May God always bless the people of Afghanistan.
Especially the women as they are severely underrated.
Seeing him steady the mould while his off- sider poured made my toes curl🫣
A bare hand a three inches from a guy pouring 1,300 degree F molten aluminum from a crude, shop-built ladle. That would require a level of trust that I do not possess.
Well, the leidenfrost effect exists but still wouldn't do it myself
The amount of trust is incredible.
That level of trust requires a certain level of stupidity.
😭
Ingenious and hard-working people earns my respect
They are ingenious no doubt about that.
The pots are literally toxic and are giving people lead poisoning.
Metals used in engines and such are not food grade and require significant chemical refining that is not done here to remove lead from them.
This is literally why we have codes and standards.
you're a clown shut up
I'm so glad I live in a country where we can use brand new metal and not old and worn down shit
@@DeadDanganronpaGuy There's no such thing as "brand new metal".
Metal is recycled and reused everywhere, that's not the problem. The problem is that there's the right way to do and the wrong way to do it.
This is the wrong way to do it.
Wow - Real craftsmanship! 😀
Teamwork makes the dream work.
Other wise, its designing &manufacturing is awesome
Nice looking pressure cooker for how it was made. They use what they have, and make it happen. We are very spoiled in the western world. I hope to see us all working together to make a better world for all.
Say whatever you want people but these are some hard working human beings... hats off to them!
Not by choice
Hard working but not willing to put in the hard work to get out from under their oppressive violent regime of a government thats keeps them in absolute destitution.
They sound like aliens to me !
Not to mention how diligently and admirably they toil away to ensure people have wonderful cookware, filled with lead and other contaminants to help flavor all the lovely foods cooked in these fine vessels, using alloys which were never meant for cooking tools. Nice!
@@wr7033 all thanks to america who delayed their advancements by 20+ years.
Simple, low tech, labour intensive yet so ingenious. Salute to the Afghanis. You make do with so little, wish you all the best from India. Peace and prosperity.
Respect for these talented hard working men 🙌
@@MickLafitte read the room, brother.
@@miki_9034 I am absolutely positive we don't share parents. And I suggest you start reading independent news outlets. You may then have a chance.
you're a clown shut up
Every worker in the world is evenly hardworking...
@@Kazafi007 What floor are you on?
Absolutely gorgeous product. Would I use it for cooking? No. Would I buy one for decoration and to support the artisans? Yes.
Why would you support mass murderers?
My thoughts as well.
Of course i would use it for cooking
Their work is good enough for some pompous fool to hold high in a virtuous display of 3rd world “art”, but it’s not good enough to use for its intended purpose… smh. Look around, 9 out of 10 working there would be angry that their work sits idle on a shelf in the home of some snooty insipid condescending westerner.
you sound like my mom
If you cook in one of these remember the recommended oil is 10-W30.
Base or synthetic?
Depends on the weather.😜
I personaly would use 20W-50, but that's me lol.
@@peterburton3147 Does have better flavor...
😂synthetic is better -high smoke point.only once in life time ?short life
Always love to see the practical safety standards in other countries..
what standards here? They lead poising their own kindsmen.
Appreciate their handwork and hardwork
Very enterprising and hard working people. My admiration ❤👏👍
From pretty much nothing to finished product, I really enjoyed your endeavor, and craftsmanship. Thanks.
Please do learn the difference between food grade aluminium and other aluminium like shown in this video. According to the research these Afghan pots are adding extreme levels of lead to the food, which is causing a lot of problems in the population and furthermore, these Afghan cauldrons have been banned in foreign countries.
So what is the difference?
@@mosesmanaka8109 Lead is toxic.
Are you saying Afghan safety standards are not the same as in the USA lol
Love the steel toe flip flops
Do you know this for a fact? They do their best with what they have and it sells very well 😊
Kudos Hardworking very skilled workers 1!!
In hard work, Afghans hold the key.❤
From the chaos of breaking the raw materials to the making of the molds and then casting and finishing of the pots I became very impressed. The workers did a wonderful job of creating the most beautiful cookware I have ever seen. Very beautiful. The men can take pride in a difficult job well done. Very beautiful pots!
I love his safety sandals..
Calluses on the tops of their feet...
Now they upgraded to safety crocs
and this respiratory protection!
Western people are really something else, instead of watching and commenting on the techniques demonstrated in this videos, all they watch is what PPE they are wearing, this is what happens when people stop using their common sense and start using government regulation books for guidance in their daily life. Really pathetic.
