  • yes OIJJ30 and you can get good dive stories and videos on the net too. try the myscubastory site. type myscubastory into google and its the first one

  • Subtitles??

  • A great risk to support their families. One has to do what is necessary to work for each days meal. Times are tough for so many good people.

  • Comment removed

  • What you peole who are not brazilians do not grasp is that NOBODY but a brazilian who's lived here can remotely understand the situation here. It's easy to say the country is under developed when development itself is so relative, isn't it? If americans call being obese and stupid development, then I am glad to say Brazil is ten times more developed human-wise than some of the north americans we can see around. I am proud to be brazilian and I believe that Brazil is getting bettern and better.

  • I don't think it's like they don't understand the processes of tissue load, etc etc. They understand it in simple terms. They just simply rely on faith and luck and their love of diving and catching lobsters. Send 'em a bunch of dive watches and depth gauges. They would probably make some awesome [legit] divers.

  • I find it very difficult to have sympathy for those who knowingly perpetuate their own downfall. In the end death will claim them or they will destroy what little resource they had until they have nothing. Until some catalyst changes things greed will hold sway.

  • ignorant is only you

    ashole

  • if these people will have proper training and equiptment this will greatly if not eliminate diving accidents

  • wow, these ppl are in the dark age

  • Po, se vcs acham que é sensacionalista, vão lá mergulhar então!

  • wouldnt it make since to use certified equapement not dangerous...doh

  • Wouldn't it be nice to just have a bail out, dive timer and depth gauge....

  • se voce acha que aqui no brasil é tudo muito caro,isso se deve aofato de sua economia nada estruturada estar influenciada na economia mundial ao qual a metade é gerada pelo seu pais e a outra metade vem de recebemineto de divida e investimento de outros paises

    Se entao voce acha que aqui eh pobre,nao é por causa da corrupção politica em si mais tem grande influencia de seu pais como em outros paises tambem

  • N acho q eh tudo caro n,e acho tbm q o brasil n eh pobre,o nordeste e a parte mais mal desenvolvida do brasil,principalmente por causa do governo.O Brasil tem A maior reserva de agua do mundo q eh o guarini,e um pais muito belo porem pode acontecer de nos sermos motivo para a 3ra guerra mundial,por causa q um dia a agua vai fikar escassa no mundo intero e nos somos o unicos q temos uma rede de agua potavel sustentavel,como acontece com o petroleo no irak.

  • Mais uma forma de trabalho, e como todo trabalho tem seus riscos e recompensas. mas como é um documentário americano é, obviamente, sensacionalista.

  • Brasil melhor pais do mundo

  • EH impressionante como americano n consegue fla sem sotaque mtu feio sauhashuuhashuashuashasas

  • You even know how to speak in portuguese how u can sayu something like this????your video need to be deleted from youtube

  • ouvir nativo de inglês falando nomes em português é engraçado :P

  • @FudProductions vdd xD

  • the only thing paralised is the narrator's (or the script writer's) brain!

    The fisherman walks, swims and dives. The legs have limited movement skills, thats right, but they are not paralised,

    and another thing: Cadê o Ministério Público do Trabalho da região???

  • watch?v=Ndm7W2yKV_o

  • why don't you smell my d**k? killing inocents in a fake war is nice isn't??

    shut the fuck up mother foker dos caraio

  • OMG this is so dangerous,without specific equipment, after he dies not know why.

    BRazillllllllllll.............­.

  • pega na minha

  • Os caras vão a profundidades de 40 a 50m sem conhecimento, sem equipamento, enfim sem orientação alguma. A embolia gasosa nessas regiões é o que mais desabilita estes coitados... isso deveria ser profissionalizado ou supervisionado pelo governo local. Uma vergonha isso ainda existir no Brasil a ponto de virar um documentário. Ainda estamos longe de sermos um pais onde existe oportunidade igual para todos !

  • These people are ignorant, that is true. Brazil has a high level of illiteracy compared to developed country. Brazil continues to underinvest in education.

    But it is equally ignorant of us to expect them to act and behave as we do when it comes to reasoning. It is a cultural ignorance to call these people idiots. They simply never had the opportunities that are available to people in developed nations.

    Brazil still has a lot to learn and we have a lot to learn about Brazil.

  • I am Brazilian I agree with you!

    Our people here are very ignorant and climb into bed hoping that a political will resolve your problems ...

