His shocked wtf just happened type reactions are just as entertaining as seeing him catch a laughing fit! But some people were going way too hard on him for being mistaken about the guy getting interrogated with four bullet holes to the face. But the way Ballen presented it was to blame. So cold hearted...not deserved.
He was a Christian missionary. That’s what he was doing there. And he took his Bible stopping the arrow as a sign from god that he should try again. We should absolutely be leaving these people alone. There are uncontacted tribes in the Amazon that we need to leave alone as well.
i could seriously set here and watch Mr. Ballen vids with Frank (and hopefully soon again Rondo) all friggin' day. this is some of the best the internet has to offer. btw, i know i can't be the only one that hits the thumbs up button before i hit play am i?
@@Psichotica7 i'd never even heard of Mr. Ballen before Frank started showing them. and i love his videos, but i'ma have to watch them as they drop on FLs. it's just more fun watching these kinds of videos with Frank.
Devil's Kettle Falls. It's a waterfall in the North Shore area that looks like it falls into solid rock, and the water disappears. People tried figuring out where the water goes by throwing things into it, or GPS trackers, but never find the objects again. Some fun-wrecking scientists discovered that it re-enters the Mississippi River underground.
Sweet. This was my suggestion last time. My fave Ballen series, that gets crazier and creepier with each episode. I like re-watching them with someone else when it's their first time.
Humans started regularly using fire 400,000 years ago. Incredible that the Sentinelese are still living prehistorically. Thankfully the government of India has made it illegal to go there and their coast is patrolled (from a distance) to prevent people from approaching the island. They are also not held to any international laws. Murder is not investigated there. They are free to deal with unwanted guests as they see fit 👍
Humans going to that island can spread diseases they have never experienced, and alter their health and environment. If the law is not to go, people shouldn't go.
How would anyone know that they don’t know how to make fire? Seems like someone is just adding in extra shit. If they can make bows then they hunt and if they hunt they make fire.
I will never understand the obsession with people to force themselves onto others, I thought we had got past that but clearly not. I'm glad they're leaving them alone, they don't need you or anyone else to succeed in life.
@@huldu It's always religion. Religion is what makes people think they have the right to interfere with other cultures and people and insert their own beliefs. Thankfully the Sentinelese are very good at protecting themselves.
The theory is a window was left open in the light house and the snakes look for a warm body to curl up with. This is why they were dead in their beds. With 2,000-4,000 vipers on the island and the only heat source in the light house they didn't stand a chance.
Sometimes in life you just have to take a hint. I’m not even gonna try and go to no island called Snake Island, that’s a big enough hint for me. If I go to another island and people immediately start firing arrows at me I’m gone, I’m definitely not going back let alone three times.
If you haven't watched him react to Piggy Palace, I recommend it. His expressions are golden for that one. It's an awful story, but you can't help but laugh.
The first MrBallen video I ever saw was called "This Box will KILL you." I watched it at midnight before bed...i stayed up binging his videos until 8 or 9am because the box video scared me so much I couldn't sleep...
@9:14, it was also reported that due to the population on the island, that the area fish had been ate up and the crocodiles had not eaten in a minute. Rough story
@karenfryberger4260 or just someone who has a conviction and wants to help others. If someone thought something could help others and then did all they could to get that to them that seems I don’t know less bad then the many who don’t care at all what happens to anyone and are neutral if not negative in their influence on others.
15:09 I think the British already tried that. Similar to how they take over and colonize other territories throughout the world. The took a respected elder from the Sentinel Island. They brought him back to Britain. They treated him well and showed him technological advances and everything. The problem is that they've been on that island for tens of thousands of years. A lot of the germs/viruses/bacteria that we have vaccines for and grown accustomed to, their immune systems aren't immune to. So, the elder fell sick, they in turn sent the elder back. The elder died shortly after returning. Since then, NO ONE is allowed on the island except North Sentinelese.
When Rondo gets back, maybe he can do a Patreon thingy where he reacts to all these videos he missed so he will be caught up and perhaps get some more funds to help him out, otherwise I send much love and healing energies to all yall :>
The first story of the fisherman and the lighthouse keepers family, are urban legends. There have been no confirmed(documented )deaths by snakebites on the island.
Sometimes, you can't fix dumb. Those people showed that man they wanted nothing to do with him at least 3 times! He kept going back anyway! I like to take the road less traveled but, not when it's filled with crocs, deadly snakes or, possibly cannibals.🫣
North Sentinel Island is pretty crazy. Would love to see you react to other videos on the topic. I get your argument about exposing them to even primitive technology like fire, but that’s what led them to be hostile in the first place! The British reached the island hundreds of years ago and had a peaceful encounter, but captured multiple and returned some of them after the others died of disease, and they’ve been hostile to outsiders ever since. For good reason, the Indian Government decided the risk of death to tourists, and that spreading disease to the peoples there was too great, and that it’s forbidden to enter. John Chau was a Christian missionary who ignored the legality to spread his religion. There’s a good lesson there.
Same happens to the invaders of bay of pigs back in the 60s that part of Cuba is a big swamp area infested with saltwater crocodiles and the invader when there to hide after losing the battle, nd you know the rest is history.
An old religion/history teacher of mine used to say something along the lines of "I don't need fiction for excitement or entertainment, reality is more interesting."
@@Kudmond No, he only meant that there are plenty of amazing/incredible things that really happened to learn about, instead of sci-fi or fantasy stories etc.
If you kidnapped a Sentinelese and took them somewhere else to learn. They'd probably die from a cold or something. They're so isolated, they have no immunity to outside viruses and such.
You should check out Tragedy Tales. Ryan might not be the storyteller Mr. Ballen is but I heard him tell 2 of the stories with more details (answers to all the questions you asked lol). I love both channels.
Honestly wonder more about the Sentinel Island and that tribe. If it was possible I would love a blood sample just to see if that Tribe built different or has interesting genes that makes this extreme isolationist tribe to kill anyone whom comes to their island. Who knows? Theu could have Superhuman Gene or be too inbreeding to breed with other Humans or just havr fascinating genetics that most Morten humans do not have because we they are dormant genes or we evolve to lose those certain genes.
The story about the crocs eating the Japanese is even worse because while the Japanese occupied the island over the years they killed and ate all the other animals (which the cros usually ate) meaning all the crocs were all starving at the time. They stood zero chance of survival.
I think the Malaysian gov't forbids anyone, especially anthropologists, from going there. The gov't does not want those people to be assimilated or wiped out.
13:10 The people in North Sentinel Island which is in the very southeast of the Indian Ocean are descented from the original people from Africa? The oldest human ever found is Java Man. Look up these locations on a map! How the hell is he connecting North Sentinel Island with Africa?
He was a missionary trying to spread the word of God. I assume he kept going back cuz he believed God would protect him. The leading theory on why they are so aggressive to visitors is that long ago, they allowed visitors and since they have no immunity to diseases being so isolated, those visitors spread diseases and a large number of Sentinelese died. So now they dont want anyone on their island.
Yes, there is a link to Rondo's gofundme is in the description box. He lost everything in an apt. complex fire. He writes about what happened in some detail. It will take time to recover, both financially and emotionally.
The GoFundMe link for Rondo is the channel bio. Can't imagine losing everything I own including the roof over my head, all in one hit. Just glad he got out intact. 🙏
A little more info: Rondo lost everything in an apt. complex fire. He and the other residents were lucky to escape with their lives. A link to his gofundme is in the description box. He writes about what happened in some detail. It will take time to recover, both financially and emotionally. I'm going to keep posting this info until he comes back; just trying to get the word out to as many as possible. Many might want to make a contribution or at least get more of the story.
These nightly Mr. Ballen episodes are literally making my life
Big agree. No shade to Mr Ballen because he puts out great videos but watching with Frank hits different, I like being the shaggy to his scooby 😂😂
These are the highlight of my day.
His shocked wtf just happened type reactions are just as entertaining as seeing him catch a laughing fit!
But some people were going way too hard on him for being mistaken about the guy getting interrogated with four bullet holes to the face. But the way Ballen presented it was to blame. So cold hearted...not deserved.
Same. 😂😂😂😂
I’m just so interested. I can’t look away!!!

