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.

    I love these people, these reports, These documentaries and I have the utmost respect for these and other people who live away from rot and a world on the wane, because men- civilized?!!- lost all dignity, toda a decência…tanta coisa linda, worth a view, disclosed and felt and, every day we are , bombed, required to hear, to digest the levity, the opportunism, the incompetence, the corruption of those who portray themselves as if they were the owners of reason and truth. Que desgosto que eu tenho de pertencer a esse grupo de… nem sei bem o que lhes chamar! Let's report the only way we can curb. These programs Yes, many, muitos …talvez alguém aprenda algo com estas civilizações.

    As a secular humanist I can only agree that more people have been murdered in the name of one religion or another than for any other reason. They all have you by the throat (what and when you can eat) or by the genitals (how or when you have sex).

      You couldn’t be further from the truth. Yes, over the centuries millions have died due to misguided religious fanatics. However, you fail to consider the tens of millions who died under Hitler’s National Socialism or tens of millions who have died under communism in the USSR or the tens of millions who have died under communism in Red China, or North Korea, all within the last century. In addition, here in the US over 40 million babies have been aborted due to secular humanists such as yourself. So we can conclude, that more have died under the misguided rule of self righteous secular humanists, such as yourself, than for any other reason.

    I thought it was great with the one exception of the music. As nice as the music is it was an unfortunate distraction. I would have been more intrigued by whatever conversation there was no matter how minimal since this was first contact for this tribe. Hmmm perhaps the decision to insert music was for the benefit of the viewers. What, to hold their attention?

    Incredible footage.. I wish I could have been able to read the lines beneath the photo.. Pepper. smileydog888@hotmail.com

    It hurts to know that hand as so-called civilization, It has come to this place to carry tools of destruction, fire and weapons.

  14. Phoenix says:

    We have no right to do this. It is shameful and irresponsible.

    This is totally amazing and heartwarming, I really don’t have words for how this touched my heart to see this. I know this there are many tribes that need to know Jesus Christ as their Lord and Saviour. This gave me a picture of what it will be like in heaven with every tribe and tongue worshipping Jesus Christ! I can’t wait to meet my brothers and sisters from around the globe. I commend those that are willing to go to the world to minister the gospel to the lost. Many blessings on those! Kathy Pearson

      Why must Christians insist that non-Christians are the lost? “Hey, let’s convert the brown people” is a horrible way to look at a video like this. I’m disgusted…

    It was as though their response to the white man with his extraordinary electronic tools would mirror our own introduction to aliens from outer space!

    the covers that these Indians use exist in various places in New Guinea and it seems to be made of fabrics at that time I lived 50 kilometers from Goiania I lived on a ranch I was naked and I didn’t know television and corros had little difference from these Indians if I could be discovered today I could until he was touched more in 1976 brazil was much worse than the confines of the amazon rainforest today with a plane passing by garinpeiros and lumberers there is no place that the white man has not yet arrived or took pictures of satellites that can read the license plate of a car space

    We just watched the loss of the last innocents..!

    I think rather than amaze them with white rice, mirrors and matches, it would have been a much greater learning experience to follow them for a week and view their lifestyle and co-existance with their enviromnment. I rather like the look of them, certainly not brutish or stupid, but keen and jolly.
