These men in Pakistan must be so full of lead they sink, certainly it must effect them severely handling all this lead this way.

It's not OSHA standards, but it's not as bad as you imply. Inorganic lead isn't nearly as dangerous to handle as some people think it is. It's not easily absorbed through the skin. So long as they are religious about washing up before eating (not shown in video, so don't know), ingestion dangers are mitigated. Nor did I see a major lead dust issue, and it looked well ventilated, so the inhalation shouldn't be that bad. Yes, lead was melted and soldered, but that's way below the vapor stage.

I think the melting plastic fumes here are more of a concern, that and the battery acid without protection.
