One thing about New York that you never get to hear about in videos whether it in a film or something else, it's that this city stinks a lot. It doesn't even come, Oh my God, the skyline is gone. It's like a tornado of rain. Like a Marvel villain has just come. -Yeah, that's true. -Oh, my God! Wow! It's like it comes down, and then goes up like this. -You don't even see it on camera. -Don't you? Not really that well. It's crazy, it suddenly came like this! Oh my God, and now the skyline is completely gone. -Yeah. -And just like one minute ago, I was seeing it very clearly. Good thing we were not outside. -This time. -Oh my God! There's no way to avoid getting caught up in it. It's the wind...yeah. And now it's becoming visible again slowly. Slowly, but so quickly actually. I don't see it yet. No, I don't see any... -I see nothing. -But I see the park now. -I don't know what you're seeing. -I see the park and the cars now. I don't see the cars. Look at it how quickly it's becoming visible. But in the distance, I'm looking in the distance. Yeah, I'm also. The building that you see behind me, this is the World's Thinnest Skyscraper. The width of it looks somewhat normal from this angle, so I'll show you the building from another angle, then you'll realise how thin and tall it is. Friends, this is New York's Billionaires' Row. The skyscrapers of this row that you see behind me, the apartments in these buildings are so exorbitantly expensive, it is said that only billionaires can afford living in them. That's why this row is known as Billionaires' Row. And do you know what's most interesting? The building that you see behind me, the topmost apartment in it, is priced around $130 to $140 million. "At the iconic, 432, Park Avenue building. So it truly feels like you are floating in the clouds. I also want to point out that all the walls in this unit are trim-less. But we're going to now leave this stunning Grand Salon, and make our way into your chef's kitchen." These buildings are so tall that they are an architectural marvel in their own right. They are so narrow, and built at such a height, on a comparatively small base. So to build it as high, they had to leave gaps at some intervals. You can see it here. So that the building doesn't sway in the wind. So these floors, these and these, they are left empty. They are for the air to pass through, no one lives on these floors. If you stand here and look up, it looks like it's gonna fall on you. It looks like it's leaning forward. It's also because our head has to move so much up to see the top. This is me looking straight. And... Literally, this is how I have to look up. One thing about New York, that is never talked about in videos or films that you see, it's that this city stinks a lot. No matter where you are, this city smells terribly. One of the reason behind is it that each evening, the roads are full of overflowing trash bags. And the second reason for it is that the gutters here, as you walk through the city you'll notice steam coming out of them, and that steam has a terrible smell. India first. This is crazy, this is like such a big dump of garbage in the middle of the road. And you'll also find people scavenging for food in the garbage bin. The homeless people around here. It stinks so much! We have been to so many places all around the world, but we've hardly seen any place as stinky as this city. Finally, we can do your "Taxi!" Once in my life, I want to hail a taxi like, Taxi! How are they doing movies, you know? -Yeah. -Yeah. Where...Oh, the taxis are stopping there. Wow, since the taxi is already waiting, there's no need to hail it. "Hello, helicopter flight services?" That's so cool that the machine is there. We are in a newly developed part of the city, and this area is extremely noisy, because helicopters are constantly landing and taking off from here. This is the Brooklyn Bridge. We're near the Brooklyn Bridge, and this is the only area in Now York's Manhattan, from where helicopters can take off and land for tourism. Many companies providing helicopter services, operate out of here. This is in the South of Manhattan. Look at the waves produced by the landing helicopter. Are you ready for fishing? "...and the spinning blades of the tail rotor at all times..." This is the safety instruction briefing. "...balance the aircraft..." "...lighter passengers will usually go at the front..." "...please, do not step on the flaps..." Lighter passengers are at the front that means I have a chance to be at the front. You're heavier than me. We read about an accident which took place in New York in which the helicopter crashed into the water, and people drowned to death. This life jacket that we're given, is very crucial. This was the article we read. The 2018 helicopter crash. This had actually happened in Manhattan. And it was a tourism helicopter. There were tourists on board it. It was quite scary reading this. Yeah, I'm also scared. Oh, we are the first ones to sit. Yeah. We both got a nice seat. -Are you ready? -I'm ready. This is your second helicopter flight. I don't like it. There are so many things to see on this helicopter tour. Like the Statue of Liberty, the skyline of New York, Central Park, this is why we won't visit the Statue of Liberty, because we can get a good view from up here. So there's no need to go there. The tour was superb! There were so many things to see. Even Uber provides helicopter services here. In case you want to use helicopters instead of Uber cars, you can do so here. Once again, there were three options for booking the helicopter ride. For 15 minutes, 20 minutes or 30 minutes. We chose the 30 minutes long option because we thought that if we're up in the helicopter longer, it'll be more fun. Once again, this was a bad decision. Like the last time at the Empire State Building. Because the main area, the thing that we were actually supposed to see, could have been over within 15 minutes. So there's no need to book a 30 minutes long helicopter ride. When you visit, you can choose the shortest ride for 15 minutes, that's worth it the most. It's the same thing with the Empire State Building. Even there, you don't necessarily need to go up to the top floor.
