@@vond5829 i live in Yakutsk, sorry to probably upset you and destroying the chances to you living here, but we have +25°C in summer, but it lasts like 2.5 months and winter lasts around 6 months. today is +15°C
Let me explain a little. When they say that Russia is a very cold country, this is only partly true. It's only cold outside. But we don't spend a lot of time outdoors: 5-10%. We spend 90% of our time indoors: home, work, school, university, gyms, swimming pools, theatres, cinema, museums, clubs, etc. It is very warm and comfortable there: 23-25 degrees Celsius. You can wear a T-shirt and shorts, and you will be warm. Russia has huge amount of gas, oil, coal, so heating is round-the-clock and very cheap.
I live in Europe. We don't sleep with hats on. There is no place for propaganda under this wonderful clip. You have gas and coal, but not all of Russia is gasified, and you know it very well. But these facts have nothing to do with the clip.
When you’re born into an environment and that’s all you know, you cope and you understand what has to be done. These individuals who live here have been doing it for a long time… They know how to handle it and it’s amazing
And in the summer time, these parts of the world which experience extreme cold in the winter can get significantly warm in the summer, with temperatures of 30 C not unknown.
Exactly….it is like the old “country mouse, city mouse” story where each thought their home was fine and safe, whereas the visitor found life there hard and scary. We just are adapted to where we grew up, and know the rules and techniques for our home area.
Greetings from Yakutia❄️👋, Basically, we have -47 -54 in winter, but this winter it was -59 Celsius, this temperature lasted for two weeks, it was not just cold, but painful) but we are used to such cold, well, we have cold in our blood)), and in summer it reaches +35 to +40 Celsius, well, this is my small homeland)
Мне, например, очень жалко людей, которые живут в жарких странах или в пустыне, где очень мало воды. Тем не менее эти люди приспособились к такому климату, любят свои родные места. Вот так же здесь.Без настоящей якутской зимы мне некомфортно.
Museum of the permafrost says it all. As somebody who loves summer, this is absolutely mind numbing you have a museum essentially highlighting crazy extreme cold.
I have always wondered how did they ever build such massive and complete cities with such severe temperatures. I am amazed by the people who live there.
@@Fantasylifeuk The snow starts to crackle (talk) above -20c The sound is tight as the frost gets tighter. An easy way to expose scammers from snow videos. This is real.
This is one of the best vlog about Yakutsk that I like the most. I have seen several vlogs about Yakutsk but this vlog have answered mostly all my curiosity how life in the city is maintained. Cheers from the tropical country of the Philippines! Very hot and humid here actually now!
Salute to Yakutians and Siberians.. im from a tropical south east asian country.. Malaysia 🇲🇾where its average temp is 30°C.. sunshine all year round, very hot, humid and tropical rain storms from Nov to March.. Thick lush jungle everywhere.. but iceworks has its attractiveness, being cold and all that.
I live in a humid subtropical climate in the USA. I love the cold!! I don’t like the stuff that can happen to you if things go wrong in the cold but I’d much rather be colder than hot. In the heat you can only take off so much clothing before you will be arrested 😂😂😂. In the cold you can layer as much as you want. I don’t think I’d like to be as cold as the city in the video though.
Interestingly, these cold continental climates, when they warm up in summer, are often plagued with swarms of flying insects such as black flies and mosquitos, which tend to drive the residents to their wits end. I guess the insects are more aggressive as they only have a short time during the year to reproduce.
@@heronimousbrapson863 и ты абсолютно прав, они сводят нас с ума, но народные средства помогают пережить их нашествия, люди удивительно адаптивный вид, мы научились обороняться от них, всем привет из Якутии
What an absolutely mind-blowing look at life in the brutal cold of Yakutsk and the Sakha Republic! This video provided unforgettable insights into how humans can not just endure, but thrive in some of the most extreme climates on Earth. The scenes of you two bravely venturing out into the record-breaking -63°C (-81.5°F) temperatures with proper protective gear were already intense enough. But witnessing the local Yakut people going about their daily lives - from children happily playing in the snow to adults commuting to work - in those unfathomable conditions was genuinely jaw-dropping. Their resilience is incredibly inspiring. I appreciated the thoughtful context around the generations-deep cultural adaptations that have allowed the Sakha people to carve out an existence in this frozen tundra environment. Everything from their clothing, shelter, transportation and even nutrition is precisely calibrated for survival. Yet their spirits seemed completely unfazed by the hostile cold. The footage inside people's homes also highlighted the incredible resourcefulness and community bonds that sustain them. From the warm, spacious interiors to family mealtimes, there was such an atmosphere of coziness and cheer despite the bitter world outside their walls. While the sights and facts around Yakutsk's extreme climate were astounding, it was ultimately the human stories and generational knowledge that made this such a rich, eye-opening experience. You transported viewers to the ends of the Earth to reveal the incredible warmth and vitality of the Sakha culture. An epic journey!
