- Опубликовано: 5 янв 2025
- Housing around the world can differ quite drastically. In Yakutia, the coldest inhabited region on Earth, the frigid temperatures - as low as -71°C (-95°F) during the winter months - force locals to take extra measures in order to preserve every bit of warmth within their homes. But how do they keep warm? And what is the life like? In this video, I will take you inside a Yakutian house. Built by the owner himself.
How do you keep your homes warm and what is included in your daily routines? Be sure to let me know in the comments below. Thanks so much for watching and have a wonderful day!

He said "This is my lovely wife😍", holding her close as he stands in front of the house he built for his son. He's a winner.
I love how gentle the father is with his family and his animals, when the horse snuggled in for a kiss was adorable. I like that the sons house is right next door and they’ll continue to support each other, just with more privacy now.
It’s a pony.
Horse, Pony, Donkey, Cow, they're all the same thing!
The horse isn't a pet, it's bred for meat.
Hardly something new. Family often live next door even in western countries the parents will build a home on a farm or big block next door for son/daughter. Farmers do it all the time in Australia. Don’t romanticise it as a ‘foreign thingI’ that makes them better.
@@xr6lad they weren’t even mentioned the fact that it was a foreign thing? they just commented on it. they didn’t say it was new
Their winters may be harsh but these folks seem so much happier and well-adjusted than people in a lot of other places. They radiate peace, love and contentment.
Living the dream... Hardworking family... Kind to their animals... Complimentary to his wife... Building son a home... Beautiful people - inspiring too say the least...
❤️👍
I'd love to live a simple life. Maybe somewhere more tame and local tho. Like the UP. (Im from Michigan)
@@thedaggonator I always try to think of the perspectives people from different places hold of their way of living and there dream.

Our country "Sri Lanka" has no winter & snow. All 365 days we have sun light. We thought snow & winter is beautiful and we wanted visit and live in snow falling countries. When we watch this video we can understand how difficult the life in cold weather. How.they manage their life ? Its amazing. We can't even think about it. Amazing people. Wish them healthy life. ❤ from 🇱🇰
Never ever wish for a temperature below 15 degree celcius. You people are just lucky in terms of the geographical location of your country. Even in other south asian countries the winters get quite harsh. Anything below 15 is bad for us since we are not used to winters in this zone. Currently, bangladesh and india are going through that weather. Just be happy you don't have to bear this absolutely depressing weather. No sunlight, absolutely depressing
@@tunim4354 ❤ 🇱🇰
Do frogs invade your country?
@@kylephillip6433 Never . In some years month of May we are having heavy rains and flood. During this heavy rain period we are having earthslips in some areas . But it is also very small and very rear human dead reports in that period. This is the only natural disaster we are having in Sri Lanka.
@@tunim4354I live in the north of Mexico and here the temperature ranges from -15°c to 45°c and I assure you that the cold is easier to bear
All respect for these people who teach their children with love and gentleness, who are living in communion with the environment, fishing only once in 3 years from the same lake, take care of each other in their community by giving fish to those who could not attend the traditional MUNKHA... Great people, we can all learn from!
And how the fuck do you know that? They could most likely be Putin supporters, who want to nuke Ukrainian civilians and the western world, like most Russians are.
Just because they like their friends and family, in no way makes them good people yet.
My thoughts exactly.
What a great family. It's obvious they have a strong bond. Extreme conditions bring people together.
По украинцам в войну это не как не сказала бы. Если бы не европейцы , они друг другу бы не когда не стали помогать, потому что уже злость и выгода только в сердцах.
And also, they probably do not spend their entire day watching MSNBC and browsing Twitter or INstagram.
A Russian family should be strong. No matter what big events happen, Russia will continue.
@@Mr.Patrick_Hung I think they said the same thing about the Soviet Union...
It’s called morals, what most in the USA are losing why we’re becoming weak
Is no one going to talk about how the parents built a whole home for $15000 dollars for their son?They are very good parents.Bless them
It’s better than taking out a mortgage.
They didn’t do it. The pancakes did.
Well consider that in that area average salary is 200 usd per month so 15000 is a lot
@@yaroslavkasyanenko8104 and he is praising them.

