How long can u hold ur breath?

Bajao ka?

U lyin

Incredible! I would love to visit and know these lovely people!

Cap, your lying, stop this nonsense, give us some prof before you claim

His mom so relax diving with that home dress making that scene look so epic like their house is inside the water

That mom is legit a badass.

She make it looks so easy as well. I can't even dive properly in a pool.

and she swam with full dresses not with bikini

To them its not different than when our mom picks herbs and fruits from the backyard😂 well sea is their backyard anyway.

Lol.. u never really knew them do u? U'r just one of those people who try say something good for sympathy... I encountered one of them whenever i ride a public transpo.. they beg for money.. i tried giving them food but they just threw it on the window w/ attitude, and they insist for money.. I didn't say all of them but "some of them.. lmao on u jc

​@@memesapprovedbydoggoshiba5325 Sorry for your bad experience but you can't generalize them all as bad. Yes these people beg at the streets but you will never see these people terrorize the city with bombs and all kinds of trouble.

@@jasmineamorgan lmao read the last statement in my comment.. wdy even mean by bombing.. so that's when u can tell an ethnicity is bad when they're bombing and things

You just confused! Thats goodjao!

In Bohol and Cebu, badjao kids spit on their hands and threaten to wipe it to you if you don't give them money

I really liked that movie

I watching this thanks to that movie

just watched the movie yesterday

Oh false proverbs

I don't think these people care about competing at the olympics. it seems that they prioritize the preserving of the mature, their community and economy more, which serve essentially to their literal and cultural survival.

Tradisi dan budaya adalah lebih penting bagi mereka demi mempertahankan keberadaan mereka di masa depan

Yes Philippines, Indonesia, and Malaysia would be demolishing the swimming olympics if our countries give citizenship and opportunities for the Bajau’s and other sea fearing tribes in our countries and also for other discriminated tribes and ethnic groups in our country

Being able to breath less isn’t as advantageous as u may think. Free diving and swimming on top of the water are entirely different. It’s like saying someone who is good at high jump is instantly good at sprinting

yeah, i still do not understand why there is no bajo people that become a good competitive swimmer. but then i realize that most swimmer came from middle class.... only them who can afford access swimming pool routinely.

The way she casual sit at bottom of the sea is freaking hilarious 3:25

And then she returned back effortlessly like a fish

Grandma aint bout that talk talk lol

No one can beat momma 😂😂

they already are suffering. many if them are begging in the Philippines because they are one if the first ones to suffer from Islamic insurgency in their territory. they live in South of Mindanao where Al Qaeda connected groups have terrorized since the 90s

Climate change hoax#

Tell them to stop polluting their own countries by dumping garbage into the ocean

"...these adaptable people are the first to suffer from environmental changes affecting their way of life." No. Humans (and every living species ever to exist) are always having to adapt to "environmental changes affecting their way of life". From the very beginning of humanity (and life), humans have been adapting to the changing climate. Indeed, human civilization itself was born BECAUSE of an earlier global warming (with attendant droughts). It's fascinating that the neo-Marxist environmentalist cult is now veritably rejecting Darwinian science of natural selection. ....What the heck do you think "natural selection" means? Living creatures ALWAYS face adapting to environmental change or going extinct. If you deny the very existence of NATURAL climate change, then you are denying evolutionary science. You're just as bonkers as the Creationists. There is no cosmic (or divine) thermostat "out there" keeping the climate "just right". Climate change IS nature. There's no such thing bas an environment which doesn't change. "Fighting climate change" literally means (if we take those words literally) fighting nature.

@@MrJm323 Oh well, you don't agree. A tad long winded and fragmented though.

the stories published by BBC on the Indonesian free divers was proven to be a lie. In reality they almost never free dive and instead use automotive style air compressors (which is extremely dangerous)

Almost all south east asian are Austronesian

​@@southpaw8040proof it if it's really a fact

⁠@@southpaw8040, and in days gone by, before these gadgets were invented, did they free dive or not? Naysayers LOVE naysaying just for the heck of naysaying. There’s a video here showing me individuals free diving and you’re more interested in the negative.

