    When you’re born into an environment and that’s all you know, you cope and you understand what has to be done. These individuals who live here have been doing it for a long time… They know how to handle it and it’s amazing

      Exactly….it is like the old “country mouse, city mouse” story where each thought their home was fine and safe, whereas the visitor found life there hard and scary. We just are adapted to where we grew up, and know the rules and techniques for our home area.

    Let me explain a little. When they say that Russia is a very cold country, this is only partly true. It's only cold outside. But we don't spend a lot of time outdoors: 5-10%. We spend 90% of our time indoors: home, work, school, university, gyms, swimming pools, theatres, cinema, museums, clubs, etc. It is very warm and comfortable there: 23-25 degrees Celsius. You can wear a T-shirt and shorts, and you will be warm. Russia has huge amount of gas, oil, coal, so heating is round-the-clock and very cheap.

      I live in Europe. We don't sleep with hats on. There is no place for propaganda under this wonderful clip. You have gas and coal, but not all of Russia is gasified, and you know it very well. But these facts have nothing to do with the clip.

In the heat you can only take off so much clothing before you will be arrested 😂😂😂. In the cold you can layer as much as you want. I don’t think I’d like to be as cold as the city in the video though.

      Interestingly, these cold continental climates, when they warm up in summer, are often plagued with swarms of flying insects such as black flies and mosquitos, which tend to drive the residents to their wits end. I guess the insects are more aggressive as they only have a short time during the year to reproduce.

    What an absolutely mind-blowing look at life in the brutal cold of Yakutsk and the Sakha Republic! This video provided unforgettable insights into how humans can not just endure, but thrive in some of the most extreme climates on Earth.
    The scenes of you two bravely venturing out into the record-breaking -63°C (-81.5°F) temperatures with proper protective gear were already intense enough. But witnessing the local Yakut people going about their daily lives - from children happily playing in the snow to adults commuting to work - in those unfathomable conditions was genuinely jaw-dropping. Their resilience is incredibly inspiring.
    I appreciated the thoughtful context around the generations-deep cultural adaptations that have allowed the Sakha people to carve out an existence in this frozen tundra environment. Everything from their clothing, shelter, transportation and even nutrition is precisely calibrated for survival. Yet their spirits seemed completely unfazed by the hostile cold.
    The footage inside people's homes also highlighted the incredible resourcefulness and community bonds that sustain them. From the warm, spacious interiors to family mealtimes, there was such an atmosphere of coziness and cheer despite the bitter world outside their walls.
    While the sights and facts around Yakutsk's extreme climate were astounding, it was ultimately the human stories and generational knowledge that made this such a rich, eye-opening experience. You transported viewers to the ends of the Earth to reveal the incredible warmth and vitality of the Sakha culture. An epic journey!

      He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.
      He telleth the number of the stars; he calleth them all by their names.
      Great is our Lord, and of great power: his understanding is infinite.
      The LORD lifteth up the meek: he casteth the wicked down to the ground.
      Sing unto the LORD with thanksgiving; sing praise upon the harp unto our God:
      Who covereth the heaven with clouds, who prepareth rain for the earth, who maketh grass to grow upon the mountains.
      He giveth to the beast his food, and to the young ravens which cry.
      He delighteth not in the strength of the horse: he taketh not pleasure in the legs of a man.
      The LORD taketh pleasure in them that fear him, in those that hope in his mercy.
      Praise the LORD, O Jerusalem; praise thy God, O Zion.
      For he hath strengthened the bars of thy gates; he hath blessed thy children within thee.
      He maketh peace in thy borders, and filleth thee with the finest of the wheat.
      He sendeth forth his commandment upon earth: his word runneth very swiftly.
      He giveth snow like wool: he scattereth the hoarfrost like ashes.
      He casteth forth his ice like morsels: who can stand before his cold?
      He sendeth out his word, and melteth them: he causeth his wind to blow, and the waters flow.
      He sheweth his word unto Jacob, his statutes and his judgments unto Israel.
      He hath not dealt so with any nation: and as for his judgments, they have not known them.
      Praise ye the LORD.

