🇷🇺 'Don't go to Chechnya!' the UK government website says. For sure you will be kidnapped and killed. Well, it turns out that they don't know what they are talking about. All you will find here is beautiful landscapes, friendly people and great shashlik. Oh, and very persuasive taxi drivers! Big thanks to Ruslan for the tour. Muzhik! 👍🏻
Ruslan is honestly a credit to the taxi driver profession.
One of the things i love about this channel is the lack of flashy intros and graphics. Pls dont ever change, keep it real.
This guy is in Chechnya, in the deepest part of europe, randomly taking trains and buses to villages and old towns, only with a bag, pair of shoes and a mobile phone... incredible
mate, I dont take my dog for a walk without ID, and you just traveling up and down in Chechnya without papers?? you kidding me..😂😂🤣🤣👍
12:20 Ruslan says: “Like I told you: if a single hair drops from your head, I’ll be held responsible.” («Я же тебе говорю: хоть одна волосинка упадёт с тебя, с меня спрос будет») Guess he’s lucky Bald’s bald.
12:30 Driver actually said "If just one hair drops off your head then I'll be responsible for it" which means - Driver takes full responsibility over a foreigner since he is now a guest and guests are treated with respect and honour in Chechnya.
I’m a girl and this channel sometimes makes me wish I was a man so I could go on crazy adventures and not worry about being sexually assaulted by some weirdo, but luckily I can live vicariously through Mr Bald here
I think if this channel has proven anything, it's that slavic states have the best radio stations.
this guy has the biggest balls ive ever known a man to have, his week is filled with more adventure than my whole life has ever been
Why do I even pay for cable television.... this is all I need. Best channel ever
Mr. Bald: "Rrrjrruuutchtch murrjrrduu?" Random chechen: Switches off the safety lock of his kalashnikov
10:42 Mr bald: your not gonna sell me? Taxi: huh? Me bald: your not gonna sell me there? Taxi: you? *nervously laughs*
*"We've got soup with some kind of testicle in it"* This dude has been out of the comfort zone for so long he has become imune to freaking testicle soup
best comment
Bald almost daring the Taxi driver to kidnap him so he can have a tip
Was checking him for kidney function... maybe wasn't up to scratch.... : -)
The serious tension when he gets pulled up while still wearing a big fluffy hat really gets me
These videos restore my faith in humanity. When you stop seeing people the way your government wants you to see them you see you will find decent people anywhere you go
Bald, are you desperatly trying to get on the watchlist of every intelligence agency around the globe? 😀
bald stroking that hat every 15 seconds wishing he had hair
I like it how you give no political commentary. You just wander around and have fun like a normal human being.
I'm from Chechnya and you are a mad adventurer 😂😂😂 Loved it man, they are not used to tourists yet so don't be astonished if they stare at you the way they do. By the way the pronunciation of the Chechen expressions is on point 😂😂😂😂 at least the sounds.
I get the feeling they made him put that Akhmad Kadyrov images in at the end.
this is heaven, 18 mins of bald and bankrupt in russia!
Sorry I don't know much but isn't this europe?
@@ashwinraghunath4453 Technically yes... but realisticly it's culturally more aligned with Russia. You wouldn't go here and expect it to be anything like western Europe but more like Russia
@@ashwinraghunath4453 Chechnya is an autonomous republic in the European portion of Russia. Silly doopa.
@@ashwinraghunath4453 yes. Chechnya is still europe
Everywhere else in the world it`s a wig , In Chechnya it`s a hat .
Bald you have to go to Kalmykia next, Europe’s only Buddhist state.
On my way now
From coca leaves to testicles in under a week. This man needs an award!
Bald: there's no pavement Bald: Hey look a soviet pavement
I love how you made Ruslan pull over so you can show off a bus stop.
A Englishman driving around Chechnya in an American car, what a world.
I think Ruslan didn't convinced you to stay with him, he just locked the doors 😂
How about going to vladivostok? I think you would like it.
Russian dude walking by. Bald: 👀 Look 🤲, a Soviet Soviet.
"Wow look at the mountains of Chechnya! Imagine falling off here!" Why is he so optimistic!? 😂
Ruslan was amazing! I even felt safe traveling with him and I'm on the other side of the KZhead! 🤗
You in Andrew Anderson s comments too
2:00 "Its not a place to make enemys" the irony lol
This looks like a Call Of Duty modern warfare map
KZhead: hey wanna watch this random English guy travel across the arse-end of nowhere? Me at 3 am: wtf why woul-.. actually, yeah, go on then.
Бенджамин - Как называется башня? Руслан - Башня.
Something about this video reminded me of when I first found this channel and binge watched pretty much every video. I really enjoyed this one I can't wait for the next video.
Russians joking in comments: His chechen accent is better than chechens actual accent
From all this videos i understand just 1 thing. All people are brothers and all people must be friendly with each other
"Красивый машина есть, как бедный?" - это звучало больше по-чеченски, чем звучат сами чеченцы. Быстро учишься, молодец.
The “Bus stop” looks like it was designed to act as a defensive position for a road block.
15:03 my engine trying to start at -40C
Just keep proclaiming "Khabib number one!" and you'll do fine.
I'm curious to see your backpack and what you carry with you on your travels.
Everywhere this man visits could be a new location for a far cry game 😂
Ruslan is the hero we didnt expect, but needed.
You're so brave: I'm Russian and I can't even imagine the reason I would go to Chechnya. Honestly.
