🇷🇺 I decided to head south to the snowy peaks of the Caucasus that divide Europe from Asia. But before I could board my train to Grozny, the capital of Chechnya, I had to work out what exactly a bloody 'put and platform' is. Fortunately a one legged local helped me...Yes I'm back in Russia!
"Dictatorship" *breaks out laughing* why did I find that so great
That was one of my favourite parts as well.
The guy from Azerbaijan, that you met at the train station, is a famous poker player called Ilkin Savalan Amirov. A celebrity from Azerbaijan!!!
He made more friends that night than I have the past 5 years lol.
Finally left dangerous Bolivia so you can go to the peace and safety of Chechnya.
2:12 The guy laughing about the dictatorship in his country is a mood.
It feels safer watching this than when you were in Bolivia.
True
Well, Chechnya is pretty crazy too in shady places.
4 the views unless, I'm mistaken...
@simple simple Yeah, he was definitely playing with fire. Lucky he didn't try it in El Salvador or Hondurus
having his leg "burn off" must have been a horrific experience...
What's super interesting is how much higher his voice goes when he reverts back to English.
Bald back in his home territories, you can really see how happy he feels.

Keshakk Che a simple condom can reduce the chances of getting hiv drastically, although modern anti-hiv treatment will let you live as long as a healthy person
@@caim3465 and gonorhea and many other diseases
Back in the USSR. You don't know how lucky you are boy.
Bald is glowing as he's back in his spiritual homelands
Zurdaso Kelju the Caucasus Mountain
He feels he is back home in England or at least we do so
@Al Castill lol
That's just the stash of coca leaves he brought with him.
Damn this snowy trainstation at night has something so romantic. Almost like in a dream
"Rich country, poor people" default story of all ex-Soviet Union countries.
I feel more relaxed when you’re exploring Chechnya, over South America.
today Chechnya is probably the safest region in Russia
@@USSRPhoto Unless you're gay, against islam, and love to drink alcohol outside
I fear a little for his safety when he goes on these journeys. Don't know what I would do without watching his videos and his beautiful shiny bald head on YT!
@@erichopp244 true, I was speaking strictly criminal stats
@@erichopp244it's easy to hide it if you are gay and simply don't drink alcohol in public, and if you are against Islam hide it, just like if you were against Judaism in a western country you need to hide it or you will be called a nazi and anti-Semitic.
This is a pre recording uploaded by his team,bald actually died in Bolivia i can confirm
😂
Nah he’s safe cause he even mentioned his fav coca leaves in this vid☝🏼😂
@@badbrothers7723 he was taking piss a little
@@badbrothers7723 woooshhhh
@@badbrothers7723 you're really fun at parties aren't you
imagine losing your leg and see a tall bald man approach you commenting on your soviet leg
That snowy, foggy night was so poetic. It was so calming for some reason.
Imagine riding a train in 1st class in Russia, its snowing heavy, you drink some hot chocolate. Wow
hot chocolate? Pretty sure vodka is a more plausible choice.
@@FzHnn This is new age now so hot Choc makes sense
@@coasteyscoasteys4150 dont think anyone told the slavs that!
I didn’t think I’d ever say this but I’m so glad he is back in Russia!
@@asmresonance6072 its a part of Russian federation
@@asmresonance6072 try saying that to a chechen
When we saw Bolivia. It should be like:,, We are glad that he is back in safe east territories again " :D
Russia is super safe compared to South America
@Christina Reynolds it's a semi automoneous region inside Russia.
I love all the interactions you have with random people, they always leave smiling and better off than when you found them.
When you asked for a bedtime story she probably thought you were asking for the good ole Russian tug tug
I thought bald was killed in Bolivia since he didn’t upload for a while😂
i think the same for Harald
haha i even searched google and youtube for clues, thought he was kidnapped by a bolivian village.
No he only got kicked out.
Same 😭
ha ha same
You know he’s back in Russia because he can’t stop saying Soviet 😂😂
Don't forget Babushka. I've heard him referring to some Bolivian women as Babushkas.
He was seeing Soviet stuff in South America
@@aeiouaeiou100 Bolivia IS a communist nation like Cuba and Venezuela. They at some point DID have Soviet help and goods come in. The dictator there has become more nationalist and has helped the people of Bolivia to some extent but ALOT of Bolivians fled to Argentina and Chile in the 1990s soo.. I donno but I think Bald saw some genuine soviet stuff there yes. Babushkas? lol! That is just his terms for the old women everywhere lol!
