Brazilian Tribes Bury Children Alive

A rare documentary insight into how tribal superstition, ritual and ignorance evolved into worship.

An elder of a primitive Stone-Age Amazon tribe performs a sacrificial ritual rooted in tradition. A child is unwanted and is burried alive.

"He must die! For the good of the tribe!"

This is such a horrible practice. It is unfortunate that these tribes don't know anything about life and that these ways are man made decisions to better situations. I don't understand why such a rich country like ours don't take the time or money to reach out to these tribes and show them a better way. Money is wasted on so much nonesense and garbage in this life time. It is not wonder why GOD will finally put an end to it. The good news is that those innocent children are in a better place then to be stuck with such ignorant families and tribes. May God Reach Out Somehow through someone that can make a change. I imagine while we are sleeping in our comfy beds and homes here in the States, there is a child being buried alive. God Help Us All.

All of us viewing this material should be held accountable for not doing something more about this. How ignorant these tribes are and it's simply our fault for not reaching out so who suffers? The Children. Well in a sense it's good that they are no longer living with these tribes. God has a better place for them. The fear of the final moments is so horrible but God Help Them and HAVE Mercy on THEM. This world is so rich and just loves to THROW money away into so much NONSENSE. Why not FUND an ORGANIZATION that WILL SHOW THESE People a BETTER WAY TODAY! While we sleep a child is buried ALIVE! SHAME ON US, SHAME ON YOU ALL!

There are no gods. They are all imaginary.

If you do not like it, do something. What really is wrong are people not acting but praying to fairy tale figures.

i dont think its our right to stop them from doing this i mean you say that your way is the right way and that there wrong in burrying children alive the truth is theres no such thing as right and wrong. these people have been following these rituals for thousands of years and i dont think its up to anyone to tell them there wrong just like its not right for them to tell you your wrong.

You're a fucking retard. There's no such thing as right or wrong, so therefore it's wrong to tell them what to do? I hope you die for being such a fucking retard. Do you not see the self-defeating logic there? If there's no such thing as right or wrong, then IT CAN'T BE WRONG TO TELL THEM WHAT TO DO ASSHOLE.

This video is not a real documentary, but an inaccurate, propaganda film made by a religious group who want government bans on infanticide as well as other harmful practices rumored to take place in some Amazoniantribes. Problems with law enforcement in these tribes are due to noble efforts in helping preserve tribal culture, therefore preventing interference.

While their cause sounds benevolent, it is a deceitful cloak- existence of tribal infanticide is actually unclear since no reliable sources make claim of its present day practice. Based on evidence it is most likely not a tradition, nor is it a norm. As with all cultures, there are probably isolated cases.

Due to the film's inaccurate depiction, it is apparent that the religious group's agenda go beyond banning infanticide and domestic abuses, but enter the sphere of supremacy. It is the same agenda as the colonial missionaries', they want to assume power over, and convert tribes to the "right way" of life. Their victory could mean the end of a rare and ancient culture.

Please do not believe everything you see! It could hurt someone; it could hurt thousands!

Oh God.. I had to stop watching that video midway. My blood just ran cold because I have two boys the ages of the children I saw them dump into that hole. I want to do something but I don't know what I can do. This has to stop! How could somebody just film this and not do anything????

As above what RACHEL had said,
if possible, please tell me where you get those information that this story is fake? As majority of the people believe this and want to do something to help. If it's fake, why does someone wants to make an effort to film this for? Or is there anyone who can ans my question? Is this 'Bury Children' thing real or not? If it is real, I want to search and do something to help.

That is the most disturbing thing I have ever seen. I have an 8 month old son so to see that tribe bury a child alive is very upsetting. That is murder. No matter how you look at it, it is cold blooded murder. We are a civilized world and that sort of thing should be investigated and someone should be held accountable. I understand these tribes are remote but thats no excuse. I wish I had the means to stop this from happening. UNBELIEVABLE!!! SHAME ON US FOR LETTING THIS HAPPEN
