🇷🇺 Greetings from the republic of Chuvashia in deepest Russia where I went on a hunt for the little known European language of Chuvash. And as usual on the way I met some real characters. Get ready to meet Yuri Alexandrovich, Chuvashia's most dapper gentlemen.
"I've got a bit of a virus" would sound very differently now
Especially since later on in the video he says he has a sore throat, headache and fever
I was thinking the same..lol
No, normal flu is caused by influenzaviruses.
I thought that i was missheard that word until i turn on the subtitles and WOW! I got suprise by that! That word hits different now
@@CryptoRoast_0 Precovid, its crazy to think that many of us did this all the time! What a different world
And then the last of the Chuvash speakers was wiped out by a mysterious virus.
Heh heh
HahahHa
:))))))
HAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHA
Joke to jokes but , but Russians forced chuvash people to renounce ther language, traditions and other national stuff.
This man is living a real life rpg, just strolls into a village, talks to a villager, just walks into a school like that's a normal thing, asks some very random questions to a teacher there. Wild and wonderful.
No
@UCywJn0bBkwIuOjj3-VZaufg thanks for the constructive criticism
It reminded me of Morrowind when one would just casually walk to a local chancellor just to ask about the latest gossip.
@@AugustSchroif haha exactly dude, or wondering into random buildings in the elder scrolls series. Obviously he had to find the local guild master to continue the quest line.
he does a lot of vodka fetch quests too
Bald was patient zero of covid 19
Maybe vodka is the best National cure.
@@joycehaines34 it cures the life right out,.vodka does. Makes one good and dead. Ready for the magots-dead
@@mkgg9637 Well, vodka isn't the answer in most cases... but it does make you forget the question.
No matter where you go you always manage to meet the village drunk.
Brilliant!
Isnt that because most of the Russians are drunk?
TheDado512 yeah I was gonna say... think there might be more than one village drunk 😆
Well that shouldnt be too surprising considering the size of these villages :D They are so small and drunks often hang out near the villages only shop which usually is in the center.
in Soviet Russia the alcohol drinks you
Its not even hard to find the village drunks in small towns. Usually hang around in centre in front of shops or at marketplace in middle of day.
Please go back to the village with his printed picture.
Yes! :)
yes!!! please
Yes please
Was gonna comment the same! Or please send it by DHL
I would love to see his reaction!
"I'm here with sore throat and fever, looking for the last Chuvash speaker"
LOL basically.
He'll survive
Made me laugh out loud
Lol
in 2020 😁😁🤣
If that's how this Chuvashian dude reacted to a selfie, imagine how he'd react to seeing this video... And the fact that over 1.25 million people clicked just to watch this video, specifically about him... It would blow his Goddamn mind
Heck yeah it would

Man those other channels that pretend to be travel channels are such nonsense compared to this. This is AWESOME.
YT has shown us how those mainstream tv reporters are garbage.
Truth.
lol yeah most of them are either heavy mainstream turistic ones or like super oh I live: I slept in this hotel; I ate this local food; I am spending this much; and this is going according to plan. Bald is different he is just like ; oh hey look this village sounds interesting; let's explore : D I love that!!
Mr Bald is better. More sense of humor. Harald is serious.
It is
That woman winding up the Taxi driver at 3:40 is priceless 😂😂😂
😆👍
strong soviet posture, not like weak western posture
love how she kept her smile as the guy was losing it lol
what a troll, she has it better than guys, or she's coping by lying to herself and others
@@memespeech she's trolling. His anger is funny.
Ah, 2019. Back when you would jump on a crammed minibus when you've got a fever and probable viral infection. Nice.
Classic pre-corona banter
This could be concerning; but it seems to me he is in the very late stages of a virus. Otherwise he would not be in the mood to film.
@@loganthemachine7841 more than likely still contagious.
Right?!
Brandon a virus with over a 99% survival rate.
Forgive me, I can't stop laughing at that man's reaction to the large woman.
He's cool
That's how minor street 'nice' alcoholics react in Russia, in the UK, Ireland it's different- junkies fight like cats with they 'loves' hahahahahaha
blackkey1976 u gay or some shit
@blackkey1976 he's still such a funny character and that reminds me so much of my Russian relatives and that makes it 1000x more cool
OH MY GOD THAT WAS FUNNY!
That guy that sang to you, is Bruno Mars, but if he was stuck in a soviet village his whole life.
Exactly right. You can see it in his vfingers
Except that he's 1 million times more talented than the Michael Jackson-ripping off Bruno Mars.
Where he would've catched a grenade by now
@@Kriegsbeil5577 maybe bruno was cool at the start who knows what he had to give to be wealthy. But this guys that bald meets are gorgeoudly soulfull
Brunislav Marsovsky
Who wanna see YURI finally get his pic print...??? Please bald, come again and give him the pic, seems he never had nice pic of himself before... 🥺🥺🥺
Its funny how he'll pretend to be a "correspondent", but in reality he probably has more world experience than any journalist.
Pretend?
Well, that’s probably true🤷♀️
more like soviet experience
He corresponds with us
Any? Unlikely.
But they call him 'correspondent', so he owns it and uses it. 👍
The poor man probably has no one. He seemed pretty lonely and shows signs of dementia. Glad you gave him your time.
He's drunk

