You asked why we watch. 1. We like you 2. We became discouraged trying to find something wholesome to watch in the evening. 3. We find it interesting the different types of dams and the different ways they are built. 3. We are old and retired but still interested in learning new things. 4. It is very satisfying to see you remove the blocked water and help the farmers. We had a question, we did enjoy your Hunt for Mushrooms and wanted to know what type they are?
I started watching the removal of big concrete Dams in the USA and enjoyed the return to a natural river - but watching beaver Dam's being torn down and the water getting set free is quite satisfying
I watch for three main reasons. 1) I enjoy watching you take apart the dams, with or without a collapse. 2) I also enjoy the drone flights at the end of your videos because they give me a look at the country and I do not know what that part of Lithuania looks like. 3) I enjoy listening to your progress with English. I teach English to immigrant high school students and enjoy seeing people make progress in any language, especially one as difficult as English.
I am also enjoying listening to Mantas' improvement with his English. When he struggles with how to say something I often want to post a comment to help him, but I know from previous times that others take my efforts negatively as though I'm criticising him.
@@williamharberts5514 I am always impressed with everyone who has ESL. As I always say when they apologise for their "poor" English, "don't apologise, your English is way better than my (insert their language) ". I always appreciate their efforts.
I learned enough Spanish to get credentialed to teach Biology (college prep) in Spanish to the newcomers and still teach a couple of hours of ESL as well. I know how hard it is to become truly fluent in a second language because I know how hard it was for me to even become functional much less fluent. I admire anyone who can stick with it long enough to function in a second language.@@NiceLoki

12 Good reasons to watch your channel 1. You are an admirable character - very good at your job. 2. You make films which are technically very good - the colour, setting and sounds of nature all professionally done. 3. Unlike many professional media people - you do not block the views we are trying to look at, you modestly get on with the work. 4. You have a sympathy with nature, the countryside and indeed the beavers and keep a good balance. 5. Local people benefit from your hard work. 6. You have introduced your country to people around the world in such a good way. 7. The films are educational in the best sense - we learn so much. 8. The sound of running water, the bird song, the breezes in the trees, reed and grasses are treasured soundscape. 9. Over the years you document the seasonal changes - it is beautiful to be reminded of them in such a poetic way. 10. It is always good to watch other people working hard - especially when watching for a comfy chair!! 11. Yes the dam busting is fun and we love your athletic leaps just in time! 12. In England we would call you a 'national treasure'.
I love watching you dismantle a dam. I love thé sound of the water and the sound of the wood as it hits the pile. Also I am amazed at the intelligence of the beavers. I really like how you undermine the dams so that they collapse! Keep up the good work of helping farmers etc!😊🇺🇸
To answer your question as to why I watch your videos: 1. The mechanics of dismantling 2. The sound of the rushing water 3. The collapse (of course) 4: The scenery of your location (which is very beautiful) 5. Drone footage with ethereal music being played 6. I think you’re a very good person 7. There are times that I watch just to help support your family 8. And because you are handsome 😋
I also used to look at "post 10". He unclogg pipes and culverts done by beavers to protect roads from erosion. He ones sad the same. Beavers do usually not reuse sticks or branshes that lies on land because they think it is something wrong with them. He also said that when they rebuild they make it stronger each time because they belive the current build was too weak. Good luck with your work!
Hello Mantas. Yes the beavers do not use old sticks from the pile. It is because they can not reach or pull. They use the sticks from the water. Wood floats. It is not so heavy. The beavers have more power to pull in the water. The sticks are structure for the dam. The mud strengthens the structure and prevents the water from flowing. In Ontario, Canada. We burn the sticks in the winter with a control fire pit burn. Plus the fire keeps use dry and warm. Where we can not burn we use a Chipper shredder machine to eliminate the dead stick pile. Each country and location is different. The dry sticks become a fire hazard in the summer heat. The beavers require the water to move around quickly. They are not as mobile on land. You are doing a wonderful job taking care of the water systems. Keep up the great videos. I really enjoy them.
I was going to suggest a 55 gal vertical burn barrel, which we used to clear and maintain farmland. Once a fire is established in the base, the vertical burn will dry wet and green wood before it is consumed to maintain the fire. The barrel contains the fire for safety.
That's the most sensible reason I've ever heard. Beavers don't have thumbs, long bendable legs and arms for climbing or upright torsos with long necks. They simply can't climb the bank to get the logs back into the water. The ones closest at the bottom edge have all that weight sitting on top of them. 👍👍
Why I love to watch your videos: 1. I love nature, especially water, like oceans, rivers and streams. 2. I live in the city so I can’t easily see scenery you show. 3. I’m too old to go out and do anything like what you’re doing, it doesn’t exist near by. 4. It’s interesting to see where and how the dams are constructed, and to see how you dismantle them by hand. 5. The sight and sound of the water is pleasant, and to see the mud/grass/sticks get washed away as you dredge it up/dismantle it is satisfying. 6. You seem to be a good, hard working person with a nice young family so I want to support you. 7. I love the before and after shots from the drone of the beautiful country you live in! That is one of my favorite parts. We don’t get snow where I live in the San Francisco area. 8. You are helping your community. Keep up the good work, Dude!
I admire the efforts you spend on opening the dams. Lithuania seems blessed with abundant rainfall, farmland crisscrossed with drainage canals which must be cleared for agriculture, and a resurgence of beaver populations necessitating periodic maintenance. I find the sounds of running water very soothing, also. This kind of content is pleasant to view. and Thanks for reading.
First, happy birthday to your daughter. Second, I live in the city. I'm old now and can't do many things. I'd love to be your age and digging out dams. Hard work, instant gratification. Helps others, and being in the country would be great.
