The more I deal with people the more I understand the North Sentanalese perspective
Not even joking, some British perv went there in like the 1800’s or something and did a bunch of weird shit with them. That’s why they don’t trust visitors
Ain't that the truth
So you understand inbreeding
I think Forrest is mistaken. In videos you see and specifically one video in a bay seemingly there enormous trees in the background behind a group of north sentinelese men. Those forests in that background, take a look. You'll know the picture when you find it.
@@Thehomelessathlete what does this have to do with forrest being mistaken though?? I don't get the connection
These guys clearly haven't seen the incredibly accurate natural history documentary Kong Skull Island. North Sentenal is well known to have a giant flesh eating gorilla, a breeding population of TRex plus many titanaboas. Do wish they'd pop a few more tins and get with the whole isolated island theme.
Love that documentary
That gorilla no longer populates the Skull Island/Archipelago, a team of researchers had to locate a new habitat for it after it became a prized target by hunters. A location was established and a plan was swiftly implemented to get the gorilla, named Kong, to his new home. However, the gorilla and team of researchers soon find themselves in the path of an enraged Godzilla as he cuts a swath of destruction across the globe. The initial confrontation between the two titans -- instigated by unseen forces -- was only the beginning of the mystery that lies deep within the core of the planet.
😂😂
The andaman and nicobar and the sentanalese ilands all are part of India. Indian navy does regular patrols to make sure no person desturbs them, but every decade or so some really excited missionary finds a way to get there unseen and ends up dead. Indian navy does not allow anyone to get in a 3 mile radius to the iland. The only way for you to see the iland upclose is to book a flight from mainland India to the port blair airport, or vice versa. People have put videos on youtube of the flight and of the iland. The whole iland is covered in dense forests.
*island
i was there on both islands with a 15 member israeli commando team ------2 machineguns,1 flame thrower,1 bazooka, 2 snipers and 6 semiautomatic riflemen with grenade launchers. we are all cross trained so that included radio operator and medic
Thank u for doing a video on north sentinel Island and doing a video about what kind of mysterious species of animals that are on the island
European people took several people from that island in the 1800s and eventually returned a couple because the rest had died. So those survivors went and told their people what was done to them. So their stories of the outside world aren't very good and I don't blame them for wanting to be left alone. They absolutely need to be protected as they are. When "civilized" people's wars have eliminated most of the population the hopefully uncontacted people will get to repopulate.
Would make an epic animated movie lol, fallout but jungle edition lol
They don’t leave the island, there’d be no repopulation.
I don’t think you understand how “repopulation” works
I think Forrest is mistaken. In videos you see and specifically one video in a bay seemingly there enormous trees in the background behind a group of north sentinelese men. Those forests in that background, take a look. You'll know the picture when you find it.
They're probably genetically inferior and very inbred by this point. Wouldn't do our species any good if they were the only ones left
I reckon there's a thylacine or two there, in fact I bet they keep them as pets 😂

@@NotLately 😂😂😂
I’ve always wanted to visit Sentinel Island because I want to know What kind of wildlife there is. I also want to live so I know I will never visit it.
The wildlife will come to greet you with spears and axes 🤣
Why not use drones?
Because it is illegal
@@ES11777or condoms
@@ES11777 They've tried. They've almost always gotten shot down.
There’s just like a dragon living there
More like five of them, but they are only smart-car sized.
Smaug's benevolent brother.
Missionaries go there every 10 years? Not true, one guy went. Previously, the Indian government had sent scientists there, but no longer do that. Get your facts straight.
The clueless speculators 😂
I don't know about undiscovered animals but they may still have animals there that are endangered in the rest of the island chain.
how come north sentinel can refuse outsiders but western countries can't??
They kill the outsiders.
Western countries have decided that they benefit from immigration (which they do) and have opted t allow it. No one's forcing it on you, despite what you may believe most people are in favor of immigration. although i'm sure it's comfortable for a moron like you to believe that all your problems are caused by a mysterious cabal of jews or lizards, maybe both.
@@lobstro2915 Not enough babies are been born (govt policies) so that is why business wants them in. Not the average joe that is for sure.
in canada we gotta send all these indian to north sentinel
@user-pc2jp2yr3c not enough babies are born in Western countries because Western countries are taxed to death, making it near impossible to have more than one or two kids. Most people would have three or four kids if they could afford to.
