My mother is from Ladan, we leaved in Kiev and now I moved to Germany. I've spent my sommers in Ladan when I was a kid. When I saw that you are in Priluki, I jumped on my chair. When you said that you are going to Ladan I gasped. When i saw the sign "Ladan", i cried. Nostalgia hit me hard. As far as I know, people in there are very good and warm. Hope you liked it there. Thank you.
I can't believe how entertaining it is to see some guy travelling randomly around former USSR . Probably because its focusing on the people, not the sights.

It's a legitimate possibility that he is a British spy. That would explain his super-human ability to gain people's trust, get access to very strange places, simulatenously film/walk/climb/bike/socialize.
@@beccaminkin8399 Yeah I know what you're saying. I didn't give much credence to that theory at first but it' becoming more and more probable! Either way he's very entertaining.
Imagine what Sergei's wife must have thought, he rides off into town for a beer on a Tuesday morning, comes back 4 hours later steaming drunk with a random Englishman filming on the back of his motorcycle, he then demands a bottle of home brew before riding off into the sun. Absolutely brilliant!
I'm Russian and I can say that climbing a tower with a bottle of vodka in one hand and a camera in another followed by cheerful drunk singing is the most Russian thing I've ever seen in my life.
I love it! Being invited to his house for some vodka and seeing his garden is the way to experience the true culture. My wife is Bulgarian and when I visit I get to experience the same thing, having drinks with locals and experiencing the culture. Sure, I could stay at a beach resort, but I mine as well go to Florida then.
Classic Bald and Bankrupt. A trip to a small village, a little historical appreciation, a little shopping, a demonstration of bridge-building communication, a friendship with a local that leads to a behind-the-scenes look at how people live, a bit of drinking and music (and sometimes food), an aspect of danger...and we have the most amazing adventure. Thanks for taking us with you around the world!
You really need an award for your vlogs, your work is incredibly fascinating, entertaining and honest. I'm really glad that I found you on youtube, I wish you all the best on your future journey's.
@@johnsmith-wx5fb Well, I think there will always be not so smart people, that are more attracted on watching dumb and fake TV shows, than watching good and quality content videos like this.

The hospitality of these people never ceases to amaze me. It's basically like, do you like to drink? Yes? Then we are now friends. Come to my house and drink. Amazing.
Even in the US, well especially in the us we have folks that live on the fringe. Usually lower class. They know how to party and are very unique. I come from a lower middle class upbringing and if your their to party you are welcomed. What all that means is that it is fun as hell so get out there and meet some people.
I can imagine Bald meeting again a sober Sergey. Bald "Hi, Sergey, my friend Long time no see..." Sergey "Who the fuck are you? How do you know my name?"

He's drunk most of the time, so he runs into other drunks and they always have drunk adventures. That's what makes eastern Europe so wacky, nobody has anything to do but drink, there are no jobs.
@@TBCO310 naturally. When nobody has anything, anything someone does get is shared freely. Friendship matters a lot more when you're broke. Used to do that with weed as a teenager.
Love the hospitality that bald receives, I live out in a rural part of England and one day an American guy called Rick Gunn happened to cycle past our local pub and stopped off for a pint. Turns out he was cycling round the world, we ended up getting hammered in the pub and having a party back at my dads house then he camped in the garden and was on his way the next morning
But you need to learn russian first. Most people bald is interacting with don't know a word of english. You couldn't hold a conversation with sergei in english
@Serban Radu I was born in Romania, actually 🇷🇴 💪😎 I don't really know about romania, but most of the polish/belarussian/ukranian people I ran into (quite a few) speak poor english, not enough to hold a conversation, even the young ones.
@@koro741 looks like you haven't ride a bikecycle with pedal(leg)brakes or whatever you call it... actually, this is really fun. You can make cool half circles and left marks on the ground from extreme braking after speeding like crazy dare devil.
In Russia to launch Rocket dispatchers wait the command ready from above. The guy at that moment asked was the command 'ready'? But the word command and team sounds and writes same comanda 'команда'. So we got the wrong translate
Thankfully pewds did, thats how ive found bald his channel is so interesting its a shame he doesn't get more views. hopefully one day he can quit MI6 and be a full youtuber
Its smart tho, get pulled over, say im sober the passenger is drunk cause he wearing helmet, and if they find out you drunk, just give the mob the englishman.
