Villagers React To Living In Off Grid Alaskan Log Cabin ! Tribal People React To Alaskan Winter 

You should reinsure Raheen that they are not spilling water. That pure water comes from there naturally, so it would flow somewhere no matter what. Also, in freezing temperature, if you close the "tap" the water will freeze inside the pipe, meaning the tap would be useless after. If water flows freely, it won't freeze inside the pipe.

Babu Bhai... so introspective..."some people have a passion to do something different in the world." That was deep.

I think many of us take fresh water for granted.

Let them know that there are very many people who go to live in Alaska to live their lives like this. They love the solitude, the peace and quiet. This cabin is splendid. Looks so cozy 😎

The fact that the first thing these gentlemen said about the guy is how lucky he is to have fresh water... That's further proof of just how good we have it.

I wish this guy in Alaska could see this video, people watching him all the way in India 👍😊

The water coming out is just melted snow...it will freeze and be reused. There is no waste. When people first came to America, for hundreds of years, everyone lived in a log cabin and built fires inside for warmth and cooking. We have figured out how not to burn the place down. This man was not doing this out of necessity, he is doing it because that is what some of us just love to do...experience the peace and solitude of nature. In America, many people choose to be outdoorsmen because we love nature. There is nothing better than waking up in the morning, walking outside, and seeing deer and other wildlife from your front door. I am a woman and I would do this, by myself in a split second...I love cold weather and it is just so peaceful and beautiful.

Wow, Babu remembered Alaska from ONE VIDEO that had 50 states in it! Great memory! Also, this might be a cottage cabin - a place to get away from the city for awhile and get some solitude. Not necessarily a place to live every day of the year.

It's funny to see Raeen get a bit embarrassed when the younger guys start dancing. ❤🥰

Very atmospheric video, fits the season (at least here in the northern hemisphere). What also would be great for the season - showing them various interesting Christmas traditions from around the world! In turn they could tell us a little about that Diwali holiday that Aman mentioned ;)

i lived in the Yukon for 10 years and while i lived in a town, i had friends who lived in wall tents with wood heat and cabins much like the one they are showing. they lived all year long like that except for short trips to town for necessities. many families live this way too

Babu is just to cute, he has a different song following every video. We all could learn from these simple, happy gentlemen, esp how content they seem to be without all of the new gadgets coming out @ least 2-3×' s a yr.. Wonderful to see how much they accept the changes in this blue marble & it appears not to effect their way of life. Just love them all but must say that Babu is my bias if I had to choose. Lol but it's a hard choice to make.

This was so good. The slower pace of the video left them room to really talk things out. One of my favorites.

Been to Alaska once back when my step brother was stationed there in the navy. Beautiful country. Along the Alaskan highway they have gun mounts every so often. After it snows the state sends road crews out to use a cannon to fire rounds into the mountains and create avalanches so they can clear the road rather than let it happen naturally. My step brother told us you can tell who the new people are to the base in winter because it gets so cold the air in car tires goes flat, so you have to inflate them and then let the air out when you get where you're going because as the temperature rises the air unfreezes and will blow the tires out if they are still inflated

These guys deserve their own Netflix show!

Hi! I live in Alaska! That vehicle without wheels is a snow mobile (we call them a snow-go or a snow machine). They run on gas. We love it when we get enough snow to start using them because then we can get around off road more and have more access than we do with cars. We can never store food outside because of wolves and bears and other wildlife that might decide to stop for a visit. That's why he had a lock on the outhouse. Bears are very good at breaking into buildings. For that reason you don't want to leave food products there (except maybe canned) when you leave if you just use the cabin seasonally. Most people that I know that live off grid either don't have a generator, or use it very sparingly. Fuel is not cheap here ($5 - $6 a gallon) so they certainly wouldn't be spending that kind of money to light outdoor lights on the house. His refrigerator is a luxery. I don't know anyone living off grid that has one. We have ice cellars dug into the ground where the permafrost keeps everything cold. Nice reaction and thank Babu for another song!

