People didn't actually live in caves, for the reason that caves are crappy to live in. (The video has English subtitles.)

a cave man was cave in places where were caves

It all sounds so silly in translation, but it makes perfect sense. Cave people lived in caves, but only in places that had caves otherwise they were just man.

They didn't live in those, either. Just sheltered from rain, and did rituals in there.

Living in a cave is a sure way to get arthritis.

I wouldn't go so far as to make such absolute claims. We have many historic and contemporary instances of peoples living in caves, so it's certainly achievable.

I've never lived in a cave and I have arthritis.

Well, you can live in a cave now. It'll still be uncomfortable as heck, however.

Just like living in my home!
