dr erik jennings from sun to read is considered one of the best neurosurgeons in brazil. by the way this man with no clothes isn't dr jennings he's a member of the indigenous zoe tribe who's helping the don't of put together a personal archive. this is dr jennings people here know him simply as dr eric he's rich famous some always on the move sailing yachts and flying aircraft a little like mammals dr strange but with a full set of working fingers this footage is unique because the zoe tribal lands are normally off limits to the public carrick's allowed in because he's the zoe's

personal doctor. in. the. santa room in the north of brazil was founded as an amazon jungle bought it 1st exported spices then cocoa later rubber before turning to cocoa again today it specializes in gold book sides and saw way the latter is now a major reason behind the deforestation of the amazon. for these reasons santorum has become a symbol of economic conquest and environmental destruction locals even compose ballads about it. no barriers 2 to go. no learning english because all those out there. i mean we've got. him back out it up.

not sound i think we. need it some of that good. news that could you just. sit. there must be are. not going. to be. you're going to get one of them from you didn't share your bidding will think you got going to. continue wars or once they back. even i'm going to look at you and then you keep going to get up bash got to come up all i'm going to have a sniper moment hold me. a. disease boats up the river people's main mode of transport son to ram is

a hub for the inhabitants of the many remote villages scattered along the banks of the amazon and its hundreds of tributaries. people travel here for medical assistance groceries household goods and official documents such as some death certificates that said there is no passenger terminal in santa rem only a congo one. being here you can't avoid feeling that the amazon belongs to everyone except the locals to capital the government is even planning to construct a hydroelectric power station nearby. and what they have been asking you know what there could be one major john moxley and one of us i have. been fascinated by making lots of them in order for us is women who we know dine you going to find with the market i think actually diplomats i think i've been in all of them will make we're all going to. make you mad. what do you have to be allowed to build

up on the most programmers bases you feel now that god l. warming. battle to get what. i could get. it's just another day for dr eric. in his department in central and federal hospital where he puts on a small must a class on how to wash your hands properly this rule this. will force you every. wrinkle and. he is the don't as patient today. he'll be performing open brain surgery while other surgeons are removing part of the patient's skull don't erika's time for

a simple of procedure. it seems he has a little while longer to wait. on my wrist if. i need to save my time intraparty my talking to him tomorrow. doing down every time he says the same doing so many things at the same time but very nice and very like. finally it's don't to erick's to. feel. spend

a few hours in this position this time is to clip an aneurysm to prevent blood from flowing to an attenuated free wall in the brain. using the microscope humus kathleen find his way to the aneurysm and seal it with a suitably sized clip. any false move could lead to brain damage or death. it's a routine procedure for a neurosurgeon. to shoot this well i think if we could to help this man go. on like him i want to paint that as intrusion you came along it was wipe it out did you did not watch was going on bobby's. don't know most of them might want. to be in mind it's not good that won't andrea the show you think would die did you

see. this moment of. their own numerous programs that enable don't provide medical assistance to remote riverbank communities mostly indigenous tribes. or in case of emergency for example they had nothing to do just. like the people in the small boat and going don't reaver going to afford some some help and from here to somebody and on small boats to do you think so rolled $800.00 or to community. up river it's even longer. for example every couple of months these guys travel up the tributaries of the topologist river it's an exotic trip for a recently qualified don't see an important opportunity for the. nickols to benefit

from timely medical attention. all day the professional most of them around the doctors in juniors and everybody they are all volunteers and no one receives anything for the work they do the money come from people for example. we have a several airline kept those who donate their all money for us to buy the fuel for the boulder to buy material for of for the work here so. you sterile for waiting for someone to do something we decide to come and do it ourselves. some travel as part of a group some independently what's notable is that it's become a tradition it's for this reason that many really don't as have become boat captains and even pilots.

now. ericsson's us with the amazon rain forest has been turned into soybean fields. that you feel. to respect if. we don't have it we thought you decided to try not much. and. once in 2003 eric was called on to give in the agency treatment to assume he tries woman suffering from a brain injury. he borrowed a plane from a friend and immediately flew to the rescue there was a small field hospital and a landing strip and into the zone a try. however the flight was illegal and made eric's risk.

to the woman to the hospital operated and flew her back 2 days later in so doing he became a personal doctor. today they are a model for the brazilian government's approach to tribal people the situation was very different in the late eighty's however when their very existence was threatened. after a visit from missionaries caused half the tribe to die from viral infections the state took them under its protection. the main ritual in this life involves piercing the lower lip. a ceremony carried out once children who develop their adult teeth. the piercing is made with a mechanic's leg. which is then left in the liver for some time. later it's replaced with an embed port plug an adornment made of potoroo wood.

healthwise the plugs are problematic as they all to the shape of the jaw and cause issues with nutrition. nothing personal is known about the sacred meaning of the m.b.a. . simply say that it's beautiful. to consider themselves dressed in their normal environment and then wrap their private parts in a palm leaf. this counts as clothing without which they would feel uncomfortable and embarrassed to go to. the jenning's family has always striven to maintain their connection to nature its traditional unease parts to go to the swamp with a hammock to swing around for a few days among the venomous snakes and spiders this attitude to the environ. has

been passed down the generations eric even decided to build his house close to the jungle. so here we go to my. wedding. to start because this is my. youngest we're all the that's going to build it today. too. to use the roof of it my family. came from. the jennings a local aristocracy and sisters who were confederates who lost the american civil war. roughly 200 american families came to center him back then although of the 233 remain. all 3 took favorably to marrying the local people on the amazon has gradually washed away their confederate

forestation a somewhat vague a lumberjacks interpret them as they see fit cutting down only 20 trees is enough to change the ecosystem within a radius of a few kilometers. ready the chief is now showing us his fishing gear. and. all. the venomous snake bites and one of the main local health concern is speed of response is vital but the locals boats of such low powered engines. it takes them about 12 hours to reach sounds around. the local healer's supply are boiled into the bite to buy some time. ready ready then it's what medicine is like here. i go around no i broke or in my fear what they fear that the. don't offer up

well. gentlemen you have to know one thing when henry ford built a town in the middle of the amazon and. he made 3 big mistakes here for beating women alcohol and soccer if you want to become an enemy of a brazilian man or even the brazilian woman you just for me this 3 thing and you will have the greatest problem when the world. food bill is so important in brazil . sometimes people from all social classes any a social layer actually know each other and surprisingly. that you can see people canceling business meetings just to go and meet dear friends they played soccer with in beer childhood so today they're still meeting like that and sometimes they

remember some person just because they played soccer with their father or someone and it helps sometimes to build their own career actually. looks like eric is not in his best save. you think about it this man was 10 hours ago he was. one and then you're a year old. surgery. erik receives an urgent call from the hospital an elderly man from the zoe tribe has a long problem. he will be deployed you lose your story because since you've. a woman who is. there in what is now i would fix it but. you know the 2nd look at.
