I remember the old days 1960s growing up in Wales. We had no gas, electric or running water. Dad would hunt and fish for food. Mum picked berries and nuts in the hedge rows. Our 1 bedroom country cottage was surrounded by fruit trees. We carried water to the house or washed everything in the nearby stream. But I don't ever remember it being cold. There was 7 of us altogether (me and my 3 brother and 1 sister) with mam and dad. Still have some old photos. Those days seemed in a strange sort of way easier somehow. Though must have been rather difficult for mum and dad. But we did alright.

I have no experience living that way...I grew up in the city in the 70s-80s. But, I think we spent soooooo long living like that, and we're much more suited for it. I see this and as hard as it looks, it seems like family and simplicity was everything. Seems like life has more meaning. Now, life is about consumption and showing off.

If you die tonight, do you know where you're going? Did you know that Jesus Christ is THE Truth, the life and the only way to Heaven? Revelation 20:15 ''Anyone whose name was not found written in the book of life was thrown into the lake of fire.'' Through Jesus Christ, God offers you a FREE gift - forgiveness. All you need to do is repent, turn away from your sins and evil ways, from now on put your faith completely in Jesus Christ and be obedient to Him. Biblical explanation of the Gospel: God doesn’t want anybody in hell, but you must understand why we deserve hell and why those who refuse to live under His authority will go there. He gave us the law (Ten Commandments) not to make us righteous, but rather to show us our sin (Romans 3:20). God gave us free will and since Adam sinned in the garden, sin is the nature of our flesh and we ALL have sinned. (Romans 3:23) The law demands death to those who sin (Romans 6:23). Since we have all sinned, we all deserve hell. Revelation 21:8 says that all liars will go to hell. Yes, even if you have lied once in your life, you are sentenced to hell - that's how high God's standards are of moral perfection because God is holy and righteous, there is not one sin in Him. For someone to be justified before holy God they have to be sinless, that's why everyone need Jesus Christ - for He lived a sinless life, died on the cross and rose from the dead on the third day. None of us are good in God’s eyes, because for God good means moral perfection. We all have broken God’s commandments, we all have sinned in our lives so none of us are good. ‘’For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles at just one point is guilty of breaking all of it.’’ (James 2:10). Our carnal mind is hostile to God; it does not submit to God's moral law and it never will (Romans 8:7). We hate the thought of God for the same reason a criminal hates a policeman - we know we have sinned against God and are guilty of it and we don't want to be damned. No good works will ever save you. You can't earn salvation by good works, because God will judge us for our sin. Good News is that Jesus Christ lived a perfect, holy, sinless life and He died for our sins according to the Scriptures, He was buried and He was raised from the dead on the third day according to the Scriptures (1 Corinthians 15:3-4) For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.’’ (John 3:16) We aren’t saved by our good works, but only by the grace of God through faith in Christ. ''For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith - and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God - not by works, so that no one can boast. (Ephesians 2:8-9) Jesus said ‘’it is finished’’ (John 19:30) just before He died on the cross, which means He paid the fine for our sins (past, present, future) to be forgiven only IF we repent and trust in Him. This is how you can get saved from sin and hell - repent of your sins and trust in Jesus Christ. Get to know Him by reading God's Word. So if you sinful people know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him.” (Luke 11:13) ''What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? Certainly not!'' (Romans 6:15) ''Repent therefore and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out'' (Acts 3:19) Repentance is a turning away from sin and all evil works, and it always results in changed behavior (Luke 3:8). Biblically, a person who repents does not continue willfully in sin. While sorrow from sin is not equivalent to repentance, it is certainly an element of scriptural repentance (2 Corinthians 7:10). Do not play a hypocrite. ''God is light; in Him there is no darkness at all. If we claim to have fellowship with Him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live out the truth.'' (1 John 1:5-6) (John 3:3) Jesus replied, "Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again." If you have repented and have genuine faith in Jesus Christ then you will receive the gift of Holy Spirit and be born-again spiritually. When you believed, you were marked in Him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God’s possession - to the praise of His glory. (Ephesians 1:13-14) Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him. (John 3:36) ''You will know them by their fruits'' (Matthew 7) If you have been truly born-again with the Holy Spirit and He has regenerated your heart, you will desire righteousnes - to do what is good and righteous in God's eyes, to seek God everyday in His Word and prayer, to strengthen your relationship with God. You will no longer desire to willfully continue living in sin but will want to obey God out of your love for Him because of His amazing grace revealed to us through the death and resurrection of His Son. ''Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.'' (2 Corinthians 5:17) ''For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.'' (Eph 2:10) You will have a testimony - of what your life had been before and how has it changed now when you have surrendered it to Lord Jesus Christ. As a declaration and affirmation of your faith in Jesus Christ, get baptised in water because He commanded us to do so. In John 3:5 Jesus answered, “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit.'' ''Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit'' (Matthew 28:19) ''Those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand were added to their number that day.'' (Acts 2:41) ''And this water symbolizes the baptism that now saves you also - not the removal of dirt from the body, but the pledge of a clear conscience toward God - through the resurrection of Jesus Christ,'' (1 Peter 3:21) ''We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.'' (Romans 6:4) ''Having been buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through your faith in the working of God, who raised him from the dead.'' (Colossians 2:12) Please get right with God and get to know Jesus Christ personally today before it’s too late, because there’s not much time left! "But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.’’ (Mark 13:32) Get to know Christ through God's Word - Bible. At first I recommend reading Gospel of John and book of Romans. God bless you! Jeremiah 29:13 - ''You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.''

