I used to admire the amish for their hard work and simple lifestyle. Then I started working with them and asking questions and I now despise their work ethic and pity that they are forced to live in a cult like "religion."
Ozarks carguy Most Amish communities allow people to leave the community. They aren’t forced and if they are, it’s definitely not every community or family.
@@ozarkscarguy540 That is false, no one is forced to devout their lives to the Amish communities and their church, the youth chooses either to be baptized within the Amish church or to leave the community, any member is free to leave at any time.
They stopped teaching parochial school. They are obeying the Governors orders. Some of them are having their work days cut back for a lack of business. Some of them are making hundreds of thousands of masks for hospitals at their small factories.

To be completely honest, as much as I love the modern luxuries, laptops where you can spend hours upon hours browsing aimlessly, phones with games that give you self gratification once you do something trivial, but I do think that the classic life has certain advantages, and perhaps less depression, because you're trying to survive with the basics, not trying to thrive.
@Robert Sallow I live in Northern Cambria PA and haul their milk and have been to almost every farm in this state. They are allowed to use it for work purposes but they're not supposed to at the home but some do. They have to be extremely careful though because they can get into big trouble with the community.
What about that trip they take when they're old enough to experience non Amish life and decide if they want to keep on being Amish or not? is that a real thing?
it's called rumpspringer and is a period of finding ones self with loosened restrictions for behavior before pledging and being confirmed in the Amish church.
Books depending on what you like to read can be entertaining but I think most of us have become accustomed to getting our entertainment from the internet or TV, so books are typically overlooked
Here's a day in my Amish life *My boy Jebidiah feeds the chickens and Jacob plows (fool) and ive milking and plowing so Long that even Ezekiel think my mind is gone.* Chores i do without them *Churning lots of butter! I raise the barns on monday. Soon I'll raise another.*
Except they forgot to mention that the Amish don't just work until they die. There's certainly barn parties/dances, community days with games and food and other social events. I live surrounded by many and personally know a decent amount of Amish folks and the majority of them kind and giving (outside of their own community) and they'll be the first people to help you without asking for anything in return while the English (as they call us) are happy to just pass by and pretend they don't notice you.
This is actually pretty accurate as I live Lancaster PA. apart from a few facts like they can use electricity, but only for work and the electric comes from solar panels.
I live in Holmes County and can say the same thing. This video sums it up very well. It would be very difficult to go into all of the variations and exceptions to the rule from community to community and sect to sect or even church districts let alone wealthy families that can sometimes tend to make their own rules because they have enough clout in their little corner of the community. I like all of the people who are saying this video isn’t even close to the truth. It’s obvious they’ve barely experiened it for themselves. I’ve lived in this community my entire life. I’ve attended public school with some of them. I have close personal friends. I dated a girl who was Amish till she was eight years old. My neighbors are Amish. Their oldest daughter is our landlord. I’ve worked with them and have driven them around all day several times. I have close family members who drive them every day.

Agreed, they are independent but not isolated at all...we go to same mom and pop grocery and hardware stores as them and they change ownership between Amish and English sometimes
No it isn't. It's just a general overview. The point of the video isn't to go into the the nitty gritties of Amish life but to give people a tiny glimpse. Because you are right. Amish beliefs is very complex. Think of this video as if someone is teaching you the parts of an engine and what they do. This knowledge doesn't make you a mechanic. But at least if you go into the shop, you can explain what's wrong without using the words "thingy" and "doohickey" too much.
Sniper2008009 well for one they do use electricity and the internet, They just don’t believe it being in the actual home so there may be a telephone or computer in the barn. Some use cellphones. They also use power tools and motor vehicles. In terms of issues, Many have health problems, obesity is one because their way of life is being pushed out. The diet is heavy in calories and meant for laborers And many are leading sedentary lifestyles due to the loss of jobs. Many of the children also have genetic disorders because of consanguinity (inbreeding) And because of that require extended hospital stays. The Amish do not have medical insurance and therefore pay out of pocket. A day in the neonatal ICU costs several thousand dollars and I know of several Amish syndromic babies that have stayed there for months. To manage these costs, the community. Pools their Funds together to pay for the hospital stay but due to the loss of jobs, this is straining for the entire community. Speaking of the children, the Amish also have somewhat of a poor insight into Occupational hazards. They have branched out into the branched out into tobacco farming to make ends meet. Many of the children are exposed to the nicotine because they are tasked with processing the leaves. They (children) also handle chemical pesticides without any protection. The amount of trauma in the Amish peds population is also unreal. Children come in with horrific accidents such as following from silos or being crushed by a horse, and then they are neurologically devastated. The parents are also very antsy about leaving because they are paying out of pocket so sometimes they ask to take their kid with a brain bleed home. This is just my personal observations as a physician who treats the Amish population.

