Oymyakon is the coldest village in the world, and a place I had always wanted to visit for the longest time. But why Oymyakon? Why people would want to travel to the coldest place in the world?
Because it's just fascinating. Like in Oymyakon is so different from anything we're ever been used to.
The town of Oymyakon is located between two mountain ranges causing the wind to focus directly onto the town. As a result, Oymyakon sees the lowest average winter temperature in the world, outside of Antarctica. Since there is no permanent population in Antarctica, Oymyakon holds the record of being the coldest permanently inhabited settlement in the world. Hats off to Oymyakon!
The lowest temperature ever recorded in Oymyakon was -71.2 °C, which is commemorated with a monument on the main (and only) square at the centre of the town of Oymyakon. That is, however, an unofficial reading. On 6 February 1933, a temperature of −67.7 °C (−89.9 °F) was recorded at Oymyakon's weather station - this was the coldest officially recorded temperature in the Northern Hemisphere.
Only Antarctica has recorded lower official temperatures (the lowest being −89.2 °C (−128.6 °F), recorded at Vostok Station on 21 July 1983). The unofficial record cold temperature in Oymyakon is roughly 8°C warmer than the sublimation point of carbon dioxide.
If you guys are interested, I've uploaded a few deleted scenes of my trip to Oymyakon on my Patreon. Find them at patreon.com/davelegenda
Oymyakon...! What a remote place... The sacred cave of Chyskhaan and the Kumis made me think of the immense empire of Genghis Khan...Thank you for your wonderful videos!
I love your adventures :) it's funny to discover something about the country where I was born and lived for 20 years watching videos in English recorded by an Italian guy :D
Thank you for your great work!
Another fantastic presentation. Thanks for sharing it. I think it would be great if you make a return visit, but in summer, and compare the difference.
C'è una versione in italiano?
Why do so many people drive with cracked windshields over there? Is it from the condition of the roads or the cold or maybe both?
The "roads" are made of gravel (small rocks) mixed with ice. Sand is used in places for traction. Basically there are lots of rocks on the ground for big trucks to kick up when they are passing you. Flying rocks = cracked windshields. I doubt the Safelight Auto Glass roadside assistance goes out that far...
Здравствуйте, и добро пожаловать в Оймякон, где сейчас 21°C. It’s not a place for the faint of heart, only advice is to pack the correct extreme winter clothing and protection for devices or the cold will almost instantly drain it, ))). Take a dunk in our geothermal river Oymyakon. Say hi to Tamara!!
woah there's a geothermal river?
Wearing a covid mask. Ffs. The madness went everywhere.
Looking forward to the Premiere 🍿P.S. I hope you made a collab with Kiun B. 😉
She makes cool vids!

Young horse - “foal”
Small horse - “pony”
They look a lot like Shetland ponies that you might see in Scotland

Odd to see a right hand drive vehicle... Guessing it was imported from Japan.
Very common to see RHD Japanese cars in eastern Russia, yes

Love and deep respect from Azerbaijan, my man.
If you want to find karelians, most of them reside in Finland in 'pohjois-karjala' you should check there :)
The temple looks like a place where you acquire Shiva.
It would be interesting to know also about the people's daily life:how they prepare por emergencies, how they keep their food, from where they get it, etc.
there’s a lot of free documentaries
Bel video, anzi bella serie tra la Siberia e terre inesplorate…che mi ha suggerito la lettura di questo libro - “Going to Extremes” writer, presenter and Oxford geography don Nick Middleton visits Oymyakon in Siberia, where the average winter temperature is -47 degrees …
Oyy-myaahhhh-konn
Great video
OMG Another amazing video, i admire you for your courage and i really adore your videos. Thank you for the excellent difficult work! I live in Greece and i watch your videos in 35 degrees Celsius and i really wonder how do you feel during your frozen trips. I also laugh a lot because you have an amazing sense of humour, like me i think you find everything funny in the everyday life!
Who gave Nan-DOR from What We Do In The Shadows a UA-cam channel?! In all seriousness, great video!
🍝
Oh man…I wasn’t quite ready to see the frozen pile of shit underneath the toilet 🤢🤢🤢🤮
would be difficult to do a poo ?
You get used to it🙂

Fascinating, thank you for the content.
Awesome stuff again mate!
One thing I never understand. How could the mosquitos survive the -71.2 degree celsius in the winter...
That’s the record average is -50
@@starexgo3888 Yet this type of winter still couldn't kill the mosquitos...
They are hibernating in the eggs. They live only in the summer, at the end of summer adults lay eggs that hatch in spring. The eggs are special and winter proof.
@@chepushila1 It makes me think about those raw fish for sushi and sashimi. FDA allows eating raw fish as long as they are frozen before. But -71.2 is not even enough to kill the mosquitos' eggs...
@@thomasliangus Well ocean parasites are not adapted to low temps. It never get below 0 in the water... So that's probably why...
