😂😂
P😂😂😂
Lol
Good one. 😊
🤣🤣
Apart from the cave itself what I love is this guy did it himself without a high flying job or rich parents. He just waited until he had cash for a section. Step by step he’s grown a beautiful cool environment. One of my favourite stories.
He has such a low key CALM voice and demeanor about him. I bet he's like the easiest person to be around or hang out with. This home seems like a perfect choice for his life. Just feels like it's almost an easy minimalistic kinda life. I'm jealous of it really
His entire property is absolutely amazing and I like that he seems so humble about it too
When you're so tired of humanity you go live in a cave.
This guy is goals
Gold. Yeah, I'll show myself out. :
I always wanted one. Except covered with dirt, etc, so it blends in perfectly in a wooded setting.
@Zeljko Trifunovic he wanted an escape from people not modern comforts
I am speechless, i admire his tenacity to fulfill his dream.
Facts
true that
Like how he starts out " got kicked out of school"! Anyone can achieve greatness if they inspire to do so. Good for him!
Thank you! Saw this video and had to see this place for myself, just got back from visiting Cave House, and it was even better than I imagined. Definitely something I'll always remember as a great and unique adventure.
This man's determination to create a self sufficient lifestyle is amazing and so is his rock home. One of the best and most unique homes so far.
I totally agree with all you’ve said!
Do not fall for this, this is Airbnb’s partner in crime
And when you are done...girls came..infact you can see one gold digging
"Didn't see any news. Didn't read any news. Got completely away from it."
Best words EVER!
We all should do that!
Makes life so much more peaceful.
AMEN.
Yep, I stopped watching the news 13 years ago. It never changes really, stupid people doing stupid stuff and stupid politicians doing stupid stuff. Every Day! Got sick of it. Enjoy every day of your life and turn off the news.
It sure does
Mhh..nahh. If you live really Independently, don't pay taxes and just eat your own food...OK. But I'm part of a society, part of problems and solutions. I want to know what the government is doing, vote, know what happens. If i'd go to work and pay taxes, but don't care what Government and NGOs do with my money, I'd give up my democratic rights and would not be able to have an opinion or make responsible decisions. Even if the parties I vote are opposition...Opposition is part of the parliament in the country I live. In my opinion to much consuming the news is poisonous and you should be able to think twice about the news and get your opinion from different sources. But just reading suspicious forums just leads to believing in weird conspiracy theories and stuff like this. ^^ The live of this guy here seems great, living truely independend just works if you are not hit by any heavy health issue or natural disaster...in that case, you better be part of society. I see the pros and cons, but can't be too romantic about that.
Faaact's 😁
This makes my soul feel good, when I see someone make their own dreams come true, through hard work!
loved seeing the creativity and the boldness of the owner, amazing piece of engineering
Kicked out of high school.
Continued school on his own terms.
Diligently worked his ass off.
Owns a part of a National Park.
Self reliance.
Living with nature.
Accomplishing dreams.
Self made man.
Cool, laid back & humble.
Pure awsomeness.
My only concern is earth quakes.
Some day Im gonna go trick or treating at Grant's house 😁
I am thinking you are GREATLY overestimating this person.

Sorry, I just have to say this “this guy rocks, and I am blown away with this space”.
Pun intended
This is the best I've read in a long time XD
ua-cam.com/video/0FSXCWtSJ8E/v-deo.html
Lmao I'm dying of laughter 🤣
This guy is like the coolest person on the planet oh my God what an inspiration how amazing is his life!!
Nothing about interior layout, architecture, just a happy man with his life.
That’s a bit downplaying. This dream and creation is awesome.
This is actually beautiful and better looking than most houses.
Oh yeah. I agree
Till you have a serious accident and need a local ambulance, or fire department, or any of the thousand conveniences (large and small) that you take for granted. Still, I have always loved the idea of living in a cave.
This is so rewarding I’d rather live like this than in a big city mansion
I absolutely feel the same way.
Same🙌🏽
Mansions are so much overrated.
Then go do it fool
@@gregorysalter6226 dont have to be a dick about it.
"Positive living in a negative space", "negative" means inside rock mass😄. It's like living on Mars, most of all I want to look at the stars in the night sky, it's like a dream coming true!🤩
Such a beautiful home, land, design, and couple! Thank You for inviting us to your home! Seeing all of this makes my heart sing!
beautiful
Grant is such an amazing guy and I’ve been fortunate to spent almost a week in that beautiful home with him. Truly phenomenal
How was the night sky?
How much was the end cost?
