After building the log cabin alone in the forest for over a year, I now embark the next years challenges. Last year I ventured out, found a suitable spot, chopped down and dragged the necessary trees and shaped them into a four wall log cabin. Here is the video: ruclips.net/video/BBX5qh09OIE/видео.html&ab_channel=ErikGrankvist This year I built the log structure for the roof, laid the complete roof using birch bark and abandoned clay tiles, laid the floor, built an underground root cellar for food storage and much more. If you want to see what happens next on the build, click this video: ruclips.net/video/CvaJtxJcfuA/видео.html I am now 21 and have built this log cabin from the materials found in my own forest in Sweden with only the simple hand tools I could carry in my backpack. Just like our Forefathers did. I had no previous experience in building, gathering materials or even filming. So I started studying the old arts myself and learning from my grandfather and mentor Åke Nilsson. I filmed everything myself using a tripod and edited this video so you can follow my journey and hopefully learn as I do. There is still a lot of work left to actualize my dream. To become self-reliant. For example I want to start a full out garden so I can live out here only reliant on that and the forest. Big goal and a lot of work.

I find this approach to videos very interesting. No lengthy intro, no talking, just the universal concept of a guy building a cabin in the middle of nowhere. It’s nice for a change. Love the stuff mate
@@The-Azure-Knight Its diet. I was a bodybuilder for years, natural but even with what I thought was natural cooked food screwed me up. Psoriasis and arthritis, shoulder and back problems. I went on 100% raw fruit 4 years ago. The first year was hell on earth but my body seemed to know, to force me to continue. I am psoriasis, arthritis, pain free and back to body building on fruit. We are frugivores. All other food is survival food because our species migrated north. If interested. Go grapes, watermelon, berries and citrus for the first year. Build with bananas and medjool dates.
Agreed. Don’t know why but I’ve really enjoyed watching these bushcraft channels. Check out Ana Bushcraft and Primate Villa. It’s so amazing the innovation what they can do with just the materials in nature. Truly amazing.
I love the fact that there is no music and no talking Just the sound you create and the sound of nature makes this something very special and relaxing to watch. Also, that dog is living the dream.
It's not the fact that he can build a log cabin from scratch that makes me feel less than; it's the fact he can do all that and film and edit it perfectly as well.
Many of these are professional film crews. But even so, the skills are tremendous. And all credit to the chap. … I’ve learned a lot from watching this type of video
Especially in a world where everyone has the constant need to be seen, heard, and make noise. This guy reminds me that quiet and reserved yet productive people do exist.
I can't imagine the hours of work, the pain, patience, tiredness and efforts you put in that timber house. You must have had so many blisters and dreams of wood
The hours of work pain and patience is what entices me. Sounds amazing. Getting drone footage on an ice lake on the other hand sounds boring as fuck. I hope you value hard work when you get older. I know i didnt when i was 20.
Wow the patience, fortitude, determination and ethics this young man has is astounding!!! And the work of art he created in this HOME, well he should be extremely proud of himself I’m literally amazed. I could not stop watching this amazing beautiful piece of art being built and the filming and photos and quietness of this documentary is purely another piece of art? Thank you! God bless you in all your endeavors.
Watched this together with my 12 year old son and it was more like a movie experience. The amount of interesting things to see is amazing. Not only your brilliant craftsmanship but also the beautiful nature and wildlife. We would like to thank you for taking us on this journey Erik.
wow, thats good parenting, good to see parents showing thr kids informative and what a life really, otherwise most of the kids watch cringe shows and stuffs. cheers.
Even as someone who has no interest in leaving modern society to go live in the wilderness, these videos are so cool to watch. I love seeing people put their heart and soul into building something.
Beautiful video,but sorry to say if loads people decided to build log cabins in the forest,we would have no trees or forests left and would probably have to have electricity to survive,so may not be so environmentally friendly!
I wish I could find work as satisfying as this, just as a job. Seems a lot more fulfilling than coding (or construction in a typical modern context, for that matter)
@@connieh6136 Timber is much more sustainable than the other building materials we use. Most houses in Europe use an average of 22 mature trees anyways (especially as the houses are much bigger). Trees are a renewable resource so actually much better for the environment to use. If replenished (as seen in evan's clips of planting pines) then this process is a good way to remove carbon from the atmosphere (as the carbon from the origional trees is then stored in his home and new trees are planted which suck up more carbon). So this is a misconception that this is less environmentally friendly! But obviously we should use the houses that we already have, rather than everyone ditching their houses to build log cabins... but if you are going to build new this is much more sustainable than modern house building techniques. Best x
When I was 20-21 I was still a kid living at home just doing stupid stuff with my friends... but this guy, is a Man in every sense of the word. Humbling, impressive, amazing.
@@BZXCLANPS3 its nice to look at but not insanely amazing. remember those are modern day tools he bought from a hardware store. A build like this having to make your own hammers and stone axes increases the difficulty of this by a lot.
@@eliaslorsen2941 если бы не было многоэтажек,то территорий дикого леса было куда меньше к сегодняшнему времени,8 млрд чел поселить на плоскости в одно-двухэтажных домах задача не из лёгких)
I’m only 13 min through the video and so far what blows my mind is not that you’re building this on your own with CRAZY good cinematography, but that you really shower in a cold river after a snow storm 🤯
Idk why RUclips recommended me this video but wow. He did such a good job, I love how he made it look easy peasy going in the water in winter! 🤣 Herregud! Erik är en riktig viking! Bra jobbat och tack så mycket! 🎉 jag hoppas att du är nöjd med resultatet.
This is what a social influencer should look like. Hard work, dedication, self-respect. Crazy honestly to do a build on this level solo. Quarried his own stone block. Probably the most authentic self build iv seen. Ever.
@@LAkadian idk if you’re just being sarcastic (I cant tell) but they mean creators on social media. People that have a platform. They’re called social influencers because obviously they’re influencing the people that watch their content
i'm fascinated thinking about the technicalities. -How often did you need to head back and charge or replace camera batteries or get extra supplies? -how many camera batteries do you have and how picky do you need to be about shots to make them last? -how far are you from a town or electricity/stores, etc? -Do you own the land or did you need permits to build? - It must be a pain going back for the camera after each shot. Either way, Your documentation is hugely entertaining and inspiring. Best of luck on the next one.
@@coryvore ya there's some very basic patterns it can fly once you lock onto a target. It's absolutely valid that he did all this alone, just a lot of crap to lug around lol
It’s incredibly possible that he had a solar charger and powerful enough batteries to last the entirety of another one charging. I know Les Stroud did that when he would do long term filming in the wilderness. He probably got drone shots afterward to showcase where he was
One of my favorite parts about this (apart from how amazing it is and how peaceful and calming the whole environment feels) is how in the portion called “Vorsteh Puppy” he really isn’t getting annoyed by the dog messing around and stuff, he’s just letting the dog do it’s own thing, whether that’s playing with the dog toy or digging in the fire pit, it was just weirdly wholesome to me. Absolutely loved every bit of this video. Bravo 👏
Случайно попалось видео на другом ресурсе (другое видео этого замечательного Мастера) начала смотреть и "залипла" - как завороженная, пока до конца не досмотрела! Теперь специально нашла здесь на любимом ютуб и сразу подписалась! Потрясающая Сила Воли, Самодисциплина невероятная! С таким Мужчиной как за каменной стеной, нигде не пропадешь. А красавец какой! Нравится очень формат - все четко без лишних разговоров, красота пейзажей, волшебные звуки природы и работа Мастера - все Супер! Отдыхаешь душой просто. В наше то время, это просто находка , Самородок! Спасибо за потрясающий контент и волшебство!👍🧚🌞
This is very relaxing to watch , despite all the hard work, with the sounds of nature and construction blending. Your editing is first rate because I know how overwhelming it can sometimes be. A craftsman in two worlds.
I hear you - have had this video playing on and off today while doing other stuff and there's something incredibly soothing about it. Which probably helps explain why (despite the enormous physical effort) our inspiring friend Erik did this in the first place.
@@redrock8259 It's a tree for crying out loud haha "skinning it alive" you're talking like it's an animal. Not saying trees aren't important as they obviously are
@@jasonchandler2754 You're not saying it, yet you're implying something similar which is devaluating them (I assume because they don't express feelings like animals, which not even all animals do) AND you're devaluating Orhan's concern for the trees, which may not be dramatic but it's also not very nice. The important point is, though and apart from semantics: trees are living beings, even though very "primitive" and they appear to be skinned alive which would be not cool. So Orhan has a very valid point and is right to adress the issue. In this case, though, he doesn't really, because the skinning seems to be done correctly, which causes regenerative and therefore deniably little harm to the tree.

