Well, this is obviously not a “Screwed up Russian Wedding“, but it turned out screwed up nevertheless…
We’ve already covered some of the Ilyushin aircrafts on our site, now here is something about the Ilyushin-18 that first flew in 1957, and is still used today by some Russian and European carriers. In this video a cargo Ilyushin-18 was trying to take off from an Angolan airstrip, however after blowing a tire the pilots decided to abort the take off. After emergency breaking was applied, the breaks had overheated and caught fire…
We already did a big gallery about the Bad Parking in Russia, and recently we have shown you a new example of selfish parking. This story comes to us from Ukraine, where a beginner female driver had parked her car right in the middle of the streetcar tracks…

Autonomous republic of Crimea is located on a Northern coast of Black Sea, in Ukraine. The reason we even bother showing it to you here, is because we had recently made a decision to write about interesting things happening outside Russia & the fact that this place is desperately gorgeous just makes it a no brainer…

This song is not Russian, but its lyrics will reach deep into the soul of anyone who speaks the Russian language…

We just showed you how they collect cucumbers in Belarus, here is how some people dance there…

The farmers from Belarus had found a perfect solution to this problem, they fixed up this moving bed on which people can lay and pick up cucumbers at the same time - so no more sore backs, brilliant!!!

Here is another post that has nothing to do with Russia. Yep, it’s from Ukrainian city called Kharkov, where one nightclub decided to create some PR for itself. They used all of the airport inventory they could get their hands on, and drove around Kharkov…

Here are the incredible pictures from a New Afon Cave (Novoafonskaya cave) from Abkhazia. This cave is one of the largest and deepest caves in the world…
Breaking the rules of this site once again, we are posting a video from Ukraine. A driver in the video was stopped by police because he was going 85mp/h. Perhaps police were ready to receive a big bribe, instead they got cursed out by a general who simply refused to show them his driver’s license, and drove off…
We already had shown you Bugatti Veyron in Moscow, (part 2). Recently one had been spotted in Minsk, the capital of Belarus. When the car costs 1.2 million euros, and simple things such as gear knob costs $8.500, it’s nice to see that someone can afford one…

Here is Vladimir Putin on a state visit to Ukraine. After Ukrainian President Victor Yushchenko got poisoned there, it’s no surprise that Vladimir Putin doesn’t want to try local Ukrainian treats, although his chief of staff at the time (Russia’s next president) Michael Medvedev, doesn’t seem to mind taking food from Victor Yanukovich…
We’ve already shown you the morons on the Russian roads, now here is a clip from Ukraine. Guys were driving their old Zaporozhets at 90km/h (50mph) on an empty country road when they crashed, luckily they weren’t badly hurt, but it still should teach them a lesson…
