The tribe of Toulambis comes for the first time in contact with whites

1976, the Team Explorer Jean-Pierre Dutilleaux came for the first time in contact with the primitive tribe of Toulambis (Papua, New Guinea), whose members hadn't ever come in contact with the outside world and neither had seen man with white skin. The camera captured the fearful and full of curiosity their reaction.

    The video is fake!! Mr.(I'm insulting the Srs of truth) Jordi is an ignorant mayusculo and as this follow asi, them will give independence to the unbearable Catalans in their attitude, and will be the beginning of national collapse. If both Franco bothered them as it is that they didn't say not Word then?- and that record that I I came to use fleeing of Franco.- ahora con eso de la democracia no hay mas que las ratas saliendo de los agujeros y provocando infecciones..que pena con lo bonito que era nuestro Pais sin la influencia catalana por todas partes…….

      No are you doing discussing, in a war of coconuts that this loss of before hand, certainly you have not watched the video well, that we are all one, Let yourselves already have who knows more, many coconut and little heart, you are more scare you that the indigenous people of the video, but the worst thing is that you do not you relajais, they cease to be wary when they believe that the other is not a threat, You seguiis seeing a threat in the difference of ideas, liberty friends freedom, and now surely remeteis with me, have you, Some believe he knows everything and has the well-filled head and is not the point.

    What a shame that those charming people have been found. Next thing, religion, alcohol, disease will wipe them out because white man thinks everyone should live like them.

    • Betina1 says:

      Charming? That sure is a biased comment. How would you know? Because they are NOT white? Stupid white people invented “multiculturalism” which is shorthand for “hey! let’s wipe out our race and culture and boot lick the non whites of the world”. Your remarks are a sign of a chauvinist, a bigot, and an ignoramus. Most white people just want to live their lives unmolested by left wing shit. It’s the “elites” of the world, of all colors, that are driving the misery.

      • Necoraptor says:

        Well leftist Stalin and Mao killed people.. Let me see; the crusades, War on Afghanistan, Iraq War, Napoleonic War, World war I and World war II. Yep, leftists did them all. Well pray your lord to kill much as you can you mindless idiots.Keep denying the science, yet don’t be ashamed to be hypocrites to use its marvels.White supremacists, making me laugh so hard… Capitalism made you supreme? Colonizing the world, living in harmony and joy. Enslaving masses…Yeah pray a lot.

        • Tyrone Washington says:

          Necoraptor, you feign intellectualism as is the habit of atheists everywhere. Since you THINK you are so very smart, why don’t you expound some of your genius here and now. America enslaves NOBODY. Your lies are as despicable as they are ignorant. Now please, some science from you, IF you know any at all. Here is a spoof on the misplaced condescension and ignorance of atheists: http://proofthereisnogod.blogspot.com

          For your info...The Euro race is responsible for 99% of the inventions, medicine and democracy that is used and copied around the world. We are going through a form of scientific evolution, which can not be stopped. It is unfortunate that the euro race are the ones that are in danger of extenction due to forced multiculturalism as stated above. Without the West’s generosity to the third world they would still be living in the dark ages like this tribe. Maybe life was less stressful back then under those conditions, however life expectency was a lot shorter too. When does the Caucasian race get recognition for all the good that we have contributed world wide, instead of always being made out to look like the evildoers.

          • Fabiola cross says:

            Nowadays, everybody can see the result of destruction, unhappiness and earth damage cause by your race. Look at your name: wildfire!!

          • Nick Folkes says:

            Without Europeans the world would be a ghetto. The third world would still be living in darkness without white man’s magic. The third world should bow down at our feet.

          • Kyrkos Ekaterinaris says:

            Yes, thank goodness these primitives found civilisation and started living our way! Living in harmony with earth? Bah! Who needs this hippie crap! Yes, we may have a wildfire or a tsunami every now and live under threat of nuclear arms, but we’re happy! Are they happy? How can you be happy when you don’t have an i-pad, i-phone, cable tv and high-speed broadband? Damned primitives!

      • JanSk says:

        ‘left wing’ is basically a white men’s invention…

        • Nick Folkes says:

        Backward moron!

    • Tyrone Washington says:

      Their lifestyle is so “charming” and lovely, you should join them, Kapticook. You certainly have that option. What’s holding you back? All throughout history, and all the world over, people have fled the hardships and rigors of primitive tribal life to come to the city and create (gasp!) civilization. I have no diseases, no alcohol problems. As to “religion,” how has your atheism worked out? Atheist Stalin killed tens of millions. Atheist Mao Tse Tung killed even more.Leftist atheists think they have all the answers, which have culminated in the likes of North Korea and Cuba.

      • Omoshun1 says:

        You have said only have of society’s problem. I am cuban/american and I know exactly how it is….kudos for your statement Mr Washington

      • Mapuchenano says:

        Your religion and your systematic brainwash through the years of your life make you blind.Go to Cuba and see the reality do not believe the dirty propaganda of the controlled media mainly in USA.Religion is only invented to control the mind of people. God is only the life,we are the gods who made life for better or for worse. Wake up

      • Faith says:

        Surely the Spanish Inquisition and burning of witches were invented by atheists.So were the crusades, 9/11 and human sacrifice.The list is endless.

