Just watched this again for the first time in years, and somehow it's even more striking now, like it's come full circle, the Nomads are free and we're stuck where we are. Very fine piece of film-making Ramz

lots could be learned from these people who're living..away from the more civilized society--AND have this slight feeling of envy for that simple..stress-free way of life amidst the stunning gift of nature CREATED by a GREATGOD--greatest CONSOLATION!!! thanks for sharing..GODBLESS y'all!!!
Thank you guys for filming such an essential video. This was an amazing documentary I've ever seen about nomads living around yet. And I'm super excited about how Kazakh expats dwelling in Mongolia 🇲🇳 keep such a kind of nomadic lifestyle until now, as far as I know, nowadays, we have got out of this kind of nomadic lifestyle thanks to the technologies and modern life advances. Actually, I'm originally Kazakh and live in my fatherland Kazakhstan 🇰🇿. Even though I noticed that in my country nomads do not follow their ancestors' footsteps for the time being now as we use big and all-wheel-drive SUV cars instead of riding on horses and unfortunately, we do not even consume our national house KEIZ UI for shepherding and we no longer hunt with an eagle, so, by seeing this documentary movie I've found some old Kazakh folk songs played in the national instrument Dombyra. I definitely enjoyed it and slightly excited about the Mongolian Kazakh accent. It really differs from ours. Anyway, that's great to know and to have a look back to the way our ancestors did. PS. It would be better to name this film "Mongolian Kazakh Nomadic Life".
Now THAT, is an adventure ! How very well done of you, in every way. Respect was shown, trials and tribulations dealt with. You cannot grasp, how very much better it was to watch, than the (broad brush stroke yet, honest) patreon driven/ faceboo / inst-oh generic trips. Thank you, you very much deserved all the inspiration you no doubt gained throughout the trip. May you keep it up.
An amazing documentary many need to watch, folk just might learn what it used to be like to be part of family life who continue to be in touch with nature. Thank you for the upload.
Beautiful stunning documentary about the Nomads of Mongolia. I love the scenery the people and life!! Love the raindeer part. With life consumed with technology, seeing people living off the land amazing. So Natural!!
You guys touch my heart of being a down to earth giving ur dedications and effort to show where we really started as a human being and i am very greatful and thankful of ur effort showing this momadic tribes documentary.. It is a pleasure to see this Film.. Thousand thanks and God Bless u guys always!
Great work, the climax of the film for me was the ending bit with the eagle hunter starting at 30:47. The visuals, sound and voice over created something poetically brilliant.
dont worry, the way, things, are going, we are all, going, to need, these, survival skills, and most of us, wont, have a clue, how its done, so, whos better off ?
It's sad that we, the peoples of the so called "modern" West world, have lost all our natural connection to the earth. We live in a pseudo world, in a surreal bubble. Separated from the real and authentic conditions of our existence. We no longer share a bond with nature and the other beings that live there. We have removed ourselves both physically and spiritually from the earth give us life. A truly weird situation.
i appreciate your middle ground approach to expressing your opinion and views. yes this is truly a weird time to be alive and in a certain way quite sad.
It is sad but more bizzare is the so called "New Age'' movement where white men try all their best to become shamans living close to nature. This is circus.
Thank you for this wonderful and great documentary. I am a Chinese American that has lived in New York City all my life. I would like to share a piece of thoughts. These down to earth people that we saw on this film are truly people of humanity. If you were a stranger in NYC and wander into a neighborhood, you are either ignored or shot. America wants to democratizes every country, people and society to be like her. Americans proclaimed themselves as modern and civilized people on earth - as we witnessed the lovely, gentle people in this film, who is the true civilized people? Perhaps, some reader ask, why am I still in America if I am so against Americans? I have a complicated situation, suffice to say the US government have confiscated my passport, will not allow me to leave. Allow me to quickly correct what I have said about America. I am not against American but the government; the arrogance and the murdering... .