@@ORDEROFTHEKNIGHTSTEMPLAR13 steel toed toes
Appreciate their workmanship and hours of hard work
That is genuinely very cool.......so long as you don't think about the lead poisoning.
Meh, minor detail!!
Lets hope they not cook something sour.
@@FnD4212 You are thinking about aluminum. There is no difference what they cook, lead will leach into food.
They were banned from being sold on amazon because of the high lead content. Some unscrupulous people still try to sell them on there. Some states have banned their sale altogether. More states might do the same.
@@Jonathan.D - Explains the thinking over there!
Честь и хвала этим трудягам, создавать такие шедевры с учётом обстоятельств и ручного труда, это невероятно. Наверное многие забыли, что именно так и начинали свою историю все промышленные гиганты.
Very sophisticated operation, they've got gloves, a wheelbarrow, chairs and everything!
I wonder what kind of a 401K plan they have?
@@todaylets2583 - For every 401K pots they make they get 10 minutes rest.
They defeated the us army with the same tools though
LOL, they will be blind, deaf and have carpel tunnel before dying of blood poisoning!
That one guy even had professional work sandals.
The end products looks amazing, for decoration
Decorating the side of the road packed with explosive
@@TheLoxxxton you don't need explosive with pressure cooker.
@@donwmz it looks good and also is reknown for working well . Soviet Union taught industrial quality to Afghans
@@donwmz remember art nouveau? Modernismo? Baroque weapons? Roman armours? Exhibing decorative elements is perfectly compatible with being useful.
@@macarenarojo It was 20 years of the US democracy
Beautiful work, thank you for sharing.
good say
Love the guy give a 👍,
Live happy afghanistan.
Amazing!
Incredible skills shown by these men, very impressive!
We know that the Afghans are hardworking people, and this is one example of their beautiful workmanship skill and hard labor..Hats off Brothers..
Half a litre of oil stll inside the engine pan they just melted down. Helps with the fire!
That's also for flavoring. "Hey dad, this rice... is this aftertaste of a Totota or a Nissan?" 😂 I really admire these workers
in a lot of smaller shops waste engine oil also fires the smelter ...
makes the food go down a little easier
@@JavierBonillaCwhat is a tototo ?
@@Nash15118 I meant Toyota, sorry
One way or another they are great artists at work ❤
excellent quality control.../Safety is top notch also.
Most people born in the U.S. might not realize just how unsafe many countries are. We have a lot of benefits in our society that are easily, and quite often, taken for granted.
Love the safety equipment! Where is osha?
How much is union dues? Paid maternity leave?
Yes, quality is so good the metals don't need to have toxic metals, carbon, and lead removed from the engine blocks before turning into a pot.
Wonderful video with all the processes
Customer: "What alloy are these pots made of?"
Afghans: "Yes."
"We put the Whole Periodic Table into the making of our Pots"
A large number of these are destined for sale on Amazon. On the US import they are marked as "mostly aluminum"...Mostly.
Of course the high amount of lead in there gives the food that little extra sweetness. It's the same reason Romans liked drinking wine from lead, it made it taste like a small amount of honey was added.
@@LogicalNiko Yep...until they went insane due to lead poisoning...
Alzimers desese provided free of charge with every pot.
Look up te effects of desolved Aluminium on the body.
US military gear.
Very good dear all. Great effort.😆💕💕
That is team work. Keep it up!
Brilliant work and what a great cooker. What ever your being paid it isn't enough.
Appreciate their workmanship and hours of hard work, if only these cookers were made of food grade aluminium or anodized aluminium would have been great!!!
They use only the finest lead-aluminum alloys.
@@deucedeuce1572 the Chinese used lead as immortality pills, and the Romans drank lead at all times, if you wanna be great you need to learn from those who where once GREAT!
It's not like people gonna use it for cooking, it's just ornamental, isn't it?
@@jurusco Damn, that would be one expensive ornament. I'm fairly certain they're real cooking tools. I do wonder how they keep the pressure though? They don't appear to have a seal. The edges of the aluminum are machined flat, so they may "mate" fairly well... but I didn't think that would be good enough to guarantee a air/water/steam tight seal.
@@deucedeuce1572 35:45
Respects to these hardworking men. I imagine they earn very little. Their work environment is terrible and there are safety issues. Yet they have no choice.
The example of child labor is superb!
what child labour? the laws in Afghanistan are different and 15 year olds are adults in their country and can work. @@stevolopez
Of course they have choices and options. They have just made the wrong ones in life to end up how they are.
