Michael has to be the king of “wrong place, wrong time”. Imagine swimming 12 miles, making it to shore, only to be killed by an indigenous tribe who believes killing and consuming you would be vengeance for what the Dutch did to them 3 years prior. Plus 12 hours after you leave, the capsized boat was found and everyone else was saved. That has to be the worst timing in the history of ever.

Yes! Cannibalism is equal to Artificial Intelligence. How? If A.I. doesn’t mass murder us humans, us humans ought to mass murder & eat other humans. I would love to capture a Rockefeller or a Soros child & eat them for lunch. Kidnap their offspring, have sex with them & take their body parts one quartering at a time. A dash of the finest cognac w/white trash wealth posh hands for the beckoning. Eating wealthy humans would be such a delicacy. They eat the finest of foods & consume the finest of spirits. Equivalent to eating veal before it’s maturity rate into adulthood. Splendid spleens of wealthy famous humans.

[@VeniVidiVici456]

True. Another Truth: Indigenous tribes are no more virtuous than the reverse racist narrative peddled by CRT, BLM, and virtue signalling progressives. The concept of the savage indian certainly applues as well. Now THAT is an Inconvenient Truth that should cause you virtur signalling, SJW to run and seek a safe space from reality.

[@LB-uo7xy]

I wonder if this is the same insane spin he would put on if the cannibal was someone of WHITE EUROPEAN DESCENT like ANY AMERICAN SERIAL KILLER/CANNIBAL. I'M SURE THERE'S NO ANTI-EUROPEAN COLONIAL BIAS in the LITERAL POSITIVE SPIN ON CANNIBALISM HE PUTS. Both Ted Bundy and Jeffrey Dahmer committed CANNIBALISM to have the bodies of the ones they destroyed with them and part of them forever for purely selfish reasons. Why aren't THEY getting the good positive publicity for what THEY DID? You're showing your RACISM if you say it's because they're WHITE and therefore should be beheld to a higher standard. Just because cannibalism is not part of European culture doesn't mean it can't be part of a specific person of European descent's culture.

I'm pretty sure both theories are true. If he was found by a tribe that was friendly with him from his time on the island and integrated with them for some time (long enough to have appeared on that film), he very well could have gotten involved in a tribal skirmish, been killed, and summarily eaten as was the custom

[@grantlong6586]

The part that doesn't make sense to me is why they would use his bones for spear heads if they viewed him as an enemy. I remember learning that they would mainly use cassowary bones, and when they did make bone spears and daggers they would use the bones of their father or a warrior from their tribe. The whole point of using human bones was to gain the power of the person who died.

[@GoatedBradley]

@@grantlong6586 I’d assume since they viewed outsiders as “spirits” they would use his bones to gain the power of the spirits

[@amandawright5163]

im p sure it was a different tribe he came across, they all had the same customs but they werent rlly acquainted with the guy

[@readein]

I think "pretty sure" is a large stretch. These people were weary of white people and had issues communicating with them. I think it'd be strange for them to take one in under any circumstance at the time. Not to mention one blurry picture is the only evidence that points to him joining the tribe. The photo to me looks like an albino tribesman. I'm not going to say it's completely impossible, but the facts support him either dying in the storm, or being eaten by the cannibals. Also if he truly did survive don't you think he'd make some effort to reach out to say he's alright, or at the very least try to get help to the boat he left in the water? He would've had plenty of opportunities to talk to the white people on the island throughout the remainder of his life. In order to believe that he joined the tribe, you'd also have to believe: he survived the storm, was found by tribesmen, the tribesmen took him to their village, he was able to communicate with them atleast semi-fluently without an interpreter, gave no attempt to help the boat he left, was able to gain the tribe's trust, wanted to spend his life with them, avoided white men for the rest of his life, had no interest in letting his family/the world know he was alive, and also convinced anyone who knew about him in the tribe not to tell anyone. With how enamored the tribes are with legends/passing down history; I think it's unlikely that a white man making his way through the ranks wouldn't be passed down in legend, or atleast become a rumor. Especially if if he died a warrior's death like you assumed. Idk man I'm a huge believer in Occom's razor and believing that with practically no evidence requires an insane amount of assumptions. Most of which aren't very likely to have happened at the time.

Tribes like this have verbal histories they pass down for generations, it’s unlikely they wouldn’t remember and pass down a story that’s important to them. Rockefeller made an impression on them so they’d make sure to pass that story down.

