Ruhi Çenet ventured to near Lake Eyasi in Northern Tanzania with a guide and translator where he met with members of the Hadza tribe.

He explains in a YouTube documentary detailing his trip, that the Hadza people 'survive by hunting their food with bows and arrows just like our ancestors did thousands of years ago deep into the wild savannah.' Some of the animals they hunt for food, Ruhi says, include rock hyrax, squirrels, antelopes, and baboons, and to wash it down, they drink 'muddy water,' as their 'immune system is strong enough to deal with the bacteria and parasites.' Along with a unique diet, Ruhi reveals that the Hadza people speak a complex language called Hadzane which combines spoken words with clicking noises.
