Not really, because it's not really that simple is it? Going and buying what you want from the supermarket is simple, which is why this sort of video will get a thousand people praising this way of life and it's lost idyllic romanticism who will then immediately return to their modern, bustling lives without incorporating a thing. This old grandfather is a champion and an inspiration, but it's a hard life, and people living in the past never shape the future.
I would love to be able to afford a plot of land i can live like this. Im glad my grandfather left me with the skills and knowledge how to care for and live off the land
There is so much knowledge, wisdom and skill with what he does, I implore you not to end this video journey here. Not only to preserve the ways of his (and your forebears), but to those generations of struggle ahead where your children and their children's children could learn to sustain themselves and their families living like this.
This is something i am trying to focus on. I am learning the craft of forging and woodworks, i try to take care of our farm and nature, i learn more and more from my father, my grandfathers, mother and grandmothers, they are all so full of skills and much to bring with in the future. I try but its not allways easy. I am deeply addicted by screens but i try, i work to get away from screens which is the biggest addiction of our generation.
Смотрела и рыдала.. Какая же раньше была чудесная жизнь у людей. Да тяжелый труд, но свежий воздух, природа, животные. А сейчас у всех шопинг на уме и пластиковая еда.
@@dakotac9547 don't be fooled by these people. They usually look down to earth & given his type of work & age, probably is a very humble man. Why i say don't be fooled is because i am a banker, & these are the type of folks that come into the bank looking all raggy & depositing some ridiculous sums of $$. The balances on their A/C's always leave me in awe.
Our generation have certainly lost track of life and what it means to live a better life. God bless this man and thank you for allowing me see how your amazing grandfather lives!
All grandfather's videos contain the secret of longevity. God bless from Hungary. This series was great. (my favourite) Thank you 🙏😊 and congratulations!
@@sumindesign9067 На недельку был бы готов? А на целый год? На самом деле это очень тяжолый труд. Если хочется попрбовать- много сельских хуторов Латвий будут рады вашей рабочей силой.
These videos remember me about my grandfathers...they lived a life just as the man in this video. When I was a kid and I go to them I didn’t understood the connection with the Earth, but now as an adult I miss those days. We are all tired of cars, concrete, glass and steel buildings...
This series is the most beautiful thing I have ever watched. Really puts into perspective what’s important in life and how humanity has changed. God bless your family.
I'm only 53 and my back aches watching him work. Not too many people left in this world that are content to live this way and work as hard as this old gentleman. I have great respect for him.
Respect respect respect......may he live to be at least 100 years old....my father passed away last month at 86.....you must cherish every moment you have with your grandfather and let him know how important he is to you and your life.
Beautiful video series,we enjoy this show. We noticed no farm machinery, most modern farmers would cry if they had to do this by hand. where is this located, does anyone know?
@@judithmeadows8826 This is my lovely country- LATVIA. Yes, we have big machineries in countryside, too. But her grandfather is retired and have choose to live own kind of life. He lives and work like her parents have lived.
@@MSkachenite thank you for responding. We admire your grandfather's choice to farm by hand. It is remarkable that he is so strong and fit to accomplish so much demanding farm work. We enjoy your videos and have so much respect for your grandfather. Not many people can do what he is able to do and the farm is lovely.
You can tell about this grandfather life just to look his hands... This is hard work and not a simple life... Maybe some rich people kids need one week work like that to understand how hard life can be in the spring, summer and autumn if they want to eat in the winter...
I d have much, very much respect for this good man who cares about his animals and does a lot of work without complaining to anything God to bless you with health Thank you for sharing ..much respect !! Thank you for sharin
No pigs? I would have thought pigs would turn over the potato field and eat all the little potatoes that one always misses, eat the windfall apples in the orchard, eat the turnip tops etc etc etc and then beautiful bacon and sausage :-) Thank you Jacob and your grandfather for this amazing film. :-)
I just stumbled upon this Grandfather series... And it never hurt me more like today. I just lost my grandfather a week ago and all the similarities in this videos just make me cry. He was also living to work and i just remembered all the things we did together... i miss him :(
