    In this age of modern technology with the whole world linked as one this is absolutely amazing, just when you think nothing else can be discovered something is! If these people have survived this long without modern intervention then for God sake leave them be.

    Just a matter of time before some irresponsible anthropologists go and study them claiming that they will try and have minimal impact on their way of life. It's never worked before but there's no sense in not trying again so that they can get a paper published or a story on Discovery.

    I get the feeling that 10 more choppers have went over the spot probably by now just to rubberneck. I feel bad for this group of people as their way of life is likely coming to an end in due time, and changes will definitely occur.

    These guys have been tracking these people for 20 years according to what I read. So who knows when those photos were taken. For sure these folks have encountered it before, which is why they are hostile. That's just an opinion

    As a former T-Conian myself, I find that...

    I seriously doubt this is the first time they've seen something mechanical fly over them. Maybe the first something has flown over them this *low*, however.

    I thought the same - someone will look to make an "educational tv show" about researching them and then it will all be over.

    At first - the secluded location, odd looking people, holding weapons up to the media - I thought it was a Tory cabinet meeting ;-)
