I Met Zimbabwe's Tribe with Only 2 Toes

#ad Download MoneyGram for a reliable way to send money to yourself or loved ones when traveling! Get the app here: bit.ly/3JqGNDP
I've visited dozens of indigenous tribes around the world, but no experience has been quite like this one, on the tri-country border of Zambia, Zimbabwe and Mozambique. My wife, Deanna, and I spent 2 days driving on long dirt roads to meet the Vadoma tribe, who are the only humans on earth that genetically have 2 toes on each foot.
I came here to find out their story, spread awareness about their struggles and learn what life would be like with this shocking condition. I'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments down below - have you ever heard of the Vadoma tribe? What do you think about their feet?

"The Path Guided by Gods and Buddhas O people of the world To save you, I fear not the red demon’s cruelty The truth I offer you is your hope It will help you cough up the pill of delusion you were forced to swallow Seeing Dafa [Great Law] that guides your return to heaven And hearing the Creator’s call For this you descended to the world, enduring bitter sufering Saving people amid danger is my promise This is the path guided by Gods and Buddhas Autumn 2011 *** A Song in My Heart In the depths of my heart is an ancient song Its melody flows with a longing Whenever I’m wounded, in body or heart Whenever I feel lost in my life This song I will sing in my heart, silently To kindness I hold on, and there will be hope Our home is in heaven This melody I’ll never forget Autumn 2011 *** True Words Formation-stability-degeneration-disintegration is the law Cosmic bodies will meet with disaster at the end Seeking Dafa to save beings in heavens Myriad Gods came down to the world, enduring hardship Do not miss what you’ve been awaiting for thousands of years The Creator, the Lord God, has come long ago Spreading Dafa widely and saving all beings The red demon spreads lies, churning up dust Hard to tell truth from falsity-heart is the guide Don’t you see the heavenly gate is open, after eons In delusion, you’ve forgotten who you are The truth of Dafa solves the riddle Your heavenly family is waiting Quickly board the Fa boat, shedding your human skin March 15, 2012 (Master Li Hongzhi, Hong Yin IV, from Falun Dafa teachings)

This is why a diverse gene pool is so important to prevent things like this from happening.

[@jdos5643]

What do you mean?

[@G33K01345]

@@jdos5643 Having a gene pool without diversity leads to deformities like this. Most small communities all around the world struggle with keeping the gene pool diverse and as a result have a much higher rate of defects like this. This is also why royalty (which practice incest/family intermixing) had so many deformities.

[@jdos5643]

@@G33K01345 so in other words you’re trying to say sweet home Alabama?

[@G33K01345]

@@jdos5643 Not necessarily. Most communities that are small and distant from other areas just don't have the travel of persons in and out to encourage more diverse meetings. There's also a lack of sex ed and keeping track of genealogies. Unintentional incest mostly where red states don't have an excuse.

[@BlueBookMen1000]

@@G33K01345 It's sad you had to explain that to someone. When you see common deformities like this it's always these small tribes in the middle of nowhere, where everyone is at least distantly related. Almost everyone has that gene that creates the deformity. You see this problem with small tribes in Tanzania where Albinism is common.

[@bridgetown45]

Here in the Caribbean, there was one boy in the village next door, who was born similarly, with 2 toes on each foot,and and 3 fingers on each hand. He grew up doing everything that a normal boy would do, batting and bowling well when playing cricket. His writing hand was exceptional. He was in no way handicapped.

[@777TheUniverse]

That’s beautiful to hear. I believe this condition happens though as a result of low folic acid during pregnancy. It could be that many women in this tribe are nutrient deficient on top of the defect being hereditary

[@justmejenny7986]

I believe it's from inbreeding.

[@jaymerogers8612]

Drew, there's a reason you are famous but dangit I love the respect you show to people. I'd never heard of these Zimbabwean people and had a blast watching this video, learning, and seeing you caringly share. Thanks

@@nouvel0001I agree. Mostly because my concern is that he may get bullied or the bike stolen or someone may pop the tire…something. If I were Drew, I would try to find some sponsors or buy at least 10 for the community to share. No offense Drew, I know it’s a lot when you visit people in need but can’t give everything. But singling one out when others may need this in that community may strain the one who has and definitely the ones that don’t.

Drew your wife is an amazing woman, she's hanging in there with you, without complaining, without looking funny at the lodging for the night, truly an amazing woman. The people there are also amazing. The world is such a big place, we forget that there are people in various parts of the world who don't live like us.