        • Velomartinez says:

          Every year millions of people die before birth by voluntary abortion. Are they guilty religions? The abortion is the heritage of atheism, and there is more victims than the Crusades or the Inquisition. In addition, the Inquisition Spanish not is model of a Religion, and not killed indiscriminately, sino con procesos legales limitados.Hay que estudiar un tema antes de opinar; We must think before repeating phrases.

          • Phnx says:

            Here in the U.S., over 40 million have been killed by abortion in the past 50 years. That is the heritage of atheism.

    • the dimago says:

      I agree with you, next we will steal them their freedom, their purity, their innocence, everything we have lost with the “civilization”.

      • Fabiola cross says:

        I completely agree with you.

      • Rhino8561 says:

        the film is 36 years old. .in this tribe, the elders rarely live past the age of 50. All the adults you have seen here are most likely dead. Disease and malnutrition are the main causes

        • Glenda Fields says:

          Well your comment sure puts a different prospective on this. This is the first time ever I’ve heard of them. I guess they survived the exposure. At least, so far, for some 36-odd yrs!

    • Altruist says:

      You’re comment is sad and retrograde to say the least….Papua new guinea is a timed island, if it wasn’t for the “White Man” these ppl would still be living up to 50 (max), malnutrition, diseases, ignorance….you talk about innocence,freedom,purity?Why are you using a computer? go to Papua and live you’re life the way you want….It’s kinda redundant criticizing progress using the Internet to do so……Sometimes ignorance is bliss, but you aren’t blessed, just ignorant u and ppl like Fabiola (Brazillian? Indian ascendence?). Read more,learn more and pls make sense in you’re comments. But im not going to lie, i would prefer these ppl to be hunting animals with sticks and to be dead the day after with crazy infections. This kind of “help” to Papua,Africa,Brazil, just served to mine our Europe.Ingrateful ppl…

      • Rafael says:

        Its a shame to see comments like yours so full of hate. Human virtues will always seek for development and well being, but when our human vices start to take over our virtues, things such as intolerance and envy destroy our lives and the lives of people who are around us. That can happen anywhere in the world, even in your beloved Europe, but different from you, I don’t want Europeans dead just for stupid comments like yours. Get out more, travel and get to know people from other places… seems like you really need to make your vision broader.

    • Nick Folkes says:

      The white man doesn’t want third world parasites to “live like them”. The third world wants to live like the white man.

    • koliri says:

      i disagree. You dont know if they already have a religion or if they produce their own kind of alcoholic drink.It nice to be romantic but West was not invented. West was made by people who “started their journey” like those people in the video. Greeks, Romans, Goths lived in forests and one day they left them for something better. Its complicated how we ended up here -white people- but instead of simplistic aforisms is better to find a balance among better and worst.

    This film clip was so icredible. Thank you! How good these people seem to be. Despite their initial fear of the white man. Whatever happened to them?

  13. FrLW says:

    I hope this is somewhere on the internet without the terrible music from another continent (There is one on Youtube but it’s in 240p quality, 360p doesn’t work). For the rest this looks great. I’ve been on Papua (West) myself years ago, and then all the kids crowded around my jelling Putih, Putih and they where touching me also. They haven’t seen a white man before in there youngh life. The parent did ofcourse.The movie is not fake.

      Claro que la música es de norteamérica.En muchos momentos como este el hombre blanco ha encontrado a tribus indígenas como ésta.También pienso que la imagen es demasiado nítida para ser de 1976. Pero así sería.Estoy de acuerdo, that they let live in peace.

  26. Eric says:

    Superficially you can like it. Once you start to reflect on the whole videostory there are too many things that disturb your happiness. In the first place, the movements seem acted, the whole thing seems fake and this is confirmed by this link (already given twice by others):

    http://asopa.typepad.com/asopa_people/2011/07/toulambi-1976-contact-fact-or-fable.html

    Even if the film is authentic, it’s indeed a proof of arrogance by western human beings to show these primitives things they don’t know only to watch how amazed they are. As if they really need knives, white rice, camera’s etc. I hope they survived this meeting with civilization. That’s not evident at all!

  27. Cecy, Mexicali B. C. says:

    I totally agree Maria Ferruica, much we can learn from them.. hopefully just be a documentary and not take advantage to destroy their habitat as usual man.

    How dumb to show these native objects that can only disrupt their peaceful existences.

I visited the webpagehttp://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/00223340410001684868 the dis-believers credit in crying fake and found the text referenced another tribe/area of n Elitest bigots prefer to think white men are the only ones capable of ew Guinea. I especially liked their sign for new ideas 9tapping the back of their head). There interst in seeing if the ‘colour’ would come off, and their ease of using matches, only 2 false starts to grasp it then discard the useage – after all matches arn;t readily available to them. The rice eqating and preference for fingering their food was refreshing. in all great video of cultural exchange.
