After 4 years, I went back to visit the PYGMIES - who are genetically the shortest group of people in the world. The last time I met the pygmies, I was alone in the Central African Republic, and this time, I went deep into the Democratic Republic of Congo (4,000 miles away) with Deanna and our local friend, Obed.
The journey was not easy, as we battled flat tires, massive thunderstorms, and my camera nearly getting stolen from someone at a street market in Bukavu (the 3rd biggest city in the DR Congo). But the payoff in the end was pure magic - the pygmies are so welcoming and fun! They literally danced around the fire while beating the drums from the moment we met until we left (15 hours straight).
This is one of those stories and experiences that (when it's all said and done), I will be remembered for. It is a pleasure to share this story with you, that my team and I spent 5 weeks editing, and I hope that you enjoy! And don't forget to subscribe for more stories like this one! bit.ly/2hyQnZ1

hi
Love your videos yes theory
Really appreciate you guys, thanks for the kind words and I can't wait for our next adventure together!
truee
@@drewbinskykeep up these amazing videos!
The fact that the tallest people in the world and the shortest people in the world are all in Africa is testimony to the genetic variation on the continent. Apparenly there is more genetic diversity between Africans than between any other two people on the planet. Fascinating. Thank you for showing us the world.
Pygmy vs nilotic south sudanese shortest and tallest ☺
And the least genetic variation? I think probably east Asians
@@Cosmicfraud3209 What do you base that on? Who do you consider East Asians? You can see native peoples who look "East Asian" from Central Asia all the way to Greenland. And there is more genetic diversity historically than in Europe.

The tallest people are in Holland.
I’m from Gabon 🇬🇦, for those who know, pygmées are among the kindest, most sharing and welcoming community ever. In Gabon they welcomed the bantous, taught them knowledge like spiritually (bwiti/ iboga), herbal medicine, and how to survive in the forest. But unfortunately, as they are a pacific community, we started to chase them from their natural habitat, force them to integrate in our society, and literally use them as we employ them for big hard work to pay them in chicken change. Thank you, for this video. It’s important to show to the world what they are going through, as they don’t ask much, just peacefully live in the forest where we found them.
we are all one ❤
Pygmies protect the microscopic people living in the ground.... has no one seen Arthur???
I have always wanted to go to Gabon to see the mandrills
I am struck by the dignity and courage of the Chief. He has obviously endured many hardships but he knows the health of his community depends on his wisdom. This is a stark contrast to my American compatriots who think high gas prices equal hardship and value individuality over community.
We blame the white man for slavery yet black mistreat other blacks worst then the white man. From 2021- 2023 there was a civil war that took place in east Africa. According to military warfare experts. It was The most brutal war of the 21st century. If it wasn’t for Ukraine and Russia war. They would be talking about it all over the media. over six hundred thousand people dead. One million people displaced. Simply because one tribe did like the other.
I tested my DNA and I am related to the Biaka pygmies. So cool seeing where I got my short stature and fun spirit from! Awesome vid Drew and Dianna! 🎉
That's cool...

Hey guys! This video took 3 months to create, from filming on the ground to post-production (with my team of 5 amazing editors)! I love this kind of storytelling, and I am shaping my channel to do more long-form documentaries about the journey to meet indigenous tribes around the world. I'd love for your honest feedback -- what you liked, didn't like, or want to see more of - so we can continue to improve and tell awesome stories! Thank you and really appreciate the support!
Filming on the ground 💀 come on they ain't that short
people's attension spam these days though. Idk
Glad you made it back alive!
Fr.
I bet you had to have plenty of crisp cash to survive.
@@JungleJimAdventures i didn't mean it like that!!! I'm also pretty short
@@bruh16204 yeah but YT is a great platform for long form as well! I also produce YT shorts, IG reels and tik toks for those people who want to consume that kind of content
I’m currently in Rwanda, have been banging my head against the wall trying to figure out how to get into DRC. The visa process is so complicated. Then I saw this video and I’ve already contacted Obed! Let’s hope he comes through. The stars might align in the final few days.
Hope you get into DRC🤞
What’s the update? Were you able to make it
Incase you still have problems or no response from Obed. I may be of a help or two. I'm from Goma.
Good luck
yu could come to dr congo through kenya in east africa
This tribe is really nice. The respect they show to visitors is super kind. They were blessed to have you Drew!
Truth!
How were they blessed Drew being there?
@@mysteriousjz good question it's called inferiority complex where people see themselves as less than others it's the brainwashed people who think Yt people are better than others it's disgusting actually
@@mysteriousjzYeah, it is the exact opposite way around. He was blessed to be welcomed by them!
Some of these fans are kinda weird like that.
@@mysteriousjzI mean he did bring the food and stuff it’s not bad to say he blessed them
My heart constantly pains for AFRICA it is the Land of my forefathers.
I am from Trinidad and Tobago 🇹🇹. Love You.

