They literally celebrate r*** and murder of children right at this very moment. Also this is propaganda video, guy is clearly state sponsored and everyone around he walks to is paid actors as well.
I Visit Russia (St Petersburg) last July and was they nicest and friendly people that i ever met from all 26 Countries i travel, and i don't speak Russian
American veteran here, I am heart broken with the war. It is a net loss on both sides unless you're in the business end of this tragedy. Every war now ends at the negotiating table and I really wish it would go there quickly. That said, I had an apartment that I put up on couch surfing in Phnom Penh and for some reason it was all Russians that came to stay and to the person I found them all to be wonderful. This was some years ago and the thought that they might have gotten sucked into this horror show brings me to tears. I doubt any that I met would have gone unless they were conscripted. Love from Vietnam.
I know it’s still summer time , but I have heard the the Russians really enjoy Christmas and the Christmas markets. So hopefully you will cover them later in the year.👌👍🇬🇧
I haven't seen any of this media coverage. The stuff I've seen is about how evil Putin and the Russian army are. The war is starting to touch more wealthy Russians now, the economy is going to shit. A lot of Russians going to realise that Putin is a disaster. Shame it's too late.
Can confirm. I had the very similar experience in Syktyvkar. The locals were all super caring and lovely to be around. Not one - not ever one problem at all.
@@artyomt26 Believe it. It was interesting meeting people and speaking broken Russian only to run across that unicorn that responded in fluent English.
I didn't see Russians wasting their time 'hunting art pieces'...when asked for locations, most people interviewed didn't have a clue where or what Sam was asking about....
@@lornewazny7152 the majority of people gave me directions to them. We’re you expecting the entire town to be looking for them? I guess you would be busy looking for the weapons of mass destruction.
So evil people can't eat, drink and have fun? May I remind you that these same people get off by seeing children being r**** and murdered in Okraine and Georgia?
Не знаю, кто вы, искусники, но твёрдо уверен, что любой наш русский город хотел бы иметь такие "сюрпризы". А Сэмюэлу - спасибо, что показал эту лепоту. 👏👏👏👏👏 Браво! Браво!
Since when does the evil communist Russian dictatorial regime allow people to walk the streets without getting thrown in the Gulag? This is truly amazing footage
A cozy town nice buildings, glass bricks like a doll's house, a lot of people on the road and in the entertainment places. Kind citizens always helpful. Fortunate guy to find your card on the grass, be careful in future. Thanks for sharing.
@@lornewazny7152 Sorry, I have no idea what Russian kids play in a Russian style TV room. Also I don't know what a Russian style TV room looks like. Maybe those have four walls. I have a hunch you could give some proposals to the installers.
I was horrified at how nice and polite and friendly the people were to you. Truly shocking because the media here has informed me that no such people exist in that country! It's almost like they are...wrong.
There is one good rock band, has a song with interesting words: "Let's break the TV down You're gonna understand what you really need Go on this is your life You're gonna break it down then you wake up Let's break the TV down"
Sam your videos are an education. what a fascinating culture and before you I thought Russians had two heads, according to the MSM, that's the way proper Americans think of Russians but I haven't found any yet
Thank you! I recently made a video on my 2nd channel, perhaps you have seen it. The video was meant as a joke but so many people believed it. I can only put this down to the propaganda that is taught with regards to life in Russia.
@@SamsRussianAdventures cool !!! Thanx for the tip man ! Congrats for your channel as well...Actually i just can´t wait this stupidy war comes to an end so finally i can get to Russia, its in my wish list for several years way before all this mess begins.
@@frankgasparotto2344Приезжай хоть сейчас!!! Мы хорошим людям всегда рады!!! Я знаю что вам про Россию рассказывают совсем другое!!! Но тут живут потресающий люди, которые знают ценности и уважают других людей!!! Я сам переехал в Россию 17 лет назад из Морокко и не разу, не пожалел!!! Я не когда отсюдого не уеду!!!
