I Tried Being a Porter on Africa's Tallest Mountain | Superskilled with Eva zu Beck

Eva travels to Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania, where she joins a team of female high-altitude porters in an attempt to understand how they manage to carry heavy loads to the top of Africa’s tallest mountain. Although women have only recently joined the male porters in this line of work, they carry the same amount of weight (20 kilograms, or 44 pounds) as they supply tourist camps along the mountain routes.
