It fascinating how Russia still tries to conquer civilised countries while being such a shithole.

A Polish youtuber just travels across Russia. This is Vitimskiy Most. It fell into disrepair, locals fixed it with old railway sleepers. (1)

This is on a major east-west route. It's not some local road to some village the god and Putin forgot. This is how you drive from Krasnoyarsk to Irkuck, unless you want to go all the way around the Lake Baikal. (2)

The Polish youtuber, who used to travel in Russia a lot, decided to do it one more time to see how it has changed. He travels on that route with the lorry drivers, he crosses this bridge with a group of drivers delivering brand new chinese pick ups to a customer.

Before that he travelled with a truck driver who hauled a tanker trailer. You can see it in close up here: https://youtu.be/lRjRgkMUUes?si=3q1Gn2Yf7SKQD8Lc&t=1189 (4)

But, back to the bridge. This is a Russian independent media reprotage about it from some time ago. Scroll through it, if only to see trucks going over:

But this is not all fun yet.

As the Polish youtuber continue his journey with the drivers who regularly travel that route, they show another bridge to him. "It fell apart 15 years ago" - they say.

Now big trucks have to ford the river. For the smaller vehicle, a ferry service is available: (7)
