The following is the following. Are they at all? Yes, right. I need ice.
Ice? It's November, Julius. It's 5 degrees. Do you have a party?
No, I just need it. For... I have a thirst for very cold drinks. So, I'm going to go.
Bye! Wait a little. Julius, everything okay? You look like a little blass.
And you're sweating totally on the forehead. I'm going super, really. I'm just fine. The Supermarket makes right off.
I mean, I want to be the first. We're doing the ice. Why do you hold your right arm so weird? You're holding him very close to your belly.
What? No, I'm not. That's my new attitude. That's good for the back, said my trainer. Your trainer?
Let's say you said that Sport is a time-loss. Show me. No, really, Margaret. It's nothing.
Just a little bit of a cracker. I hit me on the door. It's not a cracker. It's not a cracker.
Julius, I'm a pregnant sister. I see if someone has pain. You're almost a cracker. I'm not a cracker.
It's just cold. I don't have ice yet. Stop with this shit. Please stand. Show me your arm.
Just. Okay. But don't worry. It's not so bad. I believe. Oh my God, Julius.
You call it a little bit of a little bit of a scratch? Your whole hand is red. And here at the hand, it's already blasted. Yeah, it looks a little wild.
But it's going. Wait, what's that on the face? It looks so fett. And it smells like...
Is that like a breakfast? That's butter. German-Butter. Tell me, that's a joke.
You've got butter on a burn. Of course. That's how you do it. My mom said,
if you burn yourself, do you want butter on it? That's fat. That's old house.
Your mom's in all Ehren. But that's the worst thing you can do. Julius, listen to me. That's dangerous.
Why dangerous? Butter is of course. Fett speichert Hitze. If you give butter on a hot heat,
you'll put the heat in the face. You'll put your hand on your own hand, like a Snitchel in the pan. Oh, that's why it's so bad?
I thought it was so. No, it's not so. We'll go in your house. But I wanted to buy ice.
We need water. Let's go. Let's go. Okay, hand under the water.
Yes, so. It's not ice cold. It's good. But it's burning.
My jacket is nass. Take the jacket out, but take the hand out of the water. I help you.
Now let's go. Okay, it's already been a minute. The butter is gone. Can I stop? No, 10 minutes.
15 minutes. 15 minutes? Margaret, that's a lot of waste. And it's so much. I can't sit here for a half and do my hand.
Yes, you can. And you have to. Listen, Julius, if the pan is gone, the heat is still in your body. The cells go on.
The heat remains in the body, the water takes away. That feels like a lot of trouble. I worked in the Antarktis, we know, at minus 40 degrees. We had everything possible to do.
But in my own kitchen being a little bit of metal, that's sad. You were in the Antarktis? Really? Yes, at the station Kohnen, the Queen Mordland. I was for months.
We have collected ice-bohr-kerne, hard work, no luxury and definitely no sister who told me how long I should wash my hands. Well, you are in Berlin and not in the ice. Here you are looking for yourself.
So, stay still. 12 minutes. How is that actually happened? You are so handworked, right?
I mean, who lives in the Antarktis, can probably cook. Well, I wanted to practice cooking. I try to improve my cooking skills. Not only Dosenfutter.
I wanted a perfect steak to eat. That's a steak. And then? I had the pan on high level. So hot.
So there's a nice crust. And then? Then I saw him. Wen saw?
A break? No, a ice-bunnel. Right on the window. On the old ice.
A real ice-fogel, Margaret. In Berlin. It's very seldom. The blue sky lighted so.
A fox? You burned out of a fox? It's not just a fox. It's a fantastic motif.
I wanted to get my camera. She always sits on the kitchen table. I hit it without seeing. And my arm was full on the edge of the gusseisers.
Ah, I understand. The great adventure Julius Jager. He fights against snowstorms and icebeeren, but a small blue eagle and a brad pfess are in front of him.
Lach du nur. That photo was a pretty bad picture, if I was to come. You and your photos, you are really possessed, right? Photography is important.
You have to hold the moment, or else you are away. Just like my skin. Deine skin will be again, if you're brave to keep it. We know you, these are often times happening.
So I'm here. Here in my kitchen? No, in Berlin. I'm doing a huge program in New Jersey.
Penn Medicine. Everything is big, loud, automatic. And here? I work in a small clinic.
There's more time for people. In the United States everything is very fast and often expensive. Here I like to take care of myself more. It's not just business. Old habits are hard to change.
I hate to go to the doctor. I wait to go away from alone. Why? Because you have a fear of Spritzen? No. Because I'm used to regal things.
In the Antarktis or in the mines in Norway, there was no doctor. If you had a pain, you did it. You bite the teeth. That's the survival mode. Wer jammert, verliert.
Das verstehe ich. In der Wildnis muss man stark sein. Aber Julius, schau dich um. Du bist in einer schönen, warmen Wohnung in Berlin. Ja, ich weiß.
Du musst nicht einfach damit klarkommen. Du darfst um Hilfe bitten. Das ist keine Schwäche. Das ist schlau. Wenn du die Verbrennung ignorierst, entzündet sie sich.
Dann kannst du wochenlang keine Kamera halten. Ist das stark? Nein, das wäre ziemlich dumm. Eben. Also lass mich dir helfen.
I like that. So, the water is out. The skin looks better, but it will be a blast. I make a sterile band. Very nice. Thank you. It's not a bit of a way.
That water helped. You see, the science works. You said you like to trickle? Oh yes, that's my hobby.
I stricke Mützen, small figures, small figures. It's a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit. I try to even sell a few things online, on Etsy. That's cool.
Is that the business? Not at all. Nobody buys something. I think it's on my photos.
I make them with my phone, at the sofa. They are always unscharf or the colors are wrong. That beautiful dunkelrot looks like browner Matsch. Browner Matsch is bad.
That's right. I'm not a photographer. I can't help you to save the world, but I can't set the light. But I can do that.
