Lord of flies: "people will just go savage and kill each other in few months"
real life: "apes together strong"
The stories is more metaphorical but yeah you are right.
To be fair in 'Lord of the Flies' they varied in age and they weren't friends they didn't know each other.
@@htoodoh5770 yeah but Golding wrote it because he was a teacher at a all boys school and was pissed at the very popular adventure island books where young English boys befriend the wild natives.
I mean... the world’s history (and current events) don’t really agree with your conclusion. Yes, there are stories of cooperation; in fact, it’s the main reason we have a civilization at all. But there’s also the mongol hoards, the romans, Bolsheviks.... and on it goes. I think lord of the flies was an important insight into one aspect of human nature, not an inevitable conclusion.
That's because they had rules and stuck to them. Without rules society falls apart.
So you're telling me everyone has resisted the temptation to make a movie titled "Ata boys"?
Hey! Great title .. lol
🤣🤣
Haha that's amazing 😂😂
Good pun
Outstanding!
It’s heartwarming to know that they refrained from fighting and even had a 4 hour break apart from others. They handled that better than any naked and afraid people
The funniest part of _Lord of the Flies_ is that it was never meant to be a "oh, look how savage humans are when left ungoverned in their natural state, men are beasts, etc. etc.." William Golding was just so _sick_ of the huge amounts of 'British children go on adventures elsewhere' books that were being published at the time, and was also sick of his students, who he despised as spoiled, horrible specimens of people, that he wrote the book as a response. Each character is based off a real life student of his and he definitely achieved his goal of scandalizing British society with the book's publication. Children, especially 'upstanding,' wealthy British boys had never been portrayed as anything but genteel and sophisticated before this, so this was like the equivalent of something like _The Exorcist_ or Stephen King's _It_ in terms of literary backlash and secret admiration. It was only later on that this idea of him trying to showcase the true nature of humans came into being. He really wrote the book because he was fed up with the literary trend of the era and thought his students were an example of how boarding schools and gentry at the time allowed their children to become cruel, horrible people without exercising any mediating force and how the upper class was letting their children go to shit. He really _shouldn't_ have been a teacher...
TLDR; Golding wrote _Lord of the Flies_ as a fuck you to his contemporaries and students, with each character specifically, _recognizably_ modeled after one of his students as an even bigger fuck you to them, their parents, and his peers because he was just so fed up with them.
Thanks for the New information!

Its a male things as well
The grumpy owner of the boat deserves a recognition. He never lost the faith the boys were alive and he could sue them some day.

“SURVIVAL OF THE FRIENDLIEST “ that is the best quote I’ve heard in a while, thank you.
I’ve been in my fair share of crazy situations, the 2003 blackout in NYC where those who had made it home were handing out water, and offering shade to the elderly who had to walk home, and then there’s hurricane Katrina….I was there in the aftermath of the flood and there was a sense of community I have never again experienced in my life.
I was living in Washington heights during the black out. They were looting a bit & as a young college student, my friends & i had to walk out in the dark arm to arm with a flashlight at our feet, to find food lol. Fun times, genuinely.
I think calling them "The Real Lord of the Flies" is absolutely perfect, since TLotF was written to claim that human nature was evil, but when it came down to the wire, and a bunch of kids were actually stranded on an island together, they showed everyone how a real group of kids would've acted if they needed each other to survive.
Worth notice that in the Lord of the Flies there was much larger group of boys, and that made it possible to form factions parties, and wars eventually, 6 simply isn’t enough for that to happen
Lord of the flies has many more kids and their age is from 13 to 6 so it causes chaos
Real human nature would be death, if we were all raised in the wild from birth each family would kill each other for resources and safety

What an amazing story! Loved that they united and thrived together in times of need ❤️ I will ever read that book though.
As a kid my favourite movie was The Blue Lagoon because I wanted to go and live on a tropical island, so I really loved this true story. These 6 boys behaved way better than a lot of adults would have.

