The Last Mermaids: Meet the Oldest Sea Divers in the World | Free Documentary Most Dangerous Ways To School - Uganda: https://youtu.be/5vhY-y1ErZw Mother to daughter, generation after generation, for over 2000 years, the women of Jeju Island, off South Korea, have worked as Haenyos, or sea divers. We follow these women, aged between 45-85, as they dive deep into the ocean, with only lead belts and a sharp knife, skillfully picking abalone and octopus. At 83 years old, Ok-sun Hyun is the best diver in Jeju island. For 65 years, she has hung between life and death as a shell-diver. This is primitive, painful, lonely work, rife with danger. But the women are steadfast, comical, and spiritual. This remarkable, unique, programme follows the woman in the sea and at home, and they chase the shells, and hope the tides are kind. They are remarkable, proud, and brave. But is this an occupation from a previous generation? Will it survive to another age, or are these truly the last mermaids? #FreeDocumentary #Documentary #Haenyos ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Subscribe to Free Documentary Channel for free: https://bit.ly/2YJ4XzQ ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Free Documentary is dedicated to bringing high-quality documentaries to you on YouTube for free with the latest camera equipment used by well-known filmmakers working for famous production studios.
