World's Coldest City: Yakutsk | Extreme Cities | Free Documentary 

within 10 years, the residences will be able to don a bikini and get a tan.

Climate predictions have failed time and time again for the past 50 years. Climate change is not a threat like climate cultists make it out to be.

It’s really not that cold in comparison! Think the very coldest this week was 2°c at night!

Didn't Yakutsk recently record its coldest temp ever? -81? I guess mentioning that would destroy the narrative...eh !!

​@@ahminmabed5166это очень старое видео, в конце 90-х и начало 2000-х

right!!!

they intentionally made our city look poor and depressing... And the documentary is very old as well

Love it when videos are straight to the point!

@@dimasryr3027 I think the depressing part comes with the freezing territory. Nothing can be done about that perception. The poor part, idk, never been there nor plan on going

@@prg4647 you can look at the other documentarys or vlogs and you’ll see the difference, they use heavy dark toned filters here or actually the cameras are just that bad, cuz this documentary is obviously old, and I’m not even talking about summertime, perhaps you think we only have winter?

How is it possible to become 30degrees in the summer if the city’s built on ice? 😮

I just watched the documentary. Would love to visit and witness those temps. I’m here depressed in 27 degree weather. Kudos to you guys.

I just wonder before I even finish the documentary, what foods do you eat there guessing all food is imported or most cause it’s nearly impossible to grow food there correct or have cattle?

​@@kruiseorbruiseim a local from that region not far from Yakutsk. Well we have all seasons spring, summer autumn and long winter. So we can grow all vegetable crops, pick berries and mushrooms etc. In villages people are engaged in agriculture. We have milk products, meat and fish so you won't die of hunger😂

​@@vimbosaDuring short summertime, permafrost does not have time to melt completely.

Check out Norilsk Russia. A city that’s literally cut off from the rest of the country in north Russia. It’s very cold. Very polluted (from all the nickel mining) and very depressing.

@@BostonsF1nest Mother Russia,,,,

...people should not live there. Russia is huge, why anybody would live there?

I moved from Atlanta to Minneapolis in the winter and I’ve never felt so clear. The cold brought me to life.

​@@dianem7677should all of the native Americans move away from the US to some other country because they know the American government will never give the land they stole back?

This place makes Minnesota look like Florida lol

I love heat 🔥

@@rosesippel2932 wow! Glad to know that you do too.

U must be in a major city to have internet in Kenya

@@matthewharris214 your guess is right. I live in the capital, Nairobi. Internet penetration as of 2023 stands at 32.7%, that's roughly 17.86 million internet users. It's not that expensive and again, with 5mbps going for $20 a month, that's affordable to anyone interested.

But excess of everything is bad.

No sun

Cold keeps skin stretched, No so in hot climates where you get wrinkles.

And where I am in Bury, Lancashire and it's 23c in my bungalow and my hands are cold but, then,I am 69 years old.

-27 isn't exactly mild to me, but it's not very cold to me, either. It's all what you're used to, I'm sure. I live on the Canadian prairies, -40 is normal in the winter, or colder, so -27 doesn't seem that bad to me. If it's only like -20 here, in winter, that feels like a really warm day, though! I know it's technically not, but it really does feel like it if it's been weeks of -40.

Im from Texas so anything below 50 degrees Fahrenheit to me is cold.

@@TheGhostOfMichaelJackson Lol yes it is...very potent weed.

You actually never been to a tropical place it seems.

Death Valley, United States enters the chat

Aweeeee, Cape Town local here! I find these Yakutsk/Oymyakon documentaries absolutely fascinating. Where we live is absolutely the opposite right? I almost dream of going to a place like this just because it's so different. It almost seems magical...

9 degrees would sure not be cold to me. I live on the Canadian prairies. It's normally -40 C a lot of the time in our winters, I've seen it as cold as the -50s.

Me. Came from Africa to Minnesota lol. You will be surprised how quickly humans can adapt. 😂 first winter was brutal

@@payitforwardpower9910somali?

​@phoebesekine4783 thinking the same.

@@phoebesekine4783 are you related to miss Cleo

Well we do have some foreign students. You wont believe but some of them don’t wear warm clothing and hats!

I laughed at this too. I'm not sure if the patients were even asked their permission to film, or pull the blankets back and reveal all.. Lol

Thought the same!

😂 I laughed too - not at the patients but how casual the doc was leaving amputation pts uncovered after he stripped blankets off them.😊

😂😂😂😂

I guess the difference is that Oymyakon is a village, not a city. But yeah, Oymyakon is considered the coldest constantly inhabited place on Earth where people live.

First time to see a Tanzanian commenting in English😂

Thank you❤ wish you and Tanzanians all the best too

Facts

YES and Amen 💜

Watch good science based talks on diff views of the subject.

where do you live Rose?

this documentary is made about 30 years ago, now things are much diffrent, 90th were the years of rampant poverty and crime.

​@@virtualvortex3146this documentary was made less than a few years ago...

@@virtualvortex3146 shut up kremlin bot

Where you from?

Они (западные медиа) всегда так делают, выкладывают старые видео о России и даже не пишут в каком году снято. Не первый раз замечаю. И обязательно добавляют инфу про какую-то мафию, про отделение региона от России и прочее+ужасный перевод.