@lmao k Maybe because he has a two bedroom rental for guest, but that would require you to watch the video to know this..
Know you posted a year ago - but could you give a little more insight on the pigs? Found it interesting that he raises the pigs off cow milk. Just wondering if he just gives the milk straight from the cow to the pig... Or makes other food from the milk for the pig lol
…AND… he’s wearing a Sublime T-shirt! RIP Brad!
What do you think of my new series "Alternative Homes" where I'll feature homes made with alternative practices and/or materials (any size home)?
I love all your films and made my day... amazing Alternative Homes..so cool,💚💚💚.
amazing
Thank you, yes more!
Tiny House Giant Journey love the series!
I love that you're open to growing your channel in ways that are still very relevant to what started the whole tiny house movement in the first place. Your films are always artfully done --quite calming even-- and I look forward to this new series for sure! Definitely sharing this inpiring home 🙏💞🌵⛺🌵✌
I like how he never expected to inspire people. He just wanted to live independently free from the bonds of the society rat race so he found away to take care of his life and went to work on his dream.
This is a beautiful way of life.. he's lucky. ❤
I'm in an English semi detached house I was born in and I'm in tears looking at your home. It's so beautiful and I'm crying like a baby at 65. Peace n love forever.
Nobody:
This guy: so anyways I started blasting

If a man can get hold of Dynamite in the UK... I can guarantee that his name is Guy F.
Meanwhile Colin Furze makes an Apple shooter and needed a licence just to show UA-cam!!!
I love this. Being in rock you won't need air conditioning, and heating would be minimal. I love how he's growing his own food too.
It feels like a safe place to live. What a dream come true for this man! He had a vision and it came to life over time. Perseverance, simplicity, beauty; what more could you want?
I like a hard worker who not only talks the talk, but walks the walk.
"Positive living in a negative space"
So true, you can live positively in a peaceful place..
You know this is the type of guy that’ll survive a apocalypse without even knowing lol 😂
If there really is an apocalypse, I would not want to survive it.
@@peanutoreo8052 unless you move in with this guy and live away from that scenario. Like it never happened
He is living apocalypse with out one it is a nice place but I hope he has health care and retirement with his rentals I would like to rent from him for vacation he went all in on his dream and it is great but he also built his life with his life just as most spend all their life (good years) to live the end watching birds and making coffee then a light lunch dinner then bed if your not in the care home that takes all the money you made in your good years of life.
@@iceman6518 as long as u love what you do everything its fine. N thats the dificult part most people hate their job or what they do but not change anything. So i admire people who do what they love or realy want and if they can make some money out of that its even better.
@@rc4630 I agree 100%
Thank you for filming this min documentary on Grants life project. Truly inspiring. It has reached me at a turning point in my life and I’m very grateful
Love what he has created! Definitely my favorite of all the homes in your videos!!
*”So anyway I started blasting.”*
This is what I need in the midst of all depressing events.
I hear ya bro...
Wow, what a beautiful cave house! Love how natural light get into the house and it is so beautiful!
I enjoyed watching the video and seeing how he blasted holes and rooms within the rock to create his cave home, The best part is that he created large windows for viewing the scenery from all angles. The gardens and livestock are an important to keep everything going on his land. I enjoyed his quote saying they were 2 miles from the nearest traffic light, that is also going through dirt roads and backwoods.
When you realise he did it for the acoustics 🔥🔥🔥
This is pretty much my dream house. A dwelling that blends in with the natural environment and is a part of it's ecosystem, but still a place that has the latest technologies, and is self sufficient. Beautiful... Love it.
but, where does the electricity come from?
@@KB-ke3fi The water wheel they built
This home o
Is awesome thank you for showing it to us
no internet and starlink is like $600 a month
I've just rewatched this a few years later and what hit me was the stars you can see from their property! And then he says people get inspired when they visit them. Which I then caught Jenna's announcement was that SHE had been so inspired by a non-tiny house, that she decided to create a new channel about unique living spaces! I have this couple to thank for all of the inspiring videos I've watched on that channel. It's a small world. You never know who you'll meet who will become a gateway into a new path of life.
Oh Jesus. I am completely blown away by this house and this video. Thank you so much for making it.