Regular village alcoholic
Man, I live in Moscow and your vids give me more insight into my country than any Russian blogger or TV
That's great!
same here
I would like to visit the provinces but I afraid those peasants will force me to drink vodka and fucking around. Naver been in a village since early childhood.
Russian here. True dat! Mr Bald is a true gem!
Same here man. When he was in India, he showed the real beautiful India. Not what our media shows us and definitely not the poor side which the west media shows to the world.
7:55 Yuri Aleksandrowich is trying to sing "За полчаса до весны" (Half an hour before spring) by Belorussian band Песняры (Pesnyary), but in definitely wrong tune and melody. You are welcome to find this masterpiece on CZcams.)
Thanks for the tip!
i'll do, thanks!
8:44, that guy has a Russian prison tattoo inbetween this thumb and index finger?
@@michaellubieniecki8074 I believe - no, because prison tattoos are usually made on fingers like rings. They are called "наколка" (nakólka). Tattoos like this were popular in the army. He might serve as a conscript in USSR air force and get a simple picture of aircraft tattooed on that very place of a hand.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The part you didn’t understand was him saying “I will never have this picture”
That was so sad. :(
You really got a thing about village drunks ? A drunk magnet 🧲.
He drinks alot too lol
totally :D But on the other side it's not so hard to find drunk people in slavic countries, especially Russia.
Sam Advocan Who does?
in east europe its the same, here in romania aswel
If you live in a village ...what else is there to do ?

Every town has its own town-drunkard to welcome Bald & Bankrupt.
Kevin P American idiot. Russia better. you are dying of guns
@@NoName-hy8gh Bruh.. I don't think he meant to offend anyone, calm down.

I'm Irish, my whole town are drunkards. Most the country loves substances that can fuck you up. It's tradition, no I mean addiction 😁 rave to the grave
First scene: Benjamin trying to get his phone back
Next: Dude still sitting with his phone
Greetings from Russia. Make peace, not war. Thanx 4 your videos.
Nice meeting in the field . Down to earth man showing off his truck . These are the moments . Thanks Bald .
Its stuff like this I love seeing. The people are so friendly and willing to talk and show you things and share. I am really liking all the videos.
@@Matthewjohnwilson that's because Bald comes with an open heart and a smile, plus his Russian is close to perfect. If he would approach them villagers with a mean face like "let me take a ride quick" he'd get beat up)). Those farmers are no joke, they know there's no cops nearby to defend them.
MI6 agent pretending to be a news correspondent. (2019 colorized)
was actually looking for this type of comment, cheers.
New James Bond movie 😂
The lady from 2:15 to 2:40 thought he was a Putin spy testing her patriotism, so she gave him the standard “We are all Russian here”.
Yes, sadly their standards have fallen.
T B hahaha exactly what I was thinkin
"Im a british correspondent" sounded like a true mi6 spy
"I had to give everything for the motherland and the army but what did the motherland ever give me? It did not even give me work. . "
3:42
That is a universal feeling
Relatable for ALL russians.
phxbia probably served in the Soviet Red Army, it’s relatable for everyone who was in the USSR.
He was so triggered lol
Russia give him apartment fo free. Midicine and education fo free. But for him it'a noting.
For many of these village people, the bald and bankrupt visit may be the highlight of the year, a story they'll tell forever about an English correspondent
Highlight of the decade
That's how legends are born...
They drink a few more shots of vodka and forget all about it
At least the people at the bus stations will.
there will be a prophecy that one day a bald man from the Island of Britain will return to the village