Is a very peaceful life here. I like it when he ask the horse for a little kiss. 😂❤
I was born and raised in Boston MA USA and moved to Florida a few years ago because I hated the cold long winters of New England. But these folks seem not to just survive, but thrive in such a cold location. It's inspiring.
Yakute's go to Boston in the winter for their summer vacation! lol
@@stefanschleps8758 lololol
It's inspiring? So does that mean you're moving back to Boston? 😂😂 Jk. I'm from southern California. I can only visit the cold, never live in it 🥶. Cold for us in socal is 60 degrees 😂😅...
@@sela562jig lol heck no. I don't miss snow AT ALL. :)
These are two different types of cold. In cold places like Yakutia, cold is chilly, but never gets under the clothes. In New England, it's humid and you always feel cold and socks get wet all the time. Plus, as far as I know it's not as gloomy in winters in places within the polar circle.
I’m now an intern architect it’s very interesting to see how people around the world come up with ideas to insulate homes and to choose materials to withstand severe weather conditions. Thank you very much for sharing!
The old fashioned lives worldwide were experts in survival, and now most of those techniques are lost. I'm 82 & I still remember my grandmother's old ways of doing things, even in London, a big city, the old folks kept their tiny vegetable gardens some with a few chickens too, made cottage cheese & preserved & canned foods for later. They wasted nothing, old adult dresses were cut down & remade for children, knitting was a regular pastime, and most people only owned one pair of shoes - only brown or black ! Yet their homes were tidy & clean & white painted doorsteps were a sign of a well kept home !
We built houses like this 100 years ago in Norway too, but now there are alot more efficient ways to use less wood and get better insulated houses.
@@bariako1 зимой -50 и это в центральной Якутии. Лучше проверенное.
One does its best with what he got ,this people know exactly how to do it. I admire you proud people, unlike us spoilt people who winging and whining about the smallest inconvenience in life. Your way of life is arduous in every way, only your adamant nature will help you to survive. Nothing but total respect for your discernment!
@@veronicaroach3667 How we should all live depending on the climate, but old world values and talents never fail us.
I'm from Finland and to my surprise, I see a couple of familiar things here: The use of birch in the bath/sauna, and the use of moss on the walls. Actually this kind of moss, "Pleurozium schreberi", is called "seinäsammal" in Finnish, which translates to "wall moss"...
The use of the birch in the sauna is similar to the American Indian tradition because we used saunas like this hundreds of years ago.
Very interesting, thank you!
Yes this awakens something within me as a native Finn who’s never even lived in Finland.
I was just about to comment that 5000km to the west we also have sauna (steam room) and vasta/vihta (the bracnh). The moss has been used as insulator in here since forever and there are still old cabins around that have moss between the logs. Some, rarely, use it still today when building something with traditional style, maybe in remote place, like fishing hut for example.
it´s common in all the Russia more or less
The mother n father are adorable! They are sweet loving kind couple! Their sons are lucky. They have wonderful parents.
This family father seemed happy to present his son's home! I really like the Yakuts way of life, this is how I imagine my retirement in Northern Quebec to be!!!
Northern Quebec?? You must be First Nations!
@@stephenbrand5661 My great-gra dmother was, fairly dilluted since i dont know on the side of my father. I believe my love for fishing and nature comes from my ancestors!
Considering our house prices now I would pay for the one on the photo 100 k . 275 k gets you a trailer home in ottawa outskirts atm.
As an Australian, this terrifies me. We hate it when we get a frost.
@@karenglenn6707 Once you take a ride on a snowmobile or go ice fishing in a heated shack, you end up loving it!!
It's so refreshing to see such kind, happy, hardworking people!
It’s refreshing for me to read all of these beautiful comments from people like you. Christina Brown I pray you live a long BLESSED LIFE.❤
It's so amazing that we in Melbourne take everything for granted. We only face max of 2 months of lowest temperature of around 0 to 4C and just put on the heater. And get 24 hrs hot water. It's so heart touching to see the old couple in this harsh conditions for me. I am glad they look happy and helping each other. God bless them.
