1 00:00:00,920 --> 00:00:05,040 Speaker 1: This is the me Eater Podcast coming at you shirtless, 2 00:00:05,080 --> 00:00:08,119 Speaker 1: severely bug bitten, and in my case, underwearless because I'm 3 00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:14,880 Speaker 1: wearing my swim trunks from the jungles of Bolivia. And 4 00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:18,919 Speaker 1: we've been out in the jungle jungle for how long? 5 00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:24,799 Speaker 1: Eight days? Eight days? And we're back now, stranded in 6 00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:29,320 Speaker 1: a Catholic mission out in the jungle because the plane 7 00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:32,280 Speaker 1: couldn't fly. We're a couple hundred miles due north of 8 00:00:32,520 --> 00:00:35,920 Speaker 1: Santa Cruz, Bolivia. Um on the flight out here, you 9 00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:42,040 Speaker 1: just pass like a hundred miles of uninterrupted jungle. Yeah, 10 00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:44,400 Speaker 1: probably a lot of like slash and burned eggs, so 11 00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:49,600 Speaker 1: much soul that the skies, you know, the low VI's 12 00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:52,080 Speaker 1: ability due to smoke. But then you eventually get out 13 00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:55,560 Speaker 1: of that just flower jungle and you laying here. There's 14 00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:59,840 Speaker 1: no road system here because there's an airstrip and it's 15 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:05,960 Speaker 1: just a native community. The tribe is called Chimana chaman 16 00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:09,040 Speaker 1: a territory. And we've been up a river with a 17 00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:11,240 Speaker 1: bunch of Chimani guys hunting fishing. We've been up there 18 00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:14,840 Speaker 1: just getting some good stuff. Some bad stuff happened to us. 19 00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:18,720 Speaker 1: Now we're back here, stranded it's hot. No one's wearing 20 00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:21,560 Speaker 1: her clothes except Dorty, who's got his um one of 21 00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:24,440 Speaker 1: his dirty buys those t shirts of you ever been 22 00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:27,080 Speaker 1: like gas stations in Montana or places where they sell 23 00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:31,280 Speaker 1: those airbr or to be like a full moon and 24 00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:35,280 Speaker 1: like some wolves heads, or like well, this is what's 25 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:38,120 Speaker 1: this question? This is a this is a winged Native 26 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 1: American on top of a winged horse. And it used 27 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:45,200 Speaker 1: to say, Idaho, No, the horse isn't winged. It's not 28 00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:51,400 Speaker 1: oh no, but it's it's cloudy, and there's a horse 29 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:55,600 Speaker 1: sort of racing. Then eagle with a winged um planes warrior. 30 00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:58,760 Speaker 1: This used to say, Ida, hope, I once buried, accidentally 31 00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:01,360 Speaker 1: buried this shirt in the on a beach on Lake Ponder. 32 00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:03,560 Speaker 1: You know, I'd hope for three months. I lost it 33 00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,200 Speaker 1: one night swimming and then came back three months later 34 00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:10,280 Speaker 1: and found it buried in the sec Did you go 35 00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:12,640 Speaker 1: digging quarter or no? No, that trip that you found it. 36 00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 1: So we have a ton of ground to cover. We 37 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:20,400 Speaker 1: gotta talk about getting bit by bullet ants. We gotta 38 00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:26,600 Speaker 1: talk about eating monkey meat, um the giant catfish called 39 00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:35,160 Speaker 1: the maturo. We gotta talk about eating unfathomable quantities of 40 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:41,959 Speaker 1: dried salted meat, rotten sometimes sometimes rotten another. At first, 41 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 1: I want to say, who's here? Philbert Bearaboo out of 42 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:54,320 Speaker 1: bows here? Friends call him Phil and he's a what 43 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 1: do you what do you like to go by? Cinematographer? 44 00:02:57,040 --> 00:03:00,480 Speaker 1: Philbert's a cinematographer. Um is it Phil? Look for real 45 00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:04,359 Speaker 1: or just Phil? Philip real? Philip there is a cinematographer 46 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:06,079 Speaker 1: based out of Bosa, Montana. This is the first time 47 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:08,720 Speaker 1: he ever came out with us. This whole reason we're here, 48 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:11,760 Speaker 1: like why we're here is we were doing a mediator 49 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:19,040 Speaker 1: episode and then Jannes would tell us, um, who is 50 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:23,400 Speaker 1: no longer long tong Yanni. He's now Yanni Chimani based 51 00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 1: on his ability to excel at jungle craft here in 52 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:32,240 Speaker 1: Chamani territory particularly, he started out very strong shooting native bows. 53 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:37,840 Speaker 1: These guys Chimani make their bows. Let's introduced everybody, and 54 00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:49,840 Speaker 1: then just get into it. Geez is here. That concludes 55 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 1: And of course Dan Dougherty's here. You need a producer, 56 00:03:54,880 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 1: director man all things and um and these those how 57 00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 1: do I even start with talking about Chani Indians amer Indians. 58 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:09,880 Speaker 1: It's like a term like you don't like a Canadian'd 59 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:13,800 Speaker 1: say First Nations people. Right in Alaska, you say Native Alaska. 60 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 1: In the US, we say Indian Native American. Sort of 61 00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:23,080 Speaker 1: the proper term down here is amer Indian. Is that 62 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:26,600 Speaker 1: it actually proper though? I think so? Hear you say 63 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:32,040 Speaker 1: that amer Indian? Yeah? Really, yeah, I haven't heard that often. 64 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:35,600 Speaker 1: What do you what do you hear? Indigenous indigenous? But 65 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:39,680 Speaker 1: I think amer Indian is an indigenous South American. I 66 00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:43,320 Speaker 1: could be totally wrong. Maybe indigenous South Americans. The name 67 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:47,280 Speaker 1: is Chermanic. Now my understanding is that they came up, 68 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:52,160 Speaker 1: like there was another people here some time ago, some 69 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:55,160 Speaker 1: hundreds of years ago, and the Chermany came up these 70 00:04:55,240 --> 00:05:01,920 Speaker 1: rivers and like through warfare, eyes soon colonize these river 71 00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 1: systems here, and whoever they pushed ahead of them, they 72 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:09,839 Speaker 1: pushed out. And there's legend that there's still like there's 73 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:11,600 Speaker 1: probably this legend a lot of places. But some of 74 00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 1: these guys talk about legend or warnings that up some 75 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:17,600 Speaker 1: of these rivers, the headwaters of some of these rivers 76 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:21,120 Speaker 1: in this area, they're still uncontacted. People's called the ancient ones. 77 00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:23,279 Speaker 1: That they call the ancient ones would be that the 78 00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:29,360 Speaker 1: Chimani pushed them out. The Chimani lived by uh small 79 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:32,840 Speaker 1: garden plots, so they live in hole was built entirely 80 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 1: of native materials, so like a bamboo type framework thatched roofs. 81 00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:46,640 Speaker 1: They have garden plots where they grow plantain, pineapple, yucca, 82 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:56,520 Speaker 1: yucca fruit, lemons, limes, papa guabo, a plant called barbasque 83 00:05:56,560 --> 00:06:01,920 Speaker 1: barbasco which they used the poison fish um and they 84 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:06,680 Speaker 1: draw their protein largely from the river Um. They have 85 00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 1: some modern forms of fishing where they have access to nets, 86 00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:16,960 Speaker 1: they have access to monel filament and hand lines. But 87 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 1: they kill a lot of fish by using bows and arrows, 88 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:23,960 Speaker 1: and they kill a lot of fish um using something 89 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:25,680 Speaker 1: we'll talk about a minute called this like that they 90 00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:29,040 Speaker 1: poison fish the stuff called barbasco. But anyway, he's like 91 00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:32,359 Speaker 1: on the surface level what we were doing, because we're 92 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 1: coming on here with these guys who are establishing a business, 93 00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:41,560 Speaker 1: trying to establish a business, have established business taking people 94 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:44,599 Speaker 1: up the targets called dorato and like a dorado's this big, 95 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:49,839 Speaker 1: I mean it's in the same broader grouping as prime 96 00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 1: as where it has these really pronounced teeth and a 97 00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:55,440 Speaker 1: strong job out front it's a very robust fish that 98 00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:59,840 Speaker 1: will take a fly right. They're aggressive, pasciferous fish and 99 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:03,039 Speaker 1: a bitch slap a fly. So it's kind of like 100 00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:05,840 Speaker 1: the new It's like sort of like the new frontier 101 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:07,920 Speaker 1: of fly fishing is to come out, come down to 102 00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:10,240 Speaker 1: the jungles in South American. Try to catch a drittle 103 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:12,960 Speaker 1: drawing means gold you all see him called golden drafto. 104 00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:17,000 Speaker 1: These big golden fish. They almost gonta resemble salmon structurally, 105 00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:20,960 Speaker 1: you know, thick. I mean, these fish got shoulders on, 106 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 1: very powerful fish. Um Chimani like to eat them. But 107 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:30,520 Speaker 1: these guys are trying to establish catching release thing where 108 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 1: dudes like Westerners will come out to try to catch one. Frankly, 109 00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:36,240 Speaker 1: going into it, I couldn't really, I mean I've caught 110 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:39,679 Speaker 1: the things before in Argentina. I couldn't really. I wasn't 111 00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 1: that excited about the prospect that coming out and catching them. 112 00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:45,480 Speaker 1: But what intrigued me was just the river travel where 113 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:49,679 Speaker 1: you're going up into areas that these guys are pushing 114 00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 1: up into areas up this river here that we're on 115 00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 1: where like the chimana haven't even been you know, they 116 00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 1: go way up to the headwaters this river. So it's 117 00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:01,280 Speaker 1: a really interesting journey. And also there, I think they 118 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:03,720 Speaker 1: treat me a lot. Was hanging out with the natives 119 00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:06,040 Speaker 1: because they bring all their stuff to you know, the 120 00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:07,520 Speaker 1: hunting fish, and so we did a lot of that, 121 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 1: and um, the fishing frankly was sucking. Yeah, this was 122 00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:13,440 Speaker 1: a fishing guy for a long time. What would you 123 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 1: say about the fishing, Joanny? It was like fishing conditions 124 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:22,320 Speaker 1: were terrible conditions we saw as far as like turbidity levels. 