This video contrasts the inexperience of a young worker in the construction industry and the experience of a worker who is dying from exposure to asbestos.

Also lots of greedy landlords in Germany. You can't rent an apartment when you start asking where to be careful about asbestos.

One time exposure won’t necessarily kill you. It’s if you work with it unprotected day after day. Never go around it without good PPE.

In 1970 I worked as a carpenter on the school where Tyson learned to box. The soffits and skirts were made of Transite (a cement/asbestos product) which we cut with a circular saw utilizing a carborundum blade without any form of protection. That created such gray cloud that at times you couldn't see the line you were cutting. I spit gray and picked gray for about two months. Since then, through the VA, I've had several scans, and evidently suffer no ill effects. Luck of the Irish??

Asbestos killed my dad. Once diagnosed, he has just a little over a year before he died.

My grampa was sick for ten years before he died. He worked for years in an asbestos mine. They didn't have PPE in those days. He was 88.
