the harshest thing about northern Greenland isn't its winters (that are significantly milder than those of Siberia in fact) but it's extremely cool summers. average summer temperatures are somewhere around 0 degrees. that's why there's virtually no plant life in northern Greenland. Siberia is very green and lush because the summers get 30+ degrees on a regular basis.
Speaking about Siberia, what's always overlooked is that temperatures are not everything. It could be -50 in the central Syberia but it's VERY dry and shielded from winds. While on Chukchi peninsula, insane winds and humidity make the "mere" -20 unbearable. That's why Central Syberia boasts with civilisation, and Chukotka has hardly any residents. Also, it's Chukotka, not the "-50 areas", that is considered the harshest place in Russia itself. So speaking about inhospitable Syberia, it's more correct to mention Chukotka, not -50. Because Chukotka doesn't have -50 but still, it's one of the harshest places where ppl permanently live. So harsh that ppl barely know about its existence, which is proven by many videos like this one. Even the opposite Alaska is a bit better, by the way.
I love these types of videos where you covered tempratures. Climates, also ur previous videos. Keep making them ❤. Also bandar-e mashahr in Iran deserves an honourable mention as in Summers it's the only place to witness 40+°C and high humidity making its heat index in 50s all the time!
Is it weird that I’ve always wanted to travel to Norrhern Greenland/Greenland in general? Most people I know call me crazy and shit I probably am. But the thought of setting foot where very few humans have before and seeing sights that very few human eyes have seen is so enchanting to me. Would just have to go very well prepared and make sure I don’t become polar bear food.
As Iranian, mentioning Lut desert made me happy because always when is speaking about very hot desert people think about death valley 🇺🇲 while Lut is almost as hot as there (if not hotter)
I suppose the list can be summarised as "Where is it too hot, cold or dry to be able to live?" The extreme rainfalls due to the monsoon does not prevent people from making a living. However, there could be a few another cathegories not mentioned: Where the volcanic activity is so high that it is unsafe to try to live there, e.g. internal Iceland, and very mountainous islands with no harbour, like most of the Pitcairn Islands.
Its why i think Mars and Moon colonies can only fail over time . Its not like we practice here on Earth , we avoid hostile places where at all possible . Everyone staying ,at say the Antarctic research stations ,say its awful .
The Danakil Depression in Ethiopia looks like Mammoth Hot Springs in Yellowstone on steroids. Mammoth is one of the coolest things I've ever seen. Danakil looks more amazing. Maybe I'll go in the next life.
You use celsius but why the weird inch? When I heard 476 inches of rain it took a while to convert to a human scale. How many feet is it? How many yards or meters? Something like 12,000 mm is the accepted measurement 😏. Then people can think 12 meters.
@@Iamtheliquor So there are more countries that are not 100% in metric system. I thought US, Liberia and some other obscure country were the only 3 left.
@@chefnyc Myanmar, Liberia and the US are fully imperial. The UK uses Imperial for speed limits, road distances, bridge heights, pints for milk and beer, a person’s height and weight most people use imperial. Food is weighed in KG, petrol is sold in litres and temperatures are in Celsius. It’s a mixed bag over here
@@Iamtheliquor Myanmar is NOT imperial. They're not metric, but they're also not imperial. They use their own system, although a lot of people also use the metric system
I think Earth should be on the list. I'm from Kepler 22-b and I've heard of how inhospitable Earth is, especially because it's getting hotter and hotter or something Idk about the details for that
Nobody talks about it, but I hate the 1080p premium. Why can't u youtubers upload 4K+ resolution, instead of adding annoying stuff to pay for? Just hate it.
They’re not the ones who had the video quality that’s a TH-cam doing it it doesn’t matter what they recorded in all that matters is what TH-cam shows the quality as
It's like fingers and thumbs. All humans are animals but no animals are human or humans. So making that distinction feels okay to me, but it's not my language so don't listen to me😅
The Danakil depression is 200,000 km squared? Hardly! Thats about 80 times greater than the surface area of the Earth. Please learn the difference. A kilometre squared is a completely different unit to a square kilometre, except for 1 of each.
I've never heard anybody make that difference and most people I know in physics and construction and data analysis use them interchangeably. There's no need to be so toxically pedantic. You try to keep pointing it out in the comments but it is a distinction you seem to have made up and care too much about. Go outside and touch some grass and look after yourself.
Recommendation: Please provide temperatures in Fahrenheit, also. Conversion from Celsius takes two steps versus just one step for all other measurements.
God I really wish this guy would give american measurements along with metric ones. "Temperatures can reach 50 degrees celsius" Me: Ok so that's 50*9/5 +32...😵💫

