Yeah, the pots weigh over 500 lbs each, with probably a couple hundred feet of rope off the end, better hope your foot doesn't get snagged or you're going over and under.

The guys I talked to said they worked about 18 hour days. It really is non-stop work too, it takes about a day to unload the pots, and a day to pick them up. If you've seen the show about it you've seen how many pots there are. At least 50 of them. Hard work, but hell, it's money. I'd do it, and eventually I might if I get the chance.
