The Bajau Tribe – People Who Live Underwater
http://youtu.be/YJBI94LWl58
The Bajau tribe, often called "sea nomads," are an indigenous group in Southeast Asia known for their incredible ability to live on the water. They spend most of their lives on boats and have adapted to free diving, holding their breath underwater for minutes at a time while hunting for fish. Their bodies have evolved with larger spleens to store more oxygen, making them natural-born divers. Many Bajau can dive up to 200 feet deep without any equipment. Though modern times have seen changes, they still hold a deep connection to the sea, living in stilt houses or houseboats.
