look how civilised the people became when Islam entered their country. this is utterly barbaric; if these people where muslim like the majoirty of Indonesia none of these retarded rituals would would be happening. In Islam you can obviously slaughter (for food); however its forbidden to do it infront of other animals and you definitely can't make a show out of it and clap and laugh :/

[@stecher1995]

did dale announced it to youtube that he will put such a video online? i mean in youtube medical or science videos are allowed weird stuff like that, if it has nothing to do with sacrificing for fun or sexualizing and stuff like brazilian waxing you can see here too, but i am wondering, if youtuber have to announce that or something if theyre big? sorry for my bad english :D

if you ever wonder why Toraja in Indonesia is different from the rest of Indonesia, it is because they are genetically different. It has been proven in DNA results, that Torajans are mostly of Austronesian and Melanesian descent, unlike the common Indonesian DNA which is Austronesian, Cambodian and Melanesian. Javaneses and Sumatrans have Cambodian ancestry. Nowadays, you have people intermarrying, so the term of "Pure Torajan" is declining.

Still don't understand why they intentionally let the buffaloes suffer, but it's tradition i guess. For me who usually watch cow and goat sacrifices in Islam, the buffaloes in this video looks very hurt cause they don't end them quickly like the usual "qurban" in islamic tradition.

it's a Ma'nene ritual, someone isn't considered 'dead' if the family haven't do the ritual, and the family will keep the deceased body and treat them as if they're still alive (talk to them, change their clothes, offer them food) until they did the funeral ritual. it's the most expensive funeral ritual in Indonesia.

[@Meitary]

I'm used to seeing cattle slaughter from Islamic eid al-adha, yet this is still a bit too much for me. It's the slow death that's painful to watch compared to the Islamic way (severing the throat in single motion, quick death).

[@devouttt2]

Kalo qurban kan langsung dipenggal pake piso tajem kalo ini dipotongnya dikit2

[@anut8733]

I know a bit about Torajan culture, and apparently they believe that a deceased person is just ill currently resting and not truly dead before they are in the tomb. Sometimes the family lives with a dead body inside their home for months or even years before they got enough money to arrange a ceremony, casually talking and asking them as if they're still alive, and that shaking thing they do with the coffin is to 'wake up' the deceased to prepare them for their final resting place. Also, did you get to witness the Torajan version of the walking dead there which is called Ma'nene? It's a tradition where they dig up their ancestors' long deceased bodies and change their clothes.

[@Smarty9300]

What was the shit show ( throw) about ???? And one more question out of TRUE curiosity How does the body decompose in those tombs ....rock ones or sealed .... doesn't it stink or explode or something? What about diseases and stuff ? In covid how did they dispose for e.g ? As far as I know it's hot nd humid country ? Just curious

[@xi_cuan]

​@@Smarty9300 Torajans have been doing this for hundreds of years, the temperature in Toraja is cold. maybe the preservative is still natural. Now it's using chemical preservatives. it is also possible that when it stings a bit, they will be moved to a traditional house outside while waiting for the right time for the traditional Toraja funeral ceremony. and even though it has been buried according to custom, later the body will be cleaned once every three years. search on google "manene" for this epic tradition

That's why it's important to not be that pig. Even if you are going out, go out fighting.

They do try to have a quick deep cut and make the animal die fast and less pain. But the tradition only let you to have 1 strike only, and must let the rest to bleed to die, by so it also shows the skill of the algojo if he can make the buffalo die in 1 strike fast and less agony. They have to strike it while the buffalo standing, any only through the neck. The blade for it also each own algojo prepared. Usually the algojo will stand with it holding the rope till it die, so it's important to have the skill to kill it efficiently. The one they laughed at was the algojo that seems like a rocky, that can't control or efficiently kill the buffalo. I'm not a Torajanese, but I do try to search and read some their sacrifice rules and traditions. And that the general info that might answer a bit of your argument why it's harsh and brutal in a way.

And fyi, they aren't sacrificing in the name of your Abrahamic religions, these traditions has been going on since ancient times way before your Abrahamic religions even popular to the surface. If you watch the video properly Dale already mentioned that Torajan are adhered to both Abrahamic religion and their own folk beliefs, and those sacrifices are belongs to their folk beliefs not Abrahamic religion.

That's why I, as an Indonesian, hate this Toraja people's tradition. The way he killed that buffalo is really inhumane. And when I say that, there are reasons for them to justify it...That's disgusting

[@ryanbeuval3650]

Oh yeah and the pigs also

[@herv7539]

I respect people’s culture and tradition but there’s a faster way of killing it. You can also stick to tradition while treating animals with dignity and respect rather than kicking them while they are bleeding out.

[@hexxbans3726]

that's cruel way to kill animals. it's a shame.

[@Dan-78]

As a guy from the UK my jaw dropped seeing this happen, i respect the way they live and their traditions but jeez

[@rhen7885]

39:45 ... That person was just joking and what he said was not harsh and dirty words. ... Don't offend Dale... that guy won't hurt you. ... I'm Toraja.

