Diving for gold #video#Philippines The children in the small Philippine town of Paracale get used to working from an early age. They often skip school because they have nothing to eat. Then, to make $2-3 a day, they pan for gold. While kids work on the surface, adults dive into deep, narrow wells to extract the precious metal. Prospectors use diving masks with snorkels to breathe underwater. But if walls collapse, the divers have no way out. ‘While you’re down the mine, you have one foot in the grave’ is a popular saying in Paracale. Check out the full documentary to hear more!