Ah fellow trinii???
The land of your forefathers is a literal trash dump in a desert filled with thieves in an uncivilized culture that can’t get it together for thousands of years. Ish.
Am kenyan and i understood all the swahili the chief spoke , the guide/interpreter did a good job explaining what they were saying to you
Obed is the best!

In kenya they is a place called mwakitau its where the first war was fought its in the center of tsavo east .lts an area inhabited by wild animals
this is a great job fr humanity which the UN needs to recognise .
As a person who's spent most his life in Nj, Usa ..I can't even begin to express my gratitude for Drew and his entire crew for continuously opening my eyes to the immeasurable amounts of diversity, the multitude of beautiful people, and for the abundance of culture around the world. This channel has changed my perspective forever on how much bigger life is than just you and i... Thank you Drew 🙏
Common Drew! Don’t be a cheap Charlie! You’re getting millions with your blogs and you can’t even bring at least 10 bags of rice? You are also exploiting them. At least try and compensate them well! You are earning more at their expense yet that’s why you gave them? Shame!
At least he did something and gave to them, what have you done for anyone but yourself? come on man stop deflecting your own lack of helping others onto him. he travels the entire world and gives back everywhere he goes! and he tried to get more but did you not see they wouldn't take the money if it had a scratch or slight rip in it? @ 9:19@@tsarizma5177
@tsarizma5177 - can you PLEASE stop spamming your cringe @ss comment!!! If you feel that deeply about it - go and bring them more rice yourself. What an odd thing to be so insistently badgering about.
Are your mental faculties in order beloved?
Obed is one of the most kindest hearted humble person I have ever seen and I am glad you guys visited my home land africa
Obed is a Biblical name. He is family to Naomi and Ruth.
Thanks!
Drew and Diana..I've just found your channel and am completely awed by your humanity, stamina and grace under stressful situations...thank you for sharing the diversity,love and adventure with those of us who, forever reason, are not able to do what you are doing . I can honestly say I love both of you.
Hi Glamgiver I hope my comment didn't sound as a form of privacy invasion your comment tells of a wonderful woman with a beautiful heart which led me to comment I don't normally write in the comment section but I think you deserve this compliment. If you don’t mind can we be friends? Thanks God bless you….🌹🌹

This makes me so happy! We did the exact same route you just traveled back in 2016. Bukavu, Kahuzi-Biega with the gorillas and then we visited the Pygmy village as well. It was one of the most amazing and rewarding trips we've ever taken. So cool to see you there!
i'm so happy to hear this! Thank you!
Geez. I am glad Drew and Diana kept their cool. I would have been so freaked out by the attention. Thank you for educating us!
I like drew because he shows real africa unlike the media who describes it as a depressed impoverished society where every person is very undefed and sad
Thanks
ohoo africa is some countres is more advancr unlike some countries in europe .welcomr to kenys in africa
gorbachevofrussia4264 many europe countries devalued africa yet they stole africa wealth and culture
Lol okay
Indonesians are shorter than these peope
the reason your channel is extremely credible is because your experience is AUTHENTIC ...and you dive deep into the countrys cultures no wonder your channel is still relevant .. keep it UP
One of the most enjoyable videos I’ve watched. The Pygmy people are so amazing- joyful despite their dire situation. This reminded me that we shouldn’t grumble or complain when things don’t go our way. Obed is also such a positive person. Thank you for sharing this with the world. The Aetas of the Philippines are also very interesting. I hope you’ll be able to go to them too.
It's them dancing at 3:30 am..crazy😂😂

love Deanna’s presence in your videos
she is useless
Deanna is SO cool! I love how she is along for anything, no complaint, roll with whatever is thrown at them. Awesome human being!!
Drew Binsky I travelled in this area 45 years ago. No pygmies lived in accessible villages. I met two Forrest dwellers, man and woman, on a track in the jungle. They were Way under 5’. No western clothes. Quiver with arrows on the man’s back. We just checked each other out for 5 mins before they disappeared back into the jungle.
Wow thank you for sharing!!
Wow, you saw them in their last authentic times
Amazing!

