  2.  @ICcreepers  He does not speak norwegian. With a norwegian father and german mother, they spoke english at home. A 1.5 hour movie following him through all season at his farm, made by a norwegain, is now running at norwegian TV, It was filmed in several stages about 2017-2020.

  3. One can wonder, but my guess is a place like Montana will never get overpopulated even though some areas will see quite a few newcommers. Overall the younger generations most likely will keep on gathering more in the bigger cities than moving out to rural areas

  4. He got very little stress in his life, physical activity, homecooked meals are things that is of good help, but guess the gens are to most important for the longivity

  8.  @fromSpringfield  I'm sure many friends and neighbours has offered to help organize things a bit better, I would too, and maybe some things have been done but falled back to normal again after not too long time) The conclusion has likely been he feels okay with how stuff are. Likely much stuff around of sentimental value to him, connected to family members

  9. Possible whale oil

  10. Regarding native Amerian it seems to be much talk about 'give us land, give us money, give us funding'. Are natives not allowed to start businesses, start a factory, manufacture something, employ people, create own wealth, be independent from support from others?

  12. that's true in many cases, and a part of humanity. When it comes to like here, small town Montana, imo locals don't care too much about whatever money the newcomers got or not, but feel frustration about the sharply rising property costs that comes along with new people moving in. On the other hand it can give opportunities like more business

  13. Yeah, I was surprized too hearing that. sounds a bit optimistic..Anyway, very happy for them if it happens

  14.  @sergf3624  Don't know what 'acting' you are refering to. They're just looking for some peace and quiet, found this off grid cab in a tiny village in the Alaskan wilderness. .

  16. Seems most local jobs is in relation with the railway and harbour. Quite a few likely have their job in Anchorage. Might be easier find a job in a large town nearby for a start, then get a job in this town later on. I'm not a local

  17. Seems pretty calm and down to earth. Someone not being a big Trump fan, is not automatically a troublemaker, even if you enjoy beliving that)

  18. The is likely more to the town than 1 girl throwing bottles. But a bit shocking experience I bet

  19. John spent the last ~2 years of his time at a retirement home in a town nearby, starting about the time of the making of this video, or a few months later. There he got care and had people around him. While still at his ranch, he had a neighbour couple that checked in on him, helped him out from time to time. John passed in August of 2024, at 97

  20. They mind their own business and do not bother their neighbours. Keep on crying Karen.

  21. No protesters setting things on fire, no drug dealers hanging on the street corners, no gang violence, no traffic jams, no stress, no mass shootings. Yeah, isn't that depressing and really terrible. Just people living in a place they like to, peace and quiet, working, talk to their neighbours.

  22. Nothing lasts forever. Natives vs cowboys/europeans, it was bound to happen, sooner or later, we can like it or not. Larger groups of people pushing smaller groups of people aside, part of life on Earth. If not Pres Jackson, someone else. Millions of people from a over-populated Europe pushing on, vs a 'handfull' of natives sitting on millions of acres of land.

  28. Even if there were kids it could be noen of them wanted to take over, one just never know. there are always someone out there interested, that's not a big worry I guess

  29. From some other interview with him lke 5 years ago it came forward that he was about to make some 'paperwork' with a local lawyer concerning that his land should continue being free for the public to visit, walking in the mountains, fishing. Most farms like his in the area have been bought up by 'city folks' and closed off for the public, used as private hunting/fish grounds. He got someone that he is uncle to, living quite far away in another state. The farm will likely be sold, but with some special conditons following it

  34. A lot of people do not have the need to belive in something 'above' in order to be able to live a fine life and find purpose. He lives where he loves to live, have found joy and meaning in his work, the land, the nature, music, and have many friends around. There are pluss and minuses with both living alone, and having own family.

  37.  @infinite_vortex  I agree, in many areas the new housing is very expencive. Developers are needed, but should more focus on affordable houseing many places

  38. Ever heard about 'summer residence'?

  39. He spends most of his time in a retirement home now in a town nearby, moved there in the autumn after Peter visited him in 2022. Guess he is at his farm now and then

  42. Did see a video with fram about 5 years ago were they showed him working with some local legal firm regarding the future of his property. He was very concerned about the property continuing being used for ranching purposes, and open for the public to go for a walk and such, as he has allowed, not being bought up by some millionares and closed off. Maybe there now are some restrictions concerning the property taking the market value down quite a bit the last few years from what it possble has been. I don't now the details, an I'm not local. No matter what, he for sure have paid quite a bit of taxes through the years. That's maybe where he has spent his money, not on much else)

  43. Yeah, the US had zero drug problems pre 2020. Belive me.

  46. Montana has a long time been a popular place for celebrities to visit, and making movies. John has most of his life been playing music at dances, social events in the area, and many visitors have seen/heard him

  47. People are different and find different ways to a happy life.

  48. In another story about him it is shown that he was in the process putting up some legal papers with the help of a local lawyer regarding his property. He is very concerned about it not ending up with some rich city people, closng it off for ranching, and for the public (he has allowed the public go for a walk, fishing as they wish), as with many other similar properties in the neighbourhood. He has been offered millions by developers, but not interested in selling) There will likely be some conditions regarding taking over the property, like use it for ranching and keep it open to the public. His sister got children, living in another state. Did not seem anyone of them would move to the ranch, will likely be sold out of the family.

  50. The shop is visisted during the video. about 80% lives in the building, other in other places. To try get more attention video creators often like to exaggregate a bit in titles. Anchorage is not too far away, possible 1 hour drive
