  • This dude is sponsored by some of the most evil corporations in the world.

    You're a fake "danman".

    You're a neo-colonialist tourist.

    Look at this spoiled, suburban White guy's sponsors and subscribers on his channel.... He is a corporate whore.

    You're a hypocrite and a fake "danman".

  • @HumansAreAnimals - Hey buddy. You are obviously obessed with my videos. That's awesome! Thanks. I'd love to reply to you, but in order to respond accurately, I'd like to first know if you have ever been to Ethiopia or to Burning Man. Talk soon...

  • @HumansAreAnimals - I have compassion for you. I hope that you are relieved of your pain and sadness soon - and I hope you find understanding and happiness in your life. Since you use YouTube so much and you are obsessed with my videos, you should know that we have nothing to do with sponsors and subscribers. So, again your comments are irrelevant. We actually find them amusing. Thanks you again.

  • wooooooow how wonderful!

  • Hey Dan, I noticed a girl in the vid with the cap adorned with bottle caps.I've seen other picutres elsewhere like this.Any special significance to it, or is it just them being creative?I'd love to get to Namibia one day...been through most of Europe,but never Africa.

  • awwww how cute with the shades @ 5:52 :)

  • You are so lucky to be able to meet these amazing people...keep up the wonderful work...I will love to see more of your videos...THUMBS UP !!

  • africa is the purest place on earth

  • I bet tribes in Africa are happier then the wealthiest people on earth. :)

  • Life is interesting on the other side of the world. Thanks for the video.

  • wow.......memories!!!!!!!!!!vi­sited them last summer

  • a very interesting video,you've had an unforgetable experience,it is always great to get to know different people and cultures.

  • i want to visit there it seems so stress free

  • @thecoolkid4ever - please don't be rude.

  • @whereisdanman is right, the man and children seem very cool, maybe even wise....

  • dude this is absolutely fantastic. i mean u've made the entire shooting in ur own. there is nobody who could assist u with videotaping or there's no guide around who could give u basic information about the local people. u don't even speak their language but apparently u've perfectly interacted with them. i'm now eager 2 c the other videos u posted...

  • wow these people are at one with nature. Its amazing how nice they are.

  • In todays world and the crisis of modern societies, this kind of living is looking real inviting. I hope these people will help out their neighbors. Compared to most of us modern people these people are brilliant.

  • liveing in harmony with nature this is the only way man can truely be free thats why our ancesters gave up and destroyed there technology people to day sence the same thing and they want to live a simple life it dosent harm the plant which will sustane life for ever look what so called advancement has do to the envioroment in the last 600 years the plant is in parael !!!!!!!!! they been green for ions learn from them stop being stupid!!!!!!

  • Whereisdanman: you had a beautifully unique experience and I'm sure everyone judged you spiritually-they accepted you for your positive energy. Let these hateful posters keep spreading hate and indifference, but keep doing what you're doing.

  • music listing?

  • My body is in the USA, but my spirit and heart is with Africa. How can I not be spiritually connected to where my ancestors come!

  • Thanks Dan for the video. I wish to go to Africa some day.

  • Egypt is in AFRICA, which was once a land of Kings/Queens. All the arts and sciences comes from Kemet, which is now called Egypt. Technology would not be nothing without sciences and art.

  • @Guam...You prolly don't even know the Egypt is in AFRICA. Please do your research before you dispute. It makes you sound really ignorant, when you go off the bible.

  • I thought people from Guam were smarter than that.

  • what a fag get a translater man what fag

  • Comment removed

  • thats nasty... but then again its not like anyone would watch this video for porn and its not like that guy is going to rape them

  • its not that type of video..

  • These people live naked, my friend. Americans and Europeans do not. There are two culturla approaches to what constitutes descency, that's all.

    As a piece of anthropological footage the author was right to place it on You Tube. Otherwise people might think that people in Souther Ethiopia run around in Levis and Addidas.

  • Its freakin hot and they probably dont have much clothes, nor want any cause the heat. Romans were the most civilized people on the face of the earth. Yet they often had no clothes. Different cultures view nude people differently. If you grow up with people around you being naked, no one gives a crap, if you grow up everything saying "PUT YOUR CLOTHES ON!!!" Then you will obviously see something wrong. Truth is, we all have bodies, but some cultures made it wrong to show it, and some didnt.

