- Russia sometimes gets carried away with being Russia and hides entire cities from everyone else. Here's the story.

"Did you know that there are Russian troops in Ukraine right now" aged like fine wine
they've been there since 2013 so
@@thomasboi2255 Yes but it was only now that the media picked it up and a large scale Russian operation was actually underway. They practically, like Connor said, snuck troops into Ukrainian separatist/government territory.

Sadly, the average Westerner didn’t know what Ukraine was until their TV told them they should care about it.
The main thing I learned from this video is that Russians aren’t born, they just spawn in the middle of a field wearing an Adidas tracksuit
J Masters holy shit why is this so funny 😂
That is so racist
All of us eastern europeans are created that way not only the darn Russians !
ROFL 😂
The track suit is earned after spending a week naked in the frozen marsh with only a bottle of vodka.
No. Soviets are born in bunches of 100 by 1 woman and there were a total of 100M woman doing this a little before WWII. That’s how they had more manpower.
"The average person in Norilsk live 10 years less..."
Me: that's bad
"than other Russians"
Me: Oh, that's really bad
Because America fucked all the healthcare after the fall of the USSR
Coconut Crab true
@@jamescrab4110 vodka did
@@jamescrab4110 That make no sense. Prior to the collapse, women would avoid pregnancy because they didn't want to end up in a Soviet hospital.
@Cegesh I've literally read that from multiple sources.
Also in Norilsk there are 40 days without daylight and according to a documentary there are invisible fogs without oxygen that can suffocate you on the street.
You cant get more russian than that.
I know! It's crazy!
That shit's straight out of STALKER
sounds like Half-Life 2 Beta
How do you even get an oxygenless fog? That’s easily the most badass weather phenomenon I’ve heard.
Now we know where the inspiration for Pathologic came from.
4:26 ''the river turned red'' SOVIET ANTHEM PLAYS

Sojuz njerushymyj rjespublik svobodnyx Splotila navjeki jedinaja Rus'...
Stalin: if you don't like you room There's always more space in the gulags.
Lol
Good god these city’s sound dystopian. There is a vice documentary about these artic circle cities
I think I heard about those, but I never ended up watching the,.
The USSR was communist. That makes a dystopian nightmare a lead pipe cinch.
I consider just about any history from the USSR nightmare fuel. My nightmares borrow freely from reading too much about commies.
What's the documentary called?
@@sarahfeel8646 man never answered
@@daneal9443
Never.
4:26 “the nearby river has turned red”
That is the most Soviet thing I have ever heard
"No trees grow natrually"
>Its the Russian arctic, trees dont grow there anyway.
Russia: no one will know *OUR* secrets
CZcams: is that so
Reaper the peeper 😆
This guy is Sam O’nella but historical and uses more color
I would say Sam is Crazier
@@incredibilisman2909 and now he's gone-er....
I'd say he's History House
You can't get demonized if you don't put ads!
This video was like an old work experience. There are entire towns in Russia that have no power, no water, and almost no industry but maintaining, re-purposing, and salvaging failed factories. To see the people get up at dawn and leave at dusk every day in a near silent town is amazingly surreal.
Did you work in Russia?
This channel is literally so entertaining to watch, good work on the videos!
Thank you! It means a lot!
@ History House Productions , Yes hey do one on the Mongol 🇲🇳 conquests
“The KGB wants to know your location.” -KGB