I think he simulated English)) A small kid behaviour..
9:27 Immediately think of the Terminator soundtrack
Lol yeah
Lol how did you notice that 😂😂 love it
yes
That angry cab driver is my spirit animal.
Yep, and there's always some Karen around trying to ruin a guy's quality rant.
Plot twist, that guy is also British and just pretending to be a local drunk guy.
he might be, judging from his speech.
He was just so drunk that he forgot to speak English so he automatically switched to Russian.
It's not Harolds channel lol that channels fake as fuck.
@@zingzzingz3571 Whose channel is fake AF?
@@Olvir_Richardsson HaraldBaldr. He made a video with Bald specifically for views and to make American look bad, Harold had a fake black eye(now know was clearly fake), and 2 days ago he was in Italy with the guy they were fighting with in Alabama. So they both aren't genuine. But i like there videos and to be honest they're both ok guys. But alot got offended by it especially the American viewers lol
The face that he made at that plump lady walking by had my absolutely DYING of laughter!! Your videos are the best man!
🤣🤣🤣
He wouldn't do it to her face so she could see him.
I kept watching it at least 20 times over.
Somehow it seems more offensive to call someone "plump" than fat
LOL I burst out laughing as well.
I didn't realize Russia looks almost exactly like Indiana and Ohio in the spring...
truuuuuuu when he was in a farm field in Transnistria it looked just like the midwest
When it's hot dry and sunny in Rus/Ukr/Belarus, sometimes the landscape seems like random fields in Brazilian central region too.
Bottomline : if one looks carefully, there is common ground everywhere !
After watching many of Bald's videos I can't help but the think how some of those remote soviet villages look nicer and more welcoming than some of the meth towns here in rural Iowa.
Funniest thing in this video that the first strange guy was speaking chuvash and bald didn't noticed it
Lol thats what i was thinking holy shit n its true bald has immense luck in his side lmao
"I've got a bit of a virus" (sore throat fever, headache, sweating) proceeds to get on a crowded bus full of people. Oh Bald, always willing to spread the love 😂
Spreading the virus too 😂
@@sandeepallu5858 that was the joke
He has no shame anymore and he's really milking that "English correspondent" thing 😂
yeah hes loving that now, but seems to work so its maybe why.
No one would know who vloger is
Little bit easier than explaining his CZcams channel every time
I'm surprised that doesn't make people more guarded than they would be when he just says he's a traveler.
L N it’s normal in Russia. Journalist are looked highly of.
I get irritated when my phone doesn't load the camera fast enough, and this man was brought to tears over a picture of himself. It really goes to show how much I (we) take living in a privileged world for granted. Videos like these really make me see the beauty in this world. As Mark Knopfler says in the Dire Straits song Brothers in Arms, we have just one world, but we live in different ones.
Yeah brothers in arms,my...
Made my day That guy being so happy to see a picture of himself and saying he looks so handsome that made me happy
Bald: Jurij, you are a very jolly guy!
Jurij: - BEEŰŰŰ BEHAAAAÜÜÜÜ
LMAO
LOOOOL...yes he is
ŰwŰ
And look at this gentleman. Confidence exuded out each and everyone of his pores and he was a well-dresser to boot. He cried because he has suffered so much that he saw himself ugly and this time was his chance to prove himself wrong. You bald traveller are an ok man
She said in Russian I didn't know that I'm awesome
an ok man
More than okay man
Boy, at the end there, yuri got real emotional. You must have brought him some memories of his past.
8:16, my math teacher trying to explain something to me.
Everyone in the bus,the van and the taxi driver wake up tomorrow wondering why all of a sudden they have the flu.yuri alexandrevich....he's waking up feeling fresh.
His blood is alcohol, Yuri is immune to the flu.
That guy yelling in his car about how unfair life is - I love him! :D he made me laugh out loud. You gotta love the honesty and directness of Russians and Eastern Europeans, they don't put up the same facade as in the west.
No we are just whiners. There is nothing good about it
@@wecandoit740
Western Europeans are just as whining. But they will put on a mask with fake smiles and phony optimism. I was born and raised in Northern Europe and I now live in the Baltics, and I much appreciate someone complaining and being honest that telling me everything is OK with a fake smile.
Maybe it's just a personal preference, but I really noticed the difference when moving here.
@@Atavist89 it is a bad habit to open up to everyone you meet in the street let alone your friends
@@wecandoit740
Yeah, there's definitely pluses and minuses to everything
Oh yeah, polish people are the same. We love to complain but I guess we have the reasons 🤷🏼♀️
I love that the guy wanted the dog in the picture thats great
That was kind of sad because he is probably so lonely.
This was the sweetest thing ever, the fact he wanted his dog in it too aaaaaaa
4:13 „Are you the foreign journalist who is making a film about us here?“
„Yeah... journalist, exactly!“
If a journalist is a media worker who conveys information about some topics to the general public, then Bald is definitely a journalist. Even if he has no official position in some media company
Well, most correspondents from England are just covering Brexit, so this guy is doing all the heavy lifting by showing us the real world.
Well, he really is an independent journalist.
@@Zveruidfly Exactly! There are a lot of independent journalists who are not affiliated with any mainstream media outlet. Many alternative media sites or channels started as a one-man show....
A journalist is anyone who (as a profession or not) keeps and publishes a journal of real events. What keeps Bald from being considered a journalist is only his focus on random encounters rather than current events with wider significance.
Mr. Bald presents : Village drunks from around the world 😂😂😂
Including our drunken Irish? 🇮🇪 ☘️
Plot twist: they all same
"We are all Russian here" hits your ear differently these days
The friendly interaction you have with people of all kinds is what makes this channel so great and unique
It would have been funny if the old guy would have asked you for your phone thinking its a photo with a frame.
i was kind of expecting him to want to keep the phone haha
Ha3 nice point😂😂😂😂
Would've been one helluva scam lol
At one point he held tight to the phone and bald was trying to take it back.😂
Well, in the beginning he was wondering and even asked how is he going to get actual (paper) photo out of it. He really wanted the picture to frame it. Most likely first time he saw a digital photo.
Your content is exotic even for Russian citizens who live in the cities, like me :)
Yeah, the more remote a place in Russia, the better. Some of these places might as well be Narnia as far as those in the West are concerned.