@@auturgicflosculator2183 You see your argument would only make sense if i said everybody is equal and they cant do better. I am not saying that. I am saying they could have done better in life and made poor decisions that led them to where they are. Everyone is a master of their own destiny and with enough effort almost anyone can raise themselves from that sort of life.
@@auturgicflosculator2183 Its 2024, those people have almost as much freedom as i do. less opportunity, not as good looking or long in the dong as me, but they could have done better with their life, and if you are honest you would agree.
❤😮Hermosa olla
Beautiful color! Looks quite strong too.
Beautiful product. I have seen these in action and I am amazed at their strength. Awesome to watch the process these craftsmen do. God bless them all.
Beautiful cookers that gives you alzheimers.
They would be top notch if they don’t contain lead.
Pressure cookers are a fave for IED's
Only at marathons in the US.
The high levels of lead and heavy metals make them not useful for cooking
Maybe stop invading their countries to steal resources and it wouldn't be a fave.
🤣🤣😂
pressure cookers were taliban's favourite for making IED's
Great work!!!
They love things that blow up!

Alot of people cussing them here in the comments but when your country is under embargo from the world, you make do with what you got, well done to them!
Its not cussing them.... these are normal people sharing their understanding to aware Afghan people..... these people have nothing to with governmental levels man......Afghan people can also make utensils using mud which can be a much better healthier option but would take some extra time to cook.....
very nice example of what they call "gaslighting" no one is cussing by questioning the actual safety factor. do you enjoy starting trouble or trolling or what?
@@jjrusy7438 Gaslighting...??? go and check where and when did kidney failure, liver failure, heart failure happened, it all came from the west by sacrificing generations of people and even today they do the same.... first feed chemicals and other harmful metals, plastic via packed food claiming to be to "food quality" and then big pharma comes in to cash for which they spend billion of dollars in so called research to steal the money of innocent unsuspecting people...when people try to go natural all so called doctors jump and claim it to be a myth and sign of primitive and uneducated society...even eating oil adulterated causing young girls cyst and imbalance hormonal growth, all those chips and snacks packed causing blood pressure due to high quantity of sodium and reused oil same with so called food preservatives,,,right now you feel as if its cussing -- but wait for "development" to reach Afghanistan then see the rise in obesity, infertility, diseases like cancer, blood pressure, sugar and other defects causing DNA to change just as we see in the west and where ever this "development" have reached..
@@jjrusy7438you’re the troll mate, Somali pirates ?!?!
The embargo has nothing to do with it. India, Bangladesh, and Pakistan, and many other places do the same things. They don't have the infrastructure, and many places are like 100 years behind the first world when it comes to conveniences and safety. People make a hundred or a couple hundred dollars a year, labor is cheaper than the equipment. The fuel is wood, or probably waste oil, whatevers around.
How things are done there is how things were done a long time ago in places like the US, England, and Europe. For local consumption.
VERY HARD WORKING GOD BLESS YOU
These are gorgeous looking traditional pots. I have a soft spot for these small scale semi manual prodution, it shows the skill of the artisan.
Id love to buy one if ots available in my country❤

I feel sorry for that guy. He traded his health/lungs and life for a couple years work.
He traded his health and lungs for not starving to death soon.
@@deucedeuce1572 i mean nothing is preventing him from buying a respirator... except his own ignorance. I know theyre not cheap but neither is lung cancer / alzheimers from inhaling aluminum dust all day
@@williammadisondavis I'm not sure if he has the money. His boss probably does and I think that should be his responsibility. As much as I hate all the laws we have in the US (because we have WAY too many)... I'm glad we at least have laws that employers are responsible for creating safe working conditions for their workers.
@@williammadisondavis Yeah... but when you're getting paid $1/day of work and respirators are something that you probably have to order from another country... for an amount of money that you'll probably never have... then there might be a couple things actually keeping him from buying one.
glad to see theyre wearing safety sandels
👀🩴🔥
Very impressive and attractive product. I especially admire the recycling of materials. Well done.
@VineGrove123Some might even contain cadnium from the worn out engine blocks. Finger linking good.
Good to see health and safety active in the country.
That is so Walla-Walla it's downright Woolah-Woolah!
I love the pressure cookers ,, great work guys ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Throw it away, its putting lead into your food. These are NOT made from food safe aluminium
Thank You for sharing your amazing Skills
Whatever these guys are getting paid, it's not enough!
Those are the most beautiful cooking pots I've ever seen. Almost too beautiful to actually use.
Ought to be in a museum!
WoW! Great video
It's all about safety in this factory.
