This is a link post Photos taken from the air of uncontacted tribes
I know it's the Daily Fail, but still pretty fascinating stuff.

This is a normal post They really should be left in peace!
We don't need to ruin their culture

This is a normal post We need to ruin their trees to make nice furniture
and we need to ruin their land to grow palm trees for biofuel

Their culture will be preserved for eternity in a National Geographic Documentary

This is a normal post Ha!
"One of Earths last uncontacted tribes", so why not scare the shit out of them by flying a loud, unfamiliar object over them just to gawp at them? Poor folks.

This is a normal post So even on this tiny planet there are people who do not know of technology
Whats to say that there aren't aliens then; looking over us as we look over them, commenting on how we probably think their transport vehicle is some sort of bird?

This is a normal post questions...
* why not do this from a satellite or vehicle too high for these people to see, rather than bother them?

* How do we know they are there without having used satellites? Surely if they have seen us before, then technically we HAVE contacted them...

* How do we know there aren't more people we haven't contacted? If we'd contacted them then..well...we'd know they were there....

* The quote "The tribespeople are likely to think the plane that took this photograph is a spirit or large bird" is hilarious. How do we know the natives aren't saying "There's another cunt from the daily mail, if i can throw this pointy stick up his arse, can i borrow your copy of Ghostbusters on blu-ray?"

This is a normal post i seem to rememebr reading some time after these pics were originaly released
that they had been contacted previously, and that the guy that released them told a little bit of a porky to raise awareness of logging practices that threaten communities such as these.

This is a normal post I've seen this before somewhere
I think it's slightly horrible. I have visions of a plummy retired colonal doing laps in his plane while the stupid natives are scared shitless, look at em, I'll buzz em lower next time, haw haw haw!
...sorry, I have strange visions sometimes...

This is a normal post This was over a year ago...
And pretty much was determined to be a bit of a stretching of the truth. As Jorvic said above, it was just some hippy-fueled "SAVE THE TREES AND THE PEOPLES TOO" thing that the press ate up. I'm all for saving the planet and all, but since so many people made a fuss over the funny painted men, and a year has passed, I'm sure they're all browsing b3ta on their laptops by now.

Hello silly painted men.

This is a normal post It's a taster...
..shortly to be followed by an 'expose'* of how they are coming over to our country and poaching our animals, getting paid benefits to do so and stealing all the jobs in Hull. And trying to kill Phillip so they can marry the queen and steal her away to live in the jungle.

*honest!
