- I believe a precedent has been set...next time those Jehovahs Witnesses come round things are gonna be different.Morning_star
- such a fascinating island. suggested that they've been isolated for up to 50K years. they've yet to discover fire making.Gnash
- Agree, it’s amazing, no farming either. Amazing where the sharing of our collective knowledge has brought the rest of us._niko
- Also they were obviously seafarers at one point in their history but they've lost that knowledge?_niko
- their canoes can only do shallow water. perhaps 50K years ago the islands were much closer together (vis sea level variance)Gnash
- the in-breeding, though...Gnash
- Fascinating. I'm going to the andaman islands in a few weeks actually. Not there. I'll just profess my love for jesus on the safe islandsset
- safe trip. bring a shieldGnash
- What a selfish cocksucker. Good outcome.PhanLo
- A "volley of arrows", seems appropriate.futurefood
- I wonder what they believe in? what their gods are if any. They might have knowledge of neighbouring islands but little else. No idea how big their world is_niko
- to them, since all invaders have been repelled, they are masters of the universe, they have no idea they can be wiped out in the blink of an eye with no effort_niko
- I often think that our planet is like their island and we humans collectively are the Sentinelese ignorantly hurtling through space._niko
- I wonder what they make of helicopters or power boats? Probably what we make of Oumuamua lol._niko
- well, they make arrrow heads from the metal they scavenge from abandoned boatsGnash
- I think hollywood needs to make a feel good movie about a john candy character who takes the Sentinelese archery team to the olympics. Hilarity ensues when_niko
- ..they murder everyone lol._niko
- "Sentinelese songs contain just two notes and they can only count up to two above which they call everything else many. Their only form of art is body painting"Gnash
- "More than 100 of the Sentinelese live in palm-built lean-tos around the island, yet they have no community structure, no chiefs and no witchdoctors."Gnash
- "Their way of life is comparable to that of humans 15,000 years ago; it is possible that they have not evolved any further because they simply did not have to."Gnash
- interesting, they could have been way more advanced technologically in the past but distilled their way of life down to the bare necessities._niko
- ^^ Trilokinath Pandit, a director of the Anthropological Survey of IndiaGnash
- with no record keeping of any kind I guess it's impossible to build on progress. If we could drop some cameras on the island I'd watch the shit out of that show_niko
- thanks Gnash just watched this vid, fascinating. their mannerisms, expressions etc are no different than ours really