And some in Brisbane think Melb is freezing cold 😅
@@leilakoishibayeva1589 lol. Though it's colder than Brisbane here. But looking at this vid everything is nice and warm.
We don't even have moss for insulation though.
I want be in Brisbane!!!
So much peace and prosperity. This video once again proved that you really don't need luxurious life or home to be happy all it requires a simple home and a loving family. God bless you all abundantly 🙏🏻
i wonder what his opinions are on LGBTQ and Climate change ..lol, western problems
@@TsarOfRuss Spoiled western LGBTQ and black lives matter. These brats need to be transported to Yakutia for a year and trust me when they return back to the USA they will surely appreciate everything rather than being spoiled and demanding rights! Western problem is laughing stock!

I feel like there's something blessed about that kind of life.

When he speak his native language i feel happy to understand few words hello from Turkey
ME TOO I THINK ITS ARABIC WORDS
living in the nordic countryside i recognise many of these features in my home (built 1892) a central woodstove, moss in the walls, a warerboiler on wood. My family has no trouble staying warm in -30c but it does create challenges with the plumbing. What is so rarely talked bout tho is the feeling of your snot and tears freezing, Its quite unique
I don't know how frozen snot and tears feels! Coldest temperature ever where I live was -10C and that was night time so I wasn't outside in it, probably -5C is coldest I've been outside, and that wasn't for long!
I just hope none of these lovely people get forced into getting involved with you-know-what further west at the moment; that would make me feel sad.
@@K1lostream - Are you British as I remember having loads of snow and it being - 10°C which is the coldest I've ever experienced in the South of England but up into Scotland it was over double that! I remember taking my dog's out for a walk at 21:00 and it made me breathless and my nose sort of stung because it was so cold and dry and luckily there wasn't no wind because that is what really hurts. 🇬🇧
My grandparents lived in a house built same time, very cold winter also. When was snowing a lot we used tunnels in the snow to get where we need .Is a constant work to keep the house warm. Is not fun to go to an outdoor toilet at -30C or even bring cold wood inside. They have animals that need few times a day care, water is always frozen, same with food.
It is a lot of work and determination to live on that conditions.
@@K1lostream thats nothing. and im from germany. sometimes it has -20 but it isnt really that cold
@@Threat_LvL Yeah - although I spoke to someone (from Oslo) and apparently 'dry' cold is less bad than the shitty 'wet' cold I get where I live.
I haven't experienced 'dry' cold so I have to take his word for it but it still sounds cold to me!
I live in South Florida that is hot most of the year. We have several months of cool days. While air conditioning is essential and quit expensive. Winter months we save on having doors and windows open. This video shows survival skills to be used especially the unbelievable cold climate. Much respect for the elderly couple living in this climate.
What a beautiful life! What a beautiful family! Extreme cold doesn't slow these families down. Inspirational. Thank you for sharing.
Love your RUclips channel!
Admire the hard working people.
thank you 🙏🏻
The stove is beautiful and it gives me such a cozy feeling. It reminds me of the stove I had when I used to spend my holidays in the country.

I watch your videos to ease my own dislike of our winters here. We get down to -25 F in the dead of winter in northern Michigan. But that is rare and not constant. In January it can be in the single digits often with lows below 0 at night sometimes. Watching your videos makes our cold not seem so bad. We heat primarily with firewood and use propane as a backup.
Canadian here, and my rural grandparents made a log cabin with my uncles (their sons) even more simplistic than most of these houses a few decades ago. Same kind of general idea, logs with plant insulation, single wood stove in the center of the only room, and disconnected toilet. However it wasn't for living in, it was used as a family and friends cottage vacation property.
It's a lot of dirt roads and bit of a hike to get there in the summer, but in the winter snowmobiles can make it through the narrow forest trails. Typically we would only use it for about a week at a time, and there was a public diary of sorts that my grandparents left there where people have left their stories and thanks after using the cabin for shelter when caught by bad weather.
