The “hi America” train lady stole our hearts and she’ll never even know it
I'm not even American, but felt that. Bless her little heart.
;-;
see our country wants us to believe all these other countries they want to steal from hate us, but if you watch any documentary where it's alone journalist traveling around meeting the people they always say they love us Americans, and our country, there is one done on Iran and the people time after time said America I love you.

Im guessing that no one caught that he was trying to reach for that bottle in the dark and missed. played it off by grabbing his hand.
The guy’s a legend lmao
I really lost it when he called him a Jew
I died when the Russian tried to trade him an orange slice for his wedding ring
😂😂 I see that has a fair trade ! 😂😂
Didn't even offer the whole orange.
@@majorevangelism 😂😂
Trade something.. The something was not the orange slice. He was just ready to eat it himself. Maybe he had an exstra left-right arm to trade :)
He even forget his left from right

They should jus make a series about this guy drunk in random places, I would literally watch every episode
Wes W fr 😂😂😂
Boi, he wouldn't come out in one piece.
Wes Watson?
Wes western ?
Check out Bald and Bankrupt. way more interesting, charismatic and entertaining.
My boi so drunk he forgot which hand was which. Lmfao
Actually, at 4:32 he has a ring on his right hand as well (maybe another one?). The russian host, being quick-witted, saw he also had a ring on his left hand and fucked his mind up. That's why he's so confused. That and the 5 liters of vodka in his body.
Your boy who hates Jews you mean? I guess that's Russia for you ;)
@@omfgroflma0 well I'm pretty sure Russian Orthodox wear the wedding ring on the right hand, but it's terrifying to think of that dumbass being married

@@iluvmyeski typical American.
Literally that whole episode was 2 guys arguing in Russian, about being a Jew.. on a train. Lol literally had nothing to do with the video subject matter, but entertaining as hell nevertheless.
Lol foreal
The word "literally" has lost practically all of its meaning through rampant misuse, as we see in Candis Watts's comment (and countless others on TH-cam).
@@jamessandy5873 And your rude attitude has been misused rampantly. Lmao which has then in turn, obviously, made "BE KIND" lose all it's meaning.. as you obviously don't know what that means. I have not one, but two teenage daughters. Age 16 & 17 years. They say that CONSTANTLY. I apparently picked it up subconsciously because I hadn't noticed that I even said it. But you're right. I won't say you were wrong in what you said. It sounds Completely rediculous. But you should be nice to people. Especially when you have no idea what they are going through. I had one of the worst tragedies of my life happen recently. I am not even thinking clearly. But it's cool. Some people are just mean for no reason. They are miserable themselves I guess. Idk cause I am miserable but I don't treat people mean or rude.
Its kind of like a filler episode. Its interesting though. It's like "behind the scenes" of the story
@@arturob5306 Lol it was very interesting. Weird but interesting. 😂 I was entertained. Lmao
2:20 when the woman says "hi America!" is so adorable!!!
5:13 Best moment of this whole thing

I can tell you from experience that you don't want to get into a fight with a drunken punk on a Russian train.
@@kva7922046 As soon as he showed the slightest aggression I would of mauled the fucking shit out of him. Show them some power from martial arts training and then his bitch ass would be mine for the entire journey. He would be so glad to have got off that train. I was bullied many times as a kid so my dad put me in boxing and then I did Karate for yrs. I fucking love bullies like this punk ass fucker.

He must be used to it at this point living in Russia.
Hes like Pftt Thats nothing compared to north korea, I eat this shit for breakfast

Aww the old lady that responded "thank you" when he said "I love you", and then she said "hi America! She is so cute. :)
this is literally a missing scene from a sitcom
This is like an episode from The Office but 10 times better somehow. I never laughed so hard in my life.
that was quite entertaining. The dude with the glasses tolerates that drunk boy so well lol
Monica R Sadly that’s probably because Jewish people aren’t really accepted in Russian culture, the last Czar was funding pogroms to kill the population only like 100 years ago. He definitely knows how to de-escalate a situation like that.
@@melodiclogic9904 If I'm not mistaken, didn't Alexander II forcibly conscript them into the army?
He is jew
1 slap only and glasses break in the middle of nowhere, knowing that makes u tolerate :))
Hai babe
This part has very little to do with the rest of this documentary, but it's so funny.
Max Power Russians don’t give a fuck about left hands or right hands. As long as they know that an open hands for holding a bottle, and a closed hands for hitting something.
it's my favorite part, though
Dude, we're twins.ill be Danny you be Arnold.
Yes yes yes *i love you*
You should see a few more 'brilliant' things
Who else is binge watching TH-cam during the Coronavirus lockdown?
Russian drunk: “Soon we’ll teach him something else to say”
lmao
This series is hilarious and depressing at the same time. All these people they meet are like characters in some kind of comedy sketch. The Adidas-wearing thugs. The mayonnaise-eating Korean. The 14 year old Russian police officer that just turns up and tags along for the ride. The ex-police chief who breaks them into the north Korean camps. And who could forget, Igor the fish. This makes me want to travel across Siberia just to experience a land in virtual anarchy, and the odd characters that live there.
Your comment is perfect. It really is like some black comedy film
Yes, thats why im learning russian for two years already, im now pretty ok and can hold a normal conversation. I cant wait for my next soviet adventure far away
@@Remy.- How difficult is it to learn enough Russian to have conversations?
Get a fixer or someone who lives there you can trust