Greetings Mantas You are a hard working man, thank you for video I love how you explain and show us the surroundings land to see the build up of water caused by the beaver dam Enjoyed very much 🦘❤️❤️❤️ I love watching your videos because 1. I have always liked you as a person, sincere, modest and humane to the beavers 2. I enjoy being outdoors better than indoors so I like watching nature 3. I love the sound of nature and moving water 4 Since Covid we don’t go into nature much so you take us there and show us your beautiful country 5 I still spend much time outside caring for my garden but not as much time as I’d like as I’m 73 and can’t do as much as I could when I was stronger and younger I’m sure there’s more but that’s what I can think of now 🌹🌹🌹
I am in Canada, a senior citizen now and have removed hundreds maybe into the thousands of beaver dams over the years. Over the years most dams removed by dismantling by hand and a spade nosed shovel. I removed because of flooding like you and also for years I supplied minnows to fishing stores and would need to keep beaver pond levels low to catch the minnows. I think Canada has more beavers then any other country !!
Yes we in Canada have the most beavers, not only because our country is huge but also by population density. The largest beaver dam in the world was discovered to be in Canada by astronauts.
Is it just me or do these dams keep getting bigger, wider, and taller than we have previously seen? Plus the amount of water they are holding back is amazing. Good thing you are good at leaping out of the way when the walls come tumbling down! Stay safe.
Hello Mantas. My reasons for watching you videos are as follows: The Lithuanian country side is beautiful. Beaver and their dams are fascinating pieces of evolutionary engineering. Watching you assess the dam and plan / execute its removal is fun to watch. The excitement and anticipation of a collapse and your avoidance of getting caught in it.
Greetings from Argentina. Your videos involve phiscal work, show a clear positive effect in the landscape. I guess they show a task being fully realized, from cero to full completion, and that´s kind of like scoring in football. Thanks for sharing
It’s relaxing. Sound of water. You learn how beavers build and how smart they are. They all build different depending where they are located. Some use rocks and some use mud. Also the cleaning up aspect of my brain. Lol.
I’m in. Australia and Love watching people like you help your community! The water is very much an ASMR sound for me and watching you strategically dismantle them is great. Happy birthday to your daughter on the 12th if we don’t see you before then! 🇦🇺✌🏻
It is relaxing to watch the water start to flow! I've been fascinated with this since I found you. The collapses are amazing and I sometimes holding me breath waiting for it, wondering when it will happen. .
I live in a town and work in an office. I watch your videos because I’m envious of your job which seems to have freedom and flexibility, something I rarely experience. Keep up the good work 😊
I find your videos both relaxing and exciting at the same time. Exciting because of the collapses. I have always enjoyed watching people untwist a knotted mess, and that is what a beaver dam is when you get down to it. The chipping away and untangling is something I've always found relaxing. The reason I got attached to your channel specifically is your personality is so much fun. I also love that you include little weather reports from your location. As someone with a lifelong fascination with all the countries of the world, learning about the people, some of the daily life, and the weather/climate of your section of the world fulfills my need to be both nosy and learning something new all the time. 🎂Happy 1st birthday wishes to Roberta! 🎂
G’day from downunder! We live in a low rainfall area so you videos are “Water Porn” 🤣🤣🤣🤣 It is always good to see how people in other countries live, so you are educating us as well as entertaining us. Thanks for posting my friend, very enjoyable. 👋👋👋
I find your videos very relaxing except when the anticipation of a collapse is involved. I have learned from you to watch for the bubbles to know when it's getting close. Also, I've never been this close to a beaver dam. We have them near where I live but I only remember going to see the dens as a child. I appreciate that you do your greeting at the beginning and then let us hear the changes in the sound of the water etc. and don't chatter over everything. Getting to see your part of the world with the drone is great! Such a beautiful area! I had fun going along on your mushroom hunt in the rain too! You'll have to take us again maybe when the weather is more favorable (no lightning) and you can show us how you prepare them too. Thank you for sharing a little part of your life with us. You have a beautiful family and it's special that you have shared about them. Happy Birthday to your baby girl!! ❤ Kay Washington State USA
I originally started watching from curiosity. Then it was to see a collapse. Now, I am astonished at the engineering ability of the beavers to construct such a magnificent blockage to water. Astonishing. Plus it is wonderful to see someone working slowly, efficiently and deliberately at their work. The sound of the water is soothing and your work as well. Thanks for all your efforts.
I love playing in water, and watching you free dammed up water is enjoyable to watch, especially listening to the sound of fast running water. Additionally, you are doing productive beneficial work
The reason I watch is because it's so nice to see you helping fellow countrymen to help alleviate flooded farmland and to also learn about a country that doesn't get a lot of publicity and the drone shots showing your countryside and see the end results is satisfying to an retired man with time on his hands. I worked for 45 years and your hard work reminds me of a younger me.
Love seeing your beautiful country, the sound of the water, the intelligence of the beavers. Mostly your good heart and hard work. Give your baby a hug for me.❤❤❤❤❤❤
Hello. 🙂 I watch your videos because they are relaxing to watch. You are calm in your videos. and then it's nice to listen to the water. 🌊 Congratulations on your daughter's 1st birthday.🎂
Watching because Post 10 does this work in the logging areas of America. Mostly the north eastern states. You are more agricultural areas of your country that am not familiar with. A bit different but much the same in beaver dam construction. Most intrigued by the ability of these animals to cause such a huge blockage of vast amounts of water. Happy first birthday to your daughter. A milestone indeed. If rain comes hope you'll get to relax and enjoy some time off before the work starts again. 🎂🎈🎁🪵🦫🪵🤢😂
Why I look at your videos and others about unclogging beaverdams, is because it is a speciell feeling to see stopped water beiing released and flowing again. He who has "post 10" I wrote about before do sometimes filming at night with a speciell camera where we can see beavers rebuild and clogg the pipes again. Very interesting to see that.
