This sounds like something from an old explorer novel. Indiginous tribesmen shooting at airplanes etc. Nobody from the outside has had contact with them and it is meant to be kept that way. Cool.

No, it's linked off the main BBC News page.

Or it might be Papa Lazarou...

You're my tribe now, Dave.

And the (admittedly untrained) anthropologist in me wants to be the one who contacts them. Sadly, that would be a bad idea for them since even if I left them relatively unspoiled, someone would come behind me and before you know it, they'd have a McDonald's in the middle of their village.

Yeah, this is the real problem with offering even good stuff to them: their imunity to common stuff is nil.

I wonder what would happen if they needed help?

Considering our success rate, the tribe would be wiped out on first contact. ;oP

If we could actually hit them...

Our sheer presence should be enough to accidentally poison their food supply, infect them with modern diseases or cause war with a neighbouring tribe. ;o)

Just a fart should be enough.
