In April 2013, Kulakov listed his favorite experiment as "How to Peel an Egg Russian Way!" These days, he can happily chow down on a hardboiled egg and not have to fight for it, but apparently that wasn't always the case. In a 2016 Q&A video, Kulakov revealed he has "a lot" of brothers and sisters: two brothers, three sisters, one half-brother, and one half-sister, to be exact. 

"Growing up, I was never bored," he admits. In fact, his childhood home sounds like something of a madhouse: "It was never, never quiet," he says, and that's why he's now blessed with the ability to sleep in extremely loud situations. 

Growing up poor, Kulakov claims, was actually "pretty awesome," since everybody had to learn how to think on their feet. Every day, the kids would have to split their treats amongst themselves — the cakes, the cookies, the candy bars. Stakes were high: "If you split it unfair, one piece is way bigger than the other one ... I get the bigger piece." To sum up, he says: "I never regret having a big family."

Despite (or because of) all the brothers and sisters, Kulakov is still quite eager to have his own kids. "I really, really want lots of kids," he says, because kids are "fun" and they "keep you young." He's most looking forward to teaching his kids how to swim.
