Reporter's Confrontation at Ukrainian Checkpoint: Russian Roulette in Ukraine 

Full of disinformation

They don't look like the good guys .The russians mean.

Ye mean thar apc?

Well done Russia keep fighting for your own people

Some real balls of Blyat

YouSoldMe he probably didn't even know what he was saying...

Should have played earape version of the US anthem

If that guard had any actual intention of shooting them, they would've been dead. Gunning those two down at that kind of close distance would've been beyond child's play. As Simon stated, they likely only survived due to the two of them being American and British nationals and the guards not wanting to stir up some kind of international incident.

Yeah from nearby Chernobyl

its funny how the camara guy got away ,

Not that scary if you know the law and got a good film crew, those security guys are grunts, theyre the ones who should be scared of VICE, messing up on cameras means kgb on their ass.

FXThug Still scary.

Deathbrewer, the kgb wouldn't do shit the person giving orders to set up the checkpoint is the same that controls the kgb

well at least they where american and british because if they where not they might not have been let go

Have been following ever since and now visiting older documentations covering the conflict. And its really upsetting to see how literally nothing as changed

@russian disinformation your name is correct, you spread Russian disinformation.

Story is from 2014

@@josephastier7421 Yes. I watched all of these stories as they came out. Now that there is an escalation in conflict, it would be nice to see more of this.

Amazing isn’t it? Great coverage! I like how he knows the languages and speaks to everyone in their native tongue. That helps him a lot. So there’s no miscommunication. That was very scary at the end! I thought he was going to get shot! Holy moly! I wouldn’t risk my life for a story. But he does! He’s braver than I am. Kudos to him! 👏🏻

You are not allowed to film military objects nor men during this war. If it's in backlines and you are filming with consent (excluding military objects) from commanders then sure.

Kalashnikov with kalashnikov 😂

nothing surprising actually, its like guy named Thomas with tommy gun happened rather often I think

The same thing struck to my mind!🤣🤣🤣🤣

The Ukrainian soldiers were probably ordered to empty their mags since they don’t want any shots to be fired. The Russians have their loaded to shoot back from provoking the Ukrainian soldiers.

Shujah Chaudhary that is pure conjecture, I am afraid. All we know is the Ukrainians shown run unloaded rifles while the Russians shown run full. This can be interpreted in several ways, with yours being rather unlikely to me given the treatment of journalists by the Russians evidenced here.

And it's why russians soldiers are better

@@TOXIC_BONES Sure, you know how quickly you can slap a mag into a rifle...fast enough to drop that Spetnaz wannabe who harassed the reporterr before his dupa could get behind cover....

Try invading a base without mag

Incredible piece of real journalism. Journalist with ball of steel. So interesting to see these background facts now in the 2' months of Russian invasion.

you dont need to physically beat them when you have the NSA and CIA working on keeping certain shit quiet.

woah, search for US police brutality. They shoot you without warning LOL your comment makes me laugh so hard. Keep living in the delusion of the West and US

Didn't some reporters get shaken down by the Attorney General a few months ago and threatened with arrest and prosecution for what he was reporting? Also filming the police is now a felony in some states like Illinois and a news crew was beaten down by Texas cops.

***** I'm only aware of Chris Faraone claiming to be beaten by NYPD during OWS, but any threatens to be shot?

JayeK47 Any link to that?

Yeah, i agree, this gives alot more detail about the inside situation than the actual news does.

News: " Oh Russia put a couple troops on the the Crimean peninsula and now the US and Russia are talking"" Vice : Russia has troops on mainland Ukraine, they use old warships to block of ports, they hop over walls into military bases, they interview the soldiers and get their opinion on the war, get pushed around by Russian soldiers. Gotta love Vice

Dyllan Duran man thats so true

This was 8 years ago chumps

Nikisright Look how that turned out

*OH BOI*

Uuuuuuhhhhh

Aged like fine milk

And here we are again

@landry KAMGA where is propaganda? Every prorussian puppet screams like you.

@right back at ya u mean russia one sided?

@right back at ya oh yes yes mate russia did nothing wrong, it never anexed crimea, vice is fake propaganda better believe putinoid

@right back at ya "troops were sent for security reasons" :DDDDD

reporter start talking in russian language, this was the reason. There anybody can arrested without reason, because military power may do anything with people(example they will arrest you to 15 days, if they want...)

XD damn didn't notice

Story is from 2014

I'm curious, what did you dislike? Everything I've seen from him is pretty fucking great, but I've only watch the ukrainian coverage.

nawedy His Sochi coverage was very biased and one sided against Russia. Especially considering most of the stuff he claimed was happening in Russia for the Sochi olympics happened in the west as well. Im not Russian, but i hate bias

pukaki brah I completely agree, the Sochi video was majority him talking about it on his views rather than really reporting it. Though in this video he did do reporting and he actually didn't do anything to provoke the soldiers. That's a nice change since because a couple videos back he asks if the soldier was going to shoot him with his gun or beat him up.

TheAmazingTrooper I didn't feel it was any point in even trying to look at Sochi as a good thing. People's homes were demolished and an absolute insane amount of money was spent on the Olympics that should have been used for the people. Also, those managers Simon was talking to were lying so hard about 'cost' it was embarrassing to watch. Yes Simon can have a pretty one-sided view, but in my eyes he is always on the right side, if there is such a thing.

