[@RegulareoldNorseBoy]

@@BrassMtn Is just that it would be more comical if it was correct that's all. You already know stone age men didn't have the wheel :-D Even the ancient Egyptians did not have that. The wheel was unknown in Egypt before the Hyksos invasion, probably in the 17th century BC. Before that, things were either carried by hand, with pack animals, or by boat. Ssure '' wheels '' was invented in this time period, even in cultures defined as living in the stone age, but nobody ever had upright standing wheeled scooters in the stone age. That's some Hollywood fantasy right there :-D

In the 1400s, Europe and Asia already were technologically advanced enough to travel the world, while Africa had barely any technology. At some point in history, every people had nothing, but they pushed forward and built the world we have today while Africa froze in time. They didn't wait for handouts. And it's not like Africa didn't have recourses because it most certainly had. It's not feeling, it's FACTS. And even this "Chukudu was invented by a European 💀

Wikipedia: The chukudu was invented by Pedro Sarracayo in 1972. Saracayo, a Portuguese national, lived in Angola between 1966 and 1975, in the town of Uige, North Angola, and close to the Congolese border (Zaire River). As a young man, Pedro recognised the need for local transportation of heavy goods on foot, subsequently inventing the Chukudu.

Trees were felled, probably using gasoline two-stroke powered chainsaws and tools, and transported, probably by diesel truck (or worse, two-stroke dirt bike like later in the vid), to provide the lumber; rubber was processed and manufactured into the tires (at least they're recycling, but still); steel springs don't grow on trees - they were made using furnaces in a factory that is probably powered by coal; the type of gasoline powered scooter they're using to tow these back uphill have terrible emissions, and by towing so much weight the mileage will be abysmal at best. Let's get real - this is hardly a "pollution free" solution. Is it convenient and a far more efficient use of manpower and time? Absolutely !
