The Bajau tribe, Indonesia, is known as the 'nomads on the sea'. The Bajau fishermen can hold their breath for 13 minutes and dive 70 meters deep. The reason for this particular ability is because the Bajau often have larger spleen than others. Even some special people have 50% larger spleen than normal people.
Scientists from the University of Cambridge explain, the spleen makes these people consume less oxygen in the water so they can dive deeper and longer than ordinary people.
Moken: Tribal eyes under water
The Moken is also a sea tribe, living in western Thailand. The tribe with a healthy honey skin possesses very keen eyes when it comes to water. Specifically, the Moken babies can clearly see an object a few meters away from the water environment.

Anna Gislen, a scientist from Lund University (Sweden) came here to study and live. According to Anna Gislen, the Moken tribe's children have excellent eyesight, a vision that is two times better than that of European children. Children can catch oysters, bottles, sea cucumbers even at a depth of 3.4 m and can identify small objects 1.5 mm.
However, tribal adults do not have this ability. Although it has been heavily researched, scientists have yet to come up with the correct answer.

Hmong: People who communicate in flute
The Hmong in China live at the foot of the Himalayas at a distance far away from each other so they came and communicated with each other through the flute. The lovers have sent their hearts into the flute to express. But the flute could not be clearly defined as a human voice so it was also very confusing. Whistling for a special confession is very suitable for those who want to hide themselves when expressing to the enemy.
