What an amazing doc. I really love the way that the director allowed certain sounds to fill the scene; it was almost haunting at times. Much like one would think for the seemingly unnatural emptiness of space, so too does the diver here endeavor into a harsh, pitch black, and lethal environment. And yet, too, we have a hero. And not just for the work and care he puts into his profession, but also the personal connection he maintains to it; it's as if he is not just physically but also spiritually sustained through that umbilical cord reaching back to the surface. A sub-mariner Major Tom.

I just happened to see a similar video on Facebook a few days ago. Accept the man had no wet or dry suit at all. I think he had on shorts. Small goggles, and a breathing hose in his mouth. That's it. Nothing else.
No other protection. At all. Might have been South America. Maybe Asia. Scary.

You guys have not seen the world. There are people who clean sewage for their entire life without these fancy suits. Go to other countries like India, or any other Asian countries or any poor country where such suits are not even known.

Big surprise, he's not a woman. If you need someone to crawl into a sewer, a nuclear reactor, or any other god forsaken crevice, you'll find a man there. Why? Cause men are rocks, with endurance and guts!

I wonder if Mike Rowe ever had an episode on Dirty Jobs on this particular insane job. This is like going into a Nuke plant after a disaster!

without people like these our societies would completely fall apart. I hope this man is rewarded for what he does, he truly deserves it.