He was chinese. They need to learn to stay away from these people.
if anything, I think that was a sign to stop trying to contact them lol.

Still killer vids, come back soon Rondo.
I love your after-video commentary 😂 You have a way with words Frank.

Thanks for your reaction mate.

Dropping the Mr. Baller videos at night regularly!? Absolutely amazing. Haven’t watched some of these videos in years

The Sentinelese are extreme, but they're also not being conquered. lol

John was a missionary who believed God would protect him
The guy can not take a hint.
They are not interested.
Keep walking.
PLEASE DON'T STOP THE TOP 3 PLACES YOU CAN'T GO SERIES
Good stuff as usual brother. Keep it up.
It looks like MrBallen videos be Franks comfort reactions lately. I don’t mind.
I watch Mr ballen already but it's always fun to watch your reactions! Bless.
Mr. Ballen slaps.
The crazy part, is that some of those crocodiles might still be alive , over 80 years old
People call the Sentilinese primitive but with the way our world is going they might just prove to be the smartest of us all 😂
They have abilities we don’t.
Sustainability is just one
@9:14, it was also reported that due to the population on the island, that the area fish had been ate up and the crocodiles had not eaten in a minute. Rough story
I almost feel bad for suggesting Ballen shortly before Rondo's incident..
If I remember correctly the guy that was trying to contact the Sentinelese people was a Christian missionary. That could be a different story though.
Nope, you're correct. He thought spreading the word of Jesus to people who don't have fire yet was the way to go.
No, you are correct. He was there to "spread the word of god"...top tier religious nut.

