It's a shame this is illegal in so many places. It almost seems like governments are opposed to the idea of anything people can do that's cheap and environmentally friendly.
when theres 2 billion more people it wont be illegal techonology advancing robots replacing peoples work so no work no money so off back to wilderness.or they pay benefits to every one.
in Poland, if you chop down a tree (on your land) that is more than 7,5 centimeters wide you have cash consequences. but thats cool that changed in February this year ;)
Unbelievable. I found this guy's UA-cam channel more than 6 years ago, and I watched every update video he made, showing his build progress. Fast-forward to today, and he's famous for it. So happy for him. :)
Just an observation, and clearly too late to be of any use to the guy now, but generating his electricity by using the permanently running waterwheel would have been less taxing and pretty constant as compared to the bicycle
He probably wanted the exercise. Being out in the woods doing nothing could leave you bored. If I was him. I would of just kept creating. Especially if no one really goes out there to bother him. He seems capable enough to make himself an actual cabin.
Game Bred Duramax They probably noticed he was at a good location. Thus they wanted to build over that property. If he created a popular yourtube channel. I highly doubt they would. Basically doing something like *Primitive Technology*. Yet showing his day to day life as a hermit.
1ukjunglednbraver Gearing could sort that out and anyway it would be a 24/7 supply. Hook up a charge controller and a battery bank and he could easily generate and store enough for a couple of lights and a USB Charge station
Thank you zoomin tv and thank you to everyone for your kind words and thoughts :) ... If you want to see the stages from the beginning of me building this home, please check the video's on my channel :) thank you
the laws in UK are crazy, I own a small woodland, yet I cannot live on it, instead I have to pay around £1,600 a month in living expenses in rented accommodation

If he were really industrious, he would build three more huts and charge rent. Put the huts under management to get better tenants. My dad says, "Always have at least three properties." My mom says that "...your daddy is talking about girls in reserve." Whatever that means.
Garundi P. McGrundy not happening You need to own the land. You need permission. You can't have a unsafe house like this, In the UK landlords are required to have Fire alarms and carbon monoxide alarms Also who would pay too live in these houses?
There are plenty of places where it would have been legal to do this, he should have got planning permission first. Such a shame, I wonder what happened to it?
This dwelling might well be on a tiny piece of land but it is certainly not 'in the middle of nowhere'. Just to get a sense of proportion on the story, there is no such place as Watford Forest. There are no forests in Watford. Watford is on the borders of Greater London inside the M25 with a population of 95,000. The woodland in and around Watford consists of small pockets of woodland managed by the Woodland Trust. This is Merry Hill, a 76 hectare wooded habitat, managed and maintained by the Trust, a charity that protect woodland and the associated wildlife. His hut is only a 15 minute walk to the nearest road. It's not the outback. How can anyone believe that moving (without permission) into such a small piece of woodland earmarked for the conservation of trees and wildlife and building a house is a good idea and can be permitted? Not that the quality of the build is relevant, but this is not the cute mud and thatch structure that the opening shots suggest. At 0.57, that looks to be concrete blocks covered in mud with a plastic sheet roof. With a purple gazebo. I sympathise with the homeless people of Britain, but squatting off grid is not the answer and it creates problems of it's own. Britain's green belt and woodland are being squeezed more and more. Maintaining natural environments free from human occupation is more important than ever. Allowing this guy to stay sends out all the wrong messages.
if there is not much green left, we must protect it.. the mud hut was all clay, stone and straw, no concrete involved lol.. its all environmentally friendly apart from the removeable tarp on the roof that was temporary anyway. If people want to save the land, then live in the land with it, rather than destroy the land, build over it, and have it gone in a spectacle of shops and houses. people usually think of pikeys in their caravans leaving a mess.. but why do they associate that with what im doing? should i also be associated with the acts of the industries, pumping chemicals into the oceans, and polluting the land?? what type of thinking really does these kind of things? perhaps its better this mental illness is treated rather than squander everyone for the acts of these mentally ill people.
@@El-Leionthat’s absolute nonsense 😂😂 Humans have been bullying the planet for thousands of years. Environmental problems didn’t just come around because of modern society. Ancient humans were just as bad as us if not worse when it came to protecting the environment. Neither old or new methods work.
@@El-Leionno encroaching info wildlife territory isn’t protecting the environment or wildlife. How would you like if someone animal started living in your house? The person is disturbing wildlife but interfering with their natural habitats
The complexity of the waterwheel system was outstanding

Shouldn't make him leave, give him a job looking after the woods.
So it's hunting does it matter
Thats nature you fucking mong.
Hes been watching Primitive Technology lol
Yup
tru
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
but he's not as primitive as Primitive Technology...
vRickyz I came here because I was watching that LOL

+Mind Yours wonder y they were forcing him to leave,unless it was private property i really dont see the issue.

the water wheel isnt very good...its to small might light an led not much more

I love how the opportunistic journalist with their pretty suit come visit an hobo in complete awe!
I give him lots of credit. The law needs to change to change to allow cheaper living options for all mankind. WTG nice job.
I half expected to see Yoda hanging out inside the hut
The interviewer seems like a bit of a prick but I love the guys efforts, its how I would ideally like to live, good on ya
Prick?
Ben I already live in a forest.
He interviewed me once... oh yes, he's a harmless prick! 😂🤣😅
no government help so he helped himself better than sleeping rough on the street. he would have been treated badly on the street
WOW! Well done.
Really bad interview!!! Love the guy and his house and lifestyle.
man, that's awesome!!
Respect
the laws in UK are crazy, I own a small woodland, yet I cannot live on it, instead I have to pay around £1,600 a month in living expenses in rented accommodation
If you can not live on it then sell it and buy someplace you can... You have options...
Yeah, Freehold... Sell up!!! 💯
who goes out with intentions of filming and doesnt bring lights?

Amazing I think we all should go back to primitive. Life will more real. Not like this bullshit we have now. Oh what is the new Iphone 7 out?
What's the point of leaving everything we have built?
I was joking
Life would definitely be better ngl
then what? did they live happily ever after?
But does it get wifi?
no.
amazing
i like this style of living but only in a place that does not get below 65 degrees lol.

Nick Antony do u know how much work it takes to cut enough wood to burn through the day and night ?
here we see the basic daily struggles of the mayor of Dundee
Rest in peace

Garundi P. McGrundy not happening
You need to own the land. You need permission. You can't have a unsafe house like this,
In the UK landlords are required to have Fire alarms and carbon monoxide alarms
Also who would pay too live in these houses?
☝🤡🖐 👈👀 👁👁
so nice
actually I would like to be him that's cool
Highly doubt it.
Rip pike ❤
Mud as a building material should not at all be unfamiliar to that journalist; has he ever heard of cob? Anyway, good work.
You should of made mud bricks I made a little house with mud bricks and I added small rocks
There are plenty of places where it would have been legal to do this, he should have got planning permission first. Such a shame, I wonder what happened to it?
The bastards arrested him and knocked it down.
@@oobenoob cruel, rude, disrespectful of them really.
@@AnneWhyte I knew it would end up happening once the media started sniffing around.
@@oobenoob they could have even got him to sell it and use it as a shop or something.
im sad to say that daniel has passed away
"FUCK THE BILLS, IMMA BUILD MY OWN HOUSE."
Does his insurance cover this?
but what about the ghost?
Dang
Cool
the cykle was dumbed. sure
*_why_*
the bastards drove him out?
Wait a tic, ... Ladies and gentlemen we have a Communist dictator in our midst. Lol
