So those driving the cart with blades have cut of several workers hands and feet. Even killed them by driving into and crushing their heads. I who also are surrounded by heavy machinery that could kill me . have to write a little lol here
the problem with any economy is the rich have to cause artificial need for this dollar to make it worth what it is so they buy up mines fund them for less than living wage and keep the people working for less so their more is worth more these guys make millions each year they can afford $5/hr

I do the exact same thing with firewood. I don't think I'm as good as these guys doing it all day every day, though. Having to do it for $6/day is what really caught my attention. Hats off to these guys. Hard workers.
They asre for running other appliances in their huts . Earlier they need to bring wood along . now they can charge their phones, etc with the solar panels
My hat goes off to these men ..... Their work ethic is tough .... and those boys loading the truck ...... wow ....Legends Sending 🖤 from Wollongong Australia
Just so unbelievable the wages these workers get paid for all their work. Companies have more than enough abilities to pay them an actual livable wage.
Until you really think about it. Its all donkey labor, zero effort to improve themselves. I bet there is not even a school. And I bet there is a local holy building that keeps them ignorant so they can't change the power structure. Education is the only escape from poverty.

Limestone, a $70 Billion+ a year industry ....................but these MEN are paid $6.00 a day with potential $3 and tea stipends for their efforts? WTF
Most of the limestone industry is not in egypt. A single guy with an excavator is mining more limestone per day in other parts of the work than an entire work crew as shown here.
The way the salt mines are run reminds me of the old 19th century railroad robber-barons who would house and feed their workers at an insanely inflated price to keep them under the yoke of debt. Six families would live in a house meant for one which had one cold water tap and a single toilet in the basement. It was degrading and humiliating to work for them, just like these poor salt miners. Unable to change their fate. I now have a new understanding of the phrase: "back to the salt mines!" as a quip when feeling tired and/or overworked. I don't think that I'll be using that phrase anymore...
As a supervisor the most challenging part of the job was to enforce use of safety equipment. Workers would take off equipment every time I turned my back.
I was that worker. Its so nasty being covered in safety equipment in a hot ass warehouse. Dripping sweat everywhere. Make sure to provide cleaning wipes...
I am also that worker lol. Safety is a racket. As you can see in this documentary, nobody ACTUALLY cares about the safety of workers, except the workers themselves. People see ways to create more bureaucracy, enforce high fines, and make tons of money (so they don’t have to work so hard)
At 43:13 the line “we dare to die because we’re afraid of hunger” hit me like a truck full of boulders. I’ll never not be grateful that I’m privileged enough to live outside of poverty. Right now I’m too young to work, but once I do, I hope that I can donate to causes to get people in these jobs better working conditions.
Did you know that China started constructing a whopping 70 gigawatts (GW) of new coal power capacity in 2023 alone? That’s almost 20 times more than the rest of the world combined! To put this into perspective, it’s like adding the entire power capacity of the UK to their grid just from new coal plants. While the world is shifting towards renewable energy, China is still heavily investing in coal, raising serious environmental concerns. Comparison Analogy: To understand the scale of 70 GW, consider that the total installed electricity generation capacity of the UK is around 100 GW. This means China’s new coal projects in 2023 alone are nearly equivalent to the entire electricity generation capacity of the UK, highlighting the massive scale of China’s continued investment in coal power .
Sad thing is, this is what truckings started to look like in Canada/USA. Drivers making pennys. wages are being cut for the same job , and days of sitting unpaid in other provinces countries, well everything needed to live rent to food to gas to medicine is all going thru the roof

Sulfur can be synthesized anywhere and has a way higher purity than the illegal sulfur they are mining it’s obsolete unless sold for pennies. It is terrible that the only means of making money is by doing that.
What's really mind blowing to me, is the people (pipefitters/ ironworkers) who built the sulfur pipelines into the walls of the volcano. Those people probably didn't live long doing that job.