@@YoureverBeloved there is no evidence that they did legitimately free dive. In the dozens of documentaries made about these people where the truth was hidden, they never truly free dived more than 8-10 feet. Not once have these people been recorded actually free diving down to the average 20 meters as others do. The stories about these people were a complete lie, right down to the swimming (not diving) goggles that they used. You were fooled.

their lungs evolve, it's bigger than other human. That's how they can hold their breath for long time

the polynesian branch

They are on the path of speciation. Our descendants might share this world with merfolk in the far future.

it's hard because of the decrease in fish some of them choose to beg for spare changes in cities

Every living thing evolves.

Some people are born with two spleens would they have similar advantages

The brain is a powerful member

He didn't mention these people one time and he stole their story. It's white thievery to me.

Except Avatar was based on Scottish Picts and not these people. Not to me tipn they use air compressors and can't hold their breath

@@southpaw8040 show us your sources, I've seen your exact message 5 times. Are you obsessed with the bajau?

@@joebticao6299 go check out Aquatic Apes. He did an entire series that showed these divers never going deeper than 10-15 feet. The only ones that go deeper use an air compressor. He even discusses how National Geographic faked/staged these divers. Also, the amount of garbage on the beaches is astounding. It's disgusting, just like the oceans in China and India. Go watch it, I DARE YOU

Actually they're, the Philippines coast guards always surrounds the Philippine sea

the modern people had more time to evolve so i bet the ones that live now are the best ever

@@tyrrant1374 Oh my sweet summer child.

@@orwellianyoutube8978 am an autumn child you missed

If we're all genetically equal then why is this tribe different?

It's because it's all staged bro, it isn't real. AquaticApes already proved NatGeo to be complete fakes as the Indonesian ocean is full of garbage and they breath on air compressors, not golding their breath

Badjao originally came from Philippines since 500 AD, but migrating coast to coast that's why they reach Indonesia to malaysia,

@@dondonzelo8757 prove your comment, and googling AMMANA GAPPA, the first maritime rules from Bugis

@@dondonzelo8757 😂 you make lol statment

Damn im from ph and i cant swim

@@obamalastname34 It;s okay, even I am too lazy to take a shower

They do t protect anything. Have you seen the real videos there and not the staged NatGeo ones? It's full of garbage and they use air compressors to breath. All fake.

You're a swimmer not a diver

They are the real merman and mermaid. You just a human who can swim...

😂

lame. I consume 5

mau lestari kalo di maling negara2 laen gimana

@@IIMonkeManII lah negara kita yg paling ga bisa ngurus kok buktinya aja tambang dan infrastruktur lain, klo dimaling untuk kebaikan mereka dan alam ya ga masalah kan disini anehnya

I would wait for that vlog Wil!

Eyy Wil!

you can come to malaysia

Try bongao tawi tawi.

Andami nyan sa Maynila jusme. Langoy kayo sa Manila Bay

Sadly this is true.

Change nationality bro

just talking is very easy

You wouldn’t when your people aren’t recognized as a citizen in all 3 countries and treated as a lower class and live in poverty with little opportunity other than beg and fish this is the biggest problem these people have but Philippines, Malaysia, and Indonesia do not care for them which is sad

@@hallooos7585 Because a lot of bajaus themselves refused to be part of the nation but those who stay and get their legalities done get to have the same benefits of any citizens of the country however, there is something about their culture that prevents them into adapting fully to co-exist with the land people. although more and more younger generations of bajaus craved proper education and better opportunity to live in a city.. while people who grow up in the cities also craved the opposite 😅

@@hallooos7585 They don't want to be, Because they wil lose their culture. Look what the Europeans thinks of their gypsies

Sadly this is true...imagine how big the tribes were before capitalism etc...most have been genocided and displaced. This has happened all over the world so they show these times in our history neglecting to speak on the system that governs them and takes away their freedoms to expand and evolve as we naturally do.

modern economies and states just cannot help but eventually exploit indigenous people. Indigenous people are forced to either adapt or perish

Aren't all Manila Indigenous people?

I mean to be fair, in the cities you would really see a lot of indigenous people begging for money from jeepney to jeepney. So it is not really unreasonable or surprising why people especially in urban places would think of that

@@mrcheeto1006 not all people from manila are indigenous people (if anything, it is rare to find one in the city :(

Oh wow

Where is this interview?? In my city, most of these people are all over the streets busking or even straight up begging with their children and infants towed...