That brick art is awesome! Only in Russia will one find such things. I even noticed that third brick you showed with the two people watching TV had a poster of Viktor Tsoi. Keno is awesome and Kukushka is one of my favorite songs of all time! I'd love to learn to sing it in Russian! (I wish I spoke Russian like you). Yes, my dearest friend could likely teach it to me, we just have not gotten around to that. We always talk about us and important things feeding love into our friendship bordering on relationship. Russians can be very close in friendship and they are like Velcro, can't ask for better than that. They genuinely care about their friends and family domestic or foreign. As for how most Russians treat Westerners: Don't get me started, we will be here all day! Suffice it to say that Russians don't assume much. If one is genuine and honest on good behavior the way Russians treat one from the west or whatever is a very humbling experience. I have always considered myself kind-hearted and everything and behave accordingly as I also happen to be an empath. That said and true though when I met my first Russians and ultimately my best friend I was still humbled! The amazing part of it all is how incredibly kind-hearted most Russians can be in spite of some of the rather unpleasant rule/leadership under which they have lived and do live at least by western standards if not others. (Really not much different from the US leadership) Also, most Russians are very gracious and appreciative people you will ever meet! Give them even the smallest thing including just a mere compliment and it is a big deal to them! I have experienced it many times over and have even seen it on your channel and others! Many Russians while quite shy still also do not hesitate to help visitors to their country if they can. Russians as with many other peoples view others a individuals, separate from their perspective governments/leadership. Americans are practically the only people that tend to view others (Russians in this case) as part of the leadership/government, working directly for said leadership. I'm still to this day shocked at how many Americans think all Russians work for Putin or hate Americans and others or love the terrible things their leadership does or even work for FSB (Americans still call it KGB and also think there is but one Kremlin). Americans do not understand anything much on the whole, least of which the fact that "Kremlin" means fortress and there are many in Russia, some turned into parks or museums and what have you. Bottom line before I go on forever is this: The media and group think is all lies and propaganda. The best and truest friend one can have is someone from Russia. As mentioned before, when I met my best friend 8 years ago, I realized that I had never had true friend until then! I have very warm feelings even about my Russian acquaintances! Know this though (you probably do already) that Russians are quite shy and one must let them go at their own pace to get to know you. Many people here in the sates think Russians are not loving or friendly or affectionate, etc. It is opposite, once they get to know you you may be overwhelmed how loving or affectionate and friendly they can be. The secret is to be open-minded and honest with them. Learn some of their ways. One of my problems is that I would likely go around wanting to hug them if I visited. (Don't try to do that at first, but that will come with time). One of the problems that would happen if my best friend and I ever had the chance to physically meet up would set a new world record for longest hug and such. We may have to be surgically separated! What also blows my mind is that her whole family knows me as well now! Like I have said, to Russians there is little separation between family and close friends. It is almost one in the same at a point. I will never understand the fear of Russians by Americans. It comes from leadership, media and too many movies. In fact, Russians see James Bond movies as comedies, seriously, really. I have had this discussion with a number of Russians.
Вы всё правильно написали о характере Русских, но не угадали насчёт Путина. В России любят и уважают Путина так как его сами выбирали. и все действия Путина Это действия народа России
I don't blame Americans for their negative views about Russia because they just believe what they are told. The American Government may change more often but they are the ones with the 800 military bases worldwide and the weapons sales. They control the world and anyone who steps out of line gets in trouble. Have you thought about perhaps meeting your friend? I get the feeling that it would be a good idea for you!
