all right so after a six and a half hour  van ride we have made it to the place   with all the stuff where we are about  to do the thing i'm tired okay let's go i'm gonna make it hello yeah we're here i tell you what guys i just want to be honest the  six and a half hour drive to the longhouse had me   wondering what's longer the drive or the house  but one hour in that boat and i am rejuvenated   refreshed and re-vitalized so the lake is actually  a man-made lake which is why visually it sort of   reminds me of lake kenya in taranganu but it's  like lake kenya in a jungle so what's amazing   is there are something like 10 or 15 longhouses  on the lake and so i sort of assumed that each   long house came together in some sort  of village situation but in reality   each long house is a village so the entire concept  of these long houses are you put dozens and dozens   if not hundreds and hundreds of families together  and they all live under one roof so that if any   enemy tribes come head hunting or starting war  you don't have to go fetch your soldiers because   they're all already right here now to be clear  ivan and i are not deep in the borneo jungle   and we are not going to be part of any tribal  warfare because this is a tourist attraction but   the culture and the tradition still lives on so  this particular longhouse has a chief hopefully   who we can meet as well as it is the site of a  long house for uh a long long time it's not just   a tourist attraction it is a legitimate long house  that has been converted into a tourist attraction   so with that let's go check in to  our room and see what we can see   at the ebon longhouse i am super duper excited  for this super duper excited super cool oh my gosh i'm like exactly exactly the ibon longhouse  ebon longhouse let's go see what's inside oh yeah smoke fish smoked fish looks  good actually look yeah it looks good hello so careful don't fall through  the floor first things bruce   uh this whole structure here is the  long house you can see how long it   is and this is just our viewpoint from  here so uh quite literally a long house and so the key phrase oh artwork  maybe even souvenirs for sale nice right yeah very nice spears slow torch you made it oh rebel good job great job so guys the key phrase in the longhouse  is barapa pintu which means how many doors   because each door has is indicates a new family  so in this particular longhouse it's 37. so 37   families here would mean hundreds and hundreds of  people i would have to say the list of family ah   uh sorry 36. i asked the guide he might have  accidentally exaggerated by one 36 families   so in total there are 161 people   is it right from 2020. so might be more now 161  people in 36 families this is something special no problem no problem when  i was that age i was shy too hello the best wow they're so welcoming the best this  is something special this is something special   this is something special man mind blown already  yeah yeah right already like so much hola hello   i'm saying all that for looking  i feel like i'm in spain welcome hello welcome thank you what's your  name my name is lupus group okay are you the   chief no you're the chief what are you chief uh  i come from spaya awesome okay you have tattoos   yes you make yourself no no no my friend okay we  see you thank you okay thank you thank you boom   nice guy the best so uh important to note  that 36 families legitimately live here   this is not a tourist attraction this is  not built for uh people who spend money and   come family like they're cooking they're living  here this is where they live they're doing well   i guess i'm saying hola but uh anyway so this  is as authentic as it can get i would say   as authentic as you're gonna find we're  staying at the last house right here   the last one so oh that's why they said that  that's why they said barapa pinta 37 yeah   because one door is for the tourists 36 families  and the 37th one is for the tourists right right   catfish okay let's uh let's check out our  room uh i was told left side is for me   this would be our other friends everybody  checking in feels good it feels hot right   good they're good it's right she's right  she's right so we'll stay here tonight   absolutely great hello the best  all right let's uh let's see what   this experience has in store for us  not sure what we're gonna do today but   already five star let's be clear six star must  do in sarawak okay let's see where we go next canada canada oh what what you  smoke

three guys right now one third time same thing okay fighting dancing dancing oh oh is do you remember in serbia we had breccia forty  percent that was three hundred dollars a bottle   and it was so good this is as good as that there's  no weight it's 40 this is no way if it's 40 then   these guys are sitting on a gold mine this is  unbelievably smooth unbelievably smooth wait wait   i think that's what you need it's not it's twenty percent so smooth so from  here distilled into that hold on seventy-one is what an indictment of the modern way what an  indictment of the modern diet and the modern   sit on a computer all day this dude is 71. he's ripped and his hair is fresh and black and  full i'm i'm chubby and bald this dude is 71.   yes i need to get on a treadmill our friend would  say he's really 71 years old because they eat bro give me this i got to get younger i got to go   younger i got to get younger that's  what i would you know what's wrong okay guys it's time for dinner  although huge shout out to   those guys the most welcoming  friendliest people i ever met   and they said they thought i was a professional  football player because of my jersey i showed them the name on the backside pool i  said it's my malay name and i said i need to   have an e-bond name yeah so hopefully by the  end of the video i will have an e-bond name   if not that will be the work of the comment  section but uh shout out to those guys and   can you believe that guy's 71 years old looks  like he's 51 or maybe 41. organic food which   we're about to eat i think so let's go eat some  organic food and uh and decrease my boldness   decrease my aging with the organic food let's go  maybe you'll grow hair oh no you look good vault let's go my favorite burns love it let's eat these are  straight up stephen them foods are steaming boys which i believe is this fella here in the blue cheers the people that lives in the  longhouse we are gathering   here together sitting in a circle  and someone is playing music now oh wow somehow i got the hat i don't even  know how it happened 71 years old so that was really really something  special and we really loved it   although my feeling is those boys are going to  party all night long yeah and so our idea was to   sneak away as the ending ceremonies  of the dance party was going   they're still going to dance all night listen at  one point our tour guide kevin who you met earlier   he was dancing and then after that i don't  even know what happened but hey buddy okay okay but then after that all of a sudden  i was wearing a hat and i was dancing   one thing leads to another in a long house  that's true that's what we learned about   i think it never ends i think it might be a long  night in a long house especially after we say oh   how which i learned is to call the spirit to bless  them with good harvest and to party with them   basically oh so cheers actually means uh  calling the dead or calling the spirits to   enjoy the party with the the live people to  bless the party boom there you have it guys   so right now we are heading down the dark  dark hallway of the longhouse back to our room   uh we do have another video coming tomorrow from  the longhouse we will be doing a jungle trek and   also meeting more people and talking to them yes  this it seems like if you come here the experience   is rich because of the people yeah so we will be  meeting more people yes so we have been to a long   house before in sabah but it's this experience  here in sarawak is completely different here   in the iban longhouse because people actually  lives here this is a community this is a whole   village right here exactly the one we did  in sabo was more of a tourist attraction   this one is a legitimate longhouse where they have  also added a tourist attraction in the long house   anyway my point is this check out our video log  coming in a few days because we will have another   vlog coming as we walk in the dark uh from the  long house shout out to everybody here who's very   friendly we literally had to sneak away because  they were like hey later we drink later we drink   i'm like and i'm like bro man i'm already been  drinking i'm i'm good i'm good for the night   so home like in one piece here this this  feels like we're walking one kilometer   outside of the house and we're still inside  the house we didn't leave our house and yet   we're too drunk to get home you know this  is a long house it's pretty long oh my god   all right we'll see you guys in the next vlog  thanks for watching shout out to uh everybody   here to the iban longhouse thank you very  special all right see you guys in the next vlog alright everybody good night thanks for watching  night night i wonder if this mosquito net is just   for tourists or do the locals sleep with  this too uh i would guess that locals do   not have this this looks very touristy i'm  not complaining i'm glad they have it right   i think the locals are out there right in  the uh in the open all right night night
