautiful it is."" "It's hard for me to imagine that the mountains look at each other on a snowy day and admire themselves, you know?" "Or that the musk ox walks through here and says," ""Oh, today is a very beautiful day," ""related to the day yesterday, where the light was not so balmy."" "If they do, they don't find a way to prove this to us." "You know?" "We make them alive." "We will only rule for a short time, and then it is back to... ..to the spider, I don't know." "But as far as we know, the spider don't write poems." "OMINOUS MUSIC PLAYS" "MEN LAUGH" "But what is..." "What is he doing behind the house?" "Maybe he's trying to get in the house." "Gosh..." "BEAR GRUNTS" "THROWN ROCK HITS HUT" "MAN CHUCKLES" "It's just a question of whether we get through the narrow channel, because it's not very deep." "It shallows right up, up to the beach in the narrow bit." "(ON RADIO) 25." "19." "17." "12." "6." "5." "4." "They hunt for oil." "They want to drill into the ocean or the water to make more money." "How can I like them?" "I'm too rigid for that." "For sure they are nice people, like everybody, but I don't care." "Like I said, they can kiss my shiny metal ass." "It's quite massive." "It's all coming down now." "It's really crazy."