What's America ?
The United States of America (USA), commonly known as the United States (U.S. or US) or America, is a country composed of 50 states, a federal district, five major self-governing territories, and various possessions.[f] At 3.8 million square miles (9.8 million km2), the United States is the world's third or fourth largest country by total area[g] and slightly smaller than the entire continent of Europe's 3.9 million square miles (10.1 million km2). With a population of over 327 million people, the U.S. is the third most populous country. The capital is Washington, D.C., and the largest city by population is New York. Forty-eight states and the capital's federal district are contiguous in North America between Canada and Mexico. The State of Alaska is in the northwest corner of North America, bordered by Canada to the east and across the Bering Strait from Russia to the west. The State of Hawaii is an archipelago in the mid-Pacific Ocean. The U.S. territories are scattered about the Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean Sea, stretching across nine official time zones. The extremely diverse geography, climate, and wildlife of the United States make it one of the world's 17 megadiverse countries.[19]
Paleo-Indians migrated from Siberia to the North American mainland at least 12,000 years ago.[20] European colonization began in the 16th century. The United States emerged from the thirteen British colonies established along the East Coast. Numerous disputes between Great Britain and the colonies following the French and Indian War led to the American Revolution, which began in 1775, and the subsequent Declaration of Independence in 1776. The war ended in 1783 with the United States becoming the first country to gain independence from a European power.[21] The current constitution was adopted in 1788, with the first ten amendments, collectively named the Bill of Rights, being ratified in 1791 to guarantee many fundamental civil liberties. The United States embarked on a vigorous expansion across North America throughout the 19th century, acquiring new territories,[22] displacing Native American tribes, and gradually admitting new states until it spanned the continent by 1848.[22] During the second half of the 19th century, the Civil War led to the abolition of slavery.[23][24] By the end of the century, the United States had extended into the Pacific Ocean,[25] and its economy, driven in large part by the Industrial Revolution, began to soar.[26] The Spanish-American War and World War I confirmed the country's status as a global military power. The United States emerged from World War II as a global superpower, the first country to develop nuclear weapons, the only country to use them in warfare, and a permanent member of the United Nations Security Council. During the Cold War, the United States and the Soviet Union competed in the Space Race, culminating with the 1969 Moon landing. The end of the Cold War and the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991 left the United States as the world's sole superpower.[27]
The United States is the world's oldest surviving federation. It is a federal republic and a representative democracy, "in which majority rule is tempered by minority rights protected by law".[28] The United States is a founding member of the United Nations, World Bank, International Monetary Fund, Organization of American States (OAS), and other international organizations. The United States is a highly developed country, with the world's largest economy by nominal GDP and second-largest economy by PPP, accounting for approximately a quarter of global GDP.[29] The U.S. economy is largely post-industrial, characterized by the dominance of services and knowledge-based activities, although the manufacturing sector remains the second-largest in the world.[30] The United States is the world's largest importer and the second largest exporter of goods, by value.[31][32] Although its population is only 4.3% of the world total,[33] the U.S. holds 33% of the total wealth in the world, the largest share of global wealth concentrated in a single country.[34] The United States ranks among the highest nations in several measures of socioeconomic performance, including human development, per capita GDP, and productivity per person,[35] while experiencing a substantial amount of income and wealth inequality. The United States is the foremost military power in the world, making up a third of global military spending,[36] and is a leading political, cultural, and scientific force internationally.[37]

"I am also Jew"
He actually said 'You're a jew telling a jew how to behave''. The translation is incorrect
This was so chaotic I loved every minute of it lmaooo
I have honest to god watched 4:30 to the end of the video 15 times just because of that 17-year-old drunk lad. My entire quarantine has been made, thank you.
"Bro you're a Jew, telling me to behave?" LOL
@PHX Actually that was the meaning I took from the context of the situation anyway, since I thought I heard the word for "jew" used twice. I know extremely little Russian, but I am able to pick out a handful of words - just barely enough to piece together the gist of a sentence. I often have to hear the sentence more than once, though.
@Uppity Sombitch Pretty sure he didn't give a shit about what you had to say, Otherwise he would've replied. Get the memo?
