This guy truly knows who he is as a person and built his life to reflect that. Smart man.
@Mobley House Video Yeah I'm sure he worked hard for it. Nothing is free in life, he's living his best life because his hard work paid off.
@Mobley House Video with hard work anything is possible
Yup. Hard work and diligent planning.
@@NocturnalToothbrush very funny
anything IS possible, anyone can make change, if you say you can't thats just an excuse
"When the sun goes up, it's time to get up. When the sun goes down, time to go to bed", man if I did that in Sweden during the winter I'd have to sleep 18-20 hours a day.
HAH! That's funny :-D
tapp3r
I slept that in Michigan
Same in Estonia. And when the sun comes out, it's still this grayish weather so I'm never sure if it's 9 am or 3 pm.
Hello from 69 degrees parallel.
@@aksa706 Lithuania as well :) We call it cepelinai weather :D
From the start, Ryan was very helpful and is continuing to be helpful about his czcams.com/users/postUgkxGqOCINHE0Z0E5gxzSdNi9NWGugRY5Hm2 Plans . Also, they have answered all the questions I have asked & I got outstanding support from his My Shed Plans full package.
At first when I heard you say it took you 5 years to build it, I was like "whoa, 5 years to build a 250 sq foot home?" But then when you start the walk-thru, I'm stunned by all the detail work. Everything in there is a piece of meticulously crafted art that all fits together. Lots of thought and lots of hard work to make that a stunning and unique home. Now I'm thinking how hard you must have been working to get that done in 5 years, ha ha. What an awesome place!
this dude is an *extremely* high quality human being.
Came off fake as fuck when you start listening to some of what he says.
liiiiiike?
@@littleoldal Well saying that he rejected the golden ratio and came up with his own is one. Pointing to DC aux jacks and calling them rectifiers. Few other things too, but I don't hang on to other peoples bullshit that long. Kinda just laughed and moved on with my life. Especially after looking up how much the guy was still worth. I don't need an aging millionaire hanging on to that cool guy in the loft fantasy to tell me about living in small places. I got a few buddies that are life long truckers. I'm strangely sure they'll be more down to earth, and more knowledgeable somehow lol. Even when it comes to bulletproofing them lol.
The bulletproofing comment for context. The last few years robbers and thieves started just shooting up truck cabs while the driver is sleeping. Shoot em up. Detach the trailer. Hook it to a new rig. Take off. Dirty and dangerous stuff.
@@zyxwvutsrqponmlkjihgfedcba0 i didn't get those feelings when your points came up in the video.
i did think it was bs that he ?planned the beginning/foundation, and all else came organically.
if you've been dreaming of living off the grid since you were little,
you've been kind of planning lots of things for ages, right?
it is a sweet little cool spot he got up there.
must be nice to have money like that. i'll take these 40 acres in the tahoe area.
it'd be more impressive if he was living check to check.
ok. the star shadow on your birthday is the coolest thing ever!!
I wonder how he designed the star to fit
He mapped it out on the glass when it was his birthday! Obviously!
Hellz yeah!!!! The tiniest detail can mean sooo much!!!! Also, he's easy on the eyes, lollol!💝
@TheFallsCapone Which part of ireland would that be?
TheFallsCapone are there any videos online of this?
That house is absolutely gorgeous and it looks so relaxing and peaceful
bravo
225sq ft !
very funny
Guy needs to list this spot on AirBnB as an experience. I'd pay to spend a night or two there and do some snowboarding.
There is so much attention to detail in this house it is mind-blowing. The idea of learning as you go has a nostalgic feeling of ancient civilizations using cultural ecology while building on this mountain top. The star that lines up with the pentagon is the most amazing thing I have ever seen. Using the method of ethnoecology to utilize every natural piece of material to build the entire layout is really impressive. I love the table that has the rock within as a hot plate. This entire build has so many layers I can imagine how proud you must feel after it was completed.
Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
Holy cow.
Snowboarder/Architect/Engineer/Mason/Carpenter/Plumber/Electrician/Philosopher/Intellectual. Is there anything this guy can't do?
TheVelluch you forgot photographer and auto mechanic
You forgot welder.
Amazing cabin.
Long haul for groceries.
Must watch Rick and morty
Taxes
Evan Almighty Terrible show
You are so self aware. I’m so glad you’ve enjoyed life so much, from competitive snow boarding to living off the grid while still building new projects. Such an interesting and inspiring video.
it takes a special person to actually do it.
