You Wouldn't Believe What They Have To Do For $8/Day 😳

- These miners work for $8/day in sulphuric and volcanic conditions sacrificing their lungs and bodies as they carry immensely heavy loads of sulphur balanced on small wooden baskets on their shoulders for 12+ hours per day! Considering the conditions, the lack of gear, and how low the wage is, this has to be the hardest job in the world. But these brave miners learn to work with the incredibly challenging obstacles in their way to provide food for their families.
They work inside the Mt. Ijen volcanic crater in East Java, Indonesia. Once they complete the difficult task of climbing the volcanic crater to the top, they have to break the sulphur into small pieces, bag it, and put it in a trolly. At that point they decide if they are done for the day, or if they go back into the volcano to do it again. These miners are truly an inspiration, and I really hope to get back there soon to share more of their story.
A social thank you to my friend Iain (@Iainwith2eyes_) who faced two days of hard conditions and sulphur gas with me to capture this story and share it with you.
And a very special thank you to Yudi (@wahyudicuy_) for sharing this incredible story with us and taking us around the volcano. I plan to head back to Ijen Volcano to share more of the story and with your help try to bring more awareness to the situation, and hopefully get the miners masks and better care. If you would like to follow more of my adventures or ask questions about these miners please feel free to follow my instagram @michaelmakesfilms and dm me any questions.Thank you for watching, and please share this video to help me bring more awareness for these miners.

Respect for these guys that work for his family
You need to make more videos ur amazing. We need to help these workers
Franco Schena thank you! I need to share more of their story!
Thank u
Workers is a euphemism for I'm risking my health & life so I can eat and help my family eat too.It's not a choice.Its survival.As I pontificate from my 🇨🇦 apt on a smartphone.
Belly full, Healthy, Perspective✌️🏋️🇨🇦
@@AffinityAdventure $12 not $8
Thanks Micheal to share this for us. I've been there before about 4 or 5 months ago. I was crying coz the sulfur blocks my eyes, and also I can't breath. I was thinking that day is the last day for me. After all I just imagine how the local people (para prnambang) can survive everyday without attributes to make their self save.
I hope the better things will come to make their life better.
The world needs to see this. We all need to stop complaining about out little problems and need to feel grateful for our luck!
And what about after that?
@@closetglobe.IRGUN.NW0 After that you live ur life gratefully and if you come across a very bad situation where you think you got it bad, think about this dude’s life and think what all he goes through just to earn a couple of bucks!
Definitely agree!
Im trying to go back to spread the word more and do more to help.
There's also worse conditions more inland too that I want to show
Wow! That really does look like such difficult work. Thanks for sharing their story and getting the word out!
Thanks for your kind words! I'm really trying to help them! We have a go fund me started to try and raise money for mask filters, clean water on the volcano for them and food. If you know anyone who would like to see this video, please share it with them, we are trying to get the word out to as many people as we can :)
Awesome short documentry about the very harsh working conditions of miners. All to provide the rest of the world with cosmetics etc.
Next time you feel like your life sucks remind yourself there are people out there who have lives like these 💔 be grateful man
well said and absolutely. It is heartbreaking
Amazing video! Great job storytelling for such a worthwhile cause. Well done! Hopefully, you’re video will open eyes and garner support and help for these hardworking miners. Thanks for caring and sharing!
Cathy Bruce-Hayter thanks very much! I can’t wait to make more
Meant your video not you’re! Lol
Salute to these guys.
From Pakistan 🇵🇰
hamad khalil thank you. I’m happy Pakistan can learn these peoples story too
That’s Amazing video editing!
I honestly feel bad for them I feel myself to be guilty why they have bad life and I have good life :((
Anki Man thank you and yes I feel very bad too. I want to do more for them
Thank you for asking what the sulfur is used for. Great video in style and content.
Michael Heindel thank you! Yes their sacrifice is incredible for skin care products, etc
You're making awesome content bro
Love from India 🇮🇳
Suyash Sarnot thank you very much 🙏😊
Hello ,I'm from sempol,ijen village...

