I Traveled Solo In The Deadliest Region of Russia

- In this video I'm continuing my crossing by land of the Kolyma region, en route from Yakutsk to Magadan.
Join me on this adventure from Ust-Nera, in the most remote part of Siberia, to Susuman, in a village that is even more remote, in the legendary Oblast of Magadan. The road that we are traveling on is, obviously, the legendary Kolyma Highway!
Thanks to @onzekereguy for helping me out with the soundtrack for parts of this video.

The Kolyma Highway is considered the most dangerous road in Russia for a variety of reasons. The area is essentially lawless, undeveloped, barely populated, and unbelievably remote. Just getting to either terminus at Magadan or Yakutsk is an adventure in itself - travelling along the road makes this look like buying a bus fare in comparison. Every year dozens of people die in the region from drowning, freezing, car accidents, starvation, tick-borne encephalitis, alcohol poisoning, fires, crime, wild animals, or just disappear.

Construction of the Kolyma Highway was ordered by Stalin in 1932. Construction was to be carried out by the slaves and political prisoners of the many gulags scattered around the region of the Kolyma. That is how Ust-Nera was originally founded in 1935 - it was to be a settlement for the prisoners and the people involved in the construction of the road from Yakutsk to Magadan.
You will hear it confirmed in the video that it was indeed the prisoners of the gulag who built this road. The road is treated as a memorial, as the bones of the estimated 250,000-1,000,000 victims who died while constructing it were laid beneath or around the road. As the road is built on permafrost, interment into the fabric of the road was deemed more practical than digging new holes to bury the bodies of the dead. This is why the Kolyma Highway has now the very creepy honour of being colloquially referred to as "The Road of Bones". Because it was literally built on the bones of the people who died while building it!

Mi spiace toglierti il titolo, ma mi sa che sia Dino Lanzaretti che Lorenzo Barone ti hanno preceduto nella sperduta ust-nera 😅

Why did you have to hold the brakes on the car? Its a manual you can just park it in gear my handbrake never worked for my manual.
edit: sorry im an idiot i just realized its probably cold AF so the guy didnt want to turn the car off to park it in gear.
It's honestly a credit to the people that keep these cities and towns running despite these extremely harsh conditions. The mental and physical toughness of the locals is like granite.
“God knows how many hours”
“I only know the road”
😂😂😂😂😂😂
This is the most underrated youtube channel ever, you have great content
🙆🏻♀️🤔 🏔️you know there is a small amount of people in Alaska in America. Who originally came from Russia. And they speak a somewhat different version of the Russian language. Be nice if you will visit them and vlog with them.
Please?
I was reading about the Delaware Indians (Lenape) and it was thought that they (my tribe) was descendants from those that crossed over from Russia.
@@lanceroark6386i think the theory goes that maybe all of the ancestors of the natives in America and south America. Came through a land Link with Russia.
Dave - You hit the jackpot just randomly getting this Legend of a driver. I'm going to have to watch this video at least 2-3 more times!
I thought the driver was a complete legend-a
@11:37 the tractors being transported on the trailer have their engines running 😬 just shows how cold it it
That ending would make me worried about you if I didn't know it was recorded last winter. :-))
Davide, you are just simply AWESOME!!!!! Thank you so much for your videos!!! Greetings from Finland! If ever you choose to visit my country for whatever reason, contact me and you have 3 separate places to live in, one of them being a typical Finnish summerhouse by a lake with sauna 😊 Forgot, i love and adore Italy, have been there for more than 20 times!😊
Dude send a DM on Instagram, I've got all sorts of dream to visit the northern part of Finland. I imagine it's like Russia but more expensive
@@DaveLegenda I can't wait! At this time, you're my only source of Soviet Travel Adventures!
Great content! Since you can’t wander around Ruzzia anymore maybe explore Central Asia. Fascinating place that most people know little about and your Russian language skills would help greatly. I always enjoyed my trips to Russia. Good, honest hard working people. The government…..
I'm literally going to Kazakhstan next week
@18:45 note how the building is raised off the ground for insulation 😎 just like Antarctica
Great video Dave, from a fellow Italian!! I really love your videos! Complimenti!!!
You are really underrated! I really hope the algorithm will finally bless you. You deserve a million subs!
What a awesome ride
Dave we love you, go on!
Grande. Bravo.
Glad that your videos are updated more regularly. Like and subscribe. Your videos are interesting.
Even though the one Hotel Town had high price you paid same as a local Russian……Look forward to hear total travel fare Yakutsk-Magadan…I’m planning on doing in a tour next Winter…….
💪
Loving this journey
Note the extra padding on the roof for insulation
Hi, mystery recapped here :D
Давидик, какое следующее направление в твоих планах? Намекни пожалуйста. :) В Инсте у тебя Эстония. Что-то про Эстонию готовишь?
3:50 so was it you that fell face down in the snow here, or..?
Would love to see Dave vlog USA/Canada then South America.
I dunno. I like this channel because he takes us to the far reaching parts of russia. I don't want him to be a globetrotter showing uninteresting places like USA
He should do Alaska. I think that would be interesting 🤔.
I know how hard is to blog or use any gadget
The good news is, in these conditions, you are - voluntarily - wearing a mask 😷😂🤣
I know you re just spelling колыма, but you sound like that indian guy who had ripped off some dude's heart in indiana jones movie😄
Kali-ma! Kali-ma!🫀🫀🫀
in ust nera one polish youtuber witch hichhike to magadan been almost stabbed by some drunk man
Notevole il parco giochi a 5:09...
You should turn the camera to what you see more often instead that to your self. just saying.