I love these videos. your village looks wonderful and so peaceful! many thanks for making and sharing your village life with the world
today someone commented i should delete all videos :( people can be so mean. but i dont care. i know im the best. i never give up. i am age 80+ and will never stop. thanks for caring, dear shu
I live in Arizona it's sunny and warm everyday
They are very peacefull people indeed. When Russians invaded their lands they didn't want to fight back. Luckily Russians didn't start etnic cleansing there unlike caucassians and crimea.
@@AxxLAfriku don’t let them get you down @AxxL keep doing what makes you happy. Best of luck
Ukraine instead....
They seem so grateful for their family, their friends, the animals, the natural environment and their spiritual life. We in America could learn from them. Gratefulness is a secret to contentment and joy.
Imagine, just a few years ago, to learn about life in faraway lands, we would wait for a National Geographic documentary or magazine. And now, we can go visit any part of the world whenever we feel like and experience the magic of life in these lands. It truly is magical :-)
I have a family story of my grand-grand father who had walked 4 days long to got to the city I live today. He did it to sell a cow. He had brought a cow with him. Today you can bring a cow to any point in the world less then in 4 days. We all live in a small village called the Planet Earth nowadays
You are such a good story teller...I just love your content...the best thing about your videos is that they are very informative and interesting also...I've seen many documentaries but most of them are kinda boring...but yours are very engaging...
❤ From India 🇮🇳
That man asking the horse for a kiss as it responded. It’s the most heartwarming video I’ve seen today. Can you please make a video of how you dress for such Cold?
Thank you for sharing! It's great to see how the people adapt to the freezing climate and how independent and self-sustaining they are.

Capable and hardworking people. I really enjoyed meeting these people. You are beautiful.❤
What beautiful wonderful people! I hope they enjoyed watching this video and imagining people all over the world sharing their lives.
Just the way his animals smiled and waere all so calm tells me everything i need to know
I am humbled by this family love and respect for each other.
These videos are so eye opening, I just love them.
I’d love a sense of just how much of daily life is made up of work. Between chopping wood, harvesting hay, building fires, tending to cattle, it’s hard to imagine 24 hours is enough!
What a fascinating video! I love how they use moss to insulate their homes, and the multi-purpose stove inside. It’s amazing how people can adapt to life in the harshest weather conditions. Here in the West we take so much for granted.
I can’t understand how people live in tropics, heat,humidity, and hot sun, love from Alaska
Bugs are in hot climates, and they carry diseases.
There are plenty of extremely frigid locations in the West.
God bless them...cause I can't even take anything below 40 degrees...thats krazy and amazing at the same time...
i love everything about this video! The pony kiss was adorable! And I love that these people build their own home, stove, storage... themselves. That's useful skills! It might not be exciting like NY, but such peaceful life is so much healthier. Would love to visit some day.
This man was probably sent to Ukraine with no training or equipment and killed. Sorry to be so up front, but the reality of what is happening infuriates me. There are videos of men from Yakutia living that reality unwillingly in Ukraine. I doubt you will visit here unless it is in the far future and geopolitics (specifically Russia) have changed significantly by then.
We have a gas heater yet I appreciate the hardiness and sturdy way of life this beautiful village has kept. Never change as we know the older simpler ways are so much better for us all. Thank you for sharing this.
Gas heater lol
As someone living in a desert environment it's interesting to see a place where keeping warm is the goal.
My students and I thoroughly love learning about your culture and way of life. After watching we like to really expand our thinking on what we have seen. With wood being such a valuable resource in Yakutian daily life, we would love to know how it is obtained and sustainably managed growing in such a harsh climate. We live in New Zealand so far away. If you could help my students with an answer that would be wonderful. 😊
Well, as said in the video, it is a small village, and it's pretty remote too. So they probably don't have to worry too much about deforestation, the natural growth of trees should suffice for them.
I asked that same question seeing wood as the life force.
Meaning food or other cultural activities are not the subject.
The subject seems to be a love and understanding of moss and wood
For a human to live in this environment
@@null_pointer_deref I have to disagree with you Samuel I watched friends of mine they had a thousand acres in Virginia and they let this family manage and they were supposed to be just cutting down the dead trees it was all hardwood all oaks and after about 15 years at thousand acres of trees was gone
@@Valerie-bb5hi A lot of factors can influence that outcome, like how many trees were there to start with, and how fast they cut them (did they only cut what was going to be used? Did they sell the wood?). In any case, I'd like to see how Yakutiaks manage this, because as seen in this video, there's still a lot of trees around.
