It feels good to make things with your hands

anyone can do it, i remember building mud and wood huts in the woods as a kid

I thought the point of technological progress was to avoid doing that.

I think it might be the inverse of the "advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic" thing. By seeing something primitive, we're instead awed by our understanding. It impresses not by exceeding our comprehension but by relating to it.

but then you are dependent on other people, which sucks. wouldn't you love to make your own stuff? if it was simple and easy for me, I would.

Because sitting in a fucking cubicle makes you will the end of civilization. Primitive technology fits into this fantasy.

Its just fascinating seeing how shit is built from the literal ground up

Have you never made anything user?

Sure but that doesn't make it bad. All forms of transport are invented to avoid walking but people still like doing it from time to time. It's something our bodies and psyches are made to do so it's good to do it once and a while. Connecting with a primitive state is relaxing, especially when you can return to modern material abundance afterwards.

what channel is this?

I have mass-production technology to do that for me

This one obviously

Behind the scenes they use excavator to dig. There are more than 2 people. They make few bricks by hands but buy rest of them etc. Don't fall for this shitty scam.

Yes Viets are based

Minecraft

source?

because we must know how to rebuild
all the way to a 486DX2

Primitive = not much money (or no at all) will be spend on it. Primitive techonologies are spread mostly in poor countries like some asian or african. It is effective, it is cheap or, again, free. Thats why it is so popular thing

Common sense man. Do you think two man can dig a large ass pool with sticks? It'd take month if not days. One episode where they made bricks, the hand made were irregular in size and rough after taking out from fire. Later on they use shiny polished bricks in the pool. Its like that piss eater bear in man vs wild.

We live in a society

I think most people who use primitive techonologies dont want to make it, they NEED to make it. Africa asia again. They dont have enough money to buy a good apartments for themself. Or they live like in 10 century, some african tribes for example. They only know how to make this kind of buildings

That's an interesting viewpoint

It's relaxing to watch but it's not so relaxing sweating your balls off and being eaten alive by mosquitoes.

It's relaxing to watch, almost meditation like.

comfy

user said it best many threads ago

"its like he is speed-running civilisation"

Biology can't keep up with technological progress. This should be very obvious by now.

Everyone has this niggling feeling in the back of their mind that this information will be useful again sometime in the future

He became aimless.
Primitive Skill meanwhile looks like he has a plan.

>He became aimless.
It's a shame. At one point, it seemed he would continue adding to his hut and expand his tech.
But he just started repeating the same builds.

If I see him 'reset' again, I give up

I learned how to make charcoal watching one of his videos.

what are your thoughts on restarting in Civilization until you get an amazing start?

>implying provided with any and all modern tools and training to use them the 70 iq niggers in africa would use them for anything productive

any more like these?

Instant feel-good gratification with no effort, mental or physical.

Most of these don't even talk any/much.

They don't have a choice, check your privilege!

His production is nice and calming, almost meditative

>Most of these don't even talk any/much.
That's what makes it good though. Nuffin worse than some faggit with a boring/annoying personality, slowly or over enthusiastically teach me the way of his people.
Nigger, shut the fuck up and weave those wicker baskets more slowly 'n sexy like

Because we all have inner-nigger inside

honestly, I don't get why some copycats call themselves "primitive ", when they clearly use modern technologies for some of the stuff they do, while the primitive tech guy builds stuff manually from the ground up

also, he clearly does some research on his shit

>NOTIFICATION: BRIMITIVE TEGNOLOGY HAS UPLOADED A VIDEO
>BTW ITS SOMETHING HES ALREADY MADE 3 TIMES IN THE PAST LMAO U MAD FUG U

he had amazing opportunity to go through all the stages of technological development albeit crude and chooses instead to make hut after hut after hut instead of crude metal tools

Hes pretty much past nigger tech already and didn't use a single blood sacrifice or act of cannibalism

I don't trust mainlands at all, they're shifty.

but he had to move to the new spot

only thing shifting is ur fkn chromosomes u fucking TWOHEAD

developing metallurgy takes time

Fuck off, mainlander. Nobody cares about your pro-racemixing memes.

it's keyword bait I think, and it works. that's why I was wondering the specific reason why people are so drawn to it when I made this thread

I hope ppl are not confusing this gook scam channel with the original primitive technology channel

It's highly successful

>HEY WHADDUP YOOTOOBE, WELCOME TO MY EXTREME CONSUMERISM DRIVEN ASS GAPING CHANNEL!! DON'T FORGET TO LIKE, SUBSCRIBE, SEND ME MONEY, AND IMPREGNATE YOUR WIFE WITH MY SEED!
>THIS VIDEO IS SPONSORED BY...
>[proceeds to play fortnite/review some consumer crap]

Because technology has denied us our own primitive impulses. Humans were not made to sit in a fucking box 12 hours a day taking orders from some fat balding manlet. I'm saving up some money to do exactly this, go into the woods with nothing and see if I can make it out alive.