Who wants to fund my armor that can’t be pierced by arrow, stick, knife, drowning, fire, or axe and discover a new species? Everyone who donates is a percentage founder of the new species ❤
Maybe a Jurassic park transparent ball 😂 you have no idea how serious I am
😂😂😂
The only ever time it’d be safe to go there is if your well armed and armoured, I’m talking military grade stuff, and probably a couple guys
They just dont want to pay taxes..
🏹🐟!!!
what about flightless bird?
What episode is this from
Excellent explanation
It's part of India
Lord Miles is going!!
i was there last month and i saw a tyrannosaurus rex
As someone of part indigenous descent I’m on the islanders side.
The very beginning was kind of biasedly said there's only one missionary ever documented doing that John Chao other contacts have nothing to do with there Evangelical Church folk none of them have done it since I think it's fair to say that so far lesson was learned hopefully but to be fair that's only happened once and guy made it sound like it's been multiple times
Evangelicals would like to convert them.
Which is just as disgusting as what Chao tried to do.
People should read more about WHY these people attack anyone that sets foot on their island. It wasn't always this way!
Yes they are Cannibals
What about a small primate?
Is it true they just found a whole new orca that can’t even cross breed with the know orcas?
The island is actually owned by India
I heard there are tasmanian tigers all over the place
All of the US military would totally pin down these islanders just for scientist to see the unidentified animals
They could absolutely be cannibals. We don't know.
Its owned by India
North Sentinel Island is NOT uncommunicated with!!! The British (during their colonialism/ exploitation of India) did successfully land on the island, they then kidnapped & held 2 adults + 2 children…. To be fair, the ‘hostages’ were treated as guests (the thought being that upon release the captives would be overjoyed about their experiences)…. Unfortunately Brits brought with them viruses/ bacterium/ illnesses to which the natives had no immunity to, & both adults died…
That’s why outsiders are not welcome!!!
Those Wakadans sure are hostile. Not as tech savvy as we've been led to believe though
TLDR: There are probably unknown species of animals that already exist today, due to the island opening new niches for animals to fill, and so the animals evolve over time to better fill said niches. Theres probably at least a few native bird species, maybe some small reptiles like lizards or geckos, native species of small mammals and insects etc
The North Sentanalese are my spirit animal.
I think Forrest is mistaken. In videos you see and specifically one video in a bay seemingly there enormous trees in the background behind a group of north sentinelese men. Those forests in that background, take a look. You'll know the picture when you find it.
Dollars to donuts you are Not their spirit animal . ☆
The North Sentinelese wouldn’t give a shit. Sorry not sorry.
Why not just give the locals some small pox blankets and wait a while to study the animals
Is it bad that I was thinking the same thing?
Why wife's uncle has been there about 10 years ago
Islands geography seems pretty typical, I doubt there's much of interest.
Hey Forrest it's Indian...and not Malaysian.. please correct yourself
It's aliens.😅
Every ten years? the fuck is bro talking about? It was one time a news story that happened a few years ago with a missionary.
I think there's a dinosaur
I fully condone a zealot visiting every once in a while..........and let nature do its thing😂
It is owned by India
What kind of predator lives on sentinel island.....
I guess we should fly drones over the island to see whats there
I think we should all leave North Sentinel Island and its people alone. This applies especially to the predatory missionary types lurking around waiting to prey on the unwary. Fortunately, it would seem that the N. Sentinelese are, indeed, wary. Wary af, and I believe it's no exaggeration to say that they are in fact well wary.
Just send a guy in a Master Chief suit to survey the island, they won’t be able to do shit to him.
Are they Animals OR WE are?.
Both
They. They’re savages.
Is this an attempt to find a reason to mess with those people? Yeah stay away from them.
But why?
@@oilersridersbluejays They've already killed many people and I don't think they'd take kindly to us trying to contact them again despite them making it very very clear that they don't want to be contacted by us.
North sentinel island is off of Sri Lanka not Tasmania retep me ol fruit 😉
There 100% eat people they ate rokerfeller
winters-ghost,
Are you attempting to refer to Michael Rockefeller ?
Disappeared in Dutch New 🇬🇳 Guinea / now South Papua in '61 ?
Head hunting and cannibalism was outlawed at the time, which doesn't mean much out of the towns.
He may have assumed his family's name would have preceded/ protected him, and acted as such.
A 23 year old, male, filthy wealthy, can not be expected to be worldly wise, and may act in such a manner ... ☆
They would have 💯, eaten them all lmao
To be fair…reptile, invertebrate,amphibian sp.
