The tribe that evolved to stay underwater longer - BBC REEL

- Опубліковано 5 лют 2025
- Scattered through Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philippines, the Bajau are a semi-nomadic tribe of fishers with extraordinary freediving skills.
Research has shown that their anatomy has evolved to help them remain underwater for a longer time.
The Bajau’s traditional respect for their environment sets them as an example for ocean conservation.

happened in my town, a tourist drop his go pro at the port.. bunch of badjao kids heard this and asked where in the water it dropped..
minutes later with the go pro in hand, they gleefully returned it to the owner.. owner rewarded them..
absolutely incredible lads
*BAJAU
Stop the dumb spelling from the west ppl😅
Is there video of the recovery?
This must be common
What a great story that ever happened.
@@DBT1007 im a local and thats how its spelled lol 😅
The mother and child moment while the boy is just playing in the water and mom is looking for food is such a beautiful scene 😢
His mom so relax diving with that home dress making that scene look so epic like their house is inside the water
That mom is legit a badass.
She make it looks so easy as well. I can't even dive properly in a pool.
and she swam with full dresses not with bikini
To them its not different than when our mom picks herbs and fruits from the backyard😂 well sea is their backyard anyway.
My family are of the same tribe, and I grew up watching my uncles dive for food. They would be diving for hours with only a homemade harpoon as a tool. My cousins and I would dive for sea urchins and hunt eels as a pastime but also to bring food to the table. When there wasn't enough money to buy food, the sea always provided it.
How long can u hold ur breath?
Bajao ka?
U lyin
Incredible! I would love to visit and know these lovely people!
Cap, your lying, stop this nonsense, give us some prof before you claim
That video of the mother diving to collect food and the son just playing is so beautiful. Almost seems out of this world. Like they are merpeople.
It's because it's all staged bro, it isn't real. AquaticApes already proved NatGeo to be complete fakes as the Indonesian ocean is full of garbage and they breath on air compressors, not golding their breath
It's grandma and grandson
in December 2022 we watch Avatar based on this tribe. so proud of you guys. from Indonesia inspiring the world.
This tribe and many other tribes too
In the Philippines, the Badjaos are known not only for their diving skills but also for being really good people/tribe. They usually just mind their own business and never cause trouble.
Lol.. u never really knew them do u? U'r just one of those people who try say something good for sympathy... I encountered one of them whenever i ride a public transpo.. they beg for money.. i tried giving them food but they just threw it on the window w/ attitude, and they insist for money.. I didn't say all of them but "some of them.. lmao on u jc
@@memesapprovedbydoggoshiba5325 Sorry for your bad experience but you can't generalize them all as bad. Yes these people beg at the streets but you will never see these people terrorize the city with bombs and all kinds of trouble.
@@jasmineamorgan lmao read the last statement in my comment.. wdy even mean by bombing.. so that's when u can tell an ethnicity is bad when they're bombing and things
You just confused! Thats goodjao!
In Bohol and Cebu, badjao kids spit on their hands and threaten to wipe it to you if you don't give them money
"The way of water has no beginning and no end. The sea is around you and in you. The sea is your home, before your birth and after your death. Our hearts beat in the womb of the world. Our breath burns in the shadows of the deep. The sea gives and the sea takes. Water connects all things, life to death, darkness to light." - Metkayina proverb
I really liked that movie
I watching this thanks to that movie
just watched the movie yesterday
Oh false proverbs