As a congolese I assure you despite the chaos and poverty, Congolese we are the most fun people in the central and East African region. Dance, music, fun it's all ours. we weren't blessed with peace and clean government but fun, yeah it's our DNA the fun. Always happy seeing Drew in Congo.
Agree !!

@@tsarizma5177 it's not a must to give them. He still had option of doing it without giving anything,guys please be easy on creators 😂 they don't have millions as you think but they trying to make a living also. You can't put pressure on them like that when you don't know what you could do being in his shoes
@@tsarizma5177 my guy ever see what happens to lottery winners? sudden changes in financial situation destroy people all the time. the guides tell them what to bring and they do it. add to that the fact that a small tribe like that very well may not have the space to store tons of food. If they can't store the food properly, it will all go to waste anyways. Think before you comment.
What is the culture like of the Pygmies in terms of their beliefs, cultural habits, etc? Are there any videos or interviews explaining this?
This reminds me of wise words I once heard that I think perfectly applies to this situation, “Building the future and keeping the past alive are one and the same thing.” I’m so happy you’re bringing light to this, I had no idea this was happening until watching this.
Am from Zambia. And we are the most welcoming and friendly person you can visit in Africa.
It's crazy kicking them out of their forest for conservation, even though I bet you everything I own these people take better care of their forest, their land, literally their entire way of life for thousands of years than anyone else
The Pygmy tribes in Ituri province underwent genocide at the hands of 2 U S supported groups to clear them off the land. ~90,000 Pygmy people perished, this was in late 2002-early 2003. Look it up on Wikipedia. Rwanda has also been used as a U S proxy in the region as a middleman/ destabilizer of Eastern Congo in order to keep the region weak and the rare earth metals smoothly exploited and exported into international markets (via Rwanda). It's all incredibly disturbing.
I really love your videos because as much as there's nothing wrong with tourist spots, I always found that I enjoyed the cultural experience more and seeing how people lived and their lifestyle. And I feel like you really dwleve into that and connect with the people around you and your environment. Love your video keep it up! Love from Kyrgyzstan.🇰🇬😁
I'm from Cameroon 🇨🇲 the pigmies and Mountain Gorillas range from east Cameroon through Northern Gabon and both Congos. This group occupy what we call the central African rain forest
It's so amazing that Africa has the tallest people and the shortest people in the world. Africa is the most beautiful and diverse place in the world.
This is similar to what happened to the Native Americans…they got kicked out of their land 😢
Thanks for sharing their story
They are still in America
This is categorically false. Natives worked hand in hand with settlers and many left their traditions behind to live like the settlers or joined hands with settlers to decimate their native rivals. They were also rich and had much oil money. Many of those families exist today in live in wealth. Thats a far cry from the pygmies and the Congolese!
Heartwarming to see kindness in central Africa despite all the unrest and politics. Great video!
America France and the rest of the west is responsible for that because y'all want to keep Africans poor but the tide is turning
Africans are kindhearted
TH-cam needs to promote channels like these way way better.. A follower from 100k
Wow! I loved this. I'm from Johannesburg and I so appreciated you transporting me to DRC. ThAnk you !
We have a courageous open minded Drew. Who will go from end to end of the world. And he chose the perfect partner, Diana, who loves to join in whatever culture activity and eager to learn. Such beautiful pair❤
You are such a wonderful to watch. We try to “seek discomfort” but nothing like you! I love watching you.
I have travelled the world with you Drew through your videos. Thank you so much
Nice, Drew! You have truly seen the shortest tribes in the Democratic Republic of the Congo! Greetings from the United States!
💥CAN WE ALL APPRECIATE💥 How Drew's wife composed herself even though it looks like she was having an internal anxiety/panic attack, bro the way she locked that window when she was in the van but kept her composure and smiled 😂
Pfffff can't imagine that feeling. That seemed so incredibly uneasy.
She tried in comporting herself. However, I don't like her statement “they don't have a choice” 👀 They are NOT obliged to fix your vehicle under the rain while you are hiding under a roof! She needs to learn to appreciate kindness shown to her by the Africans!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The way she shut the window was arrogant and condescending. I noticed that very well, and am surprised you have a poem in praise for her.
Closing the window is fine but she's very ignorant and naive which i find annoying
