節目介紹 / Introduction
自古華山一條路,在這條路上有一群「挑山的人」,他們常年背負數十、上百斤的貨物,在陡峭、險峻的高山上艱難攀越,以每斤三、四毛錢的價格出賣著自己的勞力。然而,他們在極度疲累中卻能尋回寶貴的自尊。


To conquer a mountain - a literal challenge for climbers or a metaphor for facing life's difficulties. But, for a hardy group of porters who scale the rugged ridges of China's Mount Huashan, it's BOTH - and it's all in a day's work. They trudge up the steep slopes of one of China's five sacred Taoist mountains every day, simply to earn a meaner living. From drinking water to building materials, everything that's needed at the peak goes up 3,999 steps strapped to their backs and across their shoulders. Presenter Chen Xiaonan and producer Zhu Weiming met touching souls and some colorful characters as they earn minimum wage, but maximum respect for unimaginably hard work.