125 00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:24,480 Speaker 1: I don't know exactly how they measure them, but I 126 00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:28,080 Speaker 1: think it's they like lowered like a white plate on 127 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:29,960 Speaker 1: a rope, you know, down into the water and then 128 00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:31,920 Speaker 1: at what point you can you know, still see the 129 00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:35,600 Speaker 1: white play And I say the best that we saw, yeah, 130 00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:40,280 Speaker 1: to test surbidity. And the best that we saw, I'd 131 00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:42,360 Speaker 1: say if it was like an eight inch white plate 132 00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:46,040 Speaker 1: was maybe a foot and that might be generous. You know, 133 00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:49,560 Speaker 1: they test tenderness on me. I just think all the 134 00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:54,200 Speaker 1: Warner Bruntler Sheer Forest tests. We'll say that for another podcast. Um, 135 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:57,840 Speaker 1: it rained like holy hell. So anyways, Yeah, it's to 136 00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:01,720 Speaker 1: bring it into everyone's turn as a fishing guide. If 137 00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:05,439 Speaker 1: I would have come and seen conditions like this, you 138 00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:10,040 Speaker 1: would most likely just turn around and take folks back 139 00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:12,760 Speaker 1: to their hotel or whatever. But here we can offer 140 00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:16,160 Speaker 1: a discount the future. No, no, it's not just cancel 141 00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:18,920 Speaker 1: the trip and just just take it. Yeah, because no, 142 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:21,600 Speaker 1: you know that fishing is gonna be very very especially 143 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:24,120 Speaker 1: fly fishing. You know where the fish really need to 144 00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:26,400 Speaker 1: be able to see a fly. But in our case, 145 00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:29,200 Speaker 1: it took us four days, five days to just get 146 00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:31,360 Speaker 1: to our location. So it's not like you can just 147 00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:34,200 Speaker 1: turn around at that point with promises of a lot 148 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:37,920 Speaker 1: of not only clear, but like crystal clear and blue turquoise, 149 00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:41,440 Speaker 1: vodica colored. But when this river is clean, it's it's 150 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:45,440 Speaker 1: we saw pictures and videos of it, just like Paradise. Yeah, 151 00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:47,360 Speaker 1: I saw a picture. Feels amazing. And when the thing 152 00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:48,920 Speaker 1: is down here, you're trying to coincide when you come 153 00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:50,640 Speaker 1: down the fish, you're trying to come the dry season, 154 00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:53,800 Speaker 1: because when you know it's underneath all the vegetation, the 155 00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:56,000 Speaker 1: jungle and on the beach is just this red mud, 156 00:09:56,640 --> 00:10:01,800 Speaker 1: kind of nasty mud, clay clay, right, so when it rains, 157 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:08,560 Speaker 1: the river just turns red, reddish brown rust. It turns 158 00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 1: rust color and you can't see ship right. So in 159 00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:17,480 Speaker 1: the moment we witnessed numerous landslides that big ones, big 160 00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 1: ones big enough to kill people, are definitely big enough 161 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:22,439 Speaker 1: to bury you car sized rocks. That one was the 162 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:26,360 Speaker 1: car size for sure, certainly enough mud and one like 163 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:30,440 Speaker 1: one big splooge that it would could you know, muddy 164 00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:34,760 Speaker 1: out a river of you knowfs, no problem, and you 165 00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:37,200 Speaker 1: to do this trip properly. You want to come down 166 00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:39,200 Speaker 1: during the dry season. And we thought I was on 167 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:41,080 Speaker 1: the impression of dry season. And we got down here 168 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:42,760 Speaker 1: and it was kind of all, this are the tail 169 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:46,680 Speaker 1: end of the dry season, and it rained all the 170 00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:48,959 Speaker 1: time and mud everything. But we're getting out of ourselves. 171 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:51,040 Speaker 1: So to get to this place, what you do? You? 172 00:10:52,320 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 1: I went Seattle to Houston, Houston, Lehman Prue, Leman Prue 173 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 1: to Santa Cruz, Bolivia overnight and in the hotel. Then 174 00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:08,720 Speaker 1: we got on some Cessina's like charter assessments were those 175 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:13,800 Speaker 1: like Forest No. Six six Sessinas and flew out to 176 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:16,640 Speaker 1: a very rough you know air strip kind of hacked 177 00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:18,959 Speaker 1: into the jungle a couple hundred miles away, so a 178 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:20,959 Speaker 1: two hour or two and a half hour direct like 179 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:25,839 Speaker 1: flying you landed a little aira strip from here, we 180 00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:29,400 Speaker 1: got into a bunch of dugout canoes. These boats are 181 00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:34,360 Speaker 1: sweet because they the most of local guys and they're 182 00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 1: building one just for personal use, like family use. They 183 00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:40,280 Speaker 1: just used a treat, so their whole rat, their whole 184 00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:42,360 Speaker 1: boat is just huge from a treat like a dugout. 185 00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:46,960 Speaker 1: Very very long boats. Yeah, very narrow, very long boats. 186 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:48,160 Speaker 1: So it's like you got to be have a lot 187 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:50,760 Speaker 1: of you know, control and discipline to riding these boatsed 188 00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:53,160 Speaker 1: up flipping them. We're these bigger ones. If you think 189 00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:54,679 Speaker 1: they're made that, I got a question for you. Think 190 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:58,280 Speaker 1: they're made that way for efficiency for traveling up and 191 00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 1: down the river. So you can think it's bost boat, 192 00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:02,160 Speaker 1: the most boat you can get out of the tree man. Yeah, 193 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:04,800 Speaker 1: I would say it's a practical thing. So if the 194 00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:09,680 Speaker 1: tree was bigger, they would have a um like a 195 00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:12,440 Speaker 1: greater ballast. Maybe, I don't know. They answered that. That's 196 00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:17,079 Speaker 1: a good question. These boats are like you see some 197 00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:19,920 Speaker 1: on the water. I'm not exaggerated, say they're twenty inches wide. 198 00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:23,840 Speaker 1: You see six seven people big. I mean look imagine 199 00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:25,920 Speaker 1: like a big long, skinny tree hould out. But the 200 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:28,560 Speaker 1: ones we were in. We climbed into four boats that 201 00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:32,839 Speaker 1: the base like the whole was one tree with the 202 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:35,640 Speaker 1: nig from a from the same country. They cut planks 203 00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:38,199 Speaker 1: and make the boat taller. What you're thinking our boats 204 00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:40,599 Speaker 1: are twenty what some of the ones you see on 205 00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:43,680 Speaker 1: the water. No, our boats are wide enough to set 206 00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:46,640 Speaker 1: up like a lawn chair in it. Put a ton 207 00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:50,120 Speaker 1: of weight. So we're running how many guys in the boat? 208 00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:54,080 Speaker 1: You know that many dudes plus very small amount of 209 00:12:54,080 --> 00:13:00,560 Speaker 1: gear um and they're pushed by these eric cooled engines 210 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:03,640 Speaker 1: that resemble a go devil or a mud buddy. But 211 00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:05,720 Speaker 1: they're made in Thailand. It's a it's like an air 212 00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:09,240 Speaker 1: cooled engine amount on. It's like a Honda motor with 213 00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:13,439 Speaker 1: a very a company in Thailand with a very unfortunate 214 00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:18,000 Speaker 1: name of KKK who builds the shaft in prop and 215 00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:21,600 Speaker 1: so it's like this Thailand company KKK puts this what's 216 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:23,680 Speaker 1: got like a six ft shaft a very very small 217 00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:26,360 Speaker 1: propel around it. The used to run the rivers. The 218 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:28,480 Speaker 1: maneuver ability of these boats is so pissed poor. You 219 00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:30,760 Speaker 1: gotta have a dude up front the push pole because 220 00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:33,000 Speaker 1: you're not going to steer to some bit. So you 221 00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:36,240 Speaker 1: got a guy in the back with this long long boat, 222 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:41,840 Speaker 1: I mean like well over twenty long both and a 223 00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 1: six ft shaft on the back with a teeny little prop, 224 00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:48,880 Speaker 1: and and one or two dudes up front push pole 225 00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:51,360 Speaker 1: and the guy in back to help push pole to 226 00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:53,480 Speaker 1: run these rivers. And so we've all pile into this 227 00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:56,880 Speaker 1: stuff and travel up river. And along the way you 228 00:13:56,960 --> 00:14:02,560 Speaker 1: pass these communities. And these communities are all Chamane, and 229 00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:07,840 Speaker 1: they might have The biggest one was Coucci Sum. It's 230 00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:10,240 Speaker 1: called Cucci Sound. It's like a hundred and some people 231 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:12,600 Speaker 1: living in it, not right in the right, not right 232 00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:14,760 Speaker 1: in the village, but in the larger Couci Sum area. 233 00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:16,840 Speaker 1: I think it was like fifteen families, a hundred fifty 234 00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:18,880 Speaker 1: people or something like that. Yeah. Basically, like if you 235 00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 1: go up rivers, so maybe if you go up river 236 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 1: ten miles as the crow flies, which is twenty five 237 00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:26,280 Speaker 1: river miles, you go up and pass these small little villages, 238 00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:29,560 Speaker 1: these native villages, and they get more sort of not 239 00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:32,560 Speaker 1: they seem to get a little more non Western, non 240 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:35,240 Speaker 1: Western iss are like fewer Western influences as you go 241 00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:37,360 Speaker 1: up river, and the last one you come to is 242 00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:40,280 Speaker 1: that this they're all muslimer at tributaries. The last one. 243 00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:43,960 Speaker 1: There's this tributary called Channing, and there's a town there, Pachenning, 244 00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:46,280 Speaker 1: and it seems to kind of be like a family. 245 00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:51,000 Speaker 1: It is, it's one. It's one family and Pochenna run 246 00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:54,000 Speaker 1: by a man who likes to pull a cord um, 247 00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:58,000 Speaker 1: very intoxicated man, as we found. And then once you 248 00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:01,400 Speaker 1: pass the Channing there's nothing up ver. You go up 249 00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:03,280 Speaker 1: in it and it just gets wilder and you get 250 00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:04,800 Speaker 1: into the mountains. So you start out and you're in 251 00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:06,760 Speaker 1: flat ground and you start climb up in the mountains. 252 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:08,720 Speaker 1: The first day we went up, so we went up 253 00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:12,240 Speaker 1: in camp. You're pushing up river, got up troubled all 254 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:20,600 Speaker 1: day again camped realized that the chimane dudes or someone 255 00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:23,160 Speaker 1: the blame fell on them. But I think it's more complicated. 256 00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:26,360 Speaker 1: It's like, definitely more complicated. That someone forgot something back 257 00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:30,520 Speaker 1: in town, the fishing balls. Someone forgot some fishing routs, 258 00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:32,640 Speaker 1: not all of some of the fishing rods back in town. 259 00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:34,720 Speaker 1: And when I say town, I mean the mission we 260 00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:38,040 Speaker 1: started we flew into and I forgot my my little 261 00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:40,400 Speaker 1: fan too. That was the real reason, don't he forgot 262 00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:42,480 Speaker 1: his fans, So we had to stop for a day 263 00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:45,800 Speaker 1: and send some shining guys down. So but there's how many. 264 00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:50,760 Speaker 1: There's four of us too, you know, like western educated 265 00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:54,320 Speaker 1: Oblivion's one lives in the US who run this organization, 266 00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:59,400 Speaker 1: and then a grand total. We started out with Himani 267 00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:02,280 Speaker 1: isn't picked up two more. Tremonti is in another village. 