it’s not that hard to live there. i’ve been living here my whole life and i’m used to these winters. i can’t imagine a winter without -60 and fog. it’s like a part of winter for us. we rarely experience wind in the winter that’s why it’s easy to manage this climate 😅
Try living in 48c. You're adapted for that weather most ppl arent. Just like you wouldn't last in Arizona. It is hard to live there if you aren't used to it
Huge respects to people living there. I was born and live in northern Ontario and I cannot handle anything below -15C. It's so painfully cold I'll cry sometimes and we get down to -45C! I'm only staying because my mother is here and my city is really friendly. They are a whole other level of tough in Yakutsk. I'm amazed they can make their lives and living conditions work.
Man, I get depressed when it's below 0°C and cloudy outside. It's interesting that some people are not bothered by the weather that much, because I basically only feel alive when the sun shines lol.
I live in Sweden and feel quite the opposite. I get depressed when Its hot. When Its about 25-30 degrees celsius and sunny I feel really uncofortable. And I dont like warm nights. Up here in Sweden people are more used to 15 minus then 25 plus degrees I think.
Praise ye the LORD: for it is good to sing praises unto our God; for it is pleasant; and praise is comely. The LORD doth build up Jerusalem: he gathereth together the outcasts of Israel. He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds. He telleth the number of the stars; he calleth them all by their names. Great is our Lord, and of great power: his understanding is infinite. The LORD lifteth up the meek: he casteth the wicked down to the ground. Sing unto the LORD with thanksgiving; sing praise upon the harp unto our God: Who covereth the heaven with clouds, who prepareth rain for the earth, who maketh grass to grow upon the mountains. He giveth to the beast his food, and to the young ravens which cry. He delighteth not in the strength of the horse: he taketh not pleasure in the legs of a man. The LORD taketh pleasure in them that fear him, in those that hope in his mercy. Praise the LORD, O Jerusalem; praise thy God, O Zion. For he hath strengthened the bars of thy gates; he hath blessed thy children within thee. He maketh peace in thy borders, and filleth thee with the finest of the wheat. He sendeth forth his commandment upon earth: his word runneth very swiftly. He giveth snow like wool: he scattereth the hoarfrost like ashes. He casteth forth his ice like morsels: who can stand before his cold? He sendeth out his word, and melteth them: he causeth his wind to blow, and the waters flow. He sheweth his word unto Jacob, his statutes and his judgments unto Israel. He hath not dealt so with any nation: and as for his judgments, they have not known them. Praise ye the LORD.
So interesting to see how other people live amazing how people get used to and manage to make a life for themselves in such harsh conditions Iove Winter time and the cold but obviously have never been in cold like they live in here thank you for sharing this interesting place with us Best Wishes from Scotland 🏴
I really liked the video! It was interesting to see the culture of the coldest city in the world. I have no idea how people there survive the winter days
Yup! I was a truck driver and went through all kinds of weathers in all 4 seasons including coldest days during winter. And today I’m still used to it. Love it. Cheers. 😎😎😎🔥🔥🔥
Greetings, it really horrible for truck driver's, I have so many truck driver's as friends and they always complain of having stocked druck in the. Greetings from Miami how are you doing hope you're good
I was born and live in Yakutia. In winter we have never had -81 degrees, as it says on the cover of the video. In Yakutsk, the maximum reaches -58 ° C, rarely -62 ° C. We have a dry frost, without wind, so this is tolerable compared, for example, with the frosts of Primorsky Krai, where along with low temperatures there is a blizzard, storm, wind.
@@bebenut123 -62°C is the lowest possible temperature that happens in Yakutsk. And then not always. Usually the temperature ranges between -30 and -49 °C. -30 degrees is already considered warm for the local population
@@bebenut123 And our winter lasts for six months, in order not to freeze, we have to harvest a lot of firewood in villages where there is no gas heating.
I used to live North Sweden 🇸🇪 town called Kiruna. Temperatures were minus 30 and up. You can get use to the cold weather. And to see the Northern lights, is incredible.
I think you underestimate what minus 50 or 60 means - a huge difference to minus 30 ; for a European, it simply means that you risk dying every time you stick your nose out of the house.
@@gabrielbalbec883-20C or -30C is already like that for ignorant,lazily clothed person. For babies, no going out. big exercise in below -20C risks all kinds of injuries(lungs etc).
I've been a subscriber to Kiun B for a long time now because I'm fascinated by how Yakutsian people have adapted and get on with their lives in a climate where most of us would struggle to survive. This is a great video guys, and provides a really good insight into how these amazing people don't just thrive, but enjoy life in a potentially deadly, but stunningly beautiful place. I'm really, really looking forward to your next videos from here and want to congratulate you both on going from strength to strength with your content.

