Well as we have learnt thanks to some resourceful posters, these animals were apparently tamed and not normal wild animals. I don't really think the parents are at fault here, this girl has probably had the most amazing childhood ever, she shares a connection with nature that not many of us here can claim to have, and I find it a very beautiful thing. Your typical mindset of fear of disconnection from nature is why we are destroying this Earth and the life on it so rapidly, we have no respect for nature and we don't know how to live within the bounds of nature, instead we forcefully change nature so that it meets our needs, almost as if we aren't a native species to this Earth...

Any one of these creatures could kill her in a matter of seconds if she does one little thing they feel threatened by.
I'm glad you all got that warm and fuzzy feeling but I see parents that need to be locked up when I watch these videos.

Not really spectacular, other than she is white.
Cool story but she is far from magical. Just a kids that grew up with animals around her.

The whole thing is staged! All these comments of the poor people (even ATS members who should know better) so eager to clasp and grasp at anything for a good feeling fix. The Movie generation!
Like she says herself it was hard work and her parents put her through a punishing schedule with juvenile, captive animals. Where is all the magic in that, lol! You people! No wonder the authorities get away with enslaving you. Walt Disney. lol! Total sycophantic dribble I'm afraid!
I did not watch the video and I think it is a bit creepy you all getting off on Tarzan white girl semi naked with animals. Hmmm!!!
And all this stuff about indigo children! Hahahaha! What a pile of new age wishy washy Walt Disney, make believe, fairy story, escapist nonsense!!!edit on 11-2-2012 by Revolution9 because: even more to say...
Errrr... she lived in tents in Africa for 10 years of her childhood, the whole thing is not staged in the way you suggest. Most of the animals may have been tamed, but some of them are still very powerful beasts with the ability to tear her apart in seconds... I would like to see you do the same thing without crapping your pants. Your negative comments and disgusting attitude are not wanted here.
The whole thing is staged!
Tippi had a nomadic upbringing, living in tented camps in the African desert.