As a rus i noticed that in his clips about 30% translations are not quite correct. For Example here Sergei said: “I don’t believe you’re a foreigner, I can also talk bullshit like you”. Although, i just have thought its not much of a difference here actually))
@@bigdaddydeester hahaha soooorry. Word Vong made me mistake, crap! I know that half of China has surname Vong and another half surname Lee, so i made an assumption that you are also Chinese. Didnt work this time)). Well, alright, my Thailandian/Canadian friend!
Besides, that's just an abandoned monument, you can find exactly same all over ruzzia. Ukrainian people does not supports fascism despite what ruzzian propaganda puts into ears of a weak-brained peoples everyday. If you think abandoning a monument is a fascism, i will disappoint you. Just google what fascism is. And compare the criterias with what is going on in ruzzia now.
Probably was in the army. That’s a normal protocol, judging by quantity of alcohol he consumed, he is not probably a pilot, although in Russia that’s not that uncommon to see pilots who drink.
How did this video miss me. This one was fantastic. Sergei is a legend. I am wishing him the best and hope he is safe and healthy in these crazy times.
FYI - Vodka (Water) is the Russian drink distilled from potatoes, He should have known/bought Horilka (Fire) which is the Ukrainian drink distilled from wheat.
@@Petescag vodka aint water, voda. And not horilka, its gorilka, its just ukrainian matter to say it. They also say hamburger instead of gamburger which would be correct in russian

demmordor Sergei*
I now love the Ukraine. Drunk guy gives up helmet to sober guy. That is hospitality.
Is team ready?
It's Ukraine, not the Ukraine btw
@@2Vasilisk2 Noted. I guess it would be the same as saying "The America"
@@2Vasilisk2 oh get over yourself. Nobody cares.
@@mcswabin207 it is THE United States of America, so this Ukrainian can just get over themselves and shut the hell up. It is THE UKRAINE
This guy is a legend. Slams a bottle of vodka, climbs an abandoned tower, rolls into some random post Soviet era town, goes for a beer. Well done.
I hope Sergey is alright, war is such a stupid thing
so is riding a bike drunk
Yeah people on both sides having their lives interrupted
@@dannydorko7075 Maybe but not as stupid as war lol, doesent seem to live that much ppl in hes "village " or what it is either, so driving drunk is probably mostly just harm to yourself
@@Phoneixghost people of one side could very well stay home and not be "interrupted".
@@Phoneixghoston both sides? Seriously?
I was laughing like crazy.. How do you come up with such craziness
Vodka...
He's drunk most of the time, so he runs into other drunks and they always have drunk adventures. That's what makes eastern Europe so wacky, nobody has anything to do but drink, there are no jobs.
Vodka, knives, snakes, tower climbing, drunk motorbiking, dancing all in a 20 minute video by an Englishman in the middle of nowhere Ukraine.
@@TBCO310 naturally. When nobody has anything, anything someone does get is shared freely. Friendship matters a lot more when you're broke. Used to do that with weed as a teenager.
14:30 this dude is a real slav he even has the carpet on his motorcycle
Love the hospitality that bald receives, I live out in a rural part of England and one day an American guy called Rick Gunn happened to cycle past our local pub and stopped off for a pint. Turns out he was cycling round the world, we ended up getting hammered in the pub and having a party back at my dads house then he camped in the garden and was on his way the next morning
sounds like someone visited Bilbo Baggins :D
@Joe Lee ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) yes extensive care at the hospital
Hope and prayers for Sergei and all of Ukraine 🇺🇦
If your party does not look like this, dont bother calling me.
Haha! So funny
@@EphemeralProductions I didn't laugh
MrBark45 : so? Everyone has a different sense of humor to the next person.
Artem SHARAPIEV I’ve been to a Russian Xmas party and we got pissed hard, spinning around in circles, yelling and screaming
You pedal backwards to slow down. It's called a Coaster brake.
