"The only place other than Mastercard HQ that's completely visa-free" lool
Ye that was funny 😄
hahahahahaha you made my year~
you could honestly add the Netherlands
looo...oool
That one caught me off guard 😂
"The only place other than Mastercard HQ that's completely visa-free" is arguably the finest joke ive ever heard
F*** I only got that after typing it into Google
@@coolmonkey619 same here hahaahah
He forgot about Crimea? ))
It's no joke.
Dutch Arctic explorer Willem Barentsz in 1596: "I discovered a previously unknown island in the Arctic zone and gave it the name Spitsbergen. This will be the greatest discovery for European geography"
Also Russians and Vikings on Svalbard in 1194: "First time here?"
Why is it, when somebody thinks erroneously that something is undiscovered, is it always russians and/or vikings that were there first
@@dominichines9996 Arabs and Chinese too, I guess
@@comradekenobi6908 true
@@dominichines9996 Because the vikings were out and about in their boats. Most other nations didn't have the vessels they had. The vikings had a reliable boat that could handle the high waves in the athlantic ocean. Also Norway is a shit territory for farming. Norwegians like exploring new places and are ambitious.
Christopher Columbus thinks he discovers America. Vikings: ''What took you so long?''
I grew up in Longyearbyen. Have visited both the Pyramid (town the Russian had for coal mining, now not inhibited, you wrongly showed some pictures of it), and Barentsburg many times. There's alot of connection between Longyearbyen and Barentsburg. We've often visit each other and have cultural events both in Barentsburg and Longyearbyen ☺️
Thanks for your input. Have you considered making your own video on Svalbard, and/ or specifically the two Russian villages? Your local knowledge could make for an intriguing story and without the errors outsiders tend to make. Give it a thought. Greetings from Denmark.
Some of those photos are from the town Pyramiden the other Russian settlement up there. I feel like you should disclose this better. Visiting Pyramiden is way more interesting as its basically like a visit to Pripyat without the radiation concerns.
Not going to lie this video seemed super brief with very little follow up information and rather than the usual felt half as informative
Joe Harris It’s so you watch the podcast
@@cottoneyedJoe29 One could almost say it was half as interesting.
@@demoniack81 i see what you did there
I'll keep that in mind.
The Sass increased by 100% in This episode.
Sincerely Eccentric I thought so too 😂
@Stavros S. I totally agree, some is good, constant sass just gets old.
Yeah, made me unsub.
Exactly!!! I subbed to this channel because the vids are actually informative and interesting, I didn't click this video to hear 5 jokes per sentence.
Hey dude, i`m from Norway, and i know that every transactions in Svalbard has to be done with norwegian money. Meaning that also Barentsburg has to use norwegian money just like the others who live in Norway. They are not alowed to use russian money..
Credit cards exist, so you can technically pay for anything in Norway with whatever currency you have
@@Osteloff Well, yes and no. The currency on your card is converted to NOK when you make the transaction, for which there is a conversion fee that the customer will have to pay and is deduct by your bank. So, you do pay with Norwegian currency regardless of what's on your card.
Sources: I'm a Norwegian store owner and extremely fun at parties.
@@rorschacht8478 that's literally the point of the joke I was making
@@Osteloff Sounds like you DO need a Visa then lol

"...discovered in the late 1600s..." also: "Russians were there from 1425..."
rnburton57 1550-1599 would be 16th century but for some odd reason i still not know why Russians there from 1425...
Or maybe you should have listened when he told you they were potentially there from that early
The vikings found it long ago, the name comes from old norse meaning cold shorse.
Discovered doesn't mean found. It means claimed.
@@goodlovely8513 Yeah... I thinked about that The whole day 😂