The way she casual sit at bottom of the sea is freaking hilarious 3:25
And then she returned back effortlessly like a fish
Grandma aint bout that talk talk lol
No one can beat momma 😂😂
I think she's just an ordinary Konoha's mom. The difference is "The play ground" LOL
There was a Bajau Olympic swimmer named Bana Sailani, we competed two times in the 50s. He did not win any all because the country did not care about sports sector AND indigenous people even today. But still he competed even without the amount of guidance other competitors of other nations had.
Our country could be having multiple Olympic swimmers from this tribe if they have them education, housing, and etc.
I don't think these people care about competing at the olympics. it seems that they prioritize the preserving of the mature, their community and economy more, which serve essentially to their literal and cultural survival.
Tradisi dan budaya adalah lebih penting bagi mereka demi mempertahankan keberadaan mereka di masa depan
Yes Philippines, Indonesia, and Malaysia would be demolishing the swimming olympics if our countries give citizenship and opportunities for the Bajau’s and other sea fearing tribes in our countries and also for other discriminated tribes and ethnic groups in our country
Being able to breath less isn’t as advantageous as u may think. Free diving and swimming on top of the water are entirely different. It’s like saying someone who is good at high jump is instantly good at sprinting
yeah, i still do not understand why there is no bajo people that become a good competitive swimmer. but then i realize that most swimmer came from middle class.... only them who can afford access swimming pool routinely.
Yeah bajau tribe has evolved their spleen up to 50% in size, which is crazy how human can evolved.
Every living thing evolves.
Some people are born with two spleens would they have similar advantages
The brain is a powerful member
Evolved is the wrong word. Adaptation.
@@MrBluemanworld
This is evolution, since it's a genetic difference. Evolution is a biological adaptation.

Excellent video. It's encouraging to see young people who recognize the Bajau's necessary role in protecting the seas of their countries.
They do t protect anything. Have you seen the real videos there and not the staged NatGeo ones? It's full of garbage and they use air compressors to breath. All fake.
James Cameron based the Metkayina in Avatar 2 after these people. It’s quite incredible. I wonder what kind of traits they’d have if they did this for 10,000 years like the Metkayina
their lungs evolve, it's bigger than other human. That's how they can hold their breath for long time
the polynesian branch
They are on the path of speciation. Our descendants might share this world with merfolk in the far future.
it's hard because of the decrease in fish some of them choose to beg for spare changes in cities
the stories published by BBC on the Indonesian free divers was proven to be a lie. In reality they almost never free dive and instead use automotive style air compressors (which is extremely dangerous)
Seeing that man free dive without any gear is mind blowing to watch especially when he can stay underwater for so long. This video is amazing to watch! And I'm proud of my country the Philippines and to my Bajao/u brothers, mabuhay!

@@southpaw8040 show us your sources, I've seen your exact message 5 times. Are you obsessed with the bajau?
@@joebticao6299 go check out Aquatic Apes. He did an entire series that showed these divers never going deeper than 10-15 feet. The only ones that go deeper use an air compressor. He even discusses how National Geographic faked/staged these divers. Also, the amount of garbage on the beaches is astounding. It's disgusting, just like the oceans in China and India. Go watch it, I DARE YOU
@@joebticao6299 search up "The Most Dangerous Fishing Method on Earth" and skip to 10:41 :)
Why are you proud of your country, the Philippines, with this video? This video was made in Indonesia, it can be seen from the language of their native Bajau tribe from the Bugis tribe on the island of Sulawesi,
See this is why I love James Cameron and the work he is doing with the Avatar films. He is raising awareness to a much wider range of people about the beauty of nature and the problems it faces. It also makes us aware of extraordinary groups of people like this.
He didn't mention these people one time and he stole their story. It's white thievery to me.
Except Avatar was based on Scottish Picts and not these people. Not to me tipn they use air compressors and can't hold their breath
@@southpaw8040Jonoboio wasn't talking about the Scottish Picts. he was speaking about exposure of diver people as a whole.
There's 3 divisions of "Sea People" or "Sea Nomads" in Maritime Southeast Asia. One is Bajau people explained in this video, living in the seas along the coast of East Borneo, West Sulawesi (Makassar Strait - Celebes Sea), the islands of Nusa Tenggara and some parts of Molucca. Second is the Orang Laut in Karimata Strait and Natuna Islands between the islands of Sumatra and Borneo. And third is Moken people from the Mergui Archipelago off the coast of Myanmar. Interestingly, all of these ethnicities that I mentioned are the member of the Austronesian people known for its seafaring abilities.

