How long did this project take you? Incredible work, filming and the effort. Very impressed!
I don't understand why you're not a huge movie producer/director yet. Your story telling is beyond AMAZING
I love how calm you are through the mess ups . true icey architect .
This is something that is on my bucket list for sure. Do you ever think that the "ground" will cave because of your weight plus the weight of the ice blocks?

Amazing Levi. So well filmed. Can we also stop and take a moment to appreciate that creating content in cold weather is also incredibly difficult. Not to mention the physical nature of what you where doing. I am a commercial sports fishing photographer and I shot a lot of ice fishing content. It’s incredibly tiring to just exist and move around in multiple layers of clothing all while your body has to work hard to keep warm. And then on top of that you also have to be creative and work with electronics in cold conditions. So what you have filmed is pretty incredible. Hats off to you! Keep creating!
I'm do UA-cam but also am a videographer and you bring up some great points. The worst is when its warm enough to melt on gear but snowing heavy.
Yes Sir !

I love how this started out quiet like most of these videos go, then day 2, the insanely happy guy starts gushing about his nordic ice saw. Great fun!
As an Indian, who's never even seen snow in his entire life, I'm addicted to all these hour long camping videos, especially in icy environments. Can't stop watching, they're all very relaxing.❤
😂😂😂😂😂😂
same here 😄Only seen snow from a distance once or twice in my lifew and I'm fascinated by these videos and everything that has to do with snow and ice 🤩
Came to Jammu and Kashmir
As an Inuk. This was very satisfying to watch. There’s no right or wrong as long as it works. Keep up the good videos. Happy new year! 🎉
Name checks out, xd
I usually don’t comment on videos or really anything for that matter, but this is some of the best content I have ever seen. I’ve watched thousands of youtube videos and have always had a strong interest in outdoor/survival videos. Your positive outlook on life and your appreciation for nature is so infectious man and rekindled my love for this beautiful floating rock we call home. Absolutely amazing content and filmmaking. Keep it up!!!
Really appreciate that Michael! Thank you
That's great, but by no means Earth is a rock, but a living being
@@Levi_Allen
Next time you need to get naked and join the polar bear club 😂
I ABSOLUTELY agree bro. Thanks for the comment.
fake
SO FREAKING COOL! Man, what an experience, this is how you make the most of winter!
you know it'll be fun when there's a disclaimer
I am baffled he is doing all this by himself. I salute you
Your excitement over that Nordic ice saw was the best, it cracked me up because of how excited you were. It was so wholesome I loved it! 💙🤍
Next time, mix the snow and water in another bucket and use it like mortar for bricks. You want like a slushie consistency. Then, coat the seams with a bit of that mix, and then put the reg snow over that. This will create a much stronger bond. Your bricks can also be slightly rounded rather than slanted. This will bring the circle in toward itself without fighting gravity. Believe me, I know how difficult it is to build these. Practice the craft. Thank you for embracing this, as it is something that is dying out with time.
I think he did put some snow before the bricks so when he dumped the water on it turns to slush.
ummm, so you have a channel where we can experience your expertise? no? oh. i see.....
@@throwdownthenhoedown9074 y should he? So now everyone needs to upload videos in order to have any opinion and knowledge? This is such a shifty comment.
also gonna need some ice clamps so he doesn’t always use his back
@@user-jb2cv3ej5j well said
I think the disclaimer at the beginning was very professional and shows how much you care about nit only the outdoors, but people as well. Beautiful igloo btw 🤯
It’s fun watching you slowly figure out the most efficient way to do this. Really one of humanity’s greatest traits - given enough willpower and enough time, we can figure out pretty much anything. Well, more you than me. I’m sitting on a couch with coffee next to a fire. But only cuz you told me to.
This guy is literally the fit version of jack black. Please keep up such the pure content. Btw your smile is literally contagious! You genuinely seem happy with what your doing. You had me hooked at the first 5 seconds and had me subscribed and turning on notifications after 10 seconds! Have a great rest of your day/night
I can't imagine being in temperatures that can produce ice that thick! Hats off to you for being able to build a structure and film it all - not an easy task!!
(Also, I have absolutely ZERO need for one, but I really want a Nordic ice saw after watching this 😂)
That was pretty incredible Levi well done. Very few people will ever appreciate the amount of work it took to accomplish that and film at the same time in those temps.
Jason
Ayyye Cheers Jason. I really appreciate that. I love seeing your consistency of uploads as well. I dont comment that enough!
Totally agree. It's amazing :)
This's definitely the best video I've ever seen in this year, especially when I saw you bring up those tiny little star-lights and even the scented candles, spend the new-year's eve in this wonderful IGLLO is also a very romantic idea!
Your singing is *chef's kiss* Everyone has already said what needed to be said about how wonderful this is.
