Photo by @mike_hettwer - SHIPBREAKING - In the shipbreaking yards north of Chittagong in Bangladesh, up to 225 large ships are “broken” each year by workers desperate for a job. There are over 100 yards here focused on 25-30 year old oil tankers and container ships - and it takes from 3-6 months  to completely “break” a ship.  These Bangladeshi workers are “carriers” and their job is to carry the ten thousand pound cable out to the ship and the heavy sheets of steel cut from the ships. The ships are cut apart from the inside and sections are winched to shore using these thick steel cables. Most of the ship will be resold, and much of the steel will be cut into sheets and extruded into rebar for construction in the rest of the country. Their typical work week is six days of 12 hours each, for $1-3 per day.  For these workers, it’s a physical and dangerous job - they wade barefoot through the mud which contains sharp pieces of steel cut from the ship, heavy metals, engine oil and other dangers. Many of the carriers have permanent depressions worn into their shoulders from carrying the cables. The short shipbreaking video we produced has been seen by over 700,000 people and can be viewed on several sites including the Nat Geo YouTube channel: “Where Ships Go to Die, Workers Risk Everything”.
