The people living in the tribes are incredibly intelligent, able to live in their world, while understanding the world of the cities. They are not simple people at all. If we truly believe in human rights, we would be protecting not only the environment but also people who live there and depend on it, who live so very differently from us. What a beautiful people they are.
But the thing about it is that civilization is changing things all around us . It is the same in Africa where I come from . People need to change because the world is changing .
@@williamababio6616 Even in America, we have areas where people live differently, though. Like the Amish. Those living off-grid, etc. If there is an area of land available for them to live, why not let them be? If they choose that life?
Absolutely; beautifully said
Absolutely
@@imlistening1137 agreed 100000% I actually would prefer this type of simple living. Much more peaceful
Such a beautiful documentary has so less views. Who ever is reading this, plz preserve and continue your forefathers culture and tradition. Thank you research team for documenting and preserving for set of traditional knowledge system and amazing people and about their culture. I loved watching this, since I myself being a tribesmen from NE India.
I also wondering why it's only few watching while this documentary was so beautiful..maybe now a days people's wants like they don't like the olden lives
Wonderful
Look their face,There is no difference between North East India
its the second time i watched this documentary..The reason for such poor intrest in a documentary like this is men's greed... also some may have guilty conciences and hate it when their inner voices ask them 'what are you going to do about the issue'? Dismissing it, and choosing the easy way out, buy putting it into the to hard basket. Where atually everyone should partition these callus governments to stop their destractions.
What's wrong with you people? It has over a million views in 1 year. That's very good. Not every channel puts out pure clickbait. It's doing well.
Love your land and fight for it. Keep your traditions and arrow making alive
Beautiful & amazing !😭🙌🏾
Best doco I’ve seen in ages. Thank you for this awesome glimpse into their indigenous way of village life in the Amazon, bought tears to my eyes watching all the villagers adorn and paint their bodies❤️
When I was a teen (I am 70)I saw a photo of developers in the Amazon. They had captured an indigenous man. Stripped and hung him upside down by his feet. I’ve never forgotten that picture.
So sad 😭
saudações do Brasil 🇧🇷😊👍
Horrible the way humans treat each other
Oh, dear God. Seeing that photo would be traumatizing to me, too. Why?
How sad. This is awful to hear. Why do humans want to hurt or destroy what they do not understand?
Couldn't stop myself from dropping few words...... amazing people and amazing documentary. The scene of tribal chants around the fire at night and above them, the wasp inside their hive seems like both the group of warriors are preparing themselves for the next big battle. Just amazing
Colonizers, slavery , greed, education , wars and money killed the land and people
Ni
I’ve never seen woman so protective and genuine over men they care for. It’s real. Woman are scared for them and are willing to take the pain too 😥😢 I am stunned!
I really wanna sit beside all the villages old chief's and listen to their folktales. ❤️
Such an amazing documentary! God bless you all for making and producing such an educational and inspiring craft. Thank you Slice Team😘
Thank you for this. I couldn't stop watching and found such a love in my heart for these people .
You know it is very painful when grown men starts crying
I cried just WATCHING this!
Why is it always a beautiful thing that is being Threatened by some outside force under the banner of progress. Such beautiful people and willing to say no. They have my respect.
Love their bravery but at the end of the day they have already lost 😔 these people's lands should be protected because one day we will need their help to go back to the old ways!

I'm afraid the old ways are dead and gone
EU ACABEI DE ENTREGAR TEU NOME E IP PARA AS FORCAS ARMADAS DO BRASIL. VOCÊ ESTÁ SENDO RASTREADO AGORA PELO GOVERNO DO BRASIL AGORA.
Beautiful documentary. Hard and difficult work to make something like this. It shows the courage, love and dignity of the people. Respect to you all.
Stunning videography of a very brave first nation, we have so much to learn
Thank you for this doc. Trinidad & Tobago.
😭😭😭 I love Amazon's tribal people please don't destroy their jungles and their homes and families 😭😭❤️❤️ god please protect your children
That was mesmerizing! Incredible.
Great job in making and sharing this. Thank you.
Excellent documentary. I admire the persistent of the elders into preserving their beautiful culture .
Thank you for posting. ❤️
@@zedianerkatwishi3930 Yes. It's painful.
Good you women..be ready to fight if needed. You are all so strong. I am proud of you. Best wishes and prayers to you and your families.
Great documentary such a shame they are losing their forrests and land!