Almost all south east asian are Austronesian
@@southpaw8040proof it if it's really a fact
@@southpaw8040, and in days gone by, before these gadgets were invented, did they free dive or not? Naysayers LOVE naysaying just for the heck of naysaying. There’s a video here showing me individuals free diving and you’re more interested in the negative.
@@YoureverBeloved there is no evidence that they did legitimately free dive. In the dozens of documentaries made about these people where the truth was hidden, they never truly free dived more than 8-10 feet. Not once have these people been recorded actually free diving down to the average 20 meters as others do. The stories about these people were a complete lie, right down to the swimming (not diving) goggles that they used. You were fooled.
It looks like that lady is preparing her dinner ingredients like she'd do in her kitchen, but underwater holding her breath. You should have showed the meals they make, I have seen food vloggers visit these people and the meals they make from what they catch are quite impressive.
It is proven that the Southeast Asia nation was a real seafaring nations long before the compass was invented, even international maritime regulations were adapted from the Ammana Gappa, namely shipping regulations made by the Bugis and the others (Wajo, Bone, Makassar) in 1676 (The name refers to a Bugis from Wajo who wrote and collected all regional regulations regarding shipping).
Badjao originally came from Philippines since 500 AD, but migrating coast to coast that's why they reach Indonesia to malaysia,

And these adaptable peoples are the first to suffer from environmental changes affecting their way of life.
Climate change hoax#
Tell them to stop polluting their own countries by dumping garbage into the ocean
"...these adaptable people are the first to suffer from environmental changes affecting their way of life."
No.
Humans (and every living species ever to exist) are always having to adapt to "environmental changes affecting their way of life". From the very beginning of humanity (and life), humans have been adapting to the changing climate. Indeed, human civilization itself was born BECAUSE of an earlier global warming (with attendant droughts).
It's fascinating that the neo-Marxist environmentalist cult is now veritably rejecting Darwinian science of natural selection. ....What the heck do you think "natural selection" means? Living creatures ALWAYS face adapting to environmental change or going extinct. If you deny the very existence of NATURAL climate change, then you are denying evolutionary science. You're just as bonkers as the Creationists. There is no cosmic (or divine) thermostat "out there" keeping the climate "just right".
Climate change IS nature. There's no such thing bas an environment which doesn't change. "Fighting climate change" literally means (if we take those words literally) fighting nature.
@@MrJm323 Oh well, you don't agree. A tad long winded and fragmented though.
@@pawshands9706 What I agree with is Darwin's natural selection theory (which you implicitly reject) and actual natural history (which you deny, apparently).
If you guys want to see a more in depth of the life of Bajau people, you should watch a video made by Kristian Hansen. He visited one of the Bajau villages that's located in Wakatobi, Indonesia. He shows how they live but he's also helping them by giving them money (also with the help of his subscribers) to fix the bridges there. It's a really beautiful video.
There's also a movie about the Bajau called The Mirror Never Lies/Laut Bercermin. Again, it's set in Wakatobi, Indonesia.
They should be protected tribe along with their environment. This is amazing, I always felt modern humans where not the first to dive Into the ocean, imagine ancient humans who could dive for much longer time, may be even 20 hours
Actually they're, the Philippines coast guards always surrounds the Philippine sea
the modern people had more time to evolve so i bet the ones that live now are the best ever
@@tyrrant1374 Oh my sweet summer child.
@@orwellianyoutube8978 am an autumn child you missed
If we're all genetically equal then why is this tribe different?
Bajau tribe is very extra ordinary..from him i learn about sustaining life..thank for amazing video!
Mom was just at the bottom sitting and catching stuff looking like she's just chillin' on the couch, lols... I would die!
This video taught me a big lesson... whatever habit,skill you practice for long becames part of you, so i have to be careful what habits i practice abd also continue pursing my skills coz one day it will pay off
Dont worry guys, in 100 years everything will be underwater and these guys will have evolved to be fully aquatic by then, they will be our saviors
there is a movie with that kind of premise
Ya keep telling yourself those bullshit fairytales based off nothing you ass. Good day
Ahhhh I'm going to the moon then!!
At the rate the planet is deteriorating we'll all be screwd in 100 years. That's on all of us one way or another.

