Actually Butte is even worse than the rest of the state. They drink polluted water from hundreds of years of mining and smelting. The heavy metals affect the local's reasoning powers and sensibilities. Funny things happen in the town. Even worse, all the radical Islamists want to nuke it since the guy who got Bin Laden was from there. Watch your wallets and your innocence while traveling through.
....this is why Montana are for badasses. This is another reason why this Montana raised woman is a badass. I had to fight off Abominable Snowmen every winter all my life....
2:15 "What the WTF are abominable snowmen?" "They look a lot like Italians, but do not own gold chains." This had me spitting my drink out from laughing so hard.
I live in Montana. The funny thing is, I think I have done more than half of the things she said in the last year: hunting, fishing, building a fire, making moonshine, shoveling snow, shoveling manure, digging for gold cooking pioneer woman recipies, buying ammunition, renting 80s movies (netflix), baking bread, sending smoke signals, using an outhouse
Yes everyone - that is how it is here in Montana - it is a tough place to live - the population is low, which causes Montanans to treat one another with courtesy and respect. Occasionally the temperature plunges to -40F - it is very hard on noxious pests and non-natives! Employers sometimes have trouble finding enough people to fill open jobs. Sometimes the traffic on 10th Ave. South is terrible - traffic backs up for a whole block, sometimes. Don't move to Montana - you will never be happy living elsewhere if you do!
1987, forming anti-government militias, sending smoke signals, eating venison, going poop in the out house or avoiding the abominable snowman, they are drinking whiskey by the gallon in a saloon.
She is absolutely correct. I live in Montana. I am lucky. I have a creek on my property for water. Road is closed for the winter though. Best you all stay clear of Montana.
I love in Michigan now, but I have always had my heart set on moving to Montana. I need rural, I need mountains, I need beautiful scenery and peace. Every picture I've ever seen of Montana is just gorgeous, I watched Aerial America just for the Montana episode. We have beautiful places here in Michigan, but man, nothing is more beautiful to me than a country, scenic skyline and wide open spaces.
Mason Choriki is this really the stuff in montana? i really wanted to move there once i got older! booo man now this sucks... my state is so differenent
this video is just a joke don't worry, everything is cheap and we have towns, just a couple millions of peop, is all we have but, look I have a tablet a ps4, and flat screen, and I live in montana, and I live 10 miles from kalispell, a place called marion, way up in the mountains, the only prob in marion is the sucky Internet conection but still, if you wanna avoid fat, and techy people then montana is a good place, most people here have a job, and an outdoor person.
This video is so true! Please spare yourselves lots of pain and heartache and stay where you live. I've lost three good horses in the snowy mountains trying to get my monthly supplies from the distant settlements. The not having electricity part is not totally true. Bozeman and Missoula have it and they're wiring up Billings even now.
billkeele I liked it. Ever since john Steinbeck said it in his book travels with Charlie. I wanted to see it. Is not for everyone but heck what is. Montana is nice. Just drive carefully.
I lived in America for 10 years now since I left England, and since 2006 I always wanted to visit Montana. Luckily my 6 year dream finally came true on December, 2012, and Montana looked as just I imagined it to be, on my last day I spent 12 hours total just driving around in the south western part of the state. I want to go back like right now! Florida sucks!
Gawd!!, this is beautiful!!! I actually grinned showing some of my missing teeth! ... Its a damn good thing I can not write, cause if I did something like this I would be walking around with a silly grin on my face all day! Excellent job bmiller!!
Hah- so we we've been listed among the top schools in the country for more than 20 years. I hope we're not found. Most of us here are friendly and kind-and can ski, ice skate, swim in our very clean rivers in the summer, drive to Yellowstone and Glacier, two of the most beautiful and interesting National Parks and be cool at night even in 90 degree weather in the summer. Wait a minute-- I'm lying. Don't come here. It's horrible, you wouldn't like it, forget you read this...keep the secret.
this video is 100% true. If you live on either coast do not move to Montana, do not visit Montana, do not google Montana. frankly, avoid flights that fly over Montana. And tell all your friends how shitty montana is. Thank you.
Don't forget the wild cougars (the four-legged kind) who hang out around grade schools and pick off the smallest children for their daily meals. We've tried fencing in the play grounds, but then they just wait until the kids head to the dog-sleds to be driven home and pick 'em off at that time.
I had a cousin who flew into Montana. Was picked up at the airport and said in the car, "I wasn't expecting paved roads!" Hold up... you thought we figured out runway science to land that big ass plane you flew in on but thought we got stumped with highway travel? Do you realize how big the state is? Most of us can't get to a job without highway travel. Where did you think the plane was going to land? That was a college education person. I am just a simpleton from Montana scratching my head while watching tv where all the cars go fast wondering how they got the magic ground underneath the cars. "Hey, where do we get the hard grey ground that connects one place to the other? Make car go fast!"
