@@davidjacobs8558 I just watch on local Indonesia documentary, and as this video said, the tree need to be felled/cut down, because the Gutta Percha extracted not from the wood body/stem, but actually from the leaf, and the tree need to be grow minimally around 10 meter to be considered ready to be harvested. That's why it's considered as ecologically destructive... But one good thing about this tree: they need extremely minimum care... seedling need as tall as teenager to be ready planted on the ground, and after that they not need any care, as long they planted on rainy season. even in the documentary, the worker only need to do weeding if the bushes/weed is growing too dense/big and sometimes they not need weeding at all.

Gutta Perca came from english pronunciation of Indonesian words "getah" meaning sap, and "Perca" the name of the tree. So the literal translation is "sap of perca tree"
Mate.. Malay language. Indonesia wasnt even born yet.. the malay language is the lingua Franca of then Areas .. Indonesia adopted the Malay language as its National Lingua franca, naming it Indonesian Getah = Rubber Percha = small piece @ patch frm bigger just like kain percha (patchwork , of remnants of cloth)

My introduction to Gutta Percha was a PBS documentary. I only recall hearing about the telegraph line from London to New York. My 2nd encounter was root canals. My dentist was in disbelief that I knew what he was putting in my mouth! This is however the first time I have learned that the telegraph cables went all over the world...but am not surprised that greed almost wiped out the species.
The map depicting the British Empire erroneously included Alaska. It was still part of Russia at that time, but even after that it came to the US. It was never part of the British Empire. Just sayin
And when I was educated 1950/60's the world atlas showed the British Empire in pink never red ( as that was seen as a Russian colour ) Any old atlas book with verify it .

