As ex Amish watching this and other videos from this channel. Makes me wonder what Amish they are talking about? and where they are seeing a large portion of these water systems? I Can’t remember ever needing to share water or having a secret place for gathering it. Although we knew of natural springs all over the area. And they proved useful on occasion. Mostly for livestock or if one would have needed water and it was closer than a normal water supply. I suppose some of these things could be used in an Amish community. But I’ve not ever seen or even heard of most of it. We had a well and filled buckets that’s it for the house. Rain water was only for the garden. Even livestock was watered from a well. we had one in the kitchen and one In the barn. Not every family was as fortunate. And they would have to use a well close to the house or barn not in the actual building. Never filtered anything for any reason. Never had wooden pipes or elevated water delivery systems lol! Most Amish would look at something like that as very unnecessary. Also the Amish would not say city folk they would refer to everyone else as the English. That covers everyone except the Amish. Also it would be difficult for an English person to get close enough for long enough to see and learn all of these things from the Amish. We’d be happy to help the English or conduct business with them. But never would form a close and personal relationship with the English. That’s what I know about it.
Thank you very much for sharing this! It is important, because there are plenty of people, who wanna be, but they ain't. This one probably is one of them. The truth is precious, not someone' s wild imagination. 😮. Folse pretences.
Well, whoever this is, we can learn a lot. I was thinking about becoming Amish, but maybe I should become one of these super-Amish.
I am Almost 70 I know 3-4 and have used some of these for my own safety. I sometimes will talk about things, I am not ARMISH but have lived in outback Australia . The Navatitins sorry can’t spell. Well they diverted water collected every drop. Thank you 🙏🏻
I’m British so have no contact with the Amish people but I love anything to do with construction especially timber work built on tradition. Your comments were really useful as a third viewpoint about what I know of these people. Totally fascinating. Thank you.
Thank you for commenting on this video! Often people dig up old info and even embellish it to make a video!
Thank your to Amish communities that have held to their way of living and allowing us the rest who have lost our way. God bless.
We need this info at this time! ❤ The Amish will save us!
Yahweh Elohim will save us. We need to put our faith in Him, not in man.
Water is the most precious element to all. The roof and gutter system is amazing, never looked at their homes.
Amish people have great idea I grew up with somewhat like that.
Viktor Shauberger knew, water is a living thing
I see that you included a barn raising clip from the movie "Witness". Better yet put in a clip from the music video "Amish Paradise" of a barn side falling on Weird Al Yankovic but not killing him.
😂😂😂
No, that is NOT pine tar (which is black and foul tasting and mildly toxic) that water-proofs wooden gutters. It is a clear sealant such as pine rosin thinned with turpentine (distilled from pine tree sap) or lacquer or epoxy resin or even a flax or cottonseed oil or clarified boiled animal fat based material can be used. The copper gutters you showed first are ideal, if expensive, bc although copper is toxic to mold & algae, it is safe for potable water for humans and animals, which is why copper pipes used to be standard for water supply in houses.
Enjoyed this Video Thank you !
The photo are not of Amish stuff, he doesn't talk about cisterna, pix of copper gutters, ignores slate roofs....
Brilliant ... We do have a lot to learn from them...... I don't buy the cult like concept or lack of technology....
But they do know things.
Excellent
Great video !!
I remember all america being like this as far as communities
It's so true!

My question to any Amish afficiando .... what do the Amish do to purify that water from air pollution , metals, etc that are swirling around?
A good spring will have salamanders because they only live in clean water
So, how did they store their water?
This is not the truth,, most farms have wells, with all the water they need! Rain water is soft water, which is good and used for washing cloths!
Misinformation
Can I wait forever til you get to the point of the video?
Good video learned a lot although the comment below says diff, the reality lol
Rubbish. 9:04 Definition of a "cistern" - _a tank for storing water._ Or... a reservoir - like so many non-Amish water catchment systems use.
Bullhockey, they have wells!
That is living in lack we are better than that
🤔... metal roofs?... mmm. I wouldn't believe the processes involved in producing a metal roof material product would be acceptable in Amish community.
After nearly 3min of introductory 'waffle' (Kiwi for speaking nonsense), I stopped and read the first quote from an ex-Amish person. They confirmed my suspicions! I was hoping to really learn something authentic! Is your whole channel full of 'Bloatware' like this video? Thumbs down! If I find any of your other videos like this I will unsubscribe!
I unsubscribe now!
You said it right. We don't need this!
😂so did I ,and not bother to watch after 4mins,and reading 1st comment
Cisterns have always been common in Southern Indiana, and I'd be surprised if the Amish here didn't use them too. My sister's barn is connected to a 100-year-old cistern that is still in use, complete with a huge and very old goldfish to keep it clean. These things are very regional.
Rigth but not... it's just in the name but they use tanks. I don't use a premade cookie cutter to make cookies, I use a knife to cut shapes but while I'm doing that my knife functions as a cookie cutter...
It's not the stick that finds water, but the Word of God or Jesus Who is Power, and aligns man to find what He has created for His good. So, as it was with Moses and the rod, it was The Rod or God Who parted the waters, not the natural rod.
Let's give God the Glory.
11:25 ain't no Amish guy! What is this shit?
Ummm….these are a type of tank.
Gosh click click
Nothing said.
Automated lawn irrigation should be illegal everywhere in the USA; it's always a sign of over-indulgent and foolishly proud.
Elderly use sprinklers not just indulgent. You can change times n days you water.
Even without their religious beliefs, they should be copied in the care they take with the gifts God gives us, which is totally different to the wasteful western lifestyle.
Sure they have some great practices, but are often terrible to their work horses and donkeys.
cool title...BS video
Will you start by not building subdivisions that will have nobody living in it nobody can afford it when you not have the job to take care of it and you can’t rely on government to give it to you because they’re broke. They’ve been spending so much money for years it’ll be a while before anybody gets anything
Generation these days you only know Walmart😂