"We are energy making matter"
I had to raise my pint to that. This man knows what life is truly about: hard, fulfilling work, happiness and understanding.
Wow. Talk about a labour of love! Very cool!
Thank you...
The typical man-made structure is an affront to its surroundings. This blends in beautifully. Very nicely done.
This here is a guy who knows what he wants and knows how to get it, I’m have maximum respect for you!
Having a net worth of over 17 million doesn't hurt either.
Mike is an amazing human.
"Life is not exactly designed to be easy." Very wise guy. And incredible how multi-faceted he is.... designed and built his own (beautiful) house, maintains equipment and welds, and is a pro snowboarder to boot? Most people would be lucky to have a handful of these talents and experiences!
"life is suffering" It's the 1st Noble truth of Buddhism. Not saying he's not wise just not the first one to come up with it.
He goes from being a snowboarder, being tired of that...then learns to sell photography to support himself...that's evolution.....really inspiring.
The star that appears in shadow on his birthday is my favorite part! What a creative and awesome job!! Love love love it!
WOW! This house is a piece of art, a functional home, and is well integrated into the land and surrounding environment.
Fresh air, nature, freedom, no technology, no stress, what else could you ask for.
Internet.
This is the coolest house I’ve ever seen!
I like how he didn't try to simplify his life but instead embraced it and is one hundred percent devoted to it. Very humble and grounded outlook on life. This one man possess more qualities, traits and crafts than any ten people I know. Amazing home and great looking dog
... and great looking dog
😆
Harsh random diss to all ur friends lol
also being rich is a good thing if you want to live cheap.
Dog's gone.
Notice the absence of one thing in that utopia. A woman. Than may be why he finds such peace
I remember seeing him years ago up there in his cabin. His beautiful dog was still with him then. Such beautiful insight, ingenuity, and and genius. Really cool guy and awesome story!
i got sad when i learned that his dog passed away. a beautiful husky.
Hayes Riviere where does it say his dog had died....I must have missed that
he has his own chairlift. that dog was so cute.
It was a subtle reference when he shows the sandblasted window.
*There is so many clever design concepts in this house and the birthday star on the pentagon is legitimately brilliant. What a home*
Wow that’s so cool I love your house!
yep, looks literally cool. almost freezing!
This guy is a genius
It's wonderful, looks creative and cosy. Great light too. You've done a beautiful job. Love that you celebrate your self within your home.
This man's house is amazing. I never get tired of watching this video.
Steppen Wolf I watch it a few times a day
We all need to get back to this sort of stuff in any way we can. Amazing, and unique craftsmanship. I was impressed when he mentioned building things with the golden ratio in mind. This guys living the dream.
Watched this many times now. Really love the house. It’s architecture from the heart. This guy is a legend.
WOW WOW and WOW!!! Every video outdoes the last. This was just over the top Awesome. SO Inspiring. Great shots of everything. Camera work is always top-notch. Love all the off-the-grid videos. Dont stop :)
The way this man's brain works is artistry at its best.... everything he touches ..he puts his personal stamp on! You can't just go out and buy something like this or put a price tag on countless hours of hit & miss... if I had 10% of his skill and energy I would be a proud man.... I just loved it from every angle ... congrats on a way of life you're living and away from the 40+ hour grind.... I mean he has a chair lift outside his door ... his off road RV is also another extension of his artistry ... (dude stop it already) .. you're making the rest of us look really lazy and just plain regular ... here's to your next adventure because we all know by no means are you done yet.... well fn done ... you know I was just starting to feel good about myself and I ran into your RV vid... kidding but dam ... if this was a contest .. you win ..by a long shot!
I love how his house not only fit the environment on the outside, but also on the inside
This guy is a master craftsman. And as has been pointed out he is multi-skilled. Great work & thanks for sharing.
I love this human, so cool. Our poor society is so convinced that we need all these things. There was this great saying I herd " be careful of the things you own, they might end up owning you."
Where do you think he got the glass, chair lift, the welding station, battery pack, solar panels etc. etc.? He got this all from "our poor society."
I think he should have every right to pursue this as his dream. In many areas of civilization, this would not be allowed by not having permits, following building codes, etc. Blue states are very intrusive with these building permits and restrictions.
