- In the 1960's the people of West Papua were given the Vote of Free Choice by the UN. The West Papuan people call it the "Vote of no choice!" The Indonesian Military were allowed to assemble approximately 1000 representatives of the 800,000 West Papuan adults and inter them in a concentration camp for weeks prior to the UN officials turning up to take a vote by raising hands. Over half of the people present did not speak Indonesian but this did not affect the outcome of the vote because what was understood was that nay person not raising their hand would cause the military to execute their entire clan. West Papua then became a state of Indonesia. Since then over 500,000 West Papuans have been killed or disappeared for asserting their human rights.

- This time Bruce wants a taste of life with the Kombai, a Papuan tribe. They are so remote it proves an adventure in itself, even with a local guide, just to find and approach them in the vast, largely unspoiled forests of New Guinea. The men go naked except for a penis-cover, which is applied after a bewildering penis-inversion, and go on long hunting and gathering trips. They live in dizzying high, self-made tree houses, once a useful protection against headhunters from the south. In their tradition, cannibalism is practiced only as ultimate punishment for khakhua-kuma, evil human 'soul-eaters'. There is no metal, all tools are still made from wood and stone. Their staple food is sago, to Bruce's Western taste inedibly dry but easily available in the wood, leaving them lots of spare time. The favorite food are wild pigs and, for special celebrations, bred pigs; as delicious as those taste to the Westerner, so disgusting seems their smaller treat, fattened grubs, a smaller kind is put in the ear to eat the wax.