@@null_pointer_deref yes I was amazed at the beauty because usually those kind of temperatures trees do not flourish and the people I was thinking of this was solid oak old oak trees on a thousand acres and these people cut down what they needed to use each winter it kind of angered me because they were taking advantage of an elderly couple they said they would just cut down the dead ones and keep the woods clean anyways there aren't any left. This was historical property too it was owned by one of the founding fathers, Patrick Henry
I have such respect for these peeps living a true life close with family.
I really like how close knit the village is. I couldn’t imagine such cold temperatures! I live in the southeastern United States where winters are mild and short. We have hot and humid long summers so air conditioning is wonderful. Thank you for sharing what life is like in the coldest village on earth.
You have to be close knit in environments such as this. It's a matter of survival.
You would be surprised..
Most of them stay only with blood relatives. It is not unusual to have no friends there
I live in the south too and complain about the mild winters we do have... I'm not cut out for Yakutia lol!
Harmonie , paix , intelligence et amour avec la nature et l'environnement humain en toute simplicité ...Exemple à suivre pour nos sociétés occidentales complètement malades ! Merci pour la vidéo et longue vie à la Yakoutie .
Longue vie à la Russie
I'm from Karelia and when I saw the birch in the bathhouse I grinned, I honestly thought it was just us! That was silly of me it's probably quite widespread. It's nice that we have that in common!
Love this! Radomir reminds me of my grandpa, especially the putting upside down buckets on the poles to keep mice away. It’s such creative and clever problem solving
It is really refreshing to know that there are still people that still live a very simple life . They don't get caught up in all the garbage of the today's pop culture and politics.
The positive attitude of every single person you show in your videos is admirable!
Here in Maharashtra (India) when winter temperature falls below 7 degrees we consider it as very cold...you guys are simply great..you survive in such low temperature
Giving up a daily hot shower ,is something I would definitely miss! Love the closeness if his family,& how they prepare and help one another!
So different from London life. It is Amazing to watch how people live in this cold weather ❤ good life

@@yesdvt да, в видео же показали как трубы идут от дровяной печи и рассеивают тепло за счет батарей
Hard working family! So impressive how they just do what needs to be done, without complaint.
Inspiring indeed. We heat the house with wood too. We live in the forests of Croatia. Not so cold here though. Only minus 4 or so. Living through a winter, one must be well-supplied. Always have your chest full of food. And have candles, because the electricity can fail when it snows. Other than that, this is a great life. Like in Yakutia.
What a craftsman building a house to withstand such extreme temperatures
I love your videos. They're always so much fun and so informative. I give a lot of credit to the people in Yakutia for all their hard work. It's so sweet to see how much he loves his horses!
This is so encouraging and fascinating. I love how his horse really did kiss him when he asked! Please be sure to keep posting; we love hearing about life in Yakutia:)
Hi a great video. from the Netherlands here. What a great thing to be able to build a home for your kids. In my country, we insulate our homes using three layers of glass, an outer wall, insulation and inner wall as well as insulating the roof. It doesn't get too cold here, most of the time around 0 degrees and in extreme winters a couple of days minus 10 / maybe 15. In my house I built a mass heater rocket stove using a kind of dirt / clayish material. One fire (7 pieces of wood ) will keep it warm for around 12 to 24 hours and it has cut my wood usage down from 20 cubic metres to 5 cubic metres. Perhaps something for all you guys to look into sometimes. Great video, greetings and take care
I don’t feel bad for these people I envy them. Unfortunately I’m stuck living in a city because that’s all I’ve ever known but I’ve always dreamt of living a quiet life in a village just like this. Beautiful.
I moved to a city from village like in the video. And it's so much better when you have toilet and bath in apartment. I hated winters in village. It's blessing to take a bath every day
Take control of your life and do what YOU want to do. You're not 'stuck' -- you're refusing to control your own life.
