I'm not denying the animals can be stressed, scared or both at the same time.
Physically, 100kg is nothing for them to carry. The creatures are extremely sturdy and strong.
But do I doubt bad people abuse the animals? No. The problems start with the tourists. Most people can't understand or notice when an animal is not feeling fine with what is happening. But if a tourist is willing to pay whatever may be asked to experience a "genuine" local practice, it is prone to be colonized by people that do not care for the wellfare of the animals.
I guess to me the weight is not likely the issue. It's the fact that they're being forced to do a repetitive task around and for people they don't know or trust and get whipped for every little undesirable action.