  • How were the Romans civilized when they invaded the Egyptians? The most civilized people on earth were the Ancient Egyptians, not the arabs that reside their now. Why do you think Egypt was invaded 4 times. An invader do not come to civilized. An invader come to rule. The Romans invaded Egypt.

  • Being civilized has nothing to do with having combat. They were civilized because they had the most high tech buildings, tools and health. There cities were clean, and didnt have many disease. Every country, and all people have wars at some point. They had the most high tech weapons as well, which was very civilized. Eygpt had many wars too =P Read the bible =)

  • Read the bible, is that the only reference that you go by. That bible did not exist in ancient Kemet/Egypt. I suggest you read more then one book.

  • Why do you think I dont know where Egypt is... You people are so stupid... I dont even know what the hell I did, just everyone in this video comments hates me, calls me raceist... Thinks im retarded, I dont even know what I did. All I was saying was that Egypt has many wars and you can read about them in the bible... Dang... Calm down demon children... I say the world bible and everyone flips out...

  • You people? the bible don't mean chit. King James and Williams Shakespear were lovers and they retranslated the bible to coded it for their European Ethnicty. those hierglyphics are sacred on those ancient tombs. Those hierglyphics were on the tomb before any bible was ever thought about. Demon children? What if we called you a caveman from the Caucus mountains.

  • How can you call the people that are the sons and daughters of the aurthors civilization stupid? You sound ignorant. Go do more reaserch boyyyyyyyyyyyyy.

  • If a caveman came in your house univited, you would defend your territory to. Well thats all the ancients tried to do after the evil devils invaded their sacred land.

  • Oooook lol

    Cause Egypt is just one of thoughs places where no one does anything wrong lol Calling one of the most famous and BA countries in history uncivilized is kinda stupid... Rome kicked ass... Rome KICKED ASS!!! They had all the best stuff... They had stuff, thousands of years ahead of their time. Im not saying who is better Egypt or Rome, but they were definatly civilized...

  • who is the evil devils

  • @standforchange08 and egyptians enslaved the hebrews u call that civilized? dumbshit

  • How did I become racist lol Most countries in Africa are poor, that is the truth, I didnt say it cause I hate black people, its just true, all over Africa alot of people are really poor. Im sorry for being so racist =D

  • I don't know if you are basing your information off of lack of education or you r just a racist.

    The reason you see flies and mosqitos flying around African faces is because the European settlers constructed a damn to block the flow of the Nile river; the water there is stagnant ( a breeding ground for malaria). Also, whenever Africans do plant a seeds to grow food for the village or their families, Europeans run them off the land. The media totally exploits these conditions.

  • Yeah... Im so racist and stupid because iv seen videos of African people with flies on their faces... I must be the worst person in the world because iv seen thoughs videos, its all my fault and I hate black people because I saw thoughs videos, just shut up you freakin looser... If If I said black people are darker than white people, its racist... I didnt ask where the flies came from, I asked why they dont do anything about flies on their face... How am I racist you freaks!?!

  • I never said it was all YOUR! fault.

    However, from your tone it does appear you have have a lot of issues.

  • I have ALOT of issues, mostly because I said many countries in Africa are poor, now I keep getting comments like 8 months later like YOUR RACIST!!! Many countries in Africa are poor, this is true, notice in the video these people dont even have houses or clothes that protect them from nature. Im sorry you all think im racist because I said Africa has many poor countries, but im not. Like it or not, Africa is poor, I never said im better, I just said they are poor. So get over it, im not racist!

  • Africa has the greatest concentration of diamonds, oil, minerals, and precious stones than any other continent of this world. Foreigners are not in Europe looking for these goods. Africa's natural resources are building up other continents.

    So, by whose standards is Africa poor?

    Why don't they open up the damn so the river can flow again, and everything within a 100 mile radius of the river can stop dying.

    People in Africa wear clothes becasue the sun burns their skin.

  • Ok dude... Your not understanding or just being annoying and a smart ass... I didnt say that Africa was a poor landmass, I said the people in Africa were poor and starving, why would I sponser a kid from Kenya if he was perfectly ok... Hes badass, he basically is his 2 brothers dad, and hes like 12 now. I hear stories like this all the time, its not rude, its not racist, Africa is for the most part a poor place, with starving hungry unmedicaded people. Why did they close w/e river???

