Alone in the Past

This is a Russian language documentary of a man who attempted living in conditions of a 10th century medieval village that would've possibly existed in what is today Russia. There are decent English subtitles.

I think the main takeaway I've learned is the over abundance of carbs in the diet as practiced by him and a lack of adequate amounts of meat and perhaps vitamins/minerals. It is possible the psychological hardships endured may have been due to dietary consequences.

Those who enjoy wilderness/primitive living without modern amenities may find some usefulness in this video. Also a reminder how some who long for the collapse of civilization, modern agriculture, and law/order, to start finally using their bunkers, supplies, and practice skills and self defense, may be a bit "romantic" to say the least. It will not be a cakewalk to be catapulted into the Middle Ages. Just IMHO...