1st minute in Me: I’m surprised he didn’t say soviet yet lol Second minute: nvm
"night train" Oh alright...A little bit sketchy... "To Chechnya" Oh no...
“It’s a rich country with poor people” 😩
Because of *DICTATORSHIP* 😂
Sounds like America
no it doesn’t
ky malone Hardly lmao
he said "hungry"
Who else constantly checked for a new Bald video the last few days? Glad to see you made it safely out of South America!
Aaron these are scheduled old videos 😧
Chris Geden not its brand new, look at his ig
Me, every single day. Not only Bald, but also Harald.
just activate the bell and you dont have to check
Bald is back...now waiting for Harald.....😐😐
I love how this is basically a story of, be nice and be friendly and learn a bit of the language ... And you can pretty much go anywhere
There are two types of sleepers. Though who snore and those who don't think they snore.
Man Lost His One Leg But Don't Lose His Spirit I Like Him
I'm afraid the only spirit he has now is the vodka within him. No help from the state, left on your own. He just gets by somehow thanks to vodka.
Yeah the fire spirit in the bottle helps all that will listen!
Damn the cartel are doing a great job uploading and editing balds videos
Lol 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂🤣🤣😂
n1 joSe
5:37 I guess Mr. bald gave that man some money, as you can see his hand going into the jacket pocket. He's done the same in other places as well. Such a kind and loving guy! Stay blessed Baldy! 🥰😊🙏🏼
" I meant to say 'mineral waters'." Instead of what?
My 82 year old grandmother who loves your videos and has seen them all after I shown them to her (she said she has always wanted to visit India so it started with that), emailed me at 8am this morning asking me if I knew what Mr Bald was doing and if he safely made it out of Bolivia because there haven't been any updates on the KZhead channel (I don't know why she thinks I would know more than she does, it's not like I personally know Ben haha but still! My Gran cares for you!). I'm so happy to see you back uploading in one of the most interesting parts of the former Soviet Union, with so many different peoples and breakaway states, Ossetia/Abkhazia and now we can see you in Chechnya! Gran will be so happy to see this video! Ivan the Terrible is called "Ivan Grozny"! While I really do love your content, you make my beloved babushka happy, which just means *even more* to me. Thank you Mr Bald! :)
Oh my god that is so cute!! I wouldn't tell all this to Bald though, you know he likes babbies he might go after chasing her ahahaha
if your granny would like to visit,i would gladly host her and show her around my country as a fellow youtuber,anyday...
@@pritamroy8826 Thank you for your very kind offer! She's a bit too old to be doing all this now, she has said she will be just staying in the UK from now on and she's done all the travelling she will do. Which is why KZheadrs offer such valuable insight for people unable to travel! She was born in 1937, lived through the war and has watched India grow from the very first day of independence and the formation of the Republic. Just know she has always admired your country, and I do too. 🇬🇧❤️🇮🇳
“Selamaualeykum sister” - that had me rolling. 🤣
Living in Russia I heard Chechens dislike it when a non-Chechen man is somehow attracted to Chechen woman, while Chechen man can flirt/have relationship/marry either Chechen woman or woman of any other nationality, so Bald be careful!
@@Hazahra1 I'd still get with one of their women. They like tall white men like me
As a russian i will say : you're speaking russian language like a boss, don't let no grammar nazi tell you otherwise. Russian language is very difficult to learn, every russian respects you cuz they know how much hard work it took to learn.
Guy was like: "Dictator hahahaha"
Glad ur still alive dude. I was starting to get worried
Dajo lol for real I was checking for his new video everyday
Me too
@@angelcaicedo6242 Same here man
Me too
"If you could tell me a fairytail so I can sleep that would be nice" Lol Mr. Bald, you are one of a kind
The Babushka’s love him😘💋♥️
@Sean I disagree: imo, it was an unexpected fall of style, usually mr Bald is a true gentleman.
Yes, also did not know the Waltons tv show was big in England …” Good night John boy”….. Goodnight
I don't think she would fit on his bunk with him.
