@@bigfloppa5731 I understand that because it’s two countries their time zones will be different. However wont the physical act of sunrise and the sun setting be at the same time due to proximity?
it must be very cool living here you could literally walk to Russia You can even stand on the international date line and be 12 hours ahead in time lol
You could literally walk to Russia, but you cannot do it legally. There is a Russian military base on Big Diomede, and they are strictly against people walking, swimming, or kayaking onto their land from the USA. To do it legally, you have to go from an official passport control in the USA, and enter Russia at an official passport control. The nearest ones are in Nome AK, and Provedinia, Chukotka, Russia, which are nowhere near within walking distance
There's major activity from all branches of the U.S. armed forces in and around Alaska, as well as Russian border guards on the opposing side so, I'd make sure your passport is valid lol.
Actually as someone whose born in Honolulu and raised in Aiea you are quite a bit far off as the half point of the globe is at the Equator and we are no where near the Equator the country at the Equator is Ecuador.
They where erested cause they went to the russian island wich is elegal your not allowed to cross the ice into russia cause its to colf for border gaurs so they elegaly crossed the border into russia
I was looking around on the map and was like “woe look how close Alaska and Russia are!” Then I zoomed in and was like “OH MY GOD THERES A LITTLE ISLAND BETWEEN RUSSIA AND ALASKA!”
Been there and it's awesome, but a Russia community not far from Diomede have a lodge, ski resort and some full time residents watching the Alaska state troopers come in. That's their entertainment!
On January 17, 2023 in Wales, AK (which is a village right across Little Diomede in mainland Alaska) there was a Polar Bear attack that killed a mother and her son and it was basically like that episode of American Dad where Stan and Roger are at a Zoo and a polar bear fights Stan and eats his legs after
Part of me wishes I can walk away from all my big city stresses and people and just live out the rest of my days in this land. I'm in Dallas Tx but sometimes I think my spirit belongs in a place like this... basically giving a big F.U. to the rest of civilization.
@jojofromtx I've met some damned hearty Texans in Alaska that adapted nicely. Pilots mainly and a state trooper. The place isn't for everyone that's for sure. It's the Canadian version of America.
That little moan @ 1:35 sounded really weird and like it was added in post production... Am I the only one that thinks that? Why would you add that? lmao
Peaceful, natural living. As a born and bred NYC'r sometimes I think that living like this is better. With nature. What do they do to get electricity? Generators?
Another name for the Russian 'Big Diomede Island' is 'Tomorrow Island', due to its location on the international date line. The history behind the plane crash is quite strange and dates back to September 1971. It was a regular Russian flight which was to deliver mail, supplies and goods to the forward russian outpost at the big island. The Li-2 aircraft brought ballots to Ratmanov Island. It threw out the packages at the outpost and did not pull up in time because of a downdraft and low clouds. So because of cloud cover and weather conditions the plane met with weather disturbance. The pilot had no option but to crash land the plane. So the plane crashed and none of the crew of 4 suffered any life threatening injuries except for some bruises and broken bones. They spent the night at the crash site and the next day they were rescued by helicopter. The plane is a Lisunov Li-2. This is a version of the Douglas DC3/C47 Dakota built under licence in Russia and Uzbekistan before and during WW2.
lyn coxx made a swim between the little and big diomede..2.4miles but when i see the map the wales ,alaska and chukotka autonomous/laguna uellen..u can see they are as the crow flies shortest but goggle map cant give u the measurement...??? strange
@ThomasisaMAN Maybe they will? Maybe they have? Alaska is a world unto itself up there, disconnected from mainland USA, and presents some unique living habits, career choices, natural habitats, and weather conditions. Texas, while also huge, is connected and relatively similar to mainland US living. You can always read their magazine for more information. I'm guess somewhere in their history they have printed articles numerous times about Texas. I don't know the answer, though.
"Where else in law enforcement are you going to land a plan on ice in the bearing straight." Yes... you are correct. But given that there is only one place where that statement could be true... I feel like it goes without saying.
I am Not sure but There are not maritime border between 2 islands when the sea of the strait is freeze...only the border land is the line which separate both countries...
It's amazing, that comments made on these two islands mention, crossing the globe? We live on a flat non moving surface, it's only four thousand miles in a radius of just under 8000 miles in diameter, As In A Plate, looking down from the satellites suspended by balloons!
Military and border aside, it'd have nothing but -50 degress on the other side. You'll have to walk for a few hundred miles before you can find another human being.. I think putting guards up there is quiet pointless, at least in winter. If you want to insert troops or illegally crossover for whatever reasons, there are better options.
There is actually a small group of border guards on the Russian side. The only inhabitants on the Russian island. There actually used to be permanent inhabitants on the Russian side but after ww2 the Soviets forced them to mainland Russia
Let me tell you the flat earth realization brought me here Yesterday Island aka Little Diomede on the U.S Alaska side and Tomorrow Island AKA Big Diomede on the Russian side which is ONLY ABOUT 3MILE APART!!!!!MY MIND IS BLOWN🤯🤯🤯!!! RUSSIANS CAN AND DO DRIVE TO THE US SIDE IN LESS THAN 10MINS!!!!!! I PRAY THAT IT WILL CLICK IN PEOPLE 'S HEAD!!! The movie Tomorrow Island always went over my head because I would never had thought it was a real place!!!!!!

id love to go there but i wouldnt wanna live there
Dandan I don't think it's frozen all year round but I could be wrong
@Dandan because there is literally nothing to see there except a weather station.
not 12 hours. Nearly 24 hours. Diomede timezone is GMT-9, while the most eastern part of russia is GMT+12.
People who live here must really, really know to to survive.
So I guess there are times you could walk over to Russia if you were really determined to.
Marley robertson there’s a Russian border guard post on the other island and from what was said in another episode it’s not a good idea to cross over
Nobody has been there since the fall of the Soviet Union... But then again, i suppose they would have a few guards
@@thegrouchdrag0n132 The FSB DO have border patrol there. You would likely get arrested if they catch you over there.
Their military is on that Island

Imagine traveling from here to Hawaii. You crossed half the globe but you didn't leave the country.

Leave it to Russia to get the bigger island as if their country wasn't already big enough while USA got the smaller one.
It would be complex af since the American island would be near Russia and Russian one on near America which might have caused some tensions
Sounds like my weed eater that refuses to ever start