I watch your videos and really like them. You do a good job and support your local farmers. Anybody can sit on their couch and watch, but too few people are prepared to get off their asses and do some real work. You come across. as being a really nice family man who is not afraid of work and supporting your wife and baby.. keep it up young man
Why am I watching the videos? I usually watch while I'm working. I like to see the water flow but mostly to listen to the sound of the water. It is a very peaceful sound.
I love watching your content. It is interesting to see you dismantle a dam. I enjoy the drone to see your beautiful country. It's peaceful to listen to the water. And I enjoy that your content is kid friendly. Keep up the great work. Happy 1st Birthday to your beautiful daughter.
I watch your videos because you are a hard working young man. Making a living and supporting your family. Love to hear the temperature over there. Really relaxing. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOUR PRINCESS!!
It looks like some of those stick could be firewood to heat a home.😃You have good quality videos , the filming and the drone flight , I do like the collapse . Happy birthday to your daughter
Hi @Kenislovas, I watch to watch the water drain down and also I find beaver engineering so cool, they obviously use the water to move massive loads compared to their own size, but they also obviously have a proven technique for dam building and I find it fascinating.
I respect you for the work you do for the farmers and the nature. I also like to see the collaps and the drone views, so we see more of your beautifull country. Congratulations to you and your wife with the birthday 🎉❤
I like watching your videos because it’s interesting to see how the dams were created by you taking them apart, plus when a whole dam gives way and especially the ones that roll over, it’s fun to see. Basically, your videos are entertaining, plus you are helping farmers and road departments.
Watching you accomplish removing the dam and how much you are helping the surrounding areas is very rewarding to see it done without mechanical tools is like stepping back in history. Also the sounds of the water is very relaxing helps me relax in this stressful world we live in . Keep up the good work
I watch you because... It's a little different every time It is pleasant watching you solve the problem of each dam It is possible to continue working while watching you, not necessary to concentrate intently on your action I enjoy seeing you make a difference, Being successful is good!
It is very satisfying seeing you dismantle these dams. You also speak well and have interesting dialogue. I don't enjoy many other people's dam videos, but I always love yours.
Love being outside. Peaceful, water flowing after dam removal. You are always respectful to others and the environment. Never vulgar. Enjoy the way you take the beaver dams down.
I love the sound of the water. collapses are fun and add spice. Each dam is similar yet unique and it is nice to know that problems are being solved. These are all reasons why I enjoy. Thank you for the videos
Mantas, I really appreciate your work you do. I really enjoy viewing the dam collapsed and how you go about it. You have a wonderful country to view, tell your daughter happy birthday on her big day and may she enjoy her own cake to eat as she what's to. David B.,Utah, USA. ❤❤❤.
It is very relaxing to watch how you methodically dismantle the dams. Whether it is a slow and careful dig out or a very satisfying collapse. You are very conscientious and you work so hard at a seemingly endless job. I love to hear the rushing water and the sounds of nature and to see your beautiful countryside when you show your drone footage. I am housebound in an urban area in the UK and to see your videos give me a lift each time you post. I can almost feel your satisfaction of a job well done. I wish you and your family well, take care and long may you continue to grow and prosper, because you thoroughly deserve it. 👏👏🇬🇧
Like the collapse, like to see someone doing something that's helping. So many people seem to only care about themselves its good to see someone who seems to want to help others.
Happy birthday to your small one! Reasons I watch: (1) Satisfying to see work lead to physical change/improvement. (2) Audio of rushing water is relaxing, while the release of pent up energy is a different kind of relaxing. (3) Dam collapse makes my eyes go from o.o to O.O
I have farmed all of my life and watching you preserve the land in the manner that you are doing this has evolved from when you first started making videos. Conservation of the land we use is an important part of preserving for the next generation to come. Thank you again
Damn.... those are Jurassic Park beavers😂..... its amazing how they handle such large branches. I have NO IDEA why I started watching you. I never thought this would EVER be interesting until post 10 and Im guessing thats why you popped up in suggestions. But oddly enough I do find it interesting....I think its amazing how these creatures can build and stop water with their natural ingenious skills....I also think its satisfying watching someone do something they enjoy....you are helping the farmers and now that I've been watching you I like your personality and think your cool and interesting. So there you go from someone who would have never searched for this type of entertainment.
You asked me: Why do I like to watch your videos? Many reasons. 1. Nature: I enjoy water, trees, farms, wild woods, camping, fires, mountain trail exploration, and where nature intersects human activity such as urban exploration and abandoned places, etc. 2. Fascination with your work: Style of removal of dams using only a rake (no technology or messy loud explosives). 3. Relaxing to watch ambient videos with very little dialogue/speaking: I can think to myself as I watch and not be distracted by being told what to think or believe. :>
Hello I used to do this with our 2 small streams in our forest in France. No beavers there but needed clearing. You are doing a great job. Happy birthday to your daughter ❤
Good work. ❤🇨🇦 I love watching you work. I love the ASMR sounds. I’m fascinated with how you dismantle the dams. I grew up around creeks as a child so daming them up and un-daming was also fun. I’m fascinated with how beavers can help with watersheds and prevent floods but also the damages they can do. They are protected here as the national symbol next to the maple leaf. I’ve seen how they can prevent drought conditions in some places so they have usefulness.
I watch because I love to see the water allowed to flow the way it should be to keep it from the fields. I love learning how it is done and would love to be able to help someone do it but too weak to be able to do on my own. It's just awesome to watch h a day sound of the water is soon calming!!!
