Oh, Oh, What are they doing?

-
Unfortunately, the media only shows the bad side the different side.
-
For example, this'll video on YouTube with one million views.
-
Ah, bunch of people screaming in the desert with swords s.
-
That's what comes to mind.
-
That's what the media shows that is people's perceptions off Arabs.
-
But what is the reality?
-
To answer that question?
-
Steve and I are flying to see that tribe in person.
-
Turns out they live in the mountains off the Emirates, Onley a short flight away way blue over the mountains and landed here.

Al Shaykh tribe that lives in the mountains and these are my brothers.
-
Welcome.
-
Now what you just saw is a very old tradition.
-
They used the screaming, the weapons.
-
Three.
-
Yale's as a battle cry.
-
They used it to intimidate the enemy.
-
That's what it was used for, and that's what they're keeping alive in this culture.
-
These are very old tribal traditions, but don't let the old traditions confuse the image about Arabs.
-
Now in 2020 this tribe is as modern as it gets.
-
They live in beautiful houses by the mountainside.
-
They drive very nice cars.
-
They have very normal day jobs.
-
And, you know, some of them are skipping meat to become vegetarian.

Cerojano.

Nobody.

The music is in their soul.
-
You know, this'll is a beautiful experience that we think everyone should come and see.
-
No one is shooting anything.
-
Everyone is friendly and everyone is happy on that.
-
My friends is the point of this video because what you may think of as Arabs as scary.
-
It's not true.
-
We are very much the same.
-
We are peace loving, happiness, seeking success seeking people.
-
And that's what this video is all about to show you what I've come to learn for myself.
-
That this is a wonderful place and you should come see it for yourself.
-
People are people and they're just like us, but with slightly different beliefs, slightly different looks, slightly different traditions.
-
But deep down inside, they're all the same.
-
This isn't just Arabs.
-
This is all cultures and races off the world.
-
It is time we appreciate the different and celebrate it.
