I think his videos just highlight how important pottery was as an invention. Being able to make waterproof durable and lasting containers really is one of the biggest innovations in human history.
I can't believe this man has a billion views on his channel and has never spoken a word. This is genuinely some of the best content on the internet. Props....
The guy that inspired me to find my first piece of raw clay! Now I make majority of my income through pottery. Can't wait to start making this, thank you John
I've seen people try making pottery for the first time, but it wasn't until after I saw you use a pottery wheel that I realized how impressive the ones you made
It's so cool seeing all the different pieces from old projects. The two that stood out to me the most were the iron knife and the large spool of rope. Both from different videos. You also inspired me to learn how to make clay out in nature years ago.
I like your channel it always amazes me how well you show humanity’s history and progression through technology. Imagine how happy our ancestors were when they made the first ceramic pot to store and transport water and food just like you’ve shown here. Welcome back it’s been too long 🎉
I love seeing the older tools at work (the rope, the iron blade) - it's so interesting to see how you've built on stuff you've already made, it gives such perspective on how much work actually goes into a given object!
John Plant is one of the only KZcliprs that I actually get excited for when he uploads. Me and my son love watching your videos together Mr. Plant. Thank you for the educational entertainment. Never stop being a free spirit.
I love and appreciate that he always makes sure to leave the 'fire by friction' part in and shows it all uninterrupted. We've seen it so many times by now and yet it's still the most hypnotizing and meditative thing to watch.
Think this is my favourite channel on KZclip now. His dedication, passion, not to mention physical hard work that goes into making these videoes. Really inspiring!
I can't tell you enough how cozy watching Primitive Technology is, especially during a weekend morning while drinking my coffee. It just gives you that sane, non-sugar filled calm energy that you'd otherwise not get from most other videos. It kind of just aligns you slowly for takeoff for the day. I think I've built this fun association while watching Survivorman cozied up in my bed during winter afternoons back in the day.
Brilliant. The ability to leave the pot to dry on the wheel without removing it while wet is probably a game-changer. I wonder - if we look at old dig sites and discover that ancient humans came up with this same tech, but we didn't know what we were looking at initially. Exploratory archaeology :)
Can't we all just appreciate how many hours that flew by in makeing all these "old" tools, rope, knife, bricks and the spinning wheel. Facinating how you progressed! I'm so happy your back!
This man is literally one of the best things that happened to KZclip

I love how even after like 7+ years he still shows and creates his fires by hand true dedication

one of my favourite videos you've done is the one where you grew sweet potatoes, it would be great to see more videos about agriculture :)
I love the sounds. All of them. The fire, the breaking sticks, the pottery, the mud, the clink clink, the birds
"Now the table has turned" 💀 John, that was amazing.

You have inspired me try ceramics so I’ve joined a beginners class and it has been so rewarding! Cannot recommend it enough!

Amazing, as always, only one thing: a thicker shaft will allow you to use also a sort of tool (mounted on a little tower) for doing turned pottery