YES KEEP OUT OF MONTANA.. Only certain people could handle those conditions !!!! KEEP OUT... And Who wants a Starbucks when there is City Brew???... MUCH better than Starbucks !
I'm from Montana and I LOVE this video, it is hilarious to me. I think that a lot of people really do think a lot of these things are true, as ridiculous as they are . . . This video shows how stupid they are. :) Thanks to whoever made this!
“In fact. . . . the drive-thru at your Starbuck’s will probably be called a ‘ride-thru’” just kills me - FLOORS me - every single time I’ve heard it I just crack up - for more than a DECADE!!!
When I heard about this video, via pony express. I hitched my wagon and rode to the nearest internet cafe to see it. All I have to say is Montanans love coffee even more when you mix a gallon of whiskey in it.
I'm from Montana and have lived somewhat near the borders of Canada, Wyoming and Idaho. I thought this video was a comedy but I guess it's supposed to be serious? Haha! 😝 The stuff she mentioned was totally stereotypical of a hillbilly lifestyle in the boondocks of the southern states. As a Montanan, I'm naturally an outdoors lover and nowhere near being fat...or tech deprived. Montana is like Middle Earth and the Native Americans here are like the Elves.😍
When I lived in Great Falls, people thought I was crazy (I loved it), but then my son moved from Seattle, to Conrad then to Cut Bank, and this is where HE discovered the true meaning of hardy Montanan's. None of us think we have ever been associated with better people...
The Flathead rez is my home. I never moved away from here. The farthest I left from here was Rocky Boy, and that where half of my family lives, but i never stayed.
their is electricity and paved roads and their aren't abomanal snow man everything that that lady said about Montana was a lie she just didn't want him to move
This is what I told people when I lived out of state so they would never move here. I'm a fourth generation Montanan and can't imagine living anywhere else again, those six years in Portland were torture! This is the best state in the union!
I grew up in Missoula and there aren't many positive things I can say about it. When I could finally leave, I was amazed at the opportunities and friendliness in other states/towns. The responses below illustrate my points about Montanans. And when I was back for Christmas I couldn't believe the traffic on Reserve street! I don't drive a prius or smartcar. And, I haven't heard of an "air alert" since I left. Every time I return I'm painfully reminded of the attitudes and environment that I left.
I wish people would spread rumors like this about North Carolina. The best they can is tell people we only have one tooth, marry our cousins and are all high school dropouts. Every damn place has the "Gun Free Zone" signs up and they think we're doing the "Gunfight" at the OK Corral everywhere. We got 300,000 illegals some with tattoos on their faces from El Salvador spray painting gang signs on all the buildings, 12 people shot last weekend with five dead including a 7 y/o boy and nobody's talking. Going to Asheville is like a preview of a trip to San Francisco, Charlotte is filled with San Francisco people brought in by Wells Fargo and Bank Of America, It used to be a nice place once.
LOL....I love it!!! Too funny!! We should send a copy of this too them Californians.........maybe we can keep the crazys down there and not come up here, unless we need a few of them to feed bears when needed.
Anthony Vega them coming in and buying property raise real-estate prices, they're fucking awful drivers, and usually buy into stuff that drifts away from traditional montana country culture and changes the economic landscape of towns to the point where bozeman and downtown missoula are yuppy coffee shop centrals, among other things
Because Californians leave their effed up state and vacation in Montana then try to tell them how to live. Montana natives know how to live. Dispite what is said online and on TV shows about us we like the way our state is run and how we live. So when Californians come and enjoy our way of life then tell us we should do things differently while their state runs down the rest of the nation... we don't take kindly to it. You can visit Montana and tell us how pretty it is but keep your opinions on how our state spends money to yourself until Californians can balance a check book. The reason Montana hates California is because they say, "your shit stinks!" While California hasn't seen toilet paper in years.
I live in Montana. It's beautiful. There IS paved roads, I have NEVER ridden a horse, we DO have electricity or else I wouldn't be on the computer. I was actually really offended by this. It is SO pretty here.
I think that things like this should go all over the world! Everyone out of state needs to think that we only have outhouses here. Keep the out of staters out! lol, and the Abominable Snowman?!! lol, I've been searching for him for years! I think this is great! If you need me I'll be out chopping wood whilst drinking whiskey by the gallon.
Electricity from a current bush you mean and the roads are paved with the feces of wagon train horses and the pulverized bones of unfortunate settlers. Honestly it got to -72 about 12 miles from where I live. Coldest temp ever in the continental United States. We do love our guns too. Open carry everywhere, except the saloon. We check them in and can't shoot them until we leave the bar. You'll know when Saturday night rolls around. That and we usually have our weekly baths then, so it smells better. Stop on by foreigners, we hear you have pretty mouths!
Montanan here and for the sake of Montana, everything in this video is true so stay right where you are! You wouldn't like the state at all and the cities are, well, not cities at all.. more like towns. Many cheers and good luck!