South American governments are so corrupt. The Brazilian one is the worst of all.
This was a remarkable one. Thanks

Beptoy and Baka are the true army of wasp-men. Such a extraordinary and beautiful people of mother earth. Excellent documentary. Thanks @SLICE for this documentary...
I must have missed something. Are Beptoy and Baka the names of people in this? Last time I heard the name Baka, it's the name of a tribe of Pygmies in central Africa, in and near the Congo.
Wow! This is a beautiful culture with strong in depth traditional values. Thanks for sharing!🥰🙏
Thank you Slice awesome Documentary👍
Leave the people and THEIR land alone. Has history not taught us that we have ruined and commercialized too many cultures? Now languages and cultures are lost
👍🇺🇲, absolutely....raping,pillaging Indian land,war,slavery.... abominations...to grab land,$$$$$..... And look where it has gotten the human race...✌️
True but you wouldn't have internet to send this comment if we didn't 🤣🤦♂️
Why are you against diversity??
Heather Gustafson well said but unfortunately hu-man like the other commenters on this thread won’t see it that way
@@MillerJW100 yes it is a fallacy of humans
The social construct is wrong
It's amazing to see all the different tribes in S. America, especially the ones along The Amazon.
The power of the wasp, ib the eyes of this tribe, is the power to move forward for the sake of the family, and not worry about death or pain, and fight without fear.
Beautiful people. Excellent documentary. The passion the elders have to pass along tradition is a beautiful thing.
There are a lot of naive comments here retelling the old "noble/beautiful/moral" myths about indigenous cultures. This is an extremely interesting doc primarily about the wasp ritual as a right of passage for young men. There is very little else about the culture except for what you can see from clues in the background. (It was enough to focus here on the wasp theme). Sociologists who have studied these kinds of societies may have some surprising news for some of you. I know nothing of this particular tribe, but I'd guess they exhibit some of the same traits as many other similar forest cultures. These probably include cruelty, love, violence, abuse, greed, rape, caring, sympathy and hatred. Kind of like us!
Great video very fit looking men women must be the natural food they eat. They are in tune with the forest and animals very moral people with Good principles we could learn a lot from their culture. They don't kill the wasps but see them is their equals
From the women's clothes & men's shorts its obvious the cities have reached them. This documentary seems like they were asked to play out their traditional rituals
@@tyc1Z.Z1 Just because they have dirt cheap factory clothes? Ridiculous.
this is where we all came from. I would choose. this life over the "civilized" world
I think I'd rather remain among the civilized .🤔
That's a little too far back for me.
@@jaybee5832 I'm sure, you just haven't seen enough bullshit in life. not that I want you too but, youre the type to only see what's on the surface, enjoy the lies of civilization.
@@JunKing1 I think i can enjoy better things than getting my A$$ stung to prove I'm a man.
This is outrageous & outlawed in the civilized world because it's nothing more than hazing. 😐
WHICH CIVILIZED WORLD THE MONSTERS CITIES THE HOMELESS THE VACCINES TO LIVE WITH THE PSYCHOLOGIST A HAIRDRESSER ACCOUNTANT BOSS DANEPE AND
PLASTIC SURGERY MAKEUP EXPERIMENTS ON ANIMALS EXOTIC PETS TOURISM DESTROYING WHO LIVES SO SICK
interesting to see how much these women care for their families men and clan. we dont see this anywhere except in religious women in the west. it is becoming a rare trait
great touch in translating children's at play. We are so much alike.
Beautiful human being
The passion of war in music and dance now that's a powerful movement
Quite intense and emotional documentary.
Big respect to this people
UNBELIEVABLY OUTSTANDING DOCUMENTARY! 5 STARS!
Excellent documentary. Loved it
A deep connection to the land and one’s place in the grander scheme of things such as these people experience , is at the root of the emptiness that afflicts modern man
Very well said. Thank you! ❤
Such a great video. Those young man are amazing.
I feel as if I have lived toy that way in a previous life. This is why “civilized” people are never satisfied. True we need clothing and food and a means of water and waste disposal, but in an area where people are spread out and the weak are killed by nature, the human becomes stronger and thus strength is a dominant trait in the genetics.
I remember never being happier than to work and sweat under the sun every day and hew good it was to eat and wash and drink and breathe., not worrying about a car or rent or oppression. This is how life is meant to be. Who needs so many humans if they do not take care of that which created them?
Mankind will always survive and nature will win, be it as it may by a pandemic or natural forces. And that is good.
dont do drugs kids, and dont day drink.
Then go to those places...djiez
Thanks for all your documentaries. I've been following you steadily. Wish to be a participant of your team someday.

