Beach Battle: Inuit Hunters Confront a Huge Walrus in the Arctic

[@edwardspencer3906]

Anyone who hunts in this manner, can take ALL the wildlife they want. This is the definition of a Fair Fight! Brave People, indeed.

[@csyarid]

"Fair Fight"?! What a stupid ignorant premise! Imagine all of the pain and anguish that that walrus went through. It's death happened very, VERY slowly.

[@edwardspencer3906]

@@csyarid calm down, dude.. it's a Fair Fight cuz they can lose their lives PLUS their Families won't eat.. could be a very slow and painful death from STARVATION for a Family or maybe their whole Village, Karen! Think before you spew...

[@MichaelScovil-ng9ec]

It was filmed in 1922. "Nanook of the North".

[@callumclark3358]

I was watching this in the '60's. Believe it or not, we had colour film back then. Comments on this film would have been much the same then as they are now, but perhaps not so many of the animal rights nutters.

[@davidhill492]

Amazing they even got the harpoon in that thing if they able to pull it just by the barb.

[@wesadrian6981]

Heck of a tug of war 😂

[@АсафАсафыч-п5й]

...это ,,поворотный" гарпун.Он отделяется от древка и при натяжении веревки становится поперек раневого канала.Его невозможно вынуть,только вырезать.

[@callumclark3358]

Their harpoon barbs must have been very cleverly designed. There were three men on the line, I presume the fourth man waded in and killed the animal somehow. Possibly the tug-of-war was prolonged somewhat for filming purposes.

[@amrelgohary5472]

Waoo real hunters what a perfect vedio

[@samueljones9468]

Amazed that a harpoon would stay in for that fight.

[@derrickconnolly9164]

I've used a harpoon when I was working in the Arctic. I went out a group of Inuit on a bolluga hunt. I harpooned a 10 foot one. You just ride along side one and stab it with the harpoon then pull the rope which is attached to the point of the harpoon which when pulled it pivots the top of harpoon like a grapple. Allow the animal to swim and drown. Then drag it to the beach. The women do all the butchering. This is true.

Как они могли добывать морского зверя до появления железа ? Их система оружия рассчитана на использования железных гарпунов , ни кость , ни дерево , ни камень не могут пробить и удержать моржа , а бронзы у них не было , значит или были другие способы охоты или морских охотников на побережье не было и они появились только с появлением железа .
