Dancing with the Huli Wigmen

Back



This was a surprisingly not-so-difficult clip to get. I arrived in Tari, Papua New Guinea with no plans or arrangements and no idea what I was doing. I met Patrick on the runway and told him I hoped to find the Huli Wigmen. He said "no problem" and we hopped in a truck. I visited some Huli villages and wandered around the area all morning. Patrick took me to the Wigmen's village and introduced me. It took them an hour or so to get dressed up, and then we had to sit around waiting for the rain to stop. It stopped, then this happened, then I paid them for their time, and that was that.

Amazing, I bet it was a little bit frightening being there with the tribe. They never looked like they wanted to eat you? Haha. Guys, I just made my 2nd you tube creation. It would do me such a great favor if you could click on my user name and give me some advise. I want to be just as good as Matt!