There is a very big and fundamental difference from the US government and Russia. In Russia, most people respect and really vote for their leader. They are proud of their government, while in the US it's the complete opposite. It is not correct to put the Russian and US governments on the same shelf. And you are saying in vain that the Russians are suffering a lot, but despite their suffering, they have retained some moral qualities. This is not in spite of, but thanks to. It's all interconnected. I remember people in the US under other governments and in other times. Everything was different. The political, social situation greatly influences the moral state of society. When you give a high appraisal to the moral qualities of Russians, you are simultaneously evaluating their political and social situation. Let's be honest - most people on this planet and most countries in the world would be happy to elect Mr. Putin as president (including the United States)
@@xalekcey Вы ошибаетесь. В России нет априорного уважения к власти, скорее наоборот. Зато есть любовь к стране, а коррумпированная верхушка воспринимается как неизбежное зло
Sam -- This video proves unequivocally how absolutely evil all Russians are in Vladimir: 1. The bus driver refused to open the bus doors to allow Sam on the bus. 2. The street vendors spat in his food when he bought a hot dog. 3. Children gave one finger salutes as he passed. 4. Sam was always followed by Russian Security Police, the FSB. 5. Shop keepers refused to serve him. 6. We saw irrefutable evidence that children were being arrested in the park for playing ball. 7. We just about managed to see a westerner being racked (as in mediaeval torture) in a corner of the restaurant for criticising Russian food. 8. This justifies Olena Zelenska's call to invade Russia and "replace" every Russian with a Ukrainian. Russia will be then be called "Greater Zelenska!" The Russian language would be forbidden on pain of 10 year's imprisonment in Siberia. Russian children would be trained to sweep floors and break blocks of granite at the quarry.
Now this is something really different! Very clever art work indeed. I am amazed at how many people know about these tiny works of art. Also at how helpful the people are.😁😁
@@SamsRussianAdventures Where did that come from? No Iraq would be very similar to Russia with people leaving trying to get to a Western Country....boat, plane, car anyway possible....
Nice video Sam! I really enjoyed this tour around Vladimiri, which is so beautiful and romantic. Very interesting art objects, glass bricks....indeed and I would have seen all the other glass bricks!! Anyway I hope you will find them! Be more careful! You could have lost your debt card! Thank you so much for taking us with you in this fantastic tour.
Thank you very much! I lose my debit card quite often, though usually down the side of the car seat! I will try and make a part two and find the remaining bricks! Have a great weekend!
Дорогой Сэм, приезжайте в Мышкин 5 августа на фестиваль ретротехники "Самоходъ". Колокольня - вид на слияние Юхоти с Волгой. Люди - сок земли русской. Из руин технику своими руками и едут чтоб насладиться общением. Это купание! Это музеи и ещё это вкусно)))
For foreigners. These old and ruined buildings are private property. And the ground underneath them too (often). The owners do not want to repair them, they sell them. There is no point in restoring these houses. It's expensive and the new owner can completely demolish the old house and build something else. Therefore, these houses are standing and waiting for buyers.
The bricks are amazing ! Be nice if they keep some of those beautiful old buildings. The window frames alone are art pieces. I would love to travel Russia just to see the beauty buildings from the best and biggest to the beautiful old homes in the villages. And the scenery of course .
Oh those evil Russians 😀, they only made you go wandering all over town with no trace of the cute bricks. Thanks Sam for taking us on your treasurehunt, fun as always.
They seem to be a little apprehensive and cautious when you approach them, but when they realise that you're not going to harass them, but just playing around, seem relieved.
What an interesting idea to place these glass blocks around town and then go on a scavenger hunt. It would also be interesting to meet the artist that made these. Good luck and keep having fun. Stay strong Russia.
Interesting little art projects. Sorry you couldn't find all of them. Thanks for showing us around anyways. Maybe someone should make an app or map to show where they are all located.
более того , украинская культура без россии не существовала бы , русские хранят и поддерживают культуру множества народов населяющих россию, русские не уничтожали народы как это делали американцы , и европейцы .русские даже сохранили и помогают индейцам на северной части россии.Модальный глагол
@@VlaDichKaUtter bullshit. Kyiv is one among the oldest cities in Europe and was founded in 482, while Moscow was founded in 1147 by Yuriy Dolgoruky, the son of Volodymyr Monomakh. So, Kyiv is older than Moscow by 665 years.