This docu is 20 years ago tho, atleast some of them
So great!!! Thank you very much.
AMAZING. STRONGER AND STRONGER.💯🙏❤👍🏻
Incredible insight into how we've lost community spirit for the most part in the west
It's so sad to know that with-in the next decade their way of life will be taken over by the industrial complex, which is, currently destroying their land, and the rain forests of Brazil. Dam Catholic charities as well. They will try to tell them their living a life of sin and poverty. I pray that God protects these tribes against the ruthless.
How beautiful they all are
Worth watching tuned 🇰🇪

Love to watch this kind of documentary.. people living in the tribes are incredibly intelligent and a true survivor❤❤
Beautiful documentary

These men are brave enough just to climb that ladder into the heavens let alone beating the crap out of a big hornet's nest knowing you will feel pain like you never felt pain before. That's brave in anybody's books
Well in my culture, stepping into the ring with Mike Tyson is where you meet pain.
Brave? How about "insane"?
@@scottowensbyable Yes because Mike Tyson is in every corner, and has been around for thousands of years.
@@scottowensbyable That's just pure stupidity, and it accomplishes nothing.
Thx for this great video ♥️
Thank you for this
I AM ON THE KAYAPO’S SIDE! AND HAVE BEEN SINCE I FIRST LEARNT OF THE MANY THREATS TO THE AMAZON AND ALL OF IT’S INHABITANTS, WHEN I WAS YOUNGER AND MADE AN ART PIECE AT TAFE ABOUT IT. THAT WAS IN 1989. I HAD USED NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC MATERIAL AS REFERENCE. NOTHING HAS CHANGED. I WAS 16 THEN, I AM 50 NOW. TYPICAL OF SOME HUMANS. THEY WONT REALIZE WHAT THEY’VE DONE TILL IT’S TOO LATE. VALUING THE WRONG THINGS ABOVE MOTHER NATURE, TRIBAL PEOPLE, AND ALL THE WILDLIFE. MUCH LOVE FROM AUSTRALIA.❤️🙏
I lived some months in Kapot, the Metuktire Kayapo village led by the chiefs Yobau and Rop Ni (the whites call him Raoni). It was in the 80s, i was young and the Kayapo warriors still killed white invaders of their land. I learned to respect their culture, their way of life and to love them. A wonderful people, who could teach al lot of wisdom to "civilized" people. In Australia, the true Aboriginal people also know the "secrets" of nature.
I woulf like to see that piece of art if possible. Nice day
Always watching from Philippines
Maybe you should worry about the Indigenous black people of the Philippines and stop worrying about native Americans that have nothing to do with you
Buang ka?
@@Shel230 what does that have to do with it?
@@migspeculates wym lol why worry about other people's native people when your native people aren't doing good
@@Shel230 you are making an ass of you, him and me. good job. we are simply watching the documentary. have a great day pal!
Three wasps stung me bra that's freakin hurt.. we talking hundreds of wasps.. that's crazy.. respect to these people and their culture
I can’t say I wasn’t worried that one of men or even one of the women and children were about to have an anaphylactic reaction and die. But I think that because they have been getting stung by the wasps from a young age that an immunity that gets stronger over time. This is off topic but after watching numerous documentaries about different tribes, I started to think about the probability that they don’t have issues with child abuse or sexual crimes or murders. It really makes me feel like becoming modernized, placing value on material things and being lost and without family even though we live amongst thousands of people is what will be the end of humanity as we know it. Who needs money when you live off the land and remembering that it takes a village to raise a child
Yes, getting swarmed and getting stung is not a walk in the park. Oddly my brother and I hacked into a nest while clearing a path. Woke up a day later in the field hospital with welts all over, but thereafter ants and other insects wouldn't go near us. Ants wouldn't bite or get on our bare feet. It does leave an awful taste in your mouth. Never had trouble with bees either, but that was over 40 years ago and even in our late years, bugs keep their distance.
@@nbk9372 that’s pretty interesting. Could be worth it if you could get the same result with fewer stings lol
@@nikkikidd8428 Ikr, listen wasp only 20 of you can....zip zip zip...CLUNK!!! ;o)
I am a deeply spiritual person and my relationship with the natural world of the utmost importance. On the other hand it is very easy for us Western Europeans romanticize indigenous existence. On the one hand I believe it helps people become more of what is vest in being human. On the other is a hard, demanding life. Lifespan is shorter, medicine less effective and starvation always around the corner. And these people continue to suffer from our actions, as is very part of the message of this documentary. The the traditional life of the indigenous people of the Amazon is under attack and threatened with extinction by the greed of capitalism. May the universe protect them.
What great elders this tribe has. I'm not convinced that was the one elders last attack, he was trying hard to convince himself it was. May all the people of this tribe and land continue to prosper.
Thank you for this. In my heart I am with you. I am from the hawk zodiac and the wasp and hornets are my totems to. I love them and they love me. We love water's that flow freely and gentle and we only attack to defend.