Everybody should know this is all realllllly sarcastic. The only true things are 1. The snow blocking your way to the grocery store (which you get there via horse) but this happens on rare occurrences and we have amazing snowplow drivers. Plus, people in Montana actually know how to drive in snow. 2. We also like to hunt, fish, chop wood, sit by the fire, bake bread (because who doesn't like homemade bread) eating meat (aka venison), and we do have to shovel snow, yet still leaving time coffee.
Aly Cat Schelm I'm coming I'm black as well I'm jus getting tired dealing with the city I been there before I loved it u guys have more freedom less than a million people probably so I c y
Let them think what they want about Montana, so long as it keeps it the best kept secret, I don't mind. I am grateful for the way things are here in this beautiful state. For those of us who live in this state, we would rather keep it the way it is, wild and beautiful. And yes, there are Starbucks here.
So... I may need to move to Missoula, MT. My finace is there already... working. I am planning to follow soon. I am curious about the change of pace from city living (Chicago) and moving 2200 miles away to a more...(rural setting)? We both have school aged children. I am curious about the school system. I am not caucasian. Sine arriving in Montana, my fiance has been met with nothing but kindness from everyone he has encountered. I want to know that we can move to a neighborhood, be accepted, make friends and good lives for ourselves and our children. Any comments?
I have lived my entire life in Montana and actually spent the first 18 years in Missoula. You will probably find it very different from Chicago as there isn't as large of a cultural setting (it being a much smaller city), here we do a lot more outdoors activities such as hiking, rafting down our 3 rivers, mountain biking etc. Trust me, as soon as you see how beautiful it is here you will see why we spend so much time outside. I went through every level of public schooling in Missoula and can testify that there are not only many different options (including private schooling) open to you but the schools are also very accepting and progressive (as is Missoula itself). I wish you luck in your new life!
I live in Montana, and I'm from the Phoenix metro area. While Missoula is not Chicago or NYC, I would have a hard time claiming Missoula is "rural". It has a lot of your standard chain restaurants like Chili's, Outback, a Five Guys, a HuHot Mongolian Grill, tons of fast food chains, a lot of your standard big box stores, several craft breweries and at least one craft distillery, a commercial airport, multiple car dealerships, big ol' Cabela's and REI, multiple options for natural foods type stores (The Good Food Store is a BIG, local grocery store, or you can find the Natural Grocers chain there as well).
I will also add that I have friends who moved down to the Bitterroot just south of Missoula in recent years. They are a mixed family- he's Caucasian, she's Thai, and they have four kids together. While it's not Missoula, they have had a great experience down in the Stevensville/Hamilton area. They and their kids were quickly accepted into the community and participate in a homeschool group, Tae Kwon Do, and other community things.
Jud issma, so sorry about the delayed response. I am leaving in 7 days! My life is going at a frantic pace! I would love to keep in touch. When are u moving?
I've lived in Montana for a long while now, it's a nice place, ignore that garbage about "oh Montana is full, go somewhere else.." most people are nice, sadly most of the negative interactions I've had were with hardcore locals.
why do I wish to move to Montana? well I'm on the east coast and looking for a change from being anywhere near my family and I feel Montana would be a nice place to go. I've never been and figure for some reason I've always wanted to move there. still researching the state but I feel it would suit me more than where I am currently.
I live in the mountains of Montana in the area of McDonald Pass. It can be anywhere from fifty below in winter to 105 in the summer with lightening and forest fires all summer. Summer lasts three months if we are lucky. Most of our predators have little time to put on fat for the winter months and spend most of their time foraging for whatever is a source of protein, even people. People in Montana hunt for the same reason to feed our families. Survival is a way of life.
This is like the first time I went to Disney World and people were saying stuff like, "Montana huh? Does your family own a carriage or do you each ride your own horse to school?"
Jennifer Graves The word racist is a Jewish construct so white people are not allowed to talk about differences they see between the races. Diversity is code word for anit-white.
Listen up, folks. That's exactly right. I live in Montana, in a log apartment, and the landlord isn't decent enough to provide a hitching post for my mare. There's this guy in Martin City who target practices on tourists' RVs all summer so he'll be sure and bag his moose in the fall. If you visit Glacier Park in an RV, be sure you have no targets painted on the side.
I wish Montana was a little more like this, but it's close enough. When my Grandpa grew up there 100 years ago, it was almost like that for them. They had a lot of great adventures. You can't have adventures if you stay inside. Until this fall all we had for heat in our house was wood (in Washington).
I'm from Montana, and it's terrible. Most people don't have running water. Houses are heated by coal or oil, and I didn't even know the internet was a thing until I left, and the people there will shoot you if you look at them funny. People regularly get mauled by animals in Montana, especially the ones who aren't from the area, and the only proper defense from a bear attack is a zucchini, but that only works part of the time. About 90% of what's in this video is true (except the snowmen, that's a joke. Though grizzly bears are similar). Please, do yourself a favor and don't move to Montana. Please. Don't.