268 00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:05,640 Speaker 1: So horride, we were like the old days. We were 269 00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:09,040 Speaker 1: like back to the nineteenth century expedition. Like we're like 270 00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:12,560 Speaker 1: when Roosevelt went to Africa to hunt and they had 271 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:15,720 Speaker 1: a hundred and some porters carrying the stuff to hunt. 272 00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:18,840 Speaker 1: It was like that. It fell off a lot oftentimes 273 00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:21,480 Speaker 1: like a school field trip. Like when everybody got moving 274 00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:24,280 Speaker 1: and going, i mean walking down those trails, there were 275 00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:26,480 Speaker 1: a lot of heads to count. It felt to me 276 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:33,160 Speaker 1: like a like a like nineteenth century exploration element, like 277 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:36,200 Speaker 1: someone like hand them lemonades the whole time his native 278 00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:40,800 Speaker 1: dudes carry everything around. There's a lot of people, there's 279 00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:42,480 Speaker 1: a lot of way. It was just it was by 280 00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:44,840 Speaker 1: far the biggest expedition that we've ever I mean we've 281 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:48,120 Speaker 1: done some large expeditions, but not I'm part of this 282 00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:54,440 Speaker 1: a question of efficiency. It wasn't especially efficient. The only 283 00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:59,240 Speaker 1: time having that many dudes came in handy was packing 284 00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:02,920 Speaker 1: up camp, like you can't packed up pretty quick. But 285 00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:04,879 Speaker 1: then is like a lot of people have nothing to do, 286 00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:07,280 Speaker 1: but they're all having a good time because they're getting 287 00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:09,720 Speaker 1: paid and they're getting to go somewhere cool, and it's 288 00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:11,840 Speaker 1: better hunting fishing than it is at home, or certainly 289 00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:13,560 Speaker 1: has the potential to be a lot better hunting and fishing. 290 00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:15,679 Speaker 1: It doesn't home. And then these guys might grow up 291 00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:17,439 Speaker 1: and live their whole lives on the river but have 292 00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:19,200 Speaker 1: never gone up the river as far as we went. 293 00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:21,560 Speaker 1: I'm kind of glad there's that man, though, because just 294 00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:23,400 Speaker 1: in it's just in the sense of meeting that many 295 00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:25,960 Speaker 1: different guys, because that was it was handy to have 296 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:28,800 Speaker 1: them around when we're drinking at night and like just 297 00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:31,120 Speaker 1: getting at home. But I was on I was made 298 00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:37,240 Speaker 1: uncomfortable by it at first, because it's it's like when 299 00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:42,960 Speaker 1: you envisioned like impoverished people from other countries thinking about Americans, right, 300 00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:47,560 Speaker 1: you're sort of almost coming down like living like probably 301 00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:52,880 Speaker 1: the worst suspicions, like dudes who stand around watching you 302 00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:55,720 Speaker 1: carry their stuff around for them, and it just made 303 00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:58,480 Speaker 1: me a little bit uncomfortable because like you want to 304 00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:01,080 Speaker 1: be self sufficient and have some and be like, yeah, 305 00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:04,320 Speaker 1: you know, we're from America, world's most powerful country, richest country, 306 00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:08,320 Speaker 1: carrying my stuff, you know, just so this is awkward 307 00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:09,800 Speaker 1: for me. But at the same time, how can you 308 00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:11,880 Speaker 1: fall to do it for wanting to make some money? Man? 309 00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:14,600 Speaker 1: And in the end, in the end of all this resolved, 310 00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:16,919 Speaker 1: and then all this is great, and we made some 311 00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:20,120 Speaker 1: good friends despite a humongous language barrier because the chermany 312 00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:21,720 Speaker 1: some of them speak a little bit of Spanish, but 313 00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:25,679 Speaker 1: the Chianti speak Chimani. The guys were with who organized 314 00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:31,639 Speaker 1: semi organized the expedition, Um, they speak Spanish, and so 315 00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:34,919 Speaker 1: you're getting for us English speakers. Don't he speak Spanish 316 00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:38,719 Speaker 1: a bit? We're getting everything sort of third story. So anyways, 317 00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:43,000 Speaker 1: we started the river. We spend the afternoon traveling camp 318 00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:46,159 Speaker 1: on the river bank. Okay, just tent camp on the 319 00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:50,280 Speaker 1: river bank. Wake up, spend the whole day traveling up river, 320 00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:55,680 Speaker 1: tent camp on the river bank. Realize that something was forgotten. 321 00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:59,159 Speaker 1: So these guys get scolded in a way that I 322 00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:02,320 Speaker 1: felt was in a prop you and some of them 323 00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:07,000 Speaker 1: are sent back down river to retrieve these rods. We 324 00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:09,280 Speaker 1: then spend twenty four hours waiting for them to run 325 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:14,159 Speaker 1: all night and all day to come back up to 326 00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:19,359 Speaker 1: that point. There a rainstorm that night, thunderstorm, big storm. Yeah. 327 00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:22,119 Speaker 1: What was cool about about their run that that was 328 00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:25,040 Speaker 1: interesting is like the next day we're in camp or 329 00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:26,960 Speaker 1: they showed up. At some point We're like, man, where 330 00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:30,240 Speaker 1: did all these big sabolo come from? And as those 331 00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:32,800 Speaker 1: boys are running all night long, they had these fish 332 00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:35,240 Speaker 1: the salvo oak, which we should talk about, but just 333 00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:38,560 Speaker 1: jumping in the boat. Yeah, there's just herbivorous fish are 334 00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:40,880 Speaker 1: called sabolo, and it's sort of the base of the river. 335 00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:44,200 Speaker 1: So it's like the fish that everybody eats isablo. All 336 00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:46,600 Speaker 1: the big fish eat sabo and the natives eat a 337 00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:50,320 Speaker 1: slow and they're everywhere. Man, it was funny because we're 338 00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:52,040 Speaker 1: going up in Janice was trying to think. He's like, 339 00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:54,760 Speaker 1: I think I've seen these fish before where some dude 340 00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:56,480 Speaker 1: goes out at night and shines a light the fish. 341 00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:59,359 Speaker 1: I'll start jumping out of the water when these guys 342 00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:01,080 Speaker 1: get backed from going down and get the rise. We 343 00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:03,040 Speaker 1: spent the whole day digging around camp and they go 344 00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:04,399 Speaker 1: back to get the rods. They come back and they 345 00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:06,159 Speaker 1: got a mountain a sa blow and I'm like, what 346 00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:08,080 Speaker 1: the hell are they doing? How are they catching them all? 347 00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:10,680 Speaker 1: And just apparently all the sablow jumped in their boat 348 00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:12,880 Speaker 1: while they're running down river at night in a big 349 00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:16,160 Speaker 1: soa blow and they go to like three pounds four pounds. 350 00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:18,760 Speaker 1: There's a hell of a lot of sabolo as long 351 00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:20,879 Speaker 1: as your hand. There's you know, a lot. They're big. 352 00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:24,760 Speaker 1: They come back up. Do we even bother traveling up 353 00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:27,480 Speaker 1: river that night? We didn't. In a very short run 354 00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:30,639 Speaker 1: of about two maybe three hours, traveled up river again, 355 00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:34,720 Speaker 1: camp down the bank. At this point we've been digging 356 00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:37,119 Speaker 1: with fishing, and no one's called a thing yet. Okay, 357 00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:40,280 Speaker 1: I think we had one white maybe had one bite 358 00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:43,200 Speaker 1: a ad and the fish got that's right. We threw 359 00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:45,800 Speaker 1: a cast net, caught some sabol over the casting net. 360 00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:52,760 Speaker 1: Wake up the next day, travel all day again and 361 00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:57,040 Speaker 1: reach as high as you can get the boats they 362 00:20:57,119 --> 00:21:00,399 Speaker 1: called ass which is like a pepper. That's a pepper 363 00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:02,879 Speaker 1: nangs to grow up there and grow pepper, And that's 364 00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:04,159 Speaker 1: kind of the end of line. You're not gonna get 365 00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:06,440 Speaker 1: a boat anywhere beyond that, even though it's still a shipload. 366 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:07,679 Speaker 1: The river up a boat and you're not gonna get 367 00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:10,600 Speaker 1: a boat past that point. But then we're how many 368 00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:13,840 Speaker 1: days into this four? I think it's day we got 369 00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:15,800 Speaker 1: the main camp, so four days to get there. We 370 00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:17,720 Speaker 1: realize we only got three or four days to be there. 371 00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:20,560 Speaker 1: And the river, even though it's like I suppose like, 372 00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:22,600 Speaker 1: oh yeah, how you go clear, it gets all that, 373 00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:27,600 Speaker 1: just the river looks like garbage. So we plan out 374 00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:30,520 Speaker 1: right when we can't fish, So the first thing we're 375 00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:35,160 Speaker 1: gonna do is go out in the jungle to hunt 376 00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:40,000 Speaker 1: with the Chamani. Now Inblivi, it's like, technically this is 377 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:43,040 Speaker 1: something I have to look intymore. It's sort of illegal behunt, 378 00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:47,480 Speaker 1: but everybody hunts. There's just no like hunting is completely unregulated, okay, 379 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:53,680 Speaker 1: because the indigenous people have still I don't say, like 380 00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:57,280 Speaker 1: complete autonomy there. Yeah, I said. The way I was 381 00:21:57,320 --> 00:22:00,600 Speaker 1: explained to us is just that that nobody. I don't 382 00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:02,680 Speaker 1: know if it would be legal economy, but it would 383 00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:04,640 Speaker 1: just be like they get to do what they do. 384 00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:07,479 Speaker 1: There's no regulated honey, So there's no seasons, there's no 385 00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:09,880 Speaker 1: bag limits, right, It's like offer the people to decide 386 00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:13,719 Speaker 1: what they do. These guys like the hunt at night. Um, 387 00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:18,639 Speaker 1: they primarily hunt at night with flashlights with bows. And 388 00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:22,199 Speaker 1: it seems to be that recently what the technology has 389 00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:26,640 Speaker 1: been rolling in as break open shotguns. Oh yeah, double 390 00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:29,119 Speaker 1: douce as they got twenty two to the guys, to 391 00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:31,240 Speaker 1: the older guys that were kind of like seemed like 392 00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:35,320 Speaker 1: pretty experienced. I want to stay woodsman, pretty experienced jungleman. 393 00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:39,040 Speaker 1: Just dude Marko and his dude Alberto. When we picked 394 00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:41,360 Speaker 1: this guy Alberto up in one of the upper villages. 395 00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:43,560 Speaker 1: He when I bought a bow from him, and I'll 396 00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:46,119 Speaker 1: talk of these bowls real quick. They make bows entirely 397 00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:50,399 Speaker 1: a native material, so that the actual bow was one piece. 398 00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:53,280 Speaker 1: It's not laminated. It's just like one carved piece. There's 399 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:57,240 Speaker 1: a plant. They make fibers from a plant and they 400 00:22:57,320 --> 00:23:03,760 Speaker 1: weave it. First string. The arrow is is bead with 401 00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:09,199 Speaker 1: a fore shaft and the reeds soft and they what 402 00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:11,240 Speaker 1: do you call that like the string like serving they're 403 00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:13,760 Speaker 1: serving on each end of the of the shaft made 404 00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:16,719 Speaker 1: from another plant that they we even do a string 405 00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:20,320 Speaker 1: a thread cord and wrap it. They fletch it with 406 00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:25,520 Speaker 1: different feathers either curves out or we saw what else 407 00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:30,600 Speaker 1: can with the toucan. I think feathers on the toucan. 