what a way to go, but pretty stupid on his part

An American tourist trying to visit a lush, remote island in India has been killed by an island tribe completely cut off from the outside world and known to attack outsiders with bows and arrows, police revealed Wednesday. Two police officials identified the victim to Reuters as John Allen Chau, 27. They added that he was illegally ferried by fishermen to North Sentinel Island last week, part of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, a group of islands in the Bay of Bengal between India and Burma.

They are known for that.
Meh, I want to build an Iron man suit and just walk around and see what they are up to.
At this point, there is a chance they are a different species.

Good for them. I wouldn't want millennials on my island either.

The islands weren't just off limits to protect him. They are also off limits to protect the islanders from disease. His lil proselytizing trip could end up killing more than him.

I have heard the human hand is like baby back ribs.

He was warned and knew what he was doing. Even after being given what were apparently warning shots with arrows, he continued and was last seen being dragged off with a rope around his neck.
They did recover his body on the beach.
Bet he won't do that again.

Sentinel is pretty fascinating to read about. Totally autonomous and sovereign island that has basically no interference from the outside even as far as prosecution goes for killing anyone. They’ve been killing outsiders for years with no consequences from India. Hell, I think they even throw you in jail if you even get close enough or aid someone’s visit.

There's quite a few of these tribes left in the world. Brazil has some deep in the Amazon.

I don't think you realize how long they have been isolated
If we're talking about the right island.

They just didn’t want him to disturb Kong
