Hello, it is the legendary Artur here, it was a really cool experience and I did not see it coming, thank you Benjamin and I hope you enjoyed your time here in Estonia! :) and btw I am not Artur Rehi 😅
Most famous Artur in Estonia is singer Artur Rinne. Look in TH-cam. Artur Rinne Narva Valss, Narva Vanalinn He was in prison on Stalin time because he made joke on his concert against Soviet power. His roots from Narva. Maybe in future is Artur Rehi same famous.

@@ΓιώργοςΓλήνης Yes, Tondi is just residential area about 7 min. from city center. Has privet homes and some apartment building mixed in. There’s nothing to see...people live there
Bald, you have been such a gift during the pandemic, opening up the world to so many of us locked into our small world. Thanks for reminding us there's so much out there!

Near the lighthouse, he was a few hundred metres from the stairs down from the cliff, and down there should be damn amazing ice cascades. In Soviet time, Paldiski hosted around 30 000 marines, the "civil" population (mostly the navy officers and their families) being around 8000. Most of the ruins of the barracks have been demolished, right after the Soviets left some area was like a field of ruins there. And, the so-called "Pentagon of Paldiski" was the largest building in Estonia (even bigger than the structure where Bald hurt himself), it has been demolished as well. The railway station building in Paldiski is from 1871, being one of 2 oldest surviving railway stations in Estonia.
Showed your video today to my 10th grade students (I'm an English teacher), turns out they've spotted your bright green hat out of the window, when you passed by our school in Paldiski. I think they'd have loved to meet you even for a moment. :) Come again, when everything's open (and probably not freezing temperatures)!
Really?! Haha I remember your lovely school on the edge of town, in fact a couple of your students pointed me in the direction of the lighthouse. Would have been nice if they’d told me it was closed : ))) Would love to visit in the summer! Thanks for the message!
Tarto is great and if possible i suggest you drive down to valmiera in latvia, the border region is full of interesting sites and the best beer in the world.
Dont tell your recruiter anything bad. Join the army and hate your life. I did and I was the greatest feeling ever to get out after 3 1/2 years. It's been 19 months and I still remeber getting my dd214

We knew Bald was coming, so we closed everything for a week. Estonians are most introvert, nonsocial nation on planet. Having a youtuber here, is everyones biggest nightmare. The biggest piece of courage we can hope for is some woman silently talking across the street that her alleged son Arthur is a fan of Balds, saying the truth that she was the fan herself, would be too bold for any Estonian. Usually we just walk on the street with a beer in freezing cold and drink our sorrow away and if someone asks any question, we just mumble something, cause that's probably 1st time and last time someone has asked us anything and we don't remember the right words anymore.

I've loved discovering old stuff just within cycling distance of my home in Tallinn as a kid. something amazing about riding 15 minutes into a direction and coming across houses that are 50-60 years old with soviet posters on the walls or climbing a water purification tower and looking down at the gushing currents or going into old bunkers. Shame these things are getting shut down now. But then again it is a bit of an eyesore sometimes ...

That was such a great insight on Lilya 4-ever! I loved that movie and I never knew that they filmed those parts in Estonia. I recommend the film to you guys if you haven't but like he said, it is a bit hard hitting.
Lukas Moodysson's film are all a bit off the wall. Saw Show Me Love at the Duke of York's (Brighton) and was hooked. I went back and saw the 2nd showing that same day. t.A.T.u. got me interested in Russia and USSR. They are on the Lilya soundtrack too.

@@dcarbs2979 Well, if to go to the details - the (more or less) authentic part of the movie is what happened in Sweden (based on writings found after the girl committed suicide). The story filmed in Paldiski is mostly representing the director's vision, including that the whole character of her little friend is fictive. Paldiski was chosen, as an extreme location - the whole town as a whole was previously a Soviet naval base, and when the Soviet Union collapsed, it still took 3 years, before the then already Russian army left the place. During these 3 years, most of the buildings were abandoned and looted, and, mostly just retired people remained in town (as everyone in town was connected to the Soviet navy). Due to the Paldiski's favorable location (close to Tallinn and good road connections), it slowly recovered as a civil town, with the traces still being seen, some similar Soviet military towns in the Baltics with less favorable location were abandoned completely.

Wow, I just finished watching Lilja 4-Ever, tuff movie to watch at times, but very well acted, especially the acting done with Lilja and Volodja. I have been watching your videos for a long time and I would wonder at times when your in those forgotten towns just how do the young people deal with living in those towns, I'm sure some of what goes on in the movie does happen at times, so sad to think that it does, and actually most of the people you do seem to run across are elderly. Thank you for doing your videos, because of them it made me feel like I really understood there situation a lot better while watching the film.

