- In the north of Chad, in the heart of the Sahara desert, lies a forgotten mountain massif, which shelters, in its secret canyons, a flora and fauna of breathtaking beauty.
In 1950, Hubert Gillet, a professor at the Museum of Natural History in Paris, began to explore this lost paradise. For more than a decade, he traveled through these mysterious mountains, on the back of a camel, discovering “a unique flora and fauna, relics of a golden age, which has survived in the depths of the Sahara Desert”.
Even today, access to the Ennedi massif is difficult, and only a few rare nomads have been privileged enough to penetrate the heart of this astounding massif.

The music was outstanding. It sounded very ancient and mysterious.
Yes! I wonder who it's by?

@@ernestlujan9164 I also wonder.
It's Sufi misic singing the name of God "Ya Haye" the ever living.
It reminds me ''Lament Sufi music''
Sitting under a mahogany tree watching the sun go down here in Ghana west Africa and the time is 17:24GMT. This is a true miracle… hats off to the entire crew and thank you SLICE for linking us to our origins and cultural heritage 🤝

An amazing documentary ❤ I Love Africa and the Beautiful African people ❤
hello friend !
@@swetsTV Hello 👋🏻
Isn't the sahara far from Ghana?
Truly wonderful. Makes me think this kind of training is about 90 % of schooling that a child actually needs. Would like to see this same level of detail to record the lives of the women of these people. Thanks for great work.
Emma, I definitely agree - to both your points!

A wonderful documentary that had a meditative quality about it. A stillness came over me watching the gentle rhythmic pace of man, animal and nature. The wonder of Africa and it's people.
This is indeed a piece of paradise in the midst of a very harsh environment.
Paradise is in the afterlife, not in this world. Actually ,There is no mistake in The Quran but there is many mistakes in the Bible that the Quran mentions correctly such as the position of the leader in Egypt in the society of Prophet Yusuf (Joseph). The Quran mentions he was a king and the Bible mentions he was a pharaoh. The Quran is correct and more recently the Rosetta Stone was decoded and what was found is that leader was a king and not a pharaoh. Islam is The true religion with undeniable proof and evidence. We Muslims believe in Jesus but not as God and we don’t believe God has a son. Jesus peace be upon him is a prophet and Messenger Of Allah (God) and he is the messiah. He wasn’t killed as Allah saved him before they could get to him. There is also scientific and historical miracles mentioned in the Quran such as the formation of the human embryo as well as the creation of honey in bees. There are Islamic prophecies that came true and will come true and I recommend everyone to try and learn about them. I myself know of people who were ill and suffering with issues (including black magic) and got cured miraculously when the Quran was recited over them. I invite everyone to learn about Islam.
What a beautiful documentary, thank you for the posting. It's glorious. I wonder how many boys in the west of the age of the lad in this story, would happily throw away their computers, toss away their mobile phones, abandon for ever computer games and the virtual world, to go and live like him, in quiet purity, with a herd of camels, in utter balance and harmony with everything that has real value on earth? And by the way, the solo singing of the man in this documentary is completely beautiful.
A BIG thumbs up to the guys who made this truly amazing documentary just felt like I was there travelling with them the whole time.
Watching this has actually been time well spent, what beautiful storytelling and beautiful videography. I love the slice channel, it’s the only enrichment on the tube
Unbelievably beautiful and magnificent ! Those traveler's have done this for thousands of years. There is life in the Sahara and the 🏝️ 🏜️
What a beautiful and amazing documentary.
Thank you for sharing this.
What a beautiful documentary like l have never seen before, everything looks so real, I feel like I want to live there too !! I had no idea crocodiles could survive in the desert !! Wonderful life , wonderful desert 🐪 !!! Loved seeing camels drinking water all together and was surprised how much water there is in such a dry place !! Love music too , so enchanting and mystic !!❤❤❤
This amazing, astounding & awesome nature documentary simply unfolds us to witness & discern how intrigued & mysterious our planet is depending on the different regions. Moreover, the fact that we can enjoy watching it on TH-cam for free is nothing but invaluable & priceless. I'm highly gratified w/ it to the fullest. Many thanks for Slice. (05/08/22)
Awesomized? Lol

I cant live like that but im surprised how amazing they are.
@@hannatan8452 Neither can I,,,,Utterly agree w/ you!! Stay away & healthy amidst the dour plight of the omicron virus rampant worldwide or pandemic. Have a great day wherever you are,,,,,From Tokyo,,,,,,(05/11/22)
@@Peckerwood1503 Pls don't disparage, denigrate & berate me!! That's not nice but offensively impolite, & you are so uncivilized.( Only a bully does such a mean & nasty thing,,,,You must be an American w/out qualms),,Would you feel better by doing so?? If so, you must be a sociopath hands down. In addition to English, I understand Chinese & Korean which I studied when in the Tokyo Univ. but that was several decades ago,,,Now I'm in my twilight time or have been retired.

