Sunny's video • How Primitive Building... This is the greatest primitive building of All Time Merch moistglobal.com/ I stream every day / moistcr1tikal
I remember showing my uncle, who is a construction manager, one of the fake primitive building videos and him saying, “Imagine my construction company spending hundreds of dollars on raw materials and machinery to make cement when we could have just mixed water and dirt together.”

I would be to, like Charlie is a source you can trust MOST of the time If Logan Paul called it fake I’d most likely would think every single video is real even knowing it’s not Sources matter but both Sunny and Charlie should’ve been taken at least semi seriously
I remember back in mid-2020 I was looking in the comments in one of these channels and I saw someone say "ah yes, step one, buy bricks from your local brick store" and the creator of the video REPLIED to it saying "no, we had a tutorial for brick making!" THE AUDACITY.
@@FreddyKruegerTheDreamDemonMaking bricks is hard using primitive inefficient furnaces. Even primitive technology had quite the trouble making only a few.
WHAT?!? You mean to tell me that two dudes in the jungle with a pointy stick didn't actually build a 5 star waterpark with working plumbing in a few days?
As someone who's had to dig up several large stumps, the fact that we're supposed to believe that the one guy digs that absolutely massive hole in a few hours is ridiculous. It's taken me longer to dig up SMALL stumps
any person who did dig knows that you can dig like 20-30 shovels then you need to rest a few minutes, otherwise you wont be able to work. And 20 shovels is like nothing compared to half a pool of space they dig xD
I love primitive technology. Been watching that dude for years. The thing is... no-one would ever call him fake. He's not doing ridiculous buildings. The whole point is that he wants to take a break from modern life sometimes and live like primitive humans for a bit. Not to mention he shows pretty much everything he does.
And by the way, cement (a core component of concrete) is made from limestone and clay. Clay is a rather common soil type (not that the stuff he was digging up from the river seemed like clay...), but just clay is not enough to make cement, let alone concrete. Interestingly you can build somewhat permanent housing out of clay. Early civilizations did so a LOT. Primitive Technology also makes some great stuff out of clay. But yeah, I saw like one of those fake channels, I believe it was some video where they made a pool, and I instantly blocked it and decided one "life of primitive humans" channel was enough for me.
People were calling this on Twitter many moons ago. It’s very frustrating that they destroy the environment for fake videos. They could be more responsible about it.
the funniest part about all of this is when you think about what actually happened here, basically a group of guys dug a bunch of holes using modern equipment and hundreds of millions of people were like "wow, amazing!"
He looks like that guy too. yeah XD but i think its just a case of when people have the balls to look like charlie dose, its a clear sign they alls have the brains to be someone you need listen too. "they hated him for he spoke the truth"
9:10 You can, kind of! Cob is a mixture of sand, clay and straw (basically adobe with a different consistency) that's a pretty good insulator and can be molded into shapes (search 'cob house' for some YT examples). But in the end it's still basically mud, so 1. you need to coat it with plaster or it'll crumble after the first rain, and 2. it can't withstand a lot of weight so most of the larger structures you see in the fake channels would be a no go
Poor people build their houses like that in the rural Andes without plaster or anything. That's a dry climate nothing like the SEA jungle where this is built (never mind using it for a pool FILLED WITH WATER), and it still doesn't last as long as a brick house. There are also mud constructions in places like Mali and Iran that have stood over 1000 years, I don't know what additional steps they used, but those are also very dry places.
To the people who think that digging a 10 ft hole is possible in a few hours with sticks and bare hands should try it, you'll find yourself giving up before even reaching 5 feet by the end of the day. 😂
if it was easy to dig 10 ft hole then serial killers would dig 30 ft holes and they'd never find the bodies. But it's not easy. They usually give up and settle for 3-4 footer makeshift grave which is easily detected by dogs. I mean, they are pretty determined to not get caught right? So why they dig so shallow graves? It's because it's fucking hard to do without mechanical tools. If you tried to dig a hole you propably realize that sooner or later you hit a rock. Then a bigger rock. Then even bigger rock. Eventually you are running into rocks that are 2 feet in diameter and weigh about as much as yourself. You're not getting past that without tools.
No kidding. I was helping my uncle and cousin in digging a long, 1 meter deep hole to my grandma's house for the purpose of implementing a water system which came from a borehole and it took us HOURS just to get to the house, and additional hours to get the right depth. We were using SHOVELS and we were 3 people (me, my brother and cousin, my uncle was doing some drilling by the house). All the wet clay that started appearing at the 40cm mark alone was just HELL.
Just ask anyone who served in military and ask how much time they spend digging body height trenches. A nice and not tiring at all experience lmao just like in minecraft
I'm astonished people didn't know they're completely fake. Everyone who ever dug a hole in their life knows that it takes a lot of time and effort even with modern shovels/spades. You can't just have two people excavate metric tons of dirt by poking the ground with a stick.
