I moved from South Carolina to Alaska. The winters are harsh at -40f sometimes, but moving from dense population and high crime - I'll never regret it. Every day I get to see beautiful landscapes, wildlife, and billions of stars and dancing auroras when the conditions are right. This is how humans were meant to live.
Why did you decide to move? If you don't mind me asking? I always wonder why people up sticks and move to such remote and seemingly inhospitable places...... ☺️
@@ashotofmercury Like I mentioned in the original post. Very dense populations, low test scores in the public schools, continued increase in cost of living, increasing crime rates, the heat and humidity that last 10 out of 12 months here, the lack of any natural scenery or landscapes, etc I am only 29. My wife and I have been married for almost 4 years now and we agree that we do not want to raise a family in that environment or live the rest of our lives there, so we would much rather be somewhere quiet, peaceful, beautiful and alone but just close enough to be employed and have access to our usual needs. Alaska was the best choice. We absolutely love it and we have zero plans on ever going back down to the lower 48.
So true. I am in the process of moving to a remote city near Arctic Citcle. I am so fascinated by the western most coastal city in Alaska where I can see the Far East Russia from where i am standing. Its very dangerous to live in Los Angeles city even suburban last morning I got chase from a very tall stranger 5.15 in the morning he tried to rob me and have you heard robbery and gun violence in downtown Los Angeles every day. I believe Greenland and Alaska are the place to be.
As an American, I wish we learned more about the people that populated our vast country, in particular those who live in the far north in Alaska. At least in my experience, so little was taught about our fellow Americans and North Americans who live in the frozen tundras and wilderness of Alaska and Canada. History was so focused on the European side of things that I know practically nothing about what life is or was like for the many tribes and natives of the US, Canada and even Mexico. Thanks DW for giving me some insight.

The documentary showed life of people that we, in India, have never even imagined. Thanks DW for showing us this wonderful documentary that gave me a new insight into the struggles of life faced by different people in this same globe that we live in.
This is a living challenge for Artic people, Amazing how Life there is about a jacket, more jackets and more... I live in southern Africa (Namibia) and you can sleep in the wild in a simple shirt and shorts. Here, you can relatively end a year without wearing a jacket (if not for rain reasons). Just amazing how our beautiful planet is diverse in every way.
For people like us living in India in warm conditions it is such a different experience to see how people fight the odds to live in difficult terrains. Thanks DW for the amazing visual experience. Always love your work.
Wonderful two-part documentary. I like how many different people and groups were included, with their different needs and perspectives. DW always produces such high-quality documentaries.
This documentary is very special as it covered almost all of the Arctic regions showing mesmerizing natural events and different portions of the 24 hours. I call it a real infotainment. Thanks for bringing this fine and superb documentary to us!
I had the joy and privilege of seeing the Northern Lights while visiting Saskatchewan. It truly is an experience that not only can be seen, but felt to the innermost core. I can compare the feeling similar to being in the delivery room, when your wife gives birth, and you get to hold your child for the first time. That feeling. Minus the noise. Lol. Awesome documentary! Be well everyone and Happy Holidays!
You can only see on the documentary,you don’t have a Education,we have been there.......these are locals or college guys,jobless wastrels ,without proper education.
World's finest leftist progressive propaganda, paid for by the German taxpayer and created by the German government, yes. No other entity has this kind of resources.
@@mitzelblick Leftist? You are so naive, German has their interest in mind. Anybody that disagrees with you, you blanketed them "Leftist". What are you, a hick?
Great documentary! Thank you...Made me cry....the stars, the Northern Lights, so beautiful. It's heartbreaking to see what is really going on in the environment. We need to find a way to stop drilling for oil and have an alternative was to get energy.
With some of the towns, "peaceful" is a deceptive label. Greenland has had serious problems with drinking and violence for several decades, and work conditions could be gruelling sometimes. Actually I remember reading a reportage fifteen years ago about people in the little town at 4:16; it included a line that stuck in my head at once, because it was so weirdly funny: "This is one of the most violent communities in the world, but people here live beyond fear". Now that's a left turn phrase you didn't see coming... ;)
Important fact to mention: the Inuit and First Nations had no alcohol in their diet until the Europeans brought firewater. The natives had never developed the enzymes that break down and detoxify alcohol whereas Europeans evolved and adapted to alcohol over thousands of years. (This is also why women have less tolerance than men, it's not just smaller size, it's also fewer enzymes, because historically women drank less than men.) This enzyme deficiency caused natives to suffer greatly from the effects of alcohol, from addiction, to behavioural changes, to liver damage, etc. I'm not familiar with Greenland but I'm pretty sure the same biology holds true, they're the same Inuit as in the Canadian arctic islands, they just kept migrating a little further east.