408 00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:33,840 Speaker 1: The bow and the tip are made of bamboo, some 409 00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:36,720 Speaker 1: form of bamboo. Yeah, but there's a shafts like a 410 00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:40,000 Speaker 1: shoot on bamboo. They make a tip from and and 411 00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:42,399 Speaker 1: everybody carries the same collection of arrows that carry a 412 00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:46,000 Speaker 1: couple of fish points, which are like these long, thin 413 00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:49,320 Speaker 1: points with barbs carved into them, and when you stay long, 414 00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:51,760 Speaker 1: they're kind of close to two feet. Well, the whole 415 00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:53,800 Speaker 1: day of Errol's eighteen inches two feet, the whole day 416 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:56,600 Speaker 1: of errols four feet tall. Yeah, it's definitely the longest 417 00:23:56,680 --> 00:23:59,280 Speaker 1: arrow you've ever seen. And the point is made long 418 00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:02,679 Speaker 1: because you're gonna be shooting fish and shallow rocky water 419 00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:07,879 Speaker 1: constantly dulling it, and so that you can quickly resharpened 420 00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:10,239 Speaker 1: and be back in the game. So I'm guessing one 421 00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:14,560 Speaker 1: of those points lasts a lot of shots. That's why 422 00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:17,119 Speaker 1: I was most impressed by those fish points in the hardwood, 423 00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:19,840 Speaker 1: and how easily they would pierce the fish, and how 424 00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:23,199 Speaker 1: even maybe better than metal it is just because you 425 00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:26,720 Speaker 1: can sharpen. That was really impressive to me. We could 426 00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:28,680 Speaker 1: have been out with these guys, you know, these other 427 00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:32,919 Speaker 1: like indigenous hunters in in Guyana, and they had they 428 00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:35,840 Speaker 1: probably started with the same set up. I imagine their 429 00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:39,640 Speaker 1: bowls are very similar. But they were running. They had 430 00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:42,639 Speaker 1: hog wires so like that heavy fencing, and they would 431 00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:44,960 Speaker 1: pound fish points out of hogwire and put a barb 432 00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:48,000 Speaker 1: in and with a file um. But you realize that 433 00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:50,840 Speaker 1: they their system was a little bit reliant on mammade 434 00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:56,080 Speaker 1: materials and these guys it's just not like all ship 435 00:24:56,160 --> 00:25:00,920 Speaker 1: from the jungle. Um. Same with the boats. So everybody's 436 00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:02,880 Speaker 1: get up. Like every dude that's got a bowl walks 437 00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:06,960 Speaker 1: around with his bowl and he's got four or five arrows, 438 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:10,080 Speaker 1: two or three fish points. He's got a blunt tip 439 00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:15,439 Speaker 1: which is like before shaft that's thinner than the end 440 00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:19,399 Speaker 1: of a pool queue with a big wooden blunt. It 441 00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:21,520 Speaker 1: looks like something you use the like when you're when 442 00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:23,680 Speaker 1: you're making a mohedo, like that thing you use the mash. 443 00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:30,600 Speaker 1: The mint leaves up multa ahead and then a big 444 00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:34,320 Speaker 1: game point or a land animal point, which is a 445 00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:36,239 Speaker 1: big it looks like a spear point when you look 446 00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:40,040 Speaker 1: at it, it's actually bamboo and it's sharper ship and 447 00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:42,240 Speaker 1: you can shoot it and then shave off a little 448 00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:44,000 Speaker 1: bit and sharpen it and it's like a spear point, 449 00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:47,720 Speaker 1: no metal whatsoever. And his dude, I was asking him 450 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:49,879 Speaker 1: how far how much penetration he gets on something like 451 00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:52,200 Speaker 1: a tape here and a tape here, like three pounds 452 00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:55,080 Speaker 1: thick skin. He said he'll get four or five inches 453 00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:56,920 Speaker 1: of penetration at that point. If you don't hit it 454 00:25:56,920 --> 00:25:59,520 Speaker 1: in the heart, you will not find it. So you 455 00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:02,119 Speaker 1: can image edge. The shotguns are pretty popular. When we 456 00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:05,360 Speaker 1: picked this Chimani Alberto up, he was packing. I bought 457 00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:07,199 Speaker 1: a both from him. He was packing another boat with 458 00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:10,080 Speaker 1: two fish arrows, and he brought a sixteen gage Russian 459 00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:13,440 Speaker 1: made shotgun. It looked like it was made eons ago. 460 00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:18,800 Speaker 1: The buck plates said Bocall like Lake Bacall and all 461 00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:20,880 Speaker 1: the shotguns that was made in Russian. I don't think 462 00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:23,439 Speaker 1: he even said sixteen engage on it. I didn't see it. 463 00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:26,439 Speaker 1: And he had a homemade strap made from some quicksilver 464 00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:30,960 Speaker 1: strap like the surf company. So you get there and 465 00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:32,320 Speaker 1: we're like he's like, We're like, what what do you 466 00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:33,680 Speaker 1: want to go hunt? And he wanted to go hunt 467 00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:37,040 Speaker 1: at five o'clock. So we messed around and get a 468 00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:39,680 Speaker 1: late start and me and Dane, don't you start following 469 00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:43,160 Speaker 1: this dude to Alberto and du Marco. Marcos got a bowl, 470 00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:45,680 Speaker 1: he's got his fish points. His spear point is our thing. 471 00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:48,359 Speaker 1: And we started walking. We don't get I don't know. 472 00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:50,840 Speaker 1: We didn't get very far into the jungle, maybe ten 473 00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:53,320 Speaker 1: minutes at the most. I'd said fifteen minutes. And there's 474 00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:58,120 Speaker 1: these little orange things on the ground that looked like 475 00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:02,119 Speaker 1: a you don't look like right, apricot, like dried apricot 476 00:27:02,160 --> 00:27:05,240 Speaker 1: quarters laying on the ground. And Marco turns to me 477 00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:07,119 Speaker 1: and I couldn't tell he's making a symbol to me. 478 00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:10,040 Speaker 1: We can't talk to these guys at all, right, it's 479 00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:12,280 Speaker 1: all just gestures with the word he could use a 480 00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:17,480 Speaker 1: little Spanish out. He turns me and makes a gesture 481 00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:19,480 Speaker 1: like I think he's making a gesture like a roma. 482 00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:21,919 Speaker 1: Like he's sort of running his hand up to his 483 00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:25,080 Speaker 1: nose as though he's like if you were trying to 484 00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:27,320 Speaker 1: cook something and bring the smell of what you're cooking 485 00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:31,320 Speaker 1: up to your nose. By now, think wafting, throw a 486 00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:35,520 Speaker 1: moving for him. And I'm thinking man stuff likes to 487 00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:38,240 Speaker 1: eat the fruit. And it was kind of a smear 488 00:27:38,320 --> 00:27:40,679 Speaker 1: on a leaf, like a ship like smear, and he 489 00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:44,200 Speaker 1: touched that and smelled it. And then they started looking 490 00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:49,520 Speaker 1: up in the tree and there is a monkey, a 491 00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:53,560 Speaker 1: red monkey, red howler monkey, a red howler monkey up 492 00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:58,000 Speaker 1: in the tree. And you feel like the monkey spooked 493 00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:01,320 Speaker 1: a little bit, don't you you know what? Not? I mean, 494 00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:03,440 Speaker 1: it did, but slowly. I think right when we first 495 00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:05,480 Speaker 1: saw it, it it was just it was basically just sitting 496 00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:09,600 Speaker 1: right there, maybe fifteen yards up in the tree, and 497 00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:12,040 Speaker 1: it's slowly. Yeah, I know, I don't know how spooked 498 00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:13,640 Speaker 1: it was. Maybe it was spooked, but I didn't feel 499 00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:15,800 Speaker 1: like it was booking. I felt like it was just so, 500 00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:19,920 Speaker 1: you know, ambling away. Maybe I don't know. I want 501 00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:22,680 Speaker 1: to say to man, these dudes are in tune. These 502 00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:26,359 Speaker 1: dudes I have lived kind of in the same place 503 00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:28,080 Speaker 1: their whole life are super intune what's going on. And 504 00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:29,680 Speaker 1: when you're on the jungle, if you're not, I haven't 505 00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:31,680 Speaker 1: spent much time to the jungle at all. It's bewildering 506 00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:35,600 Speaker 1: how much sound theer is. It's definite, there's all these 507 00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:37,199 Speaker 1: sounds going off. They don't give a ship about most 508 00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:39,560 Speaker 1: of sounds. Let me hear one sound like this, and 509 00:28:39,560 --> 00:28:41,880 Speaker 1: they really interested. Man, even though it's like a hundred 510 00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:45,080 Speaker 1: yards away, they got like what was that? They're like 511 00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:46,720 Speaker 1: that fruit and it's sure if they look on the 512 00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:48,120 Speaker 1: train here. This is how a monkey is. How a 513 00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:51,080 Speaker 1: monkey starts kind of leaving the area. And to do 514 00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:54,600 Speaker 1: with the shotgun goes after it. I live. Nobody tells 515 00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:57,760 Speaker 1: what happens next. Well, it's too disturbed. It's too disturbing 516 00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:00,440 Speaker 1: you to talk about. I didn't actually find that disturbing. 517 00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:03,680 Speaker 1: So we saw the monkey, and all my first thoughts 518 00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:07,400 Speaker 1: obviously we have to turn around looking lightly whole. Look 519 00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:11,880 Speaker 1: at that thing, look at that Describe that somebody, you 520 00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:14,920 Speaker 1: only describe that picture. We've been watching it for probably 521 00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:19,000 Speaker 1: three hours and it's been just constantly this evolving giant 522 00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:22,200 Speaker 1: thunderhead off in the distance. When're very flat country, so 523 00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:24,760 Speaker 1: it's a very big sky and off in the distance 524 00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:30,680 Speaker 1: there's a giant thunderhead that takes up probably the skyline. 525 00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:33,640 Speaker 1: And you know, it looks like as if you had 526 00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:37,840 Speaker 1: a veil, like a veil and behind it were shooting 527 00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:41,760 Speaker 1: off flash bulbs. That's incredible. That's probably why we're here. 528 00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:46,400 Speaker 1: That's probably the storm like that. Yeah, but the lightning 529 00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:49,440 Speaker 1: is almost constant. It's just it's just moving through this 530 00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:53,760 Speaker 1: giant thunderhead illuminating different sections of it. And there's still 531 00:29:54,240 --> 00:30:00,680 Speaker 1: pieces of sun illuminating. Like that cloud in the movie Ghostbusters. 