Props to these people and their work. I hope the product isn’t being under cut on price. Though you would think less clothes would be better than having fabric soaked in salt. Curious what this salt taste profile is like.

    It is truly humbling to see how much back-breaking and dangerous work goes into bringing us something we use every single day and absolutely take for granted, especially in the western world.
    To us, salt comes from jars we buy at the grocery. We buy pink salt as a novelty. We rarely stop even for a moment to think of what it took to bring it to us.
    Around the world, we are all really connected in every way to one another.

      It's like.. does those Japanese got the appreciation about how smart they're? Yeah some appreciate them, but just few. And it's normal. Don't make it as a serious thing
      Edit: Dark skinned Africans that live on desert & savanna region are like that. They have tall and strong body. Especially the people from that region in this video.
      And for dark skinned African that live in the tropical region usually have smaller body.
      And.. uhh.. im sorry if i talking about dark thing, but.. I need to..
      And that's why back in the past, Africans used as the slave of many nations. Even nations in Africa continent.

    This was so interesting. I clicked thinking I'd watch a minute or two but was totally captivated by the full
    Clip. I live in Utah, and I grew up in a small town near the Great Salt Lake. It stinks, and I'd home to thing little brine shrimp. We also have Salt Flats often featured in movies about teaching out sci fi. If you saw the movie, Independence Day, the scene where Will Smith drags the dead alien back to his military base was filmed out on the salt flats.
    I lived on a dead end street. If you drive down to where the road became dirt, then turned left, there was a salt Marsh that was a bird sanctuary, and where the biggest mosquitos you've ever seen are bred. We booked they flew with a knife, a girl and a napkin tired under their chin. As kids, the place was spooky. Quiet, barren, no trees for shade and if you wandered off the path, a puncture in your bike tire was the least that might go wrong.

The salt harvesters going into the lake had some of the worst skin I had ever seem (I was a dermatology nurse practitioner for 14 years). The harvesters appeared malnourished, yet were able to work so hard. So when watching this video I was very happy to see well nourished, well dressed harvesters with healthy skin who appear to be happy, knowledgeable and confident.

    what's crazy is that the harvester isn't even just a worker, but also hella knowledgeable about the job he is working such as how things are like this and why it is made this way, what to use and what not to use, why the color is this way, what causes such color, why the salt doesn't dissolve due to this or whatever the factors is.
