Vice Versus - Vienna Hardstyle
Hardstyle is a subgenre of techno and in the last 5 years has become a big scene amongst the kids of Vienna.

We follow a team as they practice for the big dance off!

Shooting Fish Champion
The Archer Fish uses its mouth as a bow and a stream of water as an arrow to shoot prey lurking above the surface. Not only must it hit a moving target but it also solves a complex problem of physics in the process. As it sets its aim, the fish calculates and corrects for the refractive bending of light through the water. Its gill covers shut, thrusting water along a groove, releasing a stream of aqua arrows.