Started watching Post10 (US guy) and RUclips said "what about this dude?", so I watched a video. You are very easy to listen to (your English is brilliant - thank you). I am interested in seeing how the beavers are managed. The impact they have and you make lovely videos. I'm jealous of your success but wouldn't deny you of it! You're doing a wonderful job 😊
I'm a 72 yr old woman in Florida. I'm handicapped and can't get outside. With you, I can almost smell the air, see the breeze, hear the water, and be absolutely amazed at the size and weight of some of the limbs and branches you pull out of the dams. It's absolutely fascinating to me. And you're a nice person who enjoys what he does and that makes the videos fun, too.
I am not 72 and I don't live in Florida, but I am indoors most days so what the young lady said in her comment is exactly how your videos make me feel.
I just enjoy watching you take out the dams. I don't even know why. I could care less who knows that I watch this channel and Happy Birthday to your daughter.
You're right, beavers won't reuse the trees limbs/branches that you remove. They consider the logs defective because their dam broke..., only out desperation will they reuse them. There are some cage traps used for relocation of beavers to where they can benefit the area. Some hunters can catches beavers for food... I like seeing since you're providing a service for the farmer's fields.... keep on doing this.😎
I am from Australia where water is in low supply. You only hear running water when it rains . I had never really thought about Beavers until I started watching your videos , I love listening to the sound of the water and I really enjoy how you explain farming in your country and how you can live with nature to keep the levels of underground water around you fields . You are fun to watch and enjoy what you are doing . Keep these videos coming ❤
Might not be the biggest dam you ever tackled, but that is a helluva lot of water behind it! Part of the reason I watch is because I know you are doing a good service for farmers and farmers are usually very good people who could use some help like this. And it is just fun watching the dams tumble down.
I admire how your work benefits others and how you just get on with the work without bragging or unnecessary explanations. You are straightforward and friendly, wholesome, kind, and interesting. I like how you talk and I love hearing the water. Keep up the good work!
the sound of water is relaxing. i like watching you work. you are informative. am quite impressed by the dam sizes & the length & weight of materials used, which how strong they are for their size the only beavers we have in Australia are in zoos
Good one. It's interesting to see the impact of the removal of each stick. Sometimes the smaller ones have more impact than the big ones. It seems to me that you are more likely to have a rollover when you clear the base of the dam and maintain the minimum flow as long as possible.
I like watching people doing their everyday jobs. also, not a lot of talking except for the beginning and the end, this is very nice. and the sound of the water is almost ASMR. very relaxing videos compared to many other videos where the people just yell for 90% of the time for whatever reason.
I love watching you remove the dams. Each one is different, and I love the sound of the rushing water. It is very calming. Thank you for sharing your videos.
I watch your videos because it's nice to see a job well done. You work very hard and make sure the canal is clear. The farmers need those channels open to protect the fields so it's gratifying to see you helping them. It's relaxing. The sound of the water and how it looks as it cascades over the dam is very calming. It's also kind of fun to guess which part you'll do next and to see how it comes apart. The collapse is fun and it's neat how you plan it out. The different camera angles make it more interesting to see the different views. Lastly, I am Lithuanian on my Dad's side. He was born here (US) and I never knew my grandparents so sadly I know very little about the old country. He's been gone for many years as well. No family stories on that side so it's nice to see the country and hear you speak. I wish I'd been born sooner to learn more of my family's history. Tell your friends that the internet is full of stupid, selfish, self-centered people doing outrageous things to get attention. You are a kind, generous, hard-working young man who is doing a service for his friends and neighbors and that is immensely appealing. Bless you and your lovely family.
I had foot surgery and have 3 weeks recovery time. So I’m watching lots of RUclips. Collapsing is so dramatic. Enjoyed much ! We love the scenery. Relaxing watching you work 😊
Your vids are very interesting, love seeing the water released, and the before and after shots. Perhaps show the before drone shots, before you dismantle the dam. But keep it up. Very nice fella also.👍👍
I just love watching your videos as it is incredibly satisfying. Seeing how methodical you are, watching as the dam collapses, then the end result of all the water pouring downstream. You do such a brilliant job and I really appreciate your work and the time you spending videoing and editing your dam removals. Many thanks!
Great video as always,your determination just carries on to rid the canals of beaver dams.this one gave you a good workout.just keep doing what your doing.👍👍👍😎😎😎
I like to watch a guy working hard, as well as the clamps, and how observant not to be trapped, or overwhelmed by it. Slowly, but surely you answer my questions as you describe the beavers. What needs to be done about them. Best of luck and most success to you.
One of Your videos popped up, I watched it and enjoyed the content and Your style of video. Beavers are clever builders and can be destructive, also. I think Your work is beneficial, good job. Be safe and Happy Birthday to Your Daughter🥳 Watching from the USA
I love the sound of the water flowing so relaxing and peaceful. Its also interesting how much different and the same dams are built depending on the materials in the area. How much more of the season is left for dam removal until you have to wait till spring?
The dam collapses are dramatic and interesting. The drone footage is pleasant. Beautiful countryside. You’re bringing your country’s many facets to others all over the world in a positive way. I love to listen to the water flowing. Very calming. It is lovely to see such wholesome footage. Happy birthday to your daughter.
You asked why we watch.
1. We like you
2. We became discouraged trying to find something wholesome to watch in the evening.
3. We find it interesting the different types of dams and the different ways they are built.
3. We are old and retired but still interested in learning new things.
4. It is very satisfying to see you remove the blocked water and help the farmers.
We had a question, we did enjoy your Hunt for Mushrooms and wanted to know what type they are?
Thank you Maggie! it was boletus :)
I am a senior U S citizen. I enjoy watching you work. I had no idea that a beaver could do so much damage. It is fascinating.
You are welcome!