    I've been a subscriber to Kiun B for a long time now because I'm fascinated by how Yakutsian people have adapted and get on with their lives in a climate where most of us would struggle to survive. This is a great video guys, and provides a really good insight into how these amazing people don't just thrive, but enjoy life in a potentially deadly, but stunningly beautiful place. I'm really, really looking forward to your next videos from here and want to congratulate you both on going from strength to strength with your content.

      Praise ye the LORD: for it is good to sing praises unto our God; for it is pleasant; and praise is comely.
      The LORD doth build up Jerusalem: he gathereth together the outcasts of Israel.
      He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.
      He telleth the number of the stars; he calleth them all by their names.
      Great is our Lord, and of great power: his understanding is infinite.
      The LORD lifteth up the meek: he casteth the wicked down to the ground.
      Sing unto the LORD with thanksgiving; sing praise upon the harp unto our God:
      Who covereth the heaven with clouds, who prepareth rain for the earth, who maketh grass to grow upon the mountains.
      He giveth to the beast his food, and to the young ravens which cry.
      He delighteth not in the strength of the horse: he taketh not pleasure in the legs of a man.
      The LORD taketh pleasure in them that fear him, in those that hope in his mercy.
      Praise the LORD, O Jerusalem; praise thy God, O Zion.
      For he hath strengthened the bars of thy gates; he hath blessed thy children within thee.
      He maketh peace in thy borders, and filleth thee with the finest of the wheat.
      He sendeth forth his commandment upon earth: his word runneth very swiftly.
      He giveth snow like wool: he scattereth the hoarfrost like ashes.
      He casteth forth his ice like morsels: who can stand before his cold?
      He sendeth out his word, and melteth them: he causeth his wind to blow, and the waters flow.
      He sheweth his word unto Jacob, his statutes and his judgments unto Israel.
      He hath not dealt so with any nation: and as for his judgments, they have not known them.
      Praise ye the LORD.

    Growing up in NDak this video brings me home. We had engine plug-in heaters, and every place had outside plugs. I foresee these returning with the advent of EVs. The wind in the Dakotas is constant and brutal, with windchill temps occasionally well below -70F. Climate change has had extremely noticeable impact, especially on what plants we can garden. You get used to the cold; hockey, skiing, ice fishing. It’s a good life, creating tough, resilient and self confident children and self reliant adults.

      People can endure anything provided they've got company! I mean, were it not for contributing everyone's efforts, life in Yakutia would have been much much harsher. But you can see railroads, apartment blocks and enjoy all amenities there just like in every other place in the world despite extreme temperatures. Makes me marvel at what our human race can do when working in unison and not fighting each other.

      Это логично! Например в Санкт-Петербурге -30 это критическая температура, т.к. обычно такой мороз бывает раз в 10 лет. Но обычно температура не опускается ниже 25. А в школах занятия отменяют для 1-6 классов при -27, для 1-8 классов -30 и для всех классов при -33. В колледжах и университетах занятия не отменяют. Я помню в 2010 году было -34 и очень много снега. Много снега это примерно 1 метр уплотнённого снега. Конечно в городе его чистили, но население 5 миллионов человек, а ведь многие живут рядом с городом, это ещё около 1.5 миллионов. Машины не приспособлены к таким температурам. Техники для уборки не хватало. Люди тоже отвыкают от редких морозов. Но в квартирах тепло, т.к. центральное отопление. Мы даже окна открывали 😆 но особеность Санкт-Петербурга это высокая влажность и ветер с финского залива, (залив переходит в балтийское море). В этом году например было максимум -24 и снежно. Если без ветра, то в целом отлично))
      Главное видеть плючы во всем. Если холодно и снег, катвйся на лыжах, сноуборде, санках, коньках и ещё много на чём. Это ведь так здорово!

It was the coldest air temperature I’ve ever felt on my skin. It actually doesn’t feel that bad, as long as you have a hat, a big jacket, thick pants, thick boots, and thick mittens.