532 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:09,160 Speaker 1: It looks like that big dark solo cloud comes in 533 00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:12,880 Speaker 1: and get some hardcore jungle ship out here. So anyways, 534 00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:15,880 Speaker 1: here's his monks, there's there's a monkey, here's a shotgun, 535 00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:18,280 Speaker 1: and um so I have all my thinking about it. 536 00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:20,120 Speaker 1: First of all, I just getting one clean shot of 537 00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:21,800 Speaker 1: that monkey in the tree, which I was able to 538 00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:24,680 Speaker 1: get several, So it wasn't booking. It was there, it 539 00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:26,920 Speaker 1: was red. It was obviously a howler monkey. I would 540 00:30:26,920 --> 00:30:29,880 Speaker 1: say it was aware of us. Yeah, no, it wasn't. 541 00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:34,600 Speaker 1: It wasn't you thought it was probably best to take off. Yeah. 542 00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:37,840 Speaker 1: It wasn't making noise though, and it wasn't moving especially fast, 543 00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:42,080 Speaker 1: because I think probably within thirty seconds. It was thirty 544 00:30:42,120 --> 00:30:44,160 Speaker 1: seconds i'd say, from when we saw it and until 545 00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:47,280 Speaker 1: the shot happened, and enough tree he moved one tree 546 00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:50,640 Speaker 1: over and came down closer to us. So now a 547 00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:52,800 Speaker 1: howler monkey, I think if you were standing up in 548 00:30:52,840 --> 00:30:54,640 Speaker 1: a holler. Monkey stood out, He's not gonna reach your 549 00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:58,720 Speaker 1: waist close. I don't think like just above knee hid 550 00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:01,320 Speaker 1: maybe yeah, off his head if you're standing next to 551 00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:07,920 Speaker 1: you long tail and yeah, so what I think They 552 00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:09,920 Speaker 1: looked to Steve first to see if he shoot it. 553 00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:12,760 Speaker 1: Steve did not want to shoot the monkey, but Steve 554 00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:16,080 Speaker 1: quickly said shoot it. Uh yeah. I had a bowl 555 00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:18,720 Speaker 1: with me. I had a compound bow I brought down. 556 00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:20,160 Speaker 1: I don't know if I was going to use the thing, 557 00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:22,840 Speaker 1: but I feel like it helps sort of in a 558 00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:26,440 Speaker 1: communication way, you know, like fellow hunters kind of stuff. Um, 559 00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:28,320 Speaker 1: but there's no way I went down like I'm not gonna, 560 00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:31,160 Speaker 1: like I vowed long time ago to not hurt monkeys. 561 00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:34,800 Speaker 1: It's like where I drawline. But Albert Tilda Chimani hunter 562 00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:37,720 Speaker 1: has no problem hurting monkeys, and in fact, he loves 563 00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:39,680 Speaker 1: to eat monkeys, and they all do. It's one of 564 00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:43,640 Speaker 1: their favorite their favorite food. It seemed to me was 565 00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:46,880 Speaker 1: was the was the small the spider monkey which they 566 00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:50,040 Speaker 1: called Marie Mono. This one they called man, which is 567 00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:52,760 Speaker 1: that red holler? And I mean it was just you know, 568 00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:56,640 Speaker 1: like I have now filmed probably I don't know, fifty 569 00:31:56,640 --> 00:32:00,520 Speaker 1: animals getting killed. And it was simple was there was 570 00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:02,920 Speaker 1: a monkey in the tree and there was a shot 571 00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:07,920 Speaker 1: and it took probably ten seconds. I feel like maybe 572 00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:11,640 Speaker 1: it was clinging on or something, or what happened? What happened? 573 00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:13,560 Speaker 1: What do you mean what first fell out of the tree. 574 00:32:14,280 --> 00:32:18,880 Speaker 1: I didn't see that. You saw that? Yeah, I saw it. Well, 575 00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:20,800 Speaker 1: the monkey gets hit was just like hitting squirrel up 576 00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:23,360 Speaker 1: and tree with the shotgun, where you know he's gonna 577 00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:25,120 Speaker 1: come down, but you're not correct your win, like he's 578 00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:28,840 Speaker 1: still kind of hanging on and out jeez man, bats, 579 00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:34,440 Speaker 1: lightning boats, lightning bolt. Out comes a baby monkey. There's 580 00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:37,120 Speaker 1: riding on the monkey. The baby monkey falls hangs up 581 00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:40,320 Speaker 1: in the brush. You saw that first, you said that 582 00:32:40,360 --> 00:32:42,480 Speaker 1: come down. I saw the monkey. I saw the baby 583 00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:44,120 Speaker 1: monkey come right out of the monkey. Oh shout. I 584 00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:47,240 Speaker 1: didn't see that. It was packing around a little baby. 585 00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:50,120 Speaker 1: There's a happy ending to this. But the baby monkey 586 00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:52,000 Speaker 1: falls down on the tree. Then the big monkey comes 587 00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:53,440 Speaker 1: down on a tree and then it kind of howled 588 00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:59,680 Speaker 1: like a holler monkey a little bit. So these guys 589 00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:02,920 Speaker 1: are too can think about that, and they pick up 590 00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:06,760 Speaker 1: the big monkey, pick up the baby monkey, come up, 591 00:33:06,920 --> 00:33:11,920 Speaker 1: have a smoke pack some coca leaves and then cut 592 00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:15,280 Speaker 1: the bottom of the tail off, which I missed on camera. 593 00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:19,280 Speaker 1: Unfortunately I didn't see it. That's those dude, Alberto. They're smoking. 594 00:33:19,280 --> 00:33:21,680 Speaker 1: And these guys are into their substances, man, from everything 595 00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:25,640 Speaker 1: I saw, they like alcohol, are like cigarettes and they 596 00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:28,480 Speaker 1: chew cocles and cokeleans or what. I developed quite a 597 00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:31,040 Speaker 1: findess for it too, just has a physical act or anything. 598 00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:36,760 Speaker 1: But they Coca's cocaine like coca cocaine comes from a 599 00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:38,880 Speaker 1: coca leaf, but it's like a chemical process I gather 600 00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:41,840 Speaker 1: to make cocaine out of it. But it's legal down 601 00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:45,560 Speaker 1: here to have coca leaves and the chimane and Doty 602 00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:49,240 Speaker 1: says all over South America like working class people Native 603 00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:52,920 Speaker 1: people just packed their gum full of coca leaves. It's 604 00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:56,080 Speaker 1: just miless, not just gum though. Cheek it's not gum 605 00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:58,320 Speaker 1: like chewing tobacco in the States. It's like it's like 606 00:33:58,440 --> 00:34:00,520 Speaker 1: a giant and they call it a bull because it's 607 00:34:00,520 --> 00:34:02,880 Speaker 1: a ball they form. It looks like a Q ball 608 00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:07,200 Speaker 1: in your cheek definitely in numbs your tooth, numbs your 609 00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:09,359 Speaker 1: cheek and numbs your tooth but I couldn't really tell 610 00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:12,560 Speaker 1: what it does. You really didn't feel anything. I couldn't. 611 00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:16,839 Speaker 1: It's it's not more than having like an espresso. No, 612 00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:19,480 Speaker 1: definitely not. I'd say even a little smoother than that. 613 00:34:19,719 --> 00:34:22,120 Speaker 1: But you're missing that. The other important part is that 614 00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:24,960 Speaker 1: they activate the alkaloids in it by baking soda. So 615 00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:29,719 Speaker 1: a very basic substance, or yes, basic substance you take. 616 00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:31,920 Speaker 1: You take baking soda, dip your finger in it, and 617 00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:33,279 Speaker 1: then you kind of rub it on the inside of 618 00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:37,640 Speaker 1: the bolo, and that taste good rising. I was scared 619 00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:39,480 Speaker 1: of that ship first. Toward the end, I was packing 620 00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:42,000 Speaker 1: at least these guys running racquetball. I was running a 621 00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:45,120 Speaker 1: golf ball with bacon sold it. And they also drink 622 00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:48,280 Speaker 1: alcohol activit. So for out with these dudes. Alberto Barco 623 00:34:49,080 --> 00:34:51,799 Speaker 1: interrupt this monkey thing for minute. I think they got 624 00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:55,040 Speaker 1: one water bottle. I'm just pouring sweat, don't he sweat 625 00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:59,399 Speaker 1: and so bad? He thought something was wrong. It was up. God, 626 00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:03,120 Speaker 1: he's dying. It's that. No, I'm sweating too like that. Meanwhile, 627 00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:05,319 Speaker 1: I'm just drinking water. I drink all my water within 628 00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:07,960 Speaker 1: the hour. And these guys got one little sixteen ounce 629 00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:11,440 Speaker 1: bottle to look like it's been like washed up on 630 00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:13,040 Speaker 1: the beach, you know, and it's full of what I 631 00:35:13,080 --> 00:35:15,920 Speaker 1: think is water, And every time they stop they swap 632 00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:18,640 Speaker 1: a swig and all that. I'm thinking, Man, these guys 633 00:35:18,640 --> 00:35:22,200 Speaker 1: don't drink any water. Oh, they're just like barely going 634 00:35:22,239 --> 00:35:24,760 Speaker 1: through this one bottle. And I realized it's this stuff 635 00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:28,120 Speaker 1: that's like taste. What is it. It's called sing ghana. 636 00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:30,600 Speaker 1: It's a great if we're drinking it right now. Liquor 637 00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:32,319 Speaker 1: man out of grapes. It's kind of like a very 638 00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:34,920 Speaker 1: strong cropper in Italy. But but they like it too 639 00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:37,560 Speaker 1: because it releases more of the alkaloids from the coca leaves. Anyways, 640 00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:41,160 Speaker 1: they shoot the monkey, have a smoke, have some more 641 00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:46,120 Speaker 1: coca leaves, have some alcohol. Then Marco walks over to 642 00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:51,080 Speaker 1: a tree and cuts a fong like cuts a string 643 00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:55,319 Speaker 1: of tree bark, ties it around the monkey's chest right 644 00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:58,600 Speaker 1: below his arms. And his monkey you're used to animals 645 00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:03,800 Speaker 1: to have six or eight teats. This monkey is nursing. 646 00:36:04,360 --> 00:36:08,000 Speaker 1: And this monkey has two tits right where humans tits are, 647 00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:11,080 Speaker 1: and it looked like humans tips, and it has a 648 00:36:11,239 --> 00:36:16,239 Speaker 1: humans vagina. Wraps the string around his armpits, wraps string 649 00:36:16,280 --> 00:36:19,760 Speaker 1: around his waist and runs like across his shoulders. Takes 650 00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:22,319 Speaker 1: a little extra string to tie the baby on there, 651 00:36:23,719 --> 00:36:26,040 Speaker 1: and we had offered the jump. I think it's worth 652 00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:29,319 Speaker 1: mentioning that old tail thing, well, the detail thing, and 653 00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:32,560 Speaker 1: just like there was a moment more than a moment 654 00:36:32,600 --> 00:36:35,720 Speaker 1: of sort of shock and sort of you know, not 655 00:36:35,719 --> 00:36:37,920 Speaker 1: not that I was shocked by it, That's what I mean. 656 00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:40,000 Speaker 1: You were shocked by No, I was shocked by I 657 00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:41,920 Speaker 1: don't mean to sound I don't mean to sound casual 658 00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:45,000 Speaker 1: about it. I had gone and the question. I have 659 00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:48,399 Speaker 1: held to dinner with some friends a couple of nights 660 00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:51,000 Speaker 1: before leaving, and we were talking about the trip, and 661 00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:54,000 Speaker 1: I was saying, I understand these boys love spider monkeys, 662 00:36:54,800 --> 00:36:58,759 Speaker 1: and I said, I will not shoot a monkey like 663 00:36:58,760 --> 00:37:00,520 Speaker 1: I don't watch. I would rather shoot a person than 664 00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:03,879 Speaker 1: a monkey, because I just like, uh, they're just like 665 00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:06,120 Speaker 1: in the words of Jerry Clower, they're too much like folks. 666 00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:09,759 Speaker 1: And to see that monkey get shot now that but 667 00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:11,640 Speaker 1: the way he was carrying around his baby, and also 668 00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:14,880 Speaker 1: that it had breast, human breast and the human vagina 669 00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:21,160 Speaker 1: and a semi human face disturbed me. I later ate 670 00:37:21,200 --> 00:37:24,200 Speaker 1: the monkey some of it, but it disturbed me no end, 671 00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:26,399 Speaker 1: and I was a little rattled by it. But then 672 00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:28,160 Speaker 1: it's like, who's the I'm not gonna tell these guys 673 00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:31,240 Speaker 1: what is your favorite food? Yeah, thats to to elaborate 674 00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:33,200 Speaker 1: on them. Not only is their favorite like they it 675 00:37:33,320 --> 00:37:35,400 Speaker 1: is a delicacy. They like it better than deer. They 676 00:37:35,480 --> 00:37:37,839 Speaker 1: like it better than poka. It is, it is better 677 00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:42,080 Speaker 1: than beef. They than times to have it translated, what's 678 00:37:42,239 --> 00:37:44,480 Speaker 1: the best food? What's your favorite food? Is the monkeys? 