Rumour has it that Stalin choked to death from Lenins' embalmed nuts getting lodged in his throat. Sounds plausible to me......

@wowFTW897 Proofread your scribble before posting moron. Context, chronology. Lenin was embalmed first and Stalin , later, choked to death on Lenins nuts. Lack of oxygen getting to Stalins brain shouldn't have clouded your thinking.

Ah :D 240p we meet again....

the young man screw up his courage and said that it is impossible to him to express in mere words his gratitude for Stalins generousity. Stalin laughed about that loudly, and said: Everything is alright- because you won`t be mistaken another time!!"

, because serious consequences might have resulted for an accidentally mistake.

Stalin disseminated pure angst everywhere, so one might say that he`s responsible for his own death.

After the war Stalin had a new waiter. The nervous young man tried to pour into the crystal jar, but inadvertently he failed, Stalins coat got a little bit wet. Everybody freezed because of the fear of death of Stalin, they thought that the waiter will be sent to Gulag. But this evening Stalin was in generous mood. so

Nonsense. Stalin had an apoplectic stroke.

He died because of this crippling stroke and a bad cerebral hemorrhage.

Everybody refused to go into Stalins room, because everybody was frightened to death of the possible aftermath if Stalin would have survived. For example: Stalins old butler: If I would`ve gone into Stalins`room, seeing him lying on the floor in his own urine - Stalin would`ve send him to death because of that humiliation.

Nearly everything was incalculable in Stalins state.

There's no proof that he WASN'T assassinated. Therefore, he must have been assassinated! Haha, what is this? The history channel?

Estimates indicate Stalin murdered 20 million of his own people. How those surrounding him could go along with such heinous crimes against humanity is beyond my understanding. People truly are like sheep, I suppose.

Under Stalin's rule, weren't weathermen executed for making mistakes in forecasting the weather ???

Must've been a brutal time to be alive in Russia, living under this evil killer.

Beria offed him.

It will take ages for a Russian agency to become credible. How about broadcasting Eisenstein instead?

@gnarbotz Looks like you've done your homework; I stand corrected. You're right, they were all a gang of violent, frustrated fags!
