When editing, we naturally tend to choose the most exciting video clips. What you don’t see are the moments spent driving through less spectacular landscapes or some of the challenges we faced. Please always keep that in mind when watching! Grindadráp An extremely controversial topic that is closely tied to the Faroe Islands is the traditional Grindadráp. In a nutshell, it is a mass killing of pilot whales, a species of dolphins. Every year, around 700 dolphins are killed in these hunts. As everything happens out in the open, with the shore waters literally turning red, these killings get a lot of international (media) attention. Frankly, it is extremely tough to separate ‚right‘ from ‚wrong‘ here. In the past, this subsistence hunting technique was vital for the survival of the local inhabitants with the meat being equally distributed among all islanders. As such, the Grindadráp always had an important social aspect, as the local community worked jointly together. There is no doubt that the centuries of hardship, living on a remote, wind-tossed island group, have ingrained the advantages of this hunting technique into the collective mind of the Faroese. From an outside perspective, killing pilot whales in such numbers seems utterly pointless and cruel, especially as, today, there are sufficient alternative food sources. At the same time, one could ask if there is a moral difference between killing pilot whales, a species of least concern, compared to seals, sharks, moose or deer? Or compared to cows, pigs or chickens held in factory farming, which are killed in the millions, away from the public eye. No person regularly eating meat is in any position to morally judge the actions of the Faroese. However, one thing that personally bothers us, is that these killings are defended by calling it a ‚tradition‘. In our opinion, traditions are nothing intrinsically positive. Slavery was once a tradition. Burning widows on a pyre was once a tradition. And female genital mutilation is still a horrible tradition today. Therefore, continuing these mass killings simply because they are a ‚tradition‘ is not a good enough reason. Some traditions are not worth keeping. #faroeislands #traveldocumentary 00:00 Intro 00:55 Location 01:16 Tórshavn 03:20 Nólsoy 04:36 Eysturoy 06:18 Klaksvík 07:24 Northern Isles 09:17 Fishing 10:25 Kalsoy 12:15 Sheep 14:04 Kallur Lighthouse 17:43 Mikladalur 18:37 Legend of the Selkie 20:40 Oyndarfjørður 22:15 Elduvík 24:17 Gjógv 26:42 Slættaratindur 28:30 Eiði 30:09 Fossá 31:26 Tjørnuvík 32:24 Saksun 33:53 Vágar 34:19 Tindhólmur 35:50 Múlafossur 36:45 Puffins 37:37 Sornfelli 38:49 Suðuroy 41:08 Forest 42:56 Cloud Waterfall 45:42 Akraberg 46:32 Lítla Dímun 47:04 Koltur 47:41 Kirkjubøur 49:31 Sandoy 51:24 Outro E9078FjrlqM |
