Eli❤ I am so proud of you !!! Be blessed lifelong. You made me to be in love with Russia❤
Wow! I had no idea Eli had that in her! 🦸♀️
Eli conquers Elbrus🗻 👏👍
Congratulations. As an Austrian Alpine enthusiast, I know about the effort that is not visible on this video. Great job.
Eli, I said it before, but I will say it again, you truly are one of a kind! AND may the Force be with you, ALWAYS!
Tallest mountain in Iran is called Mt Alburz and tallest mountain in Russia is Elbrus. There is a linguistic link between the two. Love your videos.
OMG!🥺😭😭😭😭💙💙💙💪💪💪
Elbrus mountain is Iranian name, and Iranian civilization .
@@manhastam8647 Sorry. It got its name because EL(ina) B(akunova from) RUS(sia) climbed there. This is certain information :)
@@MR-ub6sq It's not correct.
@@manhastam8647 True. It was a joke! But are you Iranian?
Glad you made it safely. I kept thinking about the recent tragedy on Elbrus and the people who died. Beauty and danger in one special place.
@@ElifromRussia If this is the highest peak of Europe, Russians are Europeans too ❤💪
I moved from California to south of Russia , I live close to this beautiful area.
No way, where do you live?
Well done, Eli! I am super proud of you. you are awesome, very tough, and produce the best vlogs from Russia. Thank you!
I wonder if she has been training. An additional impressive video from Eli. video has actually come so naturally to her. She has actually obtained success extremely quick, I can not be a little jealous of her, though the quality of her videos are much above mine as well as above a lot of youtuber's. I have actually been blogging in Russia for over 4 years but the youtube algorithm has actually not been as kind to me as it has actually been to her. I can see that you are interested about Russia. Can I ask you, to critique my channel and explain what is required and how I can create better videos?
You must be american. You are the only ones to think that You can say thst You are prowd of some one unknown, not Your child or some other family member... but a complete stranger?
Спасибо, что взяла интервью. Мы здесь всей нашей компанией. Ух как вспомню!!! Было круто!
You’re a very talented lady for sure… interesting, attractive, smart, athletic and you speak English very good. (Your English is very easy to listen to… your accent enhances the words making it sound “pleasing” to the ears.)
Very WELL.
Fascinating how the tour guide said it can be random and unpredictable who may be susceptible to succumbing to the altitude... even some of the fitter stronger men fail to reach the summit.
I love the spectacular scenic views.. especially that sunrise amidst blustery conditions near the top!☀️
The best trekking vlog ever ❤️
Thank you Eli for this interesting and informative video about climbing Mt. Elbrus in the European part of Russia. I admire your drive. Greeting, Sven
Hello Eli. I just started subscribing to your CZcams channel and I already learned so much about Russia through your vlogs. Thank you. You are such an amazing person. Your determination to reach the summit of Mt. Elbrus is a manifestation of how strong willed person you are. I hope you continue your vlogs because it has a very positive effects on a lot of people of different nationalities like me. I'm from the Philippines now living in California.
Eli , you are awesome.Have the strength and dynamic will power to reach the summit of Mt.Elbrus (if not the summit still an accomplishment)
Well done! The highest mountain I've climbed is Snowdon in North Wales which is only a fraction of Mt Elbrus, and now I'm too old to go higher. Best wishes to my favourite Russian girl!
How old are you?
I am so impressed with your ability to tell a compelling and immersive story as you experience it.
EXACTLY! Well said, Fred. 😎
A wonderful adventure to the top of the mountain Elbrus , with professional climbers. I really enjoyed the video, very cool. I wish you success.👌🏻🏔🌅🔥🔥💯👏🏻
I was really looking forward to this video since your last summit attempt and you did not disappoint! So proud of you! Beautiful and moving video. Congratulations Eli!
Eli, you are simply amazing. What an adventure! And you had the extra burden of taking your camera so you could share your quest with us. Lastly, it was good that you shared so much practical advice about what it takes to climb such a mountain and precautions to take to be safe.
