Home of the world renowned land diving whitch is called "Nagol" by the locals. Landiving is a right of passage for young boys. The ritual involves stripping a tall tree of it's surrounding branches and building a tower of sticks to support the trunk. The platform is made of wood and covered with leaves purposely to protect the platform from the sun drying it out before the ceremony. The leaves are removed by the jumper before the jump. The liana vines which are tied to the ankle are very elastic following the wet season, are shredded and the other end tied to the tower. Then the jumper leaps and hopes that his vine isn't to long, or doesn't break. No picture can capture the feel of dozens of villagers dancing and stomping the earth during the entire ceremony. No words can express the awe of sitting beneath the tower and listening to the diver's last words.
