This is probably the most fascinating video I have ever seen:

So many things go through my mind when I watch it...

I could watch hours of that. Amazing video!

Makes me wonder what effect the meeting has had on the people in the tribe.

+1

It was fascinating to watch, but you just know that there is already a team gearing up to go and study them.

I imagine it was pretty profound - they were blown away by a mirror and a pot of rice.

It'll be a crying shame if we see them again in a year and the kids are running round wearing Rooney shirts and sunglasses.

I believe this footage is from 1993.
Those facial expressions are unbelievable, mixture of fear, curiosity and astonishment.

And those kids didn't look exactly healthy, life expectancy can't be much higher than 40s for people like that I would think. I wouldn't want to trade places with them but they probably wouldn't want to trade with us either...

Yes, I've seen similar looks when I've driven through Norfolk.
