This footage, allegedly taken in 1976, features the Toulambi tribe of Papua New Guinea making their first contact with the outside world and with white men. The clip is quite long, (almost 15 minutes), but well worth watching every second. Like the beginning titles say, "It's amazing the reaction to the unknown! Look at the faces of fear, wonder and joy later!" We feel the same way when we meet a white person.

    doesn't seem to be the first time. they're too friendly. i know if i were carrying a bow and arrow and all i've ever known is the jungle and my tribe i'd be terrified and would be pointing it. just saying.