I started watching the removal of big concrete Dams in the USA and enjoyed the return to a natural river - but watching beaver Dam's being torn down and the water getting set free is quite satisfying
Thanks! :)
I watch for three main reasons. 1) I enjoy watching you take apart the dams, with or without a collapse. 2) I also enjoy the drone flights at the end of your videos because they give me a look at the country and I do not know what that part of Lithuania looks like. 3) I enjoy listening to your progress with English. I teach English to immigrant high school students and enjoy seeing people make progress in any language, especially one as difficult as English.
I am also enjoying listening to Mantas' improvement with his English.

The sound of the water flowing is very relaxing.🥰 I remember when you only would write down your thoughts. Love your improvement in English.👏👏👏
Hello Mantas. Yes the beavers do not use old sticks from the pile. It is because they can not reach or pull. They use the sticks from the water. Wood floats. It is not so heavy.

I was going to suggest a 55 gal vertical burn barrel, which we used to clear and maintain farmland. Once a fire is established in the base, the vertical burn will dry wet and green wood before it is consumed to maintain the fire. The barrel contains the fire for safety.
That's the most sensible reason I've ever heard. Beavers don't have thumbs, long bendable legs and arms for climbing or upright torsos with long necks. They simply can't climb the bank to get the logs back into the water. The ones closest at the bottom edge have all that weight sitting on top of them. 👍👍
I enjoy seeing the water levels drop and the positive impact that your efforts have for the fields and trees etc.
Thanks! :)
Why I love to watch your videos:
1. I love nature, especially water, like oceans, rivers and streams.
2. I live in the city so I can’t easily see scenery you show.
3. I’m too old to go out and do anything like what you’re doing, it doesn’t exist near by.
4. It’s interesting to see where and how the dams are constructed, and to see how you dismantle them by hand.
5. The sight and sound of the water is pleasant, and to see the mud/grass/sticks get washed away as you dredge it up/dismantle it is satisfying.
6. You seem to be a good, hard working person with a nice young family so I want to support you.
7. I love the before and after shots from the drone of the beautiful country you live in! That is one of my favorite parts. We don’t get snow where I live in the San Francisco area.
8. You are helping your community.
Keep up the good work, Dude!
Thank You very much!
I like to see when you help the farmers save their fields. Keep up the great work.
Thanks buddy!
I admire the efforts you spend on opening the dams. Lithuania seems blessed with abundant rainfall, farmland crisscrossed with drainage canals which must be cleared for agriculture, and a resurgence of beaver populations necessitating periodic maintenance.
I find the sounds of running water very soothing, also. This kind of content is pleasant to view. and Thanks for reading.
Thanks for your comment! :)
It’s relaxing listening to the water and how carefully you work. Bless you and the work you do.
Thank you very much! ;)
First, happy birthday to your daughter. Second, I live in the city. I'm old now and can't do many things. I'd love to be your age and digging out dams. Hard work, instant gratification. Helps others, and being in the country would be great.
Thank you very much Dave!
Greetings Mantas
You are a hard working man, thank you for video
I love how you explain and show us the surroundings land to see the build up of water caused by the beaver dam
Enjoyed very much 🦘❤️❤️❤️
I love watching your videos because
1. I have always liked you as a person, sincere, modest and humane to the beavers
2. I enjoy being outdoors better than indoors so I like watching nature
3. I love the sound of nature and moving water
4 Since Covid we don’t go into nature much so you take us there and show us your beautiful country
5 I still spend much time outside caring for my garden but not as much time as I’d like as I’m 73 and can’t do as much as I could when I was stronger and younger
I’m sure there’s more but that’s what I can think of now 🌹🌹🌹
100% satisfaction.
The sounds, the effort, the results.
Happy birthday to your daughter!
Thank you!
I am in Canada, a senior citizen now and have removed hundreds maybe into the thousands of beaver dams over the years. Over the years most dams removed by dismantling by hand and a spade nosed shovel. I removed because of flooding like you and also for years I supplied minnows to fishing stores and would need to keep beaver pond levels low to catch the minnows. I think Canada has more beavers then any other country !!
I think so. You have most lakes in the world too!
I wasn’t aware bears made dams.
Yes we in Canada have the most beavers, not only because our country is huge but also by population density.
The largest beaver dam in the world was discovered to be in Canada by astronauts.
Since I am a beaver, I like to watch your videos to stay up to date on which dams you’re breaking so we can go and rebuild them 😂
:D
Is it just me or do these dams keep getting bigger, wider, and taller than we have previously seen? Plus the amount of water they are holding back is amazing. Good thing you are good at leaping out of the way when the walls come tumbling down! Stay safe.
I love the way you work I'm in a small town in NJ USA thank you God bless you and your family
Thank You!
I find your videos very calming. The sound of the water and you accomplishing the demolition by hand is very satisfying.
You are welcome buddy!
Hello Mantas. My reasons for watching you videos are as follows:
The Lithuanian country side is beautiful.
Beaver and their dams are fascinating pieces of evolutionary engineering.
Watching you assess the dam and plan / execute its removal is fun to watch.
The excitement and anticipation of a collapse and your avoidance of getting caught in it.
Greetings from Argentina. Your videos involve phiscal work, show a clear positive effect in the landscape. I guess they show a task being fully realized, from cero to full completion, and that´s kind of like scoring in football. Thanks for sharing
Thank you!
It’s relaxing. Sound of water. You learn how beavers build and how smart they are. They all build different depending where they are located. Some use rocks and some use mud. Also the cleaning up aspect of my brain. Lol.
I love seeing people help each other. I think what you do is a wonderful thing. You also enjoy your work.
Thank you very much!