  • You're right. These people of Africa are poor, can't stop flies sit on their faces and don't have anything to wear, but you know what? they're happy and singing even when their ways of life is interrupted by intrusive whiteman's camera. They never asked for help because they have dignity. survive or die honorably. That's the truth. There's no need to accuse of you of racism though.

  • Didnt say they were unhappy or under white peoples camera bags or whatever... I didnt really understand what white people have to do with this conversation... But they are poor, its the truth.

  • @omgitzdoeB oh witey beez oppressin gen? Why can't these 'black geniuses' create a way to counter it? They can't.

  • nice of them to invite you in hope u gave them something

  • Then get off your computer and go! If you really want to do it go, leave your warm santary house and go live with them, or stop talking crap... I dont wanna be mean, but dont take your dang near perfect life for granted and talk like we are horrable people... Im not a horrable person because I live in a house and own a car!

  • ye seriously, these ppl are seriously under privileged

  • This is how humans are supposed to live. People say they are stupid and primitive, but in reality their way of living is so much more practical. I would rather live with these great people than in the unjust society I live in right now.

  • agreed. Their way of living would be so peaceful.

  • Have you seen africa... No food, water or medicine...Civil wars all the time whole villages wipped out... Shut up, you dont know what your talking about... Peaceful!?! Maby you should get off your freakin computer and go visit these "Peaceful" place Africa... I think this stuff is interesting, but I wouldent give up water,my house,medicine and probly my life to go live in Africa with nothing but my body and a tiny crappy hut. Your just a ignorant American who takes their life for granted!!!

  • There are no civil wars in the Hamer and Omorate Tribes. Everyone lives together peacefully.

  • Not entirely... inter-tribe rivalary is very common.

  • Comment removed

  • Just because these people are nice dosent mean the people next door are... Im sure Africa is not a fun place to live, even these people probably need water and food and medicine. I dont hate Africa, I hate people like you thinking everyone in America is a fat coutch potato who dosent give a crap about anything outside his or her own living room. America saves billions of people from starvation and dehydration and medical problems each year! were not bad people just cause we arnt starving...

  • Comment removed

  • I dont hate black people, and I know that Africa is a continent and there is countries and cities, but I also know there is alot of fighting and diseases and poverty in Africa. I cant think of one African country where there are people sitting on Youtube and eating chips just hanging out... You sure take things over the edge... Im a white supremisit because I dont like when people say im curropt and evil cause im not poor... That makes me a white supremist right... btw My dad is asian lol

  • Comment removed

  • I dont even understand what that means!?! lol Get over it, Africa would not be one of the funnest places to live, just deal with it... Im not racist, im not a white supremist leader of the KKK or any of thoughs things. I just dont think it would be that fun to live in a place with no water, food or medicine or even a house or clothes in the dessert. Im sorry =D I got a KKK meeting in a few minutes, so thats all for now, bye!

  • you seem to have a really one sided view of Africa. There are lots of Africans on yt actually some of them are vloggers with popular channels. They argue under videos just like you, but maybe not the type of videos you happen to watch. Also tribal doesnt = poor it just means a different set of values. Their currency is real where as america's is fake (cows & goats vs. paper and credit). Their life style also doesnt destroy the earth. And "Meds" are no match for herbs.

  • there are ppl in Africa who are starving but thats a small part of Africa. Africa is the largest continent it can fit America twice maybe more. These ppl are living of the land not poor there's a difference. It's there culture and they teach themselves about things they want to know and have their own medicine. Western medicine is made for the white ppl's body make up any way. That why other "races" esp blacks don't do so well western doctors would kill Africans w/ their drugs

  • All im trying to say is that just because Americans live in houses with clothes and medicine dosent make us evil like thoughs people were talking about... Then they played the "You just hate black people!" card, but I pretty much expected that one... Im pretty sure these people are cosidered poor, they definatly arnt rich... That dosent mean they are sad or unhappy, but im sure medical and food is a problem for alot of Africa...I sponsered a kid from Africa, Im not racist... get over it =P

  • How can you say "Western medicine is made for white people's bodies"?! Do you understand basic biology and the difference between black and white people?! Totally ridiculous comment.

  • You obviously havn't taken enough science in school.

