Searching for Montenegro's Illegal Blast Fishermen
Ойын-сауық
At the Adriatic coast, Galeb Nikacevic discovers who, how and why is involved in blast fishing in Montenegro. When Alfred Nobel discovered dynamite in 1867, he probably did not even imagine that generations of fishermen in Montenegro would illegally fish with explosives, calling themselves Nobelties. Although blast fishing is illegal for its damage to the environment, but also harming people, this tradition is still alive. In the conflict between the class and preservation of environment, hidden is the story about this people who have made this phenomenon their way of life.

@@i1bike Corrupt politicians? How is letting a country dissolve peacefully instead of through violent conflict, a corrupt thing to do? I could understand if you had said something like "wussy politicians" or some other term regarding their lack of "spine" to keep the country together. The same insult one would've given to someone in Abe Lincoln's place (alternate "what if" history scenario) for letting the confederacy get independence from the USA through diplomacy instead of civil war. But I don't see the corruption.

Those aren't grenades though are they? Your subtitles are wrong. Just because the Serbian word is 'Granata' it doesn't mean the translation is 'grenade'. It's 'shell'. 'Grenade' is 'ručna bomba'. Schoolboy error. Btw, Markale was an inside job.
Well at least they had a blast 😂

True to fashion I was led to believe it was because someone not having the American dream risked it all to put rice in there belly for the night. NOPE! The guy Blew his Arm and leg off by Grinding into A WW2 Grenade to see what was inside. So there ya go.
Look an actual pirate ! 😳
Interesting fact: Saddam Hussein’s eldest son Uday Hussein liked to go blast fishing with dynamite. He would sometimes take people he didn’t like and then throw them in the lake before dynamiting them.
I know exactly were they were in montenegro
"He may have thrown it after we left": seems like they did it and decided they shouldn't have.

Should probably not scuba dive in a place where they commonly blast fish. Not really blaming the victim just some pretty prudent advice. Like saying don't park your car in a place where cars are commonly stolen or vandalized. Shouldn't have to be said.
That is the weirdest laugh I've heard.

All of us poor are really feeling the heel of the elite on the backs of our necks right now. The system has never been designed for the poor.
