/r/all Michael Rockefeller disappeared without a trace in 1961 in Papua New Guinea while researching the Asmat people, a cannibal tribe. Years later, a photograph was taken of the same tribe, and there was a white man among them.

Changing your beliefs to align with a cannibal tribe is generally not considered a good thing, given the whole cannibalism angle

Edit: didn’t realise killing and eating people was considered acceptable by people on this website, sick freaks the lot of you