Whenever the aussie guy finally comes up with something new and cool I bet those scumass third worlders are gonna copy it immediately. Also if you look at the most recent video description and the one before that, he's put links and shit at the beginning instead of his huge paragraph about what he's doing. I think he's worried about subs now, he's also changed his icon which is a shame

Why doesn't he just clone the old repo?

Some subhuman was copying his content to faceberg and other outlets for a while and making like 10 times the money through ads.

Lowest chance of botnet in it.

>I thought the point of technological progress was to avoid doing that.

>people enjoy making and optimizing things, it gives them a purpose
>get your neighbor/tribe involved to make things easier and specialize
>find a way to mass produce for everybody
>further generations have less
>society as a whole thrives but the people who are not satisfied with the status quo of being a small cog in the machine find it harder and harder to find a purpose without spending a lot of time and money on education/diplomas
>watch these videos and fantasize about what it would feel like to be free of societal restraints and just figure basic shit out for yourself

It's mostly just a vicarious fantasy is my guess as most people would rather go back to being a corporate drone rather than having to shit outside.

There is something to be said about being able to just build a house or stuff by yourself. There's a reason why Minecraft got so popular. It touch some deep primitive desire to do so even if it's not real.

Those who watch can live vicariously through him, since this type of thing is no longer possible for most people they instead watch videos like this to get some satisfaction.

May as well ask why porn is popular...

Good answer too

Most people on this planet are not white, and therefore have not evolved for enough to use a computer.

Realistically speaking, if for some reason all the technological advancement were to disappear along a significant number of humanity.
How would you bring it back?
or just say you're transported into middle ages and the people back then didn't chase you.

because we're primitives pretending not to be, and also because many of us know how good we've got it, and want to understand or appreciate what present day poverty or ancient struggles look like
and yet we're all still just apes that lust after conflict and conquest.
Nice to see a free thinker in here. Don't let the rest of us get you down, user.

This

I'd start with simple things like charcoal and black powder.

Creating weak electricity is also relatively easy, but a lot hard to build something to use it.

Middle ages are tough, but post-apocalypse is a lot easier, since there'd be a lot of leftover tools and materials like axes, hammers, nails, magnets, copper wire, sheet metal, etc.

>He became aimless
He moved away from his original area and had to start over.

>post-apocalypse
Ok, let's go with that.
How would you be able to manage your daily necessity?
For power I guess, solar panels + converter + batteries.

I just want to know if he uses soap or no.

I would argue that while we shouldn't necessarily been doing that, we also need the make sure the knowledge is not lost.

I mean, we live in an era of GPS and yet yo average grunts are still taught map reading and signalmen are taught morse code when let's face it, noone will use them

because muh simplicity makes bainlets feel good about themselves because they think they understand something

It's a cool hobby that's requires too much effort and dirtiness to pursue, so everyone is satisfied watching someone else do it. Additionally, the videos have just the right amount of commentary and cut out nonsense.

I remember building whole village as a kid

probably not
natural grease on the skin serves him as protection against harsh Australian environment

So his good genes protect him?

It's easy, interesting and rewarding.

simplicity, average human doesn't know how terribly windows spies on them, a well? old consoles or older computer disconnected from the internet? you usually know exactly what's going on in there and are at peace

I always got banned for making a thread about "Primitive Technology".
I find it really cool though.

it's almost alien feeling seeing shit thrive under your hand instead of being consumed/destroyed

super boring

I've watched a few videos from this channel, and they're fine, but I think I prefer Wranglerstar and Skillcult. Still rural, still hands-on stuff, but there's a lot of instructional value from them talking why they do certain things. I see value to both. I often dream of having my own land, growing my own food, and generating my own power. Something like modded minecraft, but in real life.

Damn that sucks to hear. They must've had a field day when they learned they could make big wads of cash when they saw this whitey rolling in mud. Just add tits like this one just for good measure. I hate youtube audiences

Because hhes showing a white man by himself can achieve more than black civilizations have ever acheived

Why do you suppose the shitskin imitator channels like primitive skills etc are much less popular??

Because he's hot you fucking mouthbreathers.