Leave the damn snakes on the island! 😬
Just Bern watching Frank reacting to psychic cringe fails. Oh funny as hell and Frank doesn't hold back lol!
Mcballen is great 👍
Yooooo what up aiight
Keep the saltwater crocodiles in mind because there's a MrBallen video where the like button bit references back to it.
a snake that bites a asleep human is scary as f**k.
an*
These are the best of all the different Mr.Ballen series!!!
3 places u can't go ❤
They never get boring & they are all fucked up
12:15 There are two types of people in the world: those who want to be left alone and those who won’t leave them alone

The last story, they must know 3 strikes your out!😂
The Devil's Kettle.
Great hiking experience in Northern Minnesota.
Yeah, that movie Castaway would've had a Very different ending if Tom Hanks had washed up on one of those 3 islands! X) Dang. Lol
There's alot of humans on this earth that are from snake island! 😂😂
The first story of the fisherman and the lighthouse keepers family, are urban legends. There have been no confirmed(documented )deaths by snakebites on the island.
What made John keep going back is insane!

These are my fav top 3 from Mr.Ballen.
good work Frank.
shout out to Rondo🎉
his valley of the headless men video is very good and creepy
He's already reacted to that one.
I have a policy in my house of a maximum of 4 legs otherwise "you must be dealt with" as Karl and Suzanne would say.
This is my motto too.

Crocodiles! Oh hell no
Mr Ballen, Cumtown and MSSP, you rule man
yessir keep pumping out mrballen pause
MrBallen is good! Try Scary Interesting creepy disappearances or horrible fates next!
I think the reason they don't reach sentinel island is to avoid distrupting the civilizatoon rather than being too dangerous to get in.
you combined my 2 favorite channels lol
John was trying to teach them religion. First mistake.
Trying to teach HIS religion.
@@Sid-gu5qkHe shouldn’t be trying to teach them ANY religion was the point I think.
In the very first story how did the people who found the dead guy in the boat know he stopped to pick bananas?
Crocodiles can flip over boats
Saltwater Crocodiles are 10 times scarier to me than any Shark. They actively hunt humans, whereas most shark attacks are mistaken identity.
Snake island sounds ok as long as you bring a shit load of antidote and some snake armor.
Same happens to the invaders of bay of pigs back in the 60s that part of Cuba is a big swamp area infested with saltwater crocodiles and the invader when there to hide after losing the battle, nd you know the rest is history.

Back in the day did you not actually start this alone then added Ron? Or did I dream it 😂😂.ps this guy john was a maniac😮😊
If you kidnapped a Sentinelese and took them somewhere else to learn. They'd probably die from a cold or something. They're so isolated, they have no immunity to outside viruses and such.
no boat big enough to save you from 23 foot crock would be able to navigate a shallow swamp. at least no ww2 boat.

How did they get the lighthouse built on snake island
I'm going to assume long before their population reached dangerous levels.
if the fisherman was found dead in his boat then how does anyone know that he went for bananas, was struck while in the tree and fell out etc etc?
They'd probably kill the person brought back. They'd be tainted.
I'd like to see snake island...from a distance
Can’t believe he went back to the island 3 times!
Honestly wonder more about the Sentinel Island and that tribe.
If it was possible I would love a blood sample just to see if that Tribe built different or has interesting genes that makes this extreme isolationist tribe to kill anyone whom comes to their island. Who knows?

I'm gonna visit the nice island people ahhh
I am setting up a team right now to go to Sentinel Island. Our aim is to bring them netflix and 4 community tvs.
We think it would be amazing to skip the whole socio-evolutionary steps from pre-fire right to netflix and chill
I have no sympathy for John. I cannot fathom being that stupid.
13:10 The people in North Sentinel Island which is in the very southeast of the Indian Ocean are descented from the original people from Africa? The oldest human ever found is Java Man. Look up these locations on a map! How the hell is he connecting North Sentinel Island with Africa?
how do we know he was choppin ban nans if he died before he could tell anyone?
It was an airfield and they had to flee fast so yes no boats
He was a missionary trying to spread the word of God. I assume he kept going back cuz he believed God would protect him.
The leading theory on why they are so aggressive to visitors is that long ago, they allowed visitors and since they have no immunity to diseases being so isolated, those visitors spread diseases and a large number of Sentinelese died. So now they dont want anyone on their island.
