Hadza hunting porcupine 8ft underground: A Hadza Documentary

[@CNR_ADMS]

One of the most incredible series I've watched. These people's way of life exposes to us a raw human capacity for survival, but also for good humour, kindness and intelligence. Long live the Hadza!

My father was born in that area in 1938. After the war Grandpa and Grandma with their three sons returned to Switzerland. My Grandmother had been born also in East Africa, as the daughter of a German veterinarian, the famous Margarete Trappe was her aunt and godmother. As a little boy my Dad told me stories of Tanganyka, of the animals and the people. I got a Hadza bow and arrow that they brought back to Europe. You can not imagine how much I enjoyed this documentary, the singing and dancing at the end brought tears to my eyes. These are so wonderful people and you white boys (and girl) did great as really respectful and semingly pleasant guests. That was some of the best documentary filming I ever watched, no it was THE best.

Welcome to Tanzania -East Africa I live near to this tribe. I will accampagn to the field.

[@sknt]

This was a great documentary. The Hadza are incredible people and hunters. Their determination and persistence is admirable. This is how humans got to the top of the food chain before technology made it easy.

[@tinashechawasarira9737]

Where did you learn the Hadza language.?

[@sapduke8691]

That is if we are all human beings & Not human beasts living with human beings!

This was the most interesting documentary ever! Thank you so much for making it and posting it here! Truly fascinating and inspiring. I will be thinking about this for a long time

Every time I watch one of these videos in this Hadza series, I think “This is the most amazing thing I have ever seen!” Then, I watch another one and it tops it!

This Series was one of the best things ive ever Watched , im So Impressed by them and disgusted by myself now...

Definitely not disgusted by my instant noodles. Quite thankful actually 😊😊

Just recently subscribed but very impressed by how you present your information and reinforce that you are merely a bystander/student/ (hopefully) friend. Nice change in pace from from those who document to further their own agendas.

[@cutarecutarescu]

Whoa.... what a feeling must have been for you to live close to these brothers of ours...

[@thefatredguy]

Awesome video. I'm really curious about how these people sleep. Do they just lay on the ground, under a tree or something ? What position do they prefer ? Lay on their back, on one side or on the stomach ? They probably don't have something like pillow and matress , right ?

[@aim__freakz8499]

and how many hours on average?

[@efehansahin2172]

I prefer a blanket on a wooden ground and my arm serves as pillow. I kinda start on the side or just chilled on the back. And waking up I find myself smashed on the ground face down 😆😆

[@thais234]

But what country do they live in?

[@dru4670]

Bruh this really puts everything into perspective.

nice! keep it up man. Hopefully will see the Hadza people again soon. Love from South Africa

[@netgeo6100]

i'd love to see you come to my country Namibia and chill with the San bushman of our desert Kalahari, who are considered to be the first people on earth and i can say the hadza are definitely direct relatives of the San because they're way of life is very similar especially speaking in clicks!

[@nofake1180]

Thats very true..

[@fl2rms]

I agree man, Tsumkwe or anywhere around

[@vincent6210]

I think if you're living for survival giving up won't arise at all. It's pure persistence. We have too many distractions and comfort places to go so we quicly resort to the easy way out.

I'm curious about their relationships with women. Do they have monogamous relationships? Also what is their daily hygiene like? I'm a bit jealous of how happy and at peace they are compared to America.

[@AhmadAmr98]

I saw in another documentary it goes like this: The man asks for consent from the woman to marry her,, and then he tells his mom,, and then his mom and aunties go and tell her parents, five women from the man's side,, five from the woman's. They discuss the matter, and if all is well they go out,, gather saplings and build a hut,, the girl goes into that hut, puts on a beaded necklace, starts dancing to her own singing, and just like that,, they're married. BTW that's extremely similar to middle-eastern, arab (Islamic) way of getting married. I don't know if it's always been like that, or if they'd adapted some new stuff from the modern world, or maybe those priests that keep coming around trying to convert them.. Anyway,, the documentary's name is "Hadza: The Last of the First". It's here on youtube, and it's fucking amazing.. MUST WATCH

[@husshussein556]

@@AhmadAmr98 lol hows that the Islamic way of getting married? You must be confused my g

[@BatkoBrat]

I am jealous too, they have only real problems, their minds are not burdened or polluted. When a guy asked the Hadza why don't they go to a big city and live urban lives, they said: "Isn't that the place where people jump off buildings to end their lives? Why would I want to go there?" Somebody has previously explained the concept of suicide to them and the concept of taking your own life was so foreign to them, that they remembered the big cities by it - a place where people take their own lives. Let that sink in now

Do you know if they eventually got those porcupines?

[@onelife7850]

You are speaking Swahili. So this must be somewhere in East Africa. Which country?

[@alihaitowas5657]

Diversity is such a amazing things and Allah created humans from different cultures and norms and way of living is also different and this keeps to exhibit and show and enjoy the different kinds of cultures and living. Nice to see, this people live in harmony and welcome every guest that pay a visit to their vicinity.

[@alexde3785]

wow, i really enjoyed this doc. i have two questions. Aren’t there lions where the Hadza live and if there are, aren’t lions a threat to them? I know from some African friends that cleaning teeth with branches from a specific tree is common in most areas of Africa. Do the Hadza clean their teeth?

[@olawunmi9618]

Cleaning teeth’s with a branch of leaves is common in Nigeria too .

[@snakeoveer1046]

do they wrestle or practise any form of martial/combat art ?

[@snakeoveer1046]

I wonder about how they keep from smelling bad. do they brush their teeth? how often fo they swim or wash up? do they take dust/mud baths ?

[@megaleadjp]

I saw in another doc there is a tree in Africa they call the toothbrush tree or somehtingnlike that, the branches can be made into a toothbrush.

does anyone knows if it's possible to make an arrowhead out of the porcupine's thorns?

[@Steevee14]

I think they're called QUILLS, not "thorns". Probably not suitable for arrowheads - too brittle, thin, and no barb.

Watching you dig a hole above the porcupine den reminds me of the Wayne County Michigan road workers on a job site. One man is actually doing the work, and 26 other guys are standing or sitting around doing nothing but playing pocket pool or crotch ping pong.
