About this listen

Off the coast of India lies an island frozen in time — untouched by modern civilization, fiercely protected by a people who kill on sight.
In this episode, we dive deep into the mystery of North Sentinel Island and the uncontacted Sentinelese tribe — one of the most isolated human populations on Earth.

From colonial abductions and deadly military encounters to the haunting story of a young American missionary killed trying to reach them, this is the story of a chilling collision between ancient survival and modern obsession.

Who are the Sentinelese? Why do they reject all contact?
What secrets lie on an island where no outsider is welcome — and where time itself seems to have stopped?

Through survivor accounts, declassified archives, failed rescue attempts, and a death that made global headlines, The Deep Dive uncovers what the world was never meant to see — and asks:
Should we ever disturb a people who’ve made it clear they don’t want to be found?