Thank you 🙏
Amazing video Mike. Keep making more, your channel will surely grow.
Salute to these Heroes. Dangerous profession
very dangerous indeed.
im trying to go back so I can share more of their stories and help more
He's one Sulphur transporting! son of a Beautiful Mother!.
Amazing little documentary! I feel your style even better than Drew's. Also, what's your favorite travel destination?
Thank you. We have different styles, but this was just a really good story. :)
Tesla owners love this and all EV owners.
“In 2017, 41 U.S. workers died on the job after a single episode of inhaling chemicals and chemical products.” Some of the worst offenders included carbon monoxide, hydrogen sulfide, coal, natural gas, petroleum products, and methane gas. “Inhaling carbon monoxide led to the most fatalities” from 2011 to 2016.
But inhalation is not the only way someone can be exposed to and made sick by chemical exposure. Some estimates suggest “more than 13 million workers in the United States are potentially exposed to chemicals that can be absorbed through the skin.” Dermal exposure to hazardous substances can lead to skin diseases and systemic toxicity.
hi michael, the video is very good, greetings from east java Bondowoso
Mn Firdaus Firdaus thank you very much
People who takes drugs because run from their problem life should come to Ijen and see the worker mining.
Good work on bringing this to the attention of others.
If you see this video ... Remember that you have to be grateful 👍
most definitely 🙏
Good job bro best of luck from india
Thank you very much!
Man’s gotta do what man’s gotta do.
This is crazy good. I'm amazed at how you get people in video. :)
Thank you 🙏 I try
Wow i cannot believe im heading 30 and never knew this was a job in that country. Its awful how they do this work
There are so many dangerous jobs like this around the world. Its amazing what you come across the more you travel 🤯
It's Ijen mount, Banyuwangi Regency
They are providing for their family while slowly taking their life away
i know its heartbreaking
Wow great video please make more video
Educator Sharmin thank you! I will make many more :)
JAVA, INDONESIA 🇮🇩🙏❤
🥺😢😣 i don't have words.
The real kicker is that it's a completely pointless job, google pics for "Alberta sulfur stockpile" you'll see what I mean. Sulfur is plentiful and cheap, an undesired byproduct of oil production, if these guys stop mining sulfur, absolutely nobody will run short of the stuff.
They're super human
Yeah! Their strength is incredible!
Can’t shouldn’t exist in anyones vocabulary
exactly
How do we help these guys get masks at least??? Anyone got a name of who’s doing work there???
The biggest thing is coming up with a filter program. Often tourists give them masks but they cant do anything once the filter runs out.
Im in contact w a local to try and make this happen. Im just trying to find a time I can get back to indonesia. Covid through everything off unfortunately
What specific PPE will make a significant difference for the miners?
in terms of PPE its mask filters. Lots of people donate masks when they are here, but the miners cant keep up with buying new filters.
My 🇨🇦💚 bleeds for these miners
I know, so heart breaking.
Great video!
well at least there is no obesity issues. therefore no diabetes
Amén . Great video report . Great quality
thank you very much! Im actively trying to go back and do more!
Bro, I just found yo yt. Why do you not have more subs
Them dude in the volcano like yeh whatever. More tourists
True, but also they get money from tourists too, so that helps
@@AffinityAdventure i thought went without saying
Do we know what the best equipment is.... like might help on the support if someone sorta found out what would be the best of the best to help them with the least resources - and sorting out they get the right thing that they will actually wanna use.
God bless and speed. Love from Pakistan 🇵🇰
Thank you! I cant wait to help them next time I go back! 🙏
I think that women should take care and love men more than men do. Men risky their life just for women and their children.
I work a whole week 12 hours daily and don't get 8$ i think i get about 5$ like worth of 4 kilograms of tomatoes here 😀
where do you live? and what do you do for work?
@@AffinityAdventure
I live in Syria, i work in a supermarket that sells foods toys books and school supplies like pens and things, this's what i am working now but i worked at multiple places before searching for better salary like cars cleaning, painting houses, car parts trading (like its windows or the doors of it), restaurant bartender and a lot of jobs
Good job bro
this is just terrible, no one deserves to work in those conditions
You must love Jehovah your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength. You must love your neighbor as yourself. Jesus the anointed is Lord! Repent and be baptized and believe the Gospel.

How can I help!!!
Hi Randy, Thank you for your interest. We are currently working on a mask filter program and a clean water program. If youd like to be part of the effort here is a fund to help gf.me/u/y3bb2p
also sharing this video to promote awareness for them helps too! Thank you!
ന്യൂസ് ഹണ്ടിൽ കണ്ട് ഇവിടെ വന്ന ആരെങ്കിലുമുണ്ടോ?
Much better than NAS DAILY bs
Government fault.
so many problems could be solved w more intervention
Why cant they use wheel barrows?
@@Joel-sr8oc there are paths to ease transportation....
Geez. Why not show them how to set up ropes and stuff to at least make it easier to climb, if not some kind of rope/pulley system to actually cart it rather than carry it.
I hate capitalism. What a wretched, inhumane system

That Jordan Peterson's video brought me here... who else?
Oh really? wow thats kind of cool. Not sure why other than making for stronger men? haha
i love it
great
Who is their employer?
Michael Tyers They get paid by the refinery at the base of the mine after they weigh the sulphur
Does the refinery own the mining rights?
Michael Tyers I think it’s all connected and run by the local government. It’s called Ijen Volcano if you want to look more into it 😊
@@michaeltyers7336 in a documentary it said the company profits 7 times of what the miners get so when the miners make 1 dollar the company makes 7 that is cruel life is so unfair
nice
Thank you! They are brave
why do they not wear masks :(
Sorry I see now.
they cant afford them :(
Wtf
A1
🙏
You couldnt give them a cheap gas mask? You exploit these people for personal gain, just watching them suffer without helping, you’re horrible
That awkward moment when you dont research anything you say and just try to sound big and are so wrong... While there we actually donated masks and water, and since the miners are unable to afford filters for the masks we've started a mask filter program and so far have raised $7000 for them.
You're definitely not doing anything to help them, in fact I doubt you even knew these guys existed prior to this video. You just enjoy going around doing some armchair virtue signaling in your comfy a/c environment while the "exploiter" is actually bringing awareness and helping. You sound pathetically ignorant.
damn