I appreciate that you left in parts where, as you were working, something or other collapsed, and offscreen you would have to drag the necessary pieces back again. It really hammers home the idea of what this is: arduous labour, well and true. Some people have this idealized notion that living out in the woods self-sufficiently is some fun aesthetic dream to escape their current life, when in fact it's just as rough if not more so, for different reasons. It's something that you have to be passionate about, like you are. It takes courage and willpower to move on from failure, and oftentimes that failure is something that you had no control over. For people for whom this prospect meant life and death--for whose families the work done each day signified whether or not they would shudder out in the cold another night--you really painted a vivid picture of just how hard it would have been for them while also showing the methods they needed to succeed.
Hi Erik, I am 77, live in Namibia and just love to watch you at work. It''s amazing. My Dad as a carpenter and I loved to watch him at work, I even helped him some times. I hope some of your peers {those just loafing around} are watching you at word and get inspired. God bless you and thank you for sharing.
Да,вот это труженик За такой труд,смелость,бесстрашие и адаптацию в глухом лесу,а больше всего за мастерство,умение и упорство надо давать награду народного героя.Смотрела от начала до конца без отрыва.Лучшее кино среди всех худ.фильмов.Сама просто загорелась таким мужеством и силой такого молодого парнишки.Низкий поклон тебе,сынок.Когдв колол камни,то мне было самой трудно,глядя фильм и даже устала как-будто пришлось это все самой.Еще раз спасибо за такое мастерство и красоту.. .
Все комменты - грёбаный бред! Это же релаксирующий проект. Таких видео дофига! Ну типа один в дикой природе! Вау! Что бы собрать денег на рекламе. Каким идиотом нужно быть, что бы принимать это за чистую монету? Для начала вопрос - кто снимает?
I’m mind blown by your skills and knowledge on this build. I’ve watched several cabin builds from different people and you are definitely the highest quality and most thorough. Nice work my man, very inspirational
Березок жалко, погибнут деревья после такого обдирания коры… А так парню можно посочувствовать - в его возрасте надо о женитьбе думать, а он один годами по лесам шастает