@@Kenislovas you’re welcome, please keep helping, the work you do is incredible. 😁
I’m in. Australia and Love watching people like you help your community! The water is very much an ASMR sound for me and watching you strategically dismantle them is great.
Happy birthday to your daughter on the 12th if we don’t see you before then! 🇦🇺✌🏻
Thank you very much!
It is relaxing to watch the water start to flow! I've been fascinated with this since I found you. The collapses are amazing and I sometimes holding me breath waiting for it, wondering when it will happen. .
I live in a town and work in an office. I watch your videos because I’m envious of your job which seems to have freedom and flexibility, something I rarely experience. Keep up the good work 😊
I find your videos both relaxing and exciting at the same time. Exciting because of the collapses. I have always enjoyed watching people untwist a knotted mess, and that is what a beaver dam is when you get down to it. The chipping away and untangling is something I've always found relaxing.
The reason I got attached to your channel specifically is your personality is so much fun. I also love that you include little weather reports from your location. As someone with a lifelong fascination with all the countries of the world, learning about the people, some of the daily life, and the weather/climate of your section of the world fulfills my need to be both nosy and learning something new all the time.
🎂Happy 1st birthday wishes to Roberta! 🎂
Ohh! Thank you very much! :)
You do a good job with your videos. Man vs nature is one reason I enjoy watching you. The videos are well done. Happy Birthday to babygirl 🎉🎂🎆🥳
Thank you very much! ;)
G’day from downunder! We live in a low rainfall area so you videos are “Water Porn” 🤣🤣🤣🤣
It is always good to see how people in other countries live, so you are educating us as well as entertaining us.
Thanks for posting my friend, very enjoyable.
👋👋👋
Thank you very much! Pilot :)
I find your videos very relaxing except when the anticipation of a collapse is involved. I have learned from you to watch for the bubbles to know when it's getting close. Also, I've never been this close to a beaver dam. We have them near where I live but I only remember going to see the dens as a child.
I appreciate that you do your greeting at the beginning and then let us hear the changes in the sound of the water etc. and don't chatter over everything. Getting to see your part of the world with the drone is great! Such a beautiful area! I had fun going along on your mushroom hunt in the rain too! You'll have to take us again maybe when the weather is more favorable (no lightning) and you can show us how you prepare them too.
Thank you for sharing a little part of your life with us. You have a beautiful family and it's special that you have shared about them. Happy Birthday to your baby girl!! ❤

I originally started watching from curiosity. Then it was to see a collapse. Now, I am astonished at the engineering ability of the beavers to construct such a magnificent blockage to water. Astonishing. Plus it is wonderful to see someone working slowly, efficiently and deliberately at their work. The sound of the water is soothing and your work as well. Thanks for all your efforts.
Thank you very much!
I love playing in water, and watching you free dammed up water is enjoyable to watch, especially listening to the sound of fast running water. Additionally, you are doing productive beneficial work
I love what you do because it is purposeful to the environment
Thanks!
The reason I watch is because it's so nice to see you helping fellow countrymen to help alleviate flooded farmland and to also learn about a country that doesn't get a lot of publicity and the drone shots showing your countryside and see the end results is satisfying to an retired man with time on his hands. I worked for 45 years and your hard work reminds me of a younger me.
Thanks mate :)
Love seeing your beautiful country, the sound of the water, the intelligence of the beavers. Mostly your good heart and hard work. Give your baby a hug for me.❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks! I Will :)
You are also being an awesome help to the farmers.
Thank you very much! ;)
Hello. 🙂 I watch your videos because they are relaxing to watch. You are calm in your videos. and then it's nice to listen to the water. 🌊 Congratulations on your daughter's 1st birthday.🎂
Thank you very much!
1. The relaxing sounds of the water,
2. Intriguing way the beavers construct their dams
3. I enjoy watching you work.
Thank you.
Watching because Post 10 does this work in the logging areas of America. Mostly the north eastern states. You are more agricultural areas of your country that am not familiar with. A bit different but much the same in beaver dam construction. Most intrigued by the ability of these animals to cause such a huge blockage of vast amounts of water. Happy first birthday to your daughter. A milestone indeed. If rain comes hope you'll get to relax and enjoy some time off before the work starts again. 🎂🎈🎁🪵🦫🪵🤢😂
Why I look at your videos and others about unclogging beaverdams, is because it is a speciell feeling to see stopped water beiing released and flowing again.
He who has "post 10" I wrote about before do sometimes filming at night with a speciell camera where we can see beavers rebuild and clogg the pipes again. Very interesting to see that.
I watch your videos and really like them. You do a good job and support your local farmers. Anybody can sit on their couch and watch, but too few people are prepared to get off their asses and do some real work. You come across. as being a really nice family man who is not afraid of work and supporting your wife and baby.. keep it up young man
Thank you very much! ;)
Why am I watching the videos? I usually watch while I'm working. I like to see the water flow but mostly to listen to the sound of the water. It is a very peaceful sound.
I love watching your content. It is interesting to see you dismantle a dam. I enjoy the drone to see your beautiful country. It's peaceful to listen to the water. And I enjoy that your content is kid friendly. Keep up the great work. Happy 1st Birthday to your beautiful daughter.
Thank you very much! ;)
I watch your videos because you are a hard working young man. Making a living and supporting your family. Love to hear the temperature over there. Really relaxing. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOUR PRINCESS!!
Thank you very much!
Love helping a young couple 1st starting out, listening to the water and watching the finish. ❤❤😊
It's hard to explain, but your videos are very relaxing to me. You are calm and methodical. I just like the videos.
Thank you very much!
