They’d probably kill any human that came in contact with them

I highly doubt this is an undiscovered tribe though. Hell, it could be smugglers. Also, that clearing looks suspect. Looks like the trees had been cleared by loggers

OweO

You might be the dumbest son of a bitch on these boards, and that’s saying a lot. Congratulations.

Yep. If we know they are there, and how they live, why are we flying a drone over them?

I assume, they would be frightened to death?

Probably just some dudes they found in the city and put some leaves on their crotches and handed them a stick and paid them $5 to go stand in the woods

How the frick did they come to that conclusion through that drone footage?

remember reading somewhere that the human eye and brain can't comprehend things that are so incredibly foreign like ships on the horizon in the New World.

Now, that sounds like BS to me, but those people never even looked up at the drone.


Even if they did, why would they be shocked? Can’t tell me that they never looked up and haven’t seen a jet flying through the air.

To add, how do they know they’ve never had contact with the outside world? Who confirmed this? And how? Because if they asked them, guess what....they’re having contact with the outside world and makes that observation false.

I bet they have no idea what suicide is. Their lives are so filled with living they don't know what its like to sit on a bean bag chair, in A/C, with a full belly and contemplate how their life is "the worst".

not this American.

My life expectancy being greater than 40 sealed the deal for me. And not watching my kids die off because they got an infection.

I watched a documentary on the last nomadic eskimos filmed in the 70's. They seemed genuinely happier than anyone I know. The mens hands looked like weapons. They had fingernails so thick it looked like they could rip your face off with them.

We assume dead people wouldn’t vote for Democrats, but they do.

You're post actually proved me incorrect. If calling OweO the dumbest SoB on the board is, in your view, a melt, then you just invalidated my point.


Congratulations on the new title.

They have, and will. IIRC, it is forbidden by the government to try and make contact with them

They are definitely a documented tribe. There is even one or two videos of them on YouTube