@@randomcrusader5632 no you are gullible you don’t get to say “we” to divert blame. And also being gullible and not thinking about things is exactly what is wrong with the world right now to extend this example a little further.
@@user-wi4cs8sg8q Dude, falling for entertainment like primitive swimming pools doesn't mean they fall for other things. I am 100% sure you've been duped many times by something, probably even yesterday, but you're likely not going to divulge that. We are all human. A commentor believing something as trivial as some clickbait video about dirt pools isn't the same as being unknowledgeable about space, about medicine, about climate change, about political issues, etc. You're just being very self-righteous more than you are being helpful.
To be fair there really isn't much stopping everyone from having decent homes for relatively cheap except that a bunch of rich landlords and corporations just buy up all the houses and sell them at a much higher rate. Also, the fact that architects don't often build low-income housing as they can just build expensive homes and make more money.
@@eitantal726 "Easy" isn't exactly the right word to use. The supposed (and fake) method requires a massive amount of physical effort. Effort that very VERY few people are willing to give.
Imagine just grabbing a handful of mud from a river, taking it to sun and expecting concrete strength. Our ancestors would have advanced much faster if they had such magic.
Yeah the primitive technology dude's always been upfront how absurdly long it takes to make the simple things he does, and the historical examples he bases his stuff on, in the captions and in his descriptions.
I think the big clue is that his projects are all fairly simple and non-contrived, he's not going out and building an entire waterpark out in the jungle somewhere, it's all little shelters and huts and stuff.
Somehow I already felt something was fishy about two guys being able to build all these structures in the span of a few days. Digging is suprisingly hard so I at least assumed they had an entire team to help them out.
Contrary to most comments I actually didnt know these videos were fake, most of the time i would see these videos at like 3:40am while being half-sleep and being like "yeah thats a cool pool" without thinking alot about it
Some of them are real. If a dude is just building a hut and a fire maybe a shallow well, it's probably real. If a dude made a whole aquaducted system into a giant pool, it was bullshit lol
Oh for sure. I build different things for a living, i work in a carpentry shop type deal and the way they show how they do certain things or how things end up looking when they're done it's pretty obvious to tell that they needed power tools or machinery of some sort to get it done. There's just no way you could pull some of these builds off with nothing but your hands, the natural stuff around you and the sheer man power. No way lol
Dude, it never even clicked in my head that it was supposed to be cement. I thought were just using mud to have a liquid diet for better sealing or some shit. Always sat there and thought to myself "real shame that it's all gonna wash away the first time it rains."
@@inateinate well exactly lol you can't use regular mud or whatever to build anything solid that's gonna last. Just the whole way that they do things doesn't make any sense if you're familiar with building things and even just novice construction work.
@9:24 - concrete is a mix of aggregate (sand and gravel) with a binder (cement). Cement is actually pretty difficult to make in large quantities, because it's typically slaked lime (calcium hydroxide), which is made by burning and wetting limestone or sail/mollusk shells. You can also get very small amounds of it from the ashes of burnt smallbrush, but it's very innefficient because you have to burn it twice.
Tbh, you'd have a lot better luck trying to make a buildimg out of adobe than fired bricks and just using the same mixture minus the straw as your mortar.
Putting aside the whole primitive building drama; this situation with Charlie initially being ignored really shows the power of a constructed and scripted video, more specifically a video essay opposed to an unformulated rant. When a CZcamsr puts their argument in a format like sunny does it becomes alot easier to buy into. Really shows how the landscape of the Internet shifts depending on how certain opinions are put across in certain ways.
@@Bettersucksaul got an email that says it's from an insider Wouldn't even surprise me if the email is fake as well just to finally call out the fakes xD
A little different of a situation, but kind of like what happened to Leafy from Idubbbz content cop vid. A well put together video can do a lot of damage.
Charlie radiates "disappointed but caring parent" energy right here, I found out about this controversy just recently but I wasn't deep enough into it to really care though witnessing this I-told-you-so moment is like being called in by your mom before you know what your in trouble for
I work in the British Army, Royal Engineers. During phase 2 training, part of it was learning about trenching. Digging a 1.7 metre deep, 5 metre long and roughly 0.5 metre wide trench took the better part of an afternoon. Keep in mind this was with around 10 people all working on it, switching in and out, etc. When I saw the videos of just two men excavating vast volumes of ground with the bare minimum of tools, I immediately called bullshit. Sometimes you don't need video evidence, tracks, or stuff like that. Just go and dig a hole yourself.
And you used modern equipment to do it. They would take at least 10 times it took your 10 people to do the same work doing it morning and afternoon and that doesn't take into account food of any kind. Digging is hard af and the amount of calories and tools breaking under primitive conditions would slow everything down slightly still. So, yea, if you ever dug without machines you know how much faster they are. It's stupid how much faster they are.
