Николай настоящий пример мужчины,всё умеет! Хотелось бы пожелать Николаю и его семье счастья и здоровья.👍🏻

Awesome dedication by the Firefighters. I spent 35 years in the fire service and faced some harsh winter conditions, but nothing like that! However, one thing we all have in common, no matter where we are is our families are always happy and relieved when we return home safely after each shift.
-
The fact that nobody’s commenting on the fact that these workers are so incredibly underpaid, especially the street cleaners, is crazy!
-
Nicolai smiled the whole time in that video, God bless him! I love these videos & I adore these people & their families...I feel like they are part of my family too.
-
I love all these videos because it's such a fascinating exciting look into the lives of people who live so differently than I do, but my favorite part is the realness of the subjects in these videos. I love their shy smiles and excitement in front of the camera, as they candidly share their lives and show their personalities. These videos are so well done!

I'm from a Nordic country that's considered quite cold enough. But this Yakutsk stuff is on another level. I find it quite unbelievable that they would do construction (and the other jobs) at those temperatures. They seem like great and tough people though, all the best to the people of Yakutsk.
-
As someone who works in sunny southern California, the way these guys work in the cold is fascinating. We never have to worry about pipes+hydrants freezing, frostbite, or the engines/trucks not starting due to the temperature and it's admirable how they have adapted to these challenges
-
A very enlightening episode. I was a Building Contractor in Southern California. The crews there complained about everything all the time. It amazes me to see people in your part of the world work in the most miserable conditions and not complain. My respect for your culture is at the highest levels.
-
This was professional-grade :) Your mini-documentaries are getting higher and higher quality :) I love watching your tales of life in the harsh north.

Yakutsk seems like such a tightnit community. A strong family mixed with a wholesome community sounds like a perfect place to raise a family. I'm not sure why but I always have tears running down my face when I watch these videos. There's something wholesome and organic about simple living that I wish one day I can experience first hand. Thank you for these videos. Blessings...

These people are hardworking and HUMBLE, and seem much happier for it. We here in the West should take notes.
-
I’m from Siberia too but it’s not so cold here like in Yakutia ❤ you are brave guys 👍🏻
-
I am an architecture student and have been working as an intern architect for two years now it’s very cool to see how you guys in an extremely harsh environment build houses and choose materials. Thank you for sharing as always!
-
From Canada to Denmark and you, there is always one thing in common,the climate forces people to support each other.
-
The people that live in these regions are absolutely amazing! In finding ways to go about their day as normal as they do is astounding! Many thumbs up to them, just watching and listening we learn a lot❤
-
this is why the internet was made. Love it! Relaxing voice ... good story, so much positivity. Really loving it.
-
Wow, his home workshop is very impressive! I admire craftspeople.
-
The people of Yakutsk are definitely amazing and resilient. I have lived in Nigeria all my life. Lagos Nigeria to be precised. I spent a year in Northern Nigeria (Kano State) and experienced painfully cold harmattan and thought that was the harshest weather ever. I am now certain that my experience then was a joke compared to what this people face day by day for 9 months! Your channel exposed me to life in other parts of the world. Thank you for that.
-
These guys are the real heroes.

The street cleaners cool down when taking a break 😅. Working keeps them warm. What a tough job.
