The Baka live in the forests in Cameroon. Their traditional hut, the mongulu, is a finely crafted design woven from thin saplings and covered in maranta leaves. They move periodically and practice a little forest agriculture.
Money can’t buy happiness and they seems happy 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Knowledge and wisdom more precious than gold and silver.
They seem to be a very happy people. Lots of smiles and talking. If a serious gymnastics program ever started there, they would dominate the world. Pound for pound perhaps the most athletic and strongest people in the world.
I am loving a series about all these different villagers and their house building techniques out of organic material that I hope you do one on the indabella tribe they make their homes very colorful
Wow!!!these people did a fantastic job! I’m so proud of them!! Please make some more videos on your crafts! God bless you all and keep up the great works your a blessing 👍
Almost exactly like the wigwam built by east coast Native Americans! It's so cool to me how such separate cultures seem to find similar architectural solutions.
And they gather honey just like the aborigines from Australia
An amazing house 100 natural. I hope people never lose this ability to build a home using what's around them.
Tremendous job done by these people. We spend so much of money to buy houses and decorate it. But still we are not happy. See them they are really so happy.
Dilshaad Abbas nature does that to humans. They live with nature.
many people say that happiness is not to be found but created and gratitude is what always brings happiness
@@baphithi Very True
@@arjanbrass1626 yaa, you are right
@@daffodilslove-wf8qd thanks 👍
Contentment and grateful in life is how i see their celebration.🌷🌴🌾💖
Unbelievable....Not a tape measure, tools (other than machete), nails, glue etc in sight. Love this.
That’s incredible how the women all worked together to make a home in a day!
I am sure I saw a few boys and a man there. They all played their part and had their roles. Not like our society where everything is a dam compilation
That’s what we can do when we are not busy getting divided and ruled by the elites.
Ggggguuu
@@whyjamaica1422 I read a story where a group of baka made shelters, and the unmarried men didn't get one, and just slept in a cuddle pile outside. So it seems like there is something of a gender role at play in the house building.
But maybe those particular bachelors just felt like a cuddle pile idk.
The women build the house and men just come in to chill. Nothing wrong with that. But am inclined to ask the modern day woman "When did women stop building their own houses and move to a man's house?" Second question: "Whst exactly does a woman need from a man in marriage that she can't for herself?"
I love this....handed down from the ancestors .....
Such cooperation and good vibes.,God bless
I am so amazed what nature and earth can provide. Happy teamwork 👍🏽💯🇬🇧who invented brick and technology , created words like mortgage, rent, stress, hassle, depression.....worry
The Bankers are our. Downfall.
Awesome people . I hope the government makes sure they stay safe and keep their home areas.
True. Support politics and real charities working to preserve their dynamic/evolving social life.
I watched an almost identical film (though in black and white) when I was at school in 1960; it wasn't recent even then. Fascinating to see the crafts surviving.
They do simple manipulations of natural materials and the end result works perfectly for their needs. It's lovely to watch!
No corruption, no violence, no worry to pay bill, no jealousy, if we all can live like this, life will be more easy n happy
7 000 000 000 people on earth. We really need toilets! for example...
no corruption, no violence, no jealousy? HOW delusional can one person be ?

@@theb166-er3, dig a hole and poop in it and bury it. The world is not over-populated. The entire human population on earth can fit in the city limits of Jacksonville, Florida. You can drive in Texas for 3 days straight at 70+ mph and you would still be in Texas. The whole of the united states can fit in Africa 3 times. Supermarkets throw away 43 billion pounds of unused food each year.
@Daniel with more people our standard of living decreases. Our family has three acres you can’t have that with 20 billion people Also people need water and most people won’t live like these people so that’s gonna require lots more fossil fuel.
A best example of team work...
I love the fact that they did as a family..and put so much skill in it. I would love to smoke my herb and live there
I envy these people. Their lives is a struggle everyday yet they laugh and giggles.
Who says it's a struggle? Simple living off the land
@@DeeDee-hx1km you dont know how people treat pygmies in africa? its not nice
This is the true definition of living off the land.I would love to take some survival lessons from the these people who don’t have the luxury of going to the store to buy supplies and food
The food from the store is harmful. These people's lack of luxuries means they don't have lifestyle deseases. They also don't suffer from other things like dementia. They don't depend on pharmacies to function.
@@Komeshokakunanwene So true!
You must always be grateful for what God bless you with.
God bless.
I am a lady 75 in Oregon. And if the hut had a bed inside and a place for potty and place to cook. I would not mind staying in one myself. Very good .
The art of shelter building is using what's available around you to their best qualities and characteristics.
Absolutely beautiful fascinating, and inspiring in so many ways!
Always the woman work so hard much Love....
they're happy !
i'm envious!
Genial, muchas gracias por tomarse la paciencia para filmar este trabajo colectivo, felicitaciones. Las comunidades nativas son conocedoras de la naturaleza y de ellas podemos aprender.
