The legend of the Princess of Johor tells of a sudden and violent flood that hit Malaysia thousands of years ago and swept the Princess away. Her father, afflicted by pain, ordered his subjects to go to sea in search of his daughter and return only when they had found her. Even today the descendants of that people, the Bajau, move into the sea looking for their Princess. The Bajau are the world's largest remaining group of sea nomads and are all accomplished fishermen and free-divers who can remain underwater for as long as eight minutes on a single breath.
