- Despite what you may see on television, the true survival experts of the world are the 300 million indigenous peoples currently living in close connection to their ancestral lands. To learn from them is to learn from the true masters.
The Yolngu Australian Aboriginal people of Mäpuru are living with dignity on their ancestral homelands, and have an unbroken connection to their culture and country- spanning over 60,000 years.
This video shows some highlights of a recent trip where I was able to learn from, and travel with the Yolngu people of Northern Australia thanks to old friends at www.naturephilosophy.com/.
Just a few times every year the community invites small groups onto their country - to share in their lives, their wisdom and learn traditional earth skills. This is for the benefit of their children and all future generations.
To learn more about this Community Development Program check out my good friend's website at

Aboriginals have a connection to this land that nobody outside can understand fully.they are amazing survivalists and environmentalists.they have so much knowledge and history passed down from ancestors through dance and tales..such a rich heritage.
Somehow I've gotten to wild survival and now I can't get out of it I love it 😊
Thanks!
live in new zealand wilderness much safer and beautiful!
These people have the best lives no taxes no wifi it's do what you want
All i want to do is pay taxes on my wifi... is that the same?
Peter Bennett I’m from mel and I love survival I wish I could move there it’s my dream
They look friendly and so smart! This is just so peaceful.
Looks like fun!
Yesss! My home land!
This is some amazing imagery, and should be a fully-funded documentary.
Fascinating, I wish there was more video of indigenous lifeways around - could even be a source of outside income and good PR for otherwise poor and little understood cultures. These guys remind me of videos of thru-hikers I've seen - that sense of cheerfulness and communal effort. Very cool.
what a trip, looks like that kind of experince from where you leave a bit different from whom you were before. in a good way
Beautiful to watch, would love to experience what you just did.
Please keep up the brilliant work
Awesome! I live in australia so thanks for showing some survival food

Would love to see the extended version! I saw Westwind: Djalu's Legacy recently which is another brilliant doco of Yolngu life.
Oh damn, love your work I hope you continue to release videos
Thanks, and yeah, Ill try to keep it coming when I can :)
Thank you for your videos. You are an inspiration. The more I spend working, and emailing, the more I need to disconnect. I find myself watching your videos to relax my soul. I would love to take one of your classes. Please let me know if you are ever in Texas.
Glad you uploaded another video.It's been a while and your content is great
Bro. AWESOME film Bro! I loved the music, fishing, dancing and laughter. AWESOME! LOL!
I love you content keep posting!
What an adventure! I'd like to be there with you! My Girlfriend had the oportunity to be in Australia and i'm jealous! Great thing to do!
You should put a disclaimer at the start of the video saying that this may contain footage of a dead person as in the future a aboriginal may see a elder that has died and can cause grief
Somebody please remind me what benefit(s) modern society has over any of this......

not dying
@@tjkay1153 Yes, of course. None of us in modern society ever die..
... which is of course, a lie.. The question is, do any of us ever LIVE?
@@tjkay1153 I'll rather die when im 50 living the best life than sit 20 years in a cubicle 9-5 every day (these people live well in their 70's)
Modern medical science.

I love my black brothers an sisters all over the globe

God damn I miss NT, specifically Gove :(
Do a survival video in the winter on the pacific coast
I am sending a request to California land management officials to request they go to Mäpuru and have some actual intelligent people teach them about burning and proper stewardship of the land. Great video.
Hey tom if you can make your way to South America, lots of funky places there
Yeah, one day I want to do one of these in the Amazon. I lived out there with the Huaorani for a while and their skills blow me (and everyone else) away!
Ayy likin it in Australia so far mate??
How does one decide and put into action a trip like this?? like how did you find these people? and convince them to live with them to show you how they live??!!!

How many batteries do you take with you on solo survival, and what kind of camera do you use?
Anyone has the name of the tree used for the spear ? as well as some idea of the specs ? length diameter weight ? much appreciated.
The audio could have very well been the ewok celebration from Star Wars:Return of the Jedi
You should do survival in some sort of snow forest but this time showing us how to survive without any kind of knife.
Artic or antartic survival please?
Looks like, the movie WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE, with the actor Jean-Claude Van Damme. But are not, this movie.
how to survive in tropical forests?
Wow....I could eat a rat and perhaps even a bat....but I will never know how you ate a worm....dang...I thought I was tough...ha ha ha
Do a rain Forrest survival
Game Fusion he did that already
There is a heavy slowness to the spirituality culture or Indigenous Australia. Or, its a very long game.
2:37 hes cute
The real life was begin
We want to see you fight a kangaroo. Right, everybody?
were there any women at the camp?
Yes, the woman's trip was what started the whole idea....but generally, in aboriginal culture, the men and women do different things so I wasnt part of seeing all the things the women did. They spent a lot of time gathering and processing amazing basket making material. To check that out go to Nature Philosophies website. Thanks for watching.

3:12 Essential viewing for Gov Moonbeam and other fascist leaders of California. Maybe they might learn something about fire prevention.
Survive in Africa I dare you
I'd be more convinced if they weren't wearing modern clothes