Really love how u seek these kind of experiences. keep it up!
I love how that man just has your sunglasses on and is just singing 😂❤️
Surely I'm not the only one thinking he should get a framed photo of that man? That look when the man seen his own photo was one of a proud man if he appreciates a photo I'm sure he would cry of happiness if he saw it in a nice frame....Please go back I know it's probably crossed your mind! Lol
He should have asked for his address, and eventually send the framed photo.
He didn't expect himself to be that handsome, I wish I had the confidence to say that
Loved this family on the field..
i was very happy to see how you brought joy to Yuri just for taking his picture. Good on you!

Bald is a animal lover, if you havnt seen it, then go back to his india videos and see him save street-puppies so they wouldnt get any more abuse from the people throwing stones at them and so they wouldnt get run over by the traffic.

Who is considering learning russian after watching bald and bankrupt videos?
The drunk guy in the video?
I learned basic phrases and how to read Cyrillic from them, I have heard that the grammar is weird but I'm used to that after learning german
@@MatthewsGauss bald and bankrupt has also a video giving advice on not studying the grammar. Its called :"Do Not Study Russian Grammar!"
as a part time russian speaker i would advise to start from swearing lexics! For example: good - "peezdato", bad - "khooyovo". To be honest you could express everything just with cursing and everyone will understand you! :)))))))))))
i'm considering it since several years farming on gta 5 with some russians :) Still didn't do it....silly me :I
