About this video

Not every Tribal People Try video is about food. "The Pure Joy of Receiving a Present" is one of the science episodes: villagers from rural Punjab, Pakistan come across something new and react to it the way they react to everything — curious, blunt and funny.

About these episodes

Science experiments and demonstrations: dry ice, magnets, elephant toothpaste, liquid nitrogen, optical illusions, simple physics done on a table in the village.

What to expect

Wonder first, explanation second. The tribe ask the right questions — why does it smoke, why does it float — and the explanations, given in Punjabi, are as much the video as the experiment.

The village view

Most of the participants never finished school, and none of that dulls their curiosity. These are some of the warmest episodes on the channel.