Whow I can't even walk 5km on a flat and even terrain with my bag of 11kg. You can not only lift a bag of 25kg but also climb a huge mountain😱!! I have much respect for you doing this! You must also be very strong a lot more then I am🥰.
Me too. 😂💪💪💪💪💪💙💙💙
Спасибо за видео) как говорится "я там был кисель и компот с Вами пил :)" привет Андрею
I love where the one guy says
"Think 10 time's, then prepare prepare "
Congratulations on your ascent Guy's 👍🍻
Russia is a breathtakingly beautiful country. from England
Wow Eli ! This was such an amazing adventure for you ! It is the challenge of a lifetime and you and the team performed like climbing professionals !The food was unusual and very interesting.Wonderful photography as usual,really enjoyed this episode ! ))
Nothing beats getting out into nature. An additional remarkable video from Eli. Blogging has come so easily to her. She has actually achieved success very quickly, I can't but not be a little jealous of her, though the quality of her videos are much better than mine as well as above almost all youtuber's. I have actually been blogging regarding Russia for over 4 years and the youtube algorithm has not been as kind to me as it has actually been to her. I can see that you love to learn about Russian life. May I ask of you, to critique my channel and let me know what is not good enough and how I can get better?
Congratulations on making it to the top :)
the weather will push to the limit of breakage but human will is more stronger than weather... Great to see you to reach to the top. Love from Pakistan
Congratulations on your achievement. I loved that you made so many interviews giving us a lot of perspectives. Thank you for sharing your experiences it was inspiring.
I'd love to give it a try but it seems like really hard work! Another outstanding video from Eli. video creation has come so easily to her. She has actually received success so quick, I can't not be a little jealous of her, though the top quality of her videos are much above mine and also better than a lot of youtuber's. I have actually been blogging in Russia for over 4 years and also the youtube algorithm has not been as kind to me as it has actually been to her. I can see that you love to learn about Russia. May I ask you, to critique my channel and say what is not good enough and how I can improve?
That's awesome. Thank you Eli for sharing your experience. It was so sad to see more and more climbers give up and go back. So much relieving to see you've reached the summit. We're going to Mt. Elbrus this August. Well... Pretty soon.
I followed you up to 5621 M on my laptop at home :). Congratulations Eli, i'm very impressed! You are an amazing, tough courageous Lady and mountaineer.
The lovely view pays off! Tks for this most interesting video.
I specially say privet to the Lady with the neff cap! Congratulations to all of you who reached the top! Congratulations to all who made an attempt to conquer Mt. Elbrus but had to give up for good reasons.
As a Polish person, it's immensely fun to understand some Russian words. Aż mi się przypomniał KOMPOT mojej babci. And the views are amazing.
wodka
Loved it when you asked the man if he was the grandfather 🤣
What else to say than Amazing !
These are experiences you will never forget!
Thank you for sharing this adventure with us Eli
this is crazy. hats off to everyone who is brave enough to go on such an adventure. and such a great and cheerful group. I am happy you succeeded at this second attempt.
Congrats eli! Feeling very proud for you
My best congratulations to the charming red haired girl for her beatiful and amazing sports achievement. As poet Goethe said "Wer eine Reise tut, hat etwass zu erzählen" ( = the one who makes a long journey has something to tell) so maybe sometimes in the far and distant future Eli can tell her grandchildren the story when grandma conquired mount Elbrus.....
I'm waiting for Eli's report from the Moon!)))
Congratulations on your achievement. You are officially a badass. 💪😎
Well done you! Excellent vlogs, very informative 👍
Eli, this is amazing! Your strength and stamina are really inspiring me!
Eli you are awesome! Thank you for the amazing view.