Damn these boys had some serious perseverance! It’s such an amazing turn of events they were ever found at all.
Wow, the presentation you put into that story really made it shine, beautiful you could say. And it’s totally true that we are hardwired to seek out the negative, and then as if a bad cosmic joke, complain about actually finding it. I cannot count how many times I’ve heard people say that the news, or newspaper only reports the worst of things. Yet, they keep right on reading for more. Well played 42! 👍

I’m still not sure if they were on the boat for 80 days or 8 days.
Me too, confused

With no food or water, it had to be 8.
@@theremedy9171 I agree but they actually write 80 on the video.
You know what... I love this story. It's absolutely awesome. I guess I go outside the curve of people liking bad news and stories that are negative.
I know myself that i have heard of people who seek to rule and have power over others. but we need people who will get things done, more than we need someone to say "do that.." . We need more people to ask "can you help me with this." Because the job is started, you have shown it can be done and you are working towards the goal. You are not in charge. But you are the leader, you show how to do things and you make things work by doing.
Who wants to rule the world ? I definetly do not. Because you are then responsible for what happens. It is better to show others what is needed, than it is to demand they do something.
"But how did such a heart-warming story go unnoticed for so long?" It's been a pretty well-known story since it happened, especially in Australia and New Zealand. Some guy who recently wrote a book notwithstanding.
Somehow living on a deserted island doesn't sound too bad right now. 🤔

@@andrewsmail8307 Nice try, but I said DESERTED!!! LMAO CHEERS!
This story is actually more in tune with what human history looks like, a collective effort to survive. It reminds me of a famous story about Margaret Mead:
“Years ago, anthropologist Margaret Mead was asked by a student what she considered to be the first sign of civilization in a culture. The student expected Mead to talk about fishhooks or clay pots or grinding stones.
But no. Mead said that the first sign of civilization in an ancient culture was a femur (thighbone) that had been broken and then healed. Mead explained that in the animal kingdom, if you break your leg, you die. You cannot run from danger, get to the river for a drink or hunt for food. You are meat for prowling beasts. No animal survives a broken leg long enough for the bone to heal.
A broken femur that has healed is evidence that someone has taken time to stay with the one who fell, has bound up the wound, has carried the person to safety and has tended the person through recovery. Helping someone else through difficulty is where civilization starts, Mead said.”
We are at our best when we serve others. Be civilized.
- Ira Byock.”
These boys were Mead’s Medley :)
Thanks for sharing this. Really uplifting to read!
Perhaps as sign of evolution?
I swear thats just the difference between predators and non-predators
Interesting. But then,civilisation begins before and beyond humanity, as we know from chimps and some other social species, that they take care of their ills, olds of woundeds.
@@blanco7726 Nope. More like non-social vs social species, and even then there are varying levels and kinds of social behaviours, some of which include caring for the sick or even old and infirm.

The fact that they thought that was a viable journey suggests the nuns weren't very good at teaching them geography or common sense.

@@perryhenderson9242 that sounds a lot like religion in a nut shell.
Or maybe they did but they weren't paying attention in class? You know, students don't always pay attention, especially when they hate school so much they'd rather sail to Fiji.
The nuns wouldn't be teaching them how to escape in the first place. Plus I bet they know how to get to Fiji, they were heading in the right direction at first. Anything else is just a lack of forsight since this wasn't some expedition of experts but a bunch of rowdy teens.
Imagine how happy the parents were when they found the boys
Yeah, would've loved to see the reactions of the parents and other close ones after they got news of the boys' survival.
And then they leave again
They also probably started yelling at them afterwards
they had a feast for a week straight, yes one of the boys is my great grandad

