@@SoundChristianMusic This may sound ridiculous, (and i would never doubt this man), but around 50-60 years ago people used to do everything themselves. Who at that time would ever consider (or afford) to employ someone to decorate their home, tend their garden, fix a roof leak, repair a fence etc. Latter generations are just too idle & unimaginative to consider that anything is possible. As someone earlier has stated, utube is now so informative. If one is not particularly 'gifted', the 'tube' is a good starting point. Nothing is impossible.

@@barrywainwright3391 I felt the same way inclined when he revealed not only his power setup involving a friggen forklift battery, but his own custom made greenhouse AND Sawmill. This is the display of someone especially skilled and passionate about their living habits. It's a shame this guy lives on the other side of the world, cause I'd love to volunteer just to gain an inkling of insight into his prowess.

I remember watching you building your home and the hard times that came your way. I believe that there was a period when you stopped making footage; I was more than pleased that you had returned to soldier on. And, wow! Haven't you been 'busting a gut'! I love it! And who wouldn't? An incredibly impressive and fascinating plan in progress to reach the almost mystical 'fully self-sufficient home' ideal. Fantastic!

Watching this, I’m just flabbergasted at not only how much you’ve done in 5 years, but how well you’ve done it! It makes me tired just thinking of it. And also, ashamed of how little I’ve accomplished in the same amount of time. You truly are an inspiration, and I never say that lightly. Bravo!!!🐝🤗❤️

@@jaredkinneyjr Let us know how to do running your own medical experiment! You obviously have all the knowledge, background and resources to do so. Glad you are not fooled by any of the experts trying to help get people through the currents of contagion. Rugged individualism is in such short supply, so even if it goes off the rails, you can say you figured it out for yourself and will live, can live, with your results! No sniveling or groveling!!!

He really did a great job, and it shows how skilled and capable he is. But at the same time, he seems very weird and awkward, like something is not right with him. He is not the type of person, that most people would enjoy much to hang around, you know very socially awkward. I guess he is very introverted and does not feel comfortable communicating with other people. That is probably why he chose this solitary/isolated lifestyle in the first place. Most people do not enjoy/seek living alone in the middle of nowhere. They want to live with and around other people, like family and friends. He does not seem like the ordinary person. But this is not meant as an offense, just an observation. I respect his courage to build his life, the way he enjoys and wants, he did a great job at that. But it is definitely not my way. So to each his own.

@@jennysmith8835 Yes, I agree with you partially. Sometimes I wonder if life was different in the past, more social and less competition. People knew each other, the entire community was basically the village. To me, living completely isolated is the same unnatural insanity like living in a city with a million strangers. We were meant to live with max. 100 people. We wouldn't have survived alone or with too many people. But times have changed.