It started with ''Bloody Paldiski'' when the pub was closed.
And then the lighthouse ending made it genius.
Incredible how fast this channel is growing! Cash cow 👍
Good for him !!
@@250sabre I agree, another revenue stream doesn’t hurt anyone!
I love your videos so much Bald! Been watching you for a few years now, wish to meet you one day. I never thought you would come to my hometown Tallinn.
This is my old home town. I wouldn't recommend walking around there at night, lots of trouble around there but it was really nice seeing you go through Paldiski. It's much more worth visiting in summer.
Plot twist : the guy with the beer was on his way back from the light house drinking his sorrows that it was closed
It's an endless cycle... Bald will get a bottle of beer somewhere and then shake some traveler's hand on the way back.
Bald : “Check it out!”
Me looking at things i never even cared about : 🤩
"Nobody has good memories from Paldiski" - Me, an estonian
I have amazing memories from summer camp.
Are you Artur?
Only thing I know about the damn place is that there is nuclear waste there and a lot of parties.
@@sebastianjohansen2142 now I want to party in Paldiski, the rural, fucked up Towns always have the best parties.
@@olfetyek449 yea and you can drive circles in the bus to tallinn for faster recovery from the hangover.
Another great video. I’m so glad I found your second channel!
Sorry your dreams of climbing the lighthouse were dashed though.
I could not believe you didn't jump the fence, wouldn't have been your first tress passing event. Good video, and God bless.
This man is a legend.
I used to live in Tallinn. These videos are really making me miss Estonia :((
nobody in the history of ths "rkiosk" had ever asked for "do you have babushkas secrets" ever, she must of thought ur trollin :D
His accent is just terrible! Especially how he is pronouncing Estonian, but also Russian.
@@svilponis How dare you suggest that "jaam" is not pronounced "dcham" 😆
@@taekatanahu635 I was talking about the "babushkas secrets" . I know that B&B likes to read it, but even for me it was not clear right from the start, what he was asking from the poor R-Kiosk seller. Imagine, if someone asks "face and cheeps" instead of "fish and chips" in London!
@@svilponis It’s not his first language.
@@svilponis omg I just cant imagine such a sick and vile situation, where a person has an accent. you have a major point!
Excellent ...Being recognized by the MOM... You showed real class ..that was nice...OH ,,, finally a pretty lady...thanks...Were following you in Buffalo n.y...
great job Ben...thanks..
Wow, I just finished watching Lilja 4-Ever, tuff movie to watch at times, but very well acted, especially the acting done with Lilja and Volodja. I have been watching your videos for a long time and I would wonder at times when your in those forgotten towns just how do the young people deal with living in those towns, I'm sure some of what goes on in the movie does happen at times, so sad to think that it does, and actually most of the people you do seem to run across are elderly. Thank you for doing your videos, because of them it made me feel like I really understood there situation a lot better while watching the film. If you have any other recommendation for good flicks like that please post if you don't mind.
Nice documentary from Tallinn is film Jaanipäev in bonistik channel.
There is Õismäe 1978. Jaanipäev is midsummer and most important holiday in summer. Its villages holiday and in this film can see how it changes in commieblock environment.
@@kulnokaiklem Thank you, it will be my next film to watch.
Lilya 4-Ever is a brutal masterpiece, watched it over a decade ago and it will forever be burnt into my soul.
I was about to sleep and then bald uploads a video. Best feeling ever 😂😂
Same. I was considering a nap but this video shook me out of that idea!
Poldiski: “At least we’re not Tondi.”
Them subscribers are coming up quick. Two channels sales subscribers double the $$$$ love it brother
Oh man thats really cool you got to see the setting for Lilya 4 Ever. That film absolutely broke my heart, loved it. Cant wait for more daily Bald!
Советую Класс 2007 в Таллинне снято. Илмар Рааг режиссер.
И Последняя Реликвия на i-cat Kong канале.
@@kulnokaiklem Да тоже посмотрел Класс. Неплохой, а до сих пор только фильм про school shooting я увидел.
Я буду смотреть последняя реликвия, спасибо за рекомендация!
Прости за ошибки, русский второй язык)

Can’t wait to get my Bald and Bankrupt Tondi special merch when it’s available 😍😍😍
"Some military boat" on 7:00 is the "Aurora" the most famous cruiser in the Soviet naval history.
You could tell that from a faded rock? I'm impressed
@@CSA1861 As well as you recognize Liberty Statue shape or Eiffel tower silhouette
Yeah but he’s interesting
Babushka's secrets magazine: * exists *
Normal people: meh, just another magazine
Bald: THE SACRED TEXTS !
