I would go to Ramree Island because I heard they have MrBallen Merch there!!!

[gundamgunpla]

So from my research of the Sentinelese people I have learned that a while back they DID allow a group of researchers near. That groups would come by and float coconuts over from their boat, and the Sentinelese people would gather them as they floated to shore. Each time the team would get closer and closer, continuing to float Coconuts to them until one day a group of the Sentinelese people waded RIGHT out to the researchers boat where they grabbed the ENTIRE bag of coconuts and hauled it to shore. This was after several weeks I believe of contact. They then were allowed to shore on the island where the people showed them their lifestyle and got a basic understanding of how the island worked. The Sentinelese were cautious but non aggressive, yet always were armed during the visit.
What happened was that AFTER the researchers left the Sentinelese got VERY VERY sick. It is unknown what they caught but it is believed that due to their limited contact to the outside world and our adaptation to the daily viruses and pathogens humans contain, something that the researchers had like a minor flu hit the Sentinelese. I don't remember the number but it was around 70% or more of the entire tribe was wiped out by this sickness, it literally killed whole generations of families on that island which is a big reason for the low numbers. They act aggressively towards ANY outsiders due to this traumatic event in their history, and the Indian government has banned travel there for both protection of us AND protection of the remaining Sentinelese. I believe it is mainly to protect them from us though if you read the law.

But they are naturally hunters, not killers. They just want to avoid what happened, and MAY thing it was either on purpose and we will do it again, or some other reason linked to us.

Using that bible as a shield was Gods way of saying “alright, but this is the last time.”

[GlassesnMouthplates]

I'm actually more amazed that some people managed to build a lighthouse there on the Snake Island in the first place.

[loriepaix]

The natives on Sentinel Island have had contact with the outside world in the past. What they discovered was that when other people came, some of their own people got sick and died. Their hostility has more to do with self-preservation.

John: "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."
Morgan Freeman: "John did not know what he was doing."

[justindunlap]

Those sentinel Islanders are probably still loving that kayak he was so generous to donate.

[isuckatguitar]

Yup, passed by North Sentinel Island when I was hopping around the Andaman's back in 2001, and it's well known as a no go in that region for being protected, indigenous people. Absolutely right, they should be respected and left alone. Plenty of other gorgeous islands in the area to enjoy!

[FauxStalgia]

The like button called me bawling. I let him vent for 2 hours about the years of abuse from you John. I’ve never heard someone in so much pain in my life. All he wants to do is live. Just be tapped on. But the things he has gone through at your hands have pushed him to an edge. He says he will be filing a restraining order Monday.

John: “would you like to learn about our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ?”
Child: “would you like to meet him?”

[Staggs]

Damn that crocodile massacre sounds like a nightmare. All the hissing, splashing, and cries of terror would be horrifying, especially in the dark

[Vvt.]

The Sentinelese were actually very open and welcoming to visitors until someone showed up and kept asking them how to get to Bell's canyon.

[Lathlaer]

I love how the premise of the series is "no matter how much money you have, you simply can't go there" which is then quickly followed up with a story about random Joes who managed to go there xD

[dabasodika]

Love the way he laughs saying the poachers get bit by the vipers 😂😂

[ThatySoaresX]

Me, a brazillian:
- Is he talking about that island that is full of snakes? Oh yeah, he is
Actually this island is pretty close from other famous beaches and you can see the island standing in the beach. Luckly the snakes don't know how to swim... yet

[lararobinson]

Your laugh when you said they just get bit and die... Too awesome

[pauleyoverfortychristiepau]

So I scrolled back through my watch history because I had to see where this started. It was right here! This is where my friendship with Mr.Ballen began and I’m so glad I found his channel! It has been so good to find a community of other people who love the strange, dark, and mysterious! I’m proud of you Mr. Ballen! You’ve come so far but you’ve never changed, and you new content is true to your beginnings. Thank you sir!

I am curious as to how a lighthouse was built there and they didn't discover the thousands of killer snakes. How they were even able to build it in those conditions is crazy

[lino]

The crocodiles of Ramree Island still talk about the largest feast in their history till this day!!!

[justokayemilay]

Snake island. How did the lighthouse get built without everyone dying? That's insane. Literally blowing my mind.