1990notch I've lived in both blue and red States and I'll take dealing with public building officials in blue states over homeowners association boards in red States any day. The real issues are urban versus rural attitudes towards property and building codes. I am just starting construction on my retirement dream "man cave" home- the Grouse. Half garage and half house. And it's being built in a very liberal blue state county. The project would never be approved in an urban or suburban areas. But in a rural area the rules are different. A 750 sq. ft. apartment built into a 1600 sq. ft. garage/workshop. One of the inspectors has been incredibly helpful and also obviously envious of my new place. Which I have invited him to check out and see. I have managed to do what I wanted and build a home that meets fire and building codes. And I will be able to insure it because of following the rules. Living and building in a rural area is the biggest determining factor as I see it.
I live in CA, a blue state and have rural property in another blue state. On the rural property, I can change a light bulb without a permit but just about everything else requires a permit, $$ and inspections. Many are non structural like alarm systems, sprinkler systems, etc., require permits. I just googled "states with highest HOA fees", the top 10 cities with the highest fees are all in CA, NY, HI, MA and FL. FL is a red state but the rest are blue!! CA has HOA's all over. I do agree with you for the need to have compliance to safe building standards for safety and insurance, etc. My first post was merely to point out that much of the way that he built this house would not be permissible in many areas. Try to create your own solar power system any way you please or mill your own lumber and see how that goes over in some of these strict localities. The trend towards more sustainable alternative housing may have an impact on changing what's allowed while still maintaining adherence to safe housing principles. We'll have to see. If you prefer blue state living, then great. To each his own.
1990notch No problem. I admit a strong bias against homeowners association because of a previous home. If it hadn't been so infuriating it would have been laughable. I started off on the wrong foot and went downhill from there!! LOL!!! I am sure the board were considering hiring off duty cops for security reasons after my visits to the board meetings. Definitely thankful to have moved on to another state. And I am sure they felt the same way....
I love how he melds glass and steel and rock and wood... so beautiful and warm!
this is better that 200 million $ + mansions
nah ill still take the mansion. cool house nonetheless
i'd take the 200mil mansion, sell it and buy 100 of these off grid cabins
@@JC-dc7eb sure you Will so ppl can see how cool an rich you are hahahaha
How do you come in contact with so many cool people?! This guy rules!
I think it's time for a Q&A video
Awesome question! I've always wonder that
Maggie Wilson yea I hope he answers
maybe about the book from the snowboarder, maybe there is an email inside? but also the publishing company has his dates, i am sure.
Maggie Wilson yea I have wondered that so many times too
Most beautiful cabin I ever saw. Your Blessed
You're*. Sorry I had to :)
Beate Moseidjord he is not blessed. He is f$£₺ing rich.
I used to live above the arctic circle in similar setup. Everyone will become richer for having an experience like this.
@@JPQuartered the Arctic circle is about 2/3 up Alaska and Canada
@@creeve401 Shush. Its probably the only thing in his life that lets him feel special. Like all the other people pedantically falling over this video.
amazing. thanks for building and thanks for sharing. inspired
Awesome vid, so stoked to have joined your journey on Patreon this week. Keep the great content coming.
Wow, that place is AMAZING, so blessed to have that, it looks so peaceful!!!!👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Not many homes have a petrified mammoth bone hot plate!
I have a pile of petrified buffalo poop. Does that count for anything? It didn't to the buffalo
@@robertgarland805 probably not but one day it might offset a carbon footprint or something. As far as dung goes that is top shelf :-)
That’s the coolest cabin I’ve ever seen!! Great job! Awesome use of stone and wood!!! Wow
This guy is living his dream. Cool
I just became ten times lazier watching this video . Going back to bed . Very cool !!
This guy is so humble and honest, I love him! "Live isn't designed to be easy, I hope everyone understands that in some form." I honestly feel like because of all the wealth in western countries we do forget this sometimes, and heartship can actually be very rewarding, like you said! Fantastic video.
Can definitely feel that he had a close relationship with his dog. Those dudes are closer than family sometimes
Seems like a humble and crafty guy. The cabinet he sandblasted with his dog on it is pretty cool. Definitely a beautiful spot to call home. Like the tunes playing aswell. Well done sir.
the tunes? royalty-free generic guitar chords? lmao
@@CodeProvider yeah dickbag....THE TUNES, however basic they are.
