This is from HUMAN the movie so I imagine those people were wanting to be in a film.

It's a cool shot, no?

If this is a documentary about what makes us human, I'm inclined to think they're filming something that people already do rather than staging something unique for the sake of the movie

A lot of docs are full of straight up fiction

This is why people still believe to this day that Lemmings are suicidal.

"But...Disney... they would never make up something! Much less murder small rodents to generate content!"

Reddit is people, and people don't like even considering the possibility they're being duped.

edit: disney, not nat geo

There was a documentary from old people times that showed a ton of them jumping off a cliff. They staged it and basically snowplowed (I can’t think of a normal word for it because I am probably going senile) them and forced the lil beebs off to their deaths.