I spent 3 days in infantry FTX digging a single Foxhole with gun 3 of weapon’s team. Gathering cover and concealment, replacing dead foliage and of course digging and shaping the hole to a fucking 240. Yeah you can spot the bs from a mile away in these videos
This is why the majority of digging you see in John Plant's Primitive Technology channel are only minimal, and if he's digging big holes, it's mainly to just get clay for brick/pottery work
It’s hilarious because the dirt they’re “digging” is always perfectly soft like it’s had a tiller used on it. Using hilarious shovels and not spades. And yet it’s so light and easy to do. Then I can’t believe they believe these people find crystal clear water and somehow drain it across a flat terrain with bamboo. Anyone who’s ever dug a big hole knows it’s BS
Anyone who’s even tried to dig a fucking hole will know how difficult it is to dig a hole, it’s surprisingly difficult to do so on ground worthy for construction
We have to dig 5 feet post holes with 12 inch diameter at my job and sometimes one hole will take me 30 minutes with a shovel, post hole digger, and spud bar. I don’t think they are digging a whole underground mansion in a weekend lmao
I've seen only one of these videos, I dont even remember how many years ago, basically a guy building a luxury pool in Cambodia or something, and even at that time I knew it was fake hahaha. Well done Charlie, nice video.
Primitive Technology is the OG! Watched him for years. If you're new to his channel make sure to have CC turned on. He doesn't speak and explains his methods/thoughts via captions.
it sucks, but its to be expected, when someone takes a venture into the unknown and makes success on their own, people will try to get ahead of them by cutting corners using and their reputation...
You could always tell his stuff was legit cause while it was cool, his stuff wasn't these grand structures like other channels, cause he's actually just one guy building things with sticks and mud.
It’s insane Twitchchat would bite Charlie’s head off about this. He’s not a stupid guy and they look incredibly fake. It’s the same sort of fake vibe as pouring sprite in a hole and pulling out a boa constrictor.
I mean, are you surprised? There are normal people, there are stupid, and then there are Charlie's fans that repeat the exact same jokes for years and steal it from each other. It wouldn't be exaggeration to say they're nearly brainless, so there's a huge gap between Charlie and what fans he has. I guess it's just a curse of being one of the most popular youtubers/twitch streamers.
It's not as bad as the day his chat kept defending a channel that was making videos with hamster, putting them in potentially dangerous situations and extremely stressful ones, charlie pointed the ridiculous cut the channel made to make them not look so bad but the idiots used completely different hamsters to show that the hamster that fell from the bridge actually fell on a soft surface, I really can't believe anyone would look at those clips and be like "this seems legit", and even be angry towards someone that is pointing a possible animal abuse situation
For anyone interested, there's a castle being built in France called Guedelon. It's being built with only medieval tools. It's the largest archaeological experiment happening, going on for...about a decade? Maybe longer. There's a series posted on here called Secrets of the Castle. Pretty much everything is done as it would have been done in medieval times, though there are some exceptions--namely modern health and safety standards.
@@upendownlinker It's due to be completed in 2023, and is now making money from tourist visits. From what I just Google'd, it makes about five million annually. It's a project that appears to fund itself.
I came to the comments looking for someone that knows how primitive skills is a totally legit, no BS, and true to the style guy... obviously inspired by primitive technology. I also kind of find it interesting how P.S. even went further on the tech tree than P.T. on the year long hiatus that he took trying to get that TV deal going, I wonder if P.T. will ever catch up to him. Love both channels to the bone, and despise with all my heart all the low-effort spinoff fakers out there.
I never really watched these kinds of things much, but a bit after seeing sunny's video I saw a primitive video come up in discussion in a discord server and it seemed pretty legitimate. He made a crossbow, and it took a lot of time to show a lot of steps. I think it was called "Primitive Skills," and I liked seeing another channel that wasn't just "primitive swimming pool, woo!"
Watching Charlie get more and more flabbergasted by no one believing him when he said it is the definition of “the bee’s knees” Very enjoyable, quality content
I actually thought everyone already knew these channels were fake. Even if you ignore the actual proofs, like the drone footage, or the excavator, there's no fucking way 2 dudes would build those mansions out of mud, and just a stick.
I never questioned it. I have never dug a hole of any size (city slicker) so I have no concept of how long digging takes. I also thought those primitive digging videos took place over weeks or even months
Remember, just because someone doesn’t make a whole well-scripted speech about something doesn’t mean they’re wrong. A minute long rant can be just as effective as a 30-minute video. Edit: What I mean by this is as long as they have evidence, it doesn’t matter how it’s presented.
@@Inconzii exactly. The difference between Charlie’s rant and Sunny’s video is that one gave a structured argument as to why they’re right while the other is less of that and more of an intuition
Primitive Technology was the only one I was familiar with; I knew others existed, but I never had any reason to go over to them, and having seen this, I'm glad I did.
You know how Archeologists were like creaming their pants over Aztec ruins, imagine decades later the confusion of those Archeologists seeing random Primitive building shit.