Literally could not stop watching this, Levi. You are a different breed. So impressive.
So would you say you were I-glued to the screen?
@@niccudrat get out
The amount of labor that you guys had to put in to building that igloo so quickly is intensive. Great job. Very impressive. And it’s so absolutely freezing out there hard to know how you were able to tolerate it for so long. And I’m always amazed by humans who seem not have to go to the bathroom for weeks at a time.
I’m sure they have a way of answering nature’s call 😅
He built it his self lol
You answered your own question lol labor + layers = hot, if he didn't work intensively, then he would be cold lol
YESS finally someone that understands that camping in this weather is so much more fun!! i'm canadian and winter is my favorite season, i love the cold and the snow and the nature underneath it! now i wanna go winter camping /:
Years ago, when I was in school, we learnt a lot of general knowledge as well as geography and so on, that's where I read how an igloo was built by the people who live in such places. They explained how the blocks were shaped to become a dome over the top, so it will be interesting to see how you go, the information is out there. Apparently the igloo can get so warm that the people took their clothes off once it all warmed up.
That sort of extremely cold climate is not to be fooled around in, so much can go wrong. I do enjoy watching you managing to survive and also like to see the gear that modern people now use which makes me appreciate the bravery and sometimes foolhardiness of the early ill equipped explorers who went up there for science - real science.
Thanks for the great videos - I am here watching, warm and toasty, with a hot cup of tea. Regards to all.
I hope this is fun for you because it’s very stressful for me to watch 😅
Awwwee don’t be stressed : )
Stressed? I found it relaxing, pretty chill video.
As someone who's dealt with cutting iceholes with this type of equipment, it is stressful in real life to do this as well as to watch it, almost like PTSD. I just need to imagine the wind chills on top of the temps, cold water, pieces breaking off, yikes. But it's fun at the same time...
The sounds of the super cold dry ice rubbing together makes my teeth hurt for some reason. I just can't stand that noise, it's worse than nails on a chalkboard to me.
I fear and dare I say, hate the cold but watching others (who don’t share in my sentiments) do incredible things in it is truly humbling and fascinating to me.
I also love your joyful spirit and positive attitude. I think your igloo came out awesome… especially considering all the hard work you put into the building of it. This was pretty amazing to watch and I thank you for sharing your experience with us all!
The work and cold craftsmanship that went into this video is insane.. I complain about cold winters...this is definitely dedication.
This might be one of my favorite bushcraft/ survival/ just wilderness videos I’ve ever seen. This was so well put together and edited. It feels so peaceful to just watch the ups and downs of creating this magnificent structure.
Your energy and positive outlook is so infectious. I found myself smiling and laughing along with you. What an amazing experience. If I wasn’t in so much chronic pain, I’d love to hang out sometime and just chill (pun intended) with you. Thank you for sharing! This brought back so many memories of Boy Scouts survival training.
Chronic pain can be reduced or even eliminated by cutting out the main culprit - animal proteins.
Cut all those animal products cold turkey (pun intended) after spending a week thinking of all the non-animal foods you'll enjoy, and within weeks/months of eliminating that stuff you'll feel like you've got a new well oiled body my friend :)
Cap
The moment you realize that -42 degrees is equal in both Celsius and Fahrenheit.
Actually, it's -40 degrees
No its 43.5 F okay
Fahrenheit what is that ? 😂
What US goes by lol for temp 😂
Just goes to show how utterly ridiculous and moronic Fahrenheit is. Kelvin and Celsius are so superior
An Igloo shape would make the Roof ! ❤
It’s how excited he is, that melts my whole heart❤
In all my years of living and growing up in Canada - this is the first time I’m watching a igloo being made. Thanks Levi for the awesome content!
Yeah that’s cause your ancestors all but destroyed the people that Lived in Igloos not to worry It is the European way of life to Destroy Indigenous people and then pretend to live like them .... it’s disgusting
@@denmarkvessey5063 chill out bro
@@Fckthsht2 Nah I’m sick of this weirdo isht
@@denmarkvessey5063 chill, he didn't destroy anything he's a dude who made a comment
Y’all narrative as a whole sucks People had a Great Quality of Life before Europeans showed up it’s disgusting to see you were pretend that your ancestors didn’t destroy that so you can take up Native Culture as a Hobby
For 10 years on UA-cam this guy deserves so many more subs! Amazing content man!
He deserves nothing. You deserve nothing. Eat dhit.
How this guy has no enough subscribers in 10 years. Hats off to the consistency 👏
Loved this video so much! One of my favorite moments was ur excitement over the ice saw ... your happiness radiates so thank you for putting it out there for others like me who need it❤️
I love it man! I didn't even realize until you started talking about 5 minutes in that you didn't say a single word in the intro and still managed to captivate. I'm not currently able to travel and do this kind of stuff so these videos fulfill my wanderlust. Thank you!