I think the Indonesian sulphur mining is more complicated case. The place is considered sacred by locals, that modern mining companies are not allowed to mine there. Thus, only locals can manually mine.
@@stanfordleonard338 nope, there's no regulations in the Banyuwangi regency to regulate the sulphur mining.... It's an complicated condition for the local and government... So It just "let it go"
These are the atrocities society commits upon itself. The efforts wasted on outcompeting one another rather than working together to share the workload are astronomically ridiculous and not to mention EXPENSIVE in every conceivable way..... smh
@@georgea7336 I worked with dangerous materials and methods for years and passed the cost of safety on to my clients, then while working on a farm I found it impossible to recover that cost. The difference was that farms are primary producers and like the humans in this video I now worked for very little because there was very little to go around. Society can do something about this by collecting money to ensure their safety, provide protection directly. We now have the network, I'm thinking something like a Gofundme. I also found that information on safety was lacking everywhere I've worked.

Why don’t they use water on the saw blade for the limestone? I worked in the flagstone business and we cut cubes of stone and used saws with water too cool the blade and gets rid of most of not lol the dust? Does it ruin the limestone? Or are they just too poor?
Water is a rare commodity in the Sahara desert so I’m guessing that’s why. They’d have to transport water which needs more workers and costs more money.
Most of the stuff shown here is not for the developed world. A lot of it is not worth exportin halfway across the globe, or actually cheapdr to mine in place. For example the coal in india, while the workers only get a tiny amount of money compared to workers in the us, the productivity due to automation is so much higher that the coal is cheaper per ton than the indian coal.
This Situation Has Great Importance In Our Lives! Sadly The Narrator Voice Is Not Accorde To The Documentary... She Must Use Her Voice For Other Simplicities In The Life!
The working conditions are very bad. But it also feels like they also can’t afford to improve the process which is really bad. But does this mean with the now reduction of oil and gas especially the sulfur will have to be mined again like this?
And a lot of us in the western developed world think we've got it ruff. This is truly heart breaking to see what some people in other countries have to go through just to be able to live from one day to the next their lives will never get any better only worse health wise and financial it is so sad to see that is going on in our modern world and that there is no help from the governments to save these people from certain death at a young age.

The situation of these miners is grim and could easily be improved with different incentives in the markets. That being said, the reporter and the portrayal of these conditions is obviously oblivious to hard labor and see the world through rose lenses. It sounds privileged and unaware of the day to day for many in labor jobs. Work is hard and you better be hardcore to build a society.
"...government subsidized solar panels to power the electric pumps..." Next picture shows them cranking up a diesel engine. Green energy subsides at work. LOL
They have to earn a living and they have been doing so for thousands of years. HOWEVER the real story of mining is very very different. Large industrial scale western mining is NOT dangerous. It far less dangerous than for example construction where death and injury is surprisingly common. A single injury gets reported and investigated no matter how minor. A death is a very grave issue and entire mining operations are closed by the companies during investigation. Only a small portion of teh world's minerals are derived from artisanal miners and jobs with western mining companies in developing countries are highly sought after as they pay more, the team members are all treated with respect and health and safety are paramount. In addition all western companies participate in community programs often in the same communities where the team members live, creating pride in their business.
Exploiting poor people should be considered a crime & companies profits seized. The $$ should be distributed along those who actually produce it, not those who do nothing yet are morbidly wealthy.
This can only be improve if we abolish paper money financial system where one side can dictate and pay less with their difference in money exchange. If money were to backed by gold, these hardworking nations would be very rich and can upgrade their working conditions and safety.
most of the world puts up with risks like this. There's no OSHA or similar organizations in a lot of asian, african and south american countries. I'm sure they have similar organizations on paper, but enforcement is probably spotty if at all.
Vast majority of mined minerals are done with heavy equipment. These are people just trying to survive but they cannot compete with actual commercial operations. That's why they are paid so little.
Not a student of history I see. The US tried that, wages increased for a while, but unions overreached. They made the US worker the most expensive workers in the world. So the businesses all left to other countries. Now unions are nearly extinct because no one can afford them and almost all manufacturing is gone.
@@chesthoIe Maybe you haven't noticed but even without unions the democrats are still in charge. The minimum wage is so ridiculously high the US isn't even close to being competitive. I guess they didn't teach economics in your school.

I wonder if someone has set up a charity where we can give some of these hard workers better equipments and fight for their rights to a safer environment.
All of the people covered in this video are trapped in their own kind of hell. Stuck doing hazardous, back breaking work day after day after day, and making themselves sick in the process. The sickening part is that's it's all because of the greed of others who take advantage of them. The one that breaks my heart the most is the girl mining coal. She may not live to see 30 if she doesn't get away from that mine.