  • where ever in Africa you find disease, starvation, genocide, civil war, etc you will find direct & indirect interference, corruption, and down right inhumanity of whites/arabs. Africa does not need the western world's GMO corn but rather to have everyone take their hand out her safe they broke into all these centuries. They take out diamonds, history, human beings, and what do they put back? Drugs, GMO corn, and guns. Get a clue. FYI some conscious people live in tribe like co-ops voluntarily

  • Ok so everything wrong in Africa is cause white people, you win. You all win, all you freaks on this page win. Your all correct. Im evil/raceist cause im half white. Everything wrong in Africa is cause white people. White people only kill and make slaves of black people, they NEVER try to help them with billions of dollars a year. Our "white people medicine" only kills black people and makes it worse. The reason half of Africa is in civil war is cause white people, same with AIDS.

  • Yes whites is evil and if they really wanted to help the could use some of that war money to build a water system in places wear there are famen they spent 10 billion dollars a moth on war but cant feed the hungry there are 1 billion people starving to death. And also white is the ones who put AIDS in Africa for population and put together a system in America so black men can kill there self off.white people need to be off the planet and nature making that happen the sun getting hotter no babys

  • Thats all stupid lol Why are we the ones that have to save you??? If we help you, you cry about it, if we dont, you cry about it... Just shut up... People all over the world has AIDS so stop being a baby, even in our "horrible" America. Your a complete idiot... A system so black men kill themselves off??? Iv noticed this "system" hasent been working so well, seeing as all my black friends are still alive lol xD Sorry we cant save everyone... Were busy in Iraq helping people, SORRY.

  • jveut y aller

  • I think you are an amazing person. I've always wanted to go to Africa, where human civilization had its birth. I absolutely love what you're doing. I am Indian, living in America and wishing to travel the world looking for experiences like yours. Oh well. Guess I have to stick to my technology gig and die this way too. :( I envy you :)

  • WOW...amazing! this is one of the greatist videos I have seen on YT yet..very real and candid. Thank you for sharing it with us. <3

  • beautiful..I'm an ethiopian..but I never get to visit Hamer! I have read a book about Hamer and really wanted to go see but things didnt work out. Amazing video. its intersting how there is absolutly different culture's in Ethiopia and sometimes its like totally different world in just one nation. I wonder people who are watching this think the whole ethiopia is like this..cause one part of ethiopia is totally opposite to the other side. anyways I wish this people keep their pure culture alive.

  • lol there are people(GuamKomudo) here who commented only a few posts above you who figure all of Africa is tribal and that no one has the internet let alone comments on youtube if they are from Africa. Its funny how the truth can be right in front of someone's face but they choose to keep believing whatever picture they painted in their heads. I hope you do go see the Hamer and post a vid, I want to know about their locs how they do them. I want my hair like that, but without the claybutter

  • Actually your just stupid and pretty much make up what I know in your own mind... Your just an idiot that cant understand what other people are saying (Like me) Your just one of thoughs annoying loosers that take what they want from someones words and leave out the rest so they look bad and stupid. I know very well not ALL of Africa is tribal. So just shut up and stop making up crap idiot... I never said once, that "All of Africa is tribal" so get a life...

  • Wow, this really is beautiful. You are super cute and a pretty good filmmaker!

  • that is amaizing. id love to do resurch on african tribes when i grow up. i think theese people are beautiful. for now, im only a freshmen in highschool. so i have a bit of time before that haha:)

  • i wonder what they think when this dude shows up.

  • They wonder why they arent getting paid for all this free reality tv footage, but to many people Africa is just a big free for all (not to necessarily say the creator of this particular video was of such an unethical nature). Trust me the tribes especially Hamar are used to tourists. Their perspectives on this very thing have been documented and are up on the web somewhere.

  • Thank you so much to share your amazing trip!!!. Beautiful photose!

  • Reminds me of the story of Eden how Adam and Eve were naked and not ashamed. Amazing footage!

  • A a happy and sweet looking people. Africa is so strange that way in terms of extremes. I've never seen sadder people than in Africa. I've never seen HAPPIER people than in Africa. I can't wait to go back again.

  • this is the shit they don't show on tv great work n for all white people who like this ur a good person.

  • What's with the Spanish at the end?

    I thought it was Ethiopian music?