Now thats a place where only the kindest souls are born, every one of those people were so polite and respectful. This is what more of the world needs, polite manners and such respect for another person That Perma Frost museum looked Wild, bet it looked like a different world IRL in there
You should receive a medal something for making this wonderful vlog. The people living there are truly remarkable for their endurance. If I decide to come and visit probably I have to order a spacesuit, I wonder.
What an amazing and engaging video, fascinating!! It also demonstrates the astonishing resilience of our species. Being used to living in a warm country, I will struggle to live there though, especially through the harsh winters with temperatures exceeding the scale of the thermometer and the constant dense fog shrouding everything. I actually shivered watching those guys get into the water! Your pure enjoyment of touching those snowy trees warms one's heart Julia, very special. I cannot wait for the rest of this series, thanks so much and lots of love ❤❤
Thank you so much Johan! That means the world!! 🙏🏼❤️ It is such a special place in so many ways 🥰 and honestly, I could touch those trees allllll day 😀 Lora of love ❤️

I am studying in Europe and do not even like the weather!! After looking at this video, I have the utmost respect for the people living there in Yakutsk!!!!!!
One of the most fascinating video I've ever seen. I just never imagined a place like that even existed. So interesting. I don't know how you will top this video. So glade you decided to go and make the video. Stay safe. I see that place could be some what dangerous with temperatures so low. Again thank you two so much. Your friend from Indianapolis Indiana.
Those Men going into that freezing water is mind blowing. Where I am right now it is 28 degree's and I was already chilly , but that made me shiver just watching!. That City is pretty cool and interesting.
@@rascal211 You're right, it burns. I live in Russia, at Christmas, not every year, but I plunge into an ice hole and I know how it is, the most important thing is to overcome the psychological barrier when entering the water, and then my feet freeze in the snow if you stand barefoot, the body just burns with fire.
coming from a tropical climate country in Malaysia of South East Asia, the coldest i've experienced was -23 cel in hokkaido peak winter and that was about my tolerance limit to coldness. salute to these guys who live through the winter like it dont bother them.
I love the snow and winter, it brings out the best in people who go out of their way to help others. Fighting the elements make people less susceptible to greed and envy. As a young boy in the fifties, the Uk had a terrible cold winter, but everyone in the village got on with their lives and we children had the time of our lives!!!! East Riding of Yorkshire as it was then!!
Absolutely fascinating. Sorry to all other countries, but I think Russia (and former USSR) is the most beautiful place on earth, with some many diversities in culture, ethnicities, religions, weather and climates, from this frozen world to the sub-Sahara regions in the south, from the Kamchatka to the Baltics, and the nature is most breathtaking w good people living there.
Ever visited our India ? It's so diversified that you can find everything here, every climate, beaches, tropical rain forest, arid area, humid area, cold area, damn cold area, hot area, warm area, monsoon, mountains, hills, Cold n hot both desert, salt desert, India has everything😊
Now, THAT is serious cold! What a fascinating video-thank you! I can’t even imagine that kind of cold. The heat, yes! I live in Arizona. The people that live there are simply amazing. Stay warm, you two!

Although I find the heat in Phoenix to be oppressive in the summer I would gladly take it over the extreme cold of Yakutia in the winter. I hate being too hot but I hate being too cold even more!
This is the best video I’ve seen showing and describing Yakutsk. Living in Florida, USA, I cannot imagine surviving those temperatures. It surprised me to hear they can also have temperatures reaching 104°. Thank you for educating me.
And here I am complaining about the 3 months of cold winters here in Wisconsin, I give them mad props for their resilience and adaptability. Just incredible.
it is really horrible there I have experience huge fall of snow once and it is dangerous so many animals lose their life why humans are stucked inside the house without going to work and that results to seel of properties to earn living
Just happened upon this video. What a wonderful trip you took us on! The way it was filmed, who you spent time with, what you did, all made me feel like I was a guest of a local. Thank you so much for sharing this experience with me. Subscribed.
WELL DONE YOU TWO!! This was amazing. To see permafrost, how they heat their cars, the fog, just everything about the place was astonishing. The people have made so many adaptations to be able to live there and thrive. I didn't know it was a huge city ...thank you for a wonderful video. Suzi
In that location? Gotta be oil-related Thats the entire population of Wyoming Almost the entire population of Alaska Imagine just supplying everything to them Jets can crash due to frozen fuel
Thank you guys so much for the beautiful and amazing video. I live in Maine in the United States and sometimes it gets and feels pretty darn cold up here but seeing something like this was completely amazing. Sure you just so easy we have it here. And what an awesome and beautiful culture that seems to be there. Again thanks so much for giving the rest of us a look. Safe travels and have a wonderful day.
Я 3 месяца жила в Крыму на лечение в 1984 году, и так мерзла , вроде нет снега, но в домах и в гостиницах, здравницы очень холодно, то ли топят то ли не топят отопление, а здесь холодрыга, но тепло в домах, школах, и везде и туалеты шикарные везде в тц и офисах. Главное одеться тепло на улице. Спасибо кочегарам.👍👍👍
Although not related to this video directly I wanted to thank you guys for all I have learned from you. I just finished a documentary about animals found in the permafrost of Russia and Alaska. Because of you I was able to read and picture the places they were talking about. It was a really great feeling! Thanks for the happy moment! 🥶🤔👩🏽🎓🦣🦏
Ah, so you made it to Yakutia!! Did you get a chance to meet / collab with Kiun B? Her year-around coverage of Yakutsk and surrounding villages is mesmerizing 💙💙
This was FASCINATING. Loved how you structured this one. I did some work in Finland in the depths of winter when it got to -20 and could only bear to be outside for half an hour at a time. Painful, like the air was cutting me as I breathed it in. Can only begin to imagine what this was like for you both!!
Ive commented about Lithuania.. yes the air slices your lungs. I kept a scarf over my mouth. Living in Ibiza it did make a change. Such a clean country. I was impressed. People a tad cold though.
Growing up in NDak this video brings me home. We had engine plug-in heaters, and every place had outside plugs. I foresee these returning with the advent of EVs. The wind in the Dakotas is constant and brutal, with windchill temps occasionally well below -70F. Climate change has had extremely noticeable impact, especially on what plants we can garden. You get used to the cold; hockey, skiing, ice fishing. It’s a good life, creating tough, resilient and self confident children and self reliant adults.

stumbled on your channel and I must tell you It makes me miss being able to travel in Russia. I rode a Ural motorbike2000km to Salikard in 2012 in the winter on the zimniks and in 2015 the length of frozen Biakal. For such a cold place I have never met such warm and welcoming people. Tho they all thought we were insane. Thanks for bringing back fond memories of a frozen land,
The coldest I’ve ever been was in Harbin in China. I was there in January when it got to -35C. Quite cold enough for me. Harbin actually has a very interesting history. Their second language is Russian.