Would love to meet and more so dive with these people. What a dream
I would wait for that vlog Wil!
Eyy Wil!
you can come to malaysia
Try bongao tawi tawi.

i wish i was living with them ❤ i love the sea so much and i try to swin eveytime i can, spending 60% percent of my time in water would be heaven for me
Change nationality bro
just talking is very easy
You wouldn’t when your people aren’t recognized as a citizen in all 3 countries and treated as a lower class and live in poverty with little opportunity other than beg and fish this is the biggest problem these people have but Philippines, Malaysia, and Indonesia do not care for them which is sad
@@hallooos7585 Because a lot of bajaus themselves refused to be part of the nation but those who stay and get their legalities done get to have the same benefits of any citizens of the country however, there is something about their culture that prevents them into adapting fully to co-exist with the land people. although more and more younger generations of bajaus craved proper education and better opportunity to live in a city.. while people who grow up in the cities also craved the opposite 😅
@@hallooos7585 They don't want to be, Because they wil lose their culture. Look what the Europeans thinks of their gypsies
Amazing, when i was young i would hang out at an Olympic pool, given lessons in swimming and diving, i know how hard it is just to go down 18 feet... 20 meters is insane
Not only from the polynesian people, but James Cameron also inspired by the Bajo people for the metkayina tribe.
There have been so many instances of governments enacting policies in the name of zero carbon, go green, etc to protect the environment but they don't often seek out the knowledge or the local inhabitants who have been already protecting their lands/seas for generations. Sometimes it just ruins the whole purpose of what conservation is and makes it a "locals vs government" issue instead.
Sadly this is true.
🧐 As a swimmer myself, I am speechless. ✨
You're a swimmer not a diver
They are the real merman and mermaid. You just a human who can swim...
Here in America we genetically modified too. Most consume 1 kilogram of sugar daily
😂
lame. I consume 5
Americans have this adaptation to be insulin resistant..😂😂😂
bro tf😂
In our province we called them "Children of the Sea" or "The guardian of pearls"
In the Makassar language, they're called "People from water" (tu ri je'ne').
Fascinating people. I hope they are able to preserve their traditions and protect the environment.
The environment is already destroyed. The BBC documentary is a complete lie and consists of mostly B-roll of images around the major resorts. 99% of the beaches are covered in garbage and the homes are built on dead chunks of coral. Literally. I have been there. the stories published by BBC on the Indonesian free divers was proven to be a lie. In reality they almost never free dive and instead use automotive style air compressors (which is extremely dangerous)
Im not the brughtest but always learned in the bahamas that stabding on coral reefs destroy them.....i mean maybe they are part of their own prob
Indonesia today has the most number of Austronesians in SEA, followed by the Phil’s. Badjaos are Austronesians, which means their ancestors came from the north (Out-of-Taiwan Theory). Originally settling along the coasts of the Sulu Archipelago (Mindanao) and eventually spreading down south to Sabah (northeast Borneo), Sulawesi, Indonesia, Malaysia, etc.
This was my tribe and I’m proud of this man 👨
in an interview, some bajau kids started throwing up when they got off the boat from water to land.... apparently when they get into land they feel 'sick' the same way we who live on land get seasick when we are at sea
Oh wow
Where is this interview?? In my city, most of these people are all over the streets busking or even straight up begging with their children and infants towed...
I dont know where is the video she is talking about but as far i know the bajau people in Indonesia they live peacefully and the goverment build house for them
It's strange to see so many people in denial that human industrial activity and greed has lead to mass pollution, dying reefs and overfishing. And they're literally blaming small-time coastal spearfishers for doing the overfishing and their declining way of life instead... with little clue about what trawling is, or its devastating effects at scale.
I am one of the descendants of the Bajo tribe, and I think that is a blessing, from childhood we were taught how to preserve the sea, protect coral reefs and other marine biota that must be protected, since childhood we only played on the beach and in the sea and that was very importantit's fun and we can even swim and dive without having to learn first, it's like a talent passed down from our ancestors.
This guy is like walking through a bunch of scuba divers while wearing his sunglasses and smoking his cigar underwater.
We consider ourselves as very civilised , yet we destroy everything around us , including these beautiful and wonderful people .
I really appreciate this old way of catching fishes... Than those huge ships who catch large amount of fishes... Although it is understandable that it is necessary as there are a lot to feed in the world... But still, it feels so nostalgic even though I never fished before
It's not necessary people are just lazy
If these people joined free diving games they would win gold.
Sherpa; We evolved to live in high altitude. We could stay in high elevation with no problem
Bajo; We evolved to hunt fish....like dolphin.... We could stay underwater for extended period of time with no problem. 60 meters depth? Thats just tuesday.
Me; diving 10 meters with only a snorkel.....ARRRGGGHHH THE PRESSURE....
If you're a white guy then you're adapted to snowy landscapes... That's where your hairy body, gigantism, big nose and white skin would shine
These are the people who will evolve into mermaids
Or they could evolve into seals😆
Problem is you will need to wait 2000 to 5000 years or more to see the changes happen over the generations.
They would evolve into a fish-like creatures in like 20 million years, evolution would get rid of everything human as its harmful aquatic environments.
They will evolve into sirens instead
As long they wont evolve into spongebob and patrick
Sadly, here in Manila when you say Badjao, people would often think of street beggars soliciting money in public transportation.
The Philippine government isn't good at protecting most of its indigenous people. It likes the idea of culture and the aesthetic it provides to international eyes, but it often neglects (and even redtags) the people where these rich cultures come from.
Sadly this is true...imagine how big the tribes were before capitalism etc...most have been genocided and displaced. This has happened all over the world so they show these times in our history neglecting to speak on the system that governs them and takes away their freedoms to expand and evolve as we naturally do.
modern economies and states just cannot help but eventually exploit indigenous people. Indigenous people are forced to either adapt or perish
Aren't all Manila Indigenous people?
I mean to be fair, in the cities you would really see a lot of indigenous people begging for money from jeepney to jeepney. So it is not really unreasonable or surprising why people especially in urban places would think of that
@@User545-v4r not all people from manila are indigenous people (if anything, it is rare to find one in the city :(
Im malaysian and I could somewhat understand some of the things they say. Sounds like a mixture of indo, malay & sumn else idk. Pretty cool!
this was amazing. biology is amazing. it's a shame that ultimately everything has to go the way of extinction. but that's just the way of things. nothing last forever.

