If I were rich, I would buy each of these workers a safety gas mask. How ironic this place became a tourist attraction, all the tourists get to wear the safety mask and yet all these workers are photograph objects with no safety mask :'(

Tourism has brought the miners much more money than they had before

Just went there couple of days ago. It's an amazing place and the miners are incredible people. They sacrifice their health and risk their lives for the sake of a few dollars per load. They did not wince and worked so intimately with the noxious gas without any protection at all, carrying at least 40kg on their shoulders up a treacherous and steep trek, few times a day. My guide who was a former miner showed me the deep scars on his shoulders from carrying such loads over a decade. Utmost respect to these lovely people.

I wanted to watch some footage of sulfur miners, but just about the whole thing is footage of a camera crew. They didn't need to go all the way to Indonesia just to spend 40 minutes filming each other.

Exactly what i was thinking

Hard work for so little money! We went also down to the blue lava... but without gass masks. We hadn't a clou that it would be that breathtaking, what an experience and awesome place!

Dang those are some really antique bulky junky TV cameras that were silly expensive and tricky to use.

''To earn a good living''? They don't look like they live well but - oh well - someone has to do it... while the leaders earn the benefits. The Sumerians said humans were created for mining because it was too tiresome for the ''gods''. Now I see why.

Even if you wet 3 up to 5 layers of clothes to cover up your nose, The gas can still _greet_ your nose, It comes in and make us feel _amazed_ Hhhhhhh ...

Why don't u guys give your mask to the miner when finished shooting .

I don't understand why they didn't put their priceless camera into the plastic bag instead of bringing the second one to damage both. Also I hope (however it wasn't mentioned in the film) that they've gave their beautiful masks to those man that they felt so sorry for.

Sulfur mining should be banned outright. The companies buying the sulfur must be held accountable for workers health related illnesses caused by direct exposure to the sulfur.

Luar biasa.....

The Ijen Crater, East Java Province, INDONESIA!!

1:04 it seen that narrator never been to the internet.

What did I just watch? I went there couple of weeks ago and saw how these people work. How they climb the volcano with their carts, walk down the crater, mine, load, climb up, and go all the way down with sulfur and lazy tourists on their carts. The process is horrible and amazing at the same time. And I wanted to show a video to my family, and I found one by BBC - about how camera was broken and fixed and broken again and fixed again and then broken and a different camera used. And the miners are somewhere in the background. Who cares about some camera issues? What is the value of this video?

As a tour guide i can suggest you not to visit this place for it's blue fire. You can still enjoy the beauty of it's blue turquoise lake from above without disturbing any worker. Moreover, it is dangerous to go down the crater. Even if you are well prepared with your mask.

How’d u video the camera going bad?

I am in Indonesia i will give masks to them and buy food for families

Please correct the title, not kawan, but kawah. Kawan means friend, while kawah means caldera. Ijen in Javanese means single or alone. It literary means it will devastate entire area, alone or single handed. Those Indonesian are praying to Allah, while complaining! They have no choice they have to earn something to keep their family alive. Sam CCFM2000, an Indonesian NGO.

They're being paid $5 per load or two baskets worth.

So... I’ve been watching many videos on the *Blue Flames* that come from the burning sulfur in that volcano... and I didn’t see any clips of the flames in this video. Maybe they went there on a day that the flames didn’t flare up, and so changed the focus of the video? Just seems strange, every other YT video I can find on this volcano is specifically about it being one of the few places on earth that has natural blue flames, and yet this fact is seemingly absent from this BBC doc.

I went to Kawah Ijen in 1993 when no body had heard of it let alone knew where it was. It was a hard hike up through pristine jungle. I got caught a couple of times in the crater by sulphur clouds and it stung my lungs. It was impossible to breath. I couldn't imagine working there every day digging out sulphur. The small piece I got was enough for me. The crew should have at least left their respirators to these local men whose health was clearly poor and even if they didn't they should have arranged for some to be sent to them after with lots of filter changes. To not have done would have been to profit from others misery and could be interpreted as exploiting their subjects to make good television. Clearly the BBC crew and production company are all well paid. It was the least they could have done. It might just have meant these men lived a little longer than the short lives they were likely to have as a result of being exposed to poisonous gases on a daily basis. Shame on the BBC if they didn't provide them with proper gas masks.

I guess the difference is when the “primitives” die at age 55 while the “civilized” live to he 80-90. Sounds more like a warped view of being a macho man, huffing literal poison so you don’t look “weak”. Seems like something a weak man would do. “Watch me choke on sulfur dioxide so you don’t think I’m weak.” I think, if these workers were my dad or son or husband or whatever, it would be a whole lot cooler if they worried less about looking weak, and remainded alive for more years of their life instead. Being accustomed to toxic gas isn’t strength, it’s stupidity. Or at best, desperation.

Those mask filters don't last forever. Unless they're going to ship them new filters every month then it probably won't make much difference. Although I guess it could keep that stuff out their face.

time to think stop using tape

"Give them your masks?" Do any of you have any idea how expensive that would be? First off, the masks cost about $1100 USD each. Second, the filter capsules have to be changed every 4 hours, and they cost about $65 - EACH (there are two of them). So you give them the mask, and four hours later, what then? It would cost them a week's work to earn one filter. Quit your virtue signalling and be real.

Right, pay is only about $10 for a 12 hour day doing this which consists of making 2 trips. They consider it a good opportunity yet it's a death sentence of pain. I didn't use a mask going there in 2009. I wonder if it's just plain old classic slavery....

Make up your mind, hzzn... I knew there was something rotten at the bottom of this.

Did those BBC crews give those workers gas masks? It is very unfair to film them and not donating them anything.

Dudes.....just put the camera into a plastic bag. 😁

I never subscribed to this Channel nor Do I know anything about this.

Please tell me they at least gave the gas masks to some of the workers after they were done filming? Fucked up Smh

the crew has respect for the miners?? how about the crew give the miners some fucking safety equipment jfc yall just sat there while they were literally choking

The interesting thing is that at least one camera was working at the time the "official" one stopped. As for the mining operation, I've seen this before and was horrified at the miner's exposure to the gases. The pay is no match for the perils and shortened lives they face. Talk about exploitation.....

Please, see Dr Stone to learn how to do a gas mask :'v
