May Day Protests in Sri Lanka - 2017

Back in 2017 I was sailing on a Maersk Container Ship that had a port call in Sri Lanka on May Day. This is unshared footage of the peaceful protests that occurred that day. Being that May Day was this week, I felt it was an appropriate time to share it.
Channel update:
I apologize for the lack of posting and updates. I am working another job right now after suffering a snowboarding injury this winter, but will return to sea later this year with new content. I will try to upload more content including old and new footage from the Merchant Marine as well as other topics of interest in the meantime. Hope all is well with everyone! -Bryan

Hope you heal quickly! Love your videos. ❤

Great to see the world and all different aspects of it!

[@katarafriend]

Hi Bryan! Love your videos. I was wondering what are the chances for someone with no experience or qualification as engineer to work at a cargo ship? Are there any job positions for someone that would cook or clean?

[@JohnDoeRando]

Good to sea you posting again.... See what I did there? Lol

[@peteregan3862]

Thanks for posting this. Gives some context to economic troubles Sri Lanka has after Covid stole its tourism industry - a large part of its foreign income. India has given some financial assistance to the country, but it really needs tourism and other industries to bounce back.

Stay away from those snowboards , older folks get hurt easily on them

Good to see you back. Hope the accident was nothing from which a full recovery is possible. Now... get back to sea and film some more great videos!

Hi, I'm a subscriber of your channel from Sri Lanka. Its heartbreaking when i see these footages of sri kanka five years ago and the current economic and political situation of the country.

[@dumindudesilva083]

The area you've covered in this video had almost been a protest site lately. That's what made Sri Lanka in the recent news.

[@dogechrist]
