      IMO his minimalistic approach is what is most important when documenting these rare indigenous cultures as I feel like 1-2 guys a gopro type camera and mic is all that's needed to get content as to not be so invasive yet maintaining quality...

      From 0:22 onward, and even before that🤣, he keeps talking about how deadly they are, and dystopian, as some of the most dramatic music ever, fades in. It's all throughout this video, and it works as long as it flies under your awareness... Vut, this would be much less exciting without all the added drama. There are definitely documentary-ish moments between the martial music.
      It's a comedy, too... he said the town was having a hornet problem, then they traced it back to their oen hornets... And when they taped his gloves on, "Wow that's tight, I barely can feel my hands!" For sure, there's extra dramedy added, for the viewing pleasure.

    I’m Mizo from Mizoram, a state in Northeast India and we have a lot of cultural similarities with the Hmong. These wasp larvae are a delicacy here as well and we simply boil them or deep fry them. They’re rich in protein and they’re really good when paired with white rice. These nests are still sold in local markets here in the city but the price has skyrocketed through the years since they’ve become quite rare to find.
    Thankyou for bringing such interesting, informative and well detailed videos for us to watch!! I hope you visit this part of India very soon as well. Keep up the good work!

      No wonder usa lose vietnam war because american doesn't know what is Vietnamese. Expand for living. Nowaways they try to take over 8 provinces from loas and cambodia for their population under name economy like the past take over champa, and also most part of cambodia and laos.