What a wonderful place! Great video, as usual. Thank you
Amazing achievement to climb so high in such harsh conditions!! You did it Eli!!!!! Also the stunning view of the sun, clouds, snow and blue sky!! Really enjoyed watching this and ALL your vlogs!!! I’m always searching for the next!! 😃🥰👍🏻🙅♀️🙅♀️
That was an excellent video and I enjoyed watching it.
I have friends from North Yorkshire in England who have climbed Mount Elbrus but they are experienced trekkers & climbers who have climbed in the Himalayas, the Alps and the Andes. I don't know whether they went up the North or the South routes so I will ask them when I next see them (we often going camping together).
I know that she sometimes suffers altitude sickness but sometimes she does not (it seems very random) but her husband mostly feels OK.
I am sure you must feel very proud of your successful climb. Well done!
Wow, many thanks Eli for showing us beautiful landscapes of Elbrus. Thanks to you I realised that this mountain is not as easy as it looks like even on this video. I was thinking some time ago to go there alone but basis on what I saw on your videos, it definitely needs preparation and professional guidance. Love your videos and your passion so much ❤ Keep doing good job showing us the beauty of our planet. Greetings from Poland.
Holy Molly Elina!!.. Oh my.. I used to hike mountains in my country and I love mountain hike.. People sometimes asking "if you can turn back the time what would I do? " At that time I don't know the answer but now I know.. If I can turned back the time I wish I can be young again so I can do all the 7th summit.. I hv no idea how Elbrus looks like until you show me in your video.. Thanks Eli 😍😍
Ca me donne envie de tenter l'ascension. Pas facile mais dans mes cordes. L'altitude est supportable sans oxygene et c'est tellement plus sympa que le grand "Barnum" de l'Everest et plus naturel que le Mont Blanc. Merci à Eli de prendre la suite de RT documentaires, dont je suis privé grâce aux bureaucrates arrogants de Bruxelles
Beautiful landscape! 😃👍❤️
I hope one day I hope I can go to Russia and climb Elbrus, Lenin peak, some volcanos in Kamchatka. So many beautiful mountains. The news has me worried that it won’t be so easy in the future.
Elina, you are an extraordinary woman... and so very, very strong, physically and mentally. Much admiration! Following you from the French speaking province of Québec, Canada. Большое спасибо за видео!
Go Eli! That was amazing. You are so strong!
You are brave and adventurous girl and give so details of your expedition in a language which is not your mothertoungh. You speak so good English.Hats off to you.
Amazing. You should be very proud of yourself, and you should do some more summits.
Hi Eli! I recently discovered about your channel while watching Everest expedition and loved watching your videos. Glad that you made it safely. Thanks for sharing your life and culture with us🙏
What a great video!! Thanks for taking us along.
A nice 'n Cool way to complete the trek to the summit. You are becoming quite natural in talking to the camera Eli.
It really shows when you are passionate about your subject matter.
Take care, God bless you, and I hope none of your data ends up lost-in-space with the robinson family (old tv show).
Did you train for that climb like the guide said or just in great shape for all the hiking and showing us different places, that’s a lot of walking! I’m so glad you reached the top! 🇺🇸❤️
Very cool climb to mount Elburs.. great story, adventure.. and cheers for you Elle! Good job⁉️☮️♥️
Amazing video, you are all heros! Thank you for these images and fun interviews Eli and somehow I don't think this was the greatest adventure of your life. Are you an Aries btw? We seek adventure and challenge. Much love from Dafni in Berlin x
I enjoyed your adventure on Elbrus! Great job!
Wow, it's really great that you not only reached the top but also did so while shooting in between!!!
Elle,I thoroughly enjoyed this episode ,the lengths you have gone to ,to put together a professional, video.
I wish you well.
I've been watching you for a week or so I like the way you do your videos
You are an ambitious yoodubur Eli.👍👍. And lookin good as aways.
Absolutely well done Eli, that was one hell of an achievement
This is amazing. Glad you had the strength and mental fortitude to reach the summit. Thanks for taking us there, I feel like I somehow experienced it myself.