well back then we had old rock tablets with little to no info, but now we got better ways to keep data stored. I'm sure in the future they will access to ancient videos that explain the tiny buildings
That nice feeeling to know im not alone in this thought. Loved primitive technologies and only that channel. I love how it even explains the history behind whatever he was making.
9:13 you can with clay and weeds although you need to go from the bottom up making walls you would have to wait until some on the bottom dried ten place more on top I’ve done this while trying to make one of these
You don't need a 12 minute analysis video for this. You could tell it's fake the second you see their upload frequency. You can't physically get that much work done in a timeframe like that without using modern machinery off-screen.
As someone who is currently working to build a cabin with his dad, and we had to buy a $10k backhoe which has already broken and cost us $4k to buy a flatbed to haul it out for repairs, yeah, you aren't building this shit by hand with two guys.
@@barnabyjones5161 theyre building a cabin which means they already have a home and plus they probably own the land that the cabin in being built on which- taxes,, im sure they’re not hurting for money.
as a child who grew up trying to build concrete walls with a wheelbarrow and homemade mud, I would've immediately debunked these videos if I ever watched them
The fact that "Primitive Technology" is as beloved as he is, is the only thing that gives me a glimpse of hope for humanity. He started it all and always stayed true to himself. I'm so glad he came back.

The fact that they "found" anything resembling concrete in nature should put any doubts to rest. Concrete is a mix of cement, sand, and a few additives for increased structural integrity. The cement alone goes through a rigorous manufacturing process, and if they were any smarter they would have used clay instead. How was that not an immediate red flag?
Thanks. The archaeologist in me was screaming every time they just neatly excavated huge chunks of earth in seemingly just a few hours, because I've done enough back-breaking shovelling to know how long that shit takes, even with a large group and a digger on site.
Anyone who has had to dig holes in or near forests would know instantly that was fake without any other evidence required. What happens is that you hit large rocks and roots every few inches which forces you to stop and hack away at the roots or dig around the rock and drag it out. Sometimes it is a very large rock and it is a massive pain to get it out. What is even worse is when there are roots entangled into large rocks and it is just a nightmare. You want to dig a two foot hole? Prepare to spend hours.
As a guy that helps my father mix a few bags of cement, that mixture has too many water in it. They should at least add much more earth to make somewhat solid even if t couldn't hold up the pillars better.
I like hearing that Charlie had his feelings hurt for no reason other than it’s good to express that openly. I also think it’s insane how you could look at more than one of these videos with insane excavation and say it was done by like 3 guys. Nutty people on these websites man.
I think its more people wanting to believe in the extraordinary than being actually stupid ( at least a few of them haha) My wife and I sat down and watched one of these building videos dismissing them as phony, however the creators do complete some of the segments of the video in convincing ways and with convincing cuts my wife said that the cement making process was fake and I claimed "wow thats the part you thought was fake ? what about the rest of it if anything that was the most realistic part they used to make adobo bricks in ancient sumer!" but I digress my point is theres so much unbelivable shit that goes on in the world and that people ARE legitamely capable of the this just seems relatively possible even if its absurd once analyzed more in depth.
Twitch chat is collectively retarded and people say the absolute most mind-numbingly stupid shit there unironically and with a straight face. Something about it attracts the most smooth-brained shoe-size-IQ takes.
I feel genuinely sorry for Charlie being laughed at and people not listening until someone else says it. It's obvious he's hurt. Love you Charlie, I believed you!
i never really thought they were actually doing it like we see , i always thought it was just showing that they are building cool things but they have tools helping
People are so biased about certain people. For an example, Charlie's explanation vs Sunny's, is a perfect example of it, because Sunny's known for his detailed mini-documentries, and Charlie isn't known for that, but he still was right and people said he was wrong. I hope people mature in the future.
I don't think it's about people needing to mature. They simply see Sunny as a more trustworthy person than Charlie and they know they can have trust in him telling the truth.
I am sure that a lot of people had this experience of people not believing you till someone with more clout has said it, though what sucks after is when they just say "No you are just copying" when you have proof that you originally said it. It is the literal example of "This guy said it better than you therefor he is right and no one is going to remember that you said it" you know one of those weird stupid tribalistic parts that still live on in humanity
Fr. "This is wrong, let me explain how" and "this is so clearly wrong that I shouldn't need to explain" might be different but mean the same. I honestly think Charlie offers more thought and freedom so we can further look up details ourselves
@@arkfish Yes, Sunny is seen as more credible, but it's still an issue of maturity. Charlie never claimed to be knowledgeable, he just gave his layman's opinion and people bashed it because "you don't know what you're talking about bro" when they lack the self-awareness to see the irony. Clearly, they didn't either AND they were wrong. Plus, primitive building videos just have a high chance to be fake. Are they white knighting for these channels or something? I judge those channels on a "guilty until innocent" basis.
People are quick to follow a person, an idea, a belief. When your life is the internet, and nihilism creeps in, it takes a strong character to break free.
They didn't believe Charlie at first because he was explaining it on stream, instead of them finding a well edited video that spoonfeeds them information that Charlie already gave to them at the time they wanted too.
Shout out to the moist man himself. He is a very smart guy and he constantly admits when he was wrong and continues to grow. He knew these were fake but he still is able to admit he didn't see some of the inconsistencies shown in sunny's video. Takes in perspective while also being realistic. Hard to come by.
I can only imagine how hurt his feelings were when no one believed him until someone else pointed out the same thing with the same evidence. And yet, he remained forgiveful. Honestly, I'd rant viciously at my audience if I was in his position even if it isn't nice.
I know i would though. The champ goes through all that and even basic people would know 2x2 is 4. But no his audiance is "smart" and says that its actually 5 even if on screen evidence says it isn't. I mean i like some channels but even i can smell most basic crap that they make and connect the dots that maybe, just maybe they aren't exatcly good content creator
Man, I'm glad primitive technology is legit, he was the first channel I ever watched, and I loved it. I hated all the copycat channels that followed. I liked the channels that focus on the primitive methods, it's interesting to see how things like Bricks, and Blacksmithing were done to make the tools we now use today. It makes you appreciate how hard work it was back then for something so simple
I remember showing my uncle, who is a construction manager, one of the fake primitive building videos and him saying, “Imagine my construction company spending hundreds of dollars on raw materials and machinery to make cement when we could have just mixed water and dirt together.”
read my name
I'm one of the idiots that believed them lol I figured they like purposefully chose sand and clay to build in
I haven't even watch them yet and now I'm getting spoilers up the ass.
Yea I knew they were fake as hell too from being a construction worker long ago. As well as those saving animals cats/dogs videos, fake as hell
Using mud to make a house is not the fake part of the videos, man.
Charlies biggest mistake was not using big red arrows to point out the excavator tracks.