    It is unfortunate the situation here.

  • DERROTADO DETECTED!!!

  • ANTI-PATRIOTA DETECTED ¬¬

  • @amazonkid Don't you go thinking all brazillians are like that. just saying...

  • smart and sharp!

  • says the "smart" american.................

    your ppl still dont know who invented the phone....

    so..... i invite you to STFU.

  • @erro404 Now you on the other hand are just plane ignorant. Brazilians are much smarter and nicer than you are so please dont try to speak on their behalf! They are much better off without you.

  • you are the one whos alone in here, just look around...

    and this stupid video should be deleted...

    all we need its ppl to mind their own business...

  • we dont give a fuck to other peoples problems but you northamerican have a so boring life, you get used to interfere in somethings that are not of your bussiness( I mean always)

    I think you should shut the fuck up and take care of you little life

  • Chill the fuck out dude. What is wrong with you? This isnt about North Americans versus Brazilians. This is about these poor people suffering from lack of economic opportunities and information. It could be anywhere in the world. Every country has their issues. Talking about them is what brings awareness.

    Shouting at people under false patriotic notions is just useless. Your words dont represent Brazil, they represent YOU. Try behaving in a decent manner and maybe you will be a decent person

  • @amazonkid THANK YOU!!!

  • so if it´s a question try to grow up and realize that world is not perfect and you with you ideas dont change even mine, peploe like you dont do anything, but just keep on complaining, please I dont wanna fight you, but serious, I love my country and dont guve fuck about what you think, guess we learned something of you people hu?

    anyway I have more thing to do so dont fuck with my time!

  • Cara,

    Você esta gritando so com você mesmo. A vida não precisa ser assim. Acho que você entende que voce esta errado, porque voce esta repitindo o mesmo coisa que voce não gosta das outras pessoas. Em vez de ser um parte do problema, faz um parte da solução.

    Se não, no fim, você se-tornará o que voce odeia.

  • admito que usei o fator anõnimo da internet a meu favor mas não quero mais discutir e a questão apresentada no vídeo que em si é muito complicada, concordo que devemos tentar fazer parte da solução, vamos começar parando essa discução, feito?

  • Ok. Combinado. E te agradeço para a conversa e eu tentarei tambem de fazer parte da solução. Paz.

  • @guilhermewolfman cara nao liga nao esses gringos filhos da puta quepensao q sao os maiores...foda -se eles

    Se nem eles se ajudam nao vais er a gente q vai ajudar eles

  • @amazonkid While I agree with you at an empathic level, ignorance is not a good excuse to abandon reason. In fact, rationality is much more important to the ignorant.

    However, this specific film seem to address the issue of financial desperation rather than ignorance. They're not stupid, they're just looking for quick cash to get a better living.

  • @hornetpalooza Stupidity and Ignorance are two very different things. "Stupidity" is to make a mistake when one knows better. Ignorance is having lack of information. Just because somebody is ignorant does not mean they are stupid, it just means they were never taught about a specific subject. Stupidity is an insult, Ignorant is a respectful and commonly used method of describing capability. To say these people are Ignorant regarding safety to do with diving is a true statement not an insult.

  • @NerdPorn It's obvious from my post that I know what stupid and ignorant means, I have no idea what prompted you to comment. Also, I'd like to add that what's truly stupid and not varies with the situation. Desperation degrades the rational dimension of thinking drastically.

  • @hornetpalooza I do have to apologize to you as I have miss read your post. I think I will just instate a "do not post when over exhausted" policy for myself :-) I don't quite understand as to how I made the mistake last night because your post does quite clearly show your understanding of the two words... Again, My apologies. I thought that you considered the two words to mean the same thing and I just wanted to be sure that you understood the difference. It is quite clear that you understand.

  • @NerdPorn Let's just appreciate the fact that we don't have to dive anywhere for our paycheck. :)

  • @amazonkid so all the dive masters and instructors in the world and not one wants to go down there and educate these people on diving???damn shame. i'm gonna learn to dive and instruct diving and teach those people

  • In Portuguese "ignorant" is offensive. I know you didn't mean to be so.

    But the true of the matter is that we, Brazilians, don't want changes, we don't know how to vote. Brazil will elect Dilma and postponed the Education Revolution that this country needs.

    I believe that we have a big change with Marina Silva, but people are conformed, we think we have to kowtow to Lula. He did his job well but it was his obligation as a president and indeed a lot of things were left to be made.