Wow! I was mesmerized by every moment of this video. What a beautiful place. Once again your work has introduced me to an existence beyond my wildest imaginings. You have connected me to my human family so far removed. The audio was sublime. Voices of camels echoing through the canyon. Magical. Thank you for bringing this place and these people to my world via my little kitchen tv.
Bellísimo vídeo..
Muchas gracias..!!!!!

Marvelous! Marvelous! Thank you for sharing your wonderful experience and knowledge.
Omg YES i have been waiting for a full length. I have watched ALL your vids. Some several times. I Love This Channel!
Great isn't it? Why so few views is my question. This channel should be blowing up.
Merci beaucoup! So much gratitude to SLICE for an exceptionally job well done. Phenomenal documentation. What exquisite formation of the rocks!..the plam trees flowers birdies baboons small rivers/streams alll in the now desert lands. Fabulous music...
wow, absolutely wonderful filming, genuine place, story, historical back looking, - stunning Sahara ! my respect for the people. Great Docu. ! 🙌Thank you SLICE💖
So captivating, was the video from start to finish.. It is nearly 7 in the morning, and I am already late for bed.. A huge salute to Hubert Gillet, possibly the pioneer of the theory that the Sahara has not always been the way it has been, and that it has advanced.. Thanks a lot Slice, for bringing us this video!
Crazy that the lost camel had a camera with it when it got lost!…good thing it knows how to vlog! 🤗
Was thinking the same. That camel will go far.
it knew how to be dramatic too like omg I almost died in the canyon by myself waaaahhhh
It also has its own TH-cam channel.
When Stress and attack by other animals knows to call 911 or the Apaches for defense, good job,buddy.
@@princejones0077 😆
Wow! Thank you slice for this wonderful vidio.congrats!
This documentary is extraordinary! TY so much. Happy to have discovered your channel!
The people portrayed in this video are amazing . Their ability to adapt the land is a great example of intelligent adaptation . I would enjoy meeting these people .
Another beautifully produced SLICE doc. Thank you so much.
Another irrefutably, indisputably & incontrovertibly so mesmerizing, magnificent, majestic, singular, superb & superlative nat. doc. that I'm in utter awe of all the people who participated in the creation of this extraordinary doc. i.e., camera men, sound men ( including that efficacious background music composer ), the rest of the crew, editors & a producer inclusive of an excellent script writer as well as fabulous narrator. Moreover, it is edifying & informative!! Hands down, they all deserve a huge pad on their back, or I'd willingly bestow my highest commendation upon them. Much obliged to SLICE for this doc..

