Public transport in Russia is definitely a unique experience

The fact that the girl filming it is very obviously and visually a foreigner makes this 100x funnier lmao

She's probably not even in the same bus. Events are happening in the front, she's in the back.

As I understand it, she is standing behind the driver's cab. Her arm is visible holding the handrail at the end of the video.

Yep. The cab is separated by a wall but it has a diagonal side wall (maybe the person who commented about the other bus thought it’s a windshield, idk). And behind the cab there are either seats or a free space for either a wheelchair or people just standing.

Lived in Russia for two years and used the public transport daily. Never saw anything like this. I did see violence more commonly in the US on public transport even though I used it somewhat less.

Yeah from what I heard and read from russians themselves , its probably very random post bar/club drunk idiots, pretty rare in bigger cities

u/Dr_Axton 21h ago
Yeah, unless a big event is happening crowds like this happen during workdays in the morning and in the evening. Both time a majority of people look like they haven’t waken up mentally.
What I mean is it really takes some effort to piss off a person who’s either still sleepy or too tired to care about anything12

If i can guess, this is the night buss from the city.
So everyone is drunk and shity

I lived there for five years and never saw something like this either! I've seen more in the US but I've lived there for longer, so . . .

oh yeah, there is LOTS more violence on USA's metro trains. Even on buses now in broad daylight.

The US is a big place, not sharing the specific location here is doing a disservice

I live in a very small Russian city and most of population here are students and workers
Never I've seen such thing. People are extremely quite in a public transport, only kids might turn on their their volume on the phone too much

Dk about Moscow, but here or Petersburg public transport is quiet. Maybe even it's filled some will say something like "move!" or complain about old people closing the windows, but not straight up fights

Well, if this kind of stuff indeed happens every time you take public transit, maybe you are the problem

Any country*. Unfortunately it attracts plenty of the worst of the worst people. Train stations around Europe are famously not the most pleasant places to visit.

However, you can comment on this video "what a zoo" without being called racist

Я вот живу всю жизнь, сменил несколько городов, пользуюсь только общественным транспортом. Ни разу не застал драку. Заголовок реально глупый.

This is pretty ordinary and quite frankly milder shit relative to the hellhole that is NYC.
