I always ask myself
How far can I go?
Where is the furthest place I can reach?
Where is the most isolated island in the world?
This is my first time
I feel like I'm back in the old days
in the middle of the wild forests
in Papua
where the last food and meat tribes in the world live
I'm with the women
they're all dressed like animals
the tribes that live in the most isolated places in the world
they live on the trees
an unusual tree
a very long tree
these forests are considered the second largest after the Amazon in Brazil
the most isolated tribes in the world
look, these are the tribes from the forests
they're not educated
the government suddenly took them out of the forests
and put them in a village
they're everywhere in the streets
in the airport
in front of their homes
they live without internet
they don't know how to use it
it makes life difficult
but this is what the Indonesian government wants
because they're behind this movement
we're at the end of 2020
and this trip is different from all the trips we've done
Papua has the largest gold mine in the world
it's very difficult to reach this mine
that's why the Indonesian government
took this part
from Papua
and added it to theirs
we're going to Papua
they agreed with the Australians
to take the whole share
and you can't reach it easily
to reach these forests
we had to take 4 flights
from Bali to Makassar
and from Makassar to Jibora
Jibora is the capital of Papua
we've arrived at Jibora
this city is like
this episode will take you to all of Papua
to the borders of Papua New Guinea
we're in the capital
there's a festival here
full of colors
they gather to eat the mulberry
our trip hasn't started yet
we've arrived at the capital
and we're going to the forest tomorrow
tomorrow, we'll be disconnected
there won't be internet in Jibora
we won't be able to communicate with the outside world
we're going to the center
the center of Papua
tomorrow, right?
tomorrow, we're heading to the center of the city of Papua
the jungle
in the jungle, remote Papua
and from there
we had to take a very small flight
that carries the goods
to reach
a very small village in the middle of the forest
we've arrived at this village
and the internet was completely disconnected
and we had to go through the forest
and walk for hours
to reach the Korowai tribes
that are about to end
wow
our trip in the forest has started
we have about 4 days
to go from one city to another
from one village to another
to travel from one place to another
we're now in the middle of the flying forests
these forests
are the highest and largest flying forests in the world
there's another largest island
imagine, it's like we're in the Amazon
forests you don't know
you don't know what to expect
and we're looking for the Korowai tribes
we're about 5 people
they're very isolated
isolated from the world
they're 30 or 40 years old
they're not isolated from the internet
or from the outside world
you don't know
it's the highest and largest flying island in the world
the forests are very large
as much as I imagined
there's more
the place is amazing
I'm looking for the chief's footsteps
we've arrived at the village
there's no internet
we only have our cameras
and we're in the middle of the forest
this is the adventure of 2020
this is the last one
it was easier
all the forests we saw were fake
this is real
this is the real forest
the mountain is around 3 days
3 walking days from here
this is maybe a footstep from a few days ago
so that's how I'm looking
we're looking for the footprints
to know where the tribe went
we'll try to find them
the sign like X
they put this to tell you
like a sign
not to pass from here
do you hear that?
this is them
they're welcoming us
I don't know if he's joking or not
but we heard their voices
in the middle of the forest
look at their voices
they're all women
no one is wearing anything
now we go to their house
they're welcoming us
he told me that his parents
used to eat humans
for cannibalism
it's just normal
to survive
what are they doing?
I don't know how they live here
what's their traditional clothes?
they're not wearing anything
we're going to hunt now
we're going to hunt with them
and see what we get
what do they hunt? fish and pigs
let's see their daily life
what do they do?
yes, yes, yes
he's hunting with a dog
in the traditional way
a very old way
let's see their daily life
it tastes good
it has a lot of water
it's a tree trunk
some people practice
cannibalism
it means killing
among the clans
why do they do that?
that's because of
the problems
because of the women
or maybe stealing pigs
now because of the Christianity
in Papua
make the clans
to live in peace
and now almost no
look how they're eating
they're eating fish
because they're in a forest
they don't live here
they live like
the government pushes them
even when you see the village
the village is full of people
in the streets, everywhere
why? because the government
took them out of the forest
and told them to go back
to the village
in the forest
they're always naked
but when they go back to the village
they have to wear it
the Korowai culture
that you know
is almost extinct
the rest of them
are showing us their culture
and their houses
40 years ago, they used to eat human flesh
we're leaving now
our trip is over
if you heard about the Korowai
they're the last people
to eat human flesh
then they stopped in the 60s
but some of them still do it
they're hiding in the forest
in these vast forests
the government built them houses
look at the tall trees
they used to live in it to protect themselves
from the rain
how's the Amazon?
I mean
tell us if we go to the Amazon forests in Brazil
then we'll go to the Korowai
in the middle of the forests
of the Papua
this is the biggest and the highest
island in the world
the Papua, tell us in the comments
we're done with the Toraja
the Komodo
today we're going to the Korowai
