  • Total badass

  • american prisons are paradise, compared to this.

  • What's the name of the song in the beginning and where can i find it? Please..

  • @Shades420X YES! Finally found it! The song is sung by one Diena Vierny. I don't know who wrote it though, however, considering it's a folk song the writer may be unknown - or Vierny wrote it. The song is called 'Chants Du Goulag'- watch?v=_xIU0qRVntg - for the whole song!

  • @sam91004 Thank You! :)

  • какая песня в начале фильма и 0:14:20

  • i love the american prison it;s the disneyland/dreamland,the best prison in the entire world..as an inmate you'll get free tv, hot meals 3x/day,free medicines, free lodging, and free security and free to spit at the guards and at the nurses or harrass the employees and still have the right to file a lawsuit against them..

  • Wow that beheading guy can tap dance! lol

  • Whatever with all you Russians thinking you're so tough and every facet of your life is so hardcore - tired of the dumb sterotype. Your little russian ass would get raped by a black or hispanic gang in a US prison.

  • @dnj86 Seriously, you’re just an ignorant uneducated bag of hot gas who probably couldn’t even find Russia on a map.

  • @Marcfj

    Another lousy sterotype, like every American is geography challenged... and just what does an uneducated bag of hot gas even mean? lol

  • Damn those conditions are fuckin' harsh! i'm no keyboard warrior, nor feel inclined to try and "big myself up" over the internet for the approval of strangers so this is streight shooting. Currently 27 and I was in jail in Glasgow back in 04' at the age of 19 for 18 months and being an English dude it was pretty fuckin' intense I can tell you,FAR from easy *that's just reality not playing a hero* but in retrospect it was a cakewalk compared to what these guys go through.

  • @Lynchology101 I've been made a ward of state by the age of 15. Been in jail in Holland for a couple of years, 25 years old now, mental hospitals etc. If u do less then 3 years in jail here u get in a prison that is alot more easy then if u have to do more, u get in alot of shit. Anyway easier then Brittain anyway. But this is bloody shocking, u have to be a real hard basterd to survive in there. A fucking dog has more privilages. I couldnt do time in there.

  • if this was the prison system in america there would be a lot less criminals there!!...those fuck tards think it is cool to do something and go to prison and be back...dumb cunts!!!

  • No offence to us convicts, but US prisons are no where near this hard...the system is the shot caller...not an individual. Look at the prisoners they look half dead, they dont have cookies and twinkies here boys

  • Russian is not a race people its a nationality....how ignorant are you people

  • I love to see bad people in prison. It makes me feel good.

  • Очень интересный фильм! Спасибо всем, кто приложил руку к его созданию.

  • And it does seem 80's 90's ish?Fuck all that

  • Every race has strong and weak individuals.So shut the fuck up with the whole American vs russian vs black vs mexican bullshit!Some will win some wont thats life.Theres no stronger race duck tards!!!!!

  • I LOVE PRISON DOCS SO MUCH THAT I NOW LIVE IN ONE!

  • russians are jus like blacks jus a bunch of dumass animals wat losers

  • @gibroniloco Here some information for you dumb cunt. Russia was the first to make a intercontinental missile, first to launch a satellite, first to send an animal into space, first photos of the moons dark side, first person in space, first probe to mars, first space robot, first space station... I can continue much more. Learn some fucking shit you stupid cock sucker.

  • @2007TypeR Yeah, and look at Russia now. Shame...

  • @OkashiOkashiPoo thats why all they produce is shitty people

  • @gibroniloco your mother should be slapped for squeezing a disgusting thing like you out.

  • u are supposed to get out a better person...

  • @91utuber how would that happen tho, jails worse den the hood g

  • Pussy ass russians couldn't handle the us

  • @JoeGtheCheese Are you being deliberately stupid or are you just missing a chromosome? Russian criminals who have spent time in the Russian prison system consider American prisons to be a piece of cake. In fact, anyone with half a brain in his head can see the difference between the starved and emaciated bodies of the Russian prisoners and their iron-pumping American counterparts. The truth is the Russian prison system would break 99% of America's toughest criminals.