I actually visited this home back in 2015. My uncle is originally from Boulder, Utah and we drove through there on a camping trip so that he could see his old property and talk to some old friends. Lots of gems in Bouoder ❤
This cave house is one of the absolute coolest houses I’ve ever seen. Building a home in a man made cave is my dream home. The fact that he grows and raises all of his food and that his home is pretty much off grid is truly one of a kind and I think it’s fantastic! Man am I jealous! I really shouldn’t be because this man worked so damn hard to build his ultimate home and homestead! 👍🏻👍🏻
This house is amazing! I would love a cool place like that.🤠
I love your channel, I love the fact that you don't play stupidly loud music in the videos, and the content is incredible, keep up uploading and we will keep watching, thank you
This house rocks....
This guy needs more recognition. The house and the architecture is stunning! He's a legend 👏😍
I doubt he wants it
He is definitely legend
It's just refreshing to hear an old guy talk real people talk about how could I ever afford to do it? Very grounded an down to earth.. it's exactly what makes it inspiration for me.
That is an AWESOME CREATIVE IDEA! so green around it.
Pretty close to a "perfect living" if there is such a thing 🥰
what this man has accomplished is more than any man I've ever seen. I've never seen THIS level of self sustainability before. Absolutely mind blowing and much respect.
@Bird Song
I probably would be, but im sure most would take either or both if they could.
"I can't imagine not growing food" as it should be 🙏🏾🌍
It's no wonder 1/3 of Americans are clinically depressed. Humans are meant to hunt, gather, and grow crops.
That cave house was dope! That guy is living the best life!!
"Positive Living in a Negative Space" ......your quote says it ALL !!!!!
Many Thanks!!!!!
While the house is really nice, what I liked the most was the relaxing tone of this video!
I didn't find the disregard for animals for relaxing. Otherwise cool video.
It had flow 💚
@@dustman96 exactly my thoughts.
Animals or THEIR milk are NOT food for humans.
He has PLENTY of veggies for food. Selfish and disrespectful.
@@dustman96 Most humans are meat eaters. Most buy their meat, and in the Western world, buy it ready-packaged. They have no connection with it, just buy a product ready to prepare for a meal. At least he raises the animal, makes sure it lives a happy life, kills it HIMSELF, and does all the work to convert the live animal into a food product. And it doesn't suffer the journeys to market and slaughter-house.
I would prefer that he didn't, of course. The rest of the content of the video is admirable
@@lonely4wd Evolution put animals here for us? Last time I checked evolution had no will of its own. You do have to eat plants, or you will die an early death.
Everything about this is impeccable, the music, the home, the man, the understanding, the dedication, sustainably actualized within it's own truth and poetry. Behold the dream of a life well loved.
Great job!
Creativity and fortitude do wonders, thanks for sharing.
Jenna you do an awesome job. Thanks for all your effort.
Crazy how we are watching someone's hopes in dreams and the outcome of it this video left a mark on me his dream home is beautiful
This will go on to be one of the oldest homes in its eventual eternity.
There’s nothing negative about his space! It’s sooo beautiful and peaceful.
This guy has discovered and lived the life we all spend our lives trying to find. Look at what he has created!
That was an awe inspiring place and video, I’m happy you are branching out and featuring interesting alternative homes!
the guy found what he was looking for all of his life,god bless him.
I can just imagine the amazing extra souns and echos you get when playing music in that place
It's absolutely stunning. That bare and rugged stone inside... I'm in love. Well done, sir!
Simply.... Gorgeous
Beauty of Nature & All It's Elements....
I'm Blown Away ❣️ Thank You for Sharing This💕💗😍🤩
This is sooo soothing to watch and so refreshing I'm out of words. Planting his own food, living in a cave house. Oh man
I have a small 700 year old cave villa with rooms carved into a mountain 🏔 side,
with a terraced garden 🌸🌼 facing an ancient castle 🏰 in a small village in Cappadocia Turkey 🇹🇷
Most of rooms have a small private pool 🏊♀️ , fire 🔥 place, and beds 🛏 carved from the rock in the caves.
(I’m very proud 😊)
Im an American who traveled the world, and found my dream home in the process.
I would love ❤️ to have my home on your channel.
I;d love to see your home featured; it sounds fabulous.
Please do make a video & put it on UA-cam for us all to see .It sounds very pretty & I know alot of people would watch ur video .
Can you make a video? Sounds cool
I'd like to see it, and hear about the process. In the process of building a home, the home builds you so that story would be interesting as well.
Show us!
Arthur, you are living the life! Bless you!
Wow 🤩 thank you for sharing this beautiful place! 🪴👀🙏🛌🙌
What a unique way to live. Love his creative spirit!
I have never seen a house that absolutely blends in with its surrounds as this cave has managed, bloody amazing and beautiful!
Far too many folks just do not realize what true freedom is!