Yuck.... I have to go to Zootown to buy the big stuff, it's like driving in California... Far too many libtards and homeless dirtbags... I get in and get out!
She acts like those are problems. I'm from the real Montana (not watered down billings,bozeman etc.) 3rd generation (not transplant, and yes that makes a difference) and i love this video! Thank you for helping keep yuppy, non-sensible people out of our beloved state and culture!
This video is all true. So if you want to come to Montana you'll have to Cowboy up and get tough. And the winters are way worse than what she describes and way more bears that she describes
Half kids here play video games, the other half like to hunt. Adults love to go to bars but getting paid here is bad with min wage being 7.00, I live in the western side where there's forest in every direction and there's infinite dirt roads to ride on, lots of hiking up mountains, and overall great place for country people
I ran out of lime for the outhouse yesterday. It's a 10 hour trip there and back to town and I'm not sure the old mare can make it anyways. Guess I'll have to pinch my nose. Other than that, it's pretty nice here. Well, there is that pesky bear.
gakwat it's just my opinion personally I don't like it because it's cold and there's is nothing to do besides a few things like scheels and idk like just tiny things. It's boring and small and I can't wait to move I lived in Hawaii a year but then moved to Montana and I've lived here for 14 years now :/ it's terrible
Ha-ha trust me Im not a boring person I DONT LIKE MONTANA its terrible in my opinion they don't really have much to do they have guyser park and a couple water parks I'm 14 I can't go out and do stuff I'm stuck at home all day
My girlfriend's list of things in Montana that can kill you: Grizzly bears, black bears, mountain lions, bobcats, wolves, bison, elk, moose, bighorn sheep, rattlesnakes, scorpions, black widows, avalanches, blizzards, regularly -30 degrees (not wind chill), regularly 5 feet of snow (10 in the mountains), sand storms, forest fires, tornadoes, the Yellowstone River, earthquakes, drunk drivers, Natives, other Montanans' guns, your own gun. Not to mention your next to one of the largest volcanoes on Earth. This list is not comprehensive...
Jas n 8s 1 there aren't much tornados in montana 2 some of the animals are more scared of you that you are them 3 and I haven't seen any avalanches here
I grew up in the Deer Lodge Valley, right between Missoula, Helena and Butte. Bozeman and Billings are about two and four hours away, respectively. Then, there's Kalispell a few hours from Missoula, so I'm right smack in the middle of a small portion of where there's a lot of travelers to and from everywhere. I-90 passes right by the edge of town, if that helps.
I used to live in Montana. Glad I left! (A friend and I call Missoula "Porpoise Spit"). I tell people that you're not allowed to graduate high school without posing for a picture with a dead animal. Last time I visited, we were stuck in some crappy Missoula traffic and sucked in their dirty air during one of their "air alerts". Not quite the way people like to advertise it.
I rode my horse all the way to Denver where they have electricity just so I could watch this video. When I get back to Bozeman, I will found a theater company so that we can act this video out around the campfire.
Believe me, the differences are small, both were nearly tied for having the lowest per capita income a couple of decades ago, and filled with alcoholics, crooks, cigarettes and depression.
LOVED IT!! & as a fellow Montanan, born, raised, and will die here, I say, "Stay away all you outsiders! You don't want to mess with us Montanans and our outhouses!!" Montana ROCKS!!
I'm from Butte MT and this video is mostly true so everybody just stay out and leave us alone!!!
Actually Butte is even worse than the rest of the state. They drink polluted water from hundreds of years of mining and smelting. The heavy metals affect the local's reasoning powers and sensibilities. Funny things happen in the town. Even worse, all the radical Islamists want to nuke it since the guy who got Bin Laden was from there. Watch your wallets and your innocence while traveling through.
Mars Rover us getting bombed would be great because we wouldn't have to deal with the rest of the retards in the world anymore.
Ah...but are you willing to let someone else drink all the fine Irish whiskey? I though not. LOL
Jesse Ehman you could nuke butte and it would probably make the place better
Im from Butte to and yeah this place is like a dead end town damn the mining destroyed the place but sadly i dont see my self leaving
This is exactly how Montana is, so everyone stay away. Especially from the California area.
so funny laughed
for a while
I am from California and I laughed too.
lol
Be ready to marry ur sister in Montana
That’s Alabama
....this is why Montana are for badasses. This is another reason why this Montana raised woman is a badass. I had to fight off Abominable Snowmen every winter all my life....
As a Montanan this made me laugh sooooo hard.
+LeeAnn Kinzel Right!
+LeeAnn Kinzel seriously!
Ikr?
amazing Tae me too
Same.
2:15 "What the WTF are abominable snowmen?"
"They look a lot like Italians, but do not own gold chains."
This had me spitting my drink out from laughing so hard.