Sadly In the Philippines, because of the overfishing of commercial fishing trawlers a lot of the traditional fishing grounds of the Bajau Ancestral lands are now devoid of any fish. As a result, Bajau people rarely have food in their own lands thus resort to begging in the streets of the more urban areas of the Philippines. A lot of Filipinos discriminate against them, and the term "Bajau" is used as an insult. Filipinos do not respect aspects of their indigenous culture like they should in my opinion its sad. The whole word recognizes the uniqueness of the Bajau, but actual Filipinos treat them like dirt. Very cruel.
Filipinos have the most awful attitude in Soitheast asia
Why are you discussing the Philippines? 🤔 This video was taken from Indonesia, the Bajau group of the Bugis tribe from the island of Sulawesi in Indonesian territory because that is where the original Bajau people come from, the Bajau group is not a native group from the Philippines lol 🗿
@@vikokiczuefavic1902 the Bajau exist in Indonesia, Malaysia, and the Philippines. Theyre not exclusive to one country.
@@ozzo870 I ask you do Filipinos understand the language of the Bajau people in this video? not right? in this video they use the tribal language of an Indonesian region on the island of Sulawesi. That means this video was taken from Indonesia, not the Philippines. and one more thing you should know. The Bajau tribe in the Philippines are just immigrants from the Bajau tribe in Indonesia. That's why the Bajau tribe in the Philippines is a minority that is not respected in the Philippines. but after you know the superior skills of the Bajau people then it seems like you are proud? Filipino people are very strange and funny. 🗿

