16 Dangerous Jobs Around The World | Business Insider Marathon

[janeday]

Interesting to see how inventive people are to make a living for their families, it is sad to see such hardship but people are brave & deserve respect

[meeka_lauren]

I find it so funny they thoroughly inspect the hot air balloon fabric, using a light to look over each and every inch of it, then in the next scene the head seamstress stomps on it while grabbing pieces to sew together.

[scottykonovalov]

The men who do these jobs have bigger balls than I ever will. ... mad respect

[hyperspaceelf]

These series are the height of comfort entertainment.

[edyann]

Reminds me of when I complain that I have to run my two small health food stores and it can be so hard but at least I have that. Especially in my country..

[kaptainkaos]

I wish I could get in touch with some of the people in this video. I’m so blessed with what I have and would love to gift to some of them, to make their life a little easier.

[wybuchowyukomendant]

You know when someone's a factory boss in India because they always wear a bluetooth set in the ear

[GreenTeaGal]

wow, yea you weren't kidding about the danger! masks/respirators, rubber boots and gloves would go such a long way for many of these jobs. when the video switched from india to america for a second, the difference in gear and safety precautions were like night & day.

[LadyMngwa]

That petrified wood mining is absolutely insane. They just keep digging into the UNSUPPORTED mine until they either find something or it landslides. No wood shafts, no anything just a freaking hole in the ground.

[James-wkmj]

They all know the risks of their work yet be damned if they are not barefoot

[MyMelinaaa]

It's crazy to think we spend tons of money on gym memberships and plastic surgeries and health foods and vitamins and blah blah and these people who work hard everyday are in amazing shape!! It's a little embarrassing America NGL lol

[AntiCommentUnit]

I respect and bless all worldwide fathers, puring their life risking hard work every day.

[zufalllx]

Largest horde of petrified wood on earth that will get you a felony for looking at too hard while in Indonesia they are turning it into ash trays. Who's more messed up, the country that'll imprison you over a rock, or the one making them into doodads?

[YochevedDesigns]

So, it costs about 15 to 20 dollars to produce a vial of antivenin, yet in the US it costs the patient around $1, 000 a vial, and they need 10 to 20 vials for full treatment. Treatment for the average snake bit totals around a quarter of a MILLION dollars or more. Something is seriously wrong with that math.

[bobmiller]

as someone who has used shellac for years its so interesting finding out how its made ty

[janleslie]

I'd like to know how someone looked at those bugs and thought let me climb that tree, get those infected limbs and figured out all the steps to make something useful out of it? ...lol

[jadediablo]

Breaks my heart and makes me cry how these families work long hours for very little money! There has to be a way where people can help??? Like you should have like some kind of set up for these families to get some help from us???? I m so blessed to work hard and live life with ease! Please start something so we can donate funds, dry goods, clothes, shoes! for these families!

[bobmiller]

cant believe its the 2024 and kids family's are rooting through trash to earn enough to eat, certainly put my predicament into perspective, im living like a king compared to those poor buggers, i would prey for them but im a atheist, what a world we live in, some have so much way to much while others barely manage to scrape by, im glad ive seen this, this will change me from this moment until the day i die, love and contentment my brothers and sisters from liverpool UK xxx

[Unhomiee]

First, we got 1 hour long reuploaded content. Now the norm seems to be 3 hours. In a couple years, they'll probably do a 24-hour video because BI seems to like churning out old content instead of producing new videos, it seems..