I swear the lack of knowledge these good people have is a blessing not knowing what's really going on.....BUT as we can see no matter where you live in the world ie poverty the Thirst for knowledge is always there..I love these guy's

Alaska is such a beautiful state and seems very peaceful. And being in a cabin just seems so cozy. You should tell them that the summers in Alaska arent that bad and he must live somewhat close to a toen because he needs gas for his snowmobile

God I love the guy on the far left, when they’re talking about him living there isn’t very possible and the guy on the far left says “just watch and he will show us what we need to do to survive” something along the lines of that.

Love this so much. I live in a place in Canada 🇨🇦 where we have very snowy cold winters and seeing this reaction brings me warmth. Much love and blessings 🙏💕

Tell babu several states in the 🇺🇸 have winter months with lots of snow.

I love seeing these guys reacting to snow. You should show them some videos on crazy snow storms like blizzards or lake effect snow.

Wonderful choice. It's always fascinating to see how they react to people living in cold areas.. LOL, "Babu leave the diesel!" That guy has quite a few modern conveniences, but it's still a struggle in a place like that. Harder with the cold. I admit, even I got a bit chilled watching, and last night our low was 2.7 C. But I'm warm enough just with extra layers of clothes on. 😄 It's nowhere near like Alaska in winter. As to leaving food outside in the snow to store it, yes, that works...but in Alaska, you have to worry about wild animals stealing it. Bears, possibly wolves, lynx, and smaller carnivores. And the last thing you want is animals, *especially* bears, getting used to stealing food around where you live. Show them the bears of Churchill, Canada!

“We all know what’s inside” “Maybe it’s the kitchen”🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

You can tell by Raeen's face when he's excited about a topic, and coincidentally, that always aligns with my excitement about the video as well.

Alaskans don't store food outside, ever. It attracts wolves, bears, and other animals. Bears have even been known to break into houses looking for food. Fortunately most bears sleep through the winter there.

As a Canadian living in a small town in a more northern community I complain about the cold but in reality its the most beautiful time of the year. Proper clothes and hard work keep you more than warm enough. Its not only a beautiful time of year in my opinion the most fun. There are a lot of winter activities that are very fun and very cheep if not free for everyone. We all love where we come from for the most part and its great to see people in other countries appreciating the life a lot of us live here in Canada as well. And yes we do take our water for granted here. We have fresh water springs all over the place that run all year long. And the area I live in has literally thousands of lakes that are all fresh water and many of them clean enough to drink from directly. They would also probably be quite surprised to hear some of us even go camping in the winter with nothing more than a tent and our sleeping bags....

That dark teal color accented with the bright yellows and reds looks really good on Saru's skin tone.

Now show them Alaska in the spring and summer months.

During winters in Alaska, it never gets fully light out for months. Similarly in the summer, it never gets fully dark at night for months. People have to use room darkening shades to be able to sleep. I live in the state of Maine. We get about as much snow as does Alaska, and our days are very short, but we see the sun for several hours during the day.

If the water wasn't moving in the pipe it would freeze.

They keep saying he's alone. He isn't alone. His dog is with him.

Back in the 1960's, a guy documented building his cabin in the Alaskan wilderness. He didn't use gas or electricity. He lived there into his eighties, when he was no longer strong enough to take care of himself, in those harsh conditions. It was shown on PBS, but I forgot whether it was one long film or broken up over a few nights during a pledge campaign. Except for a few supplies flown in, he did everything the old way. In the northern half of the state, you need neither refrigerator nor freezer. Under a couple feet of top soil, the ground is always frozen.

Show to them how traditional villages in Western world look like: - in Central Europe (small wooden houses of thick wood), - in South-West Europe (stone made 2000 years old buildings of Roman Era), - in America and Scandinavia (huge made of thin wood). Here is a video from the poorest country in Europe, the Ukraine.

For anyone that wants to know (I don't remember if they said) the guy in this video has a RU-vid channel called This Is My Alaska. He built that cabin that you saw by hand. This is what his videos are like. He doesn't talk. He just shows you him working on his projects. He does have a cabin in town, that is his main living location. This is his cabin in the mountains. He goes here when he needs to unwind.

Awesome video

Wow, very atmospheric! I think you could also show them what are bigger cities or villages in northern parts look like, something like Norilsk or Tromso maybe?

They salute the curare of man who live in extreme condizioni, and they remember the knowledge they got from previous video. They are amazing!