+Joseph Lee 1. The steppe nomads were traditionally warring tribes, and the lady near the end of the video talked about another tribe raiding hers. It's not "peaceful" there, it's a hard way of life. 2. These "lovely, gentle people" won't be so lovely and gentle when you overstay your welcome. You would be expected to pull your weight, do chores, hunt, work, etc., to support the tribe. 3. They didn't "wander in," they had to wait to be invited in (probably because they'd be shot or attacked if they just wandered in-or maybe it would just be rude!) 4. America has its own culture, and I'm tired of outsiders bashing it. According to you, we're not "truly people of humanity," we're not "the true civilized people," we're not "lovely gentle people," are you kidding me? We all adapt to our environments and learn how to survive in them. Just because ours is different does not make it better or worse. Statistically, it is easier to survive and succeed in the US (plus everything is convenient as hell, especially compared to Europe), but I digress. BTW, I am also tired of our government trying to help all these other countries improve their quality of life, it seems like it is hurting them more than helping. Oh, except in countries like North Korea where 20% of their population died in the 90's due to starvation, and they now pretty much rely on our food donations to survive-I guess we'll just have to make this one exception.
North Korea is closed to the world. Lol and what a country to pick to compare yourself to. It's easier to succeed in America compared to everywhere else, "especially" Europe> really?! Yes there are private charities but America as a country bullies other countries, politically and through war. it also bullies it's own people.
An IGNORNCE OF BRITISH CAN ONLY EQUALISE BY American IDIOTS. DO YOU KNOW SOMETHING ABOUT history of continental Europe? 1207AD and barbarian invasion peaceful Europe by NOMDIC TRIBES?
What a great journey for you guys. An educational knowlege for us to see this other part of the world. The people, their culture, way of life......I am happy and grateful to see this thru the media medium...
Well done guys ! Real story about real way of life ! I m very impressed with your documentary ! Thank you guys ! Please don't stop here ! Maybe in 50 years this nomadic life will disappear completely , like other civilisations or traditions , but you story is forever !
dont worry, the way, things, are going, we are all, going, to need, these, survival skills, and most of us, wont, have a clue, how its done, so, whos better off ?
we are all born into the life we lead on earth. all situations can be paradise or hell. it is up to each and every one how to live a good life. the adventure is in your back yard- or front
Brilliant video well done to you all it was like Traveling on the Silk Road but you got to Mongolia when you all get Old you will look back and say it was a trip of a Lifetime lot of up and down and lots of fun i hope you are all Good Friends to this very day I would think you are lots of Luck to all of you for the Future Finbarr in Ireland
What a beautiful glimpse into these incredible people's lives. I've always been fascinated by them and their lifestyle. Beautiful documentary!!Thank you for sharing!!
It's also because all of our world is interrelated, what happens in one place can affect us in another place far away. Reindeer have hairs that are hollow (to hold air for insulation) and they graze on lichen (which holds radiation like some fish hold mercury) and therefore reindeer have been getting incrementally less healthy ever since Chernobyl. You can even test this with a well-calibrated radiation detector -- Compare some pre-1986 reindeer fur, from older hides, to modern reindeer fur hides. Modern ones read higher than background levels. 😕
Anar-Erdene Nergui At least not so long. Rotting tooth simply fell out within a year.. I guess you have experienced such personally.. Otherwise take a close look at the beautiful natural unspoiled set of tooth presented at 47:30 🐷
What a wonderfully enchanting experience watching this the only thing I could say would make it better would be more detail on the food and the clothing but nevertheless a wonderful experience thank you
Enjoying this video!! Is the music able to be purchased, and where? I commend you for this adventure!! Makes me miss my military days of travel😢 Wishing you continued traveling mercies 🙋🏾♀️🙏🏾💯🇺🇸👍🏾💪🏿
Im trying to understand how they feed the abundance of animals they own in the winter times when its way below zero and full of snow and ice ? Anyone know ?
they travel to a place with more vegetation and less cold. the animals get nice and fat at the end of fall, become very skinny by the end of winter. then, they get fat again.

