Narrator:
They live in the vastness of the Kalahari in small family groups. One family of Bushmen might meet up with another once in a few years, but for the most part they live in complete isolation, quite unaware that there are other people in the world. In the deep Kalahari, there are Bushmen who have never seen or heard of civilized man.

They live in the vastness
of the Kalahari
00:00:03.359 --> 00:00:05.394
in small family groups.
00:00:05.394 --> 00:00:07.896
One family of Bushmen might
meet up with another family
00:00:07.896 --> 00:00:10.298
once in a few years,
but for the most part,
00:00:10.298 --> 00:00:12.000
they live
in complete isolation,
00:00:12.000 --> 00:00:15.837
quite unaware that there are
other people in the world.
00:00:15.837 --> 00:00:18.206
In the deep Kalahari,
there are Bushmen
00:00:18.206 --> 00:00:21.051
who have never seen
or heard of civilized man.
00:00:21.051 --> 00:00:23.445
Sometimes they hear
a thundering sound
00:00:23.445 --> 00:00:25.414
when there are no clouds
in the sky,
00:00:25.414 --> 00:00:27.716
and they assume the gods
have eaten too much again,
00:00:27.716 --> 00:00:30.686
and their tummies
are rumbling up there.
00:00:30.686 --> 00:00:32.032
Sometimes, they can even
see the evidence
00:00:32.032 --> 00:00:34.956
of the gods' flatulence.
00:00:34.956 --> 00:00:37.926
Their language has
an idiosyncrasy of its own.
00:00:37.926 --> 00:00:42.033
It seems to consist
mainly of clicking sounds.
00:00:47.403 --> 00:00:49.237
They're very gentle people.
00:00:49.237 --> 00:00:52.073
They'll never punish a child
or even speak harshly to it,
00:00:52.073 --> 00:00:54.976
so, of course, those kids
are extremely well-behaved,
00:00:54.976 --> 00:00:58.414
and their games are cute
and inventive.
00:01:07.255 --> 00:01:09.925
When the family needs meat,
the hunter dips his tiny arrow
00:01:09.925 --> 00:01:11.999
in a brew that acts
as a tranquilizer,
00:01:11.999 --> 00:01:14.999
so when he shoots a buck,
it only feels a sting,