damn, I went through so many different emotions while watching this: I went from curiosity to awe, and to admiration and sadness and then to respect and amazement and even more awe and joy and then sadness again and finally to hope and motivation.... it was an incredible rollercoaster for me. As for this story, I have no words left, I've used them all to express what I felt
Beautiful comment 👌
No lead weights, no fins, no wetsuits! Wow these people are amazing.
Necessity is the mother of all invention. When it became necessary for this tribe to dive they adapted and invented ways of doing it to the best of there abilities
I am from Indonesia, but coming from different area from these people. There is local people there from Pura island who also possess this unique ability.
I am a Filipino and I have friend who is in the same tribe when we were in highschool we use his boat in the middle of the sea to hangout catch fish and drink booze it was fun we swim ,dive in the sea and get drunk but we still manage to get in the shore crazy times now his in college about to become a lawyer.we still hangout but not like how we use to its amazing how he dive in the sea like a real life Aquaman.

This is where.. the Idea for the Movie AVATAR 2 begin.. 😌😌😌✅✅✅
James Cameron - "WRITE THAT DOWN! WRITE THAN DOWN!"
GREED has destroyed the planet for indigenous peoples, yet GREED pervades here in comments.😢
I have meet a bajo/sama tribe that can freedive for over 30 minutes in single breath
Not sure about specific minutes but if actors and actresses from AVATAR could be taught, in one year of intensive training, to hold their breaths between 5 to 7 minutes ---- because the movie is mostly about the water and underwater activities, requiring actors and actresses to hold their breaths for many minutes at a time for scenes --- it is VERY LIKELY that for a tribe who's born to make a living from diving, over many, many generations... many members LIKELY have the MUTATIONS (for spleen and other organs) to allow them to be able to use store/use oxygen way more optimally than even the best breath-holders in a Hollywood movie.
BTW, it also is true for HIGH ALTITUDE tribes: from the Himalaya to the Andes in South America, there are TRIBES that have evolved, through many many generations, to have better oxygen use/storage capacity in their system, so even with very thin oxygen level that would make almost all of us feeling very weak or sick... those tribal people with the appropriate mutations... they're just fine, up there in the extremely high altitude living....
Ditto for the Kung people living in the Kalahari Desert in Africa: they're, after TENS of thousands of years of living in such a hot environment, they have evolved ways, at the genetic levels, to cope better than the average human being... And Ditto for Eskimos living in the Far North, where at least 10 out of 12 months of the year, it's extremely cold....
@@kiabtoomlauj6249 "5 to 7 minutes"😆😆..please. Hollywood is notorious for making up lies to sell their films. The most elite athletes on the planet can manage is about 5mins+..only genetically special/rare people can do more than that. Imagine believing a Septuagenarian(70yr old)Sigourney Weaver can hold her breath for 5mins😁
Adaptasi bagian dari evolusi. Adaptasi terjadi pada keturunan suatu populasi. Bukan dari umur 1 bulan dibiasakan menyelam. Tapi anatomi individu yg memungkinkan penyelaman lama, akan lebih dipilih untuk meneruskan keturunan. Sehingga traits ini akan menjadi lebih umum dan banyak ditemukan di keturunan generasi berikutnya. Sama seperti orang yang hidup di dataran tinggi Tibet.
Now we know where James Cameron got his inspiration from for Avatar 2
I totally agree with what Muh Yakub said. 4:36
I'm not going to be surprised if they Evolve to actual land dwelling humans with feet/hand webbings and gills
thatd be so cool then theyre evolution wud be in textbooks
As someone who is terrified of water, watching this whole thing makes me a bit uneasy. I remember being in school and being told all life originally comes from the ocean, so it's not that unnatural for humans to be in the water, but that freaked me out even more lol
Everybody swims, at least 8-9 months in their mother's womb....
@@pihermoso11 lol I think someone told me that once, that anyway you look at it we all swam before we walked... Ppl always trying to convince me it's totally natural for humans to be in the water and I'm always like "water is for fish and land is for humans" lol

