One of the most dangerous jobs on this planet: Shipbreaker. Many injuries and deaths, training happens on the job, almost no safety equipment except maybe a hardhat, no health care, no insurance. Those men risk their life every day for recycling of metals. That deserves great respect.
they are not stupid. they are the slaves of the unsustainable quality of life for a lot of us westerners, with fake jobs, unuseful lives and a fake way of thinking about happiness. But things are changing. Either we understand that, or we all perish under nuclear fallout, soon.
And these ships and all only last around 20 or so years before being scrapped, all the resources used in building them and then tearing them apart is insane
Breaking up of massive transport ships that supply the wealthy nations is done by workers from poor nations without regard for their safety and working conditions. Cheapskate company owners should provide basic safety gear for these hardworking men.
Hard and very dirty work. Old engine oil, leftover fuel, tons of grease under decks. The most valuable thing is the anchors made of a special metal alloy. Workers are at high risk of tetanus.
The propeller is the most valuable single piece. When you scrape a ship, they want the original drawing of the propeller to determine what metal iand exactly how heavy it is. The scrapper pays a premium on any propeller.
Yeah right ....remnants of fuel oil sump oil acid asbestos benzene lead...you name it its in there....lovely and nutritious for our already polluted oceans...don't be stupid. Lots of valuable recoverables on these ships and a lot of money to be made but it takes a lot of work to get to them.
Shame on the Bangladesh Government that allows these shipbreaking companies to employ it's citizens to work under these appallingly hazardous conditions.
Buenas tardes, a modo solo de sugerencia quería informar que: Si cargan combustible en la estación de servicio YPF que está en Av. Libertador esquina Quintana (San Fernando), y usan la aplicación, constanten antes de irse de la misma que no les hayan duplicado el pago, si lo hicieron reclamen en el momento, porque luego de ese instante dicen que el problema se soluciona desde YPF central y no pueden hacer nada y en efecto no lo hacen...dejo en claro que no propongo que dejen de cargar, ni que vayan a otra estación solo que verifiquen antes de salir del surtidor...
From what I've read, breakers like this, working on beaches are environmental disasters. As suggested by the lack of PPE they also don't worry about environmental contamination from the various oils, asbestos, lead paint etc. It is all dumped on the beach and drains into the ocean. Wouldn't want to be one of those workers. Hard, dangerous work for next to no pay.
They even haven’t safety shoes. Oil goes straight in the sea. We in the west should give these perplexed safety and health materials to give these poor people a human live. I m angry on these rich bullies
The people and the horrible bosses that run this business will not spend $1 for any kind of PRECAUTIONARY OR SAFETY TOOL OR METHOD that can minimize injuries or death. Even a $1 protective covering on a Chisel, so the work does not accidentally hit his hand, is not present here. But I admire and salute all the hard workers here.
Les mains, les pieds, ça reste dangereux, mais le port du casque est très important car la boîte crânienne c'est particulièrement fragile et difficile à soigner
@@vladimirstef4743 I knew a cop who called motorcycle helmets ”brain buckets” because of how often people were decapitated in motorcycle accidents. He was only in the force for 3 years back in the 80’s in Utah or Arizona (I forget) while completing his masters degree, but that was one thing that stuck with him. I hope it’s not as common now. 😢 As a species, humans are daredevils. Few animals knowingly put themselves into such risky situations on a regular basis!
Hilarious comment, because if it wasn’t for capitalism you wouldn’t be enjoying this fine video from a capitalist RU-vid company. Or you wouldn’t have been able to type your ignorant comment on your capitalist computer or Apple device that was delivered on that capitalist boat they are dismantling. So without a capitalist society where people are rewarded with good pay for innovation you’d rather be sitting in a cave sending smoke signals. Gotcha.
Los construyen con todo el equipo tecnológico. Medidas de seguridad pero cuando toca desarmarlo lo hacen con las manos pela sin herramienta .y mal pagado los trabajadores