I think a life like this is what we were meant to have. but mostly we find ourselves surrounded by cement and auto exhaust. I plan to revisit this listing often to continue to get the benefits such as you describe.
My great uncle built a log cabin with all hand tools and pulleys with his best friend many years ago in a very similar fashion in Door County Wisconsin USA. That cabin is still standing today 100+ years later and looks as if it was built yesterday minus the old soul to the building. Love this video so much and it’s almost like I get a glimpse of what my great uncle and his friend did to build our cabin (still in the family to this day even though it was sold out of the family at one point!)
Massive respects to you Erik.The sight of you working alone-methodically ,determintation in every drop of sweat , makes us all question how committed we are to our own ideals. I raise my glass to you &new homestead.
I've seen a lot of videos like this on RUclips, but this one is utterly unbelievable. The amount of hard work, discipline and dedication is truly inspiring.
Yeah, the way this is shot is incredible. The different camera angles, aerial shots, and great pacing on the camera cuts makes this even more enjoyable to watch.
Yup, delivers exactly what the title promises without a lengthy intro, shout outs and promotions or other fluff. And of course, no unnecessary talking. This is the Swedish way.
ok i search his channel, find where i see her last time, watch next movie and check the text below the movie. She's fine :D i can continue with this movie :D
@@NicoFabularnie i was wondering myself is something happened to her. im glad thats not the case. I choose to believe you without looking into myself lol
A lot of us sometimes think 'fuck it, I'm leaving all this and going to live in a forest' and you actually went ahead and did it, and probably are much happier for it. Also the nature shots are amazing.
@1:26:32 the fact that he put the newspaper article of himself underneath the floorboards instead of putting it on display just shows how humble this guy is. I have nothing but respect for you, Erik! I can't imagine how much you've had to sacrifice over the past (at this point) 3 years, but I'm sure it'll be worth it. Keep up the good work!
It's kind of a tradition over here in Sweden. At least where I live in the north. In all the older buildings I have been renovating the original builders names (or an article) is written on the back of a board in a wall or something. In my house they tagged the hatch to the root cellar :)
Огромный тяжёлый труд. Молодец. С удовольствием посмотрел. Уважение к таким людям... Мы можем гораздо больше. Главное иметь желание и ставить перед собой цели и идти к ним....
Being a builder myself I’m speechless on how amazing this guy is. Truly inspiring. I’m also speechless on how he just takes a leisurely swim in what looks like freezing conditions surrounded by snow. If I went in that water I wouldn’t come out alive.
I am a Material Scientist, teacher, builder and have a keen interest in medical matters. You need to understand that when the human body is exposed to low temperatures and the core temperature is lowered , this can result in death. Humans maintain a temperature of 36.7 degrees Celsius, and sitting in water say at 5 degrees is quite dangerous. I teach construction at high school , here in Australia , and show students correct lifting techniques. Unless he used block and tackle, I do not understand how one man can lift some of those logs. Lifting weights wrongly will damage the spine and make the person unable to work. Seeing him lift that very heavy rock shows me he is doing things obviously wrong. There are many ways he can be injured, in particular, the receptive hitting of timber with an axe, He will suffer RSI, Repetative Strain Injury. I have used axes and mattocks and know, my wrists are not in best shape, he will develop early artrithtis.
@@daverivem4411 nailed it. I think the skills can be learned through trial and error. The actual issue is the land AKA money. You’d need to essentially have no debts and a lot of freaking cash for land. I know some areas are extremely affordable, but with this many trees and this much seclusion, this young man either got access through family or bought this for a lot of cash.
Start by turning off the t.v. Then disconnect the power and chuck the t.v. you're closer to this young man's lifestyle with this one act than you may imagine.
Поразительно, что в наше время есть интерес, желание делать все это в молодом возрасте и с огромным увлечением! Особая благодарность твоим наставникам и тем, кто помог в этом пути! Браво! 👍

