    Ship Breaking, one of the most hazardous 3rd world jobs



    Lots of youtube videos, just search ship breaking and Chittagong. No hard hats, no respirators, no welders goggles, no steel toed boots, and of course no insurance.

    This particular ship is going to Brownsville Tx, its probably a bit safer yard.
