Photo taken by @stevemccurryofficial // Vessels from around the world end up in ship-breaking yards to be broken down into scrap. The workers reduce these colossal ships to tons of material which is then sold. It is a dirty and dangerous job. These vessels were beached so the workers can begin the dismantling process. Workers are exposed to lead, asbestos, and other dangerous toxins. This photograph was taken near Karachi, Pakistan. by natgeo