For me, a climate like this means you have limited options , life is more linear. You become wired to be grateful for what is. This can be a great relief for those who feel too lost in life. For some people, I believe it's a big draw. But yeah it would be important to socialize.
There is a big difference between Dry cold and wet cold. I worked with a Gal who came from North Dakota and it was -2 degrees in the PNW and she was freezing and I asked her how can you be cold as it is sometimes -54 degrees there and she said " In North Dakota it is a dry cold you get cold on the outside but here with the moisture you are cold right down to the bones."
Yep. I went from Calgary to Vancouver to train some workers. Taxiing in at Vancouver airport I was looking out the window and laughing at the ground crews all bundled up at -11 C. (Thats a borderline light jacket day in Calgary) Then I spent a couple hours with them. Same story
That’s why jumping in the cold water has more effect than standing on dry land, even if the air temperature of the dry land is the same as temperature as the water.
Completely agree. I grew up in this midly cold by 100% humid climate city and it honestly gets as foggy as England with Silent Hill combined. It hurts your bones and certainly no clothes, unless waterproofed and warm enough, can save you. I moved. I no longer suffer 🤣 but I go there once in a while and keep thinking of how I survived my life there. I need a blanket all day 🤣. BTW this is a Mexican city so a lot of people don't believe me but it's true ☝️😬
To be clear, north pole of cold is not in Yakutsk. It's Oymyakon, small city to the north-east from Yakutsk. Min. registered temperature is −71,2 °С. Yakutsk a little bit warmer, only -64.4 °С. Thank you for the video. Nothing changed for 35 years
What a brilliant vlog. Honestly way better and so much more authentic in comparison to the stuff on regular TV. Best wishes for continued success going forward.
@@MattandJulia Well this place is not the coldest place in Russia if talk about the lowest temperature ever recorded in russia. The record lies in Oymyakon. It was -67 Celsius there one winter.
Super 'cool' video 🥶 it's amazing what humans can endure, I cannot imagine how these temperatures feel! Look forward to this series, thanks M&J, take care 💜🔥
People can endure anything provided they've got company! I mean, were it not for contributing everyone's efforts, life in Yakutia would have been much much harsher. But you can see railroads, apartment blocks and enjoy all amenities there just like in every other place in the world despite extreme temperatures. Makes me marvel at what our human race can do when working in unison and not fighting each other.

This morning, 2/4/23, there was an arctic blast in the northeast, and here in coastal Connecticut, USA, the temperature dropped to -4°F with a -20°F wind chill (-20°C, -29°C). It was the coldest air temperature I’ve ever felt on my skin. It actually doesn’t feel that bad, as long as you have a hat, a big jacket, thick pants, thick boots, and thick mittens. It felt good actually.
@@harryyoung7076 I agree, humidity makes cold, and heat, feel worse. -20°C with 40% humidity feels colder, but at the same time more pleasant than 2°C with 90% humidity.
That is so heartwarming to watch ppl making another great video about my hometown 😍 Haven't been there for almost 3 years. Gonna visit this summer 🥳 Missing a lot! Thank you for this video.
Я живу здесь и люблю мою зиму ;) Якутск - самое холодное место на планете,где живут люди.На моей памяти у нас было -73 по Цельсию,я тогда ещё получил ожоги кожи на щеках - заживало 2 месяца. В общем зимой у нас вы замерзнете ооочень быстро ;) считаю,что Якутию нужно развивать как туристический центр,ибо тысячи экстремалов хотят себя попробовать в таких морозах. Сразу скажу,что телефоны тут умирают моментально - аккумуляторы не выдерживают;)
I'm born & raised in California.The coldest temperature I've ever experinced was 22 degrees.I can't begin to imagine or comprehend what -70 must feel like🤯
We are dealing with windchill temperatures as low as -40 in Massachusetts in the US. Schools are closed and I worked from home today. Can’t imagine how cold it is there.
Это логично! Например в Санкт-Петербурге -30 это критическая температура, т.к. обычно такой мороз бывает раз в 10 лет. Но обычно температура не опускается ниже 25. А в школах занятия отменяют для 1-6 классов при -27, для 1-8 классов -30 и для всех классов при -33. В колледжах и университетах занятия не отменяют. Я помню в 2010 году было -34 и очень много снега. Много снега это примерно 1 метр уплотнённого снега. Конечно в городе его чистили, но население 5 миллионов человек, а ведь многие живут рядом с городом, это ещё около 1.5 миллионов. Машины не приспособлены к таким температурам. Техники для уборки не хватало. Люди тоже отвыкают от редких морозов. Но в квартирах тепло, т.к. центральное отопление. Мы даже окна открывали 😆 но особеность Санкт-Петербурга это высокая влажность и ветер с финского залива, (залив переходит в балтийское море). В этом году например было максимум -24 и снежно. Если без ветра, то в целом отлично)) Главное видеть плючы во всем. Если холодно и снег, катвйся на лыжах, сноуборде, санках, коньках и ещё много на чём. Это ведь так здорово!
As an Egyptian who once spent winter in Dnipro, Ukraine, anytime the weather was below -5c I felt like I was dying. Massive respect to the people of Yakutia for thriving in such harsh conditions.
You guys are amazing. To be there in Yakutsk , the coldest time of the year and the coldest in my decades. Meeting the locals and how they survive there. Truly amazing video. footage. Be careful guys. Stay Safe. We love you guys. We don't miss a video. Looking forward to the next video. Can't Wait🥰🥰🥰. Sending you so much love from Richmond, Va. Harriet , Jim and Yuki. P.S. The people there are a hearty group.
Both of you are so sweet and I love watching you two, so refreshing. I love traveling with you and learning about places and how they live. Thank you so much
i'm British and once upon a time we could cope with cold temps, we had nothing as low as this, but l remember -20 and knee deep snow but now the younger generations are so soft, they can't cope with half an inch of snow
What a great insight into life on the Permafrost & showing us how everything has to be above ground; quite the infrastructure. What I noticed was how cheerful the lights/light displays were as you were walking along the ?? downtown area. I have so many questions...but will view your vids to find out more.
Shockingly educational video! Clicked on this out of curiosity of the place not expecting to learn like 10 new things about the way some people live on a daily basis. Thanks!
We rarely get snow where I live up north 🇬🇧 My favourite weather is snow when we get it , rain & fog .. it genuinely recharges me . The summer & sun drain my energy .
How can the same spot on earth have a 200 degree separation between a “cold” winter and a “hot” summer’s day? Shows how resilient human beings really are. I’m glad I got to tag along with you rather than doing this trip by myself!!!
I have so much respect for anyone living there
Hi what's up can you be my friend 😅
@@arielchattoforasteros5550 no
Hmm, maybe I'll like it there. Don't if I can withstand living in such a cold environment but I do know that I hate being in hot weather
... and yet, it's home for nearly 1,000 residents, who wait until Summer time with its 87degrees (I didn't find the degrees sign...🙄).
@@vond5829 i live in Yakutsk, sorry to probably upset you and destroying the chances to you living here, but we have +25°C in summer, but it lasts like 2.5 months and winter lasts around 6 months.
today is +15°C
Let me explain a little. When they say that Russia is a very cold country, this is only partly true. It's only cold outside. But we don't spend a lot of time outdoors: 5-10%. We spend 90% of our time indoors: home, work, school, university, gyms, swimming pools, theatres, cinema, museums, clubs, etc. It is very warm and comfortable there: 23-25 degrees Celsius. You can wear a T-shirt and shorts, and you will be warm. Russia has huge amount of gas, oil, coal, so heating is round-the-clock and very cheap.
I live in Europe. We don't sleep with hats on. There is no place for propaganda under this wonderful clip. You have gas and coal, but not all of Russia is gasified, and you know it very well. But these facts have nothing to do with the clip.
This video isn't really about Russia though is it?
Or the energy in Europe 😂
Which you're incorrect about anyway, but thanks for trying 👍🏻

