One couple of lovebirds had a very “romantic” date in St. Petersburg.
But after they had some party with alcohol, the man understood that his date was in one of those states that if he brought her home she would just fall asleep and no “romantic” ending would ever happen. So, the man decided to get sober his lady. As they were near the river Neva, he just gave her a summer bathe to bring her into her feelings ;))

A Russian movie involved a scene when a man has to pilot a jet fighter with the canopy open.
The pilot not only performed the stunt but he broke the sound barrier while doing it.
Quite a feature!
Look at those amazing pics after the jump.

This time it is a Mercedes. This is the thing of Russians, they like to take great cars and modify them.
I’m not an expert, but I think the Mercedes looks perfectly fine without these modifications. But hey, to each their own tastes.

All these photos were taken in the small Russian town of Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk with a population of 180 thousand people.
I would say it’s kind of a Russian ghetto. And this is a country that has huge reserves of oil and gas?

The parade of brides in Kursk, Russia (36 pics)

Posted in PICTURES       8 Jul 2009       17197
Kursk offered an interesting event, something that you don’t see everyday – a bride parade! And not only few brides, but 512 to be precise.
It happened last weekend on the Red Square of Kursk at noon. Rain showed itself but it did not spoil the fun.
You’re maybe asking yourself how they could marry 512 women the same weekend… well, in fact, they were not real brides. Any women wearing a wedding dress could participate in the event, no matter their age or marital status.
So let’s see this huge gathering of Russian brides inside the post.

This time, young people didn’t just bath, they took shampoos, bath foams, shower gels and had a great time dance3

Sergey Zverev, 46, is a Russian hairdresser, stylist, singer…etc quite famous in Russia but young people over there don’t really like him and often make fun of him. That’s why we can find lots of photoshopped pictures of him on the Internet. Look what Russian photoshoppers have made after the jump.

The dacha is is a Russian word for seasonal or year-round second homes.
This dacha can be almost compared to a palace...
I'm really impressed and this is only a “SECOND home”! 36
I can imagine what the “first home” should be ...
There are rumors saying that it belongs to the chairman of Gazprom Alexey Miller.

That’s what can happen if you leave your car in front of your house in Russia.
You won’t recognize your car and you will find some of its body parts somewhere on a local car market. It seems, that your car can be “stripped” like this just in few minutes. So, if you’re planning to go to Russia by your car, think twice ;))

It’s not a secret that Russians like shiny, bling bling things, if they can afford it, and most of all, they like to show it off.
Here’s you are seeing a Porsche 911 covered with almost 40 pounds of pure gold. But…it is golden leaves that were used instead which is less expensive. Anyways, the result is impressive.

For the last 20 years Russia tries to show its progress as a country. And the Eurovision event was a great opportunity to do so. But the gay pride coincided with the final day of Eurovision. Russian authorities forbid gay activists to hold a demonstration and said that the police will “act strictly in adherence with the law." How exactly did the police act you can see after the jump.
