Just a few decades ago many feared total annihilation, with the Soviet and American atomic superpowers hovering over the red button. The threat is now past, but some of the nuclear bunkers still exist today, giving tourists a living history tour. Victor Baranov is a tour guide at "Bunker 42" museum in Moscow. Some 30 years ago the bunker used to be operational 24/7, ready to protect people from a possible nuclear attack. In order to do so effectively, the facility has specially-designed walls and door.

  • GO RUSSIA!!  AGAINST THE ZIONISTS IN US & REST OF THE WORLD !!

  • Whoops an American child broke some stuff!

    It's alright, Russia has lots of replacements!

    The difference being that many museums are strict about people viewing historical pieces.

    This is one of the few that I actually see some interaction and learning.

    Not to mention, Russia relied on numbers rather than strict advancements during the Cold War. History... got to love it. History Channel... Aliens!

  • get out of here stalker...

  • impressive. I believe US and Russia both finally figured that they shouldn't be stupid enough to fight each other especially with the stockpiles they both stowed lol

    NORAD was better built though
