Film Footage Of One Of The Last Uncontacted Tribes

submitted by sepatown

1 decade 3 years 9 months 3 weeks ago

New footage of one of the world's last uncontacted tribes living in the Brazilian rainforest.

Jose Carlos Meirelles works for FUNAI, a government agency that protects Brazil's indigenous people. Because of the threat posed by illegal logging and mining, he believes that the fight to protect these people depends on proving and publicising their existence. This aerial footage was shot from 1km away using a stabilised zoom lens.

Brazil is thought to be home to around 70 isolated tribes

...and so the big white bird god was born

All things considered, I think I'd rather be shot by a miner than be indoctrinated into our current modern world.

Promoting this video and sending it back into the queue for one more try; last queued Friday, February 4th, 2011 3:00am PST - promote requested by JiggaJonson.

Someone somewhere will watch this and think, "Oh, no! These poor people haven't heard the word of Jesus!" and that'll be the end.

' Alright you Primitive Screwheads, listen up! You see this? This... is my boomstick! '

Don't even think about getting any ideas, evangelicals!

Hmmm... I'll show them my phone and they will worship me until I die.