@@hxhdfjifzirstc894 it's easy to say that but most people dont have the means to drop their lives and everything they've known to take up a totally different lifestyle. hes been living in a city his whole life, he more than likely has not had the chance to cultivate the skills required to live a life like that. most people dont realize just how strenuous doing something simple like chopping firewood is if you haven't built the muscles for it. even living like this in warmer climates is hard. you cant just pop over to the store for stuff like you would in a city. I live a half hour from the nearest walmart and the closest city that barely clears the 5k population mark is 15 min away. I still have a lot of the convienances places like this do not have and I dont think I could drop my life and live ina village like that without major culture shock and hardship.
what i am saying is it's probably for the best he didn't try to make the jump to an extreme rural life like that. I would suggest instead trying the outskirts of a small town at least 100 miles away from any major population hubs. far enough away to not have to deal with the city life day to day, but close enough to where you can make something of a day trip to the big city if you really need something there
Seems we always wish for what we don’t have and the grass is always greener on the other side. 😂 Believe me, I was thinking the same thing. I’ve never lived in a big city but even in my small town we don’t have the closeness of these families and friends. I would love this…I think!
when you grow up in city, village come boring for you believe me. live and holiday that two too diffrent
I live in Southern Ontario Canada 🇨🇦.
It can get cold here in the winter, but after watching this charming family struggle to live there, I will never complain about our winters again!
that is a harsh life......much respect to those people and the way they're able to adapt to the extreme cold...... i couldn't do that...
Reminds me of the winters growing up. My family heated the house with the wood stove. It is so cozy. I love to see how you live with the severe cold. Keep making videos!!
Living in a tropical archipelago country and wondering if I could survive there.
How nice to see this channel!
Nowdays, it is way too hot for me here!
This is a great video. It shows how people live in simple way and yet happy and satisfied. It gives people around the world way of living in remote areas with less population. You have done a nice work. Keep it going. Appreciate your work.
I LOVE me some fires once a week or so as entertainment but I couldn’t imagine how much work it is to constantly maintain a fire for survival. Mad respect for these people. 👍🏼
Im finnish and the part where he shows the steam room its sauns and that birch thing was invented here too its for being in the sauna both of them were invented here
The way they build the houses seems so efficient, also Yakutia do seem like a lovely place to visit, i hope one day I'll be rich with enough time to travel here.
Although they lack so much we consider "essential", I bet many envy the sense of community and self-reliance they share. What fantastic people.

I live in north eastern Pennsylvania, U.S.A. I have central air gas heat and air conditioning that’s “forced air”. I’m 69 years old now. From 2013-2016 my daughter and her family lived with me but now am alone. I take part in my church’s worship service plus play bass guitar once a month in worship. Also go to men’s meetings and take my grandchildren to church and other things sometimes. Your channel is very interesting in how people survive the winters in Yakutia. Subscribed.
For Yakutian, I believe this is the happiest place on earth.
This is very similar to Scandinavian building traditions. We really have a lot in common up north.
I live in a similar log house from the 1700s, with a big fireplace in the middle. It’s not as cold here, but I still use firewood as my main source of heat. I even have a similar "root cellar" in the ground, but it’s only used in the winter. I wish I had a sauna!
With a well-built and well-maintained traditional house and lots of firewood, life’s good. I don’t even like modern houses anymore, and apartments make me uneasy.
I am from Philadelphia, Pa. A crowded US city. I wish to migrate further north in my state where the mountains are so i can live a life style much closer to yours, my friend. Bless you.

Look like same than old log houses in Finland, steamhouse is a sauna. Two layer windows are not very warm. We have three or four layer windows in finland. Yakutia live is just like Finland 50s.
Thank you for your videos, sharing your life and your communities life! I appreciate all your hard work that goes into making your videos. We live in a big beautiful world that is so diverse and full of wonderment. Getting to know about other’s lives is important and my respect to you all. I have learned a few things thru your video and thru some of the comments. Thank you!
Never even thought of sauna being as substitute for shower in cold climates. Awesome content!