Ugly and depressing town
When you’re born into an environment and that’s all you know, you cope and you understand what has to be done. These individuals who live here have been doing it for a long time… They know how to handle it and it’s amazing
And in the summer time, these parts of the world which experience extreme cold in the winter can get significantly warm in the summer, with temperatures of 30 C not unknown.
Exactly….it is like the old “country mouse, city mouse” story where each thought their home was fine and safe, whereas the visitor found life there hard and scary. We just are adapted to where we grew up, and know the rules and techniques for our home area.
Human adaptability never ceases to amaze me.
Indeed i am amazed by ice bathing
The citizens who live there- amaze and inspire me- hardships most of us would say - enough. But so warm-hearted and thriving!!!
To add- I've watched a lot of vids on Yakutia- the people are always so heart warming and upbeat!!
Greetings from Yakutia❄️👋, Basically, we have -47 -54 in winter, but this winter it was -59 Celsius, this temperature lasted for two weeks, it was not just cold, but painful) but we are used to such cold, well, we have cold in our blood)), and in summer it reaches +35 to +40 Celsius, well, this is my small homeland)
Yes, extreme cold is painful.
I think probably something in the genes, at least be born there to cope and be adapted to life in extremes.
That's insane. What a crazy place to live. I couldn't do it. It's 50° f where I am. And my fingers hurt just from that lol
I’m blown away. It’s amazing how, regardless of the weather, we find comfort in the small things.

Мне, например, очень жалко людей, которые живут в жарких странах или в пустыне, где очень мало воды. Тем не менее эти люди приспособились к такому климату, любят свои родные места. Вот так же здесь.Без настоящей якутской зимы мне некомфортно.

Alcohol and sex?
Museum of the permafrost says it all. As somebody who loves summer, this is absolutely mind numbing you have a museum essentially highlighting crazy extreme cold.
I have always wondered how did they ever build such massive and complete cities with such severe temperatures. I am amazed by the people who live there.

This is one of the best vlog about Yakutsk that I like the most. I have seen several vlogs about Yakutsk but this vlog have answered mostly all my curiosity how life in the city is maintained. Cheers from the tropical country of the Philippines! Very hot and humid here actually now!
I'd also be interested in your homeland as well as Yakutsk, I'm from England. The world is fascinating.
Salute to Yakutians and Siberians.. im from a tropical south east asian country.. Malaysia 🇲🇾where its average temp is 30°C.. sunshine all year round, very hot, humid and tropical rain storms from Nov to March.. Thick lush jungle everywhere.. but iceworks has its attractiveness, being cold and all that.
I live in a humid subtropical climate in the USA. I love the cold!! I don’t like the stuff that can happen to you if things go wrong in the cold but I’d much rather be colder than hot. In the heat you can only take off so much clothing before you will be arrested 😂😂😂. In the cold you can layer as much as you want. I don’t think I’d like to be as cold as the city in the video though.
@@laikanbarth that sounds pretty intense! Can I visit sometime?
Interestingly, these cold continental climates, when they warm up in summer, are often plagued with swarms of flying insects such as black flies and mosquitos, which tend to drive the residents to their wits end. I guess the insects are more aggressive as they only have a short time during the year to reproduce.
@@heronimousbrapson863 и ты абсолютно прав, они сводят нас с ума, но народные средства помогают пережить их нашествия, люди удивительно адаптивный вид, мы научились обороняться от них, всем привет из Якутии
I find heat and sun miserable. But I wouldn’t want to be in the arctic either! The PNW (British Columbia, Canada) is my ideal climate.
Can we just take a second to respect the people that bared that weather to build this wounderful town and the people in in, just wow.
I wouldn't say respect. I'd say they need sone convincing of the errors of their ways to see the light and get the hell out.

