The nihilism of Russian youth is also pretty awesome at spreading STDs.

I think the "in Russia" bit would almost be implied by the insanity of what came before it.

I read that at first as Grope jumping.

In Russia the rope jumps you. I can't believe I just wrote that.

In other news judging from the last pic the police in Russia don't fark around.

Nah you wouldn't want to jump rope when a train was coming, you could fall over or something.

"And I suppose if your friend Dmitri jumped rope off a bridge, you'd do that, too, right?"

ok so gotta ask is this just a bunch of kids with a death wish or are they actually attempting mass suicide?

I thought jumping rope was when the rope spun around and around the jumping person or people. Jumping off a bridge while tied to one end of a rope isn't jumping rope it's just stupid.

Too poor to afford elastic? Just use normal rope and a shorter bridge!

Seriously. When I first found that site I spent the next 7 hours of my life perusing every post on the site. I learned a lot about Russian/Ukrainian culture that way. I have been following the blog ever since.

The comments section leaves something to be desired. Especially the posts involving Russian women. They typically devolve into people (Russian men, by the looks of it) calling all women who even so much as talk to a foreigner a gold-digging whore willing to abandon her family and her life to be an indentured servant to a fat, heartless American tormentor with a small dick and a large wallet.

In retrospect, it's a lot like TFD. But with few fattie discussions.

What happens if the ropes get tangled? Wouldn't they get run over by the train if they couldn't all jump off at once due to the entanglement?

I wonder how much vodka played a part in the initial idea of doing this...

Vodka plays a part in farking breakfast over there. So I'm guessing "a lot".

If they were really badass they'd tie their ropes directly to the track.

 
twidgetfitch 2009-10-11 04:39:29 PM  
Can't wait for one of those unmaintained bridges from the Soviet era to collapse and kill dozens.

Wait that just happens in the US.

Were they drunk?
