A YouTuber visits an indigenous island tribe that has had “barely any contact with the outside world”

An Australian YouTuber traveled to the ‘forgotten islands’ of Northern Vanuatu, where outsiders rarely get an inside look at tribal life.

Brodie Moss, a vlogger from Exmouth, Western Australia, visited Kwakéa Island and documented his trip in a video.

Moss refers to a Caucasian man on Kwakéa Island simply as Brett.

Brett lives on the island after his grandfather gained permission to remain there from the locals after ‘the war’.

Local indigenous tribes on the surrounding islands continue to live as their forefathers did: off the land, catching fish from the sea, and cut off from the modern world and all technology.

“Welcome to the South Pacific’s forgotten islands,” Moss said in the viral video, which has been viewed over 2.2 million times.

“I’m in Vanuatu’s northernmost island group; there are no shops, little power or reception, and we’ll eat whatever we can catch from the ocean or on the land.”

Before the group boards a boat to visit the more isolated indigenous people, Brett shows off his tiny, ramshackle hut.

“Do you see those islands off in the distance? We’re heading in their direction. They are the islands with which Brett trades and where all the locals come from “Brodie stated.

“But, with the exception of Brett, they haven’t really seen people like us before, so anything is possible.”

Some were drawing their bows and arrows.

Instead of shooting, the native tribesmen take Brett and Brodie to the chief.

Before the chief speaks, the chanting and whooping villagers can be seen falling silent.

“I welcome both of you with my people,” he said in a translation.

The tribe then breaks out in song and dance, as the Aussie and his friends can be seen breathing a sigh of relief.

Later in the clip, Brodie said: “I was not expecting that. That was one of the most beautiful, insane, and kind of scary experiences I’ve ever had but [it has given me] all the feels, all of the emotions.

“The people here are amazing.”

According to one commenter: “On the way to the village, one villagers drew his bow and arrow at Brodie. It was difficult to predict whether the islanders would lead them to death or celebration at first.”

“It was scary at first,” a second said, “but they are the true sons and daughters of nature.”

“What’s mind-boggling is that all these ancient tribes seem to be so much happier than we are,” said a third.

Survival International estimates that there are more than 100 “uncontacted” tribes around the world today.