  • @Marcfj bullshit, have you ever been to america prison?

  • If i told you i got outa prison not to long ago.Would it make you less likely to try my channel?..I want people to see even though im a ex-con i have a huge heart and great Humor.I tell my story of my First time In PRISON on my channel.It is a funny and inspiring story most say! Its gotten me over 600 subs in a month! Im just an average hippie who ended up in prison for failing a drug test.Next thing ya know im in a prison for 4 months.I also have comedy videos.And a hot chick Punches my face :)

  • Very interesting, thanks for the upload!

  • the tattoist ran the tattoo gun into his hand and then started tattoing the other guy ? christ they must be full of hiv/disease

  • This doc is so dope. what year waqs it in?

  • @abk4202020 seems like 90s

  • А русских нет?

  • @Dantte896 есть

  • damn

  • Just saw Louis Theroux's documentary about San Quentin. Looks lik paradise compared to this.

  • what you would do getting treated like that????

    or friends or relatives of you

    i guess i would become  a killer

  • the second most depressing documentary I have seen afetr one I watched about the holocaust,

    brilliantly done though

  • Astounding documentary!!

  • Yes you do have the right to tattoo whatever you want. You don't have to be a criminal and "cool" to be locked up. Lol. I have some cool, respectable tats. All these foreign documentaries are funny. I've watched many in US and Russian, Germany......get over it. Don't get hammered and do the crime. Retards :)

  • One of the most beautiful films I've ever seen. Thanks.

  • An unhappy man remains a sinner, why jail?

  • At 0:14:19 what does the sign say? I only got as far as "enter with permission". Great video

  • what happens to the goats when they get out, do they end up in the bottom of a river or what?

  • with the corruption in russia how come these rich russian mobsters can't invest in better prisons i mean they will end up in there anyways, im sure they could make it a bit more comfortable..

  • I FOUND THAT SONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!! type 12-202008XXABCD and search :) thhe best part from this video starts 3:19.I dont even know how the fuck I found that hehe look at the views, someone post that song 3 years ago and got only 133 views.

    I was searching for this song maybe 3hours and finally :) have fun!

  • 38:00 Respect for this man

  • I want a translator. If I were in the mood to read, I'd google the subject.

  • the gulags were run by ashkenazi jews.

  • it was in 90s

  • fuck dude those guys have better tattoo's then most people despite it being illegal and them using ghetto ass methods lol

  • is good insight, but too much emphasis on tattoo's !!!

  • @77qpid I'd suggest you viewed this Doc' looking to & thru the stereoptypical + shallow understandings of Prisons, their Populations + the Principal Ingredients behind + w/ in both. Tatts in the Russ' Prison Sys' can be likened to Badges on Uniforms of Military Personnel, they go hand'n'hand w/ out question and serve the purpose of 'Order' (& more so in the old skool system vs. today but that's exactly what the Doc's All about, The Significance of (Prisoners) Tatts in Russ' Prisons). Wakey Wakey

  • I watched this last night it was insightful. I believe if they offered a general "life skills" (similar to class named "home economics" in America, was my thought) six months before release as it may prevent return. Prisoners in film (not sure about this version) stated Communist prison system treated them better than now, according to their opinion. Sincerely, Jason Lowen

  • These people are really well spoken

  • @zizp89 Yeah, notice no minorites and they discuss their criminal career paths. Several of them come across stable and centered. I did not see alot of tension and struggle with them.Thats what I saw..But I am sure many of those boys are very dangerous..The one guy who killed those 3 gypsies for hearing they robbed his mothers grave? He was tap dancing with a piano player after saying" I have my own rules, I'l let you stay in this world? Oh hell. I'l pass on this guy...haha

  • I LOVE PRISON DOCUMENTARIES

  • @MrLyricalBones yea me to can you plz give me some good documentaries names ?

