Using a new experimental technique, based on the scattering of ultrasounds, we perform a direct measurement of particle velocities, in a fully turbulent flow. This allows us to approach intermittency in turbulence from a dynamical point of view and to analyze the Lagrangian velocity fluctuations in the framework of random walks. We find experimentally that the elementary steps in the walk have random uncorrelated directions but a magnitude that is extremely long range correlated in time. Theoretically, a Langevin equation is proposed and shown to account for the observed one- and two-point statistics. This approach connects intermittency to the dynamics of the flow.