Amazed by all the work you’ve put into this whole project!
Thank you for bringing a smile to my face. I am grateful for individuals who share themselves and experiences that help others know joy. You have been one of these people.
Truly appreciative!
As someone who’s done none of the work, it’s a magnificent achievement, and the whole scene is absolutely magical. I’ve only seen snow twice in my life, and have obviously never experienced cold like that, but it is breathtaking!
So glad you had someone else to keep the igloo warm in the night. Wonderful singing as well. Lastly that Nordic ice saw was a beast and I can't believe how well it worked! Keep up the awesome videos
I love the look of sheer content when you light the second candle inside and look at the camera. That's the face of recognizing the payoff of all the hard work. Looks amazing and I'm totally jealous of the experience. We've gone winter camping in extreme temperatures and dug a quinzhee - it was hard, but amazing. The glass-like ice makes your build fantastic. Thanks for sharing!
Bu güne kadar izlediklerimden en güzeli tebrikler. Adeta seninle yaşadım.
This guy is happy. Straight up.
Keep you centered pin cord in place during the build. Cut the end of the cord to touch the inner wall of blocks at the bottom of the first level. Make sure that the top edge of each new row of blocks touches the tip of the cord with each new row. This will cause an inward angle to each new row and will start closing untoward the top center. This makes the structure quite strong as well.
Great video!
A sphere of this size will collapse and kill you inside, awful advice! Igloos have to be made with an inverted catenary shape. Watch Inuit people making it.
despite the evident cold, these videos somehow manage to feel .. warm! incredible editing, this really makes me want to get out and enjoy the great outdoors. :)
This is amazing! How am I only just discovering this now?! Great way to kick off the New Year! 🤗🎉
finally there is someone who made my childhood dream come true.
This is absolutely incredible!! Gave me old school Survivorman nostalgia, what a great video and an awesome experience! Can't imagine the amount of work that went into not only creating the igloo but filming the process. Keep exploring, my friend! 🤙
As a human from Texas, this looks both unreal and insane. I'd love to see this much ice!
Glad you made the transformation to human, welcome.
@@slimmsherpa9771 it was hard
That's some shit a non-human would say.
I'm a Native Texan, but lived all over the contiguous 48 for periods of time. I suppose I was searching for that amount of snow and ice, but didn't realize how close I was in a few places I've lived until coming back to Texas. The AWFUL HEAT here has me longing to bump into you on an ice covered body of water somewhere like the video shows. Wishful thinking to have more Winter seasons like 2020-21 and 2021-22 that we had in North Texas.
Wow. Your strength and endurance is impressive. 👏👏👏
So cool Levi!! I love watching the process of constructing the igloo. There is something so calming and mesmerizing about it paired with your filmmaking style! Thank you for sharing ;)
Thanks Miles!
This guy is so goofy, and infectious even I'm smiling along with him! Awesome job brother! Stay safe, and happy!
I LOVE that you took a moment to acknowledge all of the people out there like me who were like what the hell and why… that AAA you’re an expert on some level and on some level you’ve been doing this for long enough to realize that there a risk along with your job in time out to point out their risks when we’re driving a vehicle…we get it but I do like that you acknowledged it! And I LOVE THAT YOU ACKNOWLEDGED IT DURING THE BUILDING OF EVERYTHING YOU DIDN’T WAIT TO DO IT AFTER YOU WERE OUT OF HARMS WAY! Love, love, love, it respect it!
Thanks for giving me 30 mins of joy and satisfaction😊😊
Man! The quality of the video and the hard work of yours behind all this .
Just amazing.....
Great job Levi. So much work! It was obvious that the payback for all the effort was well worth it all.
First time watcher. Great to meet you!
Well done man. Cheers!
This is talent! Skill, idea, action, recording, editing, production. Kudos, my friend, and thank you!
It does look pretty with the light shining through it from the inside out.
17:20 thank you for the ice breaking montage that was glorious. Also really impressive work, you can tell this guys a joy to be friends with
amen to that!
This is pretty cool, I'm from a place where ice harvesting use to be a staple and our town was well know for it's ice and it's purity. It's cool to see someone harvest and utilize a unique resource.
Sandusky?
Wow and I don't like being cold. I'm in the tropics and get cold~! That is awesome.
Your personality is everything!
Hey Levi, I recently stumbled across your channel and I'm absolutely hooked. It's fun to smoke a joint and watch you camp out
What a Great Experience!!! Ty for the wonderful Entertainment! 🙂
Just incredible! Thank you for putting this together! That saw is insane!!
Wow Levi. Just amazing. Thanks so so much for showing this amazing build.
I subscribed after watching only this video. This is amazing. I really like how chill you are and how you respect nature. Great filming as well! Keep it up!
