The Dinka, Nuer and the Luo ( Anyuak, Acholi, Chollo/Shilluk, Peri etc) are the tallest in the World. These tribes descended from one ancestor. They call themselves; "Jie" meaning, Humanbeings. According to many writings. They are the giants that were wrongly said to have extincted. Because of hundreds of years of separation, their language have evolved but still they share a lot of words such as: Fire, cow, sky, earth, Sun, moon etc. They were the last group, together with the Nubians, to leave Egypt. The term "Nilotic" which had become their common name is derived from the fact that these tribes are found along the Nile...they are people of the Nile so to speak.

@@AfriasporaFilms you are right but not only Wolof people are tall in Senegal, You can find tall people among the Fulbe ( Fulani) and other tribes. I think it has something to do with regions inside the country.
Am from South Sudan “Nuer” and I am so proud of my all tribes specifically Dinka for scoring 1 in this video. We have a tribe known as “Shilluk” they are tall along side the Nuer and the Dinka tribes . Am disappointed though, u have not played a Nuer song in the video. U have played a Dinka song instead when it’s supposed to be Nuer’s😟, please next time avoid this mistake.
I watched this video in awe as I’m south Afrikan and recognized all the traditional regalia and native attires worn throughout Afrika some identical and some identical 👏🏾👏🏾! We truly are the children of the Nile civilization! There’s no way that people near Sudan would wear and dance like the Xitsonga of South Afrika yet they were never related ❤️❤️❤️👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾!!!
Actually the average eight of Dinka people 5,119 ft which means that the tallest group of people in the world are the Dutch with an average of 6ft. Proportionally speaking the Dutch are the tallest men on the planet in terms of how many (per capita) men are above 6ft are opposed to Dinka per Capita. But it is arguable that the tallest group of people in the world might also be the Tutsi of Rwanda. Unfortunately because of the Hutu and Tutsi conflict and the massacre of the Tutsi by the Hutus it is impossible today to have a proper average, since over 600 000 Tutsi were slaughtered by Hutus. My mother spent a year and a half with the Tutsi 20 years before the genocide because she worked for the UNESCO and was documenting and recording Tutsi culture, language and traditions, theology, genetics, etc, ... When the conflict started she was on the first plane there because she knew what was going to happen. When she came back 2 months later with 3673 refugee Tutsis she was a ghost and didn't talk for 4 months and was hospitalized in an institution for weeks. When she finally started talking it was to tell what she saw. It was like if hell had come to earth. She lost any bit of respect she still had for mankind. What the Hutus did would not even be shown in the most illegal website on the dark web. Not even animals are this violent. The fact remain that the Dinka or the Dutch or the Tutsi might be the tallest people on earth but this is really impossible to determinate because so many tribes are still yet to be studied, because we have no idea what already disappeared due to human stupidity or natural catastrophes, or what is yet to come. But at the end of the day, size means nothing. I am over 7ft tall which makes me taller than the average tallest people on the planet (i am not Dutch, i am Half Iceland, half Japanese) and it means nothing, except sometimes some back pain and nothing fitting around me or on me unless i have it order made for me. Just because you are tall doesn't make you better than anyone. Hutus are a very tall tribe and they are absolute monsters and what they did can not even be taught in books for the next generations. Since your channel is about Africa, this is definitely a topic you should cover.
@Plague Sentry I don't even consider Germans to have been monsters in the 40s. I am half Japanese, so Germans were allies not enemies and my Japanese family is originally from Nagasaki so you can imagine who are the monsters to me. Just because your books make 1940s Germans the bad guys doesn't mean we all believe so.
Damn ! I feel for your mother ! I guess what we see in movies about the Tutsi massacre is still very far below the atrocities that took place there 😢 ! It's a sight to repulse anyone from mankind altogether and make him live in total reclusion ! So sad really !
Thank you for sharing. I knew a pilot while I was in the Air Force who was half Japanese half Dutch. 6”1 and he look very Caucasian with the Oriental eyes.
Some Senegalese (Wollof?) and Malian tribes (generally Sahelian people) are very tall as well, mostly herdsmen. Somethkng about the rich milk & meat diet.
Yes the Fulani, Wolof and Serer are very tall and slim. But Fulani’s are lighter. The Hausa are very tall as well, but some of them have Fulani blood, and they also have Kanembu (Nilo-Saharan) and Sao (Chadic) ancestry as well so this increases their height.