9:10 You can, kind of! Cob is a mixture of sand, clay and straw (basically adobe with a different consistency) that's a pretty good insulator and can be molded into shapes (search 'cob house' for some YT examples). But in the end it's still basically mud, so 1. you need to coat it with plaster or it'll crumble after the first rain, and 2. it can't withstand a lot of weight so most of the larger structures you see in the fake channels would be a no go
Poor people build their houses like that in the rural Andes without plaster or anything. That's a dry climate nothing like the SEA jungle where this is built (never mind using it for a pool FILLED WITH WATER), and it still doesn't last as long as a brick house. There are also mud constructions in places like Mali and Iran that have stood over 1000 years, I don't know what additional steps they used, but those are also very dry places.
Isn’t Cob a bit more complex than sand claw and straw?
From my history class ten years ago I thought there were some cow shit and other stuff in there
I know its a typo but I'm dying "claw and straw"
To the people who think that digging a 10 ft hole is possible in a few hours with sticks and bare hands should try it, you'll find yourself giving up before even reaching 5 feet by the end of the day. 😂
if it was easy to dig 10 ft hole then serial killers would dig 30 ft holes and they'd never find the bodies. But it's not easy. They usually give up and settle for 3-4 footer makeshift grave which is easily detected by dogs. I mean, they are pretty determined to not get caught right? So why they dig so shallow graves? It's because it's fucking hard to do without mechanical tools.
If you tried to dig a hole you propably realize that sooner or later you hit a rock. Then a bigger rock. Then even bigger rock. Eventually you are running into rocks that are 2 feet in diameter and weigh about as much as yourself. You're not getting past that without tools.
No kidding. I was helping my uncle and cousin in digging a long, 1 meter deep hole to my grandma's house for the purpose of implementing a water system which came from a borehole and it took us HOURS just to get to the house, and additional hours to get the right depth. We were using SHOVELS and we were 3 people (me, my brother and cousin, my uncle was doing some drilling by the house). All the wet clay that started appearing at the 40cm mark alone was just HELL.
Some people just never read ‘holes’ when they were younger
You won’t reach 5 feet that’s a fact. It’s hilarious how twitch chat has never dug a hole which says something in itself.