Just wanted to let you know most amish don't speak German, they speak Pennsylvanian Dutch, which is a mix of Dutch and German.

The most gangsta Amish person would say to his grandchildren at their bedtime as how he used to sneak past his parents watch at night and visit his none Amish friend and watch UA-cam videos at night 😂😂😂😂😂
DøW Lucifer I disagree. This is relatively accurate. I’ve lived in an Amish community my entire 45 year lifetime. I know them VERY well. It would be difficult to communicate all of the in and outs and the exceptions to the rules but I would say this video actually sums it up pretty well. There are different orders of Amish and different church districts and different communities. They all have different variations. The Swartzentrubers are actually perhaps more strict than this video portrays. I live in Holmes/Wayne County. We have the largest Amish community in the world. Pennsylvania is second. There are communities in North East Indiana, Wisconsin, upstate New York, Sarasota/Fort Lauderdale Florida, Mexico etc.... I’m sure they all have different variations and then throw in the Mennonites which go closely hand and hand with the Amish here in Holmes County and you open up a whole nother can of worms.
There life style isent different. They are just living like how people have been living for hundreds of years. What I mean by that is that they are just living like the years before 1900 if that makes sense. It’s really not that big of a deal
WRONG. Yes, the Amish DO USE electricity, but they generate it themselves, rather than buying it from an electric company, in the belief that the nuisance factor will keep them from using it for frivolous purposes. They use it for cash registers, for instance, and to recharge batteries. Batteries that are used on Buggies they use for Travel. Some Amish Communities Might even have a Van/Truck or Small bus for the need of Longer Travel distance. But Rarely used for short travels or means of everyday use.
Absolutely! Some communities are more traditional, but many have utilized some modern technologies to improve their daily life in a way that still follows their beliefs and values.
@@chloecharbonneau4307 More and More Amish Communities every year, start to adopt bit by bit of Modern technologies. When I lived up in New York years and years ago. There was a couple Amish Communities nearby where I lived. I actually enjoyed going over there when i was a kid and spending time. Few of the People there, even showed me how to do the stuff they did. Tend the animals, do farming stuff. When I was older. Was even taught how to Hook up horses to the buggy and how to drive them. When I turned 12. They let me Drive the buggy alone and actually was able to do some of the Deliveries. In a way I do miss it. but even then. They had Pickup trucks, Horse hauler trailers, couple vans and a Small School bus. Some of the people even had basic just Electric lights. The Amish Family I hung around. had a Telephone too. Only 1 other Family had a Telephone. but, the phones were more for emergencies and business related.
My family came from Mennonites which were an early sister denomination to Amish. There's a couple differences between the Amish you described and the old order Mennonites but overall very similar
I live near many Amish (Grove City, PA). Have employed some on my 33 acres over the last 22 years. Speaking from experience, they are the opposite of happy and intelligent, and the epitome of brainwashed and inwardly sad. It's 100% the step just below North Korea. Cheers.
Psssh, Almost as tough as being a TRUCKER! 14 hour day's 70 hours a week, Not seeing home for weeks or months at a time! Like to see INFOGRAPH make one on us TRUCKER'S! It WILL SHOCK YOU HOW ROUGH IT CAN REALLY GET! HAHAHAHA!
I know there is Hella Sarcasm in here, but I love this lifestyle and I am already living Demi-Amish-Esk. I love it. TV is evil, and I love gardening, sewing, canning and preparing for long Winters. So l am going to make it through Covid no problem. Plus I’m a nurse.
I live in rural Missouri. We have old order Amish, which you describe here. We also have old order Mennonites, which live the same way. There is also new Amish, & new Mennonites. Which use many modern items. They use cars electricity & many live in regular town along side everyone else.
Do you mean an actual gypsy or traveller? Gypsies are usually Romany, as in from Romania, and travellers are from Ireland. It's become a misconception, where travellers are labelled 'gypsies' when they are not.
I wouldn't say that every one of them consider this life as a paradise. Sure there are the hardships, but they have been brought up from birth to live with it.
They don't shy away from all technologies. I heard a few of them can drive cars, have cellphones for emergencies and businesses, computers for businesses only. It just rare to see them openly, and only a few of them are able to operate the technologies.
Amish actually do use electricity quite often. It’s weird, they aren’t allowed to have it in the house, but often times they will have game consoles in their barns, along with phones, etc.