The Russians are friendly and helpful. I could never imagine a British Rail employee making my bed for me. Or inquiring about my welfare.
"Here's a cage where they keep prisoners. Maybe sex slaves" *nods to others* "Hello" 😂
Mr Bald has got tired of Bolivia and returned back to Russia 😀 I'm sure that in some years he will move here. Россия затягивает! 😁
People in Russia die from AIDS and alcohol, too. Its not different from Bolivia
@@caim3465 People do this all over the world))
@@RussianMermaid you're not wrong..
@City17.76 😁👍
@@caim3465 you realise that now both the UK and Germany drink more alcohol per person than in Russia, Russia drinks about 9 liters per person per year while both of the other 2 countries I mentioned before drink over 10 per person per year.
"Im about to say something, that not many english people have ever said before" "Look at this Soviet building"
The "put' " means the rail path. And the platform can side with two rail paths. So the "put' " describes the side of platform. You don't want to sit in a wrong train from the correct platform :)
Poor Ben, must have broken his heart that the Soviet Museum was closed. He could have "Soviet" a houndred times in there.
Such a relief to see Bald made it back to Russia in one piece
Genuinely my favorite youtuber. Glad you're back in Russia, Bolivia terrified me for you.
I was so sad when that man was talking about how his country was rich but the people are poor. Really need to root out corruption everywhere. It kills people.
This might actually be the best channel on KZhead.
Bald sees anything old: “this is soviet”
well it isnt that far off
Wow! A Soviet comment!
Who thought something bad had happened to him in Bolivia and that’s why he didn’t upload videos.
Ah yeah, some shit went down. No doubt. Maybe he'll open up after he recovers.
I saw the end of his last video where he was in SPAIN airport, so I knew he made it out alive out of Bolivia.. yeah sad place Bolivia. But Bald is back in his favorite places!
I literally googled is bald still alive or something like that
I enjoy each and every of your adventure tremendously and so glad you share them With us. Thanks and Greetings from WW2HistoryHunter
I just love how you're able to socialize with Russian people that easily. Great stuff Лысый ))
From Russia to spain to Bolivia to spain to Russia. All in the matter of 1.5 months. That's impressive
Isn't the plane going directly from Russia to Bolivia since it's closer?
@@ziplin5412 depends where in Russia you're flying from...
@@sisyr5615 he was in east russia when he went to the airport
Why would he travel west bound over the mighty pacific ocean from Bolivia? It is obviously closer and more convenient to travel eastbound with a likely stop in a western european country such as spain, france, germany or the UK. You're geography isn't very good.
@@ziplin5412 "east russia" is still Urals, which is on the western side of Russia if you split it in half. He hasn't been, or at least uploaded, from Russian far east. Though, I'd love to see him in Magadan, Irkutsk, Vladivostok, Khabarovsk, or anywhere in between.
Beautiful Soviet Union... the place where Bald belongs .. look how happy he is
“Diktator” *Wheezes* Kheeeehehekhe
this is an instant classic
Next episode: I got kidnapped by the Caucasus emirate.
YOU'RE ALIVE!!! I literally googled recent murders in Bolivia 🤣🤣
lolz
This is so much better than tv. Honestly the content we receive is amazing. Thank you Bald
-corruption? -DICTATORSHIP
That Eagle statue brings back memories when I visited this town with my mom when I was 8. Good memories.
Which town?
@@sunilgunturu2345 Минеральные Воды (Mineral waters)
You promised us a train ride to Vladivostok, when you reach 1M subs
Yes! I want him to explore Vladivostok
not a good time right now. Soon there will be -30 - 35C
😱👌👌👌
I love how quite and relaxing your vids are, withouth all that annoying music and cuts
Путь - where trains go. Платформа - where people go. Easy peasy lemon squeezy
The man, the myth, the legend is back!
5:16 wow the mist and snow in the dark looks so beautiful I wish I could see it with my own eyes
Thanks for the video. This is my favorite video of the entire series. The night time. The snow. The friendly people. The small, cozy train car. It just seems all very.. magical. Maybe that's a lame way of putting it but it was enjoyable even if only watching.
He was serious about the time when he said he had enough of Bolivia 😂 good to see you back in Russia.. uncle bald
Bald!!! I thought you were gone brother😧 So glad to see you back!🙏🏻
"Would you ride the night train to Chechnya?" Please I'LL TAKE THE MIDNIGHT TRAIN GOING ANYYYYYWHEREEEEE!!!!!