I always wondered what happened to all the buildings they create.... Like they're always in the middle of the forest building giant homes/pools
the pools must be such a safety hazard for wildlife..
They're just left to disintegrate, sadly.
I'm astonished people didn't know they're completely fake. Everyone who ever dug a hole in their life knows that it takes a lot of time and effort even with modern shovels/spades.
You can't just have two people excavate metric tons of dirt by poking the ground with a stick.
This is a fantastic argument for getting kids playing outside. 5 minute crafts seems to prey on some of this too (like Jenna Marbles's jeans chair).
My skin was coming off just by digging few inches into the ground. And they made a whole swimming pool with sticks 😹😹

We are all human. A commentor believing something as trivial as some clickbait video about dirt pools isn't the same as being unknowledgeable about space, about medicine, about climate change, about political issues, etc. You're just being very self-righteous more than you are being helpful.
How to know it's fake: If it was so easy to build luxurious homes like that, Everyone would have one.
To be fair there really isn't much stopping everyone from having decent homes for relatively cheap except that a bunch of rich landlords and corporations just buy up all the houses and sell them at a much higher rate. Also, the fact that architects don't often build low-income housing as they can just build expensive homes and make more money.

when you said "but primitive technology is real" i breathed a sigh of relief
Yeah the primitive technology dude's always been upfront how absurdly long it takes to make the simple things he does, and the historical examples he bases his stuff on, in the captions and in his descriptions.
He's the og. He was the first guy to ever do it. Every other channel is a fake clone.
I think the big clue is that his projects are all fairly simple and non-contrived, he's not going out and building an entire waterpark out in the jungle somewhere, it's all little shelters and huts and stuff.
yea
That was the only one I'd heard of, so I assumed that channel was the one being exposed.
For the tire track thing, of course the video is fake but I could see why people would think it was naturally formed (specifically the 8:10 part).
Somehow I already felt something was fishy about two guys being able to build all these structures in the span of a few days. Digging is suprisingly hard so I at least assumed they had an entire team to help them out.
Contrary to most comments I actually didnt know these videos were fake, most of the time i would see these videos at like 3:40am while being half-sleep and being like "yeah thats a cool pool" without thinking alot about it
yeah I never rly thought abt it either, i was just like “ppl make cool build wif sticc” and didn’t think much of it
The first time I seen these guys was when my Dad showed them to me, he's not too familiar with internet culture so he believed them and so did I.

Some of them are real. If a dude is just building a hut and a fire maybe a shallow well, it's probably real. If a dude made a whole aquaducted system into a giant pool, it was bullshit lol
I feel like most people who know how cement is made have noticed the fakery going on with the bigger builds a long time ago.
read my name
Oh for sure. I build different things for a living, i work in a carpentry shop type deal and the way they show how they do certain things or how things end up looking when they're done it's pretty obvious to tell that they needed power tools or machinery of some sort to get it done. There's just no way you could pull some of these builds off with nothing but your hands, the natural stuff around you and the sheer man power. No way lol
Dude, it never even clicked in my head that it was supposed to be cement. I thought were just using mud to have a liquid diet for better sealing or some shit. Always sat there and thought to myself "real shame that it's all gonna wash away the first time it rains."
@@inateinate well exactly lol you can't use regular mud or whatever to build anything solid that's gonna last. Just the whole way that they do things doesn't make any sense if you're familiar with building things and even just novice construction work.
You don't even need to know how cement is made. I feel the people who didn't see the fakery are likely children.
@9:24 - concrete is a mix of aggregate (sand and gravel) with a binder (cement). Cement is actually pretty difficult to make in large quantities, because it's typically slaked lime (calcium hydroxide), which is made by burning and wetting limestone or sail/mollusk shells. You can also get very small amounds of it from the ashes of burnt smallbrush, but it's very innefficient because you have to burn it twice.
Tbh, you'd have a lot better luck trying to make a buildimg out of adobe than fired bricks and just using the same mixture minus the straw as your mortar.

Putting aside the whole primitive building drama; this situation with Charlie initially being ignored really shows the power of a constructed and scripted video, more specifically a video essay opposed to an unformulated rant. When a CZcamsr puts their argument in a format like sunny does it becomes alot easier to buy into. Really shows how the landscape of the Internet shifts depending on how certain opinions are put across in certain ways.

