In the video, a person is using a shovel to transfer glowing red coals from a metal container into a larger metal container. The coals are bright red and glowing, indicating that they are hot. The person is wearing protective gloves while handling the coals. The larger container already contains some coals, and the person is carefully placing the new coals on top of the existing ones. The background is not clearly visible, but it appears to be an industrial or outdoor setting.