679 00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:48,879 Speaker 1: Spider monkey, howid monkey? Because it has more taste, That's 680 00:37:48,880 --> 00:37:50,960 Speaker 1: what that's That's what was translated back to us. Is 681 00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:54,600 Speaker 1: because it tasted like flavor or some more like there 682 00:37:54,680 --> 00:37:57,080 Speaker 1: there was something to it. And the cool thing is 683 00:37:57,120 --> 00:38:01,200 Speaker 1: this guy Alberto, like he pulls out These guys all 684 00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:04,600 Speaker 1: carry a little kitchen knives. But if you're gonna have 685 00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:07,320 Speaker 1: a kid draw like the classic kitchen knife, that's what 686 00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:10,680 Speaker 1: they all carry a lot of carbon steel. They'll have 687 00:38:10,760 --> 00:38:12,800 Speaker 1: it from a pairing knife side or whatever. No, she's 688 00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:15,719 Speaker 1: the has like put the knife in their bag, pulls 689 00:38:15,719 --> 00:38:18,680 Speaker 1: off this little pairing knife and cuts an inch of 690 00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:23,240 Speaker 1: the monkey's tail off and buries it and I thought. 691 00:38:23,560 --> 00:38:26,319 Speaker 1: I thought it was an offering, which is an outlandish 692 00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:29,360 Speaker 1: I think because they later explained us we would have 693 00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:33,960 Speaker 1: had a better trip had we given more offerings of alcohol, cigarettes, 694 00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:35,719 Speaker 1: and coca leaves to the river, we would have had 695 00:38:35,760 --> 00:38:39,600 Speaker 1: a better trip. So he buries the monkey's tail. Later 696 00:38:39,640 --> 00:38:42,919 Speaker 1: we find out you bury the monkey's tail. You cut 697 00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:45,520 Speaker 1: the monkey's tail off so that the next monkey you 698 00:38:45,600 --> 00:38:49,080 Speaker 1: kill doesn't get hung up by his tail in the tree, 699 00:38:50,120 --> 00:38:53,520 Speaker 1: which is good, which makes me think American squirrel hunters 700 00:38:53,520 --> 00:38:57,279 Speaker 1: should cut the front feet off. And Janice came up 701 00:38:57,280 --> 00:38:59,040 Speaker 1: with this idea, tell me you're gonna do the next 702 00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:03,600 Speaker 1: time to kill it? Lt you re remember saying this, 703 00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:07,080 Speaker 1: put the grass in their mouth. No, no, he was 704 00:39:07,120 --> 00:39:15,560 Speaker 1: gonna splatter the blood over the place. So and let 705 00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:17,279 Speaker 1: me take off into the jungle. And I don't think 706 00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:21,319 Speaker 1: anything more happening, No, not like a note. But I 707 00:39:21,360 --> 00:39:23,960 Speaker 1: think I think after that I probably had my favorite 708 00:39:23,960 --> 00:39:26,840 Speaker 1: moment in meat eater filming history, which was sitting in 709 00:39:26,880 --> 00:39:30,439 Speaker 1: the pitch dark with those two guys on the top 710 00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:33,600 Speaker 1: of the hill in the jungle, just like I'm wondering 711 00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:35,680 Speaker 1: what the fund is going on? You know? Just it 712 00:39:35,840 --> 00:39:38,480 Speaker 1: was that was my favorite. You were just listening to 713 00:39:38,560 --> 00:39:41,479 Speaker 1: him talk no, well that yet sitting in the dark, 714 00:39:41,560 --> 00:39:43,480 Speaker 1: that is sitting in the dark, here in the noises 715 00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:45,640 Speaker 1: of the jungle, and here in the noise of the hunters, 716 00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:49,160 Speaker 1: and just like just really soaking in that moment, because 717 00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:51,319 Speaker 1: that's not something you get to do, you know, no 718 00:39:51,320 --> 00:39:53,120 Speaker 1: matter what. I've been in the jungle a bunch of times, 719 00:39:53,680 --> 00:39:56,759 Speaker 1: but being with those guys in an actual, very authentic, 720 00:39:57,360 --> 00:40:00,640 Speaker 1: you know, looking for game all, it was pretty pretty fantastic. 721 00:40:00,719 --> 00:40:02,600 Speaker 1: I really enjoyed it. It's scary too, you know, it's 722 00:40:02,640 --> 00:40:04,359 Speaker 1: just an edge of like you don't know what you're 723 00:40:04,360 --> 00:40:06,080 Speaker 1: standing on. You don't know what's going on. You've got 724 00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:09,879 Speaker 1: all these thoughts of spiders and snakes and all this ship, 725 00:40:09,960 --> 00:40:11,400 Speaker 1: but you're just sitting right on the ground of the 726 00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:13,719 Speaker 1: jungle like it is. It's a little bit. Yeah, it's 727 00:40:13,719 --> 00:40:15,400 Speaker 1: a little bit scary, but also beautiful. And it's like 728 00:40:15,560 --> 00:40:18,919 Speaker 1: because you can't tell what the SMANI are saying, Yeah, 729 00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:20,759 Speaker 1: they could be like telling a story. Like anyway, So 730 00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:23,719 Speaker 1: I went down and I went back to Verizon, and 731 00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:25,520 Speaker 1: they told me that the phone got wet. I mean, 732 00:40:25,520 --> 00:40:28,200 Speaker 1: maybe they're talking about something like that. But like you want, 733 00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:30,160 Speaker 1: it feels like they're talking about something different and the 734 00:40:30,239 --> 00:40:33,200 Speaker 1: language is like who who here and this is not 735 00:40:33,400 --> 00:40:35,480 Speaker 1: this has comes from a place of love. Who he 736 00:40:35,520 --> 00:40:39,400 Speaker 1: would like to mimic the sound of m the sani talking, 737 00:40:40,800 --> 00:40:48,040 Speaker 1: it's kind of yeah, but not goofing on it. I 738 00:40:48,040 --> 00:40:52,000 Speaker 1: mean it really is like born really, like I later said, 739 00:40:52,000 --> 00:40:55,080 Speaker 1: it's like the words fall to the jungle floor. Yeah, 740 00:40:55,760 --> 00:40:58,160 Speaker 1: you know you when you're all the woods, you hear 741 00:40:58,239 --> 00:41:00,920 Speaker 1: some dudes talking and laughing and ship you would not 742 00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:03,680 Speaker 1: ever in a million years be all the woods and 743 00:41:03,760 --> 00:41:08,640 Speaker 1: hear some chimani to do his way off very They 744 00:41:08,680 --> 00:41:10,760 Speaker 1: don't like talk loud by the river when they're fishing. 745 00:41:11,239 --> 00:41:18,000 Speaker 1: It's very guttural. There's like because they could be talking 746 00:41:18,040 --> 00:41:19,960 Speaker 1: about the most banal stuff, but it feels like they're 747 00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:25,440 Speaker 1: talking about some ancestral hunting business. I got the sense 748 00:41:25,440 --> 00:41:28,600 Speaker 1: that they were just saying super simple things too. I 749 00:41:28,640 --> 00:41:30,799 Speaker 1: mean that I had no idea if that's true enough. 750 00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:33,439 Speaker 1: But they'll stop a gesture about trees and stuff a lot, 751 00:41:34,120 --> 00:41:36,719 Speaker 1: you know, and not carrying out a conversation, but just 752 00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:40,239 Speaker 1: like you know, sharing information, and then they would use 753 00:41:40,280 --> 00:41:42,280 Speaker 1: their flashlights now and then. But now when they stop 754 00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:46,000 Speaker 1: and just like just like listen and yeah, and the 755 00:41:46,080 --> 00:41:49,200 Speaker 1: jungle is deafening. Man. Yeah, it's worth to mention again 756 00:41:49,320 --> 00:41:53,399 Speaker 1: the volume of the jungle at night is just it's 757 00:41:53,480 --> 00:41:56,759 Speaker 1: mind bottling. I was very on edge and night that 758 00:41:56,880 --> 00:42:01,120 Speaker 1: I spent, you know, filming you guys hunting. It was like, 759 00:42:01,160 --> 00:42:03,960 Speaker 1: you're on the trail, it's daylight. It's like, all right, 760 00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:06,680 Speaker 1: it's woods. You're just in the familiar woods. Doesn't matter 761 00:42:06,680 --> 00:42:08,760 Speaker 1: if it's Montana, and believe it, you're in the woods. 762 00:42:08,880 --> 00:42:11,960 Speaker 1: These are woods. And then it got dark and every 763 00:42:11,960 --> 00:42:14,160 Speaker 1: time I stepped six inches off that trail, man, it's 764 00:42:14,200 --> 00:42:16,640 Speaker 1: just like my adrenaline just put up just a little bit. 765 00:42:16,800 --> 00:42:18,920 Speaker 1: Just you don't know, do you think there's any place 766 00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:20,680 Speaker 1: in the United States that has as loud of a 767 00:42:20,840 --> 00:42:24,480 Speaker 1: of a night of woods, like down south or anything. 768 00:42:24,640 --> 00:42:26,879 Speaker 1: And there's got to be around Florida or something that 769 00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:31,000 Speaker 1: I don't know, Possibly it's loud, but it can't be 770 00:42:31,160 --> 00:42:33,440 Speaker 1: like this. I've been around, I've been you know, I mean, 771 00:42:33,480 --> 00:42:35,160 Speaker 1: just sound like a blar. I mean, I've been to 772 00:42:35,160 --> 00:42:37,280 Speaker 1: a ton of places not never thought that this place 773 00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:41,919 Speaker 1: is loud. And the next night here right now, Yeah, 774 00:42:43,120 --> 00:42:46,160 Speaker 1: the next night we go out. Nothing of note really 775 00:42:46,200 --> 00:42:50,319 Speaker 1: happened during the day. Nothing happened that day, no fish 776 00:42:50,400 --> 00:42:54,360 Speaker 1: or car. The next night we go out and on 777 00:42:54,440 --> 00:42:56,000 Speaker 1: the else, say, when you're walking on the trail, they're 778 00:42:56,000 --> 00:42:58,040 Speaker 1: always kind of looking off your best interest. And there's 779 00:42:58,080 --> 00:42:59,719 Speaker 1: so many things out there. They're gonna mess you up 780 00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:02,600 Speaker 1: because some snake. Did you ever catch what that snake was? Look, No, 781 00:43:02,719 --> 00:43:04,560 Speaker 1: I don't know what it's called. I thought that it 782 00:43:04,640 --> 00:43:06,600 Speaker 1: might have been the bushmaster, but I don't believe. So 783 00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:09,000 Speaker 1: it's a little green, skinny green snake. Is it is 784 00:43:09,040 --> 00:43:11,040 Speaker 1: the worst guy, the most dangerous thing out there. There's 785 00:43:11,080 --> 00:43:14,319 Speaker 1: some spiders that will mess you up good. And there's 786 00:43:14,320 --> 00:43:18,319 Speaker 1: this little critter called the bullet ant. It's like kind 787 00:43:18,360 --> 00:43:22,279 Speaker 1: of inch and a half long. So we get to 788 00:43:22,320 --> 00:43:23,840 Speaker 1: talking about how we're gonna go out and sit a 789 00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:27,840 Speaker 1: salt lick at night with flashlights, and we leave before 790 00:43:27,960 --> 00:43:34,120 Speaker 1: dark again and start walking through the jungle, and nothing 791 00:43:34,120 --> 00:43:36,400 Speaker 1: really happened. No, No No, don't know what am I saying? No, 792 00:43:36,480 --> 00:43:38,880 Speaker 1: that got after a bird. I missed the bird a 793 00:43:38,920 --> 00:43:44,000 Speaker 1: couple of times with my bowl. Marco missed with his bowl. 794 00:43:44,040 --> 00:43:46,360 Speaker 1: Barrett'll shot at with a shotgun and missed it. But 795 00:43:46,480 --> 00:43:51,480 Speaker 1: it's this small bird, a gwan they really wanted. They 796 00:43:51,520 --> 00:43:54,240 Speaker 1: call a lot of birds pavlo, which is Spanish for turkey. 797 00:43:54,400 --> 00:43:57,239 Speaker 1: That's sort of like they know the names of them absolutely, 798 00:43:57,239 --> 00:44:00,279 Speaker 1: but they refer to him generally the same when you 799 00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:04,919 Speaker 1: might say game bird. I guess you think, yeah, yeah, 800 00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:07,000 Speaker 1: maybe like yeah, you use like the word grouse, right, 801 00:44:07,040 --> 00:44:09,560 Speaker 1: and there's obviously a bunch of species of grouse. They 802 00:44:09,640 --> 00:44:12,719 Speaker 1: use pava and it's like bird that is good to eat, 803 00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:15,320 Speaker 1: and all of these pava there could be any number 804 00:44:15,320 --> 00:44:22,160 Speaker 1: of birds, black and crests, curras out and the guans anymore. Yeah, 805 00:44:22,160 --> 00:44:23,760 Speaker 1: I don't know anymore, but it's a couple of guanas. 806 00:44:24,080 --> 00:44:28,280 Speaker 1: We could after one of those beautiful bird. They wanted 807 00:44:28,280 --> 00:44:33,239 Speaker 1: it real bad. Um that turns up nothing and through 808 00:44:33,320 --> 00:44:35,120 Speaker 1: Chase's bird we kind of wind up. I kind of 809 00:44:35,239 --> 00:44:37,120 Speaker 1: do you think we ever got this? This night? The 810 00:44:37,120 --> 00:44:38,440 Speaker 1: first thing I went out as being dot and then 811 00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:41,359 Speaker 1: the next night we go out it's me and Phil 812 00:44:41,440 --> 00:44:43,239 Speaker 1: Barab Do you do you feel like we got to 813 00:44:43,239 --> 00:44:45,480 Speaker 1: the salt like you have no idea what's going on 814 00:44:45,560 --> 00:44:48,360 Speaker 1: because you can't communicate with the duzy with it seemed 815 00:44:48,400 --> 00:44:51,040 Speaker 1: like we were because he broke branches. We got to 816 00:44:51,080 --> 00:44:54,080 Speaker 1: this little creek bed, like small creek bed, and he 817 00:44:54,120 --> 00:44:58,040 Speaker 1: broke branches like a shooting lane. Yeah, that's the set up. 818 00:44:58,080 --> 00:45:00,560 Speaker 1: And then they both came up. We've found a log, 819 00:45:00,640 --> 00:45:02,799 Speaker 1: and we sat on the log like you would wait 820 00:45:02,840 --> 00:45:05,200 Speaker 1: for any other kind of hunt. That's what I felt like. 821 00:45:05,239 --> 00:45:07,200 Speaker 1: I felt like, oh, he's clear a little shooting lane, 822 00:45:08,080 --> 00:45:10,280 Speaker 1: and we kind of get away and we got flashlace. 823 00:45:10,320 --> 00:45:14,080 Speaker 1: But it's still daylight out, just getting dark. And the 824 00:45:14,239 --> 00:45:17,000 Speaker 1: night before I noticed every time we stepped over a log, 825 00:45:17,960 --> 00:45:21,040 Speaker 1: they would examine the log and then take the bow 826 00:45:21,120 --> 00:45:24,680 Speaker 1: tip and kill these big asked ants on the log. 827 00:45:24,840 --> 00:45:27,200 Speaker 1: And I got the sense, I mean, everything moves, that 828 00:45:27,280 --> 00:45:29,399 Speaker 1: everything's alive. Is you never run out of new kinds 829 00:45:29,440 --> 00:45:31,600 Speaker 1: of books. I got the sense that they don't like 830 00:45:31,680 --> 00:45:37,200 Speaker 1: that kind of ant um. And we're sitting there and 831 00:45:37,239 --> 00:45:38,680 Speaker 1: I think it was just because I just turned my 832 00:45:38,760 --> 00:45:41,120 Speaker 1: light on. Maybe I can't even also realized just six 833 00:45:41,160 --> 00:45:47,880 Speaker 1: of these big gass ants were around us. And you 834 00:45:47,920 --> 00:45:51,440 Speaker 1: got it first, Yeah, I got it. It was on 835 00:45:51,560 --> 00:45:53,399 Speaker 1: my shirt. Well, I was worried because we were sitting 836 00:45:53,400 --> 00:45:55,640 Speaker 1: there and I was worried they climbed up under my 837 00:45:55,719 --> 00:45:58,520 Speaker 1: shirt and so just as I went to look, it 838 00:45:58,640 --> 00:46:02,600 Speaker 1: stung me right on the basically first knuckle, my first finger, 839 00:46:03,719 --> 00:46:07,440 Speaker 1: and I probably screamed a little bit and it on 840 00:46:07,680 --> 00:46:11,360 Speaker 1: like a bit, and it basically it was like it 841 00:46:11,440 --> 00:46:15,040 Speaker 1: was a bad beasting. But I didn't know what to think. Initially, Yeah, 842 00:46:15,200 --> 00:46:21,800 Speaker 1: in initially in the same times, No, it wasn't like crazy, 843 00:46:21,920 --> 00:46:23,799 Speaker 1: not like a honey bee, but like a hornet, you know, 844 00:46:23,880 --> 00:46:27,239 Speaker 1: like a bad beast thing where you're like, yeah, you 845 00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:30,040 Speaker 1: would have thought it was a horn for five minutes beyond, 846 00:46:30,200 --> 00:46:32,239 Speaker 1: like you can't even say it's smart. It's worse than 847 00:46:32,320 --> 00:46:36,000 Speaker 1: it's smart. So no, it's like it's you don't think 848 00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:40,720 Speaker 1: about something else. You would be like, you're like, what 849 00:46:41,400 --> 00:46:42,960 Speaker 1: something is still on the beat on the neck by 850 00:46:43,040 --> 00:46:45,319 Speaker 1: be last night, I would have reacted about the same 851 00:46:45,320 --> 00:46:48,200 Speaker 1: way in the first five minutes of a bullet ant. Yeah, 852 00:46:48,239 --> 00:46:52,319 Speaker 1: but those bees were like a tenth of when you say, 853 00:46:52,360 --> 00:46:57,680 Speaker 1: you know, I'm saying the initial z initial zap was 854 00:46:57,960 --> 00:47:00,960 Speaker 1: be like it quickly becomes a thing like a but 855 00:47:01,040 --> 00:47:04,799 Speaker 1: it's the initial zap is be like, but before you 856 00:47:04,840 --> 00:47:07,960 Speaker 1: go into years, how you know, so as a cameraman. 857 00:47:08,239 --> 00:47:10,600 Speaker 1: I got stung. I knew Patrick, who was one of 858 00:47:10,680 --> 00:47:13,359 Speaker 1: the guys here, had had kind of mentioned everything that 859 00:47:13,400 --> 00:47:15,560 Speaker 1: bites and stings and you know, and I remember him 860 00:47:15,600 --> 00:47:18,040 Speaker 1: saying bullet and and I didn't know if it was 861 00:47:18,120 --> 00:47:19,879 Speaker 1: bad or if it was just like a b sting 862 00:47:19,960 --> 00:47:22,080 Speaker 1: or whatever. And so they're asking me, are you okay? 863 00:47:22,080 --> 00:47:25,000 Speaker 1: And I'm like, yeah, it hurts, but I gotta keep shooting. 864 00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:30,000 Speaker 1: We're here, okay, we can't.