@@worldcitizeng6507 Thanks for your kind & thoughtful information. Stay safe amidst the dire plight of the omicron virus pandemic,,,Have a great day wherever you are. From Tokyo,,,,(05/23/22)
superb documentry, beautiful photo ghaphy. simple life style , so close to nature, all its outstanding .
AWESOME DOC ....
Wow, crocs in the dessert ? In fact, there is so much we don’t know about nature and the current state of nature
The sahara was once a wet paradise
Those sandstone labyrinth at 29:10 are both amazing and terrifying.
You really have to know what you're doing to not get lost in there.
This documentary has me completely fascinated with Chad. I really want to go there.
EDIT: The only thing terrible about this documentary is that it had to end.
One thing I would like to do before I depart this Earth is visit Chad.
It looks incredible.
No kidding.... quite possibly the Ultimate Labyrinth
Similar cave drawings can be found in Wadi Rum, Jordan. It's more accessible from the famous movie made there Lawrence of the Arabian and Martians. The guides have 2 days package to show tourists the stunning 🏜.
For Sahara tour, Morocco has many package tours available by mini van, tourists from around the world get to spend a night sleeping under the stars
The fact the boy could swim astonished me beyond measure. A child who was born and raised in the desert can swim!
So beautiful! This one is for the book. God bless!
Man, the echos in the canyon of the camels growling at 3:13 would be a bit intimidating if you didn't know what was making the sound.
This documentary is absolutely amazing!
I love deserts. Thanks for this beautiful video!
Really good show. Im amazed at Sahara having a tiny bit like here, tropics. That palm looks like our licuala palm..or it gets called Livingstonia, huge umbrella shaped leaves. The trees are pimitive..
The sufi mystic music really takes you in..
I received it. It seems to be very interesting. I am looking forward to watching it. Thank you!
🌿🙂🐪❤🌿
This is utterly exotic & rare natural beauty of the Sahara's secret garden, i.e., I usually associate the desert w/ interminable sand dune (when it comes to the deserts such as Sahara, Gobi, Taklamakan etc.), but this doc. pleasantly surprised me w/ that ineffable extreme & yet resplendent landscape w/ the one & only one spectacular sceneries, which differentiates itself from the other desert documentaries. Furthermore, people can survive w/ the minimal provision & of course water even in such harsh hostile & extreme place, that is simply amazing & mind-blowing!!! Many thanks.,,,,,(05/18/22)
Gorgeous photography the pictures are stunning. It's hard to contemplate the effort and thought it must have taken.
I can't agree more. You have a marvelous rest of Friday, & wk end. Stay safe & health as well wherever you are.@@ramondasch5271
Long videos like this is what I was anticipating
the little boy is brave ,like a young David
Thank you SLICE. Beautiful documentary 👏 ❤️
Thanks for another Slice of the world🔥🔥💚💚
I learned a lot from this beautiful documentary.
Wow! Slice thank you!👏👏👏👍👍👍
Thank you! Nice.work!! 1👍
The best documentary I've seen in recent times.
Excellent, thanks. Exceptionally beautiful features of rock formations created by the wind---- the yardung.
All creatures great and small have a wonderful ability to adapt and pass on the to the next generation that which is needed for survival; Oh how special life can be when we can allow it to happen unimpeded or recklessly destroyed. Truly enjoyed this documentary thankyou to all involved.
Everything about this documentary is fascinating. Its vediography, narration script, narrator's voice,...professor's lifelong search for a garden in sahara.
The best channel ❤️❤️❤️
I enjoyed watching your video thank you.
Excellent slow paced and relaxing
The boy can swim and was born in the sahara desert ❤ amazing
Such a breathtaking unique landscapes👍♥️
So Many mysteries unanswered on Earth
Wonderful documentary. Thankyou!
Such a fascinating and informative video.
In the comments some have said why this video has not massive views? because it needs likes to go ahead in the algorithms, so just give it a like.
Absolutely amazing the Egyptian people and the ancient history of the people life in the desert
How they are living with They animals .
Thank you, slice for sharing this amazing documentary. Wow..the hidden eden in Sahara
Thanks for sharing this docu.
Awesome documentary - rich history, amazing scenes, and soul touching background music.
Very nice I love this kind of documentaries 🙏❤️
Thank you sir 🙏
You are welcome
Magical!
Awesome, I love it. Thank you for sharing.
The presence of crocodiles & baboons at the oasis, & that extraordinary, mysterious & unique landscapes & its sceneries are unlike anything I have encountered before in the desert documentaries. That is why this nat. doc. is distinguished itself from the rest. Anyone agree w/ me in that regard? (05/29/22)
Thank you for all the great info.
Absolutely amazing video.
Beautiful and an enchanting documentary ❤
Well prepared documentary. I enjoyed and I will watch many times
Beautiful document Thankyou 🙏🏽 I will see it again.
Upon seeing this singular Sahara desert doc. again today, the following thought crossed my mind ; albeit most of us comment on those photographers who had to spend nights & days w/ an infinite patience in order to procure those momentous shots one after another in the face of some adverse conditions, I feel both a script writer & a narrator deserve my kudos for a job well done. The script writer who is brilliant & sagacious & the narrator w/ a sort of soft-pitched & dignified tone of voice significantly contribute to the enhancement of a wealth of intrigue, thrill, & excitement on this documentary. Thus, they certainly deserve a huge pat on the back.,,,,,I wonder if anyone else perceive the same as me?!,,,,,Many thanks,,,,,From California,,,,,,(01/22/23)
Wonderful documentary of time
.
Truly an amazing documentary...loved it 👏😍 and even showed me mysterious things in desert 🏝️🏜️ like crocodile 🐊....
Thank you for sharing this epic discovery 🔥🔥🔥🔥💚💚💚
Amazing views and wonderful life 🌹🍀🙏🌷❤
Great content 👍
Fascinating video .Great job👏👍
23:00- 24:47 i dont know what he sings but the sounds and the vieuw is beautifull
وثائقي دسم جداً 🇸🇦
i really needed this to relax me. thx
About the cave paintings he said, "The men had rounded heads" they're called AFROS🙄 I've seen paintings in Egyptian tombs with the same round Afro hair and the Afro combs they used to pick them out. The Beja people of the Horne of Africa still wear this style and keep the Afro pics in their heads.🙄
I was amazed on how they look like my people and I am from somlia, these people still deny that North Africa was inhibited by the same people you see in the video because they still live there just not showing them. The amazigh people of eljeria and Morocco.
very good!
Lovely, Thank you...
Thank you for these beautiful informative videos 🌹
How fascinating: looking at 8,000-yr old cave drawings while boiling packaged spaghetti! Great people, great place, great story!
#4 on comment section.......from Philippines with love...🇵🇭
Merci beaucoups! Trés interessant et nostalgique!
Truly a beautiful part of this planet. We are very fortunate to get a small glimpse of these Desert Springs beneath the Efendi massif. There is a longing in us to return to the essence of life, a force of nature that Man only plays a part of the cycle of life, not the dominant role. It is best we only dream of this place and never actually go there.
Nice and dashing documentary
Just beautiful
Very educative and informative piece of history.Information passing down from our elders are valuable and vital to us indigenous people of the Land.Just like in the Pacific Island.
It is what "western culture" has lost.
SIMPLY MAGICAL...
Thank you!

Phenomenal!!!
