What ๐ป๐บ means
Vanuatu's flag: red and green fields joined by a black and yellow sideways Y, with a curled boar's tusk and fern leaves in the black triangle. It represents the South Pacific island nation.
Travelers post it for active volcanoes ๐, diving and Port Vila. Ni-Vanuatu use it for national pride.
The land diving ritual on Pentecost Island, where men leap from towers with vines tied to their ankles, inspired modern bungee jumping.