Dear people of the.world, we are one people, just different locations. That's all. We all came from one source. We all share one parents..Adam and Eve. Stay blessed.
Shilluks are more taller than Anuak. Nuɛ̈r should be the second. Dinka and Nuer have no differences. It's only language that differentiates them. They're also tall like Dinka. You have also forgotten Mundari tribe of South Sudan. They're very tall too.
Thanks you so much for your comment@MJ Media, please your comment denoted that you really know South Sudanese tribe. 100% , Mr/Mrs poster can mind to redo the work otherwise it is not reliable but biased
This is why a lot of tribes in Africa got themselves conquered because of the diversity of their language and different triditions in their culture.. In order to keep this event from ever happening again, Africa and it's people have to come together economicly, socially and militarily.otherwise the same thing will happen again. This time with the Chinese.
I am Dinka and truly Nuer are all the same as Dinka !! The only difference between the two is the language!! There’s no way Maasai will come even before Nuer!! Most Nilotics Shiluk, Anyuak, Mundari are all tall as well ...!!
I am 6.4 and born in Panama. According to 23 & me, Ancestry DNA, My Heritage, FTDNA, etc., 51% of my genome is African; 44% West African (mostly Yoruba), and 7% from East Africa. I also have 30% of European genome (Spanish, English, Scandinavian, Russian, Lithuanian, Jew Asquenazi, Etectera). And I also have 16% of indigenous genome from the Ngabe Bugle tribe in Panama, and 3% Chinese genome. My paternal haplogroup is Scandinavian (I-M253), and my maternal haplogroup (mitochondrial), is indigenous Ngabe Bugle of Panama. (B2D).
If you read the Bible you will find those giants were called Nephlim and they and their offspring were wiped out during the flood of Noah. So their genes did not survive in anyone after them.
Wolof people of Senegal are tall they look like South Sudanese , lot of Senegalese boys played in the nba and are above 213 cm or 7ft . In Dakar a lot of girl are above 175cm ... They are among the tallest tribe in the world .
Isaiah 18 talks of this Nilotic group of people. Their parent tree of origin is Ham so they could be referred to as Nilo-Hamites. They have cousins among others cushites which embrace Ethiopians and Somalis . In addition to this there are the shotter versions emanating from probably intermarriages. They have evolved along Nile civilization through time. Iam one of them and hardly nearvtheir average height of 6'.....😁..lam 5'3"🙈. A dwarf among them, a midget but one of them nuers dinka or shiluk! The great Kenya long distant runners are them leave alone the maasai. There is alot you can pick common in their language. They share some words. A great effort in this video kudos👍
Isaiah is talking about Hebrews! The so-called Dinka, we call ourselves Monyjang meaning "Men of men" or "Lords of Men" are direct descendants of ancient Israelites. And our brothers and sisters so called Nuer, they called themselves Naath are always Hebrews. Both Monyjang and Naath culture and religious practices are exactly as the ancient Israelites. Hence, in Isaiah 18 God is calling his chosen people. And I beleive that Maasai and Tutsi are also Children of Israel!
Wow!!! This is great!!! I’m trying to find my tribe due to my height. Wait. Look at the regal Tutsi tribe! My goodness!!! Man! Look at the Dinkas! They leap as elegant as gazelles!!! I seriously think I have Dinka in my roots. I love seeing African tribes and speculating which tribes I am a combination of, as an American Black person. Thanks for the video!
Well South-Sudanese or Nilote's were not enslaved...Yeah there's some West-African's with Nilotic ancestry who we're like Some Senegalese people & some Gambian tribes . So practically you cannot have their blood because you don't even have their features.
I'm East-African so I've got substantial Proto-Nilote DNA hence i got the forehead from them and also my height and long limbs especially legs from my Nilotic ancestors 😂
Nilote's are very tough so it's almost impossible for them to be sold as captives by other African's or raiders...They're one of the strongest and realest so we got that from them too they are warrior's.

Thank you for the video, but I advise you to visit Senegal 🇸🇳 next time before you make your conclusion!
Was thinking the same thing. Wolof are known for their height.
@@AfriasporaFilms you are right but not only Wolof people are tall in Senegal, You can find tall people among the Fulbe ( Fulani) and other tribes. I think it has something to do with regions inside the country.
