I believe that is the same village that lilmo came from. 

This must be the village that Demarara guy lives in. He is still to learn about evolution. This is a Trump fake story.

Engaging with profound lies and distortions seems to be your focus.

On my retirement in Guyana, I have to practice to walk on all four and learn to eat grass like donkey under Granger. Lol. DG and I will graze in green pasture. Lol.

Demerara Guy, this story may be a distortion.  Can't you see that the family may be mentally disabled because they are the children of two cousins that may be the main reason why they walk on both hands and feet? 

The Middle East has a known Practice of marrying cousins (Yuck). The video clearly stated that they suspected that it was as a result of that. 

In our culture, first cousins are like brothers and sisters.

In Lebanon, everyone is a cousin. In Saudi Arabia, Prince Bandar is married to his cousin.

So the Prince married his sister ? Very sick. 

In most muslim countries, they marry cousins. Also Royalty marry cousins. So they have the same genes circulating through generations. Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip are second cousins, that's why Charles has an ugly horse face.

Sajida Talfah is the widow of my good buddy Saddam Hussein. They were cousins. They produced a badboy son named Udhay. People say he was crazy. I say Udhay was braver than his father. He died during a direct firefight with US troops. The Americans found Saddam hiding underground. Conclusion: cousins make crazy courageous children.

This was already debunked years ago. The family has an inheritable trait that messes up their spine somehow. Because they live in a remote area and did not have access to health care, it wasn't fixed. IIRC, they were very hurt by the comments that they are less evolved.

This documentary is so absurdly misinformed on what evolution is and how it works it's maddening. What does a few people being unable to walk upright have to do with evolution? Why the ***k is this documentary comparing them to fossils and tree-dwelling apes? Were the documentary film makers home schooled when they were kids or something?

The family that walks on all fours — and why they can’t stand up

In a village of dirt roads and stone dwellings just north of the Turkey-Syria border, a slight rain falls as a hunched man clad in black wobbles down the pavement. At first glance, as seen in a BBC documentary, he appears inebriated. He clings to a stone wall to his left and lurches uneasily. But then he slowly lowers his hands, encased in green slippers, to the muddy ground. Gingerly, he begins to walk away and out of the frame — on all fours.

The man is one of five children in a religious family bedeviled by an unusual condition that has flummoxed and fascinated scientists since the scientific community first discovered them in 2005. The parents are normal. But five of their progeny are quadrupedal. They walk appendages down, bottom in the air.

Here is another article explaining, It’s adaptation to an unforeseen and rare disorder.

I read somewhere that a law suit was started. The family was exploited. They suffer from a disease in the spine that makes them unable to walk upright.

There was a guy in Guyana walked in all-fours.  He had special shoes and (walking) gloves.  I saw him once!

He hung around Regent Street Bourda market area.

I agree. Those two boys took about 40 bullets. They also fired about 500 bullets.

Actually Udhay, his brother Qusay, & Qusay's 14-year-old son Mustapha perished in that battle on July 22, 2003. Three brave Iraqi patriots.