  • @amazonkid We still need a shock of morality.

  • @amazonkid Obrigada!

    

  • Veja como ele expressa uma cara, apesar de tudo, de satisfeito e feliz com a vida... que puta lição.

  • who said this is a bad video?? it just shows the reality of people who needs to work!

  • Comment removed

  • I'm graduated in oceanography, and also brazilian. As so, I can tell for sure that this actually happens more often than we may think! This video is a wake-up call! It does not matter how many children the guy have! If his money is short.. If they only have had propper lessons and certificate, this all could be easily avoided! And they also need to learn about fishery statistics! The reason why lobsters are no longer found near shore is because of overfishing!

  • hehehehe

  • ignorant fucker,learn something about our country first before saying anything,asshole

    ps:im brazillian.

  • Here in Brazil we work hard to live, not need to explore the poor to enrich us. We have very poor places yes, and that parents who do not have?. We have beautiful cities in all regions.

  • so the media shows the poorest parts of Brazil but not know because what they get out of it

  • there are many poor places, but, there are many rich places too, no one shows the rich places from here =/

  • The poor places outnumber the rich ones by 10:1

  • I presume u live in alaska to say that asshole

  • No, I live in Brazil, I know what the fuck I am talking about.

  • there are many poor places in Brazil...especially in the North and in the Northeast

  • RGRERTERER

  • "" see videos of magic on my channel I will do away with the letter that you think through the screen and very good check """""

  • Most poor place? Pobre deve ser a tua escola que não ensinam geografia.

  • As I said, kids are expensive for a rich family. When you born poor, like those guys in the video, you won't give to your child books, neither notebooks, you won't spend money on clothing, medication (believe me, a lot of kids there die of diharrea). You can't say the parents are cruel to their children, they just don't have the minimum education necessary to care about those banal things.

    The work they do don't require a lot of knowledge. A kid can do it. And thats what they do.

  • this is the most poor place in brazil..i'm brazilian and this is "nordeste".Its really beatiful..

  • @dedygaloucura Nordeste = Northeast

  • oh yeah, children equal money. For a rich guy, the more kids he has, the more money he will spend. For a poor man, the more kids he has, the more money he can get when the kid turns 5 or older.

  • Not exactly, more kids = more food, clothes, medication should they get sick and their parents care about, books and notebooks should they get to a school = more cost, less income. In other words, they will be spending more than earning

  • It is interesting to see how many similarities most of the people commenting here have with those divers. The same way they don't know what a dive table is, you guys don't know they don't know it. Did you get how much they're payed for a kilo of lobsters? About $14 to share with the whole crew. Now, if they are doing that, its because thats the way they can earn the most money. Imagine how much will they get doing another kind of job, since they have no education and dont even know what it is.

  • They get R$ 120,00 kilo of lobster its something like 60,00 dollars but here,the eletronics are very very expensive,like,XBOX 360 here is R$1,300 U$650,00 some thing like this but poorest region of Brazil is nordeste beautiful but very poor.

  • @LKparodyes se voce acha que aqui no brasil é tudo muito caro,isso se deve aofato de sua economia nada estruturada estar influenciada na economia mundial ao qual a metade é gerada pelo seu pais e a outra metade vem de recebemineto de divida e investimento de outros paises

    Se entao voce acha que aqui eh pobre,nao é por causa da corrupção politica em si mais tem grande influencia de seu pais como em outros paises tambem

  • Comam frango, pra que comer lagosta? rsrsrs

  • É uma situação complicada. Os mergulhos são de alto risco, todo mês alguns morrem ou ficam aleijados. O governo não faz nada a respeito faz anos. Esses homens tem que dar de comer as suas famílias. Deveríam buscar otra atividade, mas muitas vezes não conseguem. Os EUA e Europa não deveríam comprar lagostas que custam a vida ou deixam aleijados muitos homens. Deveríam verificar a procedência das mesmas.

  • nós compramos computadores, tênis e mais um monte de coisas que são feitas que semi-escravos asiáticos. Não vejo muita diferença.

  • the last phrase explains it all.

  • Absolute idiots diving that way..

  • you dont ask nothing when you have nothing to eat. you'll probably do everything to get some money.