  • omg the lady at 4.00 looks so scary why does she blood all over her body. or that red liquid

  • sweetxx

  • That was nice.The beauty :)

  • so sweet

  • more proof we africans were the ancient egyptians look at those faces

  • Pure people

  • Ah ok asked that before the spanish music kicked in. Which was also really nice!! Really good vid. Thanks for sharing :) :)

  • Great video and beautiful background music!!! Is this Ethiopian music??? Natalie :) :)

  • They look innocent and beautiful...

  • Yes, extremely. And, they are also very happy and goofy!

  • Thanks for the beautiful video, I somewhat have mixed feelings about it, and understand Guanjo's inarticulated anger. Your intentions seem to be good, but just know that they're have been many Westerners who have come into places like this one, and have unintentionally and intentionally corrupted it with their savage ways. Now Im not accusing you of that but it's because of those past people's actions that not everyone is gonna have a pleasant reaction to it. Especially us Afrikans

  • Thank you PhunkyFaroah. Your comment was very well articulated and I understand your concern and your message to me. Have you ever been to Ethiopia or to the Omo Valley? I think it is a shame that the Ethiopian government is building a road through the Omo Valley which will allow tourists to go there easily. I went there alone with Mieraf from Arba Minch and Tischa - a Hamer from Turmi. They took me to their people. The experience changed me forever.

  • That's unfortunate to hear, I hope things change for the better in Omo Valley. I plan on taking a trip to Ethiopia sometime next year, in the meantime Im learning some Amharic. I can only imagine how amazing of an experience that must be. I guess if the elder in the video (with all his cosmic wisdom) trust you into is home you must be a cool cat. Take care

  • MARCH 2008. wow! that's a really recent trip to Ethiopia. Nice tribe, they seem humble!

  • Yes. Quite humble. But, I think better words to describe them would be happy, creative and joyful. Have a great weekend.

  • id like to know some of the names of those songs. are they ethiopian traditional songs, or just random african music? very pleasant sounding

  • Hey there. sorry for my slow reply. Yes - this is Ethiopian music by an artist named "Teddy Afro". He's amazing. Check into it. The woman that you thought looked "bloody" was NOT bloody at all. That was a grease mixture of goat-butter and soil. It is used to keep the hair shiny (for beauty) and also to keep the jewelry from chafing their skin in the hot sun.

  • isn't he in jail?

  • @AFRICANCULTURE i might seem rude but wat is ur tribe?

  • Comment removed

  • @Tha0wn4g3 why do u not respect other peoples cultures? i dont hate u nor do i have a black heart for you but i dont understand y you need to be so spitefulxoxopeace

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • @Tha0wn4g3 yer well u are blind and theres something wrong with you becoz u have no culture so what would you knw u dont understand coz uve never been in a tribe u dont understand the meaning of the world u dont have to look beautiful u have to be ablck to fight and theres lots of tribes that wear clothes and beautiful beads but i think this one is very beautiful all of them are but then agen y do they have to look beautiful to u i dont care u have no culture u wudint knwxoxo

  • @Theblackbarbie698 I know, I'm racist :) But I'm gonna stop

  • @Tha0wn4g3 ok :)

  • @Theblackbarbie698 I see it now after some quick research. Turns out tribes like these have it made. They have lots of time for rituals and culture, discussions ect. I didn't even know this!

  • @Tha0wn4g3 so are u saying thats a good thing or bad thing i dont understand?...have what made?

  • @Theblackbarbie698 It's a much more practical, spiritual, and beautiful way to live. No, all I meant by "have it made" is that they don't have to work 60 hours a week for a corrupt Government and they have a lot of time for dances and rituals.

  • @Tha0wn4g3 ooh :D thank you for saying that becoz many people just compare us to other tribes around the world especially american and say that ours are inferior stupid or not beautiful as the ones in america and i just say that people are diffrent and if u wanna belive that they are better then ok we cant do anything about it we will just do our best becoz people say they like this culture better than this one but its a tradition n u cant change it so yer thanks for not saying we are inferior..

  • hello dan i Love your videos

    where else in africca you been

  • Thanks! Ethiopia and Tanzania. You could spend a month in each place and enjoy EVERY moment!!

  • How fortunate you are to experience these things.  Great video!!

  • Thanks!! I do feel so very fortunate. Glad that I was able to share it with you!

  • Girl @ 8:22 is model material!

  • I know!! I agree. I have many photos of her. I wish she took my sunglasses off so you could see her eyes. Her hair is amazing too!
