Russians Have Lost It Over Heat Wave…
- Russia in Green
This is the kind of information that you can not make up…
Over 1,200 people have drowned across Russia in June this year (2010), including 233 between July 5 and 12. (Yes in just 7 days)
“Russia’s Emergencies Ministry is very worried by the current situation. In the last day alone, 49 people drowned, including two children,” Quoted -Vadim Seryogin, a department head at the ministry, as saying.
“The majority of those drowned were drunk. The children died because adults simply did not look after them,” he added.
This kind of stuff just can not be made up. I swear that telling the truth about Russia is worse than trying to make a lie up about Russia. The truth is that Russians seems to have a knack for giving the news of the world a reason to point fingers at them…
Everyday in Russia is a new experience that never ends. You travel the road ways in Russia and you see thousands upon thousands of memorial markers on the side of the roads as you travel. These are from the deaths by car accidents that happen at an incredible pace in Russia.
Now we get to line the beaches with the memorials because someone gets drunk and drowns. Not just a few and once in a while but 49 in one day and 233 in a week…
I dragged a good friend out of the water in America once, as he was actually drowning in less than two feet of water. Because he decided to swim while drinking whiskey. (You can drown in very little water by the way)
I will tell it like I told him, “You better get your act together because I may not be there next time to pull your stupid Butt out of the water…”
Sorry, but this pisses me off…

Wow I have read your article and by the way I found you website on Bing and I think after I read some posts on you website especially this one I have my own comment about what should I tell on the next hang out with my friends, maybe tomorrow I will tell my family about this one and get debate. I never dreamed that Russia gets this hot. I hope everyone is going to be OK.
It really is incredible how quite a few men and women do not understand this. Thank you for this incredibly informative write-up, and pardon my English. I really mean what say!
I hope you have a great day! Very good article, well written and very thought out. I am looking forward to reading more of your posts in the future. I like it!
I hear that it is getting better now. But according to the Western Press Russians have all died in Moscow. Are you alone there? Dumb press!
Is is really that much coler in the summer than this. I am in India and temp are always hotter than this. Feel sorry for them. It must be a shok!
Sorry about english!
finally found somewhere with helpful info. thanks and keep it coming
Sad news but Russians have no concept of health and safety and risks and their consequences. i see it everyday here in Moscow.
My church has been praying for you all!
Still going on and still happening! What a tragedy. 3600 have lost their homes. They say that they are building new homes.
Grow up stupid Russians!
Ouch, I did not know about this!
Maybe Darwin was right after all….
they probably arent used to that kind of heat. Imagine coping with -30c, then having +36c!!
MOSCOW – SEVENTY-ONE people drowned in Russia in a single day, officials said on Tuesday, as many sought relief from a prolonged heatwave by jumping into lakes and rivers.
The Russian emergency ministry registered 85 cases of people getting into difficulties in water, with 71 people drowning in the last 24 hours alone, it said on its website on Tuesday.
‘This is a record number of drownings in a 24-hour period out of those registered this year,’ a spokeswoman for the ministry, Veronika Smolskaya, told AFP.
Last year, 2,733 Russians drowned. Most of those who died were drunk and swimming off beaches without guards or safety equipment, the ministry said.
This summer the toll looks likely to be much higher, as Russia has seen a prolonged heatwave with temperatures reaching 35 degrees Celsius in Moscow on Saturday. Almost 2,500 people have drowned already this year, 1,244 of them in June alone. So far in July, the toll stands at 689.
The Interfax news agency said that in recent weeks Mondays had proved by far the most lethal day of the week for swimming in Russia this summer, with 52 also killed on Monday, July 12. — AFP
I don’t wish anything bad on these Russian folks – but, 93 degrees? I live in Georgia – South Georgia (that would be Georgia in the USofA). 93 degrees is getting close to sweater weather. AND – when it gets hot here – the guys swill beer. Plus – now I don’t mean to brag – the fellas around here can drink, go swimming, fishing, hunting – and hardly ever kill themselves or someone else. I think a fact finding tour is in order to find out why the Russians don’t know how to stay wet and drunk without getting killed.
Can you not see how pathetic Russians are. They can not withstand the simplest things such as heat and drought. Seems that they are a weak people! Looks like the USA needs to attack while Russia is groveling on the ground and begging for help. At least the USA refused help from the worlds assholes and stood on our own two feet. Weakness they name is Russia – Strength thy name is USA!