  • i thought spearfishing with air supply wasnt legal, but then again garden hose isnt exactly a practice out of textbook either

  • O que uma situacao financeira precaria leva o ser humano a fazer para poder ganhar o pao de cada dia e sustentar a familia!

  • "He was 40 METERS down when he felt a pain in his chest"

    Brazil has to get birth control to manage their population....sadly the Catholic church doesn't like that idea and most men feel that the more kids they have the more macho they are. And they hope that all their children will take care of them in old age.

    Now that they found so much oil off the coast of Brazil maybe that will help-or maybe not.

  • The problem of the people in Brazil is not on having manny children. Even the catholic dogmas have been contested. The most important thing about this situation is that brazilian people have dignity and responsability for raise their kids. Don't fell guilty for buying a lobster, but know it might come from a country with villages still in basic development, with parents who risk their lifes to put food on the table. I'm a brazilian techdiver, and I love my country, I love my people! stupid edmon

  • 7 children? why?

  • exactly. Why should we feel bad for buying a lobster ? If this guy had an education he would realize children equal money. I hate to sound like an Obama supporter or a Chinese government official but no one needs 7 children !!

  • very sad :(

  • Now that's what you call HELLDIVERS!!!!!

  • As far as the end of the text in the description: "Disabled who made a slight miscalculation"

    No, they didn't make a "Slight" miscalculation, if that were the case, they wouldn't have gotten bent.

    It takes a vast miscalculation.

    Their best bet would be to always have a 5 minute safety stop at 15 feet, and always ascend slowly.

    If they don't do these 2 things, they're a dumbass, and deserve what they get.

  • small miscalculations lead to bigger ones =/

  • Ever thought of the fact that they just didn't have the necessary education nor can they afford it?

    They "deserve" not what they get. They deserve free education on decompression!

  • Education in decomp is free.

  • no it's not. You need a course (costs money) or at least the internet (which needs a computer and computers cost money). And not even a book about it is free.

    But please go ahead and enlighten me with the source of free decomp education in case there is one i didn't think of.

  • sure. you're on one. it's called the internet. If you are actually willing to go into the fucking ocean without a clue of what you are doing you deserve to die. its the fucking ocean. why do you think we live on land? WE DONT BELONG THERE!!! As a student at a commercial dive academy and also as someone with at least an ounce of sense, I would never dive without knowing how long I can DEFINITELY survive, or at least own an air compressor not made from lawnmower parts. Thats called CO poisoning.

  • Try free diving instead of diving.

  • I agree!! :-)

  • They do the same thing here in the DR, if these guys would learn a bit about decompression and used a depth gauge + watch there would be much less accidents. It is surprising they don't as the info is readily available all over the world.

  • Poor man, hope he recovers. Poor people die when the rich have to eat... sick.

  • no one forced them to dive.

  • Hunger force them

  • they should start investing in lobster pots instead of diving gear, its still fairly cheap

  • 3min saftey stop, stay with in no decompression limits... dumasses

  • Sadly those people barely know how to read :/

  • Tem que proibir a pesca da Lagosta por um tempo! A bichinha tá acabando no Brasil....

  • for those brazilian divers lobster meant food on the table and money in their pockets to survive every single day. if only somebody or even their gov`t at least educate them about the dangers of diving too deep and too long and how to avoid those dangers and perhaps, maybe an alternative source of income. sorry for my bad english.. have a great day everybody and take extra care diving.

    kattakiteiks be thankful that you don`t have to catch/dive for your food, i`ve nothing against you. God bless

  • how yo dad feed you for so long?????

    Thats how they feed their children.

    simple as life needs.

  • So guys whats the spear gun for?

    nutters, give me the pots any day

  • it' a cake learn how to use the dive tables,, sorry for my inglish

  • mmmm langostino lobsters. i cant get enough of dining on seafood.

  • mergulho suicida!!!

  • yeah...they dive in that condition because is the only way they can get money to buy some food for their family...obviously they cant eat lobsters.... in brazilians northeast, almost everyone that can buy a lobster is not born in brazil...(or its a corrupt governor)...

    (Sorry about my bad english)

  • For some reason that made me laugh. Mainly about the lobsters.

  • man these poeple sould never be alowed to do this, or at least have a dive watch and know the dive tables

  • Dive tables have been around for about a century, a 10 minute talk and u can understand what to do and how to read them

  • Great vid , really interesting but no subtitles or voice-over ?

  • pls translate the foreign languages
