God is very powerful and has saved me from a sure death a few times. I don't know how I'm still alive but I am. It's not just luck, I have very bad luck . The only way I can explain it , is through my belief in my God.
At the time I was a boy and though that "this is the most dangerous job, on and off the Earth". Even now, decades later, I look at the technology back then, and still think that its a wonder so many actually survived. Hero's all.
Excellent video with the great space historians providing insights and highly accurate information. Volynov is 88 years old as of this writing. A brave man indeed!
First time I've ever heard of this and it's just beyond belief. Deep snow?! WTF, it's not about someone falling from the second floor of some building ...
Okay but to me its more impressive he survived entry into the atmosphere and finding a cabin rather than surviving the impact. people have been reported to survive plane crashes and the TA with a parachute probably would have been slower than a falling plane. i read somewhere our bodies are surprisingly resistant to these types of things. albeit the entire situation is a wtf moment for sure !!
WOW! In all of my years of paying attention to "space stuff" in general, I had never heard about this little adventure. Others, below, asked how he found the cabin; I want to know how he walked that far with an extra heavy load in the seat of his suit!!!
Never heard of this ever, and when they said January 1969 and no two space craft docked together in history that was wrong. Sounds like another made up Soviet story. Since we just had Apollo 8 return safely from the moon a month prior the Soviet union probably launched an unmanned Soyuz and the Cosmonaut was waiting in the cabin. Or the Russians watched Capricorn One.
Well he did have the most rugged life support gear, a spacesuit. Cosmonauts have been made to do all kinds of space stunt dummies action, they actually achieve more accomplishments then the western espionage secrecy is still slowly leaking records of the USSR. The USA was only the first to safely round trip to the Moon in public, all the cosmonauts got was THESE type of *public* failures. The USSR cosmonauts may have reached Mars orbit at this time, also crazy enough to enter Jupitor + reached the moons of Saturn, before *Defcon* forsaken links with the earthly Iron Giant. There is SOME close to debunk truth of this secrecy on Soviet Union potential work in space in the final times, in these YT links.. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-uuh0WkHjMYY.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-s6fWUA6_odc.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-UEmlOjKmL68.html
My mom used to say, “We really don’t know how many they lost in space “. Including animals. Gets me so angry when people say we never went to the moon. It was so exciting for me as a kid.
@@ssherrierable because Nixon cut the budget for NASA. Our whole reason for going to the moon was because Russia was already ahead of us and we couldn’t allow that. It sounds silly now, but back then we were in this feverish race to show Russia we could do anything they could do and better. Then they became friendlier to us after that. And now… they are acting like a menace again. War is so stupid.
That would have been my worst nightmare if I was Neil Armstrong and Buzz on the moon. The firing mechanism not firing when they had to leave the Moon. Just imagine if it didn't jettison up after firing. Left on the moon to perish. Brave men from both countries. Respect. 👏☘️
Yep - Nixon even had a prepared speech just in case they were unable to return. You can look it up and read it if you're curious. It's referred to as the Safire Memo.
I was air force,met Chuck Yeager, who broke sound barrier,as met him at a royal air force base I was station at a tac fighter a- 10 base when we bombed kadafy in libya.i had a near miss,as he shot a airliner out of the sky w americans on I was suppose to be on when in greece.i met a Tuskegee airman 2003x when serving after 911.i knew pilots who were in my wing I knew personally who worked at nasa.too bad they took a different direction with SpaceX etc.been to johnson space center as went for training for united airlines in tx. But these russian(comrads) cosmonauts are amazing as we still work with them today,but we barely hear about chinas astronauts as we have has a ( space race against them for some time)
My older brother was a career member of the US Air Force. He worked in Missle Trafficking and Air Traffic Control. In the 70's he did a 1 year remote tour of duty (w/o family) in Newfoundland. When he came back state side, he stated he & others often received distress signals and calls for help from USSR Cosmonauts that had been put into space, and couldn't come back into our atmosphere to come home. They were stuck in space until their oxygen ran out, and they died inside their capsules witch never came back to earth. He heard them everyday until their transmissions stopped. There was nothing the US could do to help, and their remains (if there are any) are still orbiting earth.
I believe that this is true. There was a couple of italian radio amateurs, they´d recorded voice of cosmonaut obviously in serious trouble. I mean, some channels of ISS Crew radio you can receive at prox 400 mhz or so? Got a good walkitalki bought from china.So Its not that difficult to listen to. And russian cosmonauts handle in a hiding way when they are in any trouble. Your Brother i think told a true story.