Im a Montanan and none of this is true. But hope it keeps the city people out of here!😂
:-(
I know right
Hannah Afoa yesssss
Right!?! We don't need no city pollution here. We've had enough damage as it is from all the fires.
Hannah Afoa exactly i am angry that they think that montana is this way
I live in Montana. The funny thing is, I think I have done more than half of the things she said in the last year:
hunting, fishing, building a fire, making moonshine, shoveling snow, shoveling manure, digging for gold
cooking pioneer woman recipies, buying ammunition, renting 80s movies (netflix), baking bread, sending smoke signals, using an outhouse
What about milking a kitty kat?
@@jackryan3199 do you mean a mountain lion?
Did the abominable snow men get you?

Montana is full try north Dakota
Do you realize you'd be living in North Dakota?
Haha lol montana is far from full
johnathon hardman shhhhhhh
Jenna Sullivan how welcoming
North dakota sucks
1987, forming anti-government militias, sending smoke signals, eating venison, going poop in the out house or avoiding the abominable snowman, they are drinking whiskey by the gallon in a saloon.
yes. this is exactly what montana is like. you should not move here. you do not want to live in montana.....
you must not
girmanamt YOU don't want to live here.... I do ;) i'm saying please DON'T move to montana!

Yup, the 4th largest state by land area with the 44th largest population at just over a million people...stop with that bullshit.
You've just been banned !

It's not knicknamed "Montuckey" for nothing. LOL. I however love Montana!
Don't forget the wild cougars (the four-legged kind) who hang out around grade schools and pick off the smallest children for their daily meals. We've tried fencing in the play grounds, but then they just wait until the kids head to the dog-sleds to be driven home and pick 'em off at that time.

Yes! Please don't move to Montana. It's perfect just they way it is.
William Howell well, thanks :-(
If you move here, adapt to it. Don't try to make it like the place you had to leave because it got so bad there... We are running out of places.

As a Montanan, I'm naturally an outdoors lover and nowhere near being fat...or tech deprived. Montana is like Middle Earth and the Native Americans here are like the Elves.😍
When I lived in Great Falls, people thought I was crazy (I loved it), but then my son moved from Seattle, to Conrad then to Cut Bank, and this is where HE discovered the true meaning of hardy Montanan's. None of us think we have ever been associated with better people...
The Flathead rez is my home. I never moved away from here. The farthest I left from here was Rocky Boy, and that where half of my family lives, but i never stayed.
Lil' Miss 'Lena The farthest I’ve been from Montana has been when I went to NJ with my family
throwing rocks at beavers
Stay in California.
FUCK COMIFORNIA!!!!!..and I'm from there!
+Rick M. dude, I'm a Californian, I hate California, I moved to Montana because it's NOT California. I like Montana the way it is.
Lester Frothinger cool
Fuck califorkike
Lester Frothinger You’re lucky usually we don’t like people from California but if you’re cool with Montana, were cool with you
their is electricity and paved roads and their aren't abomanal snow man everything that that lady said about Montana was a lie she just didn't want him to move
This is what I told people when I lived out of state so they would never move here. I'm a fourth generation Montanan and can't imagine living anywhere else again, those six years in Portland were torture! This is the best state in the union!
I grew up in Missoula and there aren't many positive things I can say about it. When I could finally leave, I was amazed at the opportunities and friendliness in other states/towns. The responses below illustrate my points about Montanans. And when I was back for Christmas I couldn't believe the traffic on Reserve street! I don't drive a prius or smartcar. And, I haven't heard of an "air alert" since I left. Every time I return I'm painfully reminded of the attitudes and environment that I left.
Yes all true. Now stay home in your city. Lol
I wish people would spread rumors like this about North Carolina. The best they can is tell people we only have one tooth, marry our cousins and are all high school dropouts. Every damn place has the "Gun Free Zone" signs up and they think we're doing the "Gunfight" at the OK Corral everywhere. We got 300,000 illegals some with tattoos on their faces from El Salvador spray painting gang signs on all the buildings, 12 people shot last weekend with five dead including a 7 y/o boy and nobody's talking.
Going to Asheville is like a preview of a trip to San Francisco, Charlotte is filled with San Francisco people brought in by Wells Fargo and Bank Of America,
It used to be a nice place once.
LOL....I love it!!! Too funny!! We should send a copy of this too them Californians.........maybe we can keep the crazys down there and not come up here, unless we need a few of them to feed bears when needed.
Can we get more likes on this video? Everything is very very very true . . . Everyone can just stay out of this amazing, I mean terrible state.
Why do people from Montana dislike people from California?
Anthony Vega them coming in and buying property raise real-estate prices, they're fucking awful drivers, and usually buy into stuff that drifts away from traditional montana country culture and changes the economic landscape of towns to the point where bozeman and downtown missoula are yuppy coffee shop centrals, among other things
Anthony Vega Because you bring all of your CRAP with you!! Homosexuals, illegals, gangs, liberal BS.............. stay right where the hell you are!
