Chimney sweeps could choke to death on the soot.They could die young of lung disease.They could fall from high up in the chimney or they could burn in the fires their masters lit when they were up in the chimney
Remember it was small children who were sent up the chimney to clean it. It was a very dangerous job, for they just had to cling on to the walls, and often fell. Soot in the eyes was no joke, and many who survived, lost their eyesight

Young children were chimeny sweeps in Victorian times because they could fit down the chimney better than adults Unfair ain't it
Oh, dude, back in the Victorian times, a chimney sweep would rake in about 4 to 6 shillings a week. That's like the price of a fancy coffee these days, but instead of a latte, they were inhaling soot and risking their lives climbing up chimneys. So, yeah, not the most glamorous job, but hey, someone had to do it, right?
yes but very little.
Chimney sweepers in the Victorian times were typically children who were paid very little, often just a few pennies per job. They worked in dangerous and unhealthy conditions, climbing up chimneys to clean them. This practice was eventually outlawed due to concerns for child welfare.

In Victorian times, chimneys that chimney sweeps worked in were often quite narrow, typically measuring around 18 to 24 inches wide. These dimensions were designed to maximize the draft for the fires below but made it difficult for adults to navigate. As a result, young boys were often employed for the job, as they could fit into these cramped spaces more easily. The hazardous conditions and physical toll on the child workers led to widespread reform and eventual regulation of the chimney sweeping industry.