@@nilNell This video had more jokes.
Basically creates own sponsor to sponsor self
You're mixing up two different Russian cities in Svalbard: Barentsburg and Pyramiden. The last one is (almost) abandoned.
Yes, Pyramiden is not inhabited, it's just for tourism. He's mixing them.
Yeah, I loved the part where he shows pictures of Pyramiden and A MAP WITH PYRAMIDEN WRITTEN ON IT
Ahhhh thats a lie. I mean he said his videos are 100% accurate ain't i right?
@@AltF4GamesClips hahahahaha
No, he's talking about Barentsburg. Pyramiden is completely abandoned. Barentsburg still has about 400 people living there. Like he said.
This video: *exsist*
Bald and bankrupt:
"Hold my soviet camera"
Bald came to mind as soon as I saw the thumbnail :d
Same for me... I wonder if he ever heard of the place?
Id go there for a bit of Russian practice but it seems not particularly cheap (£150 a night for the hotel?) And since there's only a small population hard to make any contacts there before going.
*hai runs out of sponsors so he makes himself own sponsor*
hai: yes this is big brain time
Awesam 114 next he is going to bring in planes for a sponsor

Me reading title:
He’s talking about Svalbard
Me watching video:
He’s talking about svalbard
Thomas why second one is with small s
I didnt know he was talking about Svalbard specifically but i figured he was either talking about a fishing village on a Norwegian island near Russia, a mining town leased to Russia, or a research station set up by Russia in the Norwegian Arctic since Russia did a little of all three but i figured the first two would be at least partially Norwegian whereas a research station would likely be a classified area and thus all Russian.
@@mobilecyclop7329 lmao *SmallBard*
My exact thoughts
@@mobilecyclop7329 because

My family came from Russian and Norwegian sailors. My grandfather actually remembers his father and grandfather could speak in Russian, Norwegian and Russenorsk (which is a language formed from amalgamation of the Russian and Norwegian languages do to trade and intermarriage which existed since the 16th century). Due to the Revolution in Russia my family got split up, some chose to stay in Norway others in Russia and they fully assimilated in the country they stayed in. in. The revolution killed the Russenorsk language as well because the liberal trade between the Russians and Norwegians was banned by Soviets.

Response: 'It's warm outside.'
How about this? I copy pasted it it was a standalone comment and no *_I FUCKING LOVE SCIENCE_* Netizens has yet to say jack shit about it.
*LOL MAYBE IF YOU STOPPED LISTENING TO 14 YEAR OLDS AND NON CLIMATE SCIENTISTS FOR YOUR FACTOIDS YOU'D BE MORE RESPECTED!* I'm not a climate change denier, yes the climate changes, im more of a "Fuck your bullshit ass narrative of westerners have to eat bugs so that india can have 2 billion indians but we ought to just stop having kids cuz apparently american kids are worse for the environmental than others."

The town will also struggle to stay afloat as the Arctic ice melts
Actually, svalbard is a rocky island so it cant melt unlike glaciers
@@MuhammadAhmed-tk9sj Clearly that just means it would require more heat to melt... Anyways, even if the archepelago is rocky, if sea levels continue to rise as the ice melts elsewhere, the shoreline will recede.

I love Extremeties. I was actually wondering if you were gonna advertise it again for season two!
Edit: the best response to a climate change denier is "You're absolutely right. Why should we make the atmosphere clearer and the world filled with less rubbish. It doesn't heat the Earth up so doing those things is useless!"

@@bobobake1232 what's your model?
Do you have a P value for that?
Is your claim replicable?
How about those Koch brothers funded researchers who found positive evidence for anthropomorphic climate change?
@@bobobake1232 shut up boomer
@@timmtheilig6827 Stop pretending like you care who the source is. There are plenty of well known scientist, such as Dr. Mototaka Nakamura, who refute the climate agenda yet you conveniently ignore them because they represent an inconvenient truth. Science also isn't a democracy so the fact that skeptics are fewer in number is completely irrelevant.
We just barely came from the little Ice Age 150 years ago, of course the Earth is warming up. The Little Ice Age lasted like 300 years. Climate Change is cyclical and we are just in another Warm Period. The Medieval Warm period was before the Little Ice Age and also lasted hundreds of years. We will be fine despite the doomsayers. However pollution is still bad I agree we should stop that.
Hai: doesn’t get a sponsor
Also Hai: sponsors himself to have that classic segue.
i took som business classes years ago on opening and running your own business. Most of the class were serious business owners but a few of them were hopeless dreamers that didn't know what they were doing, and that joke reminded me of them. Some of them claimed "we dont have any investors/advertisers so that leaves an opening for you!" and they tried to get people to either give them free advertising or invest in them, their main "incentive" being that because no one else had yet that would leave the investor an opening to get in on the ground floor.

