The text appears to be a transcription of a video or podcast where the speaker discusses the extreme cold conditions in Yakutsk, a city in the Republic of Sakha in Russia, also known as Yakutia. The speaker mentions the city's isolation, with temperatures dropping to about minus 50 degrees Celsius, and how this affects daily life.
The speaker mentions that cars in Yakutsk have to run their engines constantly to prevent the engine oil from freezing, and that if a car breaks down, the driver risks freezing to death within a few hours in rural areas without phone signal. The speaker also notes the city's richness in resources, including oil, natural gas, and diamonds.
The conditions in Yakutsk are so extreme that they can cause frostbite in just 15 minutes, and the city's architecture is designed to cope with the frozen ground. The speaker mentions that buildings are built on pillars to prevent them from sinking into the ice.
The city's population is primarily of Russian origin, and the speaker mentions that only mammals, with very thick skin, can survive in these conditions. The speaker also mentions that people in Yakutsk display their fish in public stalls rather than in refrigerators, as the cold outside is colder than any refrigerator.
The speaker concludes by expressing gratitude for the support of their team and inviting viewers to become members of their team to help fund future projects.
