Documentary from the coldest inhabited village on earth. The record low dates back to 1926 with a reported temperature of minus 71.2 degrees Celsius. My working conditions were less harsh: Minus 58 degrees Celsius was the record low during my assignment. Photographs taken with my old Fuji 6x9 camera can be seen on my homepage: http://www.mariusborn.com

  • Not true, Andre. I just passed Tomtor on my way to Oimjakon. The majority of the images shown in part III are taken in Oimjakon. There is, however, an ongoing controversy whether Oimjakon or Tomtor is the coldest inhabited place. In my opinion there are many reasons to believe that, in fact, Tomtor is the world's coldest village.

  • Der Mann da hat vollkommen Recht:

    Man muss keine Angst vor der Kälte haben!Wenn ich meinen Abschluss mache,besuche ich Ojmjakon!Ich bin so der Typ,der die Kälte mag,und nicht die Hitze.

  • do they not have polar nights in oymyakon? i am surprised there is so much daylight.

  • Ganze schurn ,...danke!

  • I realy like this video. it's a shame that it is in german (I don't understand a word). It would be nice if someone can translate it at least in english (I'm a spanish speaker) or if anyone can subtitle it. I can see from the commentaries that a lot of people can speak german and english. Please!. Greetings from Argentina!