What an absolutely mind-blowing look at life in the brutal cold of Yakutsk and the Sakha Republic! This video provided unforgettable insights into how humans can not just endure, but thrive in some of the most extreme climates on Earth.
The scenes of you two bravely venturing out into the record-breaking -63°C (-81.5°F) temperatures with proper protective gear were already intense enough. But witnessing the local Yakut people going about their daily lives - from children happily playing in the snow to adults commuting to work - in those unfathomable conditions was genuinely jaw-dropping. Their resilience is incredibly inspiring.
I appreciated the thoughtful context around the generations-deep cultural adaptations that have allowed the Sakha people to carve out an existence in this frozen tundra environment. Everything from their clothing, shelter, transportation and even nutrition is precisely calibrated for survival. Yet their spirits seemed completely unfazed by the hostile cold.
The footage inside people's homes also highlighted the incredible resourcefulness and community bonds that sustain them. From the warm, spacious interiors to family mealtimes, there was such an atmosphere of coziness and cheer despite the bitter world outside their walls.
While the sights and facts around Yakutsk's extreme climate were astounding, it was ultimately the human stories and generational knowledge that made this such a rich, eye-opening experience. You transported viewers to the ends of the Earth to reveal the incredible warmth and vitality of the Sakha culture. An epic journey!
Bless these strong, hardy people.
it’s not that hard to live there. i’ve been living here my whole life and i’m used to these winters. i can’t imagine a winter without -60 and fog. it’s like a part of winter for us. we rarely experience wind in the winter that’s why it’s easy to manage this climate 😅
Try living in 48c. You're adapted for that weather most ppl arent. Just like you wouldn't last in Arizona. It is hard to live there if you aren't used to it
@@jamal9613 exactly!

Yeah, so cold that the snow is dry and squeaky.

Huge respects to people living there. I was born and live in northern Ontario and I cannot handle anything below -15C. It's so painfully cold I'll cry sometimes and we get down to -45C! I'm only staying because my mother is here and my city is really friendly.
They are a whole other level of tough in Yakutsk. I'm amazed they can make their lives and living conditions work.
Man, I get depressed when it's below 0°C and cloudy outside. It's interesting that some people are not bothered by the weather that much, because I basically only feel alive when the sun shines lol.
I live in Sweden and feel quite the opposite. I get depressed when Its hot. When Its about 25-30 degrees celsius and sunny I feel really uncofortable. And I dont like warm nights. Up here in Sweden people are more used to 15 minus then 25 plus degrees I think.

I was born and live in Yakutia. In winter we have never had -81 degrees, as it says on the cover of the video. In Yakutsk, the maximum reaches -58 ° C, rarely -62 ° C. We have a dry frost, without wind, so this is tolerable compared, for example, with the frosts of Primorsky Krai, where along with low temperatures there is a blizzard, storm, wind.
-81 F° not C
@Silise-op8qz Yes

I used to live North Sweden 🇸🇪 town called Kiruna. Temperatures were minus 30 and up. You can get use to the cold weather. And to see the Northern lights, is incredible.
minus 30 its not so cold.) Its normal temperature for many cities in Russia in winter
I think you underestimate what minus 50 or 60 means - a huge difference to minus 30 ; for a European, it simply means that you risk dying every time you stick your nose out of the house.

I did some work in Finland in the depths of winter when it got to -20 and could only bear to be outside for half an hour at a time. Painful, like the air was cutting me as I breathed it in. Can only begin to imagine what this was like for you both!!
had the same in Germany when it was -15, utterly freezing, here in the UK it's -3 tonight and this feels cold too, just not used to it that's all.
how are you going to fight with Russia so tender? freeze everything.
@@olivderpo i can't stand the cold and not many do either, there is nothing nice or interesting about being cold
Ive commented about Lithuania.. yes the air slices your lungs. I kept a scarf over my mouth. Living in Ibiza it did make a change. Such a clean country. I was impressed. People a tad cold though.
Maybe some people don't like cold weather, but this video can change your mind and make you enjoy for little changes
Loved this episode. Thank you both and the people of this incredibly diverse city.
Thank you so much for watching John! 🙏🏼❤️
Growing up in NDak this video brings me home. We had engine plug-in heaters, and every place had outside plugs. I foresee these returning with the advent of EVs. The wind in the Dakotas is constant and brutal, with windchill temps occasionally well below -70F. Climate change has had extremely noticeable impact, especially on what plants we can garden. You get used to the cold; hockey, skiing, ice fishing. It’s a good life, creating tough, resilient and self confident children and self reliant adults.
Вот такая наша Родина😍😊. Мы ее бесконечно любим и гордимся каждым жителем Якутии🤩👍🏻
Якутия не Россия и будет независимой, как только Украина покончит с вашей фашистской Российской Федерацией!
Россияне, спасибо вам за красоту вашей души!!!
гордимся, вывозим алмазы, а мост построить не можем, ага
ага так любите что готовы угробить всех в украине
@@region0706 ваше сообщение лишено логіки. Если алмазы вывозят, то значит грузоперевозки есть и сообщение присутствует. Напомню, что из Якутии везут одно, а ввозят другое, регион не находится на полном самообеспечении. Кстати, а почему вас возмущает товарообмен ВНУТРИ ОДНОЙ страны? Вы либерал с прозападной методичкой, что ли?
I just wonder how these tress grown? So amazing
Beautiful land, beautiful people, beautiful storytelling and sharing. Bravo, Matt & Julia 🙏🏻♥️❄️
Thank you so much! ❤️🙏🏼
Amazing video Matt &Julia. Beautiful storytelling. Thanks for sharing Yakutsk with us.
Thank you so much Jenn!! ❤️🙏🏼
stumbled on your channel and I must tell you It makes me miss being able to travel in Russia. I rode a Ural motorbike2000km to Salikard in 2012 in the winter on the zimniks and in 2015 the length of frozen Biakal. For such a cold place I have never met such warm and welcoming people. Tho they all thought we were insane. Thanks for bringing back fond memories of a frozen land,
Thank you so much Eric! Really appreciate it! 🙏🏼 Welcome to the channel ❤️
The coldest I’ve ever been was in Harbin in China. I was there in January when it got to -35C. Quite cold enough for me. Harbin actually has a very interesting history. Their second language is Russian.
Ah cool! We will be there next month, stay tuned for that 😉❤️
Harbin was founded by russia 1898
Russia has some of the most beautiful places on earth, I'm glad you check out Yakutsk, it's trully something special to see and to experience..
Couldn't agree more! ❤️
Praise ye the LORD: for it is good to sing praises unto our God; for it is pleasant; and praise is comely.
The LORD doth build up Jerusalem: he gathereth together the outcasts of Israel.
He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.
He telleth the number of the stars; he calleth them all by their names.
Great is our Lord, and of great power: his understanding is infinite.
The LORD lifteth up the meek: he casteth the wicked down to the ground.
Sing unto the LORD with thanksgiving; sing praise upon the harp unto our God:
Who covereth the heaven with clouds, who prepareth rain for the earth, who maketh grass to grow upon the mountains.
He giveth to the beast his food, and to the young ravens which cry.
He delighteth not in the strength of the horse: he taketh not pleasure in the legs of a man.
The LORD taketh pleasure in them that fear him, in those that hope in his mercy.
Praise the LORD, O Jerusalem; praise thy God, O Zion.
For he hath strengthened the bars of thy gates; he hath blessed thy children within thee.
He maketh peace in thy borders, and filleth thee with the finest of the wheat.
He sendeth forth his commandment upon earth: his word runneth very swiftly.
He giveth snow like wool: he scattereth the hoarfrost like ashes.
He casteth forth his ice like morsels: who can stand before his cold?
He sendeth out his word, and melteth them: he causeth his wind to blow, and the waters flow.
He sheweth his word unto Jacob, his statutes and his judgments unto Israel.
He hath not dealt so with any nation: and as for his judgments, they have not known them.
Praise ye the LORD.
What a lovely place, just seeing it made me feels like being home. Hope I could live there someday.
What's the draw for you? I'm curious
For me, a climate like this means you have limited options , life is more linear. You become wired to be grateful for what is. This can be a great relief for those who feel too lost in life. For some people, I believe it's a big draw. But yeah it would be important to socialize.

