Welcome to the coldest village on Earth where the temperature can hit -71.2C, mobiles don't work... but homes still have outside toilets.



On the left bank Indigitke in Russia, with only eight hundred inhabitants, the village Oymyakon the coldest inhabited place in the world. As the average temperature in January and fifty degrees Celsius below zero, it's no wonder that this place is not the owner of the title coldest village in the world.

The village doctor says that despite the absence of many foods, residents do not suffer from malnutrition because the milk of animals that grow very nutritious.

Unlike most of the planet, the villagers love snow and winter and most of them do not want to leave. It is interesting that the only rural school in the winter usually works fine. Students do not attend school only if the recorded temperature lower than  - 52 C.