Never thought a house in a cave would look so comfy and cozy... love it.
this guy took living under a rock to a whole new level
Brings new meaning to "Living under a rock"
Sounds great and no longer an insult
We should all be proud to live under a rock.
Yeah, he's living in one instead
Love it. I could live like that. Away from the traffic, noise, crowded places, etc.....just wonderful.
Beautiful designed home, incredible workmanship.....look so peaceful, the tranquility...living out in amazing country scene....worth every minute of it....
By far, the most amazing home I've ever seen! This home will be standing still for maybe thousands of years!!!!! Are you kidding me!? I'm speechless!
Is it coincidence that your names start with words Simp and Cuck. Is that an intentional joke?
Who is this Hitler cat ?
My wife and two friends spend 3 nights in this house thru airb&B.... it was such an amazing time
Wow. You're so lucky
So awesome 💜 truly beautiful 💜 thankyou for sharing this with all of us 💜
spectacularly beautiful --- He did an amazing job on this sanctuary!
Your creativity is beyond imagination! You must feel such pride just walking around your home and property. A life fulfilled 😊
World: where you been living under a rock?
This guy: yep!

😊☺️
And living better than most at that.
@@Carthangion yep
He can literally say yes I've been living under a rock the real Flintstones
Mind blowing and jaw dropping. She chose the the words to describe the awesomeness of the house. Thanks for showing this.
"positive living in a negative space" is my new mantra
This is great. I love it. The thing is people need to be real. He didn't do this overnight. Amy more than the people who started this nation did it overnight. Did it little by little he tells you that while he's telling a story. Kudos to him. And to anybody else who realizes it takes time.
Yes patience and hindsight is so crucial. What a beautiful fruit of that to celebrate. I want to spend a night here so bad!! 😁😍
Debbra Lehrman - Amy More is a genius!
Ah yes... started this nation overnight. Nah just had to kill millions of people and those that survived made it illegal to practice their culture, speak their language, keep their children, or keep their reproductive organs intact among so many more atrocities. Definitely not something you can do overnight.....
Felicity Jones Lighten up, this isn’t the space for that.
If his dog is not named, "Dino," it is one the greatest missed opportunities known to humankind.
Right. Lol
Has he gotten the cat to stay out for the night?

You have not failed to live up to your choice of moniker- great comment!
I got a dalmatian Lou Dogs his name love is what I got it's within my reach it all comes back to you if it's what you deserve
Breath taking!✨❤️
You can’t see the join between the cave and the glass at the sides!! It is so raw and natural. It’s beyond incredible🧐🧐
He cut slits into the rock and slid the glass in - so the glass goes into the rock - no join.
What a gorgeous home. So warm and comforting.
He has built his own Garden of Eden.... Unbelievably, beautiful!
My dads from Boulder, he's 91 now tells me stories of growing up there. You have to be tuff to make it.

@@Peterbilt359 Hell we could be related
Wow! One of the best homes/properties if not the top ive seen!!! 😍😍 HE IS LIVING THE DREAM OF MANY 💜
Words can't do justice to explain the beauty of this house.. you can only feel it.. the man is an achiever.. an inspiration.
Amazing home. I wish I could live in such a place. It’s just priceless and will last for thousands of years
Love the idea of Alternative homes. Can't wait to see more Jenna.
@Tony Mario concrete with rebar does not last as long as just a stone structure. many bunkers from WW2 are in horrible shape, but Roman concrete structures from 2000 years ago are still in great shape. the same is of course true for the stone pyramids and stuff like that.
rebar rusts and expands which breaks up the concrete.
Go build one.
@CHEMICALI3URN dry climate, monsoons only. Sandstone diverts water. No leakage.
@@Big-Government-Is-The-Problem basalt rebar does not rust.
Wow. The amount of peace this guy has to have is aspiring!
WoW!!!! To follow your dream , is such a blessing and I am still chasing mine!!!
I'm so inspired! My husband has always wanted to build a cave home. It seems so much more possible seeing your video. I wish it was longer, with more details, other than that, I really think this is my favorite one. Great job 👍! Thank you so much to all involved for sharing! Much needed inspiration right now!
One of the most amazing houses I’ve ever seen
The most enjoyable video, I have seen in a while. Keep up the mind set. Wow!!! Amazing. Inspiration you are. ♥️♥️♥️
Beautiful remarkable video... Thank you for sharing this with us... Love from AZ :)
I bet the acoustics is amazing in there. Was hoping to hear some with all that equipment teasing...
