Honey collectors in Nepal risk life and limb to get their treasure (13 Photos)

Man ticket level 99

Thats not just honey harvesting. Its a way of life for these guys. The new generation dont do it as much but the old timers are not changing their way of doing things. Btw i am from nepal and personally witnessed. There are plenty o nepalese chivers .trust me.

I guess the price of gold has come down cause these folks sure don't look like they're living like kings??

and they probably barely get paid anything while the honey sells for an amazingly high price.

Savages! At least #7 has a cig

Stfu!!! They are hard working people….
Btw these photos are old too…

#7 some how this dude can aquire a pack of smokes but can't seem to buy some prepackage honey?