Do your best guys, take care of you and your customers.

Hard work matters and Afganis are very good people.
Afghans. Afghani is a unit of currency
good I hope they stay there and improve their own country instead of trying to 'improve' ours
Okay, so now I want one just as a display piece! Awesome video!
It’s shiny! It must be an incredible product!
Great job done
Well done
hard working yourg men to make a living...blessed be
To see bare hands holding the lid mould while it was being poured was frightening!
Fantastic work. Well done.
Looks like a nice place to work.
Very good Amazing process
I like the pressure test they make..
The first thing I noticed as well. Zero QC. But then again, Afghans are well known for their bomb making abilities.
@@bdwilcoxBombing the country one kitchen at a time?
fascinating....just like in Middle Ages.

Those are way better workers than we have here in the United States. Innovative, hard-working and resourceful with their self-made tools.
Good with their hands and feet.
you obviously dont work in the USA
Obviously you don’t work
I like the safety sandals!
Really good operations !

Nice flower pots 😊
flowers possibly will die from lead from this pots
Isn't there allot of zinc and lead in de aluminium alloys? As far as I can tell it's not XRF analyzed aluminium but just the whole lot of cast aluminium/zinc scrap.
Yes. It doesn't matter to them. They don't know what lead is.
@M3GAprincess rude
@@ahmedelkhwaga2751 Reality is rude. Mother Nature is cruel. I pray to honesty, not false gods.
@@M3GAprincess amen
Lead, zinc and aluminium have different melting points and sortly weights, I am not sure if lead and aluminium can be made into an alloy. I think lead is just a contamination in aluminium and that it weakens the material. Scraps form airplanes would do fine.
i loved the safety level
Hard working guys. Great Job!
The man carrying and pouring the ladle full of molten aluminum was wearing sandals! Give the guy a raise so he could at least afford tennis shoes. He probably works harder in a day than I do in a week. These men have my respect. Many years ago, when I worked as a welder, steel toed boots were mandatory. So was eye and ear protection along with hard hats. OSHA made regular trips through the plant.
How about the poor guy holding the lid from together for the pour only inches from his hands 😭 and no gloves OMG!!!
Really neat. I would buy one in a heartbeat just to support them, except I have serious doubts that there is anything safe about cooking in these.
Yeah, bet some are made from destroyed western tank parts. Worst quality.
Just use them as flower pots.
I'm confident it is safe. Think of the pressure inside of an internal combustion engine, the source of the raw material for the product. It's a younger work force but they seem to take pride in their workmanship. Was hoping to see one in operation in a kitchen.
cook? they make great IED's...
@@jreeder6168 Its not the pressure and risk of explosions that make these dangerous. Its the materials used. Its the metals which arent suited for food production. Aluminum, zink, lead, etc. Making food in these will basically contaminate the food, and eating it will most definitely give all sorts of health problems in long term
They are so safety conscious
My god, how many fingers do you need?
it might poison you but goot craftsmanship.

Ba-Boom, your brand new pressure cooker with self-destruct mode !
Aren't these the ones mentioned recently that show high levels of lead?
I like the transparency shown here that is absent in American oligarchy. These folks are proud to show you what deregulation has to offer. When faith > science this is precisely the result you can expect as a consumer and precisely why the oligarchs embrace the ideology. To them, this is a dream operation. No inspections, no oversight, no safety, no rules. Further, if you are a libertarian, you have just agreed with everything I just wrote as if it were all desirable. In short, you want America to be Afghanistan. This is your vision for America.
Nailed it.
Did you see early in the video the guy with the gloves. Looks like he is missing fingers by the way he is holding and moving the forged pieces. Look at about 10:06 to 11:35. There are regulations in the civilized world for a reason. Sometimes they are bad and cumbersome and sometimes they are desperately needed. We do not live in a perfect world. Yeah safety managers are a pain in the tush. But I'd rather live in a world with them than not.
@@p.o.9964 There is a subtle difference between regulation and authoritarianism. When regulation is for the benefit of the populace, provides a level economic playing field for those competitive institutions being regulated, and is based upon scientific studies instead of political agendas (left or right), then they are typically good, needed regulations.
I'm just wondering how many of those mills and lathes were making IED's for 20 years. I'm sure they had the same attention to details, though I'm guessing a lack of transparency?
@@BillMooney-r5c And this is your best argument for deregulation? What, exactly, is your point? Could it be that religious extremism embedded within government leads to the secret construction of terrorist weapons? Why would terrorists choose to be transparent about that?