  • @TheSmoshrules lockup raw is probably the best search for the channels "omilockup" and "omiblingbling" hes the king. also the "banged up abroad" series is good aswell.

  • @MrLyricalBones ill try lockup raw well thanks for the help buddy.

  • @MrLyricalBones FUCK YEA ! ... PRISONS ROCK

  • Comment removed

  • I liked the dance group from colony 15 :)

  • I knew that I was in for an unprecedented experience from the start when I found "Pink Ghetto" was involved in producing this piece. Thank you.

  • This is probably the tenth time I have watched this on your channel. Thank you kindly. =-}

  • @HaligonianType1 - you are very welcome!

  • Amazing film. Thank you for sharing.

  • Why did the subtitles end around 45.00 ?

  • Can anybody tell me when this documentary was made please

  • too bad this is going away and the drug dealers or addicts or pimps that were considered as scum now days are treated alright.The Thieves Law status can be bought now and is not as it used to be.Also all former soviet republic jails are having protective custody set up for child molesters or rapist when before they used to ged killed like the dogs they are!

  • at 14:00 he says leonardo davinci was a great person but nobody saw it that way

  • @kingofdeathrow What he said was, "Leonardo had a special gift, but he didn't see it, right?", which is very different to him being, 'a great person', to which you allude....Very different indeed.

  • @gawagney Subtitles are not accurate there, it should translate "Leonardo had a special gift, but NO ONE saw it"

  • @GetR3al I believe my question was: Why did the subtitles end at around 45mins into the video? ie. Why are there no more subtitles?.....Thanks for your reply, though. I do realise subtitles aren't generally acurate. I've watched enough foreign films, over the years, to realise that......Again, thanks anyway.

  • @gawagney They didnt end ? I can still see them after minute 45

  • @GetR3al They have on mine (just checked after reading your message).....Isn't technology wonderful??????????

  • How are they a super power?

  • @Squashylemon They have the largest country on Earth, plenty of natural resources, and hold the world's largest supply of nuclear munitions. 

  • @ChicagoProdigy lol, thats like saying china is a super power because they used to have a birth rate problem. 

  • @Squashylemon My point was Russia is a superpower because of their influence. 

  • There are prisons in the world that would have those tatts skinned off!

  • why are Russians so skinny?

  • @kikthatcan because they torture them, dont feed them, and are fearful for their life on a daily basis - if that doesn't shed pounds, I dont know what will ...

  • @kikthatcan why are you dumb ? they don't feed them 

  • 32 people are Goats

  • @rosaryfilms thank you so much for the upload, dude! this is amazing... some seriously fascinating and eye-opening stuff i would have never known about otherwise.

  • How on earth did someone manage to film this? must have payed some big bucks to right persons.. Russia does not wanna show it's bad sides to outsiders.. This is truly amazing video, thank you so much for it! poor people...

  • @nicehax I kinda disagree with you, but let's not forget (opinions,opinions)

    People in Russia know what the situation with the prison system is in Russia. People strongly agree with the standards of the russian prisons'. I also think that this is the way prisons need to be. You commit the crime, so you must also pay for it.

  • @MrGuitarrica I understand your point, and yet, it is demonstrated in all countries that in most cases, the experiences that convicts live in prison turns them into even worst criminals, so that when they come out, they are more dangerous than before. One must wonder what's wrong with the penitentiary system worldwide.

  • @itzaramaja It goes without saying that the 'state' of a Prison (Atmosphere, Environment, Purpose etc') is directly linked to the Atmosphere + Environment of 'The State' itself. In other words, The Penal System with in any given Country (1st, 2nd or 3rd 'type') is moulded primarily thru the Governing Nature with in its Borders. Therefore, if, "One must wonder what's wrong with the .." Penal System Worldwide, I'd suggest One Broaden Their Perspective of Freedom & (its) Gov'ts Worldwide. Simple!