I just love Sudanese people's heights. Am 5"5 myself.......😁
Same as me
Am from South Sudan “Nuer” and I am so proud of my all tribes specifically Dinka for scoring 1 in this video. We have a tribe known as “Shilluk” they are tall along side the Nuer and the Dinka tribes .
Am disappointed though, u have not played a Nuer song in the video. U have played a Dinka song instead when it’s supposed to be Nuer’s😟, please next time avoid this mistake.
Thanks for the feedback! I didn't realize it was a Nuer song until I uploaded it.
@@AfroArtistaFilms All songs are wrong but still good 👍.
@@dengkuot81 Apologies I'm Kenyan I cant distinguish the Nuer and Dinka languages.
@@AfroArtistaFilms PLEASE DON'T NEEDS to Apologize for that and YOU ARE doing fantastic job brother.
Bro Nuer and Dinka have are the same so u guys have similar language so yeah
Beautiful skin, teeth, , hair, height.
Just beautiful all around. God bless
them in the name of Jesus. Amen.
Hayi!!!!!!!! Africa's greatest and beautiful 🌹👍👍💯💯🇿🇦🇿🇦😄🌞,sibahle futhi siphiwe lesi isibusiso nice one 💐💐💮💮🌸🌸💖💖
As I'm a Dinka am so proud of it 👏
Well I am 6:2 in , and from Southern Sudan. Keep up good work.
I watched this video in awe as I’m south Afrikan and recognized all the traditional regalia and native attires worn throughout Afrika some identical and some identical 👏🏾👏🏾! We truly are the children of the Nile civilization! There’s no way that people near Sudan would wear and dance like the Xitsonga of South Afrika yet they were never related ❤️❤️❤️👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾!!!
My late best friend are from somalia he’s very tall and funny always make everyone happy around him miss him 😢
What happened to him? And where did u meet him?
Kenya we are blessed 🥰🥰🥰... infact... Africans we are special 🥰🥰🥰🥰, unique,
Singing and dancing! Singing and dancing! Singing and dancing!
The fun never stops!
Now I miss how I grew up in R valley kenya and different tribes used to perform their traditional dance songs.
Rigt valley Tanzania you mean?
whats the songs name at 02:07 ?
Actually the average eight of Dinka people 5,119 ft which means that the tallest group of people in the world are the Dutch with an average of 6ft. Proportionally speaking the Dutch are the tallest men on the planet in terms of how many (per capita) men are above 6ft are opposed to Dinka per Capita.
But it is arguable that the tallest group of people in the world might also be the Tutsi of Rwanda. Unfortunately because of the Hutu and Tutsi conflict and the massacre of the Tutsi by the Hutus it is impossible today to have a proper average, since over 600 000 Tutsi were slaughtered by Hutus.
My mother spent a year and a half with the Tutsi 20 years before the genocide because she worked for the UNESCO and was documenting and recording Tutsi culture, language and traditions, theology, genetics, etc, ... When the conflict started she was on the first plane there because she knew what was going to happen. When she came back 2 months later with 3673 refugee Tutsis she was a ghost and didn't talk for 4 months and was hospitalized in an institution for weeks. When she finally started talking it was to tell what she saw.
It was like if hell had come to earth. She lost any bit of respect she still had for mankind. What the Hutus did would not even be shown in the most illegal website on the dark web. Not even animals are this violent.
The fact remain that the Dinka or the Dutch or the Tutsi might be the tallest people on earth but this is really impossible to determinate because so many tribes are still yet to be studied, because we have no idea what already disappeared due to human stupidity or natural catastrophes, or what is yet to come.
But at the end of the day, size means nothing. I am over 7ft tall which makes me taller than the average tallest people on the planet (i am not Dutch, i am Half Iceland, half Japanese) and it means nothing, except sometimes some back pain and nothing fitting around me or on me unless i have it order made for me. Just because you are tall doesn't make you better than anyone. Hutus are a very tall tribe and they are absolute monsters and what they did can not even be taught in books for the next generations.
Since your channel is about Africa, this is definitely a topic you should cover.
@Plague Sentry I don't even consider Germans to have been monsters in the 40s. I am half Japanese, so Germans were allies not enemies and my Japanese family is originally from Nagasaki so you can imagine who are the monsters to me.
