Dude the fact that you have gone back three times and seen the same guy is amazing. Do you understand how happy you have made that man?! You are something else ! Keep at it man and much love from Minnesota 🤟
I'm more emotionally attached to the well-being of a random man in the radiation zone of a country I''ll likely never visit than I would ever have thought I'd be. Great to see Kolya again.
Mr. Bald. You are an absolutely AMAZING person. Making two lonely old men share some companionship in a rather desolated place. That's really heartwarming.
This series with Koyla is my favourite . Mom had Parkinson’s, and I can’t imagine her alone in the woods , no support . Thank you for your kindness , Bald .
Well he’s old school as fuck, so being alone doesn’t phase him. He even said in his first appearance on Bald’s channel he never *once* got scared being out in the radiated Forrest alone. I’m sure he drinks so much because that’s his culture and everyone he’s ever been close to has passed, but he’s a champion. Fucking legend
My interpretation is one should give advice but it should be realistic. Not some story filled with colourful words which many so called motivational speakers do.
@@wecandoit740 Familiar people often recall this expression when they parted, if they don’t know when their new meeting will take place, but they hope to see each other again. Although now rarely hear this proverb
Very emotional moment watching that poor old shaking man pointing to his family members on the was memorial. I presume he is the only one who keeps it tidy,
In FSU countries, there’s a memorial in every village. Cities have one in every region. Germans killed that many people in their attempt to enslave the world to serve “the master race” of Aryans. An Aryan is not simply, “blue-eyed, blond-haired” as western history books say. An Aryan is an occultic term describing people with high percentage of Nephilim blood.
@@KJKP Know defending the horrible things that Nazi Germany did, but these memorials in Russia are just propaganda... Why not build that many memorials for the estimated tens of millions that died under Stalin?
If more people would follow your example of non judgmental acceptance of others the world would be a far better place than it now is. This is TRUE philanthropy. Respect and best wishes from the East Kentucky mountains.
Hey everyone! Long time no see...I had to take a bit of time to relax after the brutality of provincial Russian hotel beds and eating only borsch and oily cutlets of unidentifiable meat for 5 weeks. I'm going to chill until the 10th of October and then I'll hit the road again. In the meantime I'll do a deleted scenes video and Q&A to keep things moving. Was a great trip but man I missed my bed. Spasibo bratans!
9:49 sad to see kolya limping away at the end there knowing thats probably the last human contact he'll have in probably weeks or even months, who knows.
The Rt Hon. Dr. Janos he may like his solitude most of the time. He seems in ill health like he has palsy or something too. Yet he walks all over the place and gets through winter somehow in his little uninsulated home.
@CallOfDrewthulhu I should put it this way: "I always appreciate a good advise, but ""Do not drink all of your money" - it's just a fairy tale, and we both know it..."

And for all the trolls that makes fun of this man, you should be ashamed of yourselves. You couldn't walk then steps in this man's shoes
I don't think he is wanting pity, he lives his life his way going from bottle to bottle as he looks incredibly world weary more than anything, a tough breed over there that endured some pretty hard times living hand to mouth during the shortages that plagued the Soviet empire (but strangely not the elite part of Soviet society) then to see it all collapse, no more wages until rising star Putin pulled the country up literally through sheer strength of will and vision and it is a little better these days, more rich people about but the poor are still poor with no visible signs of escape from poverty but they get by best they can.

Mr Bald one of the best things ive done this year is find your channel. I have watched every video and enjoyed your travels so much.

What I thought was wonderful was the fact - out of respect - he didn't look at the money when receiving it to see how much was there but just thanked Ben.
I’ve been raised to always accept a gift from a friend and sincerely be grateful. I feel it’s a privilege to receive a gift. I also, like Kolia, never look how much it is. Just the fact getting a gift is beautiful. However, in Kolias case I hope he not get a hart attach after discovering the amount.
good insight. I could be wrong, but I believe that in Anglo countries, the ritual of gift giving involves a small ritual of refusing the gift, and the "reluctantly" accepting it once the giver insists you take it. In other cultures, or especially with the people who actually really desperately need the gift, they dont partake in the refusal ritual and instead jsut accept the gift with profuse thanks. I.E> "dont look a gift horse in the mouth" as we say in the US.
@@grontelp77 good insight but ive heard in arab countries they refuse the gift 7 times and then take it . i think its 7, its some exact number. Would be amusing to witness.