This series is priceless, informative, interesting, and quite amazing. Nice job!
You two are so brave to visit such extreme environments!
🥰🙏🏼❤️

Imagine who lives there
Как сказал один поэт : "Гвозди бы делать из этих людей,
Не было б крепче на свете гвоздей! "
Вот такие люди живут в России
There is a big difference between Dry cold and wet cold. I worked with a Gal who came from North Dakota and it was -2 degrees in the PNW and she was freezing and I asked her how can you be cold as it is sometimes -54 degrees there and she said " In North Dakota it is a dry cold you get cold on the outside but here with the moisture you are cold right down to the bones."
Same here in Colorado. Its so dry here thats its not as bad as the east coast where its that chill to the bone cold
Yep. I went from Calgary to Vancouver to train some workers. Taxiing in at Vancouver airport I was looking out the window and laughing at the ground crews all bundled up at -11 C. (Thats a borderline light jacket day in Calgary) Then I spent a couple hours with them. Same story
That’s why jumping in the cold water has more effect than standing on dry land, even if the air temperature of the dry land is the same as temperature as the water.
Completely agree. I grew up in this midly cold by 100% humid climate city and it honestly gets as foggy as England with Silent Hill combined. It hurts your bones and certainly no clothes, unless waterproofed and warm enough, can save you. I moved. I no longer suffer 🤣 but I go there once in a while and keep thinking of how I survived my life there. I need a blanket all day 🤣. BTW this is a Mexican city so a lot of people don't believe me but it's true ☝️😬
Agreed. Colorado 7 degrees and Oklahoma 7 degrees are two completely different climates 😂
To be clear, north pole of cold is not in Yakutsk. It's Oymyakon, small city to the north-east from Yakutsk. Min. registered temperature is −71,2 °С. Yakutsk a little bit warmer, only -64.4 °С. Thank you for the video. Nothing changed for 35 years
Oymyakon
Just a little colder than where I was born , Detroit, MI. Hooraah.
What a brilliant vlog. Honestly way better and so much more authentic in comparison to the stuff on regular TV. Best wishes for continued success going forward.
Thank you so much! Really appreciate it! 🙏🏼❤️

@@MattandJulia Well this place is not the coldest place in Russia if talk about the lowest temperature ever recorded in russia. The record lies in Oymyakon. It was -67 Celsius there one winter.
Super 'cool' video 🥶 it's amazing what humans can endure, I cannot imagine how these temperatures feel!
Look forward to this series, thanks M&J, take care 💜🔥
Exactly💯💯
Thank you so much! Totally agree! Incredible people 🥰🙏🏼❤️
People can endure anything provided they've got company! I mean, were it not for contributing everyone's efforts, life in Yakutia would have been much much harsher. But you can see railroads, apartment blocks and enjoy all amenities there just like in every other place in the world despite extreme temperatures. Makes me marvel at what our human race can do when working in unison and not fighting each other.
It feels very cold, honestly)
@@MattandJulia it is really horrible there I have experience huge fall of snow once and it is dangerous so many animals lose their life why humans are stucked inside the house without going to work and that results to seel of properties to earn living
This morning, 2/4/23, there was an arctic blast in the northeast, and here in coastal Connecticut, USA, the temperature dropped to -4°F with a -20°F wind chill (-20°C, -29°C). It was the coldest air temperature I’ve ever felt on my skin. It actually doesn’t feel that bad, as long as you have a hat, a big jacket, thick pants, thick boots, and thick mittens. It felt good actually.
That's a continental dry cold! You want to see what the same front feels like, after picking up moisture off the ocean going over Newfoundland!!!
@@harryyoung7076 I agree, humidity makes cold, and heat, feel worse. -20°C with 40% humidity feels colder, but at the same time more pleasant than 2°C with 90% humidity.
Welcome Yakutia
Going skiing in Oslo at -21c and experience how that was. I have the respect for these people, doing their daily tasks at -50c and lower
That is so heartwarming to watch ppl making another great video about my hometown 😍 Haven't been there for almost 3 years. Gonna visit this summer 🥳 Missing a lot! Thank you for this video.
You're going back?!?! 🤣

