Watch Al Jazeera's series Risking It All online

There's an American show called Dirty Jobs where the host goes around the country and performs disgusting jobs, like pig poop scooper.  Well, that's nothing.

Al Jazeera's new series features people in the Third World, working dangerous jobs because they have to.  The first episode, now available online, shows kids along the Amazon who hitch onto fast-moving passenger ferries to sell fruit.  Lula has done a lot during his presidency to lift millions above grinding poverty, but his successor has a lot more work ahead of her.

Here is a preview of next week's episode, about truck drivers of Pakistan's Lowari Pass.

Here is a listing of future episodes.  They should all be available online, eventually.