I normally dont comment on videos because I watch a lot of them, but the hug he gives you at the end reminded me of the hugs my dad gives me. Koyla really loves you man and it is so heartwarming to see you doing things like this. Thank You.
Most people in the world are more good than bad. We are all human and merely humans. We are prone to selfishness and greed, among other things. You cannot change someone else's free will, only you as an individual can change your free will. Be the best person you can be.
All this reminds me of one grandpa who lived alone with his goat in deserted village in my country. Some TV guy made an episode about his life where old grandpa said he only fears that death will catch him on his every day walk to the barn where he kept his goat, he feared it because wolves would eat his body. So he prayed to god that he die in his bed, next time TV guy came to find that grandpa died and his grandson found him in his bed. Man its sad how some people live, but on the other hand there is always something special about them, Kolya is obviously wise man behind the drunkard appearance.
you can tell that bald really cares about kolya not because the money or the food from the grocery but because he tried to find him community and friends
@@peaceonearth351 so true, i will always support with this old guy hope everyone else does to, poor old fella lets make his life better as much as we can
@Harold Potsdamer True but the bombs dropped there were atomic bombs, not nuclear which would have been worse. There is still and was radioactivity but not to the levels of Chernobyl. The exclusion zone they are in is from Chernobyls reactor leaking radiation, which would be much more concentrated and stronger. I'm not really sure what long term radiation does to a person, I was just kinda being a smart ass in my first comment lol.
@Thomas Victorianparalyzed will to change things, this is very soviet indeed, but sad in its own way. People don't care about their lives, have no goals in life, use alcohol as an escape, as if it's gulag and they are doomed while they're not. We are waiting for this mentality to die, only then Russia and other post-soviet countries can be a better place. Times are not changing by themselves, people change them.
Man kolya is the type of guy I would give everything to, a new home, clothes, a night out for some women, just to make that man happy because boy he is probably lonely and bored all the time, and I can relate to that. Bless him and I hope he lives for a long while and will enjoy that money!
He is at the age where he needs someone to take care of him, food, clothes etc. I hope there is golden hearted human who will help out this grandfather.
The old fable of Kolya: Death had come for everyone he knew. It came at night when there was no moonlight. knocked on the doors of the houses and villages. After some time, Kolya was alone. Death came and knocked on his door on dark nights. But Kolya did not answer. Kolya would not answer.
Mr. Bald, that was so sweet what you did, giving to others who have so little brings the greatest joy in life. I hope you reap the reward many times over for your kindness and generosity.
He says he's at peace, and I believe him. He's surely used to it and is probably living happily with the little he got, and now he knows there are hundreds of thousands of people who will remember him. Hurts to say it but he's not going to last long anymore, but at least he's getting some fantastic memories to cherish. Bless that fella, and bless Bald
At 6:20 I bet that dood felt mellow & empty inside when his bottle spilled. He must have felt like a small part inside him died at that moment. PS: Kolya rocking a vodka bottle in his coat pocket must be like someone showing off latest iPhone 11 in my part of the world.

When asked if he misses her, I never heard a person say "NO!" so fast. Kolya is da bomb.
A real man quote by Kolya
Deep shit.
@Kyril J he meant it most likely
He actually said something more like "she's not a woman that is worth thinking about". Not quite, but definitely not what Bald subtitled
one thing I like about him is that when he wakes up he gets dressed and tucks his shirt in puts a jacket on. Even though his clothes are dirty and rugged he still holds the routine of being in his mind presentable to go about his daily routine.

