Primitive Forest Tribe Meets Modern Man for the First Time (FULL)

I DIDN'T TURN OFF THE COMMENTS, KZbin DID!
as the title suggests, this is a video of when a Primitive Forest Tribe Meets Modern Man for the First Time. white people ruin everything.
It is the Toulambi tribe (The Angu or Änga people, also called Kukukuku) from
Country/Region: Papua, New Guinea.
Continent: Oceania (Australia)
Year: 1993 (1976?)
After research, i have found some information (or lack there of).
It IS possible that parts of this tribe have had contact with outsiders between 1920-1980, but there's no telling if the particular group in this video has ever seen modern man. It is clear (assuming the footage is real) that they have never seen a white man before (the way they touch him to see if he's real) and that they have not seen the modern tools he shows them. If they did have contact with the outside, it would have most likely been many years apart, possibly decades. So, not all members from that time period would still be alive. If fake, it's extremely well done. Very interesting regardless. ENJOY!!!
Update: Jan 1, 2023(happy new year!)
Found this clip with a guy on JR claiming the members of a semi-isolated tribe never met a white man before. • JRE: Native Tribes of ... of course they met Spaniards decades ago but no living member has met a white man.

It's beautiful to feel such a connection to the feeling of the skin part on such a primitive level, how the human side was everything, instinctive, and the difference in appearance was intriguing and fascinating rather than polarizing and debilitating. So much to learn from this-> Its ok to feel awkward, its about purity of kindness thats so... required for this level of communication and understanding to happen. I wish we could cultivate videos like this and present them to all our youth. It would help us nurture kindness so much more.

Notice he didnt mention them as Savages at any point, the First Nations and Native Americans were known as savages for living this way, the world should've be explored by men like this, people who great respect the culture of others

[@dougscott170]

Back in those days the word "savage" did not necessarily have the connotations of cruelty now associated with it. Instead, as an adjective, it could as easily mean "wild", as in a wildflower. You are essentially suffering from presentism, where you are using modern day moral standards or views onto people of the past who did not hold those views. For example: The term " Noble Savage" was first used in a 1609 travelogue about Canada by the French explorer Marc Lescarbot, in which there was a chapter with the heading: "The Savages are Truly Noble", meaning simply that they enjoyed the right to hunt game, a privilege in France granted only to hereditary aristocrats. Essentially stating wild men are free (wild) and have a privilege not available to regular people.

[@ericastier1646]

The big point you are missing is that has always been the French attitude at meeting other civilization. It's the english who systematically treated them as savages. Do a history search you will see but keep in mind tracks have been erased. The same thing happened in america. French and Indians had a level relation until the english turned indians against indians against French.

they seems so reasoable and smart, the way they keep the week in safety and sent their strong to investage the possible unknown threat, the way they approached with extreme caution with out escalting anything with their fear, and how they find out it's just a friendly not a threat they peacefully interact with him and wanna learn more

Probably. The only uncontacted tribes are really in the Amazon (and one random island off the coast off india because the British fucked up the first meeting and now the tribe kills any outsiders on site) mostly because experts think we might give them diseases like in the 1500s a d wipe them out. Not sure how they are doing after the Amazon fires tho, hope they didnt get fucked up

They are not poor they just don't need money to live...

[@aurourus6894]

When you introduce them to the modern world they will eventually forget how to hunt just like we did, then they'll be poor because they'll have to rely on currency to eat.

[@American-Plague]

I think you missed the point being made here that if they are taught to rely on the modern world they WILL be poor..the poorest of the poor exactly because they have no currency and no way to make any (an economy). We all understand that they don't need money to live.