@Water Bottle yessss, and the only way to hold on to your sanity is to sit there basking in your innocence lmao
"Suck the dirtiest part of my ass" is the only thing that doesn't feel like something a disappointed parent would say.
I work in the British Army, Royal Engineers. During phase 2 training, part of it was learning about trenching. Digging a 1.7 metre deep, 5 metre long and roughly 0.5 metre wide trench took the better part of an afternoon. Keep in mind this was with around 10 people all working on it, switching in and out, etc. When I saw the videos of just two men excavating vast volumes of ground with the bare minimum of tools, I immediately called bullshit. Sometimes you don't need video evidence, tracks, or stuff like that. Just go and dig a hole yourself.
Thank you for your service.
And you used modern equipment to do it. They would take at least 10 times it took your 10 people to do the same work doing it morning and afternoon and that doesn't take into account food of any kind. Digging is hard af and the amount of calories and tools breaking under primitive conditions would slow everything down slightly still.
So, yea, if you ever dug without machines you know how much faster they are. It's stupid how much faster they are.
I spent 3 days in infantry FTX digging a single Foxhole with gun 3 of weapon’s team. Gathering cover and concealment, replacing dead foliage and of course digging and shaping the hole to a fucking 240. Yeah you can spot the bs from a mile away in these videos
Nice pfp :)
This is why the majority of digging you see in John Plant's Primitive Technology channel are only minimal, and if he's digging big holes, it's mainly to just get clay for brick/pottery work
8:00 I could hear charlie fighting back tears, man was punching pillows over this xD
"I was just ahead of my time, like Galileo".. I laughed so hard, legit spilled coffee on my shirt.
It’s hilarious because the dirt they’re “digging” is always perfectly soft like it’s had a tiller used on it. Using hilarious shovels and not spades. And yet it’s so light and easy to do. Then I can’t believe they believe these people find crystal clear water and somehow drain it across a flat terrain with bamboo. Anyone who’s ever dug a big hole knows it’s BS
Anyone who's dug even a relatively medium sized hole can say the same
Anyone who’s even tried to dig a fucking hole will know how difficult it is to dig a hole, it’s surprisingly difficult to do so on ground worthy for construction
as someone who was That Kid that dug holes in the dirt with sticks during recess I can confirm that it is absolutely not that easy
We need kids to dig more holes. Not for construction etc. just for fun.
We have to dig 5 feet post holes with 12 inch diameter at my job and sometimes one hole will take me 30 minutes with a shovel, post hole digger, and spud bar. I don’t think they are digging a whole underground mansion in a weekend lmao

It’s insane Twitchchat would bite Charlie’s head off about this. He’s not a stupid guy and they look incredibly fake. It’s the same sort of fake vibe as pouring sprite in a hole and pulling out a boa constrictor.

I mean, are you surprised? There are normal people, there are stupid, and then there are Charlie's fans that repeat the exact same jokes for years and steal it from each other. It wouldn't be exaggeration to say they're nearly brainless, so there's a huge gap between Charlie and what fans he has. I guess it's just a curse of being one of the most popular youtubers/twitch streamers.
i dont think anybody actually takes anything said in twitch chat seriously, i dont think even the chatters themselves take themselves seriously lol
It's not as bad as the day his chat kept defending a channel that was making videos with hamster, putting them in potentially dangerous situations and extremely stressful ones, charlie pointed the ridiculous cut the channel made to make them not look so bad but the idiots used completely different hamsters to show that the hamster that fell from the bridge actually fell on a soft surface, I really can't believe anyone would look at those clips and be like "this seems legit", and even be angry towards someone that is pointing a possible animal abuse situation

For anyone interested, there's a castle being built in France called Guedelon. It's being built with only medieval tools.

The fact that they "found" anything resembling concrete in nature should put any doubts to rest. Concrete is a mix of cement, sand, and a few additives for increased structural integrity. The cement alone goes through a rigorous manufacturing process, and if they were any smarter they would have used clay instead. How was that not an immediate red flag?
I mean concrete was invented by the ancient Romans but you're not wrong.

Anyone who has had to dig holes in or near forests would know instantly that was fake without any other evidence required. What happens is that you hit large rocks and roots every few inches which forces you to stop and hack away at the roots or dig around the rock and drag it out. Sometimes it is a very large rock and it is a massive pain to get it out. What is even worse is when there are roots entangled into large rocks and it is just a nightmare. You want to dig a two foot hole? Prepare to spend hours.