You gotta love these minimalists these days
I made this leaves house when I was a kid and i play with the other kids and we are so happy. But we made it just for our playground and just for fun. But when i saw this video they absolutely made it for living house. It's just wow me.
Beautiful and environmentally friendly
no rent no Land Lord, everything organic
@Tim O'Brien How did you get free shelter?
@Tim O'Brien That is very inspiring to me. I wish to do something similar.
@Tim O'Brien or anyone really, I getting ready to move out of AmeriKa (hopefully before the end of May 2019) myself in hopefully 6 months....I am currently looking for land to purchase to live OFF-grid and be fully self-sustainable (solar panel & battery storage, rainwater catchment, biogas system[having an outhouse toilet running into it], and own fruit[take years to start giving edible frutit], root, & vegetable for food) with simple house structure for sleep (will be purchasing solar cooker, with back up biogas cooker for times when outdoor solar cooker is a great inconvenience). I don't know where in the world I will end up yet (but I know it won't be ANYWHERE in North America to include Canada), it seems like you enjoy the nomadic experience, whether you have lived in 26 homes in 12 years (your comment doesn't really clarify), but I don't plan on moving....just buying an acre/hectare or more....someplace that has road access (because unfortunately I have a ball & chain mustang just purchased[built online myself] last year, hence the trapping of a car that I current owe TWICE if what's it's worth....so I will be shipping it to whatever country I am moving to [hopefully, lenders will allow it or I will have to waste the money up front as opposed to having it available to go towards whatever land and or building purchase which would suck....but so is life I guess). So I am wondering how you came about on your selection? And where? I need someplace that is relatively safe without government (country or local) being a pest trying to restrict what type of housing structure, etc. nor trying to tax me to death once I have purchased the land cash. Any pointers?
@@nathaliewilson1817 write a book.
@@Phjghh What would the book be about?
amazing creation natural....
Over there when they say "One day I a going to have a house" they really mean ONE day.
Love it.
You're funny😅😅😅
Lots of male chatter and laughter but none is helping .Wow.
Oh! they only help at the end eh?😒
hearing the little baby assertively boss everyone around is priceless ... and timeless too xD
That is so charming and it look like it would be cool inside. I wonder if they ever weave floor cloths for additional comfort. And if it rains, it will definitely stay dry with the layers and slippery surface of the leaves.
I enjoyed! All Natural Living in a natural environment I believe is the best. Thanks for sharing.
In Việt Nam, we use these leaves to wrap traditional cake called CHƯNG( which means SHOWING)
It's GOOD to see them HAPPY.
This is the real and best way of living . Beautiful!
Humans are amazing! We can make a home out of practically anything!
Definitely one of the better designs ☆♡☆
No Blueprint required just Beautiful Minds and Hands.Peace
Amazing so much love and tranquility
Great design and happy people
Классно,молодцы женщины!
Ни кридиты,ни ипотеки не нужны,так дружненько!
The basket backpack is artwork.
Excellent build!!!
👍👍I love channel showing something like this
Simple happy life
I feel real stupid right now, I'm n the USA complaining about the color of my bathroom wall while my people are happy satisfied grateful and thankful living with the smallest things life has to offer
Wait till 2020, you're gunna love it. 😆
"my people" where was you born ?
If you don’t WANT to be AMERICAN, really your in the wrong place. I’m not trying to be rude, but it’s true.
l.l.
I wanted to be there. Beautiful.
I noticed the safety marshal didn't show up until after the hut was finished. Must have been bribed into staying away for awhile.
The knowledge and skill these folks possess would be great to learn for survivalist types. They're living proof that one can do a lot with only a knife and a brain.
What a peaceful life. No insurance, no credit bearu,
They live peaceful very short lives.
@@wanaraz who says their lives are short ?
@Marie Marsee it's about perspective
@@DeeDee-hx1km Many studies of every people on planet earth.
Real peace. Awesome
Imagine all the knowledge of crafts that we have already lost
Lol, and that’s a good thing. Imagine all the great architectural skills we have gained and continue to gain!
@Stormy Colours lol, yes I’m sure we have lost some knowledge/expertise but building this leafy hut is not one of them
@So Cool1 if it wasn’t for them “white dudes” you would be still living in that “crafted” leaf hut. There is nothing worth “crafty” about that hut, you ever hear of innate knowledge? Like if your caught in a rain storm, what do you do, answer, seek shelter.
@So Cool1 lol, wrong again. If it wasn’t for them “white dudes” you would not have America. I strongly suggest you stay in school (or go back to school) and study history, real history not the BS the woke morons try to feed everyone. And btw, nothing is stopping you from living in that hut right now, that’s the great thing about America. Just remember, no air conditioning, no heat, no indoor plumbing, etc.... enjoy your crafted life.
