Not even close, those people have no idea what government assistance is, nor do they need it to survive.

Entering the modern world will double their life expectancy. If you think that "natural existence" is better then feel free to find somewhere remote to live and forget all technology. No cheating!

How about leaving them alone and letting them live how they choose to live? Noone is saying it's better or worse, just that it's different, and how they choose to live.

I must say I am curious though, I wonder what, if any, genetic and morphological differences there are since these groups of people have been cut off from the rest of humanity for so long.

Last of the dogmen.
Pretty cool. I think of the old white people that have problems with technology. Can't imagine the mind blowing experience it is for a tribesman.

The only question I really have about this whole scenario is, why contact them? If they are not bothering anyone, and you don't need to contact them, why do it? They are living the most natural existence on Earth, and you ruin it as soon as you set foot in front of them.

right and then some mofo snaps a shot of one with his iphone roflmao

I bet, if given the option, they would choose to live with at least some technology. I doubt anyone pulled them out of the woods and forced them to sign a contract with AT&T! heh

Love the mirror part.. freaked dude the hell out.

They were loving that rice too.

Video was cool.

[KBScobravert]

You have to wonder if they ever saw planes flying over and were at least curious.

I agree, they should be left alone. They were just fine.

This is truly an amazing video, I can see the Vikings, Christopher Columbus and Cortez meeting the local natives for the first time and those being their reactions. The native that is, I mean just think about it... WoW!!!!!

[Frank]

LOL, No matter the time or place, there is an inherent nature to not trust a white man.

It isn't how they choose to live. They don't have a choice.

^that shit pisses me the fuck off

Your avatar pisses me the fuck off. I wish to god I had never googled that. I cannot unsee what has been seen.

Sure they do. You don't think Christopher Columbus found North America by staying in Spain, or Lewis and Clark ventured to the west coast by staying on the east side of the continent do you? It's called exploration, one has to make the conscious choice to go out and explore.