Mongols are doing what suits their way of life. Unfortunately you would still come back to city. Find a real job so you are not broke af - which at the time of this video seems to be the case.
I would gladly trade 1 million lifetimes of modern day hurry up look at the clock wait stop ,go breath, grocery stores McDonald's , 9-5pm for what? A corporations who care little about your time with family. " Mother nature belongs to man mentality." Give me one life of 93 year living that lifestyle of no stress, and a deeper connection and understanding of our mother earth and her lessons. .......... Wait let's go now lol thank you ! So Part 2 in 25 years🤣🙏 namaste, Happy Day, I will see you on the road 👀❤️ Time for bed it's l:05am here in British Columbia Canada
RbG84 you want to go? May be we can do together? I am from Kazakhstan and also want to travel there. I know the road and language , i have some plan if you like
Just watched this again for the first time in years, and somehow it's even more striking now, like it's come full circle, the Nomads are free and we're stuck where we are. Very fine piece of film-making Ramz
Well made , Well narrated ....
The first thing in ages on YT that I actually enjoyed . No egos No politics No religion , just life 👌

Great documentary! After spending 2020 in limbo, this really lifted my spirits about what's really important. Thanks!
Wonderful documentary of a lovely, humble, hard working people. Well done!!!
EAGLE SEGMENT IS BY FAR THE MOST ENLIGHTENING ASPECT OF THIS JOURNEY.. THANK YOU FOR SHARING
Brilliant film helping people's to understand Mongolian nomadic living. Thanks.
lots could be learned from these people who're living..away from the more civilized society--AND have this slight feeling of envy for that simple..stress-free way of life amidst the stunning gift of nature CREATED by a GREATGOD--greatest CONSOLATION!!!
thanks for sharing..GODBLESS y'all!!!
Stress free? You serious
Beautiful music and an excellent video.
Many thanks for sharing such a wonderful journey!
Very inspirational, love to go to Mongolia, so much to learn

Thank you from Kentucky. You took me away for a quality 55 minutes. I loved it : )
Wonderful. Enjoyed it thoroughly. Some parts of Landscape were similar to Ladakh in India.

Glad to see that I'm not the only one to think that way.
I agree with this statement so much that I had to add a statement to like as well as liking all he other comments here,
💜

A fascinating insight. Thanks for uploading.

LMAO the guy stressing about his VISA is literally me
thank you for this documentary

Best documentary on the Mongolian Nomads I've seen yet. Well done!
A profoundly beautiful, fascinating view into an existence lost by to the onslaught of what we know as the industrial revolution.
All my respect for this extraordinary video !!!
Great video i would love to go nomad for awhile and do what you have done.
Wow! What a journey
Wow excitement mounting.! My palms are sweating
Great documentary so nice
Great job
I've watched documentaries of herders over there and they too rode reindeer. Pretty interesting that people still do that today
Highly appreciated, so real down to earth HOPE to see you guys in Nepal too
we are all born into the life we lead on earth. all situations can be paradise or hell. it is up to each and every one how to live a good life. the adventure is in your back yard- or front
Brilliant video well done to you all it was like Traveling on the Silk Road but you got to Mongolia when you all get Old you will look back and say it was a trip of a Lifetime lot of up and down and lots of fun i hope you are all Good Friends to this very day I would think you are lots of Luck to all of you for the Future Finbarr in Ireland
Wow, I can't believe you used the first 15 minutes!! to talk about the truck.
just AWESOME!!
LONG LIVE GENGHIS!
What a beautiful glimpse into these incredible people's lives. I've always been fascinated by them and their lifestyle. Beautiful documentary!!Thank you for sharing!!
We must never forget nature and kindness. Thats our purpose, and from that, we will grow.
The old woman speaking of their reindeer getting smaller and more prone to illness tells me that their herd needs new blood as it is becoming inbred.
Little Dikkins yep
It's also because all of our world is interrelated, what happens in one place can affect us in another place far away.
Reindeer have hairs that are hollow (to hold air for insulation) and they graze on lichen (which holds radiation like some fish hold mercury) and therefore reindeer have been getting incrementally less healthy ever since Chernobyl.

Sometimes I think us industrialized westerners give ourselves too much credit. Until I need dental work.

