*you'll* never work again? I particularly liked the one of Tigre driving to work.
Uh, trigger warning for a darwin award on the "fishing" one. Replies are saying that it's from filming for an action movie and there was a fatality.
I think the bald guy with the mouldy stuffed penguin on the dating site wins, though he's run close by the traffic cone duel and the Yorkshire terrier in police uniform.
I'm starting to understand Russian demographic trends.
Chainsaw skating must be the best thing ever, until it isn't.
The entirely unnecessary cone duel is pretty great. Couldn't help but think "Duck season! Wabbit season!"
We know. We've read your email.
I'm not really sure what 1 last refers to but I'm hoping it's the guy with the over-chromed 911.
This is the best. Russia so crazy.
I think it was the giant armored truck with 'Mad Max' stenciled on the side.
KEEP MOVING, BUSKER.
9 It was the guy drifting a Mustang round a queue of slow-moving cars but from the comments a fake
I assumed 1 was referencing the one a ways down with a literal tiger running down the road.
It becomes apparent that Halfordismo has first emerged, contrary to theory, not in the mature economies of the decadent bourgeois west but in the neo-feudal wilds of Russia.
Interesting argument, but you fail to grasp the first through third tenets of Halfordismo: I am in charge.
OK. I think I've found the Eschaton, the last swimming video we will ever need.
Some of these poor foreigners have never even SEEN the General Lee.
Just to prove your point I have no idea what you're talking about
While the writings of the Great Leader are never to be discounted, the arid tenets of theory must give way before the hard virile facts of Russia: the fact of bears loping beside dirt-bikes; of water-skiing behind SUVs; of the Leader's own spirit animal bounding along the highway. As the ekranoplan roars upon the bright silver horizon of the Caspian, so to does the fanfare of Tigrismo rise from the wide-spreading forests of the taiga.
21: The General Lee is a Dodge Charger you philistine.

I was skeptical of the link in the OP, because I'm not a fan of twitter. But I was wrong, it's pretty amazing.
I wonder how much of this is intrinsically Russian and how much is just the result of Russia having a stronger sousveillance culture due to rampant fraud. If Americans had their camera phones on all the time, across the entire population surely you'd have enough material for a twitter feed at least as ridiculous.
No. No, I don't think America could provide an equally ridiculous twitter feed.
Do Russians keep dashboard cams because of a stronger surveillance culture due to rampant fraud or because their roads are CRAZY? At least some of those dashboard cams are because of the latter, right?
No. No, I don't think America could provide an equally ridiculous twitter feed.
It's a big county; I'm fairly sure that America could provide equal absurdity (but it would be different -- that twitter does give a sense of a certain distinct culture).
In Soviet Russia, work will never you again.
Hrm. Poking around they have a USA-focused account, but it's a lot sappier and borderline patriotic, with only occasional crazy redneck videos. Meh.
17: You're not Halford. He quit Unfogged forever.
Ogged is right. I have to stop watching this, but I can't. Do you think if I went to the mechanics they'd let me do the thing with the wheel?
I'm surprised at how many of those videos are just moose running across the road. That happens in the US too, guys. (And, no, not just in Alaska.)
Wait, why did that guy's chest catch on fire? WHAT'S GOING ON HERE?
No. No, I don't think America could provide an equally ridiculous twitter feed.
Florida Man could probably do it on his own, if you didn't insist on as much video (because fewer dash cams).
I think the one where the girl plays kicks the boy in the butt, and the boy responds by hurling a ball as hard as he could directly at her head also explains Russian demographic trends.
I'm surprised at how many of those videos are just moose running across the road.
Or bears.
I didn't see a moose running across a bear.
I was surprised to see any wildlife surviving near urban areas. But I guess it's rebounding as the Russians die off.
Does Russia have suburbs now? Because that's made for a lot of wildlife near urban areas here.
They've had dachas since forever. I just figured Soviet environmental policy would have killed everything outside northern Siberia.
The wildlife all retreats to Chernobyl to breed.
In Soviet Russia, industrial disaster exterminates you.
