Mykhailo Viktorovych Polyakov, 24, set foot on the restricted territory of North Sentinel – part of India’s Andaman Islands – in an attempt to meet the Sentinelese people, who are believed to number only about 150.
“The American citizen was presented before the local court after his arrest and is now on a three-day remand for further interrogation,” the Andaman and Nicobar Islands police chief, HGS Dhaliwal, told AFP.
It’s always the idiots that try stunts like this, and no small amount of them come from the US.
Imagine having no knowledge of the outside world, then you stumble upon a ghost saying, “But first I wanna thank my sponsor; Raid: Shadow Legends!”

He apparently wasn’t planning on staying but still a moronic move.
Alright, I’m going to say it out loud, despite the risk of this being counted as uncivil (via Rule 1) 🤞 🤞
These imbeciles don’t need stern lectures, fines, or jail - they need livestreamed floggings to humiliate or even cripple them. Hundreds of millions should see, record, archive, and openly mock their distress publicly as a stark reminder of the stakes involved.
The Sentinelese are a genetic sub-group so isolated, and so unique that their loss would be incalculable. They’re a living, breathing, irreplaceable time capsule of human culture and genetic information, and the thought that some thrill-seeking wanker could decimate them by passing the common cold to one of their members is beyond worrisome - it’s enraging. As lucky as we were that the last worthless dick-beater - American Evangelical missionary, John Allen Chau - to make their way to the island was summarily killed, that luck may not hold out. We’re talking about a group whose immunity is such a throwback that something like Chickenpox, Rubella, or Influenza could decimate the island’s population. For next-nearest historical comparison, Smallpox, to which the inhabitants of North America had virtually no resistance due to longstanding geographic isolation from infection, is estimated to have killed 90% of the continent’s population via European contact.
Americans continue to prove how abjectly stupid they are.
I really hope the rest of the world is genuinely done putting up with our horseshit.
As far as I’m concerned that’s attempted murder on his part
and recorded a video before returning to his boat
Did it for clout.
What a prick.
Either he’s never heard of John Chau or he’s trying to become the next John Chau.
If true then good.

Risks his life for 500 subs.
You don’t even need to look further than the guy’s username to get the sense that he’s an obnoxious little prick.

Quoting a line from Firefly describing what happens when you get attacked by Reavers? That’s a paddlin’.
The Sentinelese people are not known to practice cannibalism, or flaying.
Your comment doesn’t make the American idiot look worse. It makes the Sentinelese sound awful.
One previous idiot was killed by unknown means, likely an arrow or spear then this happened.
The fishermen later saw the islanders dragging Chau’s body and the next day they saw his body being buried on the shore
I’m learning new stuff every day.
I was wrong and I found out today that they don’t eat people, but they do kill people. Still though, best not to go to places like that.
I apologize for being incredibly offensive, and won’t do any dirty deletes.
But they might have caught some disease of him and died. We have to keep up food safety standards for these guys.