I love how Diana is always dancing with everyone she has such a bright, happy soul ❤ she’s wonderful
This video totally brought me back. Nothing beats the unpredictability of traveling in central africa such a incredible eye opening, stressful and great experience.
God bless Drew for respecting and sharing your experiences in our continent much love from south africa 🇿🇦🇿🇦♥️♥️🙏🏿🙏🏿
My Boyfriend, is currently stationed in the DRC on a UN military deployment and it's Wild to actually see what it's like there. Absolutely loved the video.
Thank you so much!
I appreciate that you showed the little moments, there can be frustrating moments when traveling and disagreements but that is human! I like seeing the real deal!
Thanks for visiting my country. I’m really proud and you had an amazing fixer! ❤🎉
Drew, your stories and videos are amazing! You are my hero!
Wow Drew! What an amazing trip. I enjoyed seeing the pygmies. They are a loving, kind, and happy people. It's a shame they were moved out of the jungle. God bless them.
Thank you for taking us with you.
Thank you so much!
Wow this was honestly amazing to watch! Their happiness just watching them sing & dance makes u look at life differently
It surprised me that they spoke Kiswahili! I did not expect to understand a thing from them.
Now I want to visit because I know it will feel a little bit like home ! We'll understand eachother seamlessly.
Thanks for another beautiful and super insightful video!
They're surrounded by Bantu speaking people, and the mainstream cultural medium of DC and Tanzania is Kiswahili. However, the Pygmy languages are supposedly mixture of Isolate, Nilo-Saharian/Kodorfian family group.
Thank you for amazing video . ❤
I was expecting for Deanna to replie in Swahili when the chief greeted her habari 😂😂😂 the Kenyan in me,,great video!!
I think she thought he said “how are you” hahah . It was cute
Am a Kenyan enjoying every step you make & congrats for all your efforts, hardwork to bring us eye openers
I hope you are familiar @DrewBinsky -- having realized that your partner Deanna is Filipino -- that the first settlers or peoples of the Philippines were pygmies as well ;). We call them "Aetas" or "Negritos", the last term given by the Spaniards who encountered these short-statured (they're also about 4 feet+ tall although recent generations of them are taller now due to mixed marriages), dark skin-colored, and kinky-haired ancestors of ours. Their populations are dwindling now, although a great number of them used to live in Zambales, around Mt. Pinatubo in central Luzon. And like any other pygmy race, they lived as hunger-gatherers like their ancestors in the Philippine islands since about 30,000 years ago!
Yes
Indonesians are shorter than these people. They're the shortest people in the world not africans
Thank you for updating my knowledge about our indigenous ancestors.
We still have archaic human populations among us and should allow them to roam in peace
So true ! Thank you to let the world know about this.
This is awesome Drew! and the beautiful people are divine!! They put a smile on my face! What stamina to dance that long!!!!
Obed is such a nice tour guide. Loved this trip
The best of the best
Absolutely beautiful my beautiful people from Congo. I m from the same region and I lived all the. War for 10 year and survive . I m litteraly crying from the video and see my people still suffering and such beautiful soul and my blood . We are doing the best to help them with what we can , but the government doing wrong and the rebels . So sad but also happy. Aksanti sana Drew . God bless . Maisha ni moja. Mungu ni mukubwa❤ together forever Congolese
I'm from Liberia west africa we do have Pygmies up in the mano river mountains, I heard about them growing up but never encounter any of them , because my tribe is not from that region, I am just loving this thank you Drew for show casing my contient like this.
I remember this place last 2014 when I work her in Congo DRC Africa in a gold mining company,at masaya rin ako sayo mam na bilang isang Pilinpina na kasama sa vlog na ito,God bless sa inyu mam,merci beaucoup. from iligan city mindanao Philippines.
Great work team. 3mths of time used to produce something that 99% of the population would not see otherwise.
Please keep pumping your awsome content out Drew and team❤
Common Drew! Don’t be a cheap Charlie! You’re getting millions with your blogs and you can’t even bring at least 10 bags of rice? You are also exploiting them. At least try and compensate them well. Right now you are earning more money at their own expense. So, have a heart! At least be generous.
That was a massive meal for the chief 😂Loved it.
Well it is so sad to see these beautiful community facing problems without any reasons. May God be with them and restore their land! Thank you Drew and Diana for sharing this video. Learned alot.
What an adventure. I like the videos of you and Deanna together
Extremely well done, the editing, superb! Look close, easy to tell it's an incredible amount of work throughout the entire video. Lol, after watching, I rushed to subscribe, and found I already was? Thank you, Drew, I will NOT forget again!