@@benwarful ага узнай историю окраины, она появилась после русской земли, вы окраине пытаетесь переписать историю, первая столица Руси тебе неизвестна Я полагаю, и тыне представляешь что у государств могут быть разные столицы в разный период времени, местечковость тебе не позволяет так думать, вы же существуете не более 30 лет отдельно от России, тебе не дано понять . Не пиши мне более не интересно читать писанину окраинян.
Sam is handling his debit card like De Gea manned the goal the past few years. Lol. Nice video, Sam. Vladimir looks beautiful in summer. Looking forward to seeing the leaves change in autumn. Blagosloveniya.
@@SamsRussianAdventures It's 35-40C here and it's been this way off and on all summer. October and November will be a very welcomed respite from the heat.
Apteka - Pharmacy. I can read Cyrillic but have zero grammar in speaking Russian. So similar to Polish, (30% of Polish is Russian) When you asked “where is…” , sounds very similar to Polish. Just found your channel, both of them, and prescribed to both. Watching from Glasgow, very fine uploads and travel vlog work. Is that a Yorkshire accent.?
Did the title help? Did it boost views? When I saw the title and then watched the video I rembrred what you said in a previous video about content that is negative about Russia is boosted by RU-vid and positive content is shadow banned. If that was your intent and it worked then good for you. We shouldn’t have to play head games with RU-vid but that is the world we live in at the moment.
I liked this video, it was a good video of sight seeing around Vladmir. I was starting to think those girls was playing a trick on you looking for the brick at first.
@@SamsRussianAdventures I see you are showing plenty of disused farmland, in your videos? How about of purchasing such land in present day Russia, or which region you reside?
@@SamsRussianAdventures I prefer farmland...... to invest in the management and solutions in ego agriculture. Russian may become the richest and most productive food producer of the world! Think about it Sam. Where exactly is the Vladimir region? Are west of the Urals, or south Siberia?
Very enjoyable video Sam. What a lovely town you’ve got there, some beautiful architecture and so clean! Some cracking women too! Looking forward to the next one.
when i worked in holland (im from uk) i lived next to 4 russians, 2 couples, they were the friendliest most welcoming people ever and ive literally never forgot about these guys cause they were so much fun to hang around! id really like to visit Russia
By the way, I have a telegram group for my channel where I share daily life here in Russia and you can ask me any questions. t.me/samsrussianadventures
A family friend lived in Russia from 1913 -1921 and wrote in her diary that Russians were most friendly and generous people, although the Revolution changed things a bit, but now their true character is returning?
Here's an extract from her diary, in case it's of interest-written in1913 "I have had exceptional opportunities of studying the Russian people, for until the Revolution began, I lived with the Nobility, then the Intelligentsia and went about the villages freely amongst the peasantry. I have seen them in peaceful times, during war-time and Revolution and shared their joys and sorrows. At this time, Russian people were deeply religious, emotional, stubbornly conservative, improvident and fatalistic, ‘What has to be, has to be’ answers every crisis. In misfortune, they sit patiently until help arrives, or allowing themselves to be led like lambs to the slaughter. They are thoroughly peaceful and are generally more warm and kind than any other nationality. During my time there, I hardly ever heard an unkind word about another human being. There were many beggars in Russia, for there were no poor houses, but no beggar was ever refused alms, for two reasons. Russians are compassionate and like to give. They are also superstitious and if refused help, the beggar might curse them. They always refer to criminals as unfortunates and en route to Siberia, peasants regularly place bread outside, on their window sills for any ‘unfortunates’ who may be passing by or escaping. There is an indescribable charm about the people. Their music is haunting and heart searching, their poetry nearest to man and nature and their human charity nearest to God. The Russian soul is filled with a human Christian charity, which is warmer in kind, intense in degree and expressed with a greater simplicity than is to be met with in any other nation. Every Russian has tolerance for human frailty. They admire and aim at possessing ‘Shirokaya’ nature- a broad and generous nature".@@SamsRussianAdventures
You can do it! You don’t need to know Russian before arriving! I only knew hello, goodbye and how are you! Then they would answer and I’d have no idea what they said! But many people speak English!
