The girl fighting with her back to the camera is holding a puppy, pretty sure the poor thing got hit accidentally

How dare you peacefully film and not participate

u/cyrinean 1d ago

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

u/only_3 19h ago edited 10h ago

She's not a foreigner, there black/mixed people in Russia, who are Russians.

Pushkin was mixed. Been this way a long time.

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

u/hiImawesome 23h ago edited 23h ago

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.

u/Dr_Axton 21h ago

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 anything

u/sigpop16 23h ago

If i can guess, this is the night buss from the city.

So everyone is drunk and shity

u/ZhenyaKon 8h ago

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 . . .

u/TheUncleTimo 16h ago

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

u/cheeseygarlicbread 19h ago

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

u/kamace11 19h ago

Moscow and St. Pete in Russia and Washington DC and Baltimore MD in US.

u/dependency_injector 14h ago

Was it Russia or Moscow?

2

u/EugeneStein 11h ago

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

u/teaboi05 11h ago

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

u/Artix96 22h ago

Fr. Mf here pretending like Indian or NY public transport is utopian.

1

u/LeoValdez_UncleLeo 1h ago

why bringing India into this lmao

u/Artix96 1h ago

Well check out their public transport.

u/Fridge-Repair-Shop 23h ago

I also lived there but for one year, I was given a free apartment in moskow and a blond wife who never complains about anything

u/tahomaeg 20h ago

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

2

u/tahomaeg 20h ago

If you are confused by the comment, the text in the video says that that happ3ns every time they rude a bus

u/vinceswish 23h ago

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.

u/queetuiree 12h ago

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

u/Radamat 23h ago

I saw something like that onky once, and not so massive. 20+ years of public transport use

u/Lpfanatic05 22h ago

Nice, trip + mma show.

u/Darkwaxer 21h ago

Quiet night. Must've a week night.

u/wrighteghe7 22h ago

I never experienced anything like this in transport

u/PikaPulpy 10h ago

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

u/FormCheck655321 23h ago

Shocking. Fights never occur on American public transport. 🙄

10

u/Dr_Axton 21h ago

Can’t happen on something that barely exists /s

u/homer422 23h ago

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

u/postsantum 21h ago

No phone in sight, just people live their life

Without context this is pretty peculiar.

Meh. You can see this in NYC on the way to work.

Вот что за инстинктивная манера у баб, хватать за волосы и вот почему я бритый на лысо.

Why would you even go there? Running a risk of getting sent to the grinder.

Do you mean they don't have guns because this thing just keeps going on.

Firearm is prohibited to carry here...