The were problems with undersea cables that went far beyond the insulation. Arthur Clarke's book "How the World Was One" describes the issues in fair detail.
This video is exquisitely put together. It's fun and clear. Brings history to life. What a Tree, revolutionised the world. Protect the forests & Nature, think of how many species could revolutionise the world still 💪❤️🌍🙏
Seeing how we deplete other ressources equally including those which replaced Gutta Percha, it maybe wise to try to keep this tree alife and well, we just may need it again.
My great-grandfather, Thomas J. Wilmot, for 20 years Superintendent of the Waterville Cable Station, Co Kerry, Ireland, invented the Wilmot Automatic Transmitter in 1890, which removed the human hand from the telegraph, greatly speeding the rate of transmissions. ...... My late father told me that Thomas was Superintendent, but never mentioned the transmitter - maybe he knew nothing of it. ...... I found it on Google. I had no idea that so much damage was done to Nature to weaterproof the cables. ...... So sad.
Knew of the medical uses. Did not know of its uses in undersea cables. My thanks. The observation that synthetic polymers came the rescue was well taken. I've heard that about 1/2 of the planet's physical wealth is because of and manifested in synthetic polymers. Ie: water bottles.
Truly fascinating! I wasn't aware that international electronic communications were taking root (route) as underwater telegraph cables starting in the mid 1800's.
here's anudder odd fact: the structure of the internet as we know it from 1995 is old: it began one day in may, 1935, when a switch was thrown and RAF Fighter Command in the Home Ids. went active. it has been so ever since.
The map at the beginning of the video did not even bother to include the Philippine Map. I mean the Philippines is an archipelago and its hard to draw but at least put a dot or something to represent it.
Dear BBC, the telegraph in Australia landed at Darwin, then Palmerston thence to Adelaide, not into Perth western Australia as your graphic showed, Perth didn't have telegraph communication to to eastern states till much later. Do you research please.
Never knew the communication network was so large and covered a significant part of the world in 1850s. However, the word geta is nothing but the Sinhalese word 'geta' meaning roundish blob that must have come out of the tree. Similar words are 'hujjan' and 'hutan' meaning falling water and forest but perhaps used long time ago. So, the Brits have a habit of keeping everything secret, like the ARM!.
Without the innovations and advancements brought on by the British Empire the world would be much less wealthy healthy and free. We can't even imagine the extend of illness and poverty, slavery etc, that would probably still exist without the British influence on the world. Gutta percha is still around but small pox has been eradicated.
And if the world was to pay Britain for abolishing slavery, building universities and libraries in every corner of its empire (look up the Jaffna Library, largest in Asia once and then destroyed by Sri lankans) and the technology it created, then the worlds' coffers would go dry.
@@xrysoryba oh, it's gutta percha throughout? Must have been expensive back then. I thought they'd do something like with some lacquer items where it'll have a core and then build up with layers.
@@nunyabiznes33 No, gutta percha was actually quite cheap at the time. It was also used to make revolver grips as it was cheaper than wood. I guess that's also why they used it for truncheons.
@@xrysoryba oh, ok. Guess it's cheap since they're practically getting it for free by destroying the rainforest. If only it can be harvested without killing the tree, like rubber and lacquer.
The British apparently went 'mad' for anything and everything they could use and consume as long as it was cheap , coming from far away places for which they never felt accountable. Lot of apologies are lined up for the Britishers!
How hard would it have been to learn the proper pronunciation of the Malay name of the tree? I'm so tired of western media outlets not doing their research and giving due respect to non-European languages. It's fucked up in an age of advanced machine translation and widespread internet communication.
This is more difficult than one would think, seeing that many languages have or haven't got sounds present in other languages. I always scream when some basic town name from my own country gets mutilated in English. Only they really don't have the sounds in their language; native English speakers don't know how to move their tongues to produce the sound properly. Add to that the fact that if two English speakers want to communicate about that town they probably have to find a way of spelling it so it will be understood by the other English speaker. Some languages, take Japanese for an extreme example, cannot pronounce consonant groups. They need to insert a vowel between most consonants, so for instance the word "strange" would become "su-tu-ren-ji". Or think of Chinese: Are we really able to pronounce Xi Jin-Pings name properly? How do we move our tongue to pronounce the sound they describe as "X"? How do we even transliterate languages that don't use the Latin alphabet? Yes, these days we can use UTF16 if we put our mind to it (and I really agree it should be done universally FFS), but by using a non-Latin alphabet the words will become unreadable for anybody from a country used to another alphabet. And Yes, this thing would have to be observed from all sides. We write your words as you please; then you also please write our words as we please. So from now on write the big German city on the Rhine as Köln, not as Cologne or whatever. => Conclusion: Hardly practicable, isn't it?
I'm not quite sure what he's complaining about, but I have been thinking about it, and possibly he's annoyed at the narrator pronouncing gettah perca as "getta perka". I think it would have to be "getta percha" or "getta perja", the same as "kecap manis" is pronounced something like "ketchup manis". (This isn't Malay, as far as I know, but still.) I wrote a lengthy response to his post which was probably totally off his point because I hadn't grasped it 😄
"The demand for truncheons". - really ? well, I wouldn't have guessed that little sentence in a literal million years ! 😃 Truncheons indeed, I mean for heavens sake, what the actual flip, you couldn't make it up !
Hi everyone, here's some life saving or health saving important information for you. This tree stuff might be in your root canal, and if you are allergic to latex that might be a problem. Because of this video I have to call the dentist that did my root canal tomorrow who knew I was allergic to latex and I will ask "is there anything from the gutta percha tree" in my tooth. I doubt they'll even know what I am talking about, if you have this tree stuff in your root canal you may want to get it removed. Thanks BBC, when the dentist inevitably says "Gut-what?" I might show them this video.
Usually, when people refer to a latex allergy, they are talking about a *rubber* latex allergy. Latex is simply the name given to a milky sap. Many trees and other plants have latex, but only the latex from the rubber tree (ficus elastica) is rubber latex. Gutta percha is the latex from an entirely different tree, so if you have it in your tooth and have not had an allergic reaction to it yet, you probably aren't allergic to gutta percha, even if you know you have a (rubber) latex allergy. Not all salt is sodium chloride, not all alcohol is ethanol, and not all latex is rubber.
What I like about Brits is at least there are some historical mistakes they acknowledge, and regret - and even apologize on. Also make a lesson out of.
no the tree almost disappeared because of british gready capitalism and power ambitions... dont try to divert the narrative and saying its treathened by deforestation.
