Russians Survive -35°C Without Power (2001)

[@unvaccinatedAndPureBlood]

I can't imagine surviving even living -35 degrees. That's insane.

[@tamaraj4200]

Pete C our town gets that temperature multiple times a winter, but we have heat and electricity.

[@sladetuner8661]

i did with my family during the deep freeze we had just recently in texas last month without power for 2 1/2 days and water for 4 days

[@rajlowkie6616]

I Immigrated to -40c, every winter in Canada 🇨🇦 just 💛 💚 🧡 it .

[@AlbenianKomrad]

Welcome to yakutia bro. It's always like -65 C° there

[@h35biznez]

What a strong people. Im impressed and sad at the same time.

[@emuriddle9364]

Winter is a different beast, on it's own.

[@maxasaurus3008]

These stories must be told, I’m grateful I have such an easy life compared to many. Thank you for telling these stories.🙌🏻

[@gluehuffing5454]

Here old people die at 0 degrees C. Russians are really strong. 💪

[@arx3516]

-35 without heating? I guess your clothes become your second skin until next summer.

[@whiskeyandkittens6999]

I need to stop complaining about Missouri weather ASAP.

[@jx3821]

And we wonder why cartoons always stereotype Russians as being in a bad mood!

[@ChronicCraftsman]

Imagine working hard for 40 years and then retiring in a frizzing cold apartment with no running water and having to go to toilet outside! What a beautiful place Russia is!!! NOT.

[@mikelee7535]

Putin made sure that this never happens again.

[@5p674]

God those people are tough! I hope things have improved since then!

[@mikelee7535]

It has. This will never happen again with Putin in charge. This was because of post communist mismanagement by yeltsin.

[@Highland_Moo]

Heartbreaking and as usual, it’s the women there who have the guts to stand up to the corrupt, lazy, parasites in charge. That woman who made tea even though she had no running water - even when she had nothing, she still insisted on being a kind, dignified host.

[@mickeyshooter5298]

That’s because the men are off fighting wars, or working coal mines or some other god forsaken jobs to keep the women fed. As usual. Don’t talk shit about men. We run the word you enjoy every day

[@khav11]

-35C damn we have this once every 10 years here, i just googled vladivostok and it's average -10c of low in february atm

[@zelenicaljubljanica5410]

in case you can't do math this was 23 years ago and Vladivostok is now a booming, nice city

[@igor7195]

Совсем нет, это нет правда... Ты был в Владивостоке ???

[@mickeyshooter5298]

No it isn’t.

[@JameBlack]

good old Russia!

[@schwenk1592]

You mean Stalingrad

[@jokkpokk8314]

lovely country

[@helenhoward5346]

I'm shocked some ancient person didn't pop up with the"back in my day, 193x Stalin sent us to the Siberian wilderness with just the clothes on our backs and just dropped us off in a frozen barren expansion... Cannibalism was inevitable, but I managed to live off of the.. the uh the uh... The dead grass yes, that's what I ate, definitely not the freshly deceased corpse of so and so from so and so." Then he (or baba, let's face it, the babas love them some media interviews) was probably also involved in Stalingrad somehow so he'd compare this little outage to Eastern front hell scapes thus make all the other interviewees look whiny and thin skinned lol.

[@exstazius]

It is from 20 years ago

[@forgottenpixel]

Is that really -95F? That doesn't seem right to me and it's 4AM and my math skills barely work when I am fully awake. TIA for anyone who helps me out! ETA: LMAO. I was going to erase this embarrassment but I can't stop laughing at myself thinking I was cool posting -95F was a livable thing. So enjoy my ignorance - maybe you'll get a chuckle out of it. And for others who were taught and live and breathe in the stupid measurement parts of the world it's actually -31F.

[@MaxBorges888]

Tc/5 = (Tf-32)/9 -35/5 = (Tf-32)/9 -7*9 = Tf-32 -63+32=Tf Tf=-31⁰F

[@forgottenpixel]

+MaxBorges Thank you!

[@khav11]

@@forgottenpixel have you even lived at -30f? warm clothes barely work, need so many layers crazy stuff we ocasionally get close to that in mont-tremblant here

[@obviouslytwo4u]

It's not up to the government to keep you warm. I know it's easy for me to say but if you live in such a country you would have learnt by now on how to survive the cold.

[@walkersmith2791]

Where are these womens husbands and sons? No men - no life, dear witches...

[@blueday7537]

Old Russian men die early due to alcohol and the young sons abandon families to get jobs within the city.

[@ДарьяКрячко-щ6с]

@@blueday7537 Alcohol is not the only reason. Most often, our men die from various heart diseases caused by hard work.

[@blueday7537]

@@ДарьяКрячко-щ6с When I lived in Russia all I saw were men dropping like flies from the liquid poison. They become stressed from working like slaves for very little, thus they turn to the bottle, thinking they "deserve" it.

[@j12torts]

A lot of generations of russian men were killed by germans during the war. A lot were sacrificed so that europe is free from nazi ideology. Sadly communism ideology is just as bad. Many were killed by their generals if they surrendered