  • I'll tell you an horror story. I live in a peaceful city close to Mexico City, where crime was low. Then they built a maximum security prison 45 mins away. That was 5 years ago. Now, my city is one of the most dangerous in Mexico, because criminals locked up there are cartel leaders who brought their families and gangs with them and my city is a war zone of 2 cartels. Prisons are supposed to make people feel safe, but in my city, a prison brought all our problems.

  • @itzaramaja very crazy stuff in mexico. 

  • @nicehax In the 90's you could buy off pretty much any official in Russia for pretty god damn cheap.

  • @nicehax they claim they dont but they do. showing things like this shows just how hard the criminals in russia are. and if the criminals there are harder than the ones in america or another country, people tend to not wanna fuck with them. hard criminals = hard society.

  • @nicehax This was made after the cold war, thats how.

  • @nicehax Who told this bullshit

  • That was fantastic, thank you so much for sharing.

  • lmfao what a shit hole!

  • @getfuckedanddie1 lmao ? dumb fuck

  • Russia is rich spiritually. Each Russian feels it. All the rest - on the second place.

  • I know he's a convicted murderer and has probably done terrible things, but the speech from 1:05:15 is still one of the most tragic things I've ever heard.

  • could someone tell me the name of the song at 14:30?

  • @BigDog91527 it isn't a song that is well known. it doesn't even exist on the internet

  • @Thetr0ble how can you know it doesn't exist on the internet? I'm guessing it must come from somewhere, he probably didn't write it himself.

  • @BigDog91527 bc i have searched all over the internet, in both english and russian, for the song, and it simply cannot be found. there are though a few songs that are a bit similar,

  • @Thetr0ble how did you search it, did you write the lyrics themselves and searched that way? Most known songs can easily be found just by searching a part of the lyrics. The thing is though i don't understand Russian and it's pretty unlikely to find it in English.

  • @BigDog91527 i did search it in every possible way with random lines and etc

  • @Thetr0ble yeah ok. I'll probably find out some day.

  • @BigDog91527 dang i liked that song too :/ let me know if you find it

  • @Zvezdas8 Will do

  • I don't get it...as I'm reading the comments a lot of people are expressing their sympathy for the Russian prisoners. But if I were to watch a video on anything involving human rights violations of innocents in the middle east or poorer nations, the comments are hateful, hurtful, and narcissistic. What's wrong with humanity? Jeez...

    (Not that sympathy for the prisoners is bad, but the double standard is fucking ridiculous.)

  • @tickycup Russian criminals are chess players, singers, musicians, and artists. Criminals from third world countries are ignorant talentless fools. In this case, the psycopathic yet smart Russian criminals have been tortured on a weekly bases so they are emotionally and psychologically broken, thus the pity.

  • @MyTheDarkKnight russia is closer to a third world country than " first " world 

  • @ulverup People aren't starving, russia has nukes, it's in the G-8. Good enough resume. Corrupt as hell sure, but you can't take those things away from russia. It's better than living in Rwanda.

  • @MyTheDarkKnight yep , but the average russian isn't really that much better off than a mexican for example .

  • @ulverup well it used to be the "second world"

  • The conditions in Russian prisons are tough, because life in some parts of Russia are not much better for some people and the prison cease to be the sentence if they improve it. Example- watch?v=7pkEWAzVGWw

  • Poverty is the biggest punishment

  • Cronenberg's right...How did this film ever get made...must have been some serious conection high up. Nice one, cheers for putting it up.

  • @SnapperGrogan - thanks!

  • Some of these guys are seriously hot. No, not the gypsie or the guy with the celtic crosshair cross who is annoying and only had that one crappy tattoo anyway. These prisons make American joints look like a vacation.

  • the chick with the Genie of addiction tattoo is fucking fine man....beautiful tits

  • it's like a fucking dungeon. US prisoners wouldn't last a month . 

  • The gulag lives on. All those guys look like they are starving.

  • They all looks and behaves like they get the beat up every second day.