So glad you enjoyed it! 🙏🏼🥰❤️
Я живу здесь и люблю мою зиму ;) Якутск - самое холодное место на планете,где живут люди.На моей памяти у нас было -73 по Цельсию,я тогда ещё получил ожоги кожи на щеках - заживало 2 месяца. В общем зимой у нас вы замерзнете ооочень быстро ;) считаю,что Якутию нужно развивать как туристический центр,ибо тысячи экстремалов хотят себя попробовать в таких морозах. Сразу скажу,что телефоны тут умирают моментально - аккумуляторы не выдерживают;)
Instead of writing comments, stop your government killing Ukrainian women and children.
I'm born & raised in California.The coldest temperature I've ever experinced was 22 degrees.I can't begin to imagine or comprehend what -70 must feel like🤯
We are dealing with windchill temperatures as low as -40 in Massachusetts in the US. Schools are closed and I worked from home today. Can’t imagine how cold it is there.
We feel for you🤣
If it was -40, in the majority of Russia schools would be closed or wouldn't be mandatory to attend
Wow that is cold! ❄️ In Julia’s home city, which is still Siberia, they also close the schools when the temperature is below -30’c ❤️
Это логично! Например в Санкт-Петербурге -30 это критическая температура, т.к. обычно такой мороз бывает раз в 10 лет. Но обычно температура не опускается ниже 25. А в школах занятия отменяют для 1-6 классов при -27, для 1-8 классов -30 и для всех классов при -33. В колледжах и университетах занятия не отменяют. Я помню в 2010 году было -34 и очень много снега. Много снега это примерно 1 метр уплотнённого снега. Конечно в городе его чистили, но население 5 миллионов человек, а ведь многие живут рядом с городом, это ещё около 1.5 миллионов. Машины не приспособлены к таким температурам. Техники для уборки не хватало. Люди тоже отвыкают от редких морозов. Но в квартирах тепло, т.к. центральное отопление. Мы даже окна открывали 😆 но особеность Санкт-Петербурга это высокая влажность и ветер с финского залива, (залив переходит в балтийское море). В этом году например было максимум -24 и снежно. Если без ветра, то в целом отлично))
Главное видеть плючы во всем. Если холодно и снег, катвйся на лыжах, сноуборде, санках, коньках и ещё много на чём. Это ведь так здорово!
@@MattandJulia very cold and unusual for us. Our average low in February is 20 degrees.

Amazing episode guys, keep them coming please 🥶
Thank you so much! ❤️
As an Egyptian who once spent winter in Dnipro, Ukraine, anytime the weather was below -5c I felt like I was dying. Massive respect to the people of Yakutia for thriving in such harsh conditions.
As someone who lives in an area that gets below freezing a handful of times a year, this is mind boggling. Would love to experience it one day though!
That is why we Desperately Need the Global Warming, Because it is Absolutely Not connected with the Global Pollution of the atmosphere .
Добро пожаловать к нам в Сибирь! 😊
You guys are amazing. To be there in Yakutsk , the coldest time of the year and the coldest in my decades. Meeting the locals and how they survive there. Truly amazing video. footage.
Be careful guys. Stay Safe. We love you guys. We don't miss a video. Looking forward to the next video. Can't Wait🥰🥰🥰. Sending you so much love from Richmond, Va. Harriet , Jim and Yuki. P.S. The people there are a hearty group.
Thank you so much guys! Really appreciate your ongoing support! ❤️🙏🏼
Loved the video! It's such an amazing city! Look forward to the next one.
Thank you so much Sarah! ❤️🙏🏼
I would love to live in a cold place, life is much slower. Much better for me.
incredible how so many people stayed and even thrived, i wouldnt have wanted my family to live in these conditions for long
Both of you are so sweet and I love watching you two, so refreshing.
I love traveling with you and learning about places and how they live.
Thank you so much

I love watching you. Great vlog. Greetings from Poland😍😍😍
dziękuję bardzo, naprawdę to doceniam! W tej chwili próbuję uczyć się języka polskiego. Ortografia jest dla mnie najtrudniejsza 🫣
Meanwhile here in Los a Ángeles my coworkers say it’s “freezing” whilst indoors in the office at about 50-55 degrees 😂
i'm British and once upon a time we could cope with cold temps, we had
nothing as low as this, but l remember -20 and knee deep snow
but now the younger generations are so soft, they can't cope with half an inch of snow
Brilliant video! Thank you for sharing your experiences exploring this unique place.
Thank you!! Really appreciate it 🥰🙌🏼
What a great insight into life on the Permafrost & showing us how everything has to be above ground; quite the infrastructure. What I noticed was how cheerful the lights/light displays were as you were walking along the ?? downtown area. I have so many questions...but will view your vids to find out more.
The mist in the air is insane. Eerie but beautiful. That ice slide looks fun I want to go now lol as sensitive to cold as I am.
Shockingly educational video! Clicked on this out of curiosity of the place not expecting to learn like 10 new things about the way some people live on a daily basis. Thanks!
Such a very cold climate , personally I would find it hard to survive but I admire the Yakut people for their stamina and resilience xxx❤❤
It would be so cool to see the city and the people in the summer.
In summer Yakutsk can be very warm to hot. It has one of the most extreme continental climates in the world.
We rarely get snow where I live up north 🇬🇧
My favourite weather is snow when we get it , rain & fog .. it genuinely recharges me .
The summer & sun drain my energy .
How can the same spot on earth have a 200 degree separation between a “cold” winter and a “hot” summer’s day? Shows how resilient human beings really are. I’m glad I got to tag along with you rather than doing this trip by myself!!!
So glad we can bring you along with us Enaid!! 🙏🏼❤️