Starts with a cabin, after that he looks for a woman. Then other ppl wanna live and learn with you (now you're a patriarch), after that u make some rules (now u have a group). When u pass away the group need someone experienced to be the new patriarch (now u have politcs).... Some generations later> today.
I think about doing this every day for like the last year. I work full time over 20 and hour and I can't even afford to rent a shitty mold filled basement apartment. I'm homeless living out of my uncle's house. All I have is my job and my car that I can barely afford gas for now too. I am tired of societies bullshit. I try so hard but it's never enough and I'll never get ahead.
Я залипла и не могу оторваться...это как медитация для меня. Сплошной восторг и восхищение этим человеком!👏🏻👏🏻Словно я там рядом и чувствую запах древесины, дождя, морозного утра. Это что-то невероятное. Спасибо, что поделились своей потрясающей жизнью.🔥🔥🔥👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Never thought I'd be fascinated by something like this, the fact that its been an hour watching this and I'm not close to being bored amazes me and also the peaceful energy from this video made me realise what I'm missing in my life (Time with myself), this is amazing bro
I love how you don't talk or spend most of the time looking into the camera stating the obvious in your videos, it's so refreshing and makes for a very meditative experience watching them. Incredible work in your first two years! Thank you so much for taking us along on your journey, it's very inspiring.
You have given us insight into the long forgotten survival skills of our ancestors. On behalf of all bushcraft enthusiasts across the world, thank you for letting us vicariously experience your successful builds and adventures in the forest!
My whole family has spent the last two nights watching this compilation. We are all so impressed! This was so fun to witness. Thank you for sharing this with us.
This was just wonderful to watch. An incredible education of knowledge, determination and creativity. Eric, your skills as a craftsman, woodsman, and filmmaker set a very high bar. Well done. Remarkable!
That moment in the woods, when he just floated in the water... I felt that. Imagine the sight, the smells and the sound (of silence). Must be the closest thing to heaven on earth. Thank you, Erik. Inspiring on so many levels.
Досмотрел до конца. Усидчивость и работоспособность поражают. Видео подлечило нервную систему. И в добавок приятно наблюдать, как человек в единение с природой отдаёт себя труду, отойдя от забот мегополиса. Супер, круто, класс😁👍🏻
Кто то мечтает о единении с природой? Природа бывает разная...) В большинстве своем она пытается вас сожрать и иногда у неё это получается. Раньше чаще получалось, когда люди вынуждены были жить в этом единении с природой
This video just reminded me to be more patient and how uptight I’ve become recently. When he kept dropping the wood and just looking at it, I was like damn I would have been so annoyed and probably screamed lol. And I would have given up. I used to not be a quitter but I think life and the past few years have made me very angry and impatient. Patience is a virtue and brings wonderful things

