Inside Perm 36: The Last Gulag

🇷🇺 Under Stalin the G.U.LAG ( Main Administration of Camps ) system spread out across what was the former Soviet Union, swallowing up citizens and foreigners from all corners of the empire. Ukrainians, Estonians, Kyrgyz etc. were taken from their homes and sent north in box cars to the camps to work away their stretches. Millions passed through the camps and many never returned home. Those camps have long been dismantled or converted into regular factories and work places and you'd be hard pressed to know that you were visiting a former camp. However Perm 36 logging camp has been preserved and so I travelled to the very edge of Europe to a village called Kutchino to visit the last Gulag and to see how the prisoners lived.

The same things are in action yet no one cries about "modern «goolag»". Because there's no paid money for those cries. If you fear that, then you are a moron. I just state that.

He doesn't just go to the most famous tourists sites (he does some of that and I am glad for it too). But this video perfectly shows how he often ends up in the most random, generic towns meeting the most ordinary people. This is real travel. Going to the Kremlin honestly tells me little about life in russia. Going to a small town and staying in an average hotel and hanging out with local people and showing food available- those things honestly DO help me understand what life is like there. Thank you.

  • As someone who is from Russian descent and can speak/read the language, I really appreciate this documentary/vlog. It truly shows how the Russian people are friendly, accommodating, and welcoming. They always want to show the outside world what's really going on and want to help you along your journey. Besides all of the politics and hardships they face, they truly want the best for themselves and everyone around them. I only really visited Russia while I was 5, but my mother was from that background. Always hard working, diligent, intelligent, and fun! Russians really know how to take advantage of their surroundings, make fun of it and have a great time. You really enlightened me on my understanding of Russia as a descendant of these lands, and I truly appreciate it.

The pile of electrical switches the political prisoners were made to manufacture and the cramped 4 person cells stick in my mind too.

  • This is the kind of travel vlogs I'm looking for! Places filled with history, unfamiliarity, places that spark curiosity, places I will probably never be able to visit.

  • Just mesmeric stuff. Every video is a joy. I am a Brit living in Slovakia, so I get parts of the language, the culture and the history of central and eastern Europe. However, Bald's videos are a complete education every single time. I don't say this lightly, but you are a treasure, a gift. Thanks for sharing what you do, it makes many people happy in so many different ways. Bless Up.

Every time I click to watch a video that you post Mr.Bald, I'm always greeted with a feeling of excitement ahead of a fun and spontaneous journey! The amazing people you show along your journeys as well is just so heart warming

  • When I traveled through Alexandria, Romania ,Gomel, Belarus and other cities in the region ........some of my fondest memories were purchasing a meal, candy or drinks for the precious children I met along the way. Their parents certainly can't afford to buy them a pizza or burger as often as we do in America, so it's truly a special treat for the kids. Thank you sir Benjamin for the kindness you show all the children you meet. They will remember you and so will God. :) PS: I met my wife in Bulgaria on one of my trips and I'm truly the most fortunate fella in America to have this special lady of 21 years. :) Wishing you safe travels! We love your vids!!