I'd love to see a part 2 for most inhospitable places on Earth e.g. Svalbard, Alaska, Australian Outback, The Himalayas, Kalahari Desert etc.
La Rinconada, Peru
chukchi peninsula is much more inhospitable than alaska. just look at the permafrost map to see it with your own eyes.
Look at Edimburg of the seven seas
@@erynn9968 not to mention the political inhospitality
alaska is a tropical paradise

There are no permanent settlements in the mountains where elevation is more than 5000 meters. Himalayas, Andes etc. that covers a huge land area.
Maybe not in the Himalayas but I know "la rinconada" in Peru which is a town over 5k meters above sea level
One could argue that the Everest base camps are becoming permanent settlements....
6:28 oh that doesn’t sound so bad. That’s room temperature. Wait…did you say CELSIUS?
The Skeleton Coast Park in Namibia is also one of the most inhospitable place on Earth, it think so

Svalbard and most of northern Canada should be in there.

iran > US
When I hear "hot desert" I think of the big one, the Boss Level of Deserts, Sahara!
But I'll try to keep Lut in my mind:)
@@YeeSoest ok :)
There's also Bandar e mashahr in Iran
As an American, I want to mentions that Iran will soon be a smoking crater in the ground. You mess with Murica, you get nuked
Love these kinds of videos 😍
great educational work
How about Rub Alkhali the biggest desert in Arabian peninsula and one of the largest sand desert in the world.
Where's North Korea?
Or Gelsenkirchen 😅
@@YeeSoest I searched it up and I don’t see anything wrong with it
Between China and South Korea
Touché
It is on the Korean penninsula
4:27 'kwanaak'. The pronunciation is closer to 'kanaak', but instead of 'k' it's pronounced with two 'ق' like in Arabic.
konak?
You were so close to being helpful😅
Cognac
You could also include the Rub al-Khali, the empty quarter in Saudi Arabia.

Why list measurements in imperial units, why why whyyyyyyyyyyy
Very interesting. Might I suggest one you missed. The "Tenderloin" downtown San Francisco.
You forgot to mention the extreme darkness regardung the Arctic, which is even worse than the cold...
My favorite inhospitable place is Bouvet Island. Something about the emptiness and cliffs lowkey scare me
La Rinconada in Peru, the highest town in the world. Absolute hellhole, only exists because you can dig for gold there...
Its why i think Mars and Moon colonies can only fail over time . Its not like we practice here on Earth , we avoid hostile places where at all possible . Everyone staying ,at say the Antarctic research stations ,say its awful .
Cameron Corner, Queensland 4492, AUSTRALIA (In the 2016 census, Cameron Corner had a population of 5 people.)

It’s a British person I think
Us Brits use a mixture of both. Celsius for temperature. MPH for speed limits. Feet and Inches for height. Litres for petrol

Add the highest altitude town in Peru
Death Valley, California!
rub al-khali desert or empty quarter in southern saudi arabia and northern oman deserves a mention.
Tibet
Yeah but have you ever been to Detroit?
Greenland is around 2mil square km, not 1,4.
I thought he meant the ice shelf only
You forgot to include Milwaukee on that list LolOlOOlOLoLOLOLlOlloLOlOLOloLlllOOllOL
Interesting but really needs a good editor.
I haven’t learned so much in yuuueeers 😂
On the next episode for the most inhospitable place on earth...Los Angeles
Are these videos getting quieter?
Bad news. No😅
Where are you from? You have an interesting accent. I'd really like to know.
He’s British
Camera tilted at the start!

Please have measurements also in the English system, not all metric, so we can get a better idea of what you are talking about.
I cant even imagine living in a desert . What do people farm ?
They don't. Hence the nomadic existence of traditional desert dwellers.
My house is quite inhospitable. I don’t want to live here
NWT has got kinda the same peoplelessness going on
00:15 Humans and animals?
Humans are just one species of animal, but there are millions of other species of animals.
🤓
It's like fingers and thumbs. All humans are animals but no animals are human or humans. So making that distinction feels okay to me, but it's not my language so don't listen to me😅
Yeah, think again when you say "we inhabit all continents" when nobody wants to live in antarctica permanently.
anyone ever tell you that you sound like a Canadian?
Judging by his accent he’s from NE England
How come Florida wasn't mentioned?????
What is your source for this 70c claim as the hottest recorded temperature by humans on earth is in the 50s.
Within 2 hours!

It would be more valuable if you include how these populations adapted. Like 2:57 people use condensers to catch water from mist

I wonder if it's one of the hottest places on the Earth ??????????
i dunno about hottest but pretty much everywhere in and around the equator may just be the hottest place on Earth.
Yur?
