Those "amerindians" are the Pemón tribe They had lived for centuries in these areas. And you need them not only because the know everything about the terrain but because you are NOT allowed into the Canaima Park unless you have a Pemón guide, it's the government's regulation and the tribe's regulations in an effort to preserve the Tepuyes. As they live there they control what happens in the park I've been in the Roraima Tepuy and in the Auyantepuy for a few weeks at the time. The pemones are amazingly skilled people and very kind people.

Can't expect an ignorant foreigner to even bother looking up information on the people owning the land they are visiting and are the only ones that can take them and bring them back. Discovery is the worst evil.

And they have names too! I was watching focus about Everest and they always said Sherpas saved this or that but they don’t say the names. They need to stop believing they are better than actually the owners of the mountains. Without them there is not expedition or this video. I hope they now how stupid they look saying this guy instead his name. I’m pretty sure their ancestors discovered all that species before they believed they did. God have mercy!!

Amazing. Cool that he could get down there and back out at the age of 71.

Just climbed Roraima two weeks ago. The sheer mind blowing experience on top of the Tepui sandwiched between the awful situation of the people exiting Venezuela at the border between Venezuela and Brazil. Nearly 1.5 million Venezuelans have fled the country since 2014 mostly into Colombia and Brazil but more recently into Guyana. Half the population of Venezuela are starving....what my group observed was the tip of an iceberg of a massive largely unreported humanitarian crisis.

That Nat Geo issue, that article! I made it up Roraima in 1998, a couple weeks after a total solar eclipse that skimmed northern Venezuela. The summit of Roraima is as amazing as any video - and accessible by foot. And my trip there was inspired by that one article. Thanks Nat Geo, for having inspired many of my amazing trips around the world!

It's the local that do the hardest part and they get to tell the story of heroism. Vulture culture

For those that say Evolution is a theory, and its NOT, this proves the intricacies of evolution in action over thousands of years between a species based on adaptability and producing in different environments and populations.

This feels like extreme Pokémon hunters

The amazon is like another world.

The one thing or is it a virtue, . . . . that mankind has been endowed with is the will to never stop exploring and or learning about everything that can be explored or learned. If there was a way to explore the outside of our universe someone would do it.

Ever since I learned of the tepuis rock islands as a kid over 50 years ago I have always wanted to visit one and discover something no one had ever seen before. Or find gold and jem stones. But that is what makes them so special .I imagine there is none that has not been explored by now. Pretty amazing a piece of the planet as it was millions of years ago ,that's different then frozen in time like fossils .this is alive.

Does anyone feel like it ruins the magic and mystery of the place if it is studied by humans?

Is this the full video ?

The "Amerindian" people he speaks of are the Pemón people. They have a name, history, and culture that is uniquely their own. To mislabel your guide who made this success possible is incredibly rude. The Pemón people are stewards of that land, and have been since time immemorial. It is clear whose territory you are on when you enter the park, so the presenter has no excuse for misnaming his guides.

This is probably a stupid comment, but wouldn't it have been much easier to descend onto that rock face from above rather than climb up from below? What were you expecting to find at the base of a rain forest cliff that has waterfalls shooting off of it everywhere? Of course it would be wet and decaying vegetation at a dangerously steep angle. You are very lucky to be alive yet. Rappeling from above you would be there in a second. Am I overlooking something?

So wait a minute... I can see rock climbing as a hobby, but as a biologist, pioneer, explorer and etc why are they not just using a helicopter? If the purpose is discovery isn't time invaluable? Just my thoughts...

Poor frogs.

What you think of as mountains and rocks were mostly living things at a distant time point Either from trees/plants and animals, some of them ''giant'' The tree's were cut down that's why many have flat tops... The rivers etc. and precious metal veins that spread out from/through these ''mountains'' etc. are old root systems and parts of old trees.... From silica based trees, the ''wood'' petrifies and/or turns into precious metals etc. , Just like the ''petrified forrest'' of Arizona.. Devils tower is also the remains of a tree.. not ''lava flow'' , sigh.. Maybe check out a video called ''there are no forests on flat earth'' to begin your awakening to these simple truths that are purposefully being kept from people..