Because Californians leave their effed up state and vacation in Montana then try to tell them how to live. Montana natives know how to live. Dispite what is said online and on TV shows about us we like the way our state is run and how we live. So when Californians come and enjoy our way of life then tell us we should do things differently while their state runs down the rest of the nation... we don't take kindly to it. You can visit Montana and tell us how pretty it is but keep your opinions on how our state spends money to yourself until Californians can balance a check book.
The reason Montana hates California is because they say, "your shit stinks!" While California hasn't seen toilet paper in years.
12endit If they love their California culture, stay there! Don't bring it here!
12endit If they love their California culture, stay there! Don't bring it here!
We LOVE Montana! Fortunately, America gives us plenty of choices to be all that you can be wherever you want it to be!! So enjoy wherever you are!
I live in Montana. It's beautiful. There IS paved roads, I have NEVER ridden a horse, we DO have electricity or else I wouldn't be on the computer. I was actually really offended by this. It is SO pretty here.
I think that things like this should go all over the world! Everyone out of state needs to think that we only have outhouses here. Keep the out of staters out! lol, and the Abominable Snowman?!! lol, I've been searching for him for years! I think this is great! If you need me I'll be out chopping wood whilst drinking whiskey by the gallon.
HAHAHAHAHAHAAHA i laughed so hard at this😂😂😂 hahaha we have electricity here and the roads are paved hahaha
SHUT the FFFF up!!! Let them think it's no better... please.
Electricity from a current bush you mean and the roads are paved with the feces of wagon train horses and the pulverized bones of unfortunate settlers.
Honestly it got to -72 about 12 miles from where I live. Coldest temp ever in the continental United States. We do love our guns too. Open carry everywhere, except the saloon. We check them in and can't shoot them until we leave the bar. You'll know when Saturday night rolls around. That and we usually have our weekly baths then, so it smells better. Stop on by foreigners, we hear you have pretty mouths!
TheReesies lol the video is lying??!! really? wow they lie about a real state thats sad! lol!
@@emeraldgalaxy4767 DO YOU THINK THIS IS TRUE?
Montanan here and for the sake of Montana, everything in this video is true so stay right where you are! You wouldn't like the state at all and the cities are, well, not cities at all.. more like towns. Many cheers and good luck!
Everybody should know this is all realllllly sarcastic. The only true things are
1. The snow blocking your way to the grocery store (which you get there via horse) but this happens on rare occurrences and we have amazing snowplow drivers. Plus, people in Montana actually know how to drive in snow.
2. We also like to hunt, fish, chop wood, sit by the fire, bake bread (because who doesn't like homemade bread) eating meat (aka venison), and we do have to shovel snow, yet still leaving time coffee.
all so untrue I live in MT that is SSOOOOO UNTRUE!!!!!!!
Aly Cat Schelm keep quite. we don't want them here.
Aly Cat Schelm I'm coming I'm black as well I'm jus getting tired dealing with the city I been there before I loved it u guys have more freedom less than a million people probably so I c y
Montana is awesome!
Let them think what they want about Montana, so long as it keeps it the best kept secret, I don't mind. I am grateful for the way things are here in this beautiful state.
For those of us who live in this state, we would rather keep it the way it is, wild and beautiful. And yes, there are Starbucks here.
As someone who is born and raised in Montana, I can say all of this is 100% true.
how stupid! Montana is amazing! I live in Billings, and it's truly a wonderful place.
Allison Fields no keep it a secret we don't want people here we don't want change.
So... I may need to move to Missoula, MT. My finace is there already... working. I am planning to follow soon. I am curious about the change of pace from city living (Chicago) and moving 2200 miles away to a more...(rural setting)? We both have school aged children. I am curious about the school system. I am not caucasian. Sine arriving in Montana, my fiance has been met with nothing but kindness from everyone he has encountered. I want to know that we can move to a neighborhood, be accepted, make friends and good lives for ourselves and our children. Any comments?
I have lived my entire life in Montana and actually spent the first 18 years in Missoula. You will probably find it very different from Chicago as there isn't as large of a cultural setting (it being a much smaller city), here we do a lot more outdoors activities such as hiking, rafting down our 3 rivers, mountain biking etc. Trust me, as soon as you see how beautiful it is here you will see why we spend so much time outside. I went through every level of public schooling in Missoula and can testify that there are not only many different options (including private schooling) open to you but the schools are also very accepting and progressive (as is Missoula itself). I wish you luck in your new life!
Marsha Bennett could we keep in touch because me too I'm moving to Montana and currently live in NYC.
I live in Montana, and I'm from the Phoenix metro area. While Missoula is not Chicago or NYC, I would have a hard time claiming Missoula is "rural". It has a lot of your standard chain restaurants like Chili's, Outback, a Five Guys, a HuHot Mongolian Grill, tons of fast food chains, a lot of your standard big box stores, several craft breweries and at least one craft distillery, a commercial airport, multiple car dealerships, big ol' Cabela's and REI, multiple options for natural foods type stores (The Good Food Store is a BIG, local grocery store, or you can find the Natural Grocers chain there as well).