WELCOME BACK ERIC. I'M SURE I COULD SPEAK FOR MANY TO SAY WE MISSED YOU... THE CABIN... THE DOGS... the snorting pig too! To see all this in one video brings the memories flooding back. Here's wishing you continued success and perhaps much more besides. Above all, I've never seen you looking miserable, so you're obviously doing things "just right"!! Best wishes again from UK.
This is one of the reasons why I love Sweden, it has an endless supply of trees and nature. It's perfect for people who wants to stay connected with mother nature.
@@ulbertthescharfrichter5667 id like to man I haven't done my research yet I'm interested to look and see what is out there how much it cost and how far out away from society I could get
Around a year ago, I stumbled upon your "1 year alone" video and boy was I in for an amazing ride. Seeing the cabin now is just amazing, but what amazes me more is the message that I'm getting. That we deserve everything we want if we are willing to work for it. Thank you for this reminder! You are an inspiration! 🙂
@@Merzui-kg8ds I think this is northern Sweden, a few acres of land is not for the filthy rich up there. Most of Sweden is forrest. As if you moved to remote Canada.
@@Merzui-kg8ds Yes things have changed over the centuries and it is difficult to find land that is not already owned by someone. They usually sell it for the going rate which is expensive, hence why people like "the woodlander" here on RUclips works to connect groups of people to buy land collectively, and then begin the long process of living on it.
I thoroughly enjoyed watching this young man build muscle throughout the video. And watching the puppy grow. So much growth in so many ways. What a delight for all of us who are lucky enough to watch this video…. There’s just something here that gives a genuine feeling of hope inspiration and encouragement.
Holy crap, Erik you're a badass‼Making a cabin by yourself with no power tools, breaking boulders, bathing in icy water, working in the rain and making amazing videos. Great job man, i'm subscribing. Where did you get such amazing skills, knowledge and experience at 20 years old? This is perfection 👍
This is hands down one the of the most beautiful videos I've ever seen on YT, not just seeing you build a cabin, cooking, and playing around with the dogs but also the cinematography, the way you film certain parts made it feel like a movie and that ending shot was just beautiful.
I have watched so many videos like this, and it still amazes me every time that these people have dedicated so much time and patience into learning how to do something like this. So fascinating and so insanely impressive. Thank you for sharing with us!
@@8risk I'm usually not like this, but yes they can, especially in places like here in Alaska. We got some tough women and while yes most majority that can do this are men doesn't mean women can't.
Эрик, хвала тому, кто передал тебе эти знания и навыки! Сегодня так мало молодых мужчин, способных развести костёр, не то чтобы построить дом, как ты. Береги себя! Желаю тебе здоровья и новых творческих идей!
Tak, bo jeszcze sam weźmie i uwierzy w to 🤣 hahaha, że samodzielnie zrobił ten dom (bez pomocy kolegów)😂🤣😂. Siłacz z niego jak kilka koni. I deski sam wystrugaĺ i wyciął toporkiem😅😅😅. I zdążył przed deszczem i zimnem. Ale ściema!
We have a saying in Jamaica: "You see a man's face, you don't see his heart;" so when I saw you haul your first few logs by hand, I thought to myself, Are you sure about this?! Two years later I decided to drop by, and am so proud of what you have accomplished. As an architect, you a layman(?) have taught me a lot with this video alone; so now I must go and check out the others.
Very few people in this world has determination like Erik and the skill/talents/natural gifts to be able to pull it off. Heck, people can't even change their own brakes for god's sakes. This type of project is out of reach for 95% of the population. I know exactly what it's like to work on project's lasting 5+ years. I know the sacrifice he has gone through, and it looks like it paid off for him.
ну и на сколько он крут ? явно он не ВСЕ делал в одиночку,и дверь не отливал металлическую входную,и где то брал еду,саженцы и прочее,с деньгами и подходящими инструментами конечно можно дом построить. но он ли его строил? и в одиночку ли?
As a fellow swede…this really makes you paus and just question your own reality in a poetic way. Nice done, and good job with recording at the same time!
What you have done is commendable. As an older adult now who built houses, I feel compelled to tell you that you need to take it easy on your body. I did the things you do and have no cartilage left in my right hip. Just because you can do it, doesn't mean that you should. I say this with respect and concern.
My dad was the same and caused himself issues. I saw this and was too careful with how much I did and caused myself issues. Looking back I realise how dumb it was to avoid physical labour. It’s a balance.
Agreed, aint worth a bad back or a lost leg. When ya get used to hard work and ya get old an crippled up ya go stir crazy when ya can't do it anymore. Make sure ya stretch out every day.
Man, as a fellow established carpenter, I must say I am extremely impressed by some of the things you accomplished solo in this, firstly because of the danger of some of the tasks to attempt alone, but the skill and techniques you used. Very well done. Love to see this in this day and age.👏🏽
You are one tough man, that was a lot of hard work and you really did a beautiful job. Years ago, when I was young, I also built a log cabin out in the mountains in Montana, raise my daughter there. I can really appreciate all the effort that has gone into your wonderful log house. Job very well done.
Wow, this is a lovely thing you did for your little girl. To offer the opportunity to this child, to understand the capacity we have, within, to do just about anything. She must have learned so much form your example. Thank you for not being one of this wackos, who, instead might raise their child on things like “drag queen storytime”
I can't imagine how many hard hours that must be! We are seeing now your incredible progress, but I think nobody really understand how much energy you put in this work. You're a big inspiration for me! You are a living example of the saying "don't tell them, show them". Thank you Erik!!
After building the log cabin alone in the forest for over a year, I now embark the next years challenges. Last year I ventured out, found a suitable spot, chopped down and dragged the necessary trees and shaped them into a four wall log cabin. Here is the video: ruclips.net/video/BBX5qh09OIE/видео.html&ab_channel=ErikGrankvist
This year I built the log structure for the roof, laid the complete roof using birch bark and abandoned clay tiles, laid the floor, built an underground root cellar for food storage and much more.
If you want to see what happens next on the build, click this video:

I am now 21 and have built this log cabin from the materials found in my own forest in Sweden with only the simple hand tools I could carry in my backpack. Just like our Forefathers did. I had no previous experience in building, gathering materials or even filming. So I started studying the old arts myself and learning from my grandfather and mentor Åke Nilsson. I filmed everything myself using a tripod and edited this video so you can follow my journey and hopefully learn as I do.
There is still a lot of work left to actualize my dream. To become self-reliant. For example I want to start a full out garden so I can live out here only reliant on that and the forest. Big goal and a lot of work. So if you are interested in my journey then definitely subscribe.

Not sure why RUclips felt the need to recommend this video to me, a person who can barely build a birdhouse, but I'm very glad it did. Amazing video.
I’m just so amazed since I can’t make even a shelf.😭
You're equipped to build a cabin now tho
You made my day of laughter thank you. 😂
Last chance to learn I guess 👀
Wait you guys can at least make something??

@@The-Azure-Knight Its diet. I was a bodybuilder for years, natural but even with what I thought was natural cooked food screwed me up. Psoriasis and arthritis, shoulder and back problems. I went on 100% raw fruit 4 years ago. The first year was hell on earth but my body seemed to know, to force me to continue. I am psoriasis, arthritis, pain free and back to body building on fruit. We are frugivores. All other food is survival food because our species migrated north.
If interested. Go grapes, watermelon, berries and citrus for the first year. Build with bananas and medjool dates.
Это не реально,это просто сказка, молодец.
The effort and skill you put in is mind-blowing! How many others dream of building something this incredible with their own hands?
This is a great comment,why hasn't anyone responded to you?
Agreed. Don’t know why but I’ve really enjoyed watching these bushcraft channels. Check out Ana Bushcraft and Primate Villa. It’s so amazing the innovation what they can do with just the materials in nature. Truly amazing.
I love the fact that there is no music and no talking Just the sound you create and the sound of nature makes this something very special and relaxing to watch.