Extremities is great. It was fun to see pics to go with the audio.
Sorry to tell you you are mixing two diffrent towns on Svaldbard, Barentsburg is still inhabited and it's mine in use, Pyramiden, named after the Pyramid shaped mountain it's next to, which you refferred to as Bartentsburg with pictures of Pyramiden, is abanndoned. Pyramiden is the one that was the Soviet example town. There are also far more Ukranians than Russians in Barentsburg
Cool facts, Pyramiden was originally a swedish town. Founded by Sweden in 1910 and sold to the Soviet Union in 1927.

Why is this the first i have ever heard of this, as a norvegian i feel like i should have learned about this in school
I'm Norwegian too, and this is well-known info to most Norwegians. Can't remember whether I learned about it in school, but Barentsburg and Pyramiden are often mentioned in various newsmedia in addition to Longyearbyen (the main Norwegian town).
@Preben Alexander Andreassen So the rest of the world can understand the trivial dispute. ;)
never heard of it either
Jeg har heller ikke hørt om det.
@@larshallstrmeriksen468 I think he meant that he's never heard about the fact that Svalbard is visa-free and that there is a Russian town there, I had no idea. I think most Norwegians know about the land itself.
The Time Team reference made my day. So glad it's on Amazon Prime in the US now.
Knew all the information already (as I've been there), listened to the podcast anyway, and have now watched this video anyway. No regrets.
"Russian people who speak, you guessed it, spanish" I'M CACKLING
You messed up again! There were two Russian towns. One called Barentsburg, other called Pyramid. And Pyramid was the Soviet paradise with swimming pool and cinema, but there was hardly anything from that in Barentsburg
The other (Pyramiden, not Pyramid) was also a showpiece for the Soviet Union but no longer exists, at least as a functioning, normal town, which is why this video focuses on Barentsburg.
But yeah, to be fair, looks like the editor did mess up and use Pyramiden's photos in that section which I didn't catch. Both towns still did exist as showpieces, though.
@@halfasinteresting you know that Norwegian royal family visited Pyramiden a few years ago, when it was already uninhabited. They even played football in old Soviet gym

When we went on that trip, the company wanted us sign a contract to not use drugs or drink alcohol during the trip...guess what my uncle did?! He orderd beer before the trip, we drank vodka and beer in a Hotel in Barentsburg and continued our journey to a place I can recall the name...it was a full day trip with a snowmobile! Best time to go is April, because you have snow, it's cold...but for a short time there is day and night in Svalbard!

In Russia we call theese isles “Spitsbergen”.
And in English as well. Apparently its name was changed to Svalbard in 1925, but at school we were told to call it Spitzbergen ( which has just tripped off nicely in predictive text on my English language phone!)
The largest island is still called 'Spitsbergen' in Norway.

Svalbard is the archipelago, and Spitsbergen is the largest island.

I don't deny climate change exists. It changes all the time, and has ever since Earth developed an atmosphere. I just deny that it's a significant problem that requires drastic action to address in order to avoid some kind of imminent catastrophe. The Earth through most of its natural history was significantly warmer than it is now, and life got by just fine. (From the point of the biosphere, it got by BETTER. There were arboreal forests in Antarctica in the Jurassic and Cretaceous, and it was just as far south then as it is now.) We'd have to make adjustments sure, but it is far from a doomday scenario as many are trying to preach that it is.