They go in the sauna then they bath in ice water, They go the sauna to become temporarily immune to the freezing cold ice water.
Here in Finland, we also use Sauna for washing. Great for summers and winters, all year around 🙂
Sauna is the greatest thing, and it is fits all the times of year. It cleanses your body, it is pleasant, it is healthy, it makes you immune to frosts, and it makes you to take summer more easily. Sauna - is the greatest invention on fields of hygiene.
Well, that's why it was invented
The Sioux would do this also, they are called sweat lodges, and after getting nice and hot you then go bathe in the freezing stream or with snow melt.
Как приятно смотреть ваш фильм. Я большой любитель всего русского. . . Обычный человек, который является особенным. Я сам живу в Нидерландах, но у меня много русских друзей. Очень ценно. Пожалуйста, продолжайте снимать такие прекрасные фильмы. Спасибо за вашу прекрасную работу.
And I thought it was cold here in Vermont in the USA! I only need maybe two cords of wood per winter, plus we have oil heating as well. You video is very calming and peaceful. Thank you for sharing this with the world.
I love their way of living, I live a life a bit similar. I live alone burn wood therefore I have my wood to stack in the spring for the winter , all of the work that needs doing I do. I live in the country off by myself I love it. I enjoy seeing how other people live, their culture, I find it interesting, my favourite program. The coldest it get where I live on a lake on a mountain is 30 below, we have very strong send blowing up the lake so it seems colder. I love the fresh air outside. I think it is wonderful that were you live you can walk to the store. I think you have a wonderful way of living your life, healthy, enjoyable way of living with your animals. I am surprised you don't have a dog. Thank you for sharing, I am looking forward to next time. From Canada.
What a beautiful way of living. Real living! I love watching your video's, they give me a wholsome feeling. This is what life is about, loving and taking care of each other, preparing your own food and enjoy the beauty of Mother Nature! Still it's very, very cold 🥶💛
This video is about a cold place but the content is really heart-warming. I also get the feeling of a zero crime rate and therefore no need for a local police station. :D
Not quite so, the Yakuts are a very harsh and warlike people, one of the best warriors. And our blood is hot, especially among young people. The whole world is afraid of the Russians, and the Russians are afraid of us. So something like that.
@@SakhaYkt14 are you Russians or Chinese? Your eyes look Chinese.
For enemies, we are all Russians, and so are Turks.
@@Markks100 For many centuries, more than 190 different nationalities have lived in Russia, with their own culture and religion, we are all citizens of Russia. Indigenous peoples with a thousand-year history live on the territory of Yakutia, they do not belong to China.
@@SakhaYkt14 the whole world is afraid of Russians? Where did you get that idea?
We use geothermal water to warm our houses in Iceland. Houses are extra strong built to take different weather. Which changes fast.. they also need to be able to take earthquake and winter storms. But the wind is worst of all
@KiunB this is what village life, trust me it is heaven. Thank you for showing this beauty of life.
Great narration. Life is really tough and you had to be strong to survive there.
I live in Jaipur, India.
Summer are hotter, around 42°Cto 44°C and winters are not that cold and sre around 12°C to 16° C during day and around 4-5° C at nights.
As of today, average temperature is above 38°C.
That's a pretty big temperature difference. Our summers where I'm from is like 40 degrees during the day, going down to 28-32 degrees at night. At "winter" (it's really not winter), it's like 33-35 degrees during the day and 15-17 degrees at night. We wear hoodies and winter beanies in the evenings then 😂.
Stepping away from cooler is a crime these days🥵
In Yakutia summer could be very hot . Up to 40. Average 28-35.
i prefer cold ! summer is near and i don't want it to come . everything about 25°C is torture for me ! just came from the night walk and its 5°C outside . the air is so fresh and invigorating 🥰
Woah
And here i get overheated when only 27
Brilliant video especially the way Yakutians build their wooden houses with the moss insulation, love it💚
I love these videos. Keep them coming. Bravo from Poland to America.
imagine your parents building you a house by hand, thats so sweet
Hello guys, I leave in Siberia and we also have winters up to-40 C. However there is huge number of modern technologies to insulate house to make it more thermoeffective, no needs to use moss for that. Also charcoal may be used for heating instead of wood. However people in Yakutia rather resistant and love to live the same way as their ancestors lived.