The vehicle is called a Ski-doo, it has a single caterpillar track underneath and runs on Petrol, Diesel has too much water in it and would freeze.

It's now April where I live, and I'm so glad I won't have to shovel snow again until next winter!

that water looks so good

I lived in Alaska for 7 years, I miss the snow and seeing the Aurora Borealis (northern lights) in winter. Watching the man put his hands in the water to drink reminds me, the water is so cold it makes your fingers hurt! Many people in Alaska wear fur to stay warm. There is so much snow, we had to shovel the snow to keep the roof from falling in! In summertime, it is daytime for almost 24 hours, when I first got there I was awake for 3 days no sleep! There are many salmon (fish) as long as a man is tall, very good to eat (also BIG bears)! *I love to watch the Common Man Show, Hello to Babu, Sarru, Raeen and Anan!*

Born and raised Alaskan here. We fish in the summer. Hunt during moose season. We built our cabin out of railroad ties and wood.

I just love Mr Babu's wisdom and perspective, all of them as well

Babu is the grandfather of all of us. The wisdom of Babu makes us think happily! ❤️

I live in Fairbanks, Alaska! Cold, powder light snow! Warm, wet heavy snow, so colder is better.

I like the way you react and your comments that show your open mind..... thank you, brothers of another continent......!

My young guys , always warming my heart with their humor.

That video made me cold lol Love these guys so much🧡

To any villagers 😉 reading this: running the water out of the pipe is not waste. It must be run constantly during winter because it will freeze solid if its stopped and then there is no drinking water. And also, snow is frozen water. So there is plenty of water everywhere. It does not make clothes dirty but wet. When snow turns back into water and runs down mountain streams through sand its filtered and very pure to drink. That pipeline is most likely connected to such mountain stream.

Things I would send these guys if I had money. For Assam one of those canes that convert into a little seat. Raheen needs a cowboy or Amish hat and perhaps an Amish quilt. The other guys, something they could use to start a small business like a power washer, this applies to Saru as well, but for some reason I think he needs a pan flute. Other things for all... Christmas stockings stuffed full of traditional goodies and toys for the family children. Babu, gets love, all the love. Tbh, I'd probably send him some funny instruments like a mouth harp, slide whistle and maybe one of my paintings.

What a great video to showcase to these wonderful people. Raeen yet again shows so much intelligence and curiosity. If he could travel, he would be off tomorrow (in no Covid virus times of course). Love everything about your channel, keep broadening their horizons please. Thank you. Namaste 🙏🏻💙

Awesome video thanks for making it, y'all put so much work into this channel and it shows!

Gentlemen, what I have noticed as you watch the video, is the ways in which all human hearts are the same. Peace and goodness stay with you.

Many times, a cabin like this will have solar panels and/or batteries to help power the electric appliances. The generator will be used to help, but it isn't supplying the full power to the cabin.

I enjoy Common Man Show videos! Thumbs up! Please keep the videos coming!

it’s always a pleasure to spend some time with you gents. 👍

Uncle Babu is so SMART. He is intelligent ❤ 💕

The reason he checks all the fire on the stove is most likely due to frost, I saw his breath was frosty inside the house, So it becomes very cold inside too when the heating is not on, He must do that to prevent freezing.

Excellent Reaction! I look forward to seeing things new to you all, through your reactions. Thank you!

Liked this very much , people seeing a different living accomodations ..

They need to see Dick Proenneke's "Alone in the wilderness". That's real off grid living. From building the cabin to surviving alone all winter.

WOW! Babu has bongos now! he plays them well.

The reason for the pipe/tap was running was because the water inside would freeze if it isn’t constantly flowing. Also ice expands so if water freezes inside it, the pipe/tap could burst and either no water will flow out or it will get contaminated.

Watching this in Alaska, as an announcement just rolled in that Hawaii is expecting 12 inches of snow and 100 mile an hour winds! 😂

Salam, bahut bahut Shukriya Old Baba for the beautiful ghazal!😍😍😍😍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

That man is not struggling, he is happy

The summers are beautiful though... sunshine for 20 hours of the day. But the winters are hard.

Loved it! Thumbs up from me. Good to see Babu back.

