Yes, street cleaners and related jobs are underpaid in all Russia, not only in Yakutia. Even our life cost is lower than at Europe or USA, that salary of $400 per month is very low.

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

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.

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.

Russians never complain. They suffer in silence. They don't even dare to oppose their authorities sending troops to commit acts of aggression against a neighboring country.

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.

10:38 Rofl... "Yeah, if it's really dangerously cold outside, we can get to work 1 hour less that day" 😅

Like second person who got interviewed, I'm a building contractor in a so tropical country. I think that working there (Yakutsk) is so challenging in many factors. For instance, electrical conductivity will decline by decreasing of temperature, which possibly costs a big threat of welding work or any works supported by electricity. Not to mention the limitation of their sight and movement. All of them who worked there are really tough & persistent people!!

Witaj Kochana przepiękny kraj cudownych dobrych wspaniałych dzielnych ludzi dziękuję za twoją pracę życzę wam wszystkiego co najlepsze jesteście cudowni ❤️💐🍰☕🤗👍👏

watching this makes me more grateful for what I have now. Yakutsk is absolutely beautiful fairy tale like city, but watching this made me realize that these people live 2 or 3 times harder than me living in a big city in a tropical country. big respect to their hard work

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

They are our Saviours!!, they put their lives on the line every day, especially during the 2022 wildlife that destroyed a lot of land and came close to my parent's home near our capital.

Greetings from Denmark!

For example, problems with pneumonia, kidney disease, heart disease. Diseases of vision. And at the expense of the fact that the locals are accustomed to the cold - this is not true. Nobody can get used to the cold. We have a hot summer + 40, a very warm autumn, we get used to the heat, and then abruptly - cold! A brutal cold winter is coming! But we remember it, therefore, we are psychologically prepared for it. Only mentally prepared, but still cold, but what to do?" 2. "I still don't understand why it gets so cold there. It’s just that it happens there that at the end of autumn it was still normal, and then it gets sharply cold. And it would be nice if the temperature there dropped to - 15, but it drops to -30 to -50 degrees. It feels like the cold from the upper layers of the atmosphere descends sharply, just at an altitude of 10 km where planes fly just the temperature is 50 degrees. Living in the south of western Siberia, there are also frosts up to -30 to -40, but this is very rare. And you have a freezer there. If you had land there with frosts at least up to -30, it would be better and easier to live."