I will also add that I have friends who moved down to the Bitterroot just south of Missoula in recent years. They are a mixed family- he's Caucasian, she's Thai, and they have four kids together. While it's not Missoula, they have had a great experience down in the Stevensville/Hamilton area. They and their kids were quickly accepted into the community and participate in a homeschool group, Tae Kwon Do, and other community things.
Jud issma, so sorry about the delayed response. I am leaving
in 7 days! My life is going at a frantic pace! I would love to keep in touch. When are u moving?
I've lived in Montana for a long while now, it's a nice place, ignore that garbage about "oh Montana is full, go somewhere else.." most people are nice, sadly most of the negative interactions I've had were with hardcore locals.
Lester Frothinger if you don't live in Montana and move here your neighbors talk so much shit about
Compelling, but that's nothing we don't understand down here X)
I always thought we Montanans had a sense of humor! I can't believe anyone is taking this seriously. Lighten up folks!!!
holy shit, as a Montanan this made me so mad every thing they said was wrong who the fuck made this?
+Mother Dodo i hate this girl saying all these Not-true things she should get a frickin life as montanan i am MAD so i totally agree with u!
Mother Dodo it's made because we don't want people here that will change Montana it will keep them out. ok. keep Montana a secret.
aw and I want to move to Montana..... darn sucks they don't like outsiders. still planning to move but prepared to be very very very lonely.
Why's that?
why do I wish to move to Montana? well I'm on the east coast and looking for a change from being anywhere near my family and I feel Montana would be a nice place to go. I've never been and figure for some reason I've always wanted to move there. still researching the state but I feel it would suit me more than where I am currently.
Montana's a beautiful state. Real easy to ''NOT'' get found if ya don't wanna be
cool.
I'll move, if you fix me up with that brunette.
I live in the mountains of Montana in the area of McDonald Pass. It can be anywhere from fifty below in winter to 105 in the summer with lightening and forest fires all summer. Summer lasts three months if we are lucky. Most of our predators have little time to put on fat for the winter months and spend most of their time foraging for whatever is a source of protein, even people. People in Montana hunt for the same reason to feed our families. Survival is a way of life.
This is like the first time I went to Disney World and people were saying stuff like, "Montana huh? Does your family own a carriage or do you each ride your own horse to school?"
Im from montana and lol non of that is true were pretty much up to date with everyone else in the world so yeah but still funny though
Montana is mostly white...that's all I need
Fuckin' racist!
Jennifer Graves The word racist is a Jewish construct so white people are not allowed to talk about differences they see between the races. Diversity is code word for anit-white.
Hard Truth Quality b8!
Jennifer Graves What the hell does that mean?
Hard Truth It means that you're talking shit, and that I'm calling you out on it.
Listen up, folks. That's exactly right. I live in Montana, in a log apartment, and the landlord isn't decent enough to provide a hitching post for my mare. There's this guy in Martin City who target practices on tourists' RVs all summer so he'll be sure and bag his moose in the fall. If you visit Glacier Park in an RV, be sure you have no targets painted on the side.
I wish Montana was a little more like this, but it's close enough. When my Grandpa grew up there 100 years ago, it was almost like that for them. They had a lot of great adventures. You can't have adventures if you stay inside. Until this fall all we had for heat in our house was wood (in Washington).
I'm from Montana, and it's terrible. Most people don't have running water. Houses are heated by coal or oil, and I didn't even know the internet was a thing until I left, and the people there will shoot you if you look at them funny. People regularly get mauled by animals in Montana, especially the ones who aren't from the area, and the only proper defense from a bear attack is a zucchini, but that only works part of the time. About 90% of what's in this video is true (except the snowmen, that's a joke. Though grizzly bears are similar).
Please, do yourself a favor and don't move to Montana. Please. Don't.
Is that why some/most laws don't apply to there? Lots of ads I hear that offer insurance, morgages, etc say that they don't offer services to Montana.
Now wait just a dog gone minute!
How can they be rentin videos from 1987 iffen there ain't no lectricity?
that's good! :)
Its called gererators...we use solar powered generators to watch 1987 movies and go online for about 5 minutes. Haha
Very true. I'm from montana and I had to go to North Dakota to make this very comment!
False. Montanans no longer have the need to use candles because their eyes have evolved to see in the dark.
all the bitter montanan residents in here taking this seriously are hilarious
Lacey Womack I'm in Montana and this is hilarious
Lillie Erickson me too which is why i was laughing at all of the ones being so mad about these jokes
Maybe eastern Montana. Not really western Montana. GO MISSOULA!!