I think we should all donate so Forrest can go and look for some at island... only if he goes alone lol
That's a stupid take
@@atm1919 that way if he finds anything new nobody can say oh he didn't discover it ............ 😂
@noelramirez1551 here I thought u were implying u wanted him to get killed by the natives🙄😒
How can you be making a documentary about it and you don't know it's India😅
Just make sure you are vegan if you go so you taste better.
There are pigs on that island. Wonder how they got there.
I think a boat dropped some items on the beach then retreated.
Yeah they carry spears.
Why don't us humans evolve anymore, oh wait because evolution doesn't work.
Are you low IQ?
We are.....please do some research
*doesn't work on humans, we watch it work on everything else
Although really, that's not why. One reason is because humans haven't existed for long enough. Give it 1 million years, and the Sentinelese people on that island won't be able to have babies with us anymore. And there you go -- different species.
But there's another reason. Humans have _language_ . So what evolves quickly now is _knowledge_ , not physical bodies, because parents pass on new behaviors through language now, and not genes.
If you look at left-wing people and right-wing people who typically don't make babies together, you might start to see some speciation or divergence in the population.
It took us 500,000 years to finally start a civilization, we’ve only had written history for a few thousand years, and you’re expecting to witness species level changes in real time??? 😂
Silly god squader.
They need some black people to try to contact them
I used to be a missionary like you, and then I took an arrow to the knee.
Its the Anderman Islands, and its part of India.
Anderman?
Andaman*
Ender man I’m joking
@@tymeng683 and-a-man
My wife's uncle has been there, about 10 years ago.
What about Madagascar? It's relatively close to Africa, but has so many diverse species that don't occur anywhere else.
Madagascar has been separated from Africa since the Mesozoic era.
Much greater distance between Africa and Madagascar than nth sentinel island and the rest of its archipelagos better documented islands. Plus Madagascar has been a separate landmass for an extremely long time that broke off from a main continent, different to those islands as it allows Madagascar to have a much more diverse started ecology. Finally Madagascar isn’t just many thousands of times as big, but also have many, many different biomes due to terrain, currents, and other influences such sizeable landmasses face. Madagascar has mountainous climates that also allow a higher density of speciation due to so many natural boundaries to many species. It is also within the tropical zone which just further saturates the results of all previously mentioned points
@atriox7221 Fair enough, I haven't looked at a map or globe in awhile. I just thought it was fairly close to Africa, which different species have been known to swin long ways, and the crazy chance a tropical storm carries something over on a piece of driftwood or something, but if it's too far from the mainland then that makes sense.
I think Forrest is mistaken. In videos you see and specifically one video in a bay seemingly there enormous trees in the background behind a group of north sentinelese men. Those forests in that background, take a look. You'll know the picture when you find it.
@@ThehomelessathleteDude, get a life. You copy and pasted this comment on everyone else's comment. Also, no one's gonna take advice from someone called homeless athlete.😂
The Andaman and Nicobar Islands belong to India.
Who cares.
Belong? Lol sounds colonial
@@by7810 to me it just sounds like stupid nationalistic bragging about islands that nobody gives a damn about.

It's say it's also too small for any huge carnivores or herbivores to life there .
True, except for the T Rex that lives there.
@@pietropes1322you’re trippin ass bro😂
Probably a lot of sea turtles and tortoises. Birds probably make up a large percentage of animals there. I would suspect that is the dirt for the North Sentinelese.
The Andaman and Nicobars are owned by India. They are closest to Myanmar though.
Day 1 of asking the wild times crew to cover the bizarre mystery of shrinking Gray Whales off the coast of Oregon, the full grown whales off the coast of Oregon are apparently 13% smaller than the ones off the coast of Oregon in 2000
I wonder how many they measure cause if you measure like 10 you might not get an accurate representation if you do it again 24 years later
Owned by India

north sentinel island belongs to India not Malaysia
They said India
@@CaptCKernel and then at 1:24 went on to say he thinks it belongs to Malaysia
@@Frequencydead I believe he was referencing the Nicobar Islands? I mean, he's a biologist and naturalist I wouldn't expect him to know about the sovereignty of tiny islands halfway around the world that even I didn't know before looking it up
@@CaptCKernel Nicobar islands also belong to india so even if that's what he meant it's still incorrect
@@SlevinCCX I wasn't arguing for the sake of arguing, I was putting forth a logical explanation.
