How to Get Drinking Water in Yakutia 🧊

Just like a desert, drinking water in a Yakut village is precious. I really like taste of ice water and it’s much better than the taste of tap water. Normally we don’t drink water from the tap, in the city it taste like chlorine. In this video, I will show you the process of ice harvesting 🧊

That cup of tea is definitely well deserved

For those curious how the ice is so clear, it's actually the same principle at work as when they make clear ice for bars. The impurities in water sink lower the colder it gets. This is what causes those white blotches in ice. When they water on top is just frozen, it's pure water and thus clear, while the water underneath has all the impurities in it. Clear ice actually takes longer to melt and has a much cleaner taste.

I really cannot imagine how to live in such a cold area. Where I live, Austria, there are also cold winters, but rarely colder than -15 degrees Celsius. And there is always water from the tap!

Frozen is based in Scandinavian countries, this reminds me of that ice harvesting scenes. Amazing how different culture learned to adapt from their environments.

Sven and Kristoff must be able to help!!!
But jokes aside..
Just to know it ain't easy to be able to enjoy a cup of water just like that, makes me want to thank God for every blessing. All your videos are so humbling and very educational. Thank you so much.

Nice one, never imagined of it... only seen it in the very first scene from FROZEN.... Thx for sharing!

[SimplyDomRBLX]

It’s so interesting how the human body can adapt to any climate! Now this makes me wanna melt some ice now haha! ;)

[JNLDyxce]

I am in sunny 🌞 Jamaica 🇯🇲 watching you in a country freezer 🧊

Chainsaw uses oil to lubricate, so first on my mind was tiny droplets of oil that you could drink with water from melted cube.

I love this channel, so many great things to learn. Thank you for making these videos.

My area is having -6 to -10 degrees Celsius (20F--12F) weather right now, and it is considered very low for the area. Everything shuts down, schools, businesses. Everyone stays home here when the roads are iced over. So it is so interesting to see how people continue on with life where harsh cold is the norm for most of the year. We could learn some lessons from you all. As our climate changes and the poles shift, we will have to learn ways to adapt to other kinds of weather.

Right now it's 23°C in Lusaka, Zambia.
Me: Cold, covered in blankets
Yakutian: Ha give me that summer
😄Thank you for these videos. I'm really learn a lot about the other side of the world

[zeezoutchips]

Fascinating. I instantly think of the disney movie ‘frozen’ when i see this. Your reality is in most of the world a fairytale.

I love watching the Yakutian lifestyle!
