Dude, they have motorcycles? Oh wait. Commercial.
Seriously, why can't we leave those people alone? I'm sure I bitched about it in here somewhere. |

They had to get footage in order to persuade the logging companies that they existed and needed to be left alone. That's what I understood from the story anyway.

Sorry, I didn't read it. I was just being a smartass.
They are really interesting. I was thinking as I luxuriated (is that a word?) in my bath, that maybe I should go live with them. Wouldn't I be an oddity. Then I thought about what they must eat and stuff, and all the spiders. |

A map of where they are, from Slight's link.
http://www.uncontactedtribes.org/where They obviously saw the plane. Is that considered contact? Do they now worship the giant noisy bird god who doesn't need to flap his wings?

I think we make a lot of assumptions about uncontacted indigenous people. It's not the episode of Gilligan's Island where the native guy runs amok and Wrong Way Feldman crashes into them.
They probably don't just worship EVERYTHING. |
