I did 37 years of this, a few sad times but a lot of good times, just loved it, had to retire, silly bugger I got a stage 4 Cancer, in remission now but not allowed underground, loved the work as a Shift Boss and the Guys are a different breed.

Been fixing broken gear since 88. captive stopes, track, mechanised........anyone that says this isn't work hasn't been there! Different each and every method, all dangerous. Hats off to the mend women that kept me working and helped me raise a family. Excellent video! Thanks for sharing

Congratulations to the maker of this short video! I worked as an underground fitter ten years ago and could never explain it or show it to my friends and family. You capture everything except the heat and humidity perfect - Thanks for your hard work.

In the coalmines in France we went down the vertical shaft not slope or drift and we worked more than 1000 m underground. The coal seam were inclined ( average 45° ) and the thickness 1 m maximum...! Not mechanized...+ firedamp risks +roof collapse + black lung at 40 years old.....! That's why I think the mining work shown on the video is easy, because the machines do the job not the miners..!
