▶ The Himalayas and Andes, the breath of the Earth heard from the highest places How do the people of the Himalayas, the roof of the world, and the Andes, a volcanic region covered in perennial snow, live? '23.5' The Chipaya tribe of the red salt lake of the Altiplano, a volcanic region covered in perennial snow. Just as humans breathe, the Earth also breathes. '23.5' is a story about the miracle of nature and life created by the tilted axis of the Earth. Part 4 of '23.5', 'Breathe Deeply: Alpine', depicts the lives of the indigenous people living in the Himalayas and the Altiplano plateau of the Andes. ▶ The land that started from the lowest place and became the highest place, the people of the Himalayas The Himalayas, where the highest peaks on Earth are over 8,000m above sea level, are literally the 'roof of the world'. However, it is said that even the highest place, the Himalayas, were under the sea tens of millions of years ago. And even now, this place is slowly rising little by little, following the deep and slow breathing of the Earth. We follow Nawang (20), who lives in the 5,000m-high mountainous region that even professional mountaineers find breathtaking, and uncover the secret of the 23.5-degree tilt of the Earth’s rotation axis hidden in the Himalayas. ▶ Breathing heavily The Altiplano Plateau in the Andes The Altiplano Plateau, which spreads across the Andes, is a land created by volcanoes. The Andes, which freezes and melts repeatedly, contains both cold glaciers and fiery volcanoes and breathes heavily. The Chipaya people who live here make a living by hunting flamingos living in red salt lakes that look like they’re on fire, using slingshots. Through the Himalayas and Andes, which are representative highlands in the Northern and Southern Hemispheres, and the breathtaking lives of the indigenous people who have settled here, the deep and slow breathing of the Earth over tens of millions of years, created by the 23.5-degree tilt of the Earth’s rotation axis, is captured on camera. It tells the story of the miracle of nature and life created by the Earth’s tilted axis. ※ This video is [KBS Special Project for the Foundation of Construction (23.5) Part 4 - Breathe Deeply, Gosan (March 26, 2020)].