@@user-sh8hu6yt4g correct. That must’ve been sad to hear them breathing their last breaths and probably hearing them cry for help with nothing to do about it. The soviets would deny anything bad happening to them and they were very tight lip about this so who knows how many cosmonauts were lost in space and died up there

Why didnt we all get a look at him in the cabin he was a one of a kind hero in my opinion ? SECRECY ? Why does the most important issue always get held back ? Unreal .
Competition.....Russia was the enemy or seen as such by the Morons in Washington and so lets not make a hero out of this guy! i think thats what was going on.
His coworkers were donating money for a funeral, not the government!! If anything I'd expect a communist government to provide that sort of thing but then again China doesn't even provide universal health care.
Soviet Russia where the Democrats believed everything is paid for by the socialist Communist government. They can launch you into space but won't bury you when it kills you. Let's go Brandon
Wow what a story. Problems ALWAYS seem to come in waves in life. Never ever celebrate too early. You learn that life lesson in your early teens and 20’s.
They have tests to exclude people not brave enough. So, if you scare easily or are not brave, you won't pass and won't become an astronaut or cosmonaut.
It's amazing how much in common we have with the Russian people Why are we always at odds ? A partnership to go back to the moon would have been great. It's not going to happen now though. Maybe someday?
This is an incredibly amazing experience. I wonder how come I don't recall hearing anything about this in my childhood. What year was this? My brother was all about spaceships, etc. So I heard a lot about space when I was a kid. I'm just trying to rack my brain to see if I have any remnant of this in there. LOL.
@01:34 there is a object at the very top of the screen of the docking, that comes from the left to the middle. I know the picture is not great but this is a small solid black object.
This man is still alive! He is the last of the original cosmonaut crews still alive. He endured a second hard landing in another Soyuz flight. This is one tough man. He claims to be the first jew in space. Check out Wikipedia for Boris Volynov.
At least the Soviets made him a hero of the Soviet Union twice for his rides in that Soyuz death trap. The Soyuz 1 cosmonaut, Komarov, was killed when his capsule parachute didn't open. He cursed the Soviet leadership the last minutes before impact. He and Gagarin knew that the early Soyuz capsules were death traps, but Komarov flew to keep his friend, Gagarin, from having to fly the Soyuz.

One thing I don't understand is why people "Praise de Lawd," when a person survives something, yet no one ever blames or says," Da Lawd sucks" or even Praise gad for taking so and so with Her back to Heaven when someone doesn't survive? Just curious about that....
Friction with the earth's atmosphere does NOT cause the enormous fireball in front of a spacecraft. Spacecrafts hit the top end of the atmosphere at over 30,000 mph whereas the atmospheric gases can only vibrate at about 350 mph. This causes a compression of gases in front of the craft. A consequence of Newton's 2nd Law of thermodynamics is that whenever a gas is compressed, it gives off energy. Like when you put up a tire with a bicycle pump and the bottom of the pump gets very hot.
@@michaelgranger7113 "Meteors enter the atmosphere at speeds ranging from 11 km/sec (25,000 mph), to 72 km/sec (160,000 mph!). When the meteoroid collides with air molecules, its high level of kinetic energy rapidly ionizes and excites a long, thin column of atmospheric atoms along the meteoroid’s path, creating a flash of light visible from the ground below. This column, or meteor trail, is usually less than 1 meter in diameter, but will be tens of kilometers long. The wide range in meteoroid speeds is caused partly by the fact that the Earth itself is traveling at about 30 km/sec (67,000 mph) as it revolves around the sun. On the evening side, or trailing edge of the Earth, meteoroids must catch up to the earth’s atmosphere to cause a meteor, and tend to be slow. On the morning side, or leading edge of the earth, meteoroids can collide head-on with the atmosphere and tend to be fast."-www.amsmeteors.org/meteor-showers/meteor-faq/#3
Yeah, there's a lot wrong in the reports online. Orenburg is far more than 200 km SW of Kostanay but the other city named in some reports, Zhetikara, is 200 km away. If it landed 25 km from Zhetikara, it's not mountinous. It's pretty damned flat and desolate. They've changed the names of places since 1991 but this makes some sense. Orenburg might refer to the oblast, not the city but who can tell? My girlfriend was born in a city that doesn't exist in a country that doesn't exist.
Ok im going to give it a go on finding the cabin ! As luvky as he was he got out of space craft and walked to it !! He got lucky in everything rlse why not that ???
Cosmonaut means sailor of the universe Astronaut means sailor of the world. I looked it up when I was a kid, unless the dictionary has changed the meaning.
Well, I looked up the word "Astronaut" today, on the internet. Several prominent dictionaries are quoted on the internet as saying that this word comes from two anchient Greek words: "star," followed by "sailor," or Star Sailor.