We have abandoned the 870 00:47:43,400 --> 00:47:47,360 Speaker 1: plan to hunt the lick. So they were aware of 871 00:47:47,400 --> 00:47:51,480 Speaker 1: the bullets. Yeah, they are funny that we guessed on aiden. No, 872 00:47:51,680 --> 00:47:53,560 Speaker 1: they were were the bullets when I turned my light on. 873 00:47:53,719 --> 00:47:56,400 Speaker 1: I have to turn light on, and was like wow. 874 00:47:56,880 --> 00:47:59,279 Speaker 1: After you both got yeah, Phil get zapped, They're like, 875 00:47:59,400 --> 00:48:02,200 Speaker 1: let's go, We'll start walking and I get zapped on 876 00:48:02,280 --> 00:48:07,719 Speaker 1: the ankle through a neoprene sock.

I was thinking, there's no way 929 00:51:08,520 --> 00:51:11,520 Speaker 1: I can sleep with this level of paint. That was 930 00:51:11,560 --> 00:51:14,800 Speaker 1: where I was at at that point, and Marco and 931 00:51:15,160 --> 00:51:19,960 Speaker 1: Alberta had lost all interest in our bites. We somehow 932 00:51:20,000 --> 00:51:22,440 Speaker 1: wound up way hass back in the jungle on the 933 00:51:22,520 --> 00:51:25,680 Speaker 1: edge of the river, laying there on these huge boulders, 934 00:51:26,080 --> 00:51:29,640 Speaker 1: these huge boulders on this river. We shine for some 935 00:51:29,719 --> 00:51:32,920 Speaker 1: fish and then we're all laying out on these rocks. Actually, 936 00:51:32,960 --> 00:51:36,360 Speaker 1: and before that, you gotta mention the Bene drill. Oh, 937 00:51:36,440 --> 00:51:41,239 Speaker 1: so we took eye profit at ben and drill, which 938 00:51:41,360 --> 00:51:43,880 Speaker 1: knocked our dicks in the dirt man, but couldn't even 939 00:51:43,880 --> 00:51:46,879 Speaker 1: stay away around the jungle Middle Night, couldn't stay away, 940 00:51:47,360 --> 00:51:48,920 Speaker 1: go down the river, and then Middle we arrive at 941 00:51:48,960 --> 00:51:50,960 Speaker 1: the edge of the river. A barrel shines light the 942 00:51:51,040 --> 00:51:54,160 Speaker 1: river and I'm nothing. There's a fish's tail at the surf. 943 00:51:54,280 --> 00:51:56,160 Speaker 1: You can't see three inches in the water, but there's 944 00:51:56,160 --> 00:51:59,279 Speaker 1: a fish's tail. So Marco Real quick loads bowl the 945 00:51:59,280 --> 00:52:01,839 Speaker 1: fish are will pull back. The fishtail vanishes, and then 946 00:52:01,840 --> 00:52:03,719 Speaker 1: it decided that we will now lay on the river 947 00:52:03,760 --> 00:52:06,000 Speaker 1: bank on the rocks in the dark for an hour, 948 00:52:06,880 --> 00:52:09,640 Speaker 1: at which point and smoke cigarettes from the cook leaves, 949 00:52:09,760 --> 00:52:12,839 Speaker 1: at which point I'm like, there's no way i can 950 00:52:12,880 --> 00:52:15,400 Speaker 1: sleep with this level of pain. And I'm really sleeping 951 00:52:15,440 --> 00:52:17,480 Speaker 1: from taking the ben and drill, and I remember that 952 00:52:17,520 --> 00:52:21,279 Speaker 1: we had a CB and or a radio and there's 953 00:52:21,280 --> 00:52:22,520 Speaker 1: no way they'll hear.

It's conveyed to us that it just hurts 956 00:52:32,960 --> 00:52:36,520 Speaker 1: like a bitch, then goes away. And shortly after it 957 00:52:36,760 --> 00:52:40,480 Speaker 1: went away the pain. When we got back that night 958 00:52:40,600 --> 00:52:46,640 Speaker 1: at we got stung red.

We didn't learn from them what it was. 999 00:55:09,239 --> 00:55:10,959 Speaker 1: But They're like, well, there's a monkey by the way. 1000 00:55:11,080 --> 00:55:15,120 Speaker 1: I'm thinking what you boys shirt, Oh, we gotta back 1001 00:55:15,200 --> 00:55:20,600 Speaker 1: up before the bullet ant thing. The night we get 1002 00:55:20,600 --> 00:55:23,359 Speaker 1: back with the MoMA monkey and the baby monkey, or like, 1003 00:55:23,440 --> 00:55:26,960 Speaker 1: way down the monkey. We want to film cooking the monkey. 1004 00:55:28,880 --> 00:55:30,680 Speaker 1: They go down the river. We're like, you can go 1005 00:55:30,680 --> 00:55:32,239 Speaker 1: ahead and gut it, So go down the river. They 1006 00:55:32,239 --> 00:55:34,000 Speaker 1: go down the river, and they got the monkey and 1007 00:55:34,120 --> 00:55:39,880 Speaker 1: pull out the kidney's heart and liver and intestines and 1008 00:55:40,000 --> 00:55:45,760 Speaker 1: flush the intestines tournaments side out, put them on a stick, 1009 00:55:47,840 --> 00:55:49,640 Speaker 1: and they asked if they eat the baby monkey. And 1010 00:55:49,640 --> 00:55:52,680 Speaker 1: this baby monkey isn't as long and I'm looking right 1011 00:55:52,680 --> 00:55:56,160 Speaker 1: now at a water bottom. If you stretch this monkey out, 1012 00:55:56,160 --> 00:55:58,560 Speaker 1: he's not as long as the water bottle, say a 1013 00:55:58,560 --> 00:56:03,480 Speaker 1: little kitten a kid. They take them onto the baby monkey, 1014 00:56:03,520 --> 00:56:11,920 Speaker 1: burn his hair off real quick, cut him into They 1015 00:56:11,960 --> 00:56:14,320 Speaker 1: basically had him in quarter room and freed him in 1016 00:56:14,360 --> 00:56:21,200 Speaker 1: a walk little arms head, it's a feat. Look what 1017 00:56:21,600 --> 00:56:25,160 Speaker 1: it's They fried him up in a walk him. It 1018 00:56:25,280 --> 00:56:32,480 Speaker 1: was disturbing. Yeah, out sugarcoated for wet head rig For Westerners, 1019 00:56:32,520 --> 00:56:36,279 Speaker 1: it is a very very shocking picture. You know, we 1020 00:56:36,320 --> 00:56:41,240 Speaker 1: are just not accustomed to anything like that. It's it's shocking, 1021 00:56:41,239 --> 00:56:46,000 Speaker 1: it's disturbing, it's but to them, they were so excited, 1022 00:56:46,160 --> 00:56:52,279 Speaker 1: so stoked, and they fried the baby in oil. The 1023 00:56:52,320 --> 00:56:55,919 Speaker 1: next day were cooking the whole monkey. They take the monkey, 1024 00:56:55,920 --> 00:56:59,000 Speaker 1: holding by the tail, waved over the fire and burn 1025 00:57:00,200 --> 00:57:02,600 Speaker 1: all the hair off the monkey, and they scrape with 1026 00:57:02,640 --> 00:57:04,720 Speaker 1: the machete. Then you go down the river and clean 1027 00:57:04,840 --> 00:57:08,880 Speaker 1: the monkey. Then he kind of cuts all the joints 1028 00:57:08,920 --> 00:57:13,680 Speaker 1: just enough where he can break the joints so open, 1029 00:57:13,840 --> 00:57:17,520 Speaker 1: like you're opened up what would be like your ball 1030 00:57:17,600 --> 00:57:20,919 Speaker 1: joints at the top of your femur. Cut the knee 1031 00:57:21,000 --> 00:57:24,120 Speaker 1: joints a little bit, cut the elbow joints a little bit, 1032 00:57:25,160 --> 00:57:30,880 Speaker 1: took some vines. They use barker behind for which to 1033 00:57:31,000 --> 00:57:34,880 Speaker 1: bind the monkey. Trust it. He trust the monkey with 1034 00:57:34,920 --> 00:57:38,440 Speaker 1: either bark or mind. Yeah, I think he would use 1035 00:57:38,800 --> 00:57:43,080 Speaker 1: bark cut mortals, ropes from the bar and trust the monkey. 1036 00:57:43,440 --> 00:57:46,280 Speaker 1: And then they build a rack up over the fire. 1037 00:57:47,960 --> 00:57:52,000 Speaker 1: You know, they always stay at their logs perpendicular like 1038 00:57:52,040 --> 00:57:55,080 Speaker 1: their fires. They like lay the logs b I'm sorry 1039 00:57:55,080 --> 00:57:57,520 Speaker 1: not don't they always stack the would there's lay a 1040 00:57:57,520 --> 00:57:59,959 Speaker 1: bunch of big logs parallel on the fire. They gotta 1041 00:58:00,080 --> 00:58:02,160 Speaker 1: rack over it, trust the monkey, and then said he's 1042 00:58:02,160 --> 00:58:05,680 Speaker 1: gonna smoke that monkey eight hours, six hours. Smoked the 1043 00:58:05,680 --> 00:58:09,000 Speaker 1: monkey for six hours, then just chopped up the little 1044 00:58:09,040 --> 00:58:12,680 Speaker 1: pieces and they made monkey soup thicken some water, monkey 1045 00:58:12,880 --> 00:58:16,920 Speaker 1: and plantain. Both the plantaine they like, scraped with a spoon, 1046 00:58:17,120 --> 00:58:21,240 Speaker 1: green green plantain scraped real fine, and then it so 1047 00:58:21,320 --> 00:58:24,000 Speaker 1: it became more like a meal because they became kind 1048 00:58:24,040 --> 00:58:26,040 Speaker 1: of a thickening agent or a grave deal. It has 1049 00:58:26,080 --> 00:58:29,840 Speaker 1: been almost like monkey and corn meal, corn mash and grits, right, 1050 00:58:29,960 --> 00:58:33,720 Speaker 1: but made out of plantain skin on it. And it 1051 00:58:33,760 --> 00:58:37,240 Speaker 1: tasted like I struggle. I couldn't think of would taste 1052 00:58:37,280 --> 00:58:38,720 Speaker 1: like now, if I had to say, it tastes like 1053 00:58:38,760 --> 00:58:42,720 Speaker 1: something to tastes like a smoke turkey drumstick with a 1054 00:58:42,920 --> 00:58:46,680 Speaker 1: very thick skin. These boys eat everything they couldn't get 1055 00:58:46,680 --> 00:58:48,400 Speaker 1: through the skin. I didn't see anybody tried to eat 1056 00:58:48,400 --> 00:58:50,919 Speaker 1: the skin. You make a football out of that monkey skin. 1057 00:58:51,840 --> 00:58:54,600 Speaker 1: There's no meat anywhere. I mean, just meat, but it's 1058 00:58:55,200 --> 00:58:57,960 Speaker 1: thin pieces of meat, whatever piece I gotta have, like, 1059 00:58:58,040 --> 00:59:01,320 Speaker 1: I got a good like mouth full of of flesh 1060 00:59:01,360 --> 00:59:02,760 Speaker 1: when I took him. But I don't know what it was. 1061 00:59:02,760 --> 00:59:05,680 Speaker 1: I'm telling what it was, good man. It was very 1062 00:59:05,720 --> 00:59:08,800 Speaker 1: mild that it was alarmed. Say threw the brain and 1063 00:59:08,840 --> 00:59:11,000 Speaker 1: the spinal column in there. And you always hear about 1064 00:59:11,000 --> 00:59:13,600 Speaker 1: diseases that may jump from monkeys, but I think mostly 1065 00:59:13,640 --> 00:59:17,360 Speaker 1: that happens in Africa. That's just a general thing. I 1066 00:59:17,400 --> 00:59:19,720 Speaker 1: think that you're you're you're warranted to not eat much 1067 00:59:19,760 --> 00:59:23,360 Speaker 1: spinal column, fluid or brain, so that I wasn't. I 1068 00:59:23,360 --> 00:59:25,920 Speaker 1: still am a little alarmed, but I was alarmed by 1069 00:59:25,920 --> 00:59:27,600 Speaker 1: the monkey. But I'll tell you what. The monkey was 1070 00:59:27,760 --> 00:59:30,280 Speaker 1: legitimately good. And it didn't taste like and you can 1071 00:59:30,320 --> 00:59:32,640 Speaker 1: see why people like is it doesn't taste like anything. 1072 00:59:33,520 --> 00:59:35,640 Speaker 1: I mean, it tastes good, but it's not. You don't 1073 00:59:35,680 --> 00:59:39,120 Speaker 1: eat it and think it's like, I know these guys 1074 00:59:39,120 --> 00:59:41,280 Speaker 1: are laughing at me. I'm like, now, if I've never 1075 00:59:41,360 --> 00:59:44,600 Speaker 1: served monkey in secret, i'd be like, that's monkey. I 1076 00:59:44,640 --> 00:59:48,080 Speaker 1: feel like I gotta that. I know now, like what 1077 00:59:48,240 --> 00:59:50,720 Speaker 1: monkey tastes like. They're like the brain out of there, 1078 00:59:50,760 --> 00:59:55,200 Speaker 1: they eat the head. There was there's a for me, 1079 00:59:55,520 --> 00:59:58,360 Speaker 1: a lesson. They're just in general about being a meat hunter, 1080 00:59:58,840 --> 01:00:02,240 Speaker 1: you know, and some out you know, the perspective of 1081 01:00:02,320 --> 01:00:04,440 Speaker 1: seeing these guys doing what they normally do and just 1082 01:00:04,480 --> 01:00:07,560 Speaker 1: comparing it to us killing a deer in Minnesota or 1083 01:00:07,560 --> 01:00:10,680 Speaker 1: in Montana. It was. It was an high opening experience 1084 01:00:10,760 --> 01:00:13,320 Speaker 1: just to just to eat it and know that it 1085 01:00:13,440 --> 01:00:17,320 Speaker 1: was not any different than anything that we ever do themselves. No, 1086 01:00:17,480 --> 01:00:21,280 Speaker 1: there was no like you well, all seventeen guys lined 1087 01:00:21,360 --> 01:00:23,360 Speaker 1: up to get monkey, and they were lining up like 1088 01:00:23,400 --> 01:00:24,920 Speaker 1: if you you know, if you had a bunch of 1089 01:00:24,960 --> 01:00:26,760 Speaker 1: dudes you hang out with over your house and you 1090 01:00:26,840 --> 01:00:32,200 Speaker 1: made chili and you're like, chili's ready, and everybody came 1091 01:00:32,200 --> 01:00:35,160 Speaker 1: to get some chili. It was just like that. It 1092 01:00:35,320 --> 01:00:39,120 Speaker 1: wasn't like, oh man, we're weird ship now. It was like, awesome, man, 1093 01:00:39,200 --> 01:00:42,840 Speaker 1: he made chili. Chili is so good. The difference things 1094 01:00:42,880 --> 01:00:44,840 Speaker 1: we had to be strict about them not eating it 1095 01:00:44,880 --> 01:00:46,800 Speaker 1: before we were like, they wanted to eat it that 1096 01:00:46,880 --> 01:00:49,720 Speaker 1: first night, Yeah, they almost did. We had to basically 1097 01:00:49,760 --> 01:00:52,280 Speaker 1: protect this monkey so we could film them. You doing 1098 01:00:52,280 --> 01:00:54,400 Speaker 1: the chili thing. I don't mean like um like it 1099 01:00:54,480 --> 01:00:58,320 Speaker 1: was blase. I mean like you're hungry, your buddy made 1100 01:00:58,320 --> 01:01:02,400 Speaker 1: a great chili. I mean like excited, but not like 1101 01:01:02,520 --> 01:01:05,439 Speaker 1: who you know, Yeah, I feel like it was more 1102 01:01:05,600 --> 01:01:08,720 Speaker 1: like if you were serving up tenureline. There was that 1103 01:01:08,840 --> 01:01:13,080 Speaker 1: kind of excitement. Yeah. Probably I was just saying chili 1104 01:01:13,120 --> 01:01:17,880 Speaker 1: markssthing you laid all out. Yeah, Marco he is he 1105 01:01:17,960 --> 01:01:21,240 Speaker 1: uses a banana leaf of plantain leaf to make a spoon. Man, 1106 01:01:23,000 --> 01:01:25,240 Speaker 1: I feel like there that get more credit. We need 1107 01:01:25,240 --> 01:01:27,640 Speaker 1: to like build him up a little bit. Marco was like, yeah, 1108 01:01:27,680 --> 01:01:32,360 Speaker 1: you're hearing his story though the deer throwing that thing, 1109 01:01:32,920 --> 01:01:36,480 Speaker 1: I can't out. But yeah, so third night out, Marco 1110 01:01:36,640 --> 01:01:40,520 Speaker 1: is like Marco kind merged as he looks older, but 1111 01:01:40,640 --> 01:01:45,160 Speaker 1: he's my age one year older. He's forty one, you know, 1112 01:01:45,800 --> 01:01:49,520 Speaker 1: but it looks like a solid fifty one, maybe even 1113 01:01:50,160 --> 01:01:55,280 Speaker 1: very hard hunter, whether you know, dark skin, traditional haircut. 