[@irfanambarita3795]

Im really addicted to your videos, Yer man!, keep healthty 🙏

[@drakonator1394]

I don’t care what ritual this is I fucking hate seeing people laugh and clap after brutally killing a family of buffalo’s.

[@xwiyaz2314]

exactly

[@sendmeyourlocation1145]

Family of buffalo lmfao i don't think that they have this consept of family

[@sahanbimsara3905]

Can't imagine , who are the real animals

[@jamielew]

what an eye opener. I am lost for words and that is a first. Totally love how real and raw your vlogs are. Interested and definitely educational. Best vlogger around. Fantastic. Hard watch at first.

[@Change765]

Nah bro! I’ve seen their videos!! Nothing close to respect. It’s a massacre…. They grab a dagger and start slashing the. Wherever… killing it with not even one hit… and breaking their leg and being very abruptly abusive to the innocent animals… it’s mental…

[@popyneli5235]

Hop you really happy to come to tana toraja ❤thank bro for come to my town god bles you

[@pal3090]

Yer man a wee bit funny.. Aye. Dear Dale.. I am on a Dale philip- video watching spree.. Binge watching your videos.. Just finish your Indonesia orangutan video.. Amazing.. Hilarious.. I don't need Amazon Prime or Netflix.. Dale is enough to entertain me.. 😂❤ ur new subscriber from India.. i am showing your videos to my mom tooo 😊

[@navusx]

I am guessing the traditional funeral rituals has modernized and evolved somewhat differently from what it used to be especially with the younger generations. Managed to watch all the way through while it's still there, tough call but appreciate the gutsy move.

[@brandymercado6593]

This was so hard to watch but i appreciate these videos ! Dale is such a good guy

[@nizarmazlan]

Thanks for brought this experience to us. Really unique and never seen this before.

[@StrykerBoiiz]

Dale this one is the most interesting and intense journey you've taken us on yet. Thank you

[@user-pi6tn2dp8v]

Iam from India.i like u r videos very enthusiastic.

[@thatiam1]

Look at the child how he behaves to that pig this is not normal this is not even a religious sacrifice they are barbaric morons these people need to be stopped

[@reyvnblacc]

What a sick tradition to kill an animal like that. Poor thing had to suffer because some degenerate humans have a stupid ritual. When i see stuff like that it fuels my hate towards humans even more.

[@christinahaswell8468]

It's so important that we stay open minded about other cultures who differ so much from our own. This may be so difficult to watch but only bc majority of people get their "meats" from a cold cooler in a supermarket. Most don't get to see the slaughter houses where 1,000's are killed everyday to support the mass demand. Here, where they are in this video, eating meat 🍖 like they're about to is a very special occasion to honor the passing of a loved one. The entire community will feast and celebrate life. Another thing...countries like this don't have NEARLY the amount of food waste as we have in the states. We waste so much for no significant reason and most forget the value of food and where it comes from and we lose our appreciation for such luxury ✨️ ❤

[@e.t.h.559]

but this is not how animals are killed in the states, this is very inhumane, and there aren’t any spectators, cheering and clapping when the animals are slaughtered, as if it is some kind of achievement to do that.

[@nicetas2344]

​@@e.t.h.559kept crying lil boy, we dont give an f to you outsiders

[@ladyface7903]

Why the fk does the man stab the pig three times in random places before doing it in the place that eventually kills the pig???!!!!! This is absolutely horrific....... evil evil people. And the kid kicking and hurting the pig while its lying dying???? That pig went through so much unnecessary suffering. I have researched about this practice and it states 'Once the pigs are quickly killed with a single sharp knife under their arm into the heart......' This is not what happened here, I hope they burn in hell!

[@Jack72961]

Cheering the torture of an animal bleeding out… there’s better ways to do it

[@xi_cuan]

I'm not toraja people. But this never i see when visit Rantepao. Great, Thank for your video dale.

[@henridenafel]

okay look, im not in any capacity to say this, nor i have the right because im not a torajan myself, but i think this kind of cruelty needs to be banned. the way they're killing those animals was like for sport, not for a ceremony, not for a party, let alone a funeral. i have huge respect for traditions and culture, especially those of my own country but this is too much. Im not gonna highlight the obvious buffalo killing, but take this one for example 11:48, bro literally pulled the poking game with the pig as if he was toying around until it's slow and painful death..like was it even necessary? OR....OR.....hear me out...was it even in the original ritual? (serious question)

[@samuellambertmurrayduncan1412]

Everybody needs to know that this also happens here, just not during a ritual but in machines called slaughterhouses. Millions of animals met year. We just don't see it. If you find this hard to watch then consider cutting down on meat

[@arunchaturvedi1960]

It must have been hard with that video to just give a very impartial reportage and education about Toraya culture to your audience without being judgemental. You managed it beautifully. Hats off to you Dale!

[@Giordifer]

Your respect for traditions is what makes you such a great vlogger. This was hard to watch though.