Babu and friends we love you...from 🇺🇸

Babu is an extraordinarily wise man. If he lived in a city would be a uni professor. He would never be a politician or lawyer... he's far too down to earth. I would come to him with any problem I ever had and be comfortable with his advice.

You should do a reaction to Talasbuan. They're a Swedish family who live entirely off grid, no electricity or running water. They also have a three year old son and run a farm.

this is sooo cooool i love this

You should show some off grid living in the desert for the guys to watch!!

I find it funny how everyone seems surprised our homes are made of wood I do understand theirs are not but they should be told having a fireplace won't make the house burn down if u practice safety also that a wood home is warm..I luv this group of guys they are soo Innocent to lots of the world yet are smarter than millions with the different life experiences I learn just as much from them as they learn about the world maybe even more.god bless them

Hello from Alaska 👋 loved the video

Did they notice how little sunshine even in the day time and how short the day was because he lives so far north?

Babu you make my day complete when you song. Thank you.

The water is not wasted, because its spring water and it flows just like the river

Very nice reaction again, and the video was really interesting too. I'm curious, does it not get cold in the winter at our friends' place? It would be great to have a video where we can send questions and if they wish, they could answer, e.g. regarding their food or customs. :) Or do you think it would be possible to have a live stream connection with some people who made the videos that Babu and the others react to, for example Jonna or the man in Alaska? I think that would be so interesting, to ask each other questions and have a nice chat. :) PS: Regarding the open water tap, I also thought that's a waste, but maybe it's just the melted snow that will fill the river bed again?

The water isn't wasting. It's basically coming from the stream and the tap just makes it easier to collect. Turn it off and it will freeze and be useless

Does anybody bother to tell them when they guess wrong about what they're seeing? You shouldn't let them believe we're "wasting water" and that it's not a "tap" but that America has many natural springs, where the water comes out of the Earth, like that, and feeds into the rivers and streams.

The host needs to tell them that this is only one way of living in America. There are many cold places in America where there is an abundance of snow. Snow exists in urban and remote locations. Modern appliances do exist in urban areas of Alaska.

What a gem Babu is!

greeting from Anchorage, Alaska. USA

Well yeah, it shows a guy living in the cold… but with propane, kerosene, gas, generator, four wheeler, a Lincoln log cabin with way too many windows and not much snow… when you live live off grid it's not like that…

love the videos

It's like watching a Grand Dad with his Grand Sons .That's a good thing to Me

Babu for world president!!. Even though Babu was raised in a village with no education system he knows quite a bit about the world and all kinds of equipment. God bless you Babu.

Love to all!

I like these guys!

I love that they are so worried about him being lonely, and assume that he is planning to bring his family with him later... But as an American, I see him living this way, and I assume that he doesn't have a family and that he prefers to live alone. It really shows how different the view of family and community is in different places and for different individuals. I don't think it's fair to put a value judgement on something like that, but I can't help thinking that their way of being surrounded by family and love is better, even though I would much rather live alone in a wood cabin than be constantly surrounded by my family.

There's no water system or pipes in bush Alaska that you can get water from. He's getting that water from a spring that someone rigged a tap to. You can see there's water coming out of the rocks around it, as well. So there's no waste. Also, if the water wasn't running through the pipe, the pipe would freeze. Moving water is less likely to freeze. I live in a village of about 2,000 people. While there is a city water system it serves only about a hundred homes. The rest of us have wells on our property.

I would be interested wether there are any skihalls within a city in their vercinity, it might be a good daytrip for the second channel so that they can get to know about the properties and feeling of snow themselves as it appears to me from some of their comments (e.g. thinking that the stuff got dirty when some snow got on it) that they have never experienced it

That was some fancy living as far as cabins in the north go. He had it easy 🤷 It takes lots of $$$ to live that way in that area.

Dick Proennekke “alone in the wilderness “ is the real deal. You should show them his video of how he lived alone in the wilderness for close to 40 years

I love all the guys. But if I've been watching your videos and my dad asks what I've been watching I always say "I've been watching some Babu" lol

Awwwe... love you guys... I always want to hit a heart

The end of video song and dance is 10/10

You know the man in the video is some rich city dweller who decided to live in Alaska when you see him start a fire ^^