This is the literal counter argument to Lord of the Flies.
In the book the kids were young and didn't know eachother.And they were spoiled brats.
But in real life the group was made up of older kids and they were all friends.
@@Raccon_Detective. Spot on! I was just about to say the same.
Sadly, people tend to cooperate better with those they’re familiar with. I am not that kind of person, I believe in special situations like this we MUST work together and not fall to division or else we are all gonna be f*ked together. Do or die.
I also think their faith in God played a role. Not bullet proof, but will keep you off each other’s throats for a bit.
these are tongan polynesian kids from tonga who where friends not a bunch of spoiled brats.
"Adrift for 80 days" and then " mercifully on the 9th day"...
Ya I caught that too, what was it 80 or 9??? 80 days I can see them drifting further then what was stated .
I caught this too! I was thinking, how could they go 80 days without food?!?! It is obvious now that he meant 8 days. Still tough to be without food for that long!
Was looking for this comment
They saw it on the 9th day .. then circled it like a drain for 71 more ... 🤣
I think he meant 8 days
A lovely heartwarming story I thoroughly enjoyed it.
This goes so deep. Thank you!
Moral of the story: Failure to prepare is to prepare to fail.
Thank you, Sphinx. You're so very mysterious!
The moral is: Only steal boats equipped with GPS!
Sounds like they succeeded. Probably the only reason they wanted off of the island was because there were no girls
Says the ever present ever brilliant armchair quarterback.
Except they didn't fail they won and built a bond like many will never have or experience.
I'm thoroughly impressed with those boys. I mean, ok they had the advantage of growing up on an island in the first place, but they still did brilliantly.
Kids in most first world countries wouldn't even know how to light a fire, let alone survive.
I just love his segues from storyline to ad lines. Total genius and I never fail to laugh.
Crazy how there actually was a kid who fell off a cliff just like in the "Lord of the Flies" story. Fortunately he survived instead of going splat on the rocks below.
There are more similarities. You'd almost suspect someone of making things up so it fits the narrative of the noble nature man.

They put "Lord of the Flies" to shame.
Hahah
Hell yeah
Well the didn't have to deal with like 20 seven or ten year olds
Yeah this is the real "lord of the flies", not the book which people believe would happen if people were stuck on an island
I read the story in school in 1981 (in english class and afterwards it was thoroughly discussed). The assumptions the books makes, was already then considered false. Not just because of this story (the forgotten part in this video is pure bullshit btw.), but by experts. Humans and great apes, are generally kind at heart. Hard to believe isn't it? I can't say what happens if you got sociopaths in the group though.
One of my favourite videos you've made, loved it!
Such an amazing story, I'm surprised there hasn't been a movie about it (that I know about at least). I wish there were more tales like this, showing that when the chips are down, people are more likely to help each other than not. I'm tired of the depressing drivel coming from Hollywood and the film industry these days.
The is a movie is called the real life fruit of the flies
I find it funny how the island they ended up at wasn’t even near the general direction they wanted
But they have achieved their goal
they are lucky that nature took their choice of where to go
If someone through me in jail after 15 months of being stranded on an island... Come on dont you think thats punishment enough.
It was rather horrible to arrest them before they could even see their relatives!!! Geesh, treated them like hardened criminals. Plus if that boat was worth anything, why did it start to sink in less than a week. Seems that boat owner finally saw a way to profit off those young boys misdeed. If their family wanted them home, that boatman must be paid first. Yes; of course, they had ‘borrowed’ the boat but it was a miracle that they all lived and even thrived. Good true story.

"Lord of the Flies" was a story everyone read at school when I was a kid in the UK. I'm not sure why? I think it was a way of reinforcing why societal norms are important. Listen boys, if you don't follow English rules you'll end up hunting each other for sport and that's why we play cricket.

@@CaptainDad28 I appreciate the question, and the unfortunate answer is it has happened. There are priests that would take advantage of others on such a way, however, they are extremely few.

They look pretty buff for living that long on a remote island. Shows the skill in acquiring food.
There were hens, eggs, and starches (taro I think is the name of that fruit) from the former farmers, plus the fat from coconut. And meat from fish if they were fishing (but eggs are better or getting chicken meat). They built chicken scoops, so they caught some.
That is enough to survive - it is not a very varied diet (it depends if there were any berries, plants that were edible and that they knew. So if they knew them, a little more variety). Not a lot of choices, but enough. And they were healthy teenage boys with plenty of workout, and enough to eat, so you bet they were in good physical shape.

The thumbnail: DID THEY SURVIVE?!?!
The title: how did 6 boys survive on this remote island for 15 months
4 are still alive now and working as consultants on the movie

A good teacher 🤣
I thought this as well then I considered that you could technically live for 15 months on the island and then die (on the island). That wouldn't really be "surviving" if living until normal old age or making it off the island is classified as survival.
In that way the thumb / title don't really give away the full story necessarily.

@Clayton Berkey yea do you know what a joke is? Besides he is talking about the abusive trash the boys used to go.
as someone who grew up in a Catholic school, I relate to those pupils
My condolences or how ever the fuck it's written