Ebb0Productions I never said what was happening in Sochi was good, I just felt like it was a bit too bias. I apologies for my poorly worded comment and this one is probably poorly worded too.

he said "stand still", and then he might have said "Ill shoot" in the end, but its not clear in the end.

yea I only heard stand still. he might have said "I'll shoot" but it is not 100% clear.

region0706 If he said "Ill shoot" why he dont do this when journalists don't take his order?

he didn't say ... there was some sounds but it is not clear. Vice is just another type of propaganda nowadays here is /watch?v=3GdsKXK53nE "opressed ukranian army in crimea"

This is antirussian propaganda sponsored by CIA and Western Ukrainian Bandera - fascists who with violence overturned legitimate government. I don’t say that all Western Ukrainians are fascists, but the fact is that right now Kiev and West Ukraine is ruled buy right wing militant Bandera - fascists and everybody is scared of them. So nobody in his right mind cannot blame Russian people in South-Eastern Ukraine for not wanting to live under the fascists rule from West Ukraine. After all Russian and Russian speaking population are majority in South-Eastern Ukraine, so under the elementary rule of democracy they can chose how they want to live their life, so if they want to be independent and away from fascists we have to respect their decision. But unfortunately CIA doesn’t like democracy, they see this as chance make money by selling weapons and creating another war, so they can be paid and keep their jobs, as this is the only way they can survive, by CREATING THE WARS AND KILLING innocent people. I hope soon will come a day when all world will stop believing in CIA propaganda and start living peacefully at every country in the world.

They set the whole thing up….just to get exciting press…slime

Guess it takes real courage to produce a biased liar propaganda documentary in "enemy territory". Real courage. This, I can't deny.

Unfortunately Vice shows only ONE point of view. The point of view US likes.

@@cumulusnimbus8717 Does it take courage to show your idiocy to the world?

@@derrym5470 I hear ya, we would like to hear how wonderful it is to have Russians invade your country or to support separatists! Maybe the Poles can tell us how wonderful it was to have Hitler invade from the west and Stalin invade from the east too?

Yeah they are so brave that they run away these bitches LOL

first time I heard you can control landmines, and here I was thinking they just kinda blow up whomever steps on them

That's just freaking ridiculous isn't it. Land mines is a war crime no?

Hobo Maximus no

It can be just a sign to scare people. But nobody will try it with thier lives.

Hobo Maximus there is a treaty banning them but notably Russia and the USA have not signed it. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Land_mine#Anti-personnel_mine_ban

He is trying to report both sides. It looks bad if he sides with Ukraine, showing half the story like national American news would be bull.

What you saw here was just a small peak into the price of true journalism. Simon, we are proud of you, keep up the good work!

he is well-paid for his one-seded for his fabricated "reports",money-maker good boy!

lola sovina whatever the fuck does that mean

MegaMrFreeman It means "I don't care if he interviewed pro-Russian locals earlier in the series, it's fabricated propaganda if he doesn't show all Russians as polite angels." It's fairly disgusting to see Putin's regime turn human beings into nothing but spambots.

What do you think of the invasion? Are you surprised? They’re still using that propaganda.

@@jeremyagosto-santana5280 Not surprised, only this time nobody in the civilized world is buying it. Besides that, the myth of the mighty Russian army has been shattered in 3 days.

When was the last time you heard a camera man in a Vice documentary speak?

Wilfred Fazio Mueller They usually cut those bits out.

swedishfool91 Yeah, I know of editing.

Then why bother mentioning it? We all heard him say shit.

Because I'm an insecure, misanthropic asshole who doesn't like stupid people and stupid statements. Basically.

Братан когда земля мерзлая и с камнями, то будешь и ножом колупать

I'm glad they didn't "Shoot to kill" though. ._. That would've been baaad.

Cloud Mikanae Would've lead to WW3 all of this shit needs to stop

what would you do? be hostage of a situation that you know you are not guilty of nothing, I would run the shit out of there.

Facundo Farias What 'situation' lol?! You so naive...

well thats how Russian people acts in other countries too. Ths is how they are and thoy could just have been more patient because look they were just tree and thay had no such weapons

As a journalist he has a responsibility not to surrender his camera, and the dude just grabbed him then one of his subordinates threatened to kill him as he attempted to get out of there... not in the direction of Crimea either but back onto the Ukrainian side. As already mentioned, many journalists have had their equipment seized.

If I was actively engaging in propaganda, I would consider not showing up in front of the people I consistently misinformed public about and continue to do so just the same. This cockroach calling himself a journalist is a disgrace to the profession.

Нет, там какая-то провокация за кадром ИМХО. Вначале они спокойно стоят, потом начинают вырыватся и убегать. Хрень какая-то.

Судя по коментам инглишевским, там ктото из съемочной группы ножом светанул.

Stepanich Stepanov Нет. Они начали агриться после того, как увидели его удостоверение американской прессы. А о "ноже и пистолете" ему потом беркутовец нагло в лицо лгал. Мол, ты че, я же у тебя оружие видел.

There are more chances of the US invading Mexico than the other way around, after all it wouldn't be the first time, and the US has a long history of invading other countries.

you are right haha thats my bad:D

i think that russia calling everyone fascist when you don't agree with them what so ever is based on the fact that russia must see its self greater to the world then what it really is cause its almost like arrogance

i agree

But Mexico would totally welcome US invasion though. :)
