The conversation you had at night was truly amazing. The way he asked you about airplanes and how he thought that there are countries where you can't see the sun.. it made me very emotional, not because it's sad, but how you could speak in a language you both know and could explain him how it actually works. He must have felt so smart after that. These videos in Africa are beautiful! I do hope you guys will make more. Keep on doing this great work, Thomas and the gang.

The Baka or Pygmies mean a lot to Cameroon.

This is what it means to live in a "democratic" dictatorship everyday. On behalf of all Cameroonians i feel honored.

Seek discomfort

As a Cameroonian, I really appreciate when people travel to Cameroon and tell the stories without any biases/presumptions. I am happy for you, that you got to experience this part of Cameroon, as many of us never get this far outside of our comfort zones. But I also really empathise with what you had to go through at the end of this experience and I hope it does not discourage any other plans you guys had for travelling around this beautiful continent. A well is a very common source of drinking water. At my parent's house, we actually dug one and sent out to the community where people could get free drinking water. So I will be happy to contribute to a cause that can provide one for this community. The Yes Theory team continues to inspire me to think different and be more open and this video did just that. As I travel and make videos my self, I try to keep this in mind. Thank you for what you do - and please keep doing what you do. It reaches more people than you can imagine 😇

We also brought gifts of food, medicine and things like soccer balls. We didn't speak the same language though. We had a translator with us that spoke Indonesian and English.

I appreciate how we got to witness Thomas’ raw emotions. He seemed so overwhelmed with new information that he seemed very subdued as if processing/absorbing everything. Right in front on our eyes. Very interesting

This reminds me of going back to my village and teaching my cousins all about the outside world

I've been to 57 countries in the last 8 years. World traveling is very rewarding and brings such enlightenment. Can I come with you on your next excursion?

I have yet to see an episode where I am not touched, moved and feeling grateful you all work so diligently to bring knowledge and recognition. All of this while remaining humble. Thank you for all you do and all the lives you've touched.

For years i've always been concerned about the decline of these native cultures due to influence from the wider world, but after seeing your conversation at night with that young man I can't help but wonder if it's a good thing at all to stifle the curiosity of such young people. It's an interesting thing to consider, and has definitely helped reshape the way I considered remote cultures around the world.

I'm taking a class on educational communication and in it we had to study the ethics of having people 'leave their tribe'. It focused on how any education can radically shift someone's perspective irreversibly from that which they were raised, even say a liberal arts education. I argued that it is unethical to withhold education but we can't control how someone may interpret things and what they choose to do with their new outlook. I feel that education tears down prejudices and stereotypes so that we can be more empathetic to those outside of our tribe because we are given the gift of critical thinking.

My heart started racing at the end there too. I can't imagine all that stress and anxiety that built up from the situation

I love how amazing all people are.. This tribe is wonderful, you could see a bit of innocence among them and it is like Pure Love

That's a shame about how the trip ended. He looked very nervous and uncomfortable the whole time, I guess things have changed over there. I visited the Baka in a different part of Cameroon many years ago. The group lived deep in the forest and we built huts together, cooked together, did each other's hair, wove belts, goofed around, and laughed around the fire each night. The forest was thick, lush and dark. There was no tension or discomfort. I guess things have changed now. The huts were a little different style and all the people dressed traditionally, there were no western clothes.

Now i have so much respect for you fir visiting Africa and telling the world how beautiful African people are and hospitable as well As a kid I lived in the edge of am african forest and I remember my dad would always leave excess food just incase for strangers that travel at night so they always get something to eat..people would shout in the middle of the night once they are out of the forest so villagers nearby would come meet them and take them home..we didn't know them..but we helped them and treated them so well ...😊

The night talk makes me cry... For so long we have forgotten that, regardless of race, language, culture, we are all brothers and sisters. Nature separated us thousands years ago, that's why we now look, sound, think different, but whoa.. what stays the same, is the subtle affection for each other, the curiosity, the kids laughing, the music, the need for community.. these are in the core of our human soul.. Thank you for making this video, it is truly beautiful.

Unfortunately my country is very weird they’ll always find reasons to bring up an issue and the try to fine you for it. That’s just how Cameroon is . Even we the citizens go through this a lot. Reason why I moved away from that country 😢

Man, where the young boy sees a plane for the first time and said aren’t 200 people to heavy I really cried. It really showed me how “far away” they really are from our standards. It showed me how much I take those things for granted (knowledge of, for me such simple things). It really struck me hard. And then I looked in his face and got so angry and sad that this boy will never has the same chances or opportunities as I have them.

What beautiful people, I could feel their warmth and hospitality. This is the kind of video I sub for, thank you for bringing us these insights.

