Amazon tribe which has never had contact with the outside world seen for the first time in amazing drone footage
The footage appears to show one of the tribespeople carrying a bow and arrow as they walk across a clearing in the Brazilian rainforest, as well as a long house known as a 'maloca'.
Just seen the footage and it could be anyone,are there still tribes that have never had contact with the outside world? |

I know there's an island somewhere with a tribe that is EXTREMELY violent towards outsiders. It's off limits to everyone, they attack anything from the outside with spears and arrows and they might be cannabals. Think they killed a group of fishermen a while back |

I think was on a ray mears program he was saying there are lots of tribes who have rejected contact from the outside world. I'm sure he mentioned one he visited where they wouldn't allow cameras, but not 100%. |

Where is this?"
North Sentinel Island in the Indian Ocean. |

North Dentinel Island in the Bay of Bengal. Any sort of contact programme was discontinued in 1996 after it was considered that the islanders wish to have no contact with the outside world should be respected. Estimates put the islanders' numbers at somewhere between 50 and 400. |

"There's a great movie based on this.. its oldish now but still very relevant.... "The Emerald Forest"  "
Brilliant movie and certainly far more sensitive and indeed, less lurid than the brief ‘Cannibal’ movie craze as was so popular in the late 1970’s/early 1980’s. |

I assume that there may still be tribes of people, perhaps fortunate, who have not had contact with the modern world. There is a lot of ancient forest that's still not been cut down, in order to farm for the modern world Sadly not enough has been left. They obviously miss out on modern medicine etc but may also escape from some diseases that we may take to them. |

Yeah there are still tribes we know nothing about who dont venture out their own village and kill any outsiders on sight, some are also known cannibals so nobody ever goes near them.
Eli Roth made a movie called green inferno about a cannibalistic tribe, he used a real tribe and had to introduce them to cinema, he showed them one of those brutal 70's cannibal tribe movies to show them what they were making and they thought it was a comedy. On Netflix |

Yes. We've now realised that if we went and lived too close to them, then 60-70% will be dead within 2 years because they simply don't have immunity to the diseases that barely trouble us. So there are lots of tribes we leave alone thankfully. |
