He's not trying to make his life harder... he is building it by himself the same way that some contractor would be doing it with perhaps 4-5 guys.

Although primitive, the video that you linked to is also based on previous technology/knowledge...

If you have all the knowledge, wouldn't you know both ways? Sure you might need to build a few tools with your knowledge before you start, but then you could build a city.
