Summer doesn’t just bring lots of sunshine, it also brings lots of rain, here are few pictures of a flooding that happened in Rostov on Don...
As the news come from Russia today, that a high ranking regional police boss went on trial for selling a police station building to some businessmen (!!!) and then spent the money on himself, we have this story. If the pictures you are about to see, were to come from Europe or America, the cop seen on them would definitely lose his job, and most likely end up in jail for accepting a bribe. Well, unfortunately these pictures come from Russia, where cops take bribes everywhere, all the time, this is just another example (remember this one???)…
On May 17, 1984 a spark from a cigarette had led to an explosion on a naval base in Severomorsk. In a very short time, half of the fleet’s storage of strategic rockets, torpedoes and mines had been destroyed. Reportedly there were two injuries, as well as the huge panic on the streets of the city, that was caused by this fiery inferno…
Pictures from the private archive of the pilot of the Su-25 which he flew in the Afghanistan during its war with Russia…
We have already told you about a famous chess player, and the leader of Russian opposition, Garry Kasparov. When making one of his speeches, in front of the media someone not very smart decided to make fun of the whole thing and fly a vibrator across the room. This link is available via Youtube, and probably will not be shown on the government controlled Russian TV stations, since the government sees Kasparov’s views and opinions as a big taboo, which after years of bias could destroy a “fragile & pro-government” minds of the Russian public. Ironically Kasparov had gotten the last laugh saying that “This is the face of the current Russian government”…
To get the idea of who Garry Kasparov is, you can take a look at one of his TV appearances before the 2008 Russian “Election”…
Few friends in Russia decided to drive to one’s vocation house to have some barbecue. When they began making it, dry grass had caught fire, and so did the man’s brand new Audi A4 2.0 with DTM package…
Yes it’s another priceless video of the Russian “politician” Vladimir Girinovsky. Yes, you’ve already seen him in his public rants, you’ve seen what he did in the presidential debates. Recently we shown you the only video known to date where he actually got a taste of his own medicine, and was made to look like complete ass. Now here is another video from Girinovsky’s private archive. In this video he travels on a train in Russia, and shoots at crows from the moving train! If you thought this was bad, by the end of the video he passes by people’s gardens and shoots at their chickens, and dogs. If this was American or European politician, similar behavior would be on the news for days, before the politician would submit his resignation.
In Russia they do things different, since Russian media is now busy questioning whether the man you can see on the video was indeed Vladmir Girinovsky…
St. Petersburg officials want foreign tourists to visit their museums, but there are few things that those city officials would rather hide from the foreign tourists. We’ve already shown you the surprisingly horrible beaches of St. Petersburg. Now here is a picture that shows you how those “bad beaches” are formed. You’d have to be pretty crazy and brave to swim in St. Petersburg waters especially after seeing how much glass will end up there this summer…

When people have an IQ of a potato they drive cars around on top of each other without doing anything to secure them in place, here is a moron from Russia who had done that.
One guy had ordered a brand new laptop from a company based in Samara. When he received his long awaited package in Moscow, here is what he found inside…

In the recent Presidential elections, people who clearly disagreed with the official government policy, or were simply bored, decided to draw and write messages on ballots before submitting them. I’ve translated most of the ballot’s messages into English, but some of them will only make sense in Russian.
“No to election without selection!”

St. Petersburg might be called the “cultural capital of Russia”, a name it definitely deserves, but you do have to keep in mind, that when it comes to beaches or swimming areas in general there really isn’t that much “culture” left…
As you can see from this picture, when you are a member of Russian police, you don’t have to wait for the train to pass like everyone else (notice the sirens are off so it wasn’t an emergency either…) If it was European or American police on the picture, this would most likely make it to the news and few people could lose their job over it, but this is Russia - cops are untouchable here…

We already made a post about arrogant Russian drivers here. Sadly we now have another one. As you can see from this video, one guy in a Lada (with TAXI sign on it) decided to drift on a busy highway, of course being an arrogant bastard he didn’t care about other cars, snow on the road, or the truck carrying gas which can be seen at the end of the video…