It looks like some of those stick could be firewood to heat a home.😃You have good quality videos , the filming and the drone flight , I do like the collapse . Happy birthday to your daughter
Thank you! ;)
Hi @Kenislovas, I watch to watch the water drain down and also I find beaver engineering so cool, they obviously use the water to move massive loads compared to their own size, but they also obviously have a proven technique for dam building and I find it fascinating.
Thank you very much!
I respect you for the work you do for the farmers and the nature. I also like to see the collaps and the drone views, so we see more of your beautifull country.
Congratulations to you and your wife with the birthday 🎉❤
Thank you very much! Fred!
Thank you for saving the farmers and roads from flooding. I like seeing the dams collapse and just watching the progress you make.
I like watching your videos because it’s interesting to see how the dams were created by you taking them apart, plus when a whole dam gives way and especially the ones that roll over, it’s fun to see. Basically, your videos are entertaining, plus you are helping farmers and road departments.
Thanks Sheila! ;)
Watching you accomplish removing the dam and how much you are helping the surrounding areas is very rewarding to see it done without mechanical tools is like stepping back in history. Also the sounds of the water is very relaxing helps me relax in this stressful world we live in . Keep up the good work
Thanks! ;)
I watch you because...
It's a little different every time
It is pleasant watching you solve the problem of each dam
It is possible to continue working while watching you, not necessary to concentrate intently on your action
I enjoy seeing you make a difference, Being successful is good!
It is very satisfying seeing you dismantle these dams. You also speak well and have interesting dialogue. I don't enjoy many other people's dam videos, but I always love yours.
Thank you very much! Nice!
Love being outside. Peaceful, water flowing after dam removal. You are always respectful to others and the environment. Never vulgar. Enjoy the way you take the beaver dams down.
did another great job. amazing how tall the berms that beavers build are.
Thank You!
I love the sound of the water. collapses are fun and add spice. Each dam is similar yet unique and it is nice to know that problems are being solved. These are all reasons why I enjoy. Thank you for the videos
Thank you very much! :)
Mantas, I really appreciate your work you do. I really enjoy viewing the dam collapsed and how you go about it. You have a wonderful country to view, tell your daughter happy birthday on her big day and may she enjoy her own cake to eat as she what's to. David B.,Utah, USA. ❤❤❤.
Thank you very much David!
I watch the videos because I love to see the water release and I think your concern for the farmers and roads is admirable.
Thank you very much!
It is very relaxing to watch how you methodically dismantle the dams. Whether it is a slow and careful dig out or a very satisfying collapse. You are very conscientious and you work so hard at a seemingly endless job. I love to hear the rushing water and the sounds of nature and to see your beautiful countryside when you show your drone footage. I am housebound in an urban area in the UK and to see your videos give me a lift each time you post. I can almost feel your satisfaction of a job well done.
I wish you and your family well, take care and long may you continue to grow and prosper, because you thoroughly deserve it. 👏👏🇬🇧
Like the collapse, like to see someone doing something that's helping. So many people seem to only care about themselves its good to see someone who seems to want to help others.
Thanks!
Happy birthday to your small one! Reasons I watch: (1) Satisfying to see work lead to physical change/improvement. (2) Audio of rushing water is relaxing, while the release of pent up energy is a different kind of relaxing. (3) Dam collapse makes my eyes go from o.o to O.O
Thank you! :)
I have farmed all of my life and watching you preserve the land in the manner that you are doing this has evolved from when you first started making videos. Conservation of the land we use is an important part of preserving for the next generation to come. Thank you again
Thanks mate!
Damn.... those are Jurassic Park beavers😂..... its amazing how they handle such large branches. I have NO IDEA why I started watching you. I never thought this would EVER be interesting until post 10 and Im guessing thats why you popped up in suggestions. But oddly enough I do find it interesting....I think its amazing how these creatures can build and stop water with their natural ingenious skills....I also think its satisfying watching someone do something they enjoy....you are helping the farmers and now that I've been watching you I like your personality and think your cool and interesting. So there you go from someone who would have never searched for this type of entertainment.
Woah! Thank you very much! Good to know! :)
You asked me: Why do I like to watch your videos? Many reasons. 1. Nature: I enjoy water, trees, farms, wild woods, camping, fires, mountain trail exploration, and where nature intersects human activity such as urban exploration and abandoned places, etc. 2. Fascination with your work: Style of removal of dams using only a rake (no technology or messy loud explosives). 3. Relaxing to watch ambient videos with very little dialogue/speaking: I can think to myself as I watch and not be distracted by being told what to think or believe. :>
Thank you very much!
Hello
I used to do this with our 2 small streams in our forest in France.
No beavers there but needed clearing.
You are doing a great job.
Happy birthday to your daughter ❤
Thank you very much! ;)
Good work. ❤🇨🇦 I love watching you work. I love the ASMR sounds. I’m fascinated with how you dismantle the dams. I grew up around creeks as a child so daming them up and un-daming was also fun. I’m fascinated with how beavers can help with watersheds and prevent floods but also the damages they can do. They are protected here as the national symbol next to the maple leaf. I’ve seen how they can prevent drought conditions in some places so they have usefulness.
Wow,..a lot of big sticks in that one,..that was a big job,..well done,..
Thank you! ☺️
Great video! That was a big dam!thanks for you’re hard work! God bless you!❤️👏👍🍀
I watch because I love to see the water allowed to flow the way it should be to keep it from the fields. I love learning how it is done and would love to be able to help someone do it but too weak to be able to do on my own. It's just awesome to watch h a day sound of the water is soon calming!!!
Started watching Post10 (US guy) and RUclips said "what about this dude?", so I watched a video.
You are very easy to listen to (your English is brilliant - thank you).
I am interested in seeing how the beavers are managed. The impact they have and you make lovely videos. I'm jealous of your success but wouldn't deny you of it! You're doing a wonderful job 😊
Thank you very much! Nice to know! :)
Your beavers are a determined group of critters.