Your hard work is truly admirable and greatly appreciated. I'm excited to learn and grow with the two of you. Keep up the excellent work, and thank you again for allowing me to join the journey.
Fascinating. I find it very cool how when you were in South Sudan 🇸🇸 you met the real life giants. And after travelling a lil bit to drc you met the shortest people. Africa never ceases to amaze me.
These videos are amazing because of how fun is to travel,learning other tribes ways of life and beliefs,and trying new things to do. ❤❤❤
Amazing story drew I don’t think you will find this comment but if you do I want to thank you for inspiring me to get out of bed and see the world and I’m so grateful for your videos always boosts my mood if I’m having a bad day
Thanks! Of course, I read all the comments!
@@drewbinsky oh wow didn’t expect a reply that’s good to hear not many creators your size read all the early comments another reason why your one of my favourite creators
Love love love the authenticity of your videos! I learned so much about the pygmies from watching. You are an incredible content creator :)
One of the original tribe people in the Philippines are called the Aetas and they are only 4"ft. tall. They can be found in the mountains all over the Philippines and are surely they are related. God bless.
I visited them in 2019, and it's true they are all incredibly short. They also had dark skin and curly hair like Africans but with Filipino facial features, which was surprising to me.
@@sierrahultgren945 There are some people like them also in Central African Republic, so they must have come from there thousands of years ago.
@ that would make sense. I'm curious if they have a close common ancestor or not.
This makes me so emotional!! I love the pride and peaceful energy my people possess!
Drew, I came across your channel couple nights ago and loved these few videos I've watched. This video here is close to my own heart. I found out about 2 years ago that I have the bloodline of the Bantu people, possibly from Cameroon: found this out right after returning from my first mission trip to Africa in Malawi. I've been to Africa 3 times now for mission trips. Anytime I'm able to have the funds to sign up and go, I'm there,Lord willing. This video for the Pygmy people is similar to what's happening to the Massai people in Tanzania. It's sad. Thank you for not only having the interest to make your videos but also and more importantly loving and caring for people and their culture. Thank you.
You're doing Gods work bro! Seriously, i appreciate the sacrifices to bring us content. This was beautiful and extremely captivating.
Love you Drew and your stories 💗 Dienna is a strong ladyyy , much love to her as well...
New viewer here and I have to say I love that (in the videos I've seen at least) you make a point to bring a huge meal to the people you visit. I think that's an amazing way to show gratitude which transcends language and culture!
I got energy, I got money. But I don't have the time to travel as much as I want to.
Therefore I am happy to see youtubers like you, delivering my dream through this platform.
Thank you Drew, thank you Deanna.
Thank you TH-cam.
Make the time!
Im Philippines and i love to watch drew the content vlog creator ❤🙏 keep safe always

This was amazing commentary…I came across your channel by accident…I enjoy your nomadic journeys
Yasssssssssss!!!! I loved every bit of this video!!! I love the respect that you show to the culture and most of all the people wherever you go, I’m here for the learning experiences and seeing different people, hearing different languages and seeing the world through your eyes!! Your wife is so beautiful and I love you two together!!! Two amazing spirits I can’t wait to start traveling! I just received my passport two days ago and you truly inspired me to start my traveling journey. Only thing is I wish I could travel alone and feel as safe as you I don’t think that would be as safe for me because I’m a woman but trust me watching your videos is the next best thing!! Lol keep up the great work!!
Thank you!!!!!
OMG, thank you sooooooo much for this clip!!!
Thank you for this beautiful documentary! What an enlightening experience this must have been for you and Deanna!
Am I the only one that got an emotional of that welcoming and the dance..I love the love. Will inspire others especially African Americans to come and learn about their culture 😊