They were the ultimate skid bikes 😂
@@Eskii_NZLOh yeah..i was 5 when i was doing 180's on my bike with my buddy.
I remember when I was 10 I felt like a motorbike stuntman coz I always did sick drifting with the kontra
100% chance he knows that. I think he had forgotten at first, but the second time it's definitely a joke :D
@@wickedmirage No breaks? He took many breaks
I've never seen someone have so much fun in eastern Europe. He makes me wanna go!
Same! I actually feel I want to live there.
@@CocoTaveras8975 You certainly won't if you are used to the western lifestyle, life is tough there.
But you need to learn russian first. Most people bald is interacting with don't know a word of english. You couldn't hold a conversation with sergei in english
@Serban Radu I was born in Romania, actually 🇷🇴 💪😎
I don't really know about romania, but most of the polish/belarussian/ukranian people I ran into (quite a few) speak poor english, not enough to hold a conversation, even the young ones.
@@bigbaba4542 you're right, but I'm 44 and I learn English every day by myself. I live in Kyiv+++
Theyre advancing quite near to where this village is now. Hope sergei is okay
Oh boy...
@@danny9114 Sergei you are breaking the tank Sergei! SERGEI!!
@@LegalizeTheNuclearBomb i understood that reference XD sami the legend
😥😥😥😥😥
Ladan,Ukraine was liberated by Ukrainian forces on March 31st! yay
Brakes -> pedal backwards
No handbrakes but a legbrake
dutch bikes have this too
Romanian Pegas has it too
@@koro741 looks like you haven't ride a bikecycle with pedal(leg)brakes or whatever you call it... actually, this is really fun. You can make cool half circles and left marks on the ground from extreme braking after speeding like crazy dare devil.
@@hippiemuslim Would be nice to try Pegas. I had soviet Aist when I was a boy.
RebelliousVandal you can also drift
You are truly going to become a legend With Your fantastic material. Just loving it and Greetings from WW2HistoryHunter.
Hey love your videos, been watching for some years now @ww2historyhunter
Heyyy, I'm sub'd to both your channels, cool.
Thank You for that my friend :)
Thanks Josh
He sure is :)
Great vlog. I can tell after watching 10 seconds of it.
@@chrissi.enbyYT dead
@Anthony D I'm gay
Praying for the safety of the lovely Ukrainian people like Sergei 🙏 Best wishes from Busan!
This was awesome. You are currently the best channel on RUclips for sure
Not "currently", but EVER!
Please visit Sergei again after this coronavirus situation is over! He’s the best! XD
Приедь к этому чуваку снова. Он будет в приятном шоке;)
u have to
“Is the team ready?” is my new road trip catchphrase.
he was being serious. he was seeing double.
Lol 😂😂 he probably thought there was THREE guys on the bike
@@cleric4265 in Russia - two is a team
In Russia to launch Rocket dispatchers wait the command ready from above. The guy at that moment asked was the command 'ready'? But the word command and team sounds and writes same comanda 'команда'. So we got the wrong translate
Sergei is such a lovely soul. We should all wish him well. What a delight.
-какая марка?
-чизете
- что, пиздато?
тоже оорнул с чизете)
Some one please translate ❤️
@@jamespriyam9362
-what's the brand?
-chizate (something like that)
-what, pizdato (means fuc*ing awesome ) ?
Спасибо дружище
В натуре !
Any cars there?
No cars there.
I love that little interaction. Sergey wasn't kidding when he called them a team 😅
Yes because sudden movement of sergey’s head, in the condition that he was (to check for cars) could’ve resulted in crash
i think he also called them a team because he was seeing 2 or 3 bald englishmen with him.
I love the fact that he put the pewdiepie song since he gave him a "shoutout" in the cold ones podcast
Thankfully pewds did, thats how ive found bald his channel is so interesting its a shame he doesn't get more views. hopefully one day he can quit MI6 and be a full youtuber
@@MunteeBuntee Lol I was surprised when he mentioned him, glad I found him before the shoutout.
Swegenator - why? So you can get more cool points?!
@@annother3350 yea i watched him before the shoutout am i cool 2
@@annother3350 precisely
Been binge watching. Helping me through a tough breakup. Appreciate ya
- Alright, you wear the helmet.