This was just mesmerizing to watch
So cool Levi! I’ve tried building an igloo out of snow before so I can appreciate how much work went into this! Well done!
The roof solution my mind keeps going back to is to angle the blocks, probably starting with the second layer for more internal space, inward toward the center until there's a small enough space to put one or more long pieces across the top.
The main problems with this are that 1: I have _no_ idea what the shear strength of ice is so the angles needed might break. And 2: It would be _way_ more work to angle all the pieces correctly.
You use the rope drilled into the ground in the middle to measure out the angles needed to make a perfect dome that supports itself
“Look at the lights! This is like luxury” so freaking cool!!
Literally the coolest thing ive seen all year
This is some intense stuff Levi. Incredible work, and really well shot.
This is insane! what a great job done with this man. So relaxing to watch. Keep safe buddy!
The joy in you when you were showing off the Nordic Ice saw was contagious and I loved it!!❤
your video got me to thinking: make a box the size of a ice block, no top, no bottom. shovel snow into it and pack it down and you've got a block that way lighter, way more insulative that frozen water. if it breaks, easy to remake. don't need a chainsaw, which is definitely a single-point-of-failure, no heavy tools needed. great video, by the way.
In Florida, we also had a "Freeze Warning" today. It dropped to 40F!😳 Gonna see if I can cut some Ice at the beach. Jokes aside, damn Levi, this was so enjoyable to watch. Mad respect for filming all this in freezing temperatures in Canada. So cinematic and enjoyable to watch.
I imagine that an igloo heated with a small wood stove keeps the warmth better, and also protects better against strong winter storms with temperatures of less than 40 degrees C., and predators, than any winter-proof tent.
I considered the warm stove, but would that not melt the ice over time?
Having the interior warm for long periods of time does melt the ice a fair amount. As long as you don't have heat going 24/7 it actually ends up making a more uniform floor after a while. With ice this thick you could probably have the heat on for over a week before seeing an issue with thickness. My only real concern would be how heavy the walls are on the ice over the water.
Oh my gosh, this video was SO much fun to watch. What an adventure!
Levi Allen that was so awesome, you building ICE IGLOO never saw that before thanks for sharing that with me
This is real content.. bravo!! Levi, keep inspiring us. 🙏
What an amazing effort! Kudos! Simply fantastic! 👏👏👏
Hey, man! I’ve been afraid of the snow my whole life. Looks like it IS your life. From the way you handle it to the way you smile, I see your channel is gonna change my life!
こんなに言語が違うのに満足を得られる動画久々ロマンすぎ
LOVE IT! It’s great seeing you not only accomplish this but also having fun and it seems at times reflecting while doing it. What a great share 🤓
I'm watching and getting inspired by his persona on camera. Its genuine and doesn't appear to be fake. Might be a new favorite
I am new here. Honestly I'd say your pretty damn sturdy fella. You cut all that ice, figured out how to get your cold ducks in a row, and got it done either way. Not alot of souls do that for fun lol. All I can say is well done. And dude you look just as frozen as your igloo. Be careful. 😉
Thanks!
It's beautiful what you've done. Thanks
Superman only needed to throw a green crystal into the ice to make his fortress of solitude. Yours is handmade, Kudos my man 👍
Wow this is a truly stunning feat. The effort put into this is amazing and that is an awesome way to kick off the new year. all the best from New Zealand
amazing video as always!
Your too kind Javier
The shots of it in the evening and at night are *unreal*
Absolutely so happy I found your channel and your energy is beautiful. Thanks for the great videos with all the artistry and imagination of the most fun human there is today!
Sooo amazing!! Very impressive work sir I salute you! Never knew they made an ice saw like that, awesome stuff.
What an awesome project! So well done! these last two videos have totally inspired me to go to do some winter adventuring!
It is super fun!
Wow! I’ve never been happier or more thankful to be laying in a nice warm bed, especially seeing all of the snow and ice in your beard! I get cold just looking at you, lol! Given that, however, this is AMAZING! You spent so long and worked so hard to achieve your goal, all with a grin and a sunny attitude, even as you dealt with problems. YOU are amazing too! You’d never catch me dead out there, but I do feel inspired, nonetheless! Thank you so much, it was such an interesting video to watch. Cheers!!
Дружище, ты красавчик❤️🔥
Моё уважение за такой большой труд 👍😁
The fact you went for so long without a fire to warm your hands Is quite impressive
Probably fire going in the background.
Amazing work, takes a lot of effort and dedication. Respect and love
Out of everything, the thing I love the most is that ice saw!!
Dude! That's dedication! Amazing.
You are crazy and I fucking love it. Keep doing all of this adventure stuff. It's so motivating and cool combined with your filmmaking skills. You are the only one make me watch 30 min straight of a chill video like this and be super pumped at the end. Thanks for real
