It's always a great day when there's new Vagabond videos. You're fantastic and I'm always looking forward to watching your videos and learning about wherever you're taking us.
You're videos are incredible. The history in your storytelling is amazing. You give what most people would think is boring and dull, actual life such as these towns. You ask locals about their expereinces and it great to hear those stories that would otherwise go unheard. I was really impressed with how well the city is maintained even though it struggling to stay alive.
I really liked the interviews. It would be interesting to see similar interviews form other parts of Russia, Central Asia and so on. Hope to see more of it
What a pity that again this is an old video from 2022. But at least, as you edited it now in 2023, it shows that you are well. That' s an important message for us viewers.👍👍👍
Congratulations Ivan. I love watching your videos,. Such a great blend of exploring and learning about Russia and it's history. Thank you for terrific work.
Awesome video, I want to explore Russia so bad,l but I can’t read or speak any Russian. I’ll be fine in the big cities, and yeah I’d be able to survive in rural Russia, buy food and hotel rooms etc, but I wouldn’t be able to engage in half of the activities you do or in 90% of the conversations. I think it would be very challenging without knowing Russian. I’ll learn 😭 I’ll go in a few years when I’m done with school
ok theres you . shiey,, gifgas badcat .. which other channels like this or from same crew are there mate ???... love these train hopping and explore vids cheers
Love your videos, very interesting, organic and captivating. Your footage is excellent and you have shown us many really unique places. Keep them coming please.
Very good nice entertaining, informative episode... ur 1 of few channels i can really apreciate... About the human state of mind/condition... past and todays... Ur Country is beautifull... Shame human behaviour/selfishness like anywhere else in the world made alot of damage to it. But still I love ur channel.
Love to watch your videos my man, it gives a lot us of perspective and insight, and in my opinion show that all us humans are alike all across the globe. Governments may do dumb stuff, but through it all we are human. Humans don't hate each other, governments do , and make us fight, tho we may not want it
It’s a shame the environmentalists don’t understand that nuclear power is a lot more environmentally-friendly than any other type of power generation. Modern reactors are very safe, Chernobyl only happened because they were doing a dangerous test and the reactor had flaws.
So everyone started building better ones. And then Fukushima happened. The problem has always been: if things go wrong, they go really wrong. As a temporary solution, I think nuclear is the way to go, but in the long run, we should not persevere with it.
@@kitosjek9541I know right? They had a gazillion experts telling them it's fine and modern reactors are safe, of course. In hindsight, we can all say what went wrong. The problem is: it went wrong and really wrong. You just don't know what the next surprise is going to be.
I guess it also had to do with the economic chaos of those very last years of the USSR/first years of the Russian state. Those gargantuan changes ripped the entire economy apart.
Dude, you have a crazy potentiality, you are a great storyteller and the filming skills is very amazing. But..........please do something for the audio. it ruins the great video everytime. Thanks
It's not bleak living in in provincial russia when you have the dear leader of the nation v. Putin with his immense power and unmatched geopolitical wisdom shining like 1000 suns upon the vast expanses of russia filling it's populations hearts with pride and adoration. Not bleak at all.
55°27'0.77"N 51°17'26.61"E Looking at the location on Google Earth and time stamp 2004-2020 and the drone footage at 10:20 it seems the old location is being demolished and returned to nature. Is this because Moscow policy or are materials re-used by locals?
I am surprised that more cities in cold climates don't do what that one city in Quebec did. Build everything in one big building so that you don't have to go outside to access things like grocery, movie theatre, your apartment, etc. It is all in one with everything linked together.
Just to be sure I got this correct. If rent is on Average $250 USD, but the pay is around $280 USD, then how do you have any money for things likes utilities, gas etc?
So many vibrant cities and towns all over the former USSR that got abandoned this way in the final years of the union or the first years of the new republics. And still suffering to this day. Truly outrageous.
It is tremendous effort, but who suggested it was all for nothing? His hard work is paying off because his channel is growing. Quality speaks for itself.
Hello from SE USA! I like to learn of Russia. This town is maybe the size of my own in population. Very interesting to see the development of the city that never became what it was obviously planned to be. I consider present activities in Ukraine; the west wants to take for itself resources that are specifically East Europeans birthright. No western-funded zLENDsky in this city! Yet, effects are the same! I support the Russian Federation. Thank you for this video!
It's always a great day when there's new Vagabond videos.
You're fantastic and I'm always looking forward to watching your videos and learning about wherever you're taking us.
Congratulations on the 100k. Well deserved!
Impressive how well maintained the panelkas are, given that the town is essentially a "failed/abandoned" project.

Fascinating as always. Always very interesting when you get an opportunity to interview the locals.
Excellent video 👍🏴

It is so nice to see your videos, my friend, Russian history is so fascinating. That mystery from time to time has surrounded it. New subscriber here!
fascinating stuff. Thankyou for posting!

Video is great! The accent is still brutal after the years. 😀
The deadpan delivery of "we have discovered the second casino, which is called Manhattan. Accidentally." made me laugh out loud
Love your videos, very interesting, organic and captivating. Your footage is excellent and you have shown us many really unique places. Keep them coming please.

Very good nice entertaining, informative episode...

About the human state of mind/condition... past and todays...
Ur Country is beautifull...
Shame human behaviour/selfishness
like anywhere else in the world made alot of damage to it.
But still I love ur channel.
A rising GDP by an outside company is nearly always bad for locals. luv your vids dude.
Neoliberalism 101
subbed.
please get some wind protections for the mic, this is hard to listen too :) Super interesting video though!
Looks amazing
I want to live there

@@chelidonszVery well possible. The reasons don't really matter for the end result though.
You have already snow in the East in Tatarstan? It is time to bring the skies out!
Dude, you have a crazy potentiality, you are a great storyteller and the filming skills is very amazing. But..........please do something for the audio. it ruins the great video everytime. Thanks
Well, some of these videos were filmed a year ago. So the difference in quality is when it was filmed.
Very interesting and informative. Miss the music 😜
Nice how friendly the locals are. Seems rather bleak to live there though.

What !!There is snow in summer and the weather seems cold...that reminded me of Yakutsk, the coldest city in the world

ПРИВЕТ, МОЛОДЕЦ 👍
Татарская Припять.
Hey mate! Can i make request? Can you visit coty where russian locomotives 🚂 made?
Amazing and well maintained town, kind of beautiful too
New sub here bro, I love your channel. Russia is absolutely gigantic.
Is this an old video, or are they already covered in snow!?!?
i once dated a russian girl from Almetyevsk witch is close to that town

Сеголня уже есть снег в этом городе?? Привет из Америки)
Older video 😊
What is the current population?
Just to be sure I got this correct. If rent is on Average $250 USD, but the pay is around $280 USD, then how do you have any money for things likes utilities, gas etc?
@@MickeyMishra Most of people own their apartment, not rent.
So many vibrant cities and towns all over the former USSR that got abandoned this way in the final years of the union or the first years of the new republics. And still suffering to this day. Truly outrageous.
Viewers often don’t understand the tremendous effort, time and money that goes into making these videos... All for essentially -nothing(?)
It is tremendous effort, but who suggested it was all for nothing? His hard work is paying off because his channel is growing. Quality speaks for itself.

Always big promises from the oligarchs, all to go in their own pockets at the end. I feel for these forgotten people.
My father's family left Russia in the 1960s. Seeing terrible places like this, I am SO glad that they escaped.