Even as someone who has no interest in leaving modern society to go live in the wilderness, these videos are so cool to watch. I love seeing people put their heart and soul into building something.
Beautiful video,but sorry to say if loads people decided to build log cabins in the forest,we would have no trees or forests left and would probably have to have electricity to survive,so may not be so environmentally friendly!
@@connieh6136 that won’t even be likely a lot of people randomly decide to make A log cabin
I wish I could find work as satisfying as this, just as a job. Seems a lot more fulfilling than coding (or construction in a typical modern context, for that matter)
Heart, soul, and a lot of money. which i assume come from his farmer parents. farmers tend to be fairly rich in sweden.
@@connieh6136 Timber is much more sustainable than the other building materials we use. Most houses in Europe use an average of 22 mature trees anyways (especially as the houses are much bigger). Trees are a renewable resource so actually much better for the environment to use. If replenished (as seen in evan's clips of planting pines) then this process is a good way to remove carbon from the atmosphere (as the carbon from the origional trees is then stored in his home and new trees are planted which suck up more carbon). So this is a misconception that this is less environmentally friendly! But obviously we should use the houses that we already have, rather than everyone ditching their houses to build log cabins... but if you are going to build new this is much more sustainable than modern house building techniques. Best x

i'm fascinated thinking about the technicalities. -How often did you need to head back and charge or replace camera batteries or get extra supplies? -how many camera batteries do you have and how picky do you need to be about shots to make them last? -how far are you from a town or electricity/stores, etc? -Do you own the land or did you need permits to build? - It must be a pain going back for the camera after each shot. Either way, Your documentation is hugely entertaining and inspiring. Best of luck on the next one.
Exactly my point. And who is flying the drone while he’s working?
@@coryvore depending on the type of drone u have it’ll fly itself. A lot of the dji drones do it.
@@coryvore ya there's some very basic patterns it can fly once you lock onto a target. It's absolutely valid that he did all this alone, just a lot of crap to lug around lol
It’s incredibly possible that he had a solar charger and powerful enough batteries to last the entirety of another one charging. I know Les Stroud did that when he would do long term filming in the wilderness. He probably got drone shots afterward to showcase where he was
@@mxlxolm I've speculated on it too. He could do a whole episode showing these processes too. That's just as impressive
One of my favorite parts about this (apart from how amazing it is and how peaceful and calming the whole environment feels) is how in the portion called “Vorsteh Puppy” he really isn’t getting annoyed by the dog messing around and stuff, he’s just letting the dog do it’s own thing, whether that’s playing with the dog toy or digging in the fire pit, it was just weirdly wholesome to me. Absolutely loved every bit of this video. Bravo 👏

@@redrock8259 he had already cut them down so it's not as if it's really any different
@@jasonchandler2754 You're not saying it, yet you're implying something similar which is devaluating them (I assume because they don't express feelings like animals, which not even all animals do) AND you're devaluating Orhan's concern for the trees, which may not be dramatic but it's also not very nice.
The important point is, though and apart from semantics: trees are living beings, even though very "primitive" and they appear to be skinned alive which would be not cool. So Orhan has a very valid point and is right to adress the issue.
In this case, though, he doesn't really, because the skinning seems to be done correctly, which causes regenerative and therefore deniably little harm to the tree.

I appreciate that you left in parts where, as you were working, something or other collapsed, and offscreen you would have to drag the necessary pieces back again. It really hammers home the idea of what this is: arduous labour, well and true. Some people have this idealized notion that living out in the woods self-sufficiently is some fun aesthetic dream to escape their current life, when in fact it's just as rough if not more so, for different reasons. It's something that you have to be passionate about, like you are. It takes courage and willpower to move on from failure, and oftentimes that failure is something that you had no control over. For people for whom this prospect meant life and death--for whose families the work done each day signified whether or not they would shudder out in the cold another night--you really painted a vivid picture of just how hard it would have been for them while also showing the methods they needed to succeed.

My great uncle built a log cabin with all hand tools and pulleys with his best friend many years ago in a very similar fashion in Door County Wisconsin USA. That cabin is still standing today 100+ years later and looks as if it was built yesterday minus the old soul to the building. Love this video so much and it’s almost like I get a glimpse of what my great uncle and his friend did to build our cabin (still in the family to this day even though it was sold out of the family at one point!)

I am a Material Scientist, teacher, builder and have a keen interest in medical matters. You need to understand that when the human body is exposed to low temperatures and the core temperature is lowered , this can result in death. Humans maintain a temperature of 36.7 degrees Celsius, and sitting in water say at 5 degrees is quite dangerous.

Lifting weights wrongly will damage the spine and make the person unable to work. Seeing him lift that very heavy rock shows me he is doing things obviously wrong. There are many ways he can be injured, in particular, the receptive hitting of timber with an axe, He will suffer RSI, Repetative Strain Injury. I have used axes and mattocks and know, my wrists are not in best shape, he will develop early artrithtis.

