There was a documentary a decade ago called Babies that filmed eight-month-olds in Mongolia, Tokyo, San Francisco, and Namibia. Mongolia looked like the best place to learn to walk: you live in a tent with a soft floor, grass everywhere outside, and fun animals to play with.
It was kind of like a meme about the Virgin Tokyo Baby who keeps slipping when he tries to walk on the polished wood floor versus the Chad Mongolian Baby in his yurt who walks triumphantly by holding on to a goat.
