We’ve seen this sort of work before, but the way this team of men worked the hot steel was something to see. Here are a couple of videos.
Wow, that is totally amazing……

I didn’t notice until now that the man is not wearing any shoes. Truly Amazing!
Our guide took us to this place. It was near the lotus-silk factory.