Anar-Erdene Nergui At least not so long. Rotting tooth simply fell out within a year..
I guess you have experienced such personally..
Otherwise take a close look at the beautiful natural unspoiled set of tooth presented at 47:30 🐷
good luck, from Mongolia.
Super hezké video 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️🌞🌞🌞
What a great nomad life. Hope you guys share more interest
What a great adventure. Thank you for documenting it so well. I really enjoyed your film. :)
What a wonderfully enchanting experience watching this the only thing I could say would make it better would be more detail on the food and the clothing but nevertheless a wonderful experience thank you
Beautiful! Health much love and light to ALL (gal from oz)

Watch Kate Humble for nomadic life in Nepal, Mongolia and Siberia. The best!
I want to go there for a year..lol
Nice vid.
37:00 he says how fortunate you guys were;" the law is to be obeyed, what would happen if they came..." he states.
Loved it
nice travel video.
Excellent
dope guys
nice one.
This should be called "Mechanic Tribes" not nomadic
They don't have a set living place therefore they are nomadic
😁 lots of unfortunate break downs, but it was a very good and informative journey...thanks for sharing...Peace.
😍 kudos #bucketlist
very impressive
But! 4 of you make it bravely. Well hardship. 👍 👌 ✌️ ❤️
Great
I Love you ALL
Enjoying this video!! Is the music able to be purchased, and where? I commend you for this adventure!! Makes me miss my military days of travel😢 Wishing you continued traveling mercies 🙋🏾♀️🙏🏾💯🇺🇸👍🏾💪🏿
awesome - tweeted it via @asiareportcom // mapped half of Mongolia but still trying to get there. P Jaix. Its far away in many ways.
27:06 whats song name ???so melancholic soulful melody
Enjoy your future travels nomads your soon to find a place called home.
welcome to Warsaw
Im trying to understand how they feed the abundance of animals they own in the winter times when its way below zero and full of snow and ice ? Anyone know ?
they travel to a place with more vegetation and less cold. the animals get nice and fat at the end of fall, become very skinny by the end of winter. then, they get fat again.
Franaflyby they do some preparation for winter mowing the grass to give the animals when they get skinny
You should visite the Nomadic Tribes of Iran
How about a GoFundMe for that elderly lady who can't see.

What year was it?
These brits weren't as prepared for what was ahead, I bet they didn't think it was going to be as ifficult.
free eagle!
super eagle info. had, rescued 2 ferrugeanos hawks. in sw alberta. went to brooks wildlfe park.
no condoms were used filming this video
👏
Anyone know the title of the music at 27:00

As pastoralists, I really relate to the Mongols despite the fact that we're miles apart
Wat voor voertuig is dat??
U have to change your truck
Mongols are doing what suits their way of life. Unfortunately you would still come back to city. Find a real job so you are not broke af - which at the time of this video seems to be the case.
I was a nomads
I would gladly trade 1 million lifetimes of modern day hurry up look at the clock wait stop ,go breath, grocery stores McDonald's , 9-5pm for what? A corporations who care little about your time with family.
" Mother nature belongs to man mentality."
Give me one life of 93 year living that lifestyle of no stress, and a deeper connection and understanding of our mother earth and her lessons. ..........
Wait let's go now lol thank you !
So Part 2 in 25 years🤣🙏 namaste, Happy Day, I will see you on the road 👀❤️
Time for bed it's l:05am here in British Columbia Canada
how to go there? i like to live there and by a eagle
RbG84 you want to go? May be we can do together? I am from Kazakhstan and also want to travel there. I know the road and language , i have some plan if you like
Manat Mustafa salem kazakh brother. there is a lot of kazakhs in bayan olgii province and khovd province. they speak kazakh and mongolian.
RBG hello man i can help u if u come to Mongolia
RBG i live in Bayan -Ulgii.native kazakh
So did any of you go there? It looks beautiful but I live very far away.
fuel guzzling monster
can we spell boring?
Why weren't the other travelers helping the families?? Only the man with long hair helps.
Itsme 23 You seriously believe a half naked city dweller is able to help these highly experienced nomads with anything worth mentioning..?
Like #2K 👍🏼
Why is there a rainbow colored stripe across the front of your truck? Does it represent gay pride as it does in US?
+Jill Ezzell Trying to be funny? But if you really don't know, it's a flag of peace.
+Marius Borgarbúi thankyou
He should cone and see the real nomads on camel, horses and donkeys