[@Iudicatio]

Yes I hate how everyone in the story, even Wendigoon himself, assume that the fact they don't write anything down means that they can not remember things accurately. Your ability to remember things accurately actually decreases when you learn to read. I have a friend who didn't know how to read for a large portion of his life and he has the whole Quran memorized, even though he doesn't speak Arabic much and isn't educated. I was also reading an interesting book recently about how Indian singers memorize long epics (like hundreds of thousands of lines) when they don't know how to read. I sure couldn't do something like that lol.

[@yosephbuitrago897]

Lynn R no but when things are told verbally they get changed slightly with each telling and they get dramatized. When things are written down from the original yelling they stay that way. It is a very well known and well observed occurrence. Sure, this event will remain in the local populations memory for a long time through story telling, but many details will be changed over time and the original story will not be the same as the a possible version in the future. Things like rituals and hymns and holy books as you described are different in this case. Those can be remembered straight from memory word for word because they are always told to the younger generations the same exact way since they are religiously important and are carefully kept concise, unlike everyday stories.

[@iago110]

@@yosephbuitrago897 as much as it gets dramatized the fact that Michael Rockefeller died by their tribe's hands is a constant, how he died and when might be lost, but it's good to trust their oral tradition, take Iliad and Odyssey by Homer, both were orally told before being written

[@omarb7164]

@@yosephbuitrago897 a counterpoint is that there’s not much to change about this particular narrative. In verbal tradition of Native Americans many stories are shared and e.g. origin stories could be near identical between two neighboring tribes, but each tribe would have centered themselves in the story even if the same story otherwise appears widely. Not too sure on the details but I believe the competing Incan ruling families also agreed on the exact same ancestry story except they each believed themselves to be the true descendants. Whereas in this story, you have a pretty insulated island, beliefs of white spirits, and the jist of it is that a white man appeared and was killed. I don’t see much potential to transform the story, especially with the group nature of indigenous islander that viewed white people as such a strong contrast. So I agree that oral stories tend to change but in this instance I don’t really see how.

I actually lived in Papua New Guinea, and got to go interior with missionaries into the tribes. Of course I was going to tribes that had dropped ways of cannibalism, but I actually got to talk with an old man through a translator about how he had eaten people from neighboring tribes. To have gotten the chance to actually sit on the ground with that man and take in the culture with my own experience was life changing.

[@nobodyburgen4594]

Please elaborate. This sounds fascinating.

[@kingofpilgrims368]

@@nobodyburgen4594 Gladly, my parents after retiring had decided to go into missionary work, and had one day my freshmen year of high school asked how I felt about living overseas. My first response was “can we live in a rainforest?” And that was my only criteria. (We actually we’re on a fence between being sent to Indonesia or Italy, and I still wanted the former.) My parents worked under MAF in Sentani, Indonesia on the island of Java for a year, and we later moved even further interior into Papua. At my high school there they had this incredible trip planned for the whole school at the end of the year where we would all pack up bags, leave our phones, and move into interior villages for two weeks every year. In the villages we would either help the people with basic tasks, learn about their stories, or even get the chance to help build housing or dig water passageways to keep the runways safe for the airplanes. These areas were quite literally only accessible by plane, or by 3 week treks on feet through the mountains which is what all the tribes people do out there. One of these trips my senior year, we went to I believe the village of Pogapa, where I got to take part in a ceremony called a Bakar Bantu. They kill a pig and then bury a large hole in the ground. They layer it with leaves, vegetables, the pig in it’s entirety, and flat stones that they have set over fires. These rocks which they pick up with their bare hands are well over 100 degrees Fahrenheit, but these people have such incredible and callous hands that it doesn’t even bother them. They bury it with dirt and then hours later, we dig up and feast. I got the chance to eat a pig testicle with my homie lmao. But the whole time in this, I’m just sitting around all these people, who are speaking a language I’m loosely interpreting and have only learned three dozen words of, but despite that they still treated me as if I was family. It’s incredible how welcoming and caring these people are, as well as how willing they were to just share everything they had. My time in those tribes only amounts to about a month and a half of my life, but they were the most influential and life changing points I think I’ll ever experience.

Well I guess later that night they wanted him to lay down on a mat and came in with the same bamboo tube. He was armed with a .45 and after several hours of a literal stare down, they made a move and he shot several of them then ran off into the jungle. He ended up running into a Aussie special forces group who brought him to a larger base with a airfield. He left the airfield in a plane piloted by an Aussie but that one even crashed.