- What about you?
- Well, i am sober.
USSR ™ All rights reserved
No helmets on their way back!)))
@@drillhammer9423 soviet Ukraine 😎
and he is definitely not sober at all)
actually sober guy should wear helmet, because God protects the drunks
Its smart tho, get pulled over, say im sober the passenger is drunk cause he wearing helmet, and if they find out you drunk, just give the mob the englishman.
“I don’t believe you’re a foreigner, I can talk like a prick too”. Lmao
As a rus i noticed that in his clips about 30% translations are not quite correct. For Example here Sergei said: “I don’t believe you’re a foreigner, I can also talk bullshit like you”. Although, i just have thought its not much of a difference here actually))
@@whitelotus6230 No big deal though, same context and feeling
@@bigdaddydeester alright, my Chinese friend!
@@whitelotus6230 I'm Canadian/Thai don't call me Chinese..lol
@@bigdaddydeester hahaha soooorry. Word Vong made me mistake, crap! I know that half of China has surname Vong and another half surname Lee, so i made an assumption that you are also Chinese. Didnt work this time)). Well, alright, my Thailandian/Canadian friend!
Bald, when this crazy crisis is over you should go visit Sergei again.
I really want him to see koyla again, I hope he is doing alright.
Theodor Wikander me too, hope Kolya was able to keep wel and safe in this winter.
Sergei is my favourite 😂😂
Ja, I like sergei, he actually sticked Bald for a party, seems like a cool guy to light a fire and put back a few drinks with
SERIGI IS A PICTURE OF. MYSELF,STEVE1939,MAPLE SHADE,NEW JERSEY
It's sad that I watched this 3 years ago , it made me laugh , hard to believe now what the people of Ukraine are going through 🙏
Besides, that's just an abandoned monument, you can find exactly same all over ruzzia. Ukrainian people does not supports fascism despite what ruzzian propaganda puts into ears of a weak-brained peoples everyday. If you think abandoning a monument is a fascism, i will disappoint you. Just google what fascism is. And compare the criterias with what is going on in ruzzia now.
Даааааа полный писец
The way he says "is the team ready?" makes me think he's used to riding with like 3 more people on the back of that bike. What a legend.
I thinks it's some army/naval thing.
I bet he did that
Probably was in the army. That’s a normal protocol, judging by quantity of alcohol he consumed, he is not probably a pilot, although in Russia that’s not that uncommon to see pilots who drink.
Sir, The brakes are your pedals. Just move them in reverse
11:00
I never knew that.
@@miqueiaspissinin6527 not to mention its a ladies bike :)
@@crafter-grafter007 Now I just searched for the bike on da web . It´s true kk
Yup! just kick them back... But then again, those kind of brakes are illegal in the UK. So you can't blame Ben for not knowing that
Whaaat??! You never played soviet simulator?
You know its communist,right?
@@larrysmith4633 WE are not supposed to give OUR opinion
Hahaha
@@larrysmith4633 i'm not supposed to give my vodka ,but give it a try
Lmfao
How did this video miss me. This one was fantastic. Sergei is a legend. I am wishing him the best and hope he is safe and healthy in these crazy times.
Guy almost died like 3 times in the video
yes, almost @:)
The luck of the village drunkard is strong!!
4 times:
-climbing tower
-drunk motorcycling
-snake in toilet
-very drunk motorcycling
I suppose, that must be a lifetime limit, but not a half-day
Lol
"well I'm sober" that's the funniest line in all your videos😂
when he asks about the type of motorcycle, what bald says in russian is WAYY funnier
If you understand russian
@@denisg123 why not just say it -.-
"Now we're gonna buy something even more important than the bike..."
My thoughts: "A helmet?"
"VODKA"
FYI - Vodka (Water) is the Russian drink distilled from potatoes, He should have known/bought Horilka (Fire) which is the Ukrainian drink distilled from wheat.
@@Petescag vodka aint water, voda. And not horilka, its gorilka, its just ukrainian matter to say it. They also say hamburger instead of gamburger which would be correct in russian
He was in Ukraine so it is horika as spoken, not in Russian with the g.