Why do you hit me in the feelz? Faith in humanity restored.
Most people in the world are more good than bad. We are all human and merely humans. We are prone to selfishness and greed, among other things. You cannot change someone else's free will, only you as an individual can change your free will. Be the best person you can be.

You took the words right from my mouth.
"Advice is the best thing of all but a story is just a story" this hit me so hard.
slightly alcoholic cat a story is nothing without a lesson. Advice given right away, without any wasted time (a story) is a blessing.
i felt that.
I'm from Russia,but even i dont understand what says Kolya
All this reminds me of one grandpa who lived alone with his goat in deserted village in my country. Some TV guy made an episode about his life where old grandpa said he only fears that death will catch him on his every day walk to the barn where he kept his goat, he feared it because wolves would eat his body. So he prayed to god that he die in his bed, next time TV guy came to find that grandpa died and his grandson found him in his bed.
Man its sad how some people live, but on the other hand there is always something special about them, Kolya is obviously wise man behind the drunkard appearance.
Man .... :\
"To be human some time its difficult"
Kolya
ARSLAN AZIZ why u copying comments
Bald why didn't you gave "Kolya's T-Shirt" to him? He for sure would love it!
Intelligent Mastermind kinda Korny. To have a t shirt with your face on it. And every t shirt sold means more
Money ! ;)
I think he’d prefer a Vodka bottle with his face on it 😅
@@RIPSHITnBUST indeed, his liver would not accept all this money
He would probably not understand the concept and why Bald is doing it.
you can tell that bald really cares about kolya not because the money or the food from the grocery but because he tried to find him community and friends
You. Must. Visit him again. Its not about content , but friendship!
Set up something where we could send little bit of money each month I'm betting £20 would go a long way there
Hey I've seen his house in cod modern warfare in all gillied up
Hey brother
Lmao
xD
ur ruddddde 😂😂😂😂😂
Nonce
Giving comfort to the dying. What a noble mission in life.
Russell Bell not with those newspaper cigarettes lol
@Russell Bell yeah, this guys gonna live another 20 years haha. I don't think he's older than 65 by much.
We're all on the clock my man. Let's not pretend.
Ha, these replies brought such levity, and I agree OP 🍷💔
Maybe a cherNoble mission in life
"It's actually really warm in here"
My brain: rAdIaTiOn
"Ah it's because of the oven"
My brain: that too.
Kolya is loved by thousands and he doesn't even know it.
I rekon he kinda does
Bald told him in one of the pasy vids that millions know him
he doesn't give a rat's ass about youtube hype. He is after real stuff.
this is the best of content that you can make. awesome job mr. Bald
so glad you went back, please keep checking on him every 3 or so months
Yeah, he needs someone to check on him. Looking kinda rugged.
@@peaceonearth351 so true, i will always support with this old guy hope everyone else does to, poor old fella lets make his life better as much as we can
@Harold Potsdamer or radiation lol
@Harold Potsdamer True but the bombs dropped there were atomic bombs, not nuclear which would have been worse. There is still and was radioactivity but not to the levels of Chernobyl. The exclusion zone they are in is from Chernobyls reactor leaking radiation, which would be much more concentrated and stronger. I'm not really sure what long term radiation does to a person, I was just kinda being a smart ass in my first comment lol.
why don't you go check on him but tell others to do so if you care so much internet moral high ground guy
Am I the only one that's shocked that Kolya turned out to be Stalin?
im crying my eyes out right now. the light you bring to this poor dude's life is amazing
@Thomas Victorianparalyzed will to change things, this is very soviet indeed, but sad in its own way. People don't care about their lives, have no goals in life, use alcohol as an escape, as if it's gulag and they are doomed while they're not. We are waiting for this mentality to die, only then Russia and other post-soviet countries can be a better place. Times are not changing by themselves, people change them.
