when you think of Abu Dhabi chances are
you're imagining futuristic skyscrapers
and six-lane highways but following road
salt from the city and you reach the so
called Empty Quarter 650,000 square
kilometers there are no buildings no
water and even though there are no roots
I'm about to take a driving lesson here
all right are you ready for the
adventure yeah okay you seatbelts course
and let's go this is the Empty Quarter
and all there is no one could cross it
all in the modern days when you have
cars like this it is the largest
uninterrupted send you desert of the
world and look at these dunes I mean we
are talking on average hundred meter
ideals and all those used to hundreds
and thousands of years to reach that
height I want this thing to fly all
right we're gonna climb now I think the
scariest bits when you can't see what it
is exactly
[Laughter]
here the sand yeah here that belongs
yeah that is terrifying
all right it's your turn now okay yeah
first training we'll be climbing the
dune and this Anita - okay then slow
down
break slight break no you break now yeah
okay in any crash back and one more time
like easy yeah yeah I know about one
that was good wasn't it
comforting
don't break don't break don't break oh
now you got stuck now we have to go out
and shovel
harima that's right I'm a little worried
that we're gonna be spending the night
in the desert no normally it will take
about 15 to 20 minutes maximum okay if
we do the right thing if you do the
wrong thing yes you can spend the week
here yeah yeah I can rely on you now and
you will be my survivor buddy
the desert for me means freedom endless
boundaries look at the dunes
it's the ups and downs of life the shape
of the Sandia's keep changing
it's a present given to you it's a new
drawing every day
that's the secret and that's why I love
the desert