I could say correcting something that has 0 relevance to the video and then your recent comment is way more argumentative than my replies but you do you boo
I dont feel india owns that island. Seeing as that tribe has been there for 60,000 year and the Indian subcontinent has been flourishing for around 5,000-6,000 years and its peoples joined together to form a civilization in roughly 1500 BCE.
They can protect them but they dont own that island those people have owned it since they first left Africa
You don't own anything until you put a 17-year-old with a rifle on it. Feelings are meaningless.
Your feelings dont matter.
By philosophical pov no body owns anything... You don't even own your body .... But by technocal point of view ... Sentinal islands belong to india ....
@bruanlokisson8615 a 17 y/o with a gun? Bro what am I missing a reference or something?
Why couldn’t some sort of drone or hidden can be sent there for research? Obviously would need to remain undetected
theyve tried and they shoot arrows at drones , helicopters & boats.
@@eastsidesito562 that’s not hidden then is it!
@@chowsarcade988 yes , it was tried and failed... now any visitation is 100% illegal
It can probably be done but in a very small scale to be useful, I think the thick forest/jungle is the biggest obstacle. You would either have to be too far or cover a very small área, like placing a periscope camera barely peeking from afar into a beach or something like that and hope to catch something interesting. There are very small drones but they are noisy and can barely fly for a couple of minutes. I think it should be important to know if the population is decreasing and how global warming and rising sea levels are affecting life on the island. The question of native species is an interesting one and the ethics of "spying" are complicated and there is little to gain from it.
That said, it would be fascinating.
north sentinel Island is owned by India not malaysia
Uber based Sentinelese
Über is German for over.
i cannot understand why they cant send some drones disguised as rocks or coconuts to there when they be sending rovers to mars
@@mortzy2149 read what i said i dont think they'll notice a rock with a camera in it, fuck youre dumb
It would be suspicious if there was a floating coconut circling the tribe
As nice as it would be to go over there and take a look, you'd upset the people we all agreed to leave alone. They don't play nice with outsiders and you'd have no peace whatsoever from them as they would keep trying to kill you or chase you off and retaliation would become inevitable which would just make them even less likely to ever tolerate a future scientific expedition.
In short, not now.
Maybe in a century or two.
These guys aren’t very good at geography but he is correct. If there is anything endemic on North Sentinel, it would be a reptile or maybe a bat.
Well they are American. I thought us Canadians were bad with geography, but at least I know where the Adaman Islands are. I’m surprised they could even find India, let alone Malaysia.
I found something really strange on the island via Google earth, like a settlement with structures.
Did you find the one on the neighbouring island that is apparently uninhabited?
They are deadly dangerous. They look like human but they can think and see things more like animals
I don’t like missionaries converting because its basically destroying a unique and beautiful religion (not saying catholic or christians are bad)
Why dont the government make them pay taxes n shit
drone? Come on it’s not hard
Elvis lives on North Sentinel.
And Bigfoot and H1tl3r too
So you think there's no chance of an undiscovered mammal or possibly, marsupial there?
What if the north sentinel island people make boats and travel in land they'd probably be savage asf 😂
The idea that there isnt some animal native to the island whether different species entirely or cousin of whatever is outstanding. Id be more surprised if there wasnt
I bet its so beautiful in its own unique way there 😢 not worth catching an arrow over tho 💀
I want to go there but to teach them technology. I'm alot more looking like them than a random white man
Goodluck with going there!😂
Ask John Allen Chau. Oh wait.
Where can i find the whole pod cast episode?
So these are the smart islanders, keeping away the world's problems from them
That's a naive way of looking at it. In reality, they're very primitive people, still living as hunter-gatherers in grass huts. Objectively, that's the opposite of smart.
@@BornIn1500 Whales and dolphins must be dumb then because they don't build houses, right?
@@BornIn1500 lol, me was sarcastic 🙃 but they do a good job at the 6feet apart, those spears are how they tell is someone is to close 😉
They be dead if we go into contact with them after crossing a certain threshold in the time it takes for them being expose to us.
There is nothing smart about them to be honest. Yeah, modern society is whack, but so is living in the Stone Age.
0:05 L soy atheist Forrest
Stop liking your own comment weird fucker 😂 L dumb fuck
North Sentinel Island should be left alone, strictly and totally alone, forever!
We all know someone with a bible is getting in there
The getting in isn't the problem.
That's the island where chihuahua's eat lions 😊