Never forget this Amazon tribes, the wasp gives you the medicine gift of sacred defense. DEFENDING YOURSELF AND YOUR WORLD
Learn from the movy Avatar you need to return to the root language of your forest to let the whole forest fite with you.
Then Great Spirit can do Great Miracle of Defence through all of you.
You are the Teachers, you have to teach the whole world that Gia is Alive. You have to wake modern man up to the truth that they are the Monster nest that needs to be destroyed in the way they think ack towards nature.
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH FOR 5HE RIVERS FLOWS THROUGH ME AND THE WATER FALLS RUN FROM MY EYES FOR YOU MY BELOVED EARTH CHILDREN
PLEASE take my message to this tribe.
that was amazing thank you for sharing
A wonderful story. Full of insight. However, when I see aerial views of their home... it is all flat land. !!
To flood above them, would leave the desolate.
Nice video thank you 😊
such a beautiful documentary
Just amazing... excellent documentary.
👏 thanks
Потрясающе!
Nice documentary SLICE keep uploading interesting doc. But pls. Nxt time make your audio a little louder
تشکر برای ویدیوی خوبت
What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger 💪🏽
Amazing documentary 👏 ❤️
So sad and yet still a beautiful and brave people. We should really protect these people from people like us
U Just take take we should learn to live and let live
Save the Amazon forest and people.
Parents of Western Civilisation to kids " Yes, lounge around and indulge yourselves with your digital devices"
Parents of Kayapó kids "Yes, jump 30ft from the trees into the river"...a better future for some
I laughed when the kids teased the wasps.
I've done it a few times, only without telling my friends 👉🤣
My grandfather told me to use a torch and gasoline. Nothing healed my experience except thinking why my grandpa baited me to attack it.
I was laughing at his grave.
I became expert fighting the wasp, my latest attack was using my DRONE.
I did a quick search for info concerning the Kayapo. Generally, aside from traditional mores and tasks for young men, such expenditure of energy is usually associated with getting honey, which associated citings indicated, indeed honey is collected, but nothing was mentioned in the video. These indians, also, deal with the isula-ant, the 'veinte-cuatro-hora' ants, because the painful sting lasts for 24-hours. Ants were mentioned in the video, but it seemed like the stings were endured above at the nest. DA Posey, an anthropological entomologist referred to the ants as sting-less. It surely didn't look like they were stingless!
Military training throughout the world subjects new recruits to extreme discomfort. This is for building strength and ignoring pain. While this is certainly more of a magical approach, the basic concept is exactly the same: to prepare warriors for the harsh realities of war. With Navy Seals, Army Rangers etc. the torture is so severe that only a small percentage can succeed. With this system, once at the top of the ladder a candidate is pretty locked in to completing the program, "dropping out" from such a height would likely be fatal, and would certainly break bones. Seriously hard core stuff!
Handsome people
Always watch a good knowledgeable and honest presentation.
Yes.well said and it's good for new generations and know there rights.there is more to learn
They need christ in they’re life , only then the suffering will end
@@Spiritualwarfare587 Actually, that’s exactly what they DON’T need. So much suffering in the world could have been avoided if only you pretentious A-holes kept your oppressive religion (and greedy way of life) to your damn selves!
We die bcuz of one sting how comes they survive this
It's a differance between a ritual wtth a reason and meaning, with the help of ancestors, than someone getting stung.
Very nice
Great people
Awesome - !

Same sentiment developing between man to wasp.....as man to each other presently.....my female polish healers used to tell us," people manifest to each other,what the mother( nature) is feeling."
What a wonderful way of life. Freedom! No worries about money and its evil.
What doesn't kill u makes u stronger 💜
സൂപ്പർ 😍😍😍🙏🙏🙏
it brooks my heart seeing them fight for their right
One day, I believe, this unloving man in this world, will be put in a subborant position and no longer able to "spead himself like a green bay tree. Then he will understand what it is too live and let live.
I pray that day will come very soon.
Amazing interesting and beautiful people! They have all the right values that modern civilization does not have, due to greed.
thanks for show this to the world, as a Brazilian beautiful to watch such a amazing doc.
I'm sure you are a very good person, but your government is evil. You and everyone else need to tell them to stop the deforestation, mining, and building of power dams. There is very little left of the Amazon Forest, and the Brazilian government is participating in cutting it all down so fast.
The same thing is happening here in Canada, and we are fighting against it.
So was the dam built ?
Tribe elder sounds like the third hokage
Is I guess these children are getting a booster from the wasps sting.
... thank you .. evolution ! ...
I lost for words yes
Cheers