👍👌👏 Simply fantastic! Thanks a lot for making recording editing uploading and sharing. Best regards luck and health to all involved life forms (humans, animals and plants).
I love all the videos about the old uncle. He wants the male society to be in such good shape so old. Never stop watching videos. Thank you for uploading Hungary Debrecen Hungary
I truly hope that one day humanity will find inside of itself the will to be like this man once again. Let him be an example of the peace and tranquility we all have lost
Uma vida simples , más com toda felicidades.. Quem mora cidade mesmo com toda mordomia.. Jamais terá,.. A terra , a sombra, vento fresco,brisa incomparável... Aquele ar puro, Obrigado.
May God Bless you and your grandfather for sharing that beautiful life with all the world, as I know it well. Not many people today have seen this or even know about it.
In New Zealand, my ancestors did this except they did it with big families and taught the children too. This is amazing but seems very lonely. looks like enough land and gardens to serve quite a large extended family and so i wonder how much goes to waste. RIP mousey.
If that's the way the world would live. You could still drink from the rivers. I love all the uploaded NORTHMEN videos. All my respect for your work !!!!!!
Noooooo! Please say this is not the end of this documentary series! This is worthy and uplifting content that can heal the world. Thank you for sharing.
Like a small boy with golden hands which grew among the huge experience from this very life He learned what's most important - to talk to nature to land to wind and sky And all thee talk him back He is one of them with great wisdom simply eternally
Most people dont know what true silence is, and wouldn't even appreciate absolute silence. This man has peace and contentment, most people would love to find for 1 day, this man bathes himself in that peace, tranquillity, and contentment as a lifestyle.
2:15 in case anyone who was wondering those are mangelwurzel's, also known as fodder beets,and are usually grown for winter feed for animals. The greens and root are used in feeding.
Looks like y'all are really living the dream. This guy not only lives a simple and fulfilling life, but think about how amazing it must be to be surrounded by beautiful nature, animals, and family. And to have a grandson that cares so much about traditions. These are goals every young man should have, to raise a family that ends up caring as much as people like Jakob.
Makes me fill so much shame about me self and how I live my life. When I watch this series of Northmen I cry inside and hear my ancestors scream at me to change the way I live my life. Big thanks to Northmen and there time and effort of this channel.
I never tire watching him and his family of Northmen. Make some remember my childhood. I also live a modern life with supermarket shopping because it is easy but i once didn't.. I miss that life of really living....
Моя бабушка также работала с утра до вечера. И всегда говорила, что она очень счастлива. Ведь счастье она находила именно в труде, в хозяйстве. Сейчас мы думаем, что счастье только в деньгах.
I hope your Grandfather is still strong and in good health. I used to farm I know how much work is involved. He is committed and determined . A fine example of dedicated work ethic. Beautifully filmed . Thank you .
Thanks to you and your grandfather for allowing you to film. He probably thinks it's just life though. This series brings back so many memories of when I was a child on the farm with my own grandfather plowing with the horses, all of the work by us in our family garden, etc. I'm so grateful to have lived this way until I left home. Not too many people understand how to survive off of a farm. Thank you again and hope to see more of your grandfather. Wishes for continued health & happiness. God bless.
All our Grandparents or Grand-Grandparents lived that way. Perhaps our children or Grandchildren will live that way again. There must be a way to do it with the Beauty of These Videos, without the austerity and need of former times.
Wszystko tak bliskie memu sercu, i niestety w czasie przeszłym. Sceny i widoki zapamiętane z dalekiego dzieciństwa... a jakie owoce i warzywa - wszystko takie urodzajne, prawdziwe, naturalne jak bywało kiedyś. Szacunek człowiekowi pracy. Dziś już nie ma takich ludzi , większość cwaniaki i kombinatorzy!
I love the grandfather videos. The ways of our grandfathers are disappearing as the old timers leave this earth to the next generation. I have so many questions i wish I could ask my grandfather now that I'm grown. But the opportunity is gone now. We should spend more time listening to the wisdom of their generation before they are gone, or well be learning the hard way with no one to guide us in the process.
As an early riser. I just got out of bed and opened TH-cam and this was there just waiting for me. Thank you, been looking g forward to this all summer long!!
Beautiful film he is a good hard worker. What a wonderful man. The farm machinary is to die for. His animals are such friends. How very productive and tidy he is and so talented. I learnt some good tricks. Thank you.
We all forgot how to live simple and meaningful life.