The environment is already destroyed. The BBC documentary is a complete lie and consists of mostly B-roll of images around the major resorts. 99% of the beaches are covered in garbage and the homes are built on dead chunks of coral. Literally. I have been there. the stories published by BBC on the Indonesian free divers was proven to be a lie. In reality they almost never free dive and instead use automotive style air compressors (which is extremely dangerous)

Im not the brughtest but always learned in the bahamas that stabding on coral reefs destroy them.....i mean maybe they are part of their own prob

In the Makassar language, they're called "People from water" (tu ri je'ne').

there is a movie with that kind of premise

Ya keep telling yourself those bullshit fairytales based off nothing you ass. Good day

Ahhhh I'm going to the moon then!!

At the rate the planet is deteriorating we'll all be screwd in 100 years. That's on all of us one way or another.

It's not necessary people are just lazy

Filipinos have the most awful attitude in Soitheast asia

If you're a white guy then you're adapted to snowy landscapes... That's where your hairy body, gigantism, big nose and white skin would shine

My kind of people ATLA♥️

Beautiful comment 👌

Not sure about specific minutes but if actors and actresses from AVATAR could be taught, in one year of intensive training, to hold their breaths between 5 to 7 minutes ---- because the movie is mostly about the water and underwater activities, requiring actors and actresses to hold their breaths for many minutes at a time for scenes --- it is VERY LIKELY that for a tribe who's born to make a living from diving, over many, many generations... many members LIKELY have the MUTATIONS (for spleen and other organs) to allow them to be able to use store/use oxygen way more optimally than even the best breath-holders in a Hollywood movie. BTW, it also is true for HIGH ALTITUDE tribes: from the Himalaya to the Andes in South America, there are TRIBES that have evolved, through many many generations, to have better oxygen use/storage capacity in their system, so even with very thin oxygen level that would make almost all of us feeling very weak or sick... those tribal people with the appropriate mutations... they're just fine, up there in the extremely high altitude living.... Ditto for the Kung people living in the Kalahari Desert in Africa: they're, after TENS of thousands of years of living in such a hot environment, they have evolved ways, at the genetic levels, to cope better than the average human being... And Ditto for Eskimos living in the Far North, where at least 10 out of 12 months of the year, it's extremely cold....

@@kiabtoomlauj6249 "5 to 7 minutes"😆😆..please. Hollywood is notorious for making up lies to sell their films. The most elite athletes on the planet can manage is about 5mins+..only genetically special/rare people can do more than that. Imagine believing a Septuagenarian(70yr old)Sigourney Weaver can hold her breath for 5mins😁

thatd be so cool then theyre evolution wud be in textbooks

Everybody swims, at least 8-9 months in their mother's womb....

@@pihermoso11 lol I think someone told me that once, that anyway you look at it we all swam before we walked... Ppl always trying to convince me it's totally natural for humans to be in the water and I'm always like "water is for fish and land is for humans" lol

Me

Or they could evolve into seals😆

Problem is you will need to wait 2000 to 5000 years or more to see the changes happen over the generations.

They would evolve into a fish-like creatures in like 20 million years, evolution would get rid of everything human as its harmful aquatic environments.

They will evolve into sirens instead

As long they wont evolve into spongebob and patrick

then most of the fish will be extinct . 🤣 .

As scared of water as I am, I'd probably still be terrified lol

Did you see what we done to land? Let just went into space and let the sea alone.

well, have you ever think of going to bikini bottom?

the seas would stink if humans built underwater cities in it. As time goes on where would the poo and pee would go? As long as humans needed money to move the most cost efficient way to dump all that is probably under the seabed which over time would seep out and taint the sees turning it into a disgusting color. Unless there's an animal under there which would eat that humans would turn that into profit and once again move because of money.

what are the other six tribes?

@@summer-7968 I know 2 others are Amazonians and Wakandans.

They original homeland is in sulu philipines, but they spread to indonesia malaysia, afaik moken in thai myanmar border and sea people in malaka strait also related with bajau

They live in Indonesia, Malaysia, and the Philippines

Im Bajau (Samah/same) from Indonesia but I cant understand if philipinos or Malaysian bajau speak 😂

@@Sejam60 provinsi mana di Indonesia?

There are Bajaus that are Filipinos, likewise there also those who live in Malaysia and Indonesia.