1114 01:01:56,760 --> 01:02:00,680 Speaker 1: Later told us that later we're kind of the story 1115 01:02:00,720 --> 01:02:04,760 Speaker 1: that was about a jaguar he killed. Only one prided 1116 01:02:04,800 --> 01:02:07,000 Speaker 1: did he bring this up? But a jaguar he killed 1117 01:02:07,040 --> 01:02:09,120 Speaker 1: that He has some hunting dogs and he was out 1118 01:02:09,200 --> 01:02:12,240 Speaker 1: hunting one night and a jaguar killed his dog and 1119 01:02:12,280 --> 01:02:15,080 Speaker 1: he killed the jaguar. And it was a pretty fascinating 1120 01:02:15,120 --> 01:02:19,240 Speaker 1: story if you'd go to the meat eater dot Com 1121 01:02:19,400 --> 01:02:21,760 Speaker 1: were posting that interview, and we went to the interview 1122 01:02:21,800 --> 01:02:24,720 Speaker 1: on the show with someone, Yeah, I think we should will. 1123 01:02:25,600 --> 01:02:27,360 Speaker 1: So he was only monkey and training. They could give 1124 01:02:27,400 --> 01:02:30,560 Speaker 1: a ship about this monkey and that kind of like 1125 01:02:30,640 --> 01:02:32,920 Speaker 1: I'm like, they're looking at me, and I'm like, well 1126 01:02:32,920 --> 01:02:36,160 Speaker 1: shoot the monkeys. I make the universe like pow pow noise, 1127 01:02:36,240 --> 01:02:38,080 Speaker 1: and he kind of didn't care. One of the margaret 1128 01:02:38,120 --> 01:02:43,840 Speaker 1: grabs the shotgun goes off in that direction and uh 1129 01:02:44,120 --> 01:02:46,520 Speaker 1: he said he had a shot. Oh yeah, I followed him. 1130 01:02:46,600 --> 01:02:49,120 Speaker 1: We could see the monkey jumping up through the tree branches. 1131 01:02:49,160 --> 01:02:51,560 Speaker 1: You could see like a full sillo again you know, 1132 01:02:51,720 --> 01:02:54,240 Speaker 1: nighttime you can, but against the sky still had just 1133 01:02:54,360 --> 01:02:57,080 Speaker 1: enough light we could see the full silhouette of the monkey. 1134 01:02:57,520 --> 01:02:59,760 Speaker 1: He points at it, kind of gets his light like 1135 01:03:00,040 --> 01:03:02,920 Speaker 1: you know, positions with the gun pointed at it, and 1136 01:03:02,960 --> 01:03:05,560 Speaker 1: then just was like let's go. You know, they didn't 1137 01:03:05,560 --> 01:03:08,800 Speaker 1: want that kind of monkey. We go down the trail 1138 01:03:08,800 --> 01:03:12,040 Speaker 1: a little bit and Marco's walking point with the shotgun. 1139 01:03:13,560 --> 01:03:17,120 Speaker 1: Albert is behind him with the bow. I'm behind Alberto 1140 01:03:17,240 --> 01:03:22,160 Speaker 1: with a bow, and Est is behind you the camera 1141 01:03:22,200 --> 01:03:23,600 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden you'll see him. They get 1142 01:03:23,600 --> 01:03:25,160 Speaker 1: tuned in and he knows something's going on, and all 1143 01:03:25,160 --> 01:03:27,600 Speaker 1: of a sudden, Marko's got his light, his flashlight and 1144 01:03:27,600 --> 01:03:31,080 Speaker 1: his shotgun. Alberto stops and Marco kind of goes ahead 1145 01:03:31,120 --> 01:03:34,880 Speaker 1: and tell that he's gonna shoot, and I am, you know, 1146 01:03:35,080 --> 01:03:37,880 Speaker 1: with the six he engaged, and again it's amazing because 1147 01:03:37,920 --> 01:03:40,400 Speaker 1: there's no way that I knew that we had any 1148 01:03:40,520 --> 01:03:47,040 Speaker 1: idea ship. He shoots and it's like he hit Godzilla. 1149 01:03:47,880 --> 01:03:51,600 Speaker 1: The I thought it was the tape here something big. 1150 01:03:52,320 --> 01:03:54,160 Speaker 1: I mean, it's sound like a horse couldn't running though 1151 01:03:54,160 --> 01:03:56,919 Speaker 1: the jongle with that. Mom I'm like, holy, I didn't 1152 01:03:56,960 --> 01:04:00,200 Speaker 1: know what was gonna happen. But what happened was he 1153 01:04:00,280 --> 01:04:02,520 Speaker 1: hit a red brocket deer, but he's too far out 1154 01:04:02,560 --> 01:04:04,400 Speaker 1: front and just hit at the tip of his nose 1155 01:04:04,440 --> 01:04:07,120 Speaker 1: and buckshot, so his nose is kind of perfect with 1156 01:04:07,160 --> 01:04:12,600 Speaker 1: four or five buckshot wounds not fatal at all. And 1157 01:04:12,680 --> 01:04:16,960 Speaker 1: the deer for whatever reason, runs up onto the trail 1158 01:04:17,120 --> 01:04:20,720 Speaker 1: kind of like in the middle of us all and stops. 1159 01:04:22,640 --> 01:04:24,280 Speaker 1: I pull out air and I can't see a thing. 1160 01:04:25,240 --> 01:04:27,040 Speaker 1: I pull out area and try to sight it down 1161 01:04:27,160 --> 01:04:30,200 Speaker 1: side and hit the brocket deers in the back leg. 1162 01:04:30,800 --> 01:04:33,400 Speaker 1: The brocket deer runs off in the jungle. Then we 1163 01:04:33,440 --> 01:04:35,520 Speaker 1: got then someone trying to light it out and I 1164 01:04:35,560 --> 01:04:38,480 Speaker 1: shot it through the back end of the rib cage 1165 01:04:38,640 --> 01:04:43,520 Speaker 1: and then it expired, you know, and um, this deer, 1166 01:04:45,400 --> 01:04:47,520 Speaker 1: I know how to describe that deer kind of lower 1167 01:04:47,560 --> 01:04:50,800 Speaker 1: to the ground, very small. They call it what they 1168 01:04:50,840 --> 01:04:56,160 Speaker 1: called boss. It's like the size of a fawn. I 1169 01:04:56,200 --> 01:04:58,400 Speaker 1: feel like a white tail phone in Michigan. It does 1170 01:04:58,480 --> 01:05:00,680 Speaker 1: get shot off and during on season, I mean one 1171 01:05:00,720 --> 01:05:03,080 Speaker 1: of those deer deer you can pick up with, you know, 1172 01:05:03,200 --> 01:05:07,080 Speaker 1: one hand. But it just had a little more plumpness 1173 01:05:07,080 --> 01:05:08,880 Speaker 1: to it. So it's the size of fawn, but it 1174 01:05:08,960 --> 01:05:14,160 Speaker 1: had the fond during hunting season. I was gonna say, 1175 01:05:14,240 --> 01:05:21,000 Speaker 1: more like a newborn. No not yeah, way smaller. It 1176 01:05:21,080 --> 01:05:22,720 Speaker 1: wasn't like a little you know how you see those 1177 01:05:22,760 --> 01:05:27,800 Speaker 1: in the fall deer, like if you shot a deer 1178 01:05:28,360 --> 01:05:34,920 Speaker 1: um September twenty a white tail, not a November farm 1179 01:05:35,200 --> 01:05:40,120 Speaker 1: no way. A small deer, but robust, had a mature 1180 01:05:40,240 --> 01:05:43,280 Speaker 1: looked to it, with small reddish color, had a tail 1181 01:05:43,320 --> 01:05:46,680 Speaker 1: reminiscent of a white tail, but proportionately I felt, had 1182 01:05:46,720 --> 01:05:51,560 Speaker 1: shorter legs. Yes, definitely wasn't a leggy as our white tails. 1183 01:05:52,720 --> 01:05:57,040 Speaker 1: They dragged up the trail and I can't remember there's 1184 01:05:57,040 --> 01:05:59,240 Speaker 1: a term for a camera what it is. It's where 1185 01:05:59,280 --> 01:06:01,960 Speaker 1: you got so I learned the term in Scotland. You 1186 01:06:02,080 --> 01:06:05,560 Speaker 1: got something from the diaphragm back. So he made just 1187 01:06:05,600 --> 01:06:07,000 Speaker 1: a whole but you have to get his hand in 1188 01:06:07,520 --> 01:06:10,240 Speaker 1: and gutted everything from the diaphragm back, meaning the intestines 1189 01:06:10,280 --> 01:06:14,120 Speaker 1: in the stomach, and discarded him. Didn't hang on to him, 1190 01:06:14,360 --> 01:06:18,160 Speaker 1: cut a string from tree bark, tied it around his 1191 01:06:18,280 --> 01:06:25,120 Speaker 1: waist and around its shoulders, just behind its shoulders. Bloody 1192 01:06:25,200 --> 01:06:27,000 Speaker 1: is all get out and then throws it on his 1193 01:06:27,040 --> 01:06:32,520 Speaker 1: back and head it out. Nothing more important happening, right, Nope, 1194 01:06:32,560 --> 01:06:36,320 Speaker 1: you gotta give a visual image of Marco though, yeah, 1195 01:06:36,160 --> 01:06:40,120 Speaker 1: oh yeah, which interesting night vision of what this guy. 1196 01:06:40,280 --> 01:06:46,800 Speaker 1: We are running full long sleeves, pants and shirts, you know, 1197 01:06:47,360 --> 01:06:50,800 Speaker 1: buffs to protect our necks and not just for the sun, 1198 01:06:51,040 --> 01:06:56,760 Speaker 1: but because of of biting stinging things, bugs, and these 1199 01:06:56,840 --> 01:06:59,200 Speaker 1: boys as soon as they get on the trail at night, 1200 01:06:59,320 --> 01:07:02,000 Speaker 1: everybody just makes it shirt off and you know it's 1201 01:07:02,320 --> 01:07:06,280 Speaker 1: just and Marco has a very Bruce Lee like look, 1202 01:07:06,480 --> 01:07:10,200 Speaker 1: you know, were you one years old? Wiry cut and 1203 01:07:10,240 --> 01:07:13,680 Speaker 1: when he put that it's like it is bark basically 1204 01:07:13,840 --> 01:07:17,080 Speaker 1: takes off of the tree. It's maybe like an inch 1205 01:07:17,120 --> 01:07:20,240 Speaker 1: and a half two inches wide, ties a couple of 1206 01:07:20,480 --> 01:07:23,480 Speaker 1: slip knots in it to hold onto the deer, and 1207 01:07:23,520 --> 01:07:26,480 Speaker 1: then it's just the perfect size where the it doesn't 1208 01:07:26,480 --> 01:07:30,000 Speaker 1: go across his shoulders, but it comes over his head 1209 01:07:30,160 --> 01:07:34,000 Speaker 1: and like the strap is right across his chest, just 1210 01:07:34,080 --> 01:07:37,680 Speaker 1: above his nipples. Yeah, don't even carry duffle bags like that, 1211 01:07:38,240 --> 01:07:43,840 Speaker 1: and the belower your clavicles kind of across your shoulder. Yeah, 1212 01:07:44,000 --> 01:07:47,160 Speaker 1: And and lean into it and the deer is hanging 1213 01:07:47,200 --> 01:07:49,960 Speaker 1: basically just above the small of his back. And uh, 1214 01:07:51,480 --> 01:07:53,000 Speaker 1: that was the end of it. We knew at that 1215 01:07:53,040 --> 01:07:54,800 Speaker 1: point as the end of it. I kind of thought, well, 1216 01:07:55,120 --> 01:07:56,720 Speaker 1: from what I had heard, it was like, oh, you'll 1217 01:07:56,800 --> 01:07:58,840 Speaker 1: kill something, and then that the boys are gonna keep 1218 01:07:58,880 --> 01:08:01,520 Speaker 1: hunting because you're out there, You're gonna keep hunting. But 1219 01:08:01,560 --> 01:08:04,680 Speaker 1: what would tipped us off is that the whole way 1220 01:08:04,800 --> 01:08:06,920 Speaker 1: the next hour, the hype back to camp, it was 1221 01:08:07,000 --> 01:08:11,000 Speaker 1: constant chimani jibber jabber, and Steve and I would joke 1222 01:08:11,040 --> 01:08:12,760 Speaker 1: and it's like, you know, we think they're talking about 1223 01:08:12,800 --> 01:08:14,560 Speaker 1: hunting this, that and the other, but they're probably just 1224 01:08:14,680 --> 01:08:18,720 Speaker 1: catching up on the river. So we get back and 1225 01:08:18,840 --> 01:08:25,360 Speaker 1: that dear they they do deer totally totally different. They quartered, 1226 01:08:26,520 --> 01:08:28,320 Speaker 1: They quartered the deer and cut the head off at 1227 01:08:28,360 --> 01:08:31,760 Speaker 1: the neck, believe, all the skin on. They cooked and 1228 01:08:31,880 --> 01:08:35,320 Speaker 1: they got their smoker rack and they cooked the deer 1229 01:08:36,840 --> 01:08:40,280 Speaker 1: with the hair on it. They smoking with the hair on, 1230 01:08:40,439 --> 01:08:43,600 Speaker 1: so you just like literally cut the deer up and 1231 01:08:43,600 --> 01:08:46,280 Speaker 1: you don't pay attention about hairside down and eat side down. 1232 01:08:47,479 --> 01:08:53,040 Speaker 1: For how many hours? Too many a lot? They cooked 1233 01:08:53,040 --> 01:08:57,520 Speaker 1: it on that smoker so long that what the shanks 1234 01:08:58,280 --> 01:09:02,320 Speaker 1: wound up being like assole bookoed almost in a dryway, 1235 01:09:02,320 --> 01:09:05,559 Speaker 1: where the shank was the delicate the was the delicate part. 1236 01:09:05,920 --> 01:09:08,760 Speaker 1: They're like, here's the best part. He strips that hide 1237 01:09:08,840 --> 01:09:11,040 Speaker 1: off the shank and was pulling little pieces of meat 1238 01:09:11,080 --> 01:09:14,639 Speaker 1: out of there because there's so much gelatin in there 1239 01:09:15,040 --> 01:09:18,559 Speaker 1: that they were still kind of moist and tender. Everything 1240 01:09:18,560 --> 01:09:21,240 Speaker 1: else was just that reminded me of smoke turkey. Like 1241 01:09:21,360 --> 01:09:24,920 Speaker 1: to me that that venice and shanks tasted like smoke turkey. 1242 01:09:25,000 --> 01:09:27,280 Speaker 1: But I thought, and they'll leave it on the smoker 1243 01:09:27,320 --> 01:09:29,800 Speaker 1: and they'll pull off the smoker and it gets swarmed 1244 01:09:29,840 --> 01:09:34,320 Speaker 1: in bees in a way you wouldn't believe in general, 1245 01:09:34,360 --> 01:09:39,160 Speaker 1: all of their cutting methods, cooking methods, uh, just a 1246 01:09:39,160 --> 01:09:43,400 Speaker 1: lot rougher than what we were used to. Um. Like, 1247 01:09:43,439 --> 01:09:46,439 Speaker 1: it's like you said, they don't waste anything, but we 1248 01:09:46,560 --> 01:09:49,320 Speaker 1: also just have learned to take so much more care 1249 01:09:49,760 --> 01:09:52,639 Speaker 1: in the preparation of it all. And I'm not saying 1250 01:09:52,960 --> 01:09:56,400 Speaker 1: bacteria stample, yeah, and I'm not taking care of it, 1251 01:09:56,479 --> 01:09:59,760 Speaker 1: but like, yeah, I'll tell you what though, they cooked 1252 01:09:59,760 --> 01:10:01,840 Speaker 1: the hell everything, But that wasn't to say, well, I wasn't. 1253 01:10:02,800 --> 01:10:06,920 Speaker 1: My feeling on inflammation is is unadvertising. Is what they're 1254 01:10:06,960 --> 01:10:11,000 Speaker 1: cooking might look to an outsider. They relish it more 1255 01:10:11,080 --> 01:10:16,800 Speaker 1: than you relish your food. Yeah, they're more excited about 1256 01:10:16,840 --> 01:10:19,200 Speaker 1: than you are about your dinner tonight. One thing I 1257 01:10:19,240 --> 01:10:22,439 Speaker 1: thought was really cool was that the that night, actually 1258 01:10:22,439 --> 01:10:24,759 Speaker 1: both the night of the monkey kill and the deer killed, 1259 01:10:25,280 --> 01:10:29,040 Speaker 1: was to me almost the same exact vibe in an 1260 01:10:29,080 --> 01:10:33,760 Speaker 1: American hunting camp, where they were just absolutely celebrating at home, 1261 01:10:33,880 --> 01:10:35,960 Speaker 1: like they were just happy as ship. You know, they 1262 01:10:36,000 --> 01:10:38,719 Speaker 1: had some drinks afterwards that they were beaming. The entire 1263 01:10:38,800 --> 01:10:42,920 Speaker 1: camp was happy. Everybody huddled around that the butchering big 1264 01:10:42,960 --> 01:10:45,320 Speaker 1: as catfish too, Yeah, No, it was just it was 1265 01:10:45,360 --> 01:10:49,160 Speaker 1: just like it was a pure celebration. Everybody was retelling 1266 01:10:49,200 --> 01:10:52,240 Speaker 1: the story of Steve, you know, using the ball and 1267 01:10:52,800 --> 01:10:55,720 Speaker 1: how fast he shot this. You know, Steve's out here 1268 01:10:55,720 --> 01:10:59,880 Speaker 1: with a white carbon spider, you know, the top top, 1269 01:11:00,000 --> 01:11:02,080 Speaker 1: the best of the best, basically out there as far 1270 01:11:02,120 --> 01:11:04,720 Speaker 1: as modern compound boats. Showing these guys at boat, you 1271 01:11:04,800 --> 01:11:06,400 Speaker 1: might as well, like someone said, you might as well 1272 01:11:06,439 --> 01:11:11,400 Speaker 1: be like an alien showing them your spaceship blown away. 1273 01:11:13,200 --> 01:11:15,120 Speaker 1: It was almost like the first like what do you 1274 01:11:15,160 --> 01:11:18,760 Speaker 1: imagine it was like when the planes Indians or any 1275 01:11:18,800 --> 01:11:23,559 Speaker 1: American Indians saw a rival. It was really shot first 1276 01:11:23,600 --> 01:11:32,200 Speaker 1: shot at that six ft diameter log at tankards blown away. Man, 1277 01:11:33,040 --> 01:11:36,519 Speaker 1: this whole Bolivia trip, and we've only scratched the surface. 1278 01:11:37,280 --> 01:11:40,840 Speaker 1: We talked about one aspect of it. We're gonna turn 1279 01:11:40,880 --> 01:11:46,200 Speaker 1: into three shows, three episodes, twenty two minutes per episode. 1280 01:11:46,880 --> 01:11:49,160 Speaker 1: There's a lot of material, man. And I'll tell you 1281 01:11:49,200 --> 01:11:54,760 Speaker 1: what um coming out of it, I have not a 1282 01:11:54,880 --> 01:11:59,600 Speaker 1: change perspective, but just a really enhanced perspective where um 1283 01:11:59,640 --> 01:12:07,000 Speaker 1: it is fun and very educational and inspiring and beautiful. 1284 01:12:07,720 --> 01:12:15,400 Speaker 1: Um to spend time with indigenous peoples who have a 1285 01:12:15,479 --> 01:12:22,320 Speaker 1: lineage on the landscape that's unbroken. You know, there are 1286 01:12:22,320 --> 01:12:25,040 Speaker 1: many Western influences were with these guys that are shocked on. 1287 01:12:25,120 --> 01:12:28,160 Speaker 1: They have flashlights, but all that stuff winds up seeming 1288 01:12:28,240 --> 01:12:31,920 Speaker 1: very superficial. Um to be out with people who are 1289 01:12:32,560 --> 01:12:38,400 Speaker 1: on the land which is intact.