    Latinos and blacks should go to the russian prisons for some serious rehab.

  • I'm deeply impressed especially after watching documentaries about american prisons. Not because of the conditions but because of the mentality of these men.

  • Comment removed

  • awesome doc, thanks for the upload dude

  • @cosmonaut1100 = thank you very much

  • Great film. The people are speaking for themselves instead of a voice-over.

    The tats are amazing.

  • @vivaloriflamme - thanks!

  • @vivaloriflamme - thanks for watching!

  • I always get sad when I see prison tattoo artists. Some of these guys are some of of the best visual artists in the world. And the tattoos they make with crude homemade guns look better than any tattoo parlor. They shouldn't be in prison,they should be running their own shop. Sooo sad.

  • what the fuck was that at 0;50;42

  • miami ink guys u watchin this get that convict tatoo artist released from jail he will make you loads of money

  • Russian prisons, Hell on earth?

  • @TheFoenni half of Russia is in Europe yes, the other half in Asia, dumbfuck

  • Yes US has better living conditions (than Ukraine where i'm live) and a lot of things with what you can live like a God but even when we don't have flickering NY, Vegas etc.shit, I love my Motherhood (with crime and other huge problems), Ukrainians, Russians, Belorussians... and I don't want to live in US because we have such thing which West wouldn't ever have. I can't describe you what it is but if even I can, you don't understand that.

  • @vovakrivbass Vegas is a pit. It's like that Star Wars bar-- you fly in to a weird desert planet where you get drunk and get professionally robbed.

  • I watched these video and video "America's Hardest Prisons". What can i say?

    In US prisons:

    -prisoners look very healthy, happy, very often laughing, etc.

    -they have badminton court, basketballs area, gyms huge as walking area in russian prison etc.

    In post-USSR prisons:

    -despair, crippled heart and soul, depletion, deadly diseases, humility

    -living conditions which in US even animals don't live.

    After that America's "hardest" prisoners look like celebrities on their expensive vocation.

  • @vovakrivbass Thats because in the US its a business. FACT America has moree people inprisoned than EVERY country in the world! Its a huge money maker. All at tax payers expence. Tell me, would you get a 30 day sentence for driving on a suspended license? Here in the good ol' USA, some people do 5 yeares for this offense! And now w/ privitized prisons, the need to arrest EVERYONE for something is sky high. Privitized Prison or jail w/empty Cell = Profit Loss.

  • @vovakrivbass and look @5:45, its stated that MOSTLY they house murderers, robbers, and rapists. GOOD, violent criminals NEED to be locked in implorable conditions. But what about non-violent crimes? Almost 50% of incarcerated US inmates are non-violent. Its BullShit and I'M personally a victim of "The War on Drugs"

  • @vovakrivbass You got tht right.. same here in brasil.. prisons down here are scarier than HELL

  • Well, if you commit a crime, then better not get caught.

  • whats the song in after 2 minutes when they show all tattoos ?

  • Wow thank you for posting this great video

  • @5835421 - you are very welcome!

  • damn once communist russia

  • I watched this from start to finish. Absolutely fantastic but Jesus...harrowing or what?

  • i wonder, is there a death penalty in U.S.S.R? if so, what?

  • i wanna go to russia. i could walk around with white people

  • Wow as bad as Nazi death camp. Hard to make out any difference. Horror

  • what's the song in the beginning?

  • Finally, people who makes tattoos means something, better than those fags who makes tattoos and think they are so cool

  • Ya ljublju eta!! Amerikantsy mozhet nyet ruchka eta lecheniy! :)

  • a european or american prison would be like a holiday for this people

  • @shalomyo yes I. S? prisons are welcomes compared to ehat these guys survive...check out the movie Eastern Promises...pretty intetesting

  • @thetrismegistusone That is U. S. Prisons on my previous comment

  • @thetrismegistusone

    its alryt movie, but the actors dont look nor act russian (apart from some tattoos)

  • @shalomyo agreed