Just because your books make 1940s Germans the bad guys doesn't mean we all believe so.
Damn ! I feel for your mother ! I guess what we see in movies about the Tutsi massacre is still very far below the atrocities that took place there 😢 !
It's a sight to repulse anyone from mankind altogether and make him live in total reclusion ! So sad really !
You haven't seen the average DINKA, I'M 6.2 ft and am the average high in my family.
@@majokdit3263he has through his mother.
Thank you for sharing. I knew a pilot while I was in the Air Force who was half Japanese half Dutch. 6”1 and he look very Caucasian with the Oriental eyes.
So beautiful 🥰 my people are so beautiful - Greetings from Ghana 😃👍
6.5 and I’m Somali
🇸🇴🇪🇹🇩🇯🇪🇷
Some Senegalese (Wollof?) and Malian tribes (generally Sahelian people) are very tall as well, mostly herdsmen. Somethkng about the rich milk & meat diet.
because they're nilo-Saharan
Yes the Fulani, Wolof and Serer are very tall and slim. But Fulani’s are lighter. The Hausa are very tall as well, but some of them have Fulani blood, and they also have Kanembu (Nilo-Saharan) and Sao (Chadic) ancestry as well so this increases their height.
I love my African people and want to visit them in Africa so badly.
Man I’m so envious of these guys
Dear people of the.world, we are one people, just different locations. That's all. We all came from one source. We all share one parents..Adam and Eve. Stay blessed.
Adam on eve is a Bible. Story for children

Great video thanks you
Shilluks are more taller than Anuak. Nuɛ̈r should be the second. Dinka and Nuer have no differences. It's only language that differentiates them. They're also tall like Dinka. You have also forgotten Mundari tribe of South Sudan. They're very tall too.
Yes, you have hinted some key points that should have been considered
They all the same , all nilots
Thanks you so much for your comment@MJ Media, please your comment denoted that you really know South Sudanese tribe.
100% , Mr/Mrs poster can mind to redo the work otherwise it is not reliable but biased
This is why a lot of tribes in Africa got themselves conquered because of the diversity of their language and different triditions in their culture.. In order to keep this event from ever happening again, Africa and it's people have to come together economicly, socially and militarily.otherwise the same thing will happen again. This time with the Chinese.
I am Dinka and truly Nuer are all the same as Dinka !! The only difference between the two is the language!! There’s no way Maasai will come even before Nuer!! Most Nilotics Shiluk, Anyuak, Mundari are all tall as well ...!!
I am 6.4 and born in Panama. According to 23 & me, Ancestry DNA, My Heritage, FTDNA, etc., 51% of my genome is African; 44% West African (mostly Yoruba), and 7% from East Africa. I also have 30% of European genome (Spanish, English, Scandinavian, Russian, Lithuanian, Jew Asquenazi, Etectera). And I also have 16% of indigenous genome from the Ngabe Bugle tribe in Panama, and 3% Chinese genome. My paternal haplogroup is Scandinavian (I-M253), and my maternal haplogroup (mitochondrial), is indigenous Ngabe Bugle of Panama. (B2D).
You are a wonderful cocktail of DNA analysis 😊😊😊😊 you have to be recorded in the guineas book of world records
Do you have a Jamaican heritage too?
@@jobnaman3652 Indeed. 😄
@@maryjs4878 Yes, I do. My grandfather (paternal line) came to Panamá from Jamaica. How do you Know?
@@ericksimpson1359 cool.
Oh i read about the Jamaicans being in Panama.
Their legs are longer than my entire body💙 I'm a whopping 5'2😅🤦
🤣
Shout to dinka people for being the tallest people in the world we the African gains
I have tall pygmy tribe height (Gabon/Equatorial Guinea) but my leap would make the Maasai proud!! LOL
Anybody who can get me the artist and title of the track at -5:38
Please, thank you.
Proud of being South Sudanes
Biblical times we read about giants roaming the earth. Africa always marks the spot
If you read the Bible you will find those giants were called Nephlim and they and their offspring were wiped out during the flood of Noah. So their genes did not survive in anyone after them.
Oh wow... ok
Wolof people of Senegal are tall they look like South Sudanese , lot of Senegalese boys played in the nba and are above 213 cm or 7ft . In Dakar a lot of girl are above 175cm ... They are among the tallest tribe in the world .