I think its more people wanting to believe in the extraordinary than being actually stupid ( at least a few of them haha) My wife and I sat down and watched one of these building videos dismissing them as phony, however the creators do complete some of the segments of the video in convincing ways and with convincing cuts my wife said that the cement making process was fake and I claimed "wow thats the part you thought was fake ? what about the rest of it if anything that was the most realistic part they used to make adobo bricks in ancient sumer!" but I digress my point is theres so much unbelivable shit that goes on in the world and that people ARE legitamely capable of the this just seems relatively possible even if its absurd once analyzed more in depth.
Twitch chat is collectively retarded and people say the absolute most mind-numbingly stupid shit there unironically and with a straight face. Something about it attracts the most smooth-brained shoe-size-IQ takes.
I believed him when he said it because I also thought it was fake lol.
Weiner sauce
I feel genuinely sorry for Charlie being laughed at and people not listening until someone else says it. It's obvious he's hurt. Love you Charlie, I believed you!
I have a feeling that we're experiencing what happened to Jesus but modern
Twitch chat always brain dead cancer

Common sense the curse of justified assholory. What is logical?
I can't believe anyone ever thought they built these with their hands.
i never really thought they were actually doing it like we see , i always thought it was just showing that they are building cool things but they have tools helping
Charlie's joke about not needing to be the bigger man because he's 5'6 is brilliant
Holy shit I'm taller than him? I'm like 17 tho
Same tho
@@RebbecaRat I'm 14 and taller than him aswell, but he is still, the bigger man
@@occidereme8467 oh yeah definitely
@@RebbecaRat you kids are brain dead from the internet, Charlie is very short for a man you all aren’t special calm down.
People are so biased about certain people. For an example, Charlie's explanation vs Sunny's, is a perfect example of it, because Sunny's known for his detailed mini-documentries, and Charlie isn't known for that, but he still was right and people said he was wrong. I hope people mature in the future.
I don't think it's about people needing to mature. They simply see Sunny as a more trustworthy person than Charlie and they know they can have trust in him telling the truth.
I am sure that a lot of people had this experience of people not believing you till someone with more clout has said it, though what sucks after is when they just say "No you are just copying" when you have proof that you originally said it. It is the literal example of "This guy said it better than you therefor he is right and no one is going to remember that you said it" you know one of those weird stupid tribalistic parts that still live on in humanity
Fr. "This is wrong, let me explain how" and "this is so clearly wrong that I shouldn't need to explain" might be different but mean the same. I honestly think Charlie offers more thought and freedom so we can further look up details ourselves
@@arkfish Yes, Sunny is seen as more credible, but it's still an issue of maturity. Charlie never claimed to be knowledgeable, he just gave his layman's opinion and people bashed it because "you don't know what you're talking about bro" when they lack the self-awareness to see the irony. Clearly, they didn't either AND they were wrong.
Plus, primitive building videos just have a high chance to be fake. Are they white knighting for these channels or something? I judge those channels on a "guilty until innocent" basis.
People are quick to follow a person, an idea, a belief. When your life is the internet, and nihilism creeps in, it takes a strong character to break free.
"Naturally occurring tire tracks jungle tire tracks" Hmm, I've seen those before.
"concrete doesn't grow in a river" gotta be in the running for one of the best lines of 2022
They didn't believe Charlie at first because he was explaining it on stream, instead of them finding a well edited video that spoonfeeds them information that Charlie already gave to them at the time they wanted too.
Charlie should've made a video ngl
Shout out to the moist man himself. He is a very smart guy and he constantly admits when he was wrong and continues to grow. He knew these were fake but he still is able to admit he didn't see some of the inconsistencies shown in sunny's video. Takes in perspective while also being realistic. Hard to come by.
I can only imagine how hurt his feelings were when no one believed him until someone else pointed out the same thing with the same evidence. And yet, he remained forgiveful. Honestly, I'd rant viciously at my audience if I was in his position even if it isn't nice.
get off ur knees dude
I know i would though. The champ goes through all that and even basic people would know 2x2 is 4. But no his audiance is "smart" and says that its actually 5 even if on screen evidence says it isn't. I mean i like some channels but even i can smell most basic crap that they make and connect the dots that maybe, just maybe they aren't exatcly good content creator
I think Charlie is done growing ;)
@Kavetion Ur mum
Anybody whos ever actually worked long or hard enough to develop callouses on their hands knows that those sorts of videos are straight up impossible

Man, I'm glad primitive technology is legit, he was the first channel I ever watched, and I loved it. I hated all the copycat channels that followed. I liked the channels that focus on the primitive methods, it's interesting to see how things like Bricks, and Blacksmithing were done to make the tools we now use today. It makes you appreciate how hard work it was back then for something so simple

@Kavetion who asked??
Nah he always sounds like that.