Such a nice way to live, to be so close with everyone around you, and not work a corporate job with all the day to day rush and hurry we seem to have in our lives, but instead to spend time with each other and dance and just take care of your community. It’s so underrated and beautiful truly. This was great!!

I stumbled upon your channel last week and was so elated it was the first video on your travel to Africa series. I was saying to myself should I recommend Cameroon as your next destination to Africa, not knowing your next video would be about the incredible Baka people of the East region of Cameroon. As a Cameroonian, I must must thank you for showing Cameroon to the people who might not have heard much or even know about us.

When the man bringing him to the village said that Thomas was there to see them and tell them that he knows they are there - it was such a simple but powerful statement.

seeing the conversation with that man outside his hut is amazing. Not knowing the sun is in every country or how planes carry people. His innocence and curiosity. Just wow.

I have such a respect for you guys. The fact that Thomas knew the root language before he went to an isolated tribe is such a smart move. Imagine just popping into a village unwanted or uninvited and not even being able to communicate with the people in a language that they know. But he took the time to learn their country’s language..probably took the time to know and ask the people about the tribe. The local people that he had take him there most likely gained a respect for him because he was genuinely interested in knowing and learning about their culture. He befriended them by not endorsing his own culture but living presently in theirs.

This was such a touching video you did Thomas. Leaving yourself so vulnerable is extremely admirable. The interactions you were able to have were amazing, genuine and eye opening, and made me emotional (“we won’t forget about you”). It’s awful it ended in such a manner…while experiencing another culture and way of life, and upon returning “back” meant fearing for safety. I’m excited to learn more from this African series, it’s been great so far! thank you for showing us a small bit of the Baka people and sharing their story.

When the kids seen the drone that "Woaaaah" was priceless.... and talking about the airplane was the best part......it sucks it had to End so fast the people there seemed so nice!

The conversation about the airplane for some reason has me almost in tears. The genuine curiosity, the sweetness of the kindness between Thomas and the Tribe member, the fact he waited there until everyone else was gone to ask questions about the world… that moment I’m sure was on Gods highlight reel of humanity. I was having a bad day until I saw that moment.

Have you been able to check on the Baka? Did they encounter problems from local authorities from your visit? Hopefully not, and hopefully connections will be made from this experience that will create benefit for them in the future.

I'm glad you and your crew were able to leave safely, that was so close. Thanks for introducing us to another great adventure...it was very touching!!!!

I couldn't help grinning all through this video. Proud to be an African. Job well yes theory. Blessings to y'all. Love from Nigeria!

Well done on bringing food and supplies for them. Some others channels utisilse the footage and leave, which I find tasteless and completely missing the point of sharing life with others, and others less well of than we are. Thank you.

Another eye opening, epic adventure. It’s a shame you had to leave the country so quickly but glad you lived to tell the tale! Thank you for sharing this with us.

Whenever you go to a tribe or someones village you give them a gift, I love seeing that you brought them a gift for letting you stay there 😁 the hospitality of everyone was amazing and the vibes seemed very chill and nice. They even made a cool hut for you! This is amazing, proves that humanity still has kindness in its heart. Edit: I've been bit by fire ants and those aren't fun 😂 I was 8 when it happened and the knots on my foot were so bad I couldn't wear shoes or go to school for 3 days

This is amazing! The tribe was so happy to have him. I only wish he would have been able to stay longer with them.

I actually also had the same experience this year and spent the night in the Cameroonian jungle. It was very overwhelming, since I had never been outside of Europe. Very exciting that you now also experience this.

The conversation with the guy with the lightning and storm in the background was such a stunning and heartwarming moment ❤

this video made me smile the whole time.. Those people in the village or so kind and humble it’s amazing… compared to big cities in america and all the gang violence and drugs, it’s so peaceful in that village i love it🙏🏼

I love the positivity emanating from Yes Theory's videos. Its amazing to see how welcoming a community such as this can be. Hard to wrap my mind around how oppressive the government there is. A foreigner wants to meet people in a village in the jungle, and they think he's a spy? Spying on what? What threat could he possibly pose? I cant even imagine how freaked out he was. The fact he could only record a little bit of that situation and what was going on kinda makes me think that he was seriously stressed out and needed to stay focused.

@ChrisAniart

Жыл бұрын

yeaah, when it comes to the government in africa, it's more likely that they knew he wasn't a spy and just saw an opportunity for a cash grab. Officers in africa, specially in Nigeria and Cameroon from my personal experience often simply try to wrangle as much money out of people as possible. It's very very likely that they wanted to arrest him for being a "spy" and then have him pay a large fee to get out. they're no better than con-artists, scammers. Again, speaking from experience.
