The Bajau people of Southeast Asia spend their whole lives at sea, working eight-hour diving shifts with traditional equipment and short breaks to catch fish and shellfish for their families.
Bajau takes free diving to the extreme, staying underwater for as long as 13 minutes at depths of around 200 feet.
The term "Bajau" is applied to a variety of seafaring peoples whose scattered settlements extend across the South China Sea. Known variously as Badjaw, Bajau, Sama di Laut, or Bajo, they are one of three major groups of nomadic, or formerly nomadic, maritime foraging societies native to Insular Southeast Asia.

There are numerous tribes in the Amazon Rainforest that have been living and thriving off the land for centuries. These tribes have unique cultures, traditions, and languages that they are proud of preserving. Although there have been some attempts to integrate these communities into modern society, many choose to remain isolated and maintain their traditional way of lives. The Yanomami tribe is one such example which practices hunting and gathering techniques, builds homes from natural materials, and holds deep spiritual beliefs about the forest's importance to their lives. However, a major challenge facing indigenous people is deforestation caused by logging companies encroaching on their ancestral lands, which leads to a loss of habitat for wildlife and human suffering. Nonetheless, initiatives aimed at protecting these tribes' rights continue to spring up globally.
