Roman Gold miner.
Prepare to embrace the great thrill of working underground for endless hours in terrible cramped conditions. You will start work in the middle of nowhere, somewhere 25 metes below the surface. While under ground, you’re given a tiny iron pick that is sure to cover you with razor sharp splinters. Fires are regularly set to speed up the gold extraction, and if you’re not burned or choked by the fire, you may be maimed or killed by the subsequent explosion as water hits the hot rock.
After a long days of work, you need to carry huge amounts of mine soil through the narrow tunnels. Aware that at anytime you may be splattered by a falling rock or boulder.

- Able to use a mining pick.
- Physical Fitness
- Be a Team player.

Enroll now and experience the thrill of fun, adventure, the sound of thundering hoofs and the growl of furiously friendly dogs. Don’t worry though – you won’t be shot with real bullets – only an early type of blank cartridge that at worst will leave a painful burn and long-lasting scars.
It’s like “Hide and Seek!” – with a twist…
Requirements:
- Physical Fitness.

Executioners also had a bad job! They were hated by everyone and apparently it didn’t feel that good to kill someone!

I think I’m going to apply for the hunt help. I was always very good at hide and seek.
