It's awesome to see this small parcel of humanity, a town not forgotten to the times, prospering, well preserved, with people itching with stories to share, and places with a legacy to be appreciated. You have earned yourself an admirer, what an absolutely beautiful video!

  • It's beautiful, but at the same time everything feels so gloomy and sorrowful. The abandoned houses, the documents and pictures of people who are probably long dead by now, the books, the toys, those old movies, everything speaks about a past that is no more, smells like the dust of time, fills the air with a deep melancholy. It's like entering the house of an old granma who has passed away and seeing that everything has been left untouched, with the grammophone still playing the music she used to love when she was young.

    @Arsenico971@Arsenico971 Жыл бұрын
    • why would the people in question be "long dead by now"? The mine closed in 1998. The people in question should be in their 60-s to 80-s depending on their ages when they came there. They are probably fairly healthy too since the arctic has no stresses or western life, no crazy viruses and diseases, no crazy financial problems of the west. Life is just... simpler. Also don't forget all the children that grew up there - they are probably still fairly young. Your comparison to grandma that passed away is both true and false. That place is not about death of a person. It's about the death of a great superpower. Perhaps the greatest in the world. It can certainly bring up feelings of sorrow, in those that actually give a damn about what happened to the USSR, but that's different from a relative that passed away. Or is it?

  • BTW, about the bears, the real problem is that their numbers have risen dramatically since the 50s because we've protected them. I read somewhere that there are about ten times more bears up there now than back then. That makes it competitive and some are driven south. There is a preserve on Svalbard where humans are not allowed to go called Nordaustlandet, and it is full of walrus and other things the bears like to eat. That's why they come to Svalbard. But again, some bears get squeezed out of the walrus buffet and are forced to hunt tourists. The bear pop is balancing itself, which takes some time. But we caused this problem, as always. We caused the last one too. Firstly by shooting all of them because they are dangerous, and then by protecting them again. This is why we shouldn't meddle more than necessary. We meddled and then to solve that we meddled some more, and now there are too many bears again and starvation. Unless we want to start feeding them,. this is how nature is. Become as numerous as poss, then starvation, death and misery. Rinse and repeat. Every wild animal on the planet faces this problem.

My grandfather and his work Partners would go and find polar bear babies. They would distract The Vicious man-eating mother and whisk the baby polar bear away to safety. They would sell them to the circus or to zoos where they were well taken care of
