Kavadi porters are men who consider it a spiritual duty to help pilgrims complete their journeys - and carry their massive kavadis back from the temple. Full story: http://rage.com.my/thaipusam
R.AGE followed a group of kavadi porters during Thaipusam at Batu Caves, where pilgrims (and the porters) have to climb 272 steps to reach the temple. In total, the journey takes three hours.
