lol. He was basically there to loot and exploit 🤣🤣🤣
A little to much praise for this bad guy 😂
Those tusks are reason enough to forget this guy from history.
Africa is the size of USA, china, India, entire western Europe and Argentina put together. exploring an average size country is like exploring 2 France or an entire Ukraine all ALONE. to live with deadly insects, meet strange reptiles, think jungles, cross rivers, hostile tribes, hot weather, eating different Food, without much weapons is quite brave I feel.
Wow, look at the size of those tusks. That poor elephant was slaughtered for his tusks and the killing still goes on today.
Wait. There are some idiots who say that it was already discovered (Africa) by the people who inhabited it, ..but they were not tribes of the stone age?, did not they have the same level of ignorance with respect to the land that they inhabited that the animals they hunted? How can tribes savages with a knowledge that does not exceed their field of vision discover something that they didn't even knew existed (a continent)?
Luv the new knowledge.
The world changed for the worst,GG
Cool (sorry for bad english)
First American from where…?
if there was 3 tribes already there when this guy arrived then clearly this part of Africa had already been explored….
Would be way cooler if the elephant tusks were on the elephant when they took the pictures.
he was just a dumb white guy
he isn't american the only americans are us native americans not you whites and black people
He's not American he's a European
There's a bunch of dudes who looks like this drinking craft beer down the street from me.
Fuck this propaganda shit
"first white man to explore the Congo"
Let's stop celebrating these garbage humans.
It baffles me that the term "white man" was used once in a 4 minute video and it's some how turned into a race thing
Thank you for killing that elephant…smh
"bringing back artifacts that are held today at the Museum of Natural History in Los Angeles, one of the biggest collections of its kind in the United States". So we are supposed to celebrate a thief, great!
Penetrating deep into the steaming jungles of the Dark Continent.
that settles it: national geographic is a white supremist organization too! how dare you assholes uphold this murderer, thief and racist as some kind of hero. asshole racists.
not sure why you want to celebrate taking part in the destruction of a place. no ones talking about the destruction caused by people like him "exploring" Africa.
lol why would u even explore africa
Go watch Dr James David Manning talk about how Africans hasn't built a enduring city in 3000 years. Africans should thank europeans for colonizing Africa, bringing infrastructure, laws etc. The 2 best cities in Africa to live in is Cape Town and Johannesburg both built by white europeans and inhabited largely by white people. Stop denying the truth.
FUCK CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS
Africans should practice voodoo again and take back their resources
fuck him ….stay outta our lands all they do is cause more problems shit
heart of darkness…. that's racist
I unsubscribed because the trailer music at the end of your videos is too loud and I hate to bother my neighbors. Thanks.