Making a video about them as we speak.
This is amazing.
I am a short Somalian at 5.5 m, but 98% of my family is over 6 feet 4.
Abayo wxa kuweydina meqa waye qiyasta gabdhaha somalida height koda
@Naomi in somalia 5'5 is just everage or below everage
@Naomi no every country ia not the same in usa 5'5is above the everage europe 5'6 is everage so 5'5 is below the the everage in one inch

4:03 the song playing (for the Nuer) in the background is a Dinka song.
What is the name of that song?
Am Rwandan 🇷🇼
God bless 🙏 to Nilotic people
Why does 6:30 sound like some song I heard in a Chinese movie 😆
I think it will be better to say the tallest tribe in East Africa, most of the tribes in sengalGambia region of west africa are very tall...
Yes Senegalese are very tall
Great video!
Isaiah 18 talks of this Nilotic group of people.
Their parent tree of origin is Ham so they could be referred to as Nilo-Hamites.
They have cousins among others cushites which embrace Ethiopians and Somalis . In addition to this there are the shotter versions emanating from probably intermarriages.
They have evolved along Nile civilization through time.
Iam one of them and hardly nearvtheir average height of 6'.....😁..lam 5'3"🙈.
A dwarf among them, a midget but one of them nuers dinka or shiluk!
The great Kenya long distant runners are them leave alone the maasai.
There is alot you can pick common in their language.
They share some words.
A great effort in this video kudos👍
Isaiah is talking about Hebrews! The so-called Dinka, we call ourselves Monyjang meaning "Men of men" or "Lords of Men" are direct descendants of ancient Israelites. And our brothers and sisters so called Nuer, they called themselves Naath are always Hebrews. Both Monyjang and Naath culture and religious practices are exactly as the ancient Israelites. Hence, in Isaiah 18 God is calling his chosen people. And I beleive that Maasai and Tutsi are also Children of Israel!
Wow!!! This is great!!! I’m trying to find my tribe due to my height. Wait. Look at the regal Tutsi tribe! My goodness!!! Man! Look at the Dinkas! They leap as elegant as gazelles!!! I seriously think I have Dinka in my roots. I love seeing African tribes and speculating which tribes I am a combination of, as an American Black person.
Thanks for the video!
Have you had your Ancestry DNA test yet?
Well South-Sudanese or Nilote's were not enslaved...Yeah there's some West-African's with Nilotic ancestry who we're like Some Senegalese people & some Gambian tribes . So practically you cannot have their blood because you don't even have their features.
I'm East-African so I've got substantial Proto-Nilote DNA hence i got the forehead from them and also my height and long limbs especially legs from my Nilotic ancestors 😂
Nilote's are very tough so it's almost impossible for them to be sold as captives by other African's or raiders...They're one of the strongest and realest so we got that from them too they are warrior's.
You're most likely from Senegal or have Senegalese ancestry if you're tall. Tribes like Wolof and Soninke are very tall you can search them up
I'm 6.5 and I'm Nuer from (South Sudan.)
👋 I am six feet, two inches tall; I'm also a woman. Both mother and father came from families of above average height for USA, but I'm very much taller than my cousins (I don't have any siblings). Very cool channel, just came across it.
Masai are not only in Kenya my friend are from Kenya and Tanzania
Actually majority of the Masai tribe people are in Tanzania. 😂🙏🏾
@@makongorowassira6593 Hujui tu. Majority are in Kenya and that's where they came from before stepping on Tz soil. They control Three counties in Kenya alongside their cousins, the Samburu. Even 'Nairobi' is a Maasai name.
@@eng.makolal1367 The borders are fake. There is nothing like Kenya or Tanzania....it's one region up to Yemen.
They are all so beautiful ❤
I’m somali my dad is 6’7 ft my mom is 6 ft I’m 6’4

wonderful insight
Yea our Dinka ✊🏿
love this
Nilotic DNA ...most Nilotic tribes are tall
They don’t call themselves nilotic in Africa. Stop using a white man’s phase to seperate african ethncities…we go by tribes only
damn, this language sounds crazy interesting at 2:30 What language is that?
Thanks GOD 🇸🇴
Great information!
Glad it was helpful!
All these people in the comments hating on the Somalis only. It's pure jealousy 😂😂😂
The Wolof of Senegal are tall too like their Dinka brothers
