The last bit about the TV interview really got me, he's risking his health maintaining the waste system that is crucial for everyone's well-being, and he (was) ashamed of it! I'm glad he accepted this interview, jobs like this deserve all the respect in the world!
As someone else who works in poo (sewage operator) and also a diver, I see no shame about this guy’s job. It’s badass. Very few people can dive, much fewer can function and work in zero visibility. And even fewer are willing to work around or in hazardous waste. With this job being so dangerous yet so important to the environment and public health, any stigma against it makes no sense at all.
Man without these types of people imagine the chaos in our ecosystem, the clogs the spills the environment the smells the disease the sickness the death yeah I give these guys a medal and support for there work, they make our lives much comfortable so thank you.
Really there weren’t many jobs till know sent virus made people stop working and government giving checks so I really say if ya looking for a job even if don’t it best to start know there A LOT HIRING so when government stops checks ya have a job
India has a caste to do same got thousands of years and they untouchables but they don't have such suits but bare naked body where they die usually on daily basis no one cares. Eyes go blind for them. Cessation from economics society education everything. But no one talks about it.
I actually had a teacher who told me they have been diving in the sewer as a job, that was many years ago. Must be gross and also kinda scary. I think even worse than the gross part would be the fear that your suit could suddenly malfunction/tear open during your dive and have you possibly drown in it, plus having no visibility especially in that environment must be terrible
@@igertlee8790 making jokes about how his kids must have it hard at school knowing their father's occupation sounds pretty disrespectful in my opinion.
Honestly that guy is at the peak of not being racist. He went through every type of poo. Asian, African, European, American and Oceanian. He dives into it without thinking of the owner.
Im glad the guy enjoys and likes what he does! That’s kind of mean (but I guess I get it?) that his own daughters are ashamed and literally start crying for him to not go on live TV so that their ‘friends’ don’t find out what he does.
Yeah and the word “poop” or anything regarding bowel movements is extremely hazardous to mention in front of kids because of their immaturity It makes sense his kids would be embarrassed, their friends would probably never let them hear the end of it
I'm a woman and I have to say I wouldn't do this job unless my life depends on it. Thanks to all the men out there working and grinding in the shadows and depths to.keep it all ticking over.

@@thinginground5179 it’s not really though. Sanitation is important and while this job is filthy, it’s absolutely important and necessary. We have nothing but admiration and respect for what these men do.
And yet we still have ungrateful women in the west saying that men are not useful for anything and that they need to be more feminine. I like to see those same women work with this man for at least a week to see how women really take things for granted when it comes to them refusing to work in a disgusting but extremely essential job and just letting the man do the dirty work.
honestly, what a nice and humble guy. He said “I really do enjoy my job, I’m pretty lucky.” He seems like a guy you would always want to hang out with.
i have so much respect for people like him. these people are doing more important jobs than some celebrities like the kardashians who make more money by just doing nothing but entertaining. and they’re the ones who society perceives as important, how backwards is this world please
I was offered a job as a wastewater treatment plant operator. I watched a ton of these videos to build up the confidence to accept the position. In the end I just couldn’t go through with it. The people that do these jobs are on a next level, and I salute them.
And many of them inherited their millions. Doesn't matter either way when they do nothing now and get special treatment. And to clarify, I don't think rich people deserve nothing, some worked hard but that still doesn't mean they should get special treatment when they already get to live in mansions, control the government, go on exotic vacations, pay their way out of legal issues, gift their kids luxury cars and throw them expensive parties and buy the designer clothes that were made in sweat shops by children and most likely the materials weren't gotten vis fair trade. They get to have private chefs and maids and nannies and no real responsibility for anything a d those are just the famous actors and singers who work hard on occasion but still don't go through actual shit at the risk of their health. That in itself is enough privilege, tax breaks are just unfair. Teachers and child care workers, elderly attendants, fire fighters and other people risking their lives like sanitation workers or morgue workers and biohazard waste cleaners are looked down on for their jobs bit without them we'd all be screwed. I'm not saying the rich are evil and bad people that deserve nothing but other people deserve it too and often more. I can do without a basketball/football player but I can't deal without plumbing and farmers.
@@isabellejimenez1881 Whats the point of having millions if you can't spend and work all the time? But in the world in General, I think a lot of millionairs get rich because of corruption and crime. Look at Russia, China, any African country or Mexiko with the cartels. Laundering Money do some banks like HSBC. And yeah, Dick Cheney is a criminal war monger, too. Look at Halliburton in Iraq for example.
My hats off to this amazing man! What a strong and honorable person. He is willing to do what the majority of the population would not be willing to do. Absolutely incredible. Sorry to hear that your daughters were embarrassed, but man. If only they knew how incredible you are for doing this. God bless you sir! You're so awesome!
I wish it was the same for people who do this in our country. They get no protection whatsoever for this, and approx. 1200 manual scavengers have died in last year alone despite the supreme court’s orders that have banned manual scavenging without proper gear. I hope vice covers it.
doesn't work like that. commercial divers get there air from the surface (surface supplied). the bottle is just for an emergency ( bad gas, snapped umbilical etc.) bailout to return safe to surface.
People are never great full enough, they are always complaining about how life could get better. This guys dives in poop every day, and he says that he is lucky to have a good job. We need more people like him. Positive people
He doesn't say he's lucky to have a good job, he says he's lucky to actually enjoy what he does and it pays good money, shit I would be one too if it paid me enough.
Except that's not being positive that's just an easy ideology you could stick to in order to make routines easier to take, also complaining about how your life could be better is in fact a negative mindset and last but not least the best mindset you could have is a positive one where it don't matter where you are you will always stray for the best, never stop and say "this is enough" always keep going forward because life can always be better, specially when your job is diving is poop.
You can never realize how life-risking this job is, and you can never put any amount of money to convince me doing something like this, because it's never the disgues neither the "shame" about it, it's simply your life.
A career counselor once told me he said "There's 2 ways to make a lot of money. One, is to do something that very few people can do. The other is to do something very few people are willing to do." I would definitely categorize this job under the latter.
In case anyone was curious, the fire in the background is a result of the treatment plant burning off excess methane from the sewage. It would be unsafe to release pure methane into the atmosphere, as it is very toxic and bad for the environment; the carbon dioxide produced from fire is a much better alternative. I've personally been to the Werribee Treatment Plant before, which is how I know of this.
Why? cause' they're rich?.... You need way more competent and prepared to be a CEO... Also CEO's generate wayyyy more money to wayy more people than poo swimmers do