The most gangsta Amish person would say to his grandchildren at their bedtime as how he used to sneak past his parents watch at night and visit his none Amish friend and watch UA-cam videos at night 😂😂😂😂😂
I don't think Amish kids are allowed to have none Amish friends
@@cathulu101_5 I think they can, but non Amish people don’t live near them
Love your vids
its 3 in the morning in aus i cant wait to watch this video
Was hoping they actually made you live with the Amish for a week.
Ive been standing here all my life living in an Amish paradise...
The amish lead a very different lifestyle. WOW!!!
They do it's just s shame this isn't really that accurate of what they are
DøW Lucifer I disagree. This is relatively accurate. I’ve lived in an Amish community my entire 45 year lifetime. I know them VERY well. It would be difficult to communicate all of the in and outs and the exceptions to the rules but I would say this video actually sums it up pretty well. There are different orders of Amish and different church districts and different communities. They all have different variations. The Swartzentrubers are actually perhaps more strict than this video portrays. I live in Holmes/Wayne County. We have the largest Amish community in the world. Pennsylvania is second. There are communities in North East Indiana, Wisconsin, upstate New York, Sarasota/Fort Lauderdale Florida, Mexico etc.... I’m sure they all have different variations and then throw in the Mennonites which go closely hand and hand with the Amish here in Holmes County and you open up a whole nother can of worms.
There life style isent different. They are just living like how people have been living for hundreds of years. What I mean by that is that they are just living like the years before 1900 if that makes sense. It’s really not that big of a deal
Basically like in the old days
I grew up in Lancaster county, Pa. White Horse, Intercorse, New Holland, Bird InHand ect. I'll come back after the video and give my thoughts.
Amish ppl chilling during the Pandemic.
While I’m losing my f*cking mind.
Maybe technology does give us a bad life but I think having a balance in life is the true way to live

@@okbuddy3819 agree
@@Stardustmiku so why you not all dead yet if you wake up and get shot? seems like the unicorn to me, everyone has heard of it but never seen it.
F the teachers
You wake up, you rob a store, shoot your new neighbor, and chill. Easy day
“you wake up the church music . that’s tells you your day will b filled with cleaning “
Nice vid