@@peteorzech260 white dudes were living In huts for the most part of their history while Asia /africa and Mediterranean people were living in massive cities.without Greek ,europe will still be in the stone age,infact iron age was earlier in west africa than in all of europe ,when you were in the stone age most of Africa were already in iron age..gtfoh and get off your high horse, not one culture made /invented anything without influence,every humans contributed ,before you say greek are Europeans yes , Same way Egyptians are African doesn't mean western,northern and eastern Europeans Built anything spectacular without influence,check out thousands of years of structures built by east africa ,heck mostly isolated west affrica and great zimbabwe in the south all built things,greek also shares more DNA with middle eastern than with Europeans. Bye
this channel is such an awesome find.
So neat and clean
Priceless!!! Keep good work. 😄😀💜💚😁
Much better concept than skid row. No time for luxury. 😊🇺🇸
Thank you for sharing this intimate view in pygmy communal life. Buildings remind me of willow domes, living structures.
the house is so beautiful
The best part is all the materials were free!
God body god gifts god children .. praise nature , be thankful for the forward thinkers but also never lose touch with your true spirit. If the day ever come learning some of this stuff will be helpful, remember it’s already in everyone . Before we got here, we where there ! Peace
Very creative!
I belong to the North Eastern tribe of India and we use these leaves for packing...🙂
Meravogliosa impresa edile in totale armonia tra le persone e la natura , c'e' tutto da imparare da queste persone !
Creating with nature. Amazing!
It looks like an iglu from the forest, haha, cool, very good house, sustainable
Knowledge and wisdom more precious than gold and silver.😊💖
Esse.povo.e valente
These folks in the Western world need to take note, we don't need a 12 room house to be happy.
says who ??? just by watching a video u jumped to conclusion , all while being under a blanket in your mom's basement ??? fucking virtue signalers. Did you first try living here to know is happier ??
I know, in only 20 years and I my family and my community had already forgotten about a bed that sleep more than 2 people to one to her/his own bed room too. Whether in SE Asia or here in the US, we used to sleep 5 or more to a bed and the whole family to a bed room and now we had also changed so much as well. Missing those days.
But I do need wifi
We in the western world understand this completely already...we even mastered tents and living out of vans, seriously...but this is much more organic
Very Beautiful, and don't call it poor
Yes that's ture. So relaxed.l absolutely love watching. 💙
Ofcourse i do believe in the idea of sharing , helping, and understanding to be the most successful richness
I see no poverty at all...that is Human coexistence with nature as the lord intended
Intercooler house wow,,,,,,
I see our own poverty in the Nike rags though.
The sounds of the village as the house goes up.. 💚
Gosto de ver esses vídeos de ver como eles vivem o modo que faz sua casa e sao animado
I WOULDN'T MIND WALKING IN ONE. JUST TO SEE HOW IT FEELS.
God's grace and mercy🙏
Bahagia itu sederhana. Ini kebahagiaan yang sesungguhnya. Salut!!!!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 love from🇲🇨🇲🇨🇲🇨
Todas esas personas dormiran ahi adentro, y cuando esas hojas se pudran imaginense el olor
Happy Folks! Hope no one goes there to teach them how to live and mess their happy lives up.
Wh Chan exactly
With climate change depending on where they are they might not have a home always.
brandon g lol climate change it’s not true if it is why haven’t they moved in centuries
Can anyone tell me what leaves the Pygmy people eat? I've seen videos of them mashing large green leaves down to eat but have never found pout what plant this is?
//;_"-£::+:"£*'":+(;;-"*&889
I see these leaf look a like a kind of leaf to cook for a traditional cake in Viet Nam. We call it is chưng cake . It's often make on the Tết holiday (on spring)
The unity. The love
cool! Same sort of design as a hazel bender that people used to build in Britain
Hard workers and people that life a very fresh kind of life undoubtedly
I love the documentary like this..👍👍👍 in sarawak we call thatnleave as daun buan and daun lirik..good job ladies..i really adore u guys..
Super creative.. 💓💓💓 from indonesia
beautiful❤️
I wish I had been born into culture like theirs.
Last humans and tribes who actually can connect to nature. We the so called civilised people are living a life I’m
Not sure we meant to.
Go move there and embrace their culture then.
Good to know my kids aren't the only ones sceaming out at mom.
This is amazing...if I ever get stranded in the wilderness I’m building one of these LOL....I’m not kidding...I kind of want to try it in my backyard...
If one considers bugging out for atleast a week or so, these hut can really be useful..warm and coshy.
Life of these community is enviably just simply simple and no hustle. Just consider raising a family and providing them with food "on the table"..
Amazing!
Organic house 😊
The way they wrap the vines around each other at the start is brilliant, so simple but yet so effective
Amazing Masya Allah..sweet home
Thank you!
Amazing human creativity. These are not any different from the ice igloos in the north pole/artic.
Beautiful hut
As a person who lives in the west where living is always about money it's cool to see how close to nature these people live! These people are truly free.
Hmmm, fairly free. Unfortunately logging has pushed them right to the edge of protected forests where they are up against wardens telling them they cannot hunt.
@@NomadArchitecturesad 😢
@@NomadArchitecture The Pygmy has been there longer than the wardens. They the Pygmys own the land right?
thanks for sharing
Amazing.
No rent to pay, a relaxed self sufficient lifestyle
