Why these Vietnamese have been living in the jungle for 40 years. Amazing story

Two Vietnamese residents have been living in the jungle for 40 years.

They had no contact with other people and never left their hut more than two kilometers away.

“How did this happen?” you ask.

The story of this family can touch anyone.

It began during the Vietnam War.

In 1972, the village where they lived was burned down, and their relatives died.

Ho Van Thanh, in order to save his son, made a radical decision — to hide in the jungle.

After several days of wandering, the man found a convenient place, built a hut on the trees.

So 40 years have passed. How did they live?

They ate fruits, hunted animals, found a source of fresh water.

But not once has any of them ventured back to find out how the world has changed over the decades.

They were discovered in 2013.

It turned out that the nearest village was located 40 kilometers away.

Ho Van Thanh was at an advanced age by that time and could no longer hunt and get food as before.

The son did everything.

When they were evacuated, Ho Van Thanh was so exhausted that he was unable to walk on his own — he was carried on a stretcher.

Interestingly, Ho Van Thanh forgot many words, with difficulty, but distinguished the speech of other people.

His son knew a few words and, of course, the sight of other people, their speech, clothes, life shocked him at first.

He needed time to adapt.

He was surprised by everything that was happening around him.
