What is the most dangerous place in the world ??

North Sentinel Island, India, Andaman Islands

North Sentinel Island is a small cute looking island right? Wrong, it is part of India but no Indian or any other civilized human has ever gone there and lived. It is home to the sentinelese people who are probably the most primitive and dangerous tribe out there. They are completely isololated from the world, they dont have a clue what  metal is and they have such a primitive immune system adapted exclusively to their island that a simple cough might kill them. It is so dangerous because of the aggresiveness of the people towards foreigners and it is officially illegal to go within a 20km radius of it. During the peak of the British colonies, the English tried to conquer North Sentinel Island in a peculiar non-violent way. They took 6 people from the island (4 children and 2 adults/elders) and brought them to England to show them how great it was so they too, if they gave them their island, could be a part of it. Unfortunately they died of a cold. And when the English came back to give them the bodies, the Sentinelese People angrily killed them. They have never forgotten this after 300 years and still loathe everything outside their island. When two fishermen were fishing around the Andaman islands they got drunk. This led to them falling asleep and the boat drifting away. It drifted away to North Sentinel Island where they were brutally murdered by the people. The Indian goverment sent a helicopter to retrieve their bodies but failed since the Sentinelese people started SHOOTING ARROWS at the helicopter. That is the most dangerous place in the world.

 

 However, one of the most important reasons people are prohibited from  going near the island is to protect the sentinelese people. They number less than two hundred and if someone from the outside world were to accidentally sneeze on them then the entire tribe could be wiped out. They have no immunity to most of the diseases from the outside world  because they have had no contact with anyone from off the island.

 They are still completely in the primitive state they were thousands of years ago with no knowledge of the progress or technological advancement that has occurred all around them. They are protected because, as they are now, so once were we. They  are a window into the human past and of great interest to anthropologists and the scientific community.

But don't make any plans to vacation there .... Just saying.