Both places are very beautiful between Greenland and Alaska, I am watching you from the united States and appreciate you for sharing your excellent documentary filming with us.
Good production. I lived and flew small planes,hunted and fished through Alaska for 12 years. Had a great time. A few close calls. Decided it was time to go back to northern Rockies.
Working on Ellesmere Island for 14 summers, the increasing amount of permafrost melt craters all over the tundra was staggering. With melting permafrost comes release of methane, and a warmer Arctic Ocean allows methane hydrates to melt and release methane as well. All coastal settlements and work places have their work cut out for them.
Amazing place to stay. Looks full of nature struggle, but What makes life beautiful is to appreciate the place and learn how to survive. This is interesting documentary that changes life perpective more simple. The happiness of the people is humble and pure... salute to the Arctic people ...
Both Parts 1 and 2 really informative and interesting. Technology and commercial resources have had an impact on the indigenous population along the land margins of the Arctic Circle. Language, culture and just a way of life are under threat, yet somehow humankind finds a way to make a living in these remote parts of the World, developing a kind new culture. Sadly though, wild-life is at as much risk of disappearing as it is in the interiors of our continents. Keep the Videos coming DW.
DW,the reason why I love your stories is that they are Informative,interesting n very human Living at other end of the world ,we are humbled by such stories of people s endurance n acceptance Thanks DW
DW greetings from Sydney Australia,great video,I enjoyed it immensely.... thankyou for allowing me to visually visit the artic,it's a place I'd never visit in reality
Thank you for such a beautiful documentary on a region of the world we can only read about and never possibly visit. Your concern of climate change needs to be shared worldwide.
The native people way of life and culture around the world has been affected for many centuries, climate change has just made it a big challenge. Love the northern lights
Great doc! We truly need to respect these beautiful areas more in the future rather than taking from them so much as it affects us all in the end. Working with the environment and respecting it is a good path to follow looking into the future if we want to survive as a race.
Absolutely stunning landscape.. I find my way of life too easy and feel immense respect for anyone who lives their lifestyle. All I do is go to the store and everything is supplied. I would've rather grown up in a different culture. It gives you lessons that prepare you for life no matter where you are. Fabulous documentary. Thanks

@@odinx1856 Thanks for responding to my comment, Odin. That’s interesting that you only get a few hours of dim sunlight per day. I’m assuming that the far north of the country (e.g. Tromsø) barely even gets that. Do children play outside during the day if it’s warm enough? I’m assuming that streetlights are constantly on, as well?
@@_jmeg_3436 Cheers Jeff. Yes Tromsø is nearby and has about the same. It`s interesting but so is a "normal" cycle, it just depends what we are used to i guess. Yes activity human is high although not the same as in the summer and 24 hours of daylight. Streetlights are on a timer and off midnight. Lightpolution makes this place less special, because almost noone get to see stars, the milky way, the northen lights, planets etc because of artificial light. Although for those interested it`s possible to find a good place nearby to observe, but in a day to day life it`s too bright.
From what I remember, Narwhal meat is also high in Vitamin C, which is very hard to come by in Arctic foods. This makes it even more important to the people who hunt it.
The Canadian government heavily subsidized remote Arctic communities. Food and amenities are flown in on a regular basis. They are not living in 1865 anymore
Thanks for exploring . I never ever be there but through you i can see and feel it.What a natural beauty. I love cold my Birth place is also cold but no like this 😂😂🤔👍🇳🇵❤️✌️🙏
the subject of global warming is superficially brought up over and over again, that made me think the narrator has an agenda, amazing so much change within ONE year!
Climate change denial must stop. This documentary is good education for those who deny that climate change is happening. Thank you once again for a great documentary DW.
Theres a big difference between skepticism and denial. Many, many, many predictions by so called experts have fallen flat in my lifetime and that shouldn't be convienetly ignored.
@@tobias1959 yhh youre right, you don't just land in the arctic and survive. Requires deep knowledge from the natives. Especially in the winter with months of no day light. I still wonder how they survive that