I used to not be a quitter but I think life and the past few years have made me very angry and impatient. Patience is a virtue and brings wonderful things
I’ve also been screaming a lot recently. Just a lot of anger...and no result seems worth my time so I become lazy. Thank you for sharing
AWESOME, TRULY AWESOME.
У автора ролика золотые руки! Пусть у него все получится! Прекрасная природа,собака рядом ,что ещё можно желать в нашей суетливой жизни!!!

I don't normally watch things like this but wow...the first few minutes were so captivating I had to watch it all...the skills and dedication to this looked incredible...well done.
Had to also watch it all!
So did i
You are an inspiration with your Cabin the forest. Loved your dogs as well man’s best friend! Loved the birch bark and tile roof!
Я, из России. г. Сургут, уже несколько месяцев смотрю и пересматриваю как вы стоите лесной домик в одиночку. Я не понимаю вашего языка, я понимаю только язык топора. Вы уникальный, талантливый молодой человек! Мое восхищение и восторг вашему таланту и терпению! Творческих вам успехов. Руфина
я тоже из Сургута :)
молодой чел, походу, от шведской армии косит уже второй год )))....
Салют земляки! И я сургутянин:)
Интересно, кто ему разрешил самовольно долбать лес в центре Европы?...Собезъянничал проект у Адвоката Егорова из Карелии
- чему восхищаться?...лес рубит - щепки летят -- накажут!, если это не специальная затея и есть за неё ответственные!...
лес народный и у всякой нечисти незачем разрешение спрашивать, которая природу загаживает.
it was wounderfull seeing your video .most beautifull sight of mother nature..great hard work..god bless you.lots of love from lndia...
WELCOME BACK ERIC. I'M SURE I COULD SPEAK FOR MANY TO SAY WE MISSED YOU... THE CABIN... THE DOGS... the snorting pig too!
To see all this in one video brings the memories flooding back. Here's wishing you continued success and perhaps much more besides. Above all, I've never seen you looking miserable, so you're obviously doing things "just right"!! Best wishes again from UK.
This is one of the reasons why I love Sweden, it has an endless supply of trees and nature. It's perfect for people who wants to stay connected with mother nature.
Wow I agree. The US has beautiful land too but Im not sure how the legality of doing something like this works
@@dylanhale6853 cops would be called
@@dylanhale6853 buy a Land.
@@ulbertthescharfrichter5667 id like to man I haven't done my research yet I'm interested to look and see what is out there how much it cost and how far out away from society I could get
@@dylanhale6853 buying land is actually incredibly cheap compared to an actual house, you could buy an entire acre of land with a few thousand dollars
Around a year ago, I stumbled upon your "1 year alone" video and boy was I in for an amazing ride. Seeing the cabin now is just amazing, but what amazes me more is the message that I'm getting. That we deserve everything we want if we are willing to work for it. Thank you for this reminder! You are an inspiration! 🙂
That is, if some filthy rich person grants you 50 acres or so of pristine forest land.
@@Merzui-kg8ds I think this is northern Sweden, a few acres of land is not for the filthy rich up there. Most of Sweden is forrest. As if you moved to remote Canada.
@@Merzui-kg8ds Yes things have changed over the centuries and it is difficult to find land that is not already owned by someone. They usually sell it for the going rate which is expensive, hence why people like "the woodlander" here on RUclips works to connect groups of people to buy land collectively, and then begin the long process of living on it.
I thoroughly enjoyed watching this young man build muscle throughout the video. And watching the puppy grow. So much growth in so many ways. What a delight for all of us who are lucky enough to watch this video…. There’s just something here that gives a genuine feeling of hope inspiration and encouragement.
Holy crap, Erik you're a badass‼Making a cabin by yourself with no power tools, breaking boulders, bathing in icy water, working in the rain and making amazing videos. Great job man, i'm subscribing.
Where did you get such amazing skills, knowledge and experience at 20 years old? This is perfection 👍
This is absolutely incredible. There’s something about just being alone and surviving by yourself that I love.
Yeah subnautic scratch that itch for me
@@hentikirby7142 You should try the forest if you haven't already :)
@@franzyr Yes, can't wait for the Sons of the Forest
This is hands down one the of the most beautiful videos I've ever seen on YT, not just seeing you build a cabin, cooking, and playing around with the dogs but also the cinematography, the way you film certain parts made it feel like a movie and that ending shot was just beautiful.
Sua casa é a mais linda e detalhada, que já vi alguem construir no youtube, parabéns vc é incrível 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
I have watched so many videos like this, and it still amazes me every time that these people have dedicated so much time and patience into learning how to do something like this. So fascinating and so insanely impressive. Thank you for sharing with us!
Idk about others, but this one hides normal life slightly. So this cabin is more like business-hobby.
Something a woman can never do
@@8risk I'm usually not like this, but yes they can, especially in places like here in Alaska. We got some tough women and while yes most majority that can do this are men doesn't mean women can't.
hes the last real men
Men strength is amazing for sure.. I agree I would need a man’s help at my age n probably when younger
Эрик, хвала тому, кто передал тебе эти знания и навыки! Сегодня так мало молодых мужчин, способных развести костёр, не то чтобы построить дом, как ты. Береги себя! Желаю тебе здоровья и новых творческих идей!

