At the Coconut Museum
"A coconut collector can climb up to a hundred trees per day. He
carries a net (on the wall) which can hold many tens of coconuts, and
he wears a hat/cap to keep the ants off his hair. This is how we
climb the coconut trees. This contraption is tied to the thigh of the
coconut collector with his heel on the hook, and he climbs by digging
the pointed end into the tree..."