In addition all western companies participate in community programs often in the same communities where the team members live, creating pride in their business.
дуже шкода цих трудолюбивих людей
And my son calls me mean and I don't love him when I say clean up your mess lol
Why do I feel like cobra commander is the owner there in the limestone mines lol
Exploiting poor people should be considered a crime & companies profits seized. The $$ should be distributed along those who actually produce it, not those who do nothing yet are morbidly wealthy.
"Pumps run off solar panels" but clearly shows they're running on diesel... 21:05
Lol it get up to 118 degrees Fahrenheit,. It's been 119 for the last 3 weeks in Phoenix AZ usa
Thats a cool way to store salt. Out of salt? Just use my lamp 💀
Sad But True! 💔
In USA some factory have days without accident board ?
Subtitles are way too quick to read.
This can only be improve if we abolish paper money financial system where one side can dictate and pay less with their difference in money exchange. If money were to backed by gold, these hardworking nations would be very rich and can upgrade their working conditions and safety.
54:32 That’sh shuper inthereshting commentary.
Really awful shtyle of commentary
most of the world puts up with risks like this. There's no OSHA or similar organizations in a lot of asian, african and south american countries. I'm sure they have similar organizations on paper, but enforcement is probably spotty if at all.
Vast majority of mined minerals are done with heavy equipment. These are people just trying to survive but they cannot compete with actual commercial operations. That's why they are paid so little.
Let's collectivize labor here in the US more, and then export that. Let's give Amazon and Uber and Doordash workers a union.
Not a student of history I see. The US tried that, wages increased for a while, but unions overreached. They made the US worker the most expensive workers in the world. So the businesses all left to other countries. Now unions are nearly extinct because no one can afford them and almost all manufacturing is gone.
@@RS-ls7mm So why didn't deregulation lead to a rush back to manufacturing in America?
@@chesthoIe Maybe you haven't noticed but even without unions the democrats are still in charge. The minimum wage is so ridiculously high the US isn't even close to being competitive. I guess they didn't teach economics in your school.
48:15 they work in two shifts. You know. For safety. Lol
i don't really know how good of those minerals are but this salt has a lot of sand in it!
Thanks for publishing this! Looking for help: My O K X wallet holds some Tether usdt, and I tpossess the recovery phrase. {clean party soccer advance audit clean evil finish tonight involve whip action}..How can I publishing this sending them to sending them?
Can't complaint about my life anymore.
They could start at the limestone mine much early pre-dawn like they do in Japanese bakeries, before the Sun exposure at full top dead center,, then take a break in the middle of the day during the brightest hottest time, retreating to shaded areas to cool off & rest, nap, eat lunch, sleep, then start up again during the sunset into dusk & twilight, with a split shift // to reduce solar burden heat stroke & sun burns //
So sad to see how these people are forced to risk their lives and work to exhaustion for a few dollars a day and we pay that for a bread.
Why are they wearing flip flops 😐
you could also make a machine that cuts both sides, has a cabin with airco and filter, and on tracks..
Narator in the last documentary about tin was terrible- too shy to speak loud. Otherwise great video, but the tin narator should improve...
Братка, спасибо тебе большое! Я здесь недавно окупился Х10 по твоей тактике) отдуши спс
I wonder if someone has set up a charity where we can give some of these hard workers better equipments and fight for their rights to a safer environment.
That company can get them UVA/UVB sunglasses 👓 🕶 😎
feel so sorry for the people you would not work in the West and risk your life like that
Can we just send them protective equipment? We should have a crowd-sourced project which gives these people safety equipment
Rinki is an angel
The industry hit 70 billion but yet still people are being paid$ 6.00 a day!!!!
👍👍👍🤗💋❤
That's why Canada should have a large coal industry
Real heroes 😮
Sea water or salt can heal wounds faster and help cure skin disease when use properly. Ironically, too much exposure to salt has the opposite effect
Для легких это очень полезно. Для дыхания. У кого кашель или бронхит.
All of the people covered in this video are trapped in their own kind of hell. Stuck doing hazardous, back breaking work day after day after day, and making themselves sick in the process. The sickening part is that's it's all because of the greed of others who take advantage of them. The one that breaks my heart the most is the girl mining coal. She may not live to see 30 if she doesn't get away from that mine.