Every upload is just a “subscribers I’m still alive” notification now 😂
Lol! So true! Glad he’s safe
For real 😂
The last seconds of the video with “Don’t be afraid to visit Chechnya” and “memorial” Ahmad Kadyrov picture at the end and your comment that you have crazy mad thing to share when you reach safe place made me think that you got censored by chechens lmao
I'd feel safer in Chechnya than Mexico that's for sure.
It's really refreshing to see a travel vlog done by someone who knows his stuff! Thank you!
I love when Bald finds a random taxi driver that takes him on a wild adventure. Shows just how different he is from other travel-like channels. The fact that he’s eating a hearty meal after all of this driving is warming to the heart. I simply love this channel, thank you bald for these videos
When you watch these videos you dont know what to expect but you know it's going to be good.
“It’s easy to die in the Caucasus’s they drive like mad men” At least put your seatbelt on bald 😂😂
Instant sub, so refreshing to see a travel vlog without all the flashy gimmicky editing and music and the overly (fake) enthusiastic twentysomething vlogger... just kidding, you're obviously a twentysomething ;) You're style is so basic and down to earth and you're genuinely interesting to watch! Keep it up!
So strange to see the city. The war was so long ago, but those images of a battered grozny is all I know of Chechnya.
How to say 'how are you' in Chechen: Orcs, Mordor!
I'm indian, I lived grozny, chechnya for 3 months, beautiful place with kind hearted peoples !!!
Imagine being bald’s taxi driver and going on a whole trip with him without actually knowing who he is
I can see the taxi driver regretting his decision after having to stop and look at the soviet bus stop
He is so friendly, he makes friends where ever he goes.
Try being friendly and speak English only.
I'm from new Zealand and I love your vids I had no interest in the country of Russia but watching you and all your history adventures is making me fall in love with Russia as I too love to visit and learn about history . keep up the good work love how you keep it real
Ruslan was a decent bodyguard and tour guide
"When we go back we will reach more adventures" 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Ruslan 2019
I’ve found from watching your videos Midwestern America where I live is almost the exact same as Russia and Eastern Europe. It kind of surprised me because were taught to hate them and them to hate us.
For somewhere as 'dangerous' as Chechnya is known for it seems to be a really pretty place with respectful people as long as you speak politely and have a sense of humour, plus Ruslan made the video even better than it was.
Slowly getting through all your videos, keep up the great work. Love how friendly and respectful you are to the locals 👍👍
That hat looks like it was made from Jeff's mum.
"I'm not going to make any jokes about Chechnya and be super respectful because it's not a place to make enemies." Seems like it was too late for that already.
One of the best episodes yet! I'm too type A personality to go on a random adventure like that. We live vicariously through you big H! Keep the new content coming!
Bro you literally have one of the best channels on KZhead or TV period. I can't believe I just found out about you last week, I wish I had been watching this all along. Awesome videos man. Keep them the exact same way. Never change. Just awesome buddy. Thanks for the entertainment.
18:04 -Как «приятного аппетита» на вашем языке? -Рот закрой
"Rush Mordor"
I'm from Ireland and i'd love to visit Chechnya one day seems like a lovely place with great people
I was in Chechen earlier this year and LOVED IT! It was my first time in The Russian Federation. I hope to go back.
Still sketchy, but feels less dangerous than Bolivia's cartel land
Bald in other regions: alpha male Bald in Chechnya : beta male
🤣🤣🤣
Ooof
Just totally great to watch , as always :) Thanks for doing that and Greetings from WW2HistoryHunter.
Good to see you're still alive after your Bolivia trip.
love every video you put out. i know you've heard it 100 times before but you really give me an insight to a world i know i most likely will never get to explore. keep on keepin on.
I've never seen a channel blow up quite as fast as yours but all of your videos are gold! Keep crushing it dude! Cheers from the USA!
The video quality is awesome Ben! Love the hat my friend! Be safe, much love and respect from the states...
I'm so envious everytime I see these videos of you going into mountains.
This is seriously good I’m glued to the screen, very impressed! Both content, and production values way beyond expectations. Best of luck with your channel.
I was in tears when he was teaching you how to pronounce the word
Ruslan was comfy and enjoyed the banter, those defensive towers were indeed interesting.
Okay, now I want to go to Chechnya! It's so beautiful there!
Nothing makes me happier than watching your videos. Keep it up!
He literally drove you into the mountains. I would've shat my pants at that point.
I shat my pants just watching it...
whats so dangerous about chechen mountains?
Stop being a pussy mate.
You and Ruslan going back and forth about how to pronounce, "how are you" had me dying 😂
When they put that hat on you I nearly cried with laughter , Khabib would be proud !!
Much love to my Chechens warrior from Mexico! Long live Chechnya and the Caucasus
I really love these videos. When ever a new one comes out I always make sure to watch it right away :)
Russia and the former USSR states are wonderful with some of the most lovely and warm people in the world . It’s just they have been labeled otherwise.. it’s untrue. Way safe than Latin America .
I absolutely love all of your videos. Thank you for uploading.
Sleep at 6:00AM wakes up at 3 o'clock in the afternoon. "I had a little sleep"
Yes Bald is back!!! When are you going back to see Kolya in the radiation zone?
I'll go sometime in winter to see how he is
This is the best content I’ve run across on KZhead in a while!
18:05 Bald was so off with his pronunciation and Ruslan didn’t even bother to correct him 😂 But at least he tried 👍