I like how everything overlaps seems cozy
Living the dream. Your passion for life is very inspiring. Thank You!
i cant express how much i actually love this..
Wow. Amazing.
Talk about a labor of love ? Wow ! Five years , but so beautiful !!
Coolist off-grid video ever! This guy has been able to convert his dream into a medium that we can all appreciate.
Love this guy, he’s got it right. He understands the good life.
really good episode!!!
That's awesome!!!
this dude can do a lot of good on a massive scale
Man! This tiny home is so nice and cozy. Good job
His house is amazing i must say. Im a architecture student and although i do not agree with his presumptions about the golden ratio, he came up with a amazing piece of architecture . All the placement , allocation of room, bedroom , kitchen are based in the real though that architects go through to plan a house. Im sure that if this guy submitted his house to any architecture prize, he would win.
Yeah, his confusion about the golden ratio was frustrating, but it's minor in the face of all his incredible work.
i will give you a short answer because its easier to find videos about it. But it's a ratio that can be found through fibonacci sequence. The sequence is a math equation that was observed in animals and nature that follows a geometric progression in wich every segment is the double of the segment before. The ratio is then defined by the intersections of this sequence. In a a4 paper, the ratio in in the thirds, wich is a simplification of a more complex division coming from the a0 paper, wich is 1mx1m
if i wasn't clear, i really recommend watching some videos about it. It's a common knowledge that everyone should have.
cr pk he probably related to The Modulor a concept developed by Le Corbusier, based on the golden ratio. Inasmuch as the proportions being evident in the human body, "own golden ratio" implies proportions of one's body to the surrounding space construct. Hence devisal of metrics of space based on own body size.

Nice Work Dylan.......Really dig What You Built! Wow...ok.......You are a Great Person who is Very Blessed.....Peace and Love Brutha!
l have watched this twice now over a space of several months, and it won't be the last time! At 76, I do not anticipate ever doing this myself, but I can still enjoy the concept and live it vicariously.
His connection to nature and his soul are so inspiring.
Wow, just wow!
beautiful soul and an amazing home!
Being close to nature and being off grid will assure you there is a deity simply by the serenity felt there...
This is the coolest thing I’ve ever seen
It looks so peaceful.....🍃🌿🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌿🍃you did a fine job.
So amazing! Thanks for posting this!
AMAZING! Thank you for sharing your home with us!!
You have the best, aesthetically, pleasing, off-grid site. I love it, love it, love it.
Great video, Awesome life.
SO AWESOME! Beautiful home.
One of the coolest builds I have seen. thank you for sharing this with me.
Wow! Absolutely stunning home!
What a cool fuckin dood
Literally, he is surrounded by ice and snow.
I love this channel so much :)
I have watched and really enjoyed loads of videos on CZcams and this is definitely first class and the workmanship is ace and it’s the only one I’ve ever seen built in this shape I absolutely love it so stay safe and love from Scotland 🏴👍
Best one yet
The birthday thing is a very cool idea, I love it
Wow what a pro!
Amazing. Just really wow.
The etching of his dog 💞so beautiful..
the star on our birthday is just amazing! what a place.
@PP Wieners sorry, auto-correct, should say, his.
Man these guys in these kinda videos always look like the happiest people in the world
Absolutely gorgeous!
Awesome build! This is what it’s all about. Perfectly Balanced and in tune with Nature.
Absolutely amazing!
Great video dude
"You are so much more in-tune with the weather..."
Yeah! No kidding! I watch the thermometer much
more than the clock.
Wonderful space, thank you for sharing.
Amazing. I too live semi off the grid in a cabin in Tn. Heating with wood, well water, etc. I love it. Everything he says is true.
mike is a very cool guy to hang out with..
The Ravageman Yes he is. I don't see him as often as I'd like.
The Ravageman this short conversation was straight from my middleschool english book
yes, because english is not my primary language..i hope youre okay with that
Imagine the night sky 😍
Totally living the total dream!! I have watched this several times, and I dream of this at night. Love this guy, his house, the way he thinks. 👍👏☺️
Dreams become reality pretty quick when you've got over 17 million in the bank lol
What a neat place! I love how nothing matches and everything has bends and curves and there aren't many straight lines except for appliances and such. Gives the place a lot of character. Plus, you can't beat that view!
This man is a natural designer!
Great home!
