      Well, it doesn't feel as extreme when you grow up with it. I got to help build schools in Africa one summer, which was winter for them, and all of the locals were bundled up in coats and hats even though it was 80F. Brrrr... But even for people growing up in Siberia, I'm sure -40 and colder still feels dang cold lol.

      A few years back, I went to visit my wife's family in Ontario, in the winter, far north of Toronto. It was -40F. I never truly knew what cold was until then. On a warmer day of -20, we went for a little hike in the woods. My wife's cousin would intermittently remove her gloves to take pictures and I thought she was insane. I've also experienced 115F and I think I'd take the -40 over that. Haha

I was visiting Texas once and it was 108 and dry heat midday and it wasn’t great but felt less bad than some 95F days I’ve experienced with high humidity in Boston. But heat gets exponentially worse, so the difference in feeling between 108 and 115 is more than 90 and 95!

      Part of the problem with learning about the world is discernment through biases of people and how one person's experience has been might not be the same as someone else (and biases can be applied just as much in books as well as in a RUclips video, because it's part of the human experience to develop biases for things). The best way someone can experience their own outlook on a country is visiting it themselves (and/or in some cases, living there for a while) while keeping other people's biases/experiences in the back of their mind.

    I grew up in Germany. The coldest I ever experienced there was -20 C. Then I moved to California. During the coldest part of January the night time temp might drop to -3 degrees C for a few days, but mostly it stayed well above freezing. Our only challenge was to keep the citrus trees from freezing.
    I now live in Washington State. Last winter we had several days of -13 degrees without snow. I felt cheated, suffering that cold and not getting rewarded with snow. I watched the birds trying to find food in those frozen conditions. I bought several types of bird feeders and started feeding the birds. At one point I counted 50 birds in a small area of my yard. Those feeders emptied out very fast. I went out every morning at first light and filled the feeders. I then went inside the house and enjoyed watching them fill their little bellies. There were birds of all feathers. It was fascinating watching them. I’m going to do the same this winter!

      Its a common mistake people compare deep east winter temperatures with west or closer to equator direction countries in winter. Its not same. The key is humidity. Up north there is a lot less humidity and -60c doesnt feel like burning your skin off compared to winter in example Finland, UK, Estonia ect where humidity is much higher in winter. In those countries -30c or lower is worse than -60 in Yakutsk Siberia because dry cold weather is actually not that bad.

      In comparison the largest research station in Antarctica, McMurdo Station, only had a record cold of −50.6C and typically is −29.5C in August (winter).
      However still quite a ways warmer than Vostok station which has a record cold of −89.2C, and typically goes down to −71.5C in August (winter).

Honestly, you just have to embrace the cold as part of your identity, or you’d go insane. The capital city celebrates a mythic battle every January between the King of the North Winds and the Vulcan King, representing summer. The tradition started when the New York Times belittled the city as “another frozen Siberia, unfit for human life”, so the city just leaned into that reputation and has been celebrating with a whole crew of mythical characters during the winter carnival for 138 years.

My first year down here the heat was unbearable, and now I can easily tolerate being outside all day in the summer, and I don't handle the cold as well as I used to.

    Oh, Yakutsk... I was there in the summer of 2000, and yes, it is interesting with its own peculiarities and beauty. On top of what you said, I want to add much more:
    - The Lena river that pass very close to city and it is very big there. Frozen in winter, thaw from springs so prone to floods, but many buildings in city and around are above ground on pillars.
    - Water pipes/system adapted to weather ...
    - The fact that it is almost on polar circle so in summer day is very long (20h+) and night very short (~2h) with very beautiful sunsets, when sometimes all cloud in the sky turn red. (In winter days are very short and nigths very long.)
    - The permafrost at 5-10 m underground so you can have a nice frige with about a constant temp of -5°C, by just dig a cellar.
    - Insects in summer !!!! I count at least 5 species of mosquito, a big horsefly, several kinds of dragonflies and moore...
    - Forests (unfortunately lately tend to forest fires in summers :( , otherwise very nice to see).

    Hi Kiun. I've recently discovered your channel and I love it. I've wanted to visit Siberia for years. I'm writing from a little (west coast) town in Scotland called Oban. We generally have quite mild weather. The coldest it gets might be -5(C) at night in the winter and warmest is usually around 30(C) in the summer. People don't cope very well with the dark, wind and rain (we don't get much snow because of the salt water) and seek to go abroad. This is probably because it is a small town with very limited things on what to do. Greetings and enjoy your winter!

The Yakuts call themselves Sakha, or Urangai Sakha (Yakut: Уран Саха, Uran Sakha) in some old chronicles. All of these are derived from a word related to Turkish yaka (geographical edge, collar) referring to the Yakuts' remote position in Siberia.
