Pitcairn Island (Adamstown) - Lonely but beautiful

Adamstown is the only settlement on the Pitcairn Islands.
The Pitcairn Islands are the last British Overseas Territory in the South Pacific Ocean.
Of the four islands only Pitcairn is inhabited. At the time of filming there were only 48 permanent inhabitants. Accordings to the World Factbook Pitcairn is the least populous national jurisdiction in the world.
The island is inhabited mostly by descendants of the Bounty mutineers, as retold in many books and films.

Place is a pedophiles haven. In 2004 half the island's adult males were arrested for raping underage girls. And to prove how messed up that place is. Underage means under 12 there, and breaking that has a sentence of 100 days in the chalet they built for a prison. 31 woman testified. Even the mayor was involved. www.google.com/amp/s/www.independent.co.uk/news/world/australasia/pitcairn-the-island-of-fear-424862.html%3famp

Especially since it wasn't the whole community, let's just blame them all for fun. Hell, Nadine Christian has 5 kids, (pretty sure she's the Mayor's wife if I'm correct but she's a citizen) and i definitely think she would rather keep her children safe. Oh wait no, because nobody there cares about kids huh?

There are like 47 people on that Island I doubt most if not all people knew about it. Second chances mean nothing you cannot stop being a paedophile its their nature. The British government should just take the children and through the adults into the sea.

To a landlubber like me who is used to living in the Nevada desert this place looks so beautiful, lush and frankly scary. Being all alone and surrounded by water with no lifeline if you are severely injured or very ill are things that i could not get used to. If you are born and raised on this island or other secluded islands, you have gotten used to these conditions and would probably hate living where most of us live. I am a person who loves to get away from crowds, but this is too much for me. Beautiful, but forbidding.

Dark troubled history and uncertain future aside, this is a beautiful collection of footage. Not a person in sight, just island flora and roads and remnants from the Bounty. Filmed from different heights around the island, they offer many different views of homes and the sea. Pitcairn's dwindling work force (and no future births) may compel the remaining islanders to relocate to New Zealand, so pictures and filming might as well continue while there is still opportunity.

Ikr, how do those people survive in general? With already population of just 50 inhabitants, and if they run out of food there, it's gonne take Britain a while to export food there, since it's so remote. Maybe one day I'll set foot on this tropical island and find out the answer, but getting might be a little tricky...

@UnderSun If it's not hypocritical, which I'm not sure it is or isn't, it's at least ironic. May or may not be helpful to point out. I think it's helpful to point out because I tend to err on the side of everyone sucks, reality is cruel, and I should murder everyone and commit suicide, and then I think, why not use these enormous powers of reasoning for good?