Know how you can tell if an Amish woman is having her period?
She's only wearing one sock.
☹🤢🤮
Very cursed but I liked it so you get my like.sorry for bad grammar
I don’t get it
Ah yes the curse comment in the wild
@@yarik6543 Ok um how do I explain this you have to take care of it so um use what's there....
No mention of scrapple or shoefly pie. Two of my favorites!
WRONG. Yes, the Amish DO USE electricity, but they generate it themselves, rather than buying it from an electric company, in the belief that the nuisance factor will keep them from using it for frivolous purposes. They use it for cash registers, for instance, and to recharge batteries. Batteries that are used on Buggies they use for Travel. Some Amish Communities Might even have a Van/Truck or Small bus for the need of Longer Travel distance. But Rarely used for short travels or means of everyday use.
Absolutely! Some communities are more traditional, but many have utilized some modern technologies to improve their daily life in a way that still follows their beliefs and values.
@@chloecharbonneau4307 More and More Amish Communities every year, start to adopt bit by bit of Modern technologies. When I lived up in New York years and years ago. There was a couple Amish Communities nearby where I lived. I actually enjoyed going over there when i was a kid and spending time. Few of the People there, even showed me how to do the stuff they did. Tend the animals, do farming stuff. When I was older. Was even taught how to Hook up horses to the buggy and how to drive them. When I turned 12. They let me Drive the buggy alone and actually was able to do some of the Deliveries. In a way I do miss it. but even then. They had Pickup trucks, Horse hauler trailers, couple vans and a Small School bus. Some of the people even had basic just Electric lights. The Amish Family I hung around. had a Telephone too. Only 1 other Family had a Telephone. but, the phones were more for emergencies and business related.
That's was pretty awesome
My family came from Mennonites which were an early sister denomination to Amish. There's a couple differences between the Amish you described and the old order Mennonites but overall very similar
The best (and probably only) song about the Amish is Weird Al Yankovic’s Amish Paradise
I live near many Amish (Grove City, PA). Have employed some on my 33 acres over the last 22 years. Speaking from experience, they are the opposite of happy and intelligent, and the epitome of brainwashed and inwardly sad. It's 100% the step just below North Korea. Cheers.
Psssh, Almost as tough as being a TRUCKER! 14 hour day's 70 hours a week, Not seeing home for weeks or months at a time! Like to see INFOGRAPH make one on us TRUCKER'S! It WILL SHOCK YOU HOW ROUGH IT CAN REALLY GET! HAHAHAHA!
Man..it’s a primitive lifestyle... I kinda likey😏

Girl put some clothes on their are kids on this website like me 🙂
I know there is Hella Sarcasm in here, but I love this lifestyle and I am already living Demi-Amish-Esk. I love it. TV is evil, and I love gardening, sewing, canning and preparing for long Winters. So l am going to make it through Covid no problem. Plus I’m a nurse.
"You and your partner settle down together in bed..." Yep, that's how come there are 8 kids!
I live in rural Missouri. We have old order Amish, which you describe here. We also have old order Mennonites, which live the same way. There is also new Amish, & new Mennonites. Which use many modern items. They use cars electricity & many live in regular town along side everyone else.
My mum was born a UK gypsy. At 14 years old you have to marry an older boy and be a subordinate to him.
Do you mean an actual gypsy or traveller? Gypsies are usually Romany, as in from Romania, and travellers are from Ireland. It's become a misconception, where travellers are labelled 'gypsies' when they are not.
@@ichoosejoy2712 Actual gypsies are not Romanian, they're Indian

I wouldn't say that every one of them consider this life as a paradise. Sure there are the hardships, but they have been brought up from birth to live with it.

Never thought my teacher would use this channel for homework but here I am.
What goes, clip clop, clip clop, BANG! BANG! clip clop, clip clop? An Amish drive-by shooting. 🤣
They don't shy away from all technologies. I heard a few of them can drive cars, have cellphones for emergencies and businesses, computers for businesses only. It just rare to see them openly, and only a few of them are able to operate the technologies.
Amish actually do use electricity quite often. It’s weird, they aren’t allowed to have it in the house, but often times they will have game consoles in their barns, along with phones, etc.

Me:**thinks of nerf**
always been curious about this
Average person: what is it like not living with electricity
Amish memer: it fine I just get pictures of your mom in The mail
Another cool video
I definitely don't want to live there, yeah I'm happy here.
I work as a land surveyor. Part of my job is making sure those PVC pipes sticking out of the ground warning of a gas line are up to code. A lot of land I cover is owned by the amish.
Fasinating. I haven't even watched the video yet, I just wanted to comment.
