Bruce Parry goes to live with the Suri tribe of southwest Ethiopia and takes part in the fierce stick fights that are at the heart of Suri culture. These fights, called donga, have traditionally been used to settle scores between villages, and to keep order. But the system is increasingly threatened by the invasion of guns. No longer are the elders looked to for permission that a donga can take place -- with a bullet, retribution can be swift, and fatal.

  • @dertyhype It's all fun and games smacking each other with sticks until someone loses an eye then it's hilarious because then you'll be grabbing guns.

  • @JTelli786 they get them from illigal traders, there probly isnt much wild things to hunt there thats why they all have cattle and some tribes do use guns instead of bows/other things like that now

  • our whole society could learn from these people. If aliens ever come to earth, i hope they come talk to these tribes

  • no offince meant when i ak this but how did the tribes get guns, and ammo, and why not hunt with thoughs

  • @OffToTheWoods You a free to live with those people if you think they are so much better. I admire them for one thing though. They dont have to deal with oikophobic clowns like you in their tribe, like we have to in the western culture. Trading women for cattle actually revolve around wealth and things of the flesh moron. Love and spirit is not measured by how primitive your society is . Now get your ass off the computer and stop using the evil white mans inventions. Live the way you preach!

  • just regular drive by ...

  • Lots of respect for the elder

    We are all one

  • Who wants to stick fight now

  • I'll tell you later xD

  • they are all so cool
