The way Andrew uses humor here to break the tension is brilliant.

Even though the headhunting history is dark, his casual and joking delivery makes the moment feel lighter, while still giving the reader a glimpse into Borneo’s complex past.

It’s amazing how such stories can create a mix of awe and discomfort, but also serve to deepen curiosity about local traditions and the dynamics between cultures.

Thanks for sharing!