Yeah thaughts the same thing, 100% a new house with the right indikation would work better.
Lots of people chose to live like that, but for lots of people the modern technologies are simply to expensive. Especially if it's western stuff it's expensive, even Asian(Chinese) products are not that cheap, because they have to travel a long way through nothing and trainlines are mostly meant for bigger cities. Driving a car in winter is difficult and the distances great.
Good to know
-40 C is average temp in winter for Yakutian. The temperature reached upto -70 and more they still surviving. These people are impressive.
You didn't get the point of this video. This people don't want modern technology! They live pure and organic lifestyle!
That's a great parents, cant believe it really.
here where I live it is very hot more than 35 degrees, now we enter autumn, 23, degrees, Yakutia is famous for its cold, greetings from Argentina
What an absolutely beautiful video. Lovely to see traditional people living a simple family oriented life. I bet there is no mental illness there.
I am from Northern Minnesota where it can get to -40° F. It's very odd, but living in the cold is a great way to live a happy life. During summer, you as so appreciative for the rebirth of the world. During the winter, life slows down and it reminds you of what is important in life. You tend to spend a lot of quality time with family and friends. I love Minnesota and I respect people from cold climates.
I've had my heat go out in my car and had to drive hours in that -40+ in MN many times before. I can't imagine how many times these folk have to take breaks and head back inside during their winters.
Are you near the boarder part? I'm live in the city, the worse I see was -20, can't imagine -40
Remember that the Lord Jesus Christ died on a cross for you because He loves you so much. He then rose up from the dead three days later.
The Ten Commandments are called the moral law, (most of us are lying thieving blasphemous adulterer at heart and deserve hell) you and I broke the law, Jesus paid the fine. That’s what happened on that cross.
By believing that Jesus died on the cross and rose up from the dead 3 days later and not just confessing your sin, but also repenting of all sin you have done and putting all your trust in Him in prayer, He will grant you everlasting life as a free Gift.
Come on. I lived in Minneapolis for 46 years. It gets that cold there. I remember my chickens playing in the snow at -35°F.
I think the record for the coldest temp in MN was -79° in International Falls. That was without windchill.
Awwhh 🥺🤧 5:57 i love when the animals understands us and likewise..❤❤❤
7:00 the cow peeking out of there🥺🥺🤧🤧❤❤❤
What lovely, industrious people. I've rethought my complaints after seeing how simply but purposely they live. God bless this family.
Nice
I live in Alaska and the coldest I've ever experienced is -45. At that point we couldn't drive cause the tires would shatter. The high school let us go outside between classes to start our cars just to make sure they didn't get to cold. At -45 the metal will burn your skin, water pipes freeze, we have to put heatings underneath the engines as well as keep them plugged into the house to use the block heater.
I can't imagine -95F. Is that even possible?!!!
I agree for me the lowest was -50c and it was fun but at the same time was terrible. Made me feel like I was living in Alaska and as a kid would try to take my teddies out side, because mushers went sledding in that cold 😂
oh ya? try 200 degree metal in the sonoran desert. guaranteed your skin will painfully burn fast
-40 the temp sensors give up. they make to the choice just before winter to have a car or not. if they do go with having a car in the winter they leave the car running 24/7. there videos of cars just idling in parking lots or setting in headed garages.
-45 lowest for me in Norway. Still doing carpenter work in -30...

What a very loving Mother and Father for too build a home for their Son 😊
I live in Northwestern New Jersey, USA, along the Appalachian Mountains, our coldest temp ever recorded, was -32 degrees Fahrenheit back in 1904, way before I was born in 1985. During my life time on this planet, the coldest I'd ever experienced was -20 degrees below zero Fahrenheit back in 2015. We use mainly electric heaters when it's above freezing 32 degrees Fahrenheit , and our oven to bake hot meals for dinner. But when it get's real cold, we start our 60,000 btu wood stove for our 2,000 sq foot home.
Nice, thanks for sharing Thomas!