Меня в детстве папа брал в горы с собой. На Тянь-Шань и Памир. Я помню самое тяжёлое это для меня было акклиматизация к высоте. Но мы специально планировали оставаться на одном месте иногда по пару дней, чтобы привыкнуть к высоте.
Thanks for sharing all your trips with the world . Its feels like traveling rushing without being there and knows about it
Well done Eli, altitude takes time, time requires energy to fill it, and propel the body into the realm of gravity. good journey with great humor, importante.................
Good job Eli! You're the only girl that made it!
Elibrussia will be your new name now! 👏💪
Hi Eli. your so strong , conquering mount Elbrus with heavy bags on your back is not an easy task, thanks for sharing your most beautiful vlogs.. bye and God bless you...
Very interesting. Beautiful country. Thanks for your video.
I love these videos adventuring into the wild places of Russia , I live for hiking into the wild back country type places seeing things that not many people get to see it’s what I live for I really relate to these videos, kindred spirits.
I was discussing this today. My parents love to go hiking, when I go for a walk I feel that I should be doing something, I'm just alone, walking in the forest and thinking to myself, what am I doing here? Yet another fantastic video from Eli. Blogging has come so easily to her. She has gotten success extremely quickly, I can't but not be a bit jealous of her, though the top quality of her videos are far above mine and better than most youtuber's. I have been blogging in Russia for over 4 years and the youtube algorithm has actually not been as kind to me as it has been to her. I can see that you are interested about Russia. Can I ask you, to critique my channel and say what is needed and how I can improve?
Great job, Eli! The Northern side of Elbrus is indeed much more severe than the Southern, so you can be double proud of your achievement!
WOW! That looks like sleet. Up until just a few days ago we were still having 90 degree + Fahrenheit weather here. I thought I was gonna suffocate.
The snow rarely melts at that height even when it's really hot at the foot of the mountain.
Congratulations on climbing mount Elbrus and thanks for sharing the story!
Well done...huge effort! Excellent story telling. Thank you for sharing this adventure. X
Great video and congrats on your summit of Mt. Elbrus. As an avid mountaineer, this peak has been on my radar for awhile and I have frequently checked in with friend a n Moscow who kept encouraging me to come and climb it. I fear now I may have waited too long, but I am hopeful someday we will be able to freely travel again. The North side looks like a really amazing adventure....definitely this is the more adventurous way to summit than the South side. Thanks for the great video!
Great job, Eli! Girl power!!💖
Congratularon Eli! You are a very brave woman! Greeting from Argentina!
Pemandangan yang indah terima kasih telah membuat video ini
My architecture friend, Buz Donahoo (r.i.p.), leader of world climbing and hiking tours via Condor Adventures), would so enjoy this video. I remember all the pre-departure get togethers at my place where all the tourers would come and weigh their packs on my beam scale. If your bag weighed too much he'd make you pare it down. Yes, he'd enjoy this video had he not passed away a while back over in San Torrini after a lifetime of expeditions. To see Eli, with no experience in climbing toting 75 pounds up Elbrus speaks to the grit of her spirit. You be safe over there and get back to 'home base' intact charged up for the next trek.
Hi Eli! It was a tiring experience, however, beautiful and unique.
Mount Elbrus is imposing and fascinating like any mountain and I think it is worth climbing or at least visiting.
Your experience is definitely informative for us others who see your videos at least have an idea of what you're going to get if you decide to climb a mountain.
Congratulations Eli
Congratulations on summiting! What a great accomplishment. Sorry to see the older man did not make the summit.
Superb! Thank you for this vid dear Eli!
