Sand Hogs
Produced by: Dan Collison
Take a tour of the tunnels of New York with the Sand Hogs. These construction workers, whose tradition goes back 100 years, build all the tunnels there. Their work is grueling and dangerous, but they have formed a brotherhood who rely on one another for survival. "Sand Hogs" is part of producer Dan Collison's "American Workers" series.