When that guy said "dictatorship" and started laughing, I about died🤣🤣 That's was the most "russian" comment I'd ever heard. Beautiful.
Welcome back to sea level Mr Bald.
Can't tell you how good it is to be back down here
@@baldandbankrupt thought you were up in the mountains
4:25 "Путь" is railway, where the train goes. "Платформа" is platform, where people go.
I see, so 'Путь' translates as 'track' ? It does seem confusing. Usually, either the tracks are numbered, or the platforms. To number both seems redundant..
Put' means way. Many languages, including American English, but not _real_ British English, do not distinguish between railway tracks and regular roads in imprecise speech.
Aleksey B Put' is translated as "track" every platform has 2 tracks in most cases ..."ну тупые"(c) Zadornov
I love watching these! As an American who speaks Russian I love the references,and new words to learn, and you are such a wonderful show host! Keep it up, you've got a lot of great ideas and a joie de vivre that we can all aspire to!!
Seeing my complaining about dictatorship in the first minute 😏
“Платформа” is the surface you stand on to wait for your train. “Путь’” is the one of two railways your train is standing on
Like in Poland.
@@KEITGAMER Nigdy nie słyszałem, żeby ktoś na peron mówił platforma, tym bardziej nie słyszałem takiego słowa jak puć..
@@teczowyjednorozec7829 Bylem w Polsce po raz pierwszy miesiác temu. W Warszawie i w Krakòwie. Też nie słyszałem żeby ktoś mòwił platforma na peron, ale dopiero nie wiem co to jest "szyny".

Just love watching this channel! Greetings from BRAZIL!

The type of tourism you do is the best and the most interesting one. Keep it up I love your content.
as long as we watch form a safe distance of course.
@@TheUnknown70777 of course
In general, I love his way of exploring places (minus the part of ignoring the locals about the possible dangers). Rather than just a tourist I would say he is a traveler and explorer.
I’m so glad to see you back here! Thank you for taking me on your travels to places I would never get to go! 💕❤️🥰
Thank you for showing us this world that I could never witness myself. Your videos are really entertaining and I always look forward to watching them.
Caucas is not only Chechnya and Dagestan, there is many over rebuplics like:Kabardino-balkar, Karachay-Cherkes etc, can you visit those places they are very beautiful.
"Would you like a glass of Baltika 7 with me?" that line made me laugh! Great videos!
The people are really wonderful, humble and friendly I love watching these videos for the people
You had me laughing with the “ludzie chrapie”….😴😴😴😴 the snoring, HILARIOUS!!!🤣😂🤣😂
Bald needs to travel with his Minsk beauty
We will try to do that this year for a bit. Schedules are tough to match up
Glad to see that Mr. Bald is fine. I was half-expecting to see a news article about the death of a British KZheadr in Bolivia. Be careful man ;)
You won't get it in news if he get's killed in bolivia. Coz Nobody will get to know about it. He will just disappear all of a sudden
@@prabhatsingh6488 You're probably right...
He's thinking about his coca leaves en la maleta though...
Love your videos. As someone born in the Soviet Union I’m actually jealous you get to go around travelling these magical places
I heard that squeak when you shelled out for first class 😂 Soviet Bald is back! Asia is fantastic too! Bolivia.... Not so much.
Welcome to Grozny. Glad to see you in our country again. I am your subscriber since you have only 5000 . Need any help in chechenia, let me know.
I just wanted to say, one of my favorite vlogs! Authentic and soothing to watch. Not annoying and pretentious like some other vlogs.
Bald: „Lets get out of bolivian narcos villages.. it’s to dangerous. Also bald: „Lets take the Night Train to chechnya!“
What's wrong with that chechneya is safe
@@awsome7user It is, at least in 2019.
@@awsome7user Well there are some shady places, but in general it's safe.
This man is living his life... feeling a bit jealouse😂 Keep up the Good Content🙏
Anyone else missed Bald? One of the only KZheadrs these days that I watch 🤷🏻♀️ always make time! Lol
Yeah and its nice to see him in Russia and not Bolivia
I love your channel man, the connections you make with people are amazing
