Visiting the COLDEST CITY in the World (-71°C, -96°F) YAKUTSK / YAKUTIA

This is a city where literally everyone is just chillin.

They keep their food in fridges, to prevent it from being frozen outside.

it's kinda crazy how nobody's talking about the forbidden ebook called Secret Pathway to Triumph

Sorry for my english in advance* Me and my family once nearly died when our car broke down just as he said at 9:00. I was 8 back then. It was not in Yakutsk but it was a similar area, and it was about the same temperature, -47C or -58F. We stuck in a wilderness. And, worst of all, it was at night. My dad left the car to stop someone else on the road so they could transfer us to safety using a cable but there were no cars, maybe like one in 10 or 20 minutes, and no one stoped for us because it was actually illegal to drag another car in that area and people didn't want to get in trouble. So he stood there for more than an hour waiting and raising his hand when another car passed us by (i remember how he got into the car from time to time with little icicles on his mustache, and i'm not joking). Meanwhile my mom tried to warm me on the backseat, taking everything from the car like clothes and such, she even took off her upper clothes for me because i guess i was freezing to death, since soon i simply passed out. When i woke up i realised that we were saved by a passerby who was not afraid of the consequences and helped us to get to the hotel. I was lying under three blankets while my mom was lying under her clothes by my side, sacrificing herself for me once again. But my dad... Oh lord, that poor man spent the night in a cold garage fixing our car. He haven't slept one minute. When we woke up he was done and we hit the road again eager to get home. To this day, i think about how we could die out there, and how they both saved themselves and me through perseverance, cold (no pun intended) thinking and cooperation. edit: and i can't even imagine how frightened they were. But they freaking did it anyway. I love my parents.

Jeez, this place makes Canada look like a tropical island lol

Here, the refrigerator is used as a microwave.

this girl's sincere answers are pure gold

I’ve been watching Ruhi Çenet since 2017 and feel incredibly happy to see his content finally being loved and known worldwide, as he deserves.

That description of the car breaking down and you only have 30 min to fix it was genuinely terrifying to me.

I am russian and the coldest temperature I had was -33C. I have no idea how -60C or below feels like. Its unbelievable people can live in such conditions for entire life

I was working in the plains of Southern Saskatchewan, Canada, at -55c and the truck had broken down. I lost the tips of my ears, and tip of my nose to frostbite, within minutes. I could only imagine what -70c would feel like. Good to hear that everyone leaving their houses bring extra tools. Could be the difference between life and death, in those temperatures.

I admire the people who live there. They are really strong and well adapted.

I love how YouTube randomly recommends this to everyone in the middle of summer

A traveller sees a resident of Yakutsk eating ice cream outside. -Dude why are you doing that? It’s -50C and you are eating ice cream?! -Ice cream is only -20C. I’m trying to warm myself up

Am in South Africa, Johannesburg. It's 21:21pm.Temperature right now is 11°c, feels like 10°. It's currently the beginning of winter and am in bed with a fleece blanket, a comforter and a sweater on, yet my feet are cold (just got into bed). I can't imagine living in a place like that. It's so satisfying to watch though, in the comfort of my bed. All that's missing is a cup of hot cocoa. Just finished watching the Lut Desert experience and the contrast is insane. Great content. Thanks

I was also in Yakutsk. Your video was very accurate and brought back many fine memories for me. Your video is an excellent depiction of Yakutsk.

”When its too cold it feels like burning.” Scary and fascinating at the same time.

"a banana can be turn into a hammer in minutes" are the words i never thought i would hear in my life

Вспомнил старый анекдот. Якут в Москве покупает холодильник, его продавец спрашивает, зачем он вам, у вас же холодно. На что якут ответил - греться буду в нем зимой😂

This woman you stayed with, her home, her animals, and the forest there are pure magic. Take good care of yourself and your team Ruhi!