It’s time I bought you a beer. Can you put up the link to do that Sam. I’m finally in shape to give you something small to keep your channel going and I’m sure I’m not the only one.
Wow! Thank you! Honestly, not many people do. In the last 30 days I had 4 donations I think. Support my channel: www.buymeacoffee.com/samhyland3v My 2nd channel: youtube.com/@broadrussia5742
Is the title a joke? I was confused because everyone was very pleasant & friendly. You have a great Russian accent. Where is your English accent from? East Midlands as that’s mine.
Ok ok I got it- just watching There are things I haven’t told you - life in Russia Q & A. Ha ha Nott’m - me too! Now in Yorkshire 😊 I am subscribed to you now.
Hi, yes I was just being sarcastic. More people watch because they are expecting to see what they have been taught. Anything that is bad about Russia will bring in more views. Anything pro Russia is a risk.
Sam!!!! Bro every time I check in with you… what did I tell you… bro what the hell did I tell you???!!! When you had less than 1000 subs and 35 views per video! When my handle was Strange And Unusual I told you watch this is gonna blow up! I knew it man. It was matter of time. I’m proud of you man! I told you.
Curious bricks, they remind me of episodes of CSI Las Vegas about finding the miniatures murderer, the murderer sent a parcel with these perfectly made miniatures of perpetrated before the fount out about them.
At the en of your video. When you say goodbye. I think i can spot the glass brick just above you left shoulder. This video was fun :) So nice those small treasure installments. Looked again. Might be my eyes playing tricks lol
Здравствуйте, Сэм! Когда Вам говорили про Вокзальный спуск, возможно имели в виду улицу, которая ведёт от гостиницы Владимир к вокзалу, а не лестницу ведущую от остановки к вокзалу.
I've been dreaming of touring Vladimir since last summer. Thanks for showing around. Hopefully, you enjoyed your walk off the beaten track! Now I know where to look for some of these lovely glass bricks. 👍 They're amazing! Stay safe!
Самое интересное это читать комментарии иностранцев) Очень много забавных). Впечатление, что иностранные СМИ совершенно не показывают настоящую Россию) Иностранцы представляют Россию какой-то мрачной, страшной. Еще удивительнее что люди самостоятельно ничего не могут найти. Нет доступа к каким-то русским ресурсам? Мы можем смотреть практически любые передачи. А через VPN так абсолютно все что хотим. В России о других странах много правдивой информации. У нас есть возможность читать и смотреть все что хотим и поэтомуив России в целом большинство людей имеют точные сведения о других странах и народах. Поэтому русские люди понимают мир в целом в его многообразии и не испытывают агрессии к другим людям и странам. Непонятно почему у иностранцев так мало информации о России?
"It looked like it's old, but it's brand new." I almost spit out my drink. The biggest thing that has always upset me at looking at Russian real estate is this.
Merry Christmas! Spranikom! Just joined your Channel - Very interesting - So Nice to see Russia life! We Love Russian people! They are Intelligfent, Loyal, Honest, straighforward. God Bless, thank you :)
Интересно!)) Скажите, Сэм, а как долго они там будут находиться? Я думаю о поездке по Золотому кольцу (конечно, включая Владимир) в сентябре, тоже хотела бы поискать!))
Они здесь уже давно и будут до момента когда украдут. youtube.com/@ri__line Еще есть страница на инмтаграме instagram.com/ri__line?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==
We know you like the old buildings Sam ;) Good Easter Egg Hunt! You certainly found A white building! I guess I sort of recognized a green Aptoeka sign on the arch- A pharmacy sign? It was a shame how brutally they treated the Western Capitalist Beer Bellied Pig Dog Tourist... Can't a guy catch a break?