Can't see this without thinking how bizarre it is that in humanity's spread across the face of the globe that people drifted to such harsh environments and created cultures based around them. This looks so harsh to our eyes, but it's nowhere near as harsh as it must have been before the innovations introduced by European settlement... the trading post has many items that aren't part of traditional Inuit life and their dress under the fur clothing is modern printed textiles, which also wouldn't have been available. Fascinating film of a time when things were rapidly changing for these people.

Such a great admiration to the father, who hunts food to feed his family. A father who teaches his son passing on skills for survival I am sure the son would be a good father as well to his future family. That's the way of life, taking care of each other. The mother and daughter as well, teaches her about household chores and sewing. What a simple way of life, and family is love.

She said her family left Wales because of a dispute with another village family as to which family would run the supply store. (I hope I remember these facts correctly.) I met her at the Methodist Church there in Nome. Another Lady told me she came from St Lawrence and was the daughter of the Chief. I asked her if she was a princess. She smiled and said yes she was. I met her at the Senior Center. Another beautiful lady I met there in Nome told a funny story on herself. When she moved to Nome from an Island, she had never eaten Ice Cream. Her first time to eat an ice cream cone, she ate the ice cream and threw away the cone. She said wasn't that funny? We didn't know any better. We had never seen an ice cream cone. I love Nome AK. I love eating with these older first Americans and hearing their stories. I will go back again this summer for my 7th summer. Again I hope I have my facts correct about their stories. These older Americans are all we have left. Listen to their stories.

@@davidmayers4015 So you think the lifestyle they led was one they freely chose and not a result of an accident of birth, that they grew up there and that was what they had to do to survive, or die?

Wow, I intentionally watched this for background noise but had no idea I'd learn so much! It's so interesting how they fish and how the kayaks were made using seal bones and skin. Makes me think, when I go to a sporting goods store, enough things in their are similar to what an eskimo would use. It's just interesting how so many people adapted to their environment and ended up with similar designs that just worked.

I really admire how content these people seem with their lives despite being in some of the worst conditions on the planet. It's because they all have purpose, everyone has a job, and a responsibility to do that job, otherwise everyone gets shit. Society in developed countries is vastly different, we spend each day wondering what our purpose is, browsing the internet and watching documentaries to pass the time. Look how this father and son go out, risking their lives to bring some food home because they need to feed their family. Nowadays people are so bored with themselves that they'd call that discrimination against woman. All organisms in essence were created over millions of years with the soul purpose of surviving, adapting, evolving. But now we're 8 billion people and we're beyond worrying about the cold. As much as it's stupid to say (because I'd be dead in 2 weeks if I lived in the wilderness), humans were not meant to thrive, they were meant to struggle for eternity like every other organism. The will to SURVIVE is void now, and the only thing that is left is this feeling of nihilism. Because we've already beat nature, we're already at the top of the food chain, and living is pretty meaningless when those two things are conquered...

They are content because that's what they know. A lot of people can't fathom temperatures in the 100's. The world is a big place. Up around Point Hope, AK they usually don't see temps above 60 and never above 70 in the summer. The summer months are usually in the high 40's. The winter months can drop well below -60 and even lower with the wind chill factor. I've heard stories of under 100 below zero on a windy day. I lived in AK for 7 years and can't wait to move back someday.

​@gedel Njie That's right, and black people are designed to live in conditions with high sun exposure. Inuits are well adopted to the place they live in. Who knows how many centuries they have been trialed for only fittest to survive in these lands. Same with black people where they had to be the fastest and strongest in order to survive in their conditions. I still remember my visit to Tanzania, especially stories people who ran from living in a traditional way told me. To be a man/hunter there, you need to survive alone for 3 months in wild and most don't ever come back. That's some tough sh** to prove you are going to be a valuable part of community.

Apparently, our core body temperature used to be a little lower than average. Pretty sure other peeps who lived in the cold had the same effect.

Really good video put together before more intervention. I would love to have seen how the natives survived those winters before the dogs, gasoline, guns, stoves, lanterns, and trading stores. How did they socialize in winter before there were school buildings? That was interesting about no trees and finding driftwood in sea/ocean. They talked about not seeing other people often. I would think members of village (relatives) everyone would see each other often to help each other. These days those villages are so much more modernized. How did they eat raw fish without getting parasites?

They've always had dogs! Huskies and Malamutes are originally from the Arctic. They've always had oil (whale, seal, fish) to light their own versions of lanterns. It's not always frozen, during the spring and summer, they migrate to warmer climates, where trees and vegetation are, to meet up with their peoples for community and the propagation of their species. To truly see the Inuit way of life as it applies to the modern era, watch documentaries of the Siberian Natives and their traditional lifestyles. They live more in-tune with Native customs than North American Natives. Besides, most Natives of North America, originated from Siberia.

I just gotta say,,,this is an interesting life and it seems they'd never be bored, i know it's a difficult life but also a beautiful one, imagine how happy they are when its summer and the sun starts to shine. Am I the only one who wants to live in this type of way? Not anywhere specific but somewhere in nature.
