All right, we're going to go check out this old fortress
In what city are we in? Samobor, Samobor so the Samobor castle in Samobor?
Croatia, back in Croatia
Look, how steep this is. Oh that looks-- barely a trail. No, it's so steep. No, quit your cryin. Go try it
See if you fall down. Oh my god
Come on, just run up it. no i'm gonna slip. you're not gonna slip have confidence go for it
Go for it. I'm gonna slip. watch, here
You gotta stay behind me and push me. I gotta stay behind you to catch you? no push me up. push you?!
push me up the
Okay
I can't do this
Are you drunk? It is too steep!
It is not too steep, it's barely a hill. no it is so steep Wayne and it's gravelly loose gravel
It's not gravelly. It's not gravely gravel. It's gravely gravel
For someone that hikes all the time you sure don't have a lot of confidence in your hiking abilities
I do but i'm not
Familiar with this it's scary
And it's wet. Ah, it's barely a hike. What do those signs mean one's a turtle way. Okay slow as a turtle
Is that what that means? No, I need your help, please
It's so wet and slippery plus the loose gravelly gravel. but i'm not sliding. Yeah, the elevation climb is quite quite large
I don't know what that sign says. Stari Grad, I see that. Okay. If it says Stari Grad is closed i'm gonna be pissed when I get there
We're still on the trail up. We're getting closer to it
Looks like uh, it hasn't been preserved too well, it looks pretty neat to me
known among film lovers it is the location that almost cost Jackie Chan his life
Really? yeah, I didn't know that. oh, yeah the Czech king Ottokar built this in 1268
I think I like the castles that are not like perfect, you know
like we've been going to all these castles that are kind of rebuilt and refurbished. This has just got a cooler element to it
Oh yeah--Look at this wall, I
Mean, I don't know that brick is pretty old
Whatcha doin?
oh just doing a little explorin
out on a ledge?
yeah
live on the edge!
Almost a thousand years old
it's made out of rock. No way check this out! Obviously. It's missing the floor
This is cool. Yeah, you can see where the old floor was right here all the way
around. wonder what it was used for
I don't know
Welcome to my home in Croatia. I think you need to do some housekeeping
I love castle exploring!
Look at those vines no way. those have been there for a couple weeks
couple weeks?! couple years...
You got the open air discount didn't you? I I sure did I like it
Makes me feel more one with Mother Nature
Look at those, uh
Cornices or whatever they're called
that would have been for the
Beautiful roof that was probably painted or something crazy. so many holes, you know, so it makes you wonder what the room was
It could have been a chapel
This would have looked like a chapel a little bit
You know a lot of times you'll see these columns in church--in the chapel's inside. Maybe this was the dance--well--
No, it would be too small. Yeah
I mean basically i'm just basing this on some of the castles that i've been in you know
Where that to me looks more like the actual chapel
What's cool about this castle too is?
There's no entrance fee, it's free
You know, I like freebies. so they go down here
when you're ready
Down here? No i'm confused. This is how you go out where you're trying to go. oh you go down right? You go to the same spot
Okay, i'll meet you there i'm gonna take
This is the bat cave
the bat cave?
Oh, you can't go this way--yeah, you can. where'd you go Rapunzel?
Right here! you're going to fall down and go boom. No, i'm not i'm not going to go down that way