0:15 boy did this age like fine wine
This channel needs more recognition. I'm a new subscriber by the way.
Thank you! I’m glad you like it!
Ruusian secret city is gulag
Pretty close in some ways
“Pthot twist: That thake ith radioactive!”
6:00 wrong borders
*comrade
Welp. You're right! I always make some kind of mistake. XD
History House Productions good vid though
I met a guy from Norilsk a coule years ago. He said it was fun living there, because they didn't have to go to school a large chunk of the year due to extreme weather conditions.
hahaha that's interesting!
I found this channel today and i am already in love! Keep up this awesome work!
Thank you so much!
Man i gotta say. You have one of the best history channels ive seen in a while. Keep it up!
Thanks!
0:12 damn that aged bad
Last week you are starting to get recommended something you deserved all along keep doing the great content :)
Thank you!
I found your channel off of recommended and I’m subscribing cause of the epic content
5:25Subtitles: I live in this little town called Italy :gunshots*
You know too much... *TO THE GULAG !*
Darn it!
You go to gulag
You channel is about to blow up
Good luck and god speed on your finals comrade. Thanks for giving me a brief moment of happiness during mine!
Thank you! Good luck to you!
History House Productions: *makes this video*
The news the next day: "A young youtuber has died in an accident"
“It appears that he shot himself in the back with a shotgun 7 times.”
I just love this channel it's amazing. Thank god I found it.
Thank you so much!

He quit CZcams.
Someone's has been watching sam o nella
Is it you?
Recently found the channel, really fun content keep up the good work!
Thank you!
I legitimately haven’t laughed so hard in a long time. Great work.
First 10 seconds I thought this video was made im 2022
Is it weird that I just had this in my recommended videos after I watched Tenet, a movie in which the macguffin and final battle is located in one of these hidden cities?
Really? I haven't seen the movie.
History House Productions Yeah, I think it’s a fictional closed-city because I can’t find anything about it, but it was called Stalsk-12. It was the hometown of the main antagonist and some nuclear accident has caused it to become abandoned.
7:25 Putin teach how to love motherland
?
Ya gotta like your comment to start somewhere

2 Truths And a Lie, Russia Style.
America: “Alright, Russia, your turn.”
Russia: “Okie~… My name is Russia...”
America: “Yeees...?”
Russia: “It’s very cold where I live.....”
America: “Of course....?”
Russia: “Annnnnd.... The cities on this list exist~...”
America: “...So they don’t exist?”
Russia, with a gun to the head: “Uhhh.... Да?....”
America: “...”
Russia: “...”
America: “...Sure...”
Russia: “Yep......”
America: “...”
Russia: “...”
America: “Mind if I visit you later-“
Russia: “PLEASE DON’T-“
America: “...”
Russia: “...not visit.”
America: “...Kay.”
Russia: “Yup...”
America: “...See ya.”
Russia: *”O k A y~”
America: “......Can’t wait to see those cities~”
Russia: “NO, THEY DON’T EXIST-“

Radioactive lakes aren’t a plot twist in the Soviet Union

Haha! Thank you!
You should have more subscribers... All of your video quality are beyond amazing.... Hope your channel will be monetize soon.
Thank you so much!
Fun fact norilsk is one of the most dystopian looking places on earth
The way he said Chelyabinsk had me seizing up
I was a frequent visitor in Ozyorsk! My grandparents used to live there, but as they retired, they moved away. Sadly, I can't visit the town anymore.
That’s really interesting! What was it like?
Are they visible with google earth?
You are my favorite channel
Thank you! I'm glad you like it! :)
How do you even find out about these topics?
I saw something about Norilsk on Twitter like a year ago. XD
Putin want's to know your location!
Will you ever cover Three-Mile Island?
Neat video
That heart was also pretty neat
YAY MORE OF UR VIDS
:)
I miss your content so much.
yay! its here
Do we respawn once we die because we spawn in Russia, not get b o r n
For some reason I can’t access YTLC music and it makes me really sad because we have a yearly tradition of blasting Puff a Swisher in the guys changing room on closing night after the performance. Please do something papa Cladwell.
Norilsk sounds like some forbidden, cursed land that you only heard about in legends.
Yeah... I living here
your knowledge on russian and polish history deserves a fucking medal of some sort
Haha! I’m not that great. I just read a lot.
@@HistoryHouseProductions well in my book you get the adidas gold 🏅 medal
Kremlin wants to know your location
(69.69.420)
Glad that someone caught that.
the intro is so beautiful these days
How do you spell 6:52
So... Norilsk only gets a break day on a leap year?
*Well cool*