I'm a 72 yr old woman in Florida. I'm handicapped and can't get outside. With you, I can almost smell the air, see the breeze, hear the water, and be absolutely amazed at the size and weight of some of the limbs and branches you pull out of the dams. It's absolutely fascinating to me. And you're a nice person who enjoys what he does and that makes the videos fun, too.
I am not 72 and I don't live in Florida, but I am indoors most days so what the young lady said in her comment is exactly how your videos make me feel.
I just enjoy watching you take out the dams. I don't even know why. I could care less who knows that I watch this channel and Happy Birthday to your daughter.
Thank you very much! ;)
You're right, beavers won't reuse the trees limbs/branches that you remove. They consider the logs defective because their dam broke..., only out desperation will they reuse them.
There are some cage traps used for relocation of beavers to where they can benefit the area. Some hunters can catches beavers for food... I like seeing since you're providing a service for the farmer's fields.... keep on doing this.😎
Thank you!
I am from Australia where water is in low supply. You only hear running water when it rains . I had never really thought about Beavers until I started watching your videos , I love listening to the sound of the water and I really enjoy how you explain farming in your country and how you can live with nature to keep the levels of underground water around you fields . You are fun to watch and enjoy what you are doing . Keep these videos coming ❤
Might not be the biggest dam you ever tackled, but that is a helluva lot of water behind it! Part of the reason I watch is because I know you are doing a good service for farmers and farmers are usually very good people who could use some help like this. And it is just fun watching the dams tumble down.
Thank you very much!
I admire how your work benefits others and how you just get on with the work without bragging or unnecessary explanations. You are straightforward and friendly, wholesome, kind, and interesting. I like how you talk and I love hearing the water. Keep up the good work!
the sound of water is relaxing. i like watching you work. you are informative. am quite impressed by the dam sizes & the length & weight of materials used, which how strong they are for their size the only beavers we have in Australia are in zoos
Thank you!
Good one. It's interesting to see the impact of the removal of each stick. Sometimes the smaller ones have more impact than the big ones. It seems to me that you are more likely to have a rollover when you clear the base of the dam and maintain the minimum flow as long as possible.
I like watching people doing their everyday jobs. also, not a lot of talking except for the beginning and the end, this is very nice. and the sound of the water is almost ASMR. very relaxing videos compared to many other videos where the people just yell for 90% of the time for whatever reason.
Thank you very much! :)
I love watching you remove the dams. Each one is different, and I love the sound of the rushing water. It is very calming. Thank you for sharing your videos.
I watch your videos because it's nice to see a job well done. You work very hard and make sure the canal is clear. The farmers need those channels open to protect the fields so it's gratifying to see you helping them. It's relaxing. The sound of the water and how it looks as it cascades over the dam is very calming. It's also kind of fun to guess which part you'll do next and to see how it comes apart. The collapse is fun and it's neat how you plan it out. The different camera angles make it more interesting to see the different views.
Lastly, I am Lithuanian on my Dad's side. He was born here (US) and I never knew my grandparents so sadly I know very little about the old country. He's been gone for many years as well. No family stories on that side so it's nice to see the country and hear you speak. I wish I'd been born sooner to learn more of my family's history.
Tell your friends that the internet is full of stupid, selfish, self-centered people doing outrageous things to get attention. You are a kind, generous, hard-working young man who is doing a service for his friends and neighbors and that is immensely appealing. Bless you and your lovely family.
Thank you very much!
That was a hard one, great job as always..
Thanks!
the sound of running or falling water is soothing to me. you make these videos, I play them, and feel less bothered
I had foot surgery and have 3 weeks recovery time. So I’m watching lots of RUclips. Collapsing is so dramatic. Enjoyed much ! We love the scenery. Relaxing watching you work 😊
Wow, the babies grow up so fast. I love the flow of the water. It is calming. You do a lot to help your neighbors. Best of wishes to you and yours.🥰
Thank you!
love the collapses for sure but it is amazing to see what havoc a small animal can cause in nature
Your vids are very interesting, love seeing the water released, and the before and after shots.
Perhaps show the before drone shots, before you dismantle the dam. But keep it up. Very nice fella also.👍👍
Thank you very much!
I just love watching your videos as it is incredibly satisfying. Seeing how methodical you are, watching as the dam collapses, then the end result of all the water pouring downstream. You do such a brilliant job and I really appreciate your work and the time you spending videoing and editing your dam removals. Many thanks!
You are welcome!
Love the sound of the water, the water when it falls, and seeing your country.
Great video as always,your determination just carries on to rid the canals of beaver dams.this one gave you a good workout.just keep doing what your doing.👍👍👍😎😎😎
I like to watch a guy working hard, as well as the clamps, and how observant not to be trapped, or overwhelmed by it. Slowly, but surely you answer my questions as you describe the beavers. What needs to be done about them. Best of luck and most success to you.
One of Your videos popped up, I watched it and enjoyed the content and Your style of video. Beavers are clever builders and can be destructive, also. I think Your work is beneficial, good job. Be safe and Happy Birthday to Your Daughter🥳 Watching from the USA
Thank you very much! :)
I love the sound of the water flowing so relaxing and peaceful. Its also interesting how much different and the same dams are built depending on the materials in the area.
How much more of the season is left for dam removal until you have to wait till spring?
I can do it whole year. While it's make damage for farmlands and properties.
Greetings from the BIG SKY
Hey!
The dam collapses are dramatic and interesting. The drone footage is pleasant. Beautiful countryside. You’re bringing your country’s many facets to others all over the world in a positive way. I love to listen to the water flowing. Very calming. It is lovely to see such wholesome footage. Happy birthday to your daughter.