*cough* hippieville *cough*
+Crazy Ben I'm not but I'm surrounded by them
+Crazy Ben great city, just suuuper liberal
Yuck.... I have to go to Zootown to buy the big stuff, it's like driving in California... Far too many libtards and homeless dirtbags... I get in and get out!
PTTHOR Dude, I feel you when it comes to the liberals and hippies. But I will always love Missoula as a home.
She acts like those are problems. I'm from the real Montana (not watered down billings,bozeman etc.) 3rd generation (not transplant, and yes that makes a difference) and i love this video! Thank you for helping keep yuppy, non-sensible people out of our beloved state and culture!
Even though I've never been to Montana I'm from Arkansas and I'd much rather be there than here. Too many reasons to list
This video is all true. So if you want to come to Montana you'll have to Cowboy up and get tough. And the winters are way worse than what she describes and way more bears that she describes
i live in montana, i thought it was funny, honestly chill guys he knows montana is not like this XD
Dmitry Golovko true
Dmitry Golovko how is it? I would love to visit montana😍
Half kids here play video games, the other half like to hunt. Adults love to go to bars but getting paid here is bad with min wage being 7.00, I live in the western side where there's forest in every direction and there's infinite dirt roads to ride on, lots of hiking up mountains, and overall great place for country people
Nina lieberherr you can visit but you can't move here unless you adopt our ideas ok.
I ran out of lime for the outhouse yesterday. It's a 10 hour trip there and back to town and I'm not sure the old mare can make it anyways. Guess I'll have to pinch my nose. Other than that, it's pretty nice here. Well, there is that pesky bear.
Milking a kitty cat, sending smoke signals, going poop in the outhouse......... haha this is great!!! I LOVE MONTANA :)
I hate living in Montana :(
can u tell us the downside to living in montana
gakwat it's just my opinion personally I don't like it because it's cold and there's is nothing to do besides a few things like scheels and idk like just tiny things. It's boring and small and I can't wait to move I lived in Hawaii a year but then moved to Montana and I've lived here for 14 years now :/ it's terrible
abigail sullivan go outside and do something then
abigail sullivan I live here. I know what its like. Plenty to do here if you arent a boring person.
Ha-ha trust me Im not a boring person I DONT LIKE MONTANA its terrible in my opinion they don't really have much to do they have guyser park and a couple water parks I'm 14 I can't go out and do stuff I'm stuck at home all day
saw this the week before I moved here from the East ....Stil funny as hell!!....2 months later !
not really
My girlfriend's list of things in Montana that can kill you:
Grizzly bears, black bears, mountain lions, bobcats, wolves, bison, elk, moose, bighorn sheep, rattlesnakes, scorpions, black widows, avalanches, blizzards, regularly -30 degrees (not wind chill), regularly 5 feet of snow (10 in the mountains), sand storms, forest fires, tornadoes, the Yellowstone River, earthquakes, drunk drivers, Natives, other Montanans' guns, your own gun. Not to mention your next to one of the largest volcanoes on Earth. This list is not comprehensive...
Jas n 8s 1 there aren't much tornados in montana 2 some of the animals are more scared of you that you are them 3 and I haven't seen any avalanches here
Milking a kitty cat, throwing rocks at beavers hahahaha!
she must be from montana. we do like literally everything we can to keep people out of montana. thats how it stays awesome
I'm looking at buying some land in Potomac Mt. Can anyone tell me something about the area?
I was in Montana for a month I helped move a friend out there last summer I love it out there I'm going to move out there it's so beautiful
I grew up in the Deer Lodge Valley, right between Missoula, Helena and Butte. Bozeman and Billings are about two and four hours away, respectively. Then, there's Kalispell a few hours from Missoula, so I'm right smack in the middle of a small portion of where there's a lot of travelers to and from everywhere. I-90 passes right by the edge of town, if that helps.
we use corn cobs to wipe with too, first a colored one, then a white one to see if you need another colored one.
I want to move to wherever no one else want to move so keep this video going! Montana is on my list.
I used to live in Montana. Glad I left! (A friend and I call Missoula "Porpoise Spit"). I tell people that you're not allowed to graduate high school without posing for a picture with a dead animal. Last time I visited, we were stuck in some crappy Missoula traffic and sucked in their dirty air during one of their "air alerts". Not quite the way people like to advertise it.
I rode my horse all the way to Denver where they have electricity just so I could watch this video. When I get back to Bozeman, I will found a theater company so that we can act this video out around the campfire.
this was the funniest video i’ve seen in a long time
Believe me, the differences are small, both were nearly tied for having the lowest per capita income a couple of decades ago, and filled with alcoholics, crooks, cigarettes and depression.
LOVED IT!! & as a fellow Montanan, born, raised, and will die here, I say, "Stay away all you outsiders! You don't want to mess with us Montanans and our outhouses!!" Montana ROCKS!!
This is hysterical. Our Great Falls Facebook group refers to it constantly. I think I'll go cook some pioneer woman recipes now.