​​@@user-lg6qg8zb3oНу как бы двухтысячные. Тогда ещё сильны были всякие идеи про суверенитет и т.п. Про мафию тут отчасти правда - кому как не строительной мафии было выгодно сжигание бараков? Помнится перед играми Дети Азии в 2012 около стадиона все бараки погорели целиком и полностью… сейчас на их месте многоэтажки В остальном да, как-то депрессивно показали. по ощущениям снято в 2008-2009гг, ещё и цветокор накинули

Это не настоящий ветер, монтажеры добавили

Different in what way?

​@@prg4647отличный вопрос👍 наверное, пятерочку новую построили. Что там может измениться? Холод, огромные цены, люди до сих пор живут в бочках, переделанных под жильё, туалеты на улице, бараки, построенные еще советскими заключенными и полная зависимость от градообразующих предприятий, принадлежащих олигархам. Для чинуш, может быть, несколько многоэтажек построили.

❤

​@@prg4647 infrastructure mostly, but still, there is a limit of what you can do in permafrost.

I was actually looking in the comments to see if anyone else noticed this too!

Почти всегда обморожению подвергнуты алкаголики и наркоманы. Они под действием веществ не чувствуют холод. Жалко их? Их лечат обсалютно бесплатно! Хоть обществу они доставляют кучу проблем.

Ничего не изменилось, стало намного хуже, город разваливается.

🤣

Honesty i don’t know but it seems like [10?] years ago (or even more). I don’t know about interviews but the streets filmed a long time ago. There is a bus that i’ve never seen in my live and i’m 20

That song came out in 99 so either they like old school rap or this documentary is really old lol

In a couple of shots (the one at Mariana's teacher's flat and the one during the music festival) you can see a calendar and a banner that say 2008.

2008

Хорошо что у нас в Якутии нету ядовитых змей, ядовитых насекомых, тайфунов, ураганов, смерчей, землетрясений, только наводнение, но это тем кто живет рядом с рекой, а из животных опасен медведь, но он всю зиму спит в берлоге, есть волк, но он в одиночку не нападет, а остальные животные не нападют на людей, везде есть плюсы и минусы, а у вас как??

Good video

Я живу сейчас в Якутии и все ничего не изменилось стало только хуже

@@ocean440 а поподробнее?? СлабО?))

@@mariak6009 Цены повысились на 50%, дорог все так же нет. На улицах Якутска собаки едят людей. Между прочем профессора из СВФУ собаки сьели. Все в соц сетях обсуждали. Цены на электричество, газ, нефть повысили, комуналку повысили. А воду выключают постоянно, в этом году уже больше 10 раз выключали. Электричество все время ломается, раньше такого не было. МТС, билайн, йота, ростелеком бывает нет связи, опять же, аварии что то участились. И так далее... Ленский мост не строят , а обещали... Люди все равно живут в деревяшках. И эти деревяшки никто не ремонтирует. Весь Якутск разваливается по частям. Дети погибают прямо во дворе из-за аварийного состояния детских площадок, на головы им летят обломки этих площадок. Алкашей стало больше... Самолеты ломаются чаще, и вообще что то их стало намного меньше. Люди из дальних деревень тратят всю зарплату(в основном берут кредиты) на билет в самолет в Якутск, чтобы полечится и операцию сделать. Цена на билет от 70 000 рублей....А зарплаты не повысили

Да изменилось, и так, что я приехала и не узнала , везде стройки ...правда, как всегда -построят роскошное здание посреди хибар))) И тепло везде, топят на совесть !

И люди добрые ❤

Как вы надоели уже со своим дураком Солженицыным и его ГУЛАГом

Its Russia lol

You noticed the professor's calendar, too. 2008 or maybe she just liked the graphics. 🥶

I noticed the calendar so that I know the year

Nope. It’s from 2010 and the director Davis Rosanis goes back to Yakutsk fairly regularly. Things have not changed that much.

@@FreeDocumentary the old aiport terminal was demolished in 1995 ... and in the documentary there is the old airport building. I live in Yakutsk and know it.

@@FreeDocumentary also the way people are dressed and peoples appartments are old fashioned in this documentary.

@@virtualvortex3146 I live in Yakutsk too. And its not changed much. its gotten even worse. The cost of living is insane. Oil and electricity have gotten more pricey. Products in markets have risen about 50%

@@FreeDocumentary in 20:46 you can see the year; which is 2008. So 15 years old. And on what basis do you claim that things haven't changed that much? Have you been to Yakutsk yourself?

this documentary is made about 30 years ago, now things are much diffrent, 90th were the years of rampant poverty and crime.

@@virtualvortex3146 this documentary was made in 2008

@@virtualvortex3146 definately not that long ago. I'd say late 2000s or early 2010s, judging by the mashrukta models in use.

​@@Pythoner магазин антошка в 2006 или 2007 снесли, он тут есть в фильме, стоит на месте. В 2008 уже цум начали строить, и достроили в 2010.

I think it’s really cold here in England

It's not cold yet but it will get cold in Canada this month.

Will a pretty chilly Belgium do? 12 Celsius as we speak.

What! Sun is out, stunning day here in the cotswolds must be 16°C, positively tropical old thing👌

@@biggrimes1711im from freezing England but I left with a one way ticket to Mexico 6 years ago😂