Ога.
В Швеции! Чувак пришёл просто в лес, просто свалил деревья, просто начал что-то строить..))

Tak, bo jeszcze sam weźmie i uwierzy w to 🤣 hahaha, że samodzielnie zrobił ten dom (bez pomocy kolegów)😂🤣😂. Siłacz z niego jak kilka koni. I deski sam wystrugaĺ i wyciął toporkiem😅😅😅. I zdążył przed deszczem i zimnem. Ale ściema!
Ерік! Ти надзвичайний молодець ! Але мене підкорила молода собачка ! Ну така мила !!!
the amount of skill and energy that went into this project is astonishing
No cabin in the woods is complete without an adorable puppy and their toy pig. Really beautiful job!
Nice username
I hate dogs
We have a saying in Jamaica: "You see a man's face, you don't see his heart;" so when I saw you haul your first few logs by hand, I thought to myself, Are you sure about this?! Two years later I decided to drop by, and am so proud of what you have accomplished. As an architect, you a layman(?) have taught me a lot with this video alone; so now I must go and check out the others.
Very few people in this world has determination like Erik and the skill/talents/natural gifts to be able to pull it off. Heck, people can't even change their own brakes for god's sakes.
This type of project is out of reach for 95% of the population.
I know exactly what it's like to work on project's lasting 5+ years. I know the sacrifice he has gone through, and it looks like it paid off for him.
You seem to be invincible. The cold does not bother you. The frigid water does not bother you. Living alone does not bother you. 😌 Hod Bless 🙌 🙏 ✨️

Fantastic !!! 2 часа пролетели как 5 минут, не могла оторваться !!! Изумительная съёмка. Одно из лучших видео которые я видела на Ютубе !!!
Спасибо ютубу, что порекомендовал это видео. Эрик ты.. , я не могу найти слова, чтобы выразить насколько ты крут).
ну и на сколько он крут ? явно он не ВСЕ делал в одиночку,и дверь не отливал металлическую входную,и где то брал еду,саженцы и прочее,с деньгами и подходящими инструментами конечно можно дом построить. но он ли его строил? и в одиночку ли?

Просто супер ! Все на одном дыхании посмотрели . Однозначно для себя поняла - терпение и труд , все перетрут ! Браво 👏
Да , всё перетрут и леса с земли сотрут. Эта тварь столько деревьев загубил, только из за бересты пол леса ободрал.
Молодец мне очень нравится 🎉
As a fellow swede…this really makes you paus and just question your own reality in a poetic way.
Nice done, and good job with recording at the same time!
It’s sad you swedes decided to not have forechildren and bring muslims and africans instead
Wasn’t he worried about bears ?
@@marianne22222 why would he be? Bears just don't randomly go towards danger.
何度見ても桁違いに凄い。全てが驚くべき。RUclips MVP賞だ。
The footage of nature and the wildlife were spectacular by themselves, insanely good video!
My most sincere and enthusiastic congratulations to this young man for his amazing accomplishment.
What you have done is commendable. As an older adult now who built houses, I feel compelled to tell you that you need to take it easy on your body. I did the things you do and have no cartilage left in my right hip. Just because you can do it, doesn't mean that you should. I say this with respect and concern.
I was thinking the same thing. I cringed watching him man handle those logs.
My dad was the same and caused himself issues. I saw this and was too careful with how much I did and caused myself issues. Looking back I realise how dumb it was to avoid physical labour. It’s a balance.
Agreed, aint worth a bad back or a lost leg. When ya get used to hard work and ya get old an crippled up ya go stir crazy when ya can't do it anymore. Make sure ya stretch out every day.
Was it not worth it?
Don‘t worry, look closely, not all is as it seems.
Unreal where you sometimes get your strength from. Love your videos. ❤❤
Man, as a fellow established carpenter, I must say I am extremely impressed by some of the things you accomplished solo in this, firstly because of the danger of some of the tasks to attempt alone, but the skill and techniques you used. Very well done. Love to see this in this day and age.👏🏽
Dont you think he didnt really do all of it by himself?

You are one tough man, that was a lot of hard work and you really did a beautiful job. Years ago, when I was young, I also built a log cabin out in the mountains in Montana, raise my daughter there. I can really appreciate all the effort that has gone into your wonderful log house. Job very well done.
Wow, this is a lovely thing you did for your little girl. To offer the opportunity to this child, to understand the capacity we have, within, to do just about anything. She must have learned so much form your example. Thank you for not being one of this wackos, who, instead might raise their child on things like “drag queen storytime”
Как насчет легальности

ERIK YOU HAVE INSPIRED ME EVERYDAY WITH YOUR VIDEO'S!!!
I can't imagine how many hard hours that must be! We are seeing now your incredible progress, but I think nobody really understand how much energy you put in this work. You're a big inspiration for me! You are a living example of the saying "don't tell them, show them".
Thank you Erik!!
I agree