Anyone else here after seeing the free diving in Avatar: Way of Water?

Many tourists have drown while perusing Bajau craftsmen’s souvenir shops, which are entirely submerged in water.
I wish us humans had the ability to breathe underwater and land at the same time , because best believe I would live under water and be away from people 😩If only there was a way
I bet if we had these features they would’ve built underwater cities, homes just imagine if one day all humans evolved and woke up able to magically breathe in water that would be amazing
then most of the fish will be extinct . 🤣 .
As scared of water as I am, I'd probably still be terrified lol
Did you see what we done to land? Let just went into space and let the sea alone.
well, have you ever think of going to bikini bottom?
the seas would stink if humans built underwater cities in it. As time goes on where would the poo and pee would go? As long as humans needed money to move the most cost efficient way to dump all that is probably under the seabed which over time would seep out and taint the sees turning it into a disgusting color. Unless there's an animal under there which would eat that humans would turn that into profit and once again move because of money.
Fun fact. Indonesian, phillipines, and malaysian people have similar grammar as English. So similar that you can learn basic conversation under 100 hours, (standard is 600).
If only, the Philippines know they worth. Instant Olympic golds.. However, politics. Filipino swimmers are Chinese blood
Storm surges and flooding would be a joke for these type of people lol
Olympics championship: we have professional divers.
Bajau tribe : hold my fish.
The real aquaman tribe right here. You think the latest guiness world record for holding breath can't be broken? These guys can hold their own for hours
13 mins underwater damn! i can only hold my breath for 30-40 seconds.
They must be the inspiration for water divers in avatar
Please come to Wakatobi at Indonesia Country to see Bajau Etnicity
It's amazing that, these people knows the intricate relationship between corals and fishes when so called literates don't bother about it much.
How much of their waste goes into the ocean that they protect?
In Viti, in our ancient knowledge, we know that from the beginning of time, there were only seven (7) tribes of people. And one them is the Gonedau, the sea/river people. They have dominion over everything on this planet that involves water i.e. oasis, streams, rivers, beaches, oceans, et cetera. The Gonedau would consist of two groups, the daunisoko (sailors/voyagers) and the dauniqolo (fishermen). From the beginning, when the world was inhabited, there were only foragers and hunters. Not even farming had been done. So this Bajau people are descendents of the Gonedau family worldwide. Their patriarch (god small 'g') is Dakuwaqa, the shark god.
what are the other six tribes?

Kaya pala parang malungkot at negative vibes yung mga bajao sa video kase mga indonesian. Yung mga bajao sa sulu, masiyahin sila. They dive with a smile om their faces
Now imagine a Bajau Navy SEAL
so they are most likely the people that would survive if earth was drown underwater, and maybe on the near future we will live underwater
They look so graceful underwater… ❤
I thought the Bajau’s are Filipinos? I always thought of them as Filipinos.
They original homeland is in sulu philipines, but they spread to indonesia malaysia, afaik moken in thai myanmar border and sea people in malaka strait also related with bajau
They live in Indonesia, Malaysia, and the Philippines
Im Bajau (Samah/same) from Indonesia but I cant understand if philipinos or Malaysian bajau speak 😂

There are Bajaus that are Filipinos, likewise there also those who live in Malaysia and Indonesia.