Congratulations Eli on making it to the top🏆 . Russia has beautiful scenery. I used to hate going on school camping trips. Camping in Australia is very different from Russia. You'll miss the simple luxuries. Be sure to watch out for deadly bushfires, mosquitos, leeches, wasps, vicious bull ants, deadly snakes and spiders. Eli, do you think you can endure the Outback? I DARE you!..🕷. The temperature gets so hot you could literally cook an egg on a rock! 🍳
I don't think I could. You have the experience to deal with it. I'd probably die of thirst. An additional impressive video from Eli. making videos has come so naturally to her. She has actually received success extremely quickly, I can not be a tiny bit envious of her, though the top quality of her videos are much above mine and better than many youtuber's. I have been blogging concerning Russia for over 4 years but the youtube algorithm has actually not been as kind to me as it has been to her. I can see that you like to learn about Russia. May I ask of you, to critique my channel and explain to me what is not good enough and how I can get better?
@@SamsRussianAdventures Unfortunately, stereotypes about Russia exist. Use that stereotype to your advantage. Eli knows that 95% of her target demographic audience are male aged 18+ and single. Most of them have an unhealthy fetish and objectify Russian women. But all Eli see's in those individuals is an algorithm which translates to revenue. I read the comments and 85% of the time its awkward lonely men with a harmless crush. But to be honest, I think of Eli as having transformed herself as more of an Investigative Journalist rather than CZcamsr.
@@diabolicaldebbie I really appreciate your honesty. I think that you are right. I often make videos with girls just because I know that the male western audience wants to see this. The other option is to make videos stereotyping the typical run down Russia that people expect to see and one blogger in particular has gained huge success with this.
@@SamsRussianAdventures I've seen your work, and I don't mean to sound harsh, but you need to work on your camera and editing skills. You need to do more research if you want to be taken seriously as a professional CZcamsr.
@@diabolicaldebbie thanks for your feedback. Do you mean that I should add music and effects? The only thing that really annoys me is my sound quality when standing behind the camera. I really like the filming style of Bald and Bankrupt. I don’t like his content but my filming style is similar to his his.
Mt Elbrus can easily be considered the Mt Olympus of Russia. Glad you made to the top summit safe and sound 👍
😳 Brave lady!!! Congratulations to you and all your climbing team 🍻
Impressive effort, Eli. An average CZcamsr wouldn't endure altitude sickness or navigate through crevasses to create content. I truly enjoyed the video, and loved the scenery. Looking forward to seeing your next adventure.
I really enjoyed this video as a trip up a mountain, but also as a view into Russian life. Your English was fine even when you were under the stress of climbing.(I was a climber also and our guide would say "Stop talking and just concentrate on putting one foot in front of the other, and breathing in rhythm with your steps!" He didn't have to tell us twice.) Thanks for this !
Nice video Elina
You are looking pretty too
Keep your content like this .
I have subscribed today ❤️❤️
Congratulations that you have made it
Oh my gosh this city is so interesting. I wish there I could there now to make my 𝗪𝗮𝗹𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗩𝗟𝗼𝗴𝘀
The type of "light" these people show amongst themselves. And have on their faces with you there... Just so adorable and happy.
Emma from London
Which city do you mean. This video was about ascending mount Elbrus.
That was amazing Eli, well done!
Nothing is better than getting out into the countryside and breathing that air. An additional amazing video from Eli. vlogging has come so naturally to her. She has actually achieved success so quick, I can not but not be a tiny bit jealous of her, though the top quality of her videos are much better than mine and above many youtuber's. I have actually been blogging in Russia for over 4 years and the youtube algorithm has actually not been as kind to me as it has actually been to her. I can see that you like to learn about Russian life. May I ask you, to critique my channel and explain what is wrong and how I can make my videos better?
Hi Eli! Glad you visited Kabardino-Balkaria, Elbrus. Hope you make a video about our places. Especially Верхняя Балкария.
Thank you for the vicarious experience of this climb. You endure the cold rain & wind; while I sit back with me feet up drinking a hot cup of coffee. But the call of the wild is enticing. I envy your experience!
I love going to mountains and this path seems like a dream hike. Also, quite nice group of hikers, they got those alpine rocks in them souls.
Thanks for your sharing such incredible video, you're hard worker ❤