Man kolya is the type of guy I would give everything to, a new home, clothes, a night out for some women, just to make that man happy because boy he is probably lonely and bored all the time, and I can relate to that. Bless him and I hope he lives for a long while and will enjoy that money!
There's more like him unfortunately, some are even more worse off.
-Were you ever married?
-Yes, she is somewhere in Ukraine..
-Do you miss her?
-NIET ( 2:58 )
I LOLd hard
did you understand what he was saying..he doesnt think about all the bitches he had ...lol
@@teknowil 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
Marcus Stempa NIEEETTT
Like a boss!
Any chance you will staying a night at koylas house to see if someone knocks on the door at night?
Its a good thing he didn't answer the door. That knocking was a dogman and opening the door is a sign that you are letting them in.
@@CooterCoy what makes you so positive it's a dogman? especially in Belarus?
Isn't the Dogman from the Michigan's folklore? What would that creature do in Ukraine?
That or the KGB looking to crack some skull
@@luqman.mp3434 im also curius to find out what a dogman is.
meeting Bold for Kolya is like for Robinson Crusoe meeting Friday
I'm glad that he's too old to be turned into a slave.
He is at the age where he needs someone to take care of him, food, clothes etc.
I hope there is golden hearted human who will help out this grandfather.
Boono his name is bald and bankrupt
@@animosiity i think he was talking about kolya
Animosity lol
@@Pipur989 and Animosity was talking about the gold hearted human that is helping out kolya
That " someone" should be you.
The old fable of Kolya: Death had come for everyone he knew. It came at night when there was no moonlight. knocked on the doors of the houses and villages. After some time, Kolya was alone. Death came and knocked on his door on dark nights. But Kolya did not answer. Kolya would not answer.
Is that a few lines from a new book you are writing? lol, i love it
Well said
Just awesome. Hope brother Bald reads your post!
Dang - you just gave me the shivers!!
Bravo 👏 Bravo 👏
0:45 that hug! he surely missed you
Oh my favourite bald+vodka+radiation...
Love to see kolya again.
The excitement when you met him again...amazing!
Pretty funny though, that Kolya was wanting a drink right away.
Never clicked so fast! Keep up the amazing work bald :)
English guy who speaks russian kidnaps old russian man and releases him after the victim buys vodka
That was so sweet of you giving him the money ❤️
Really nice, the look of gratitude that he had.
Now he can open his own hotel
@@ivanbregar1646 Ho-Tel? lol
Its probably his ex wife knocking on his window.
But in all seriousness hopefully its just the wind
"Where is my alimony Kolja!"
@@twelvelookslike aergh, not the ghost of his exwife :-o
@οὐτόπος Kolya will be firm, and say No! butt show the place for her bunk :-)
Maybe bald and bankrupt subscribers searching for him
Most likely a Russian big foot
You are a really nice person. Some times the smallest of gestures can have the biggest impact. Thanks for brightening my morning!
Mr. Bald, that was so sweet what you did, giving to others who have so little brings the greatest joy in life. I hope you reap the reward many times over for your kindness and generosity.
Youre a very kind man bald, keep visiting him at least every 3 months or so
It makes me so sad seeing him like that 😭 he seems so alone
He says he's at peace, and I believe him. He's surely used to it and is probably living happily with the little he got, and now he knows there are hundreds of thousands of people who will remember him. Hurts to say it but he's not going to last long anymore, but at least he's getting some fantastic memories to cherish. Bless that fella, and bless Bald
alone, and the market must very far away from his house, long walk..
MrFaktenFaktenFakten - not any more with his new friend
He just met gold digger.
Maybe he is at Chernobly zone?lol
At 6:20
I bet that dood felt mellow & empty inside when his bottle spilled. He must have felt like a small part inside him died at that moment.
PS: Kolya rocking a vodka bottle in his coat pocket must be like someone showing off latest iPhone 11 in my part of the world.
Hold on
Sausages got those anti theft things in russia?
I will personally fight the next person who knocks on kolya’s door in the night and scares my man again
Knock Knock ...
@@labinthapa5957 Whos there
I personally think its a hallucination because of his Parkinsons, I could be wrong however.