You must be scared of old people, because hey make you work until you die.
@@Fe7Ace you two are speaking of different meanings of "simple"
"all" thats where u wrong

Удивительно, чем старше становлюсь, тем ближе становится родительские интересы. Большое уважение к деду!

This is treasure on youtube!! I want more..
All grandfather's videos contain the secret of longevity. God bless from Hungary. This series was great. (my favourite) Thank you 🙏😊 and congratulations!
Tibi, I respect your country more than any other in Europe, because of your opposition to EU globalists.
I couldnt agree more!
xDody show the filmmaker and grandfather some respect and leave your political comments in a more suitable forum.
Koszonom nagyapam. Is this grandpa in Finland? At least some linguistic relations to Hungarian.
Egyetertek. Sorry rusty hungarian. Love your country
Это самая прекрасная жизнь , дай бог здоровья вам
Это очень , тяжёлый труд , по себе знаю!
Жить в гармонии с природой, а не против нее
Вот если бы пригласили поработать недельку да за плугом или летом сено заготавливать именно туда , я только за!

To know life and know that lasts for eternity and grandfather is always with us is a great blessing. Thank you.
I wish him good health and many more years! Your grandfather is great.
Her grandfather already have gone last autumn at age 74.

Это огромный человеческий труд, этот дедушка большой молодец, что не оставляет знания наших предков.
What a blessing, no tv, phones and looks like he even don’t have electricity. It makes me evaluate things
His children and grandchildren is blessed to have a dad and grandpa like him.
This series is the most beautiful thing I have ever watched. Really puts into perspective what’s important in life and how humanity has changed. God bless your family.

Men like these aren't made anymore.
I stand in awe fore those fine onions. Hat's off!

Craftmanship at its core. Deep respect for hardworking craftsmen like you grandfather.
Grandfather is true man of work and wisdom. Please make more videos with him, this is your best series yet.
Thank you for this.
I enjoyed every season. They were beautifully shot. Wonderfully scored. Just a joy to watch.
Thank you

Another amazing video of Grandfather. I could watch him all day.

Спасибо за видео, смотрю на дедушку и вспоминаю своего, очень похожий быт в деревне. Я как буд то возвратился в детство.
Reminds me of my grandpa... That man could (and did) grow anything. And even at 80 years old he would outwork 20 year olds. He was an awesome man.
A beautiful story of a true man and a season in his life. Cherish him and learn from him while you can.
Noooooo! Please say this is not the end of this documentary series! This is worthy and uplifting content that can heal the world. Thank you for sharing.
Your grandfather is an amazing man! Thanks for sharing.
Like a small boy
with golden hands
which grew
among the huge experience
from this very life
He learned what's most important -
to talk to nature
to land
to wind
and sky
And all thee
talk him back
He is one of them
with great wisdom
simply
eternally
Please keep these videos coming. Your channel is amazing coming from a larger farm this brings memories our farm's humble beginnings.
This man knows so much about farming and living off the hard work that he does.
We should all be so lucky as to be living this life. Be not fooled, this man is a king.
Grandfather always have a special place in the corner of our hearts and a memories last for a lifetime❤️

Wonderful video again Jacob... your grandfather certainly can teach us many a things about living within our means, and living a good life.. :)
By far my favorite series. Love the grandfather videos
You're very lucky to have a grandad like him. Thanks for sharing and Gods bless you and your family.

Kudos to Jacob. A powerful poem indeed!
Thanks Jacob. I hope this series will stay between the upcoming generations and eternity. Priceless
The simple life is a good life indeed. That man could probably work circles around most of today's youth. God bless and take care.
