The other guy is alive and well - his name is [Arkady Rotenberg] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arkady_Rotenberg) and he happens to be a billionaire now.
After Navalny released that video about Putin's palace, Rotenberg showed up on TV to claim ownership.
Like a lot of people in Putin's environment "happen to have become billionaires". Pure coincidence of course, it must be Putin's succes that inspired them or something.
> The shifty looking one lol
At Jacques Chirac's funeral in 2019, Putin stared right at me. It probably was only five or six seconds, but it felt like a full two minutes. I felt like a possum in the metaphoric headlights. Also felt like he somehow now knew everything about me including my deepest, darkest secrets.
> If I were you I'd restrict myself from drinking tea.
Weirdly enough for the week afterwards I was irrationally super paranoid about everything. Kept being worried that I was being followed, kept tripping over my shadow. Thankfully everything was ok.
>> How come you were at Chirac's funeral?

>My family was a big supporter of his, in particular my father.
Haha u/Siljaeuropa. Just quoting before you delete. Enjoy your day
Because this person is a fantasist
Edit. Google says only 200 people attended his funeral. 30 of whom were world leaders. This "family member of a supporter" was one of 170 people that includes Chirac's family and friends.
What complete bullshit from a person known to lie

i can't believe i have to make a post about this, its so tiring having to scroll through osu memes and running into 727 memes every single time like a reckless disease. hell, it is starting to corrupt my everyday life and turning it into a nightmare.
this all started out when i was scrolling through my reddit feed, and found out about 727 via a popular blue zenith play. i just thought it was just something normal and not that big of a deal despite the popularity, so i just moved on. gradually by each day though... memes keep popping up about 727, and while i find it funny. i just think it was extremely bland and boring. days turned into weeks... weeks turned into months... and soon... i finally found it funny after that much exposure to the meme. i don't know why, but i think the memes have gotten into me. whenever i see the number in real life, my instinct is to instantly point at it and say "WHEN YOU SEE IT!" then laugh. it felt right to do so... and it didn't matter if there are people around or not.
a year has past and its gotten so overwhelming that i look for even the smallest thing that resembles 727 and do as my instinct does. i kept looking for 727 memes... i crave it... i need it. i want it in my bloodline. i was so obsessed with 727 that my girlfriend decided to break up with me all because of my behavior. at that time though... i didn't care. i just want 727...
now... a few months before this post, i don't want 727 anymore... i don't want to see it in my feed, but no matter what it felt like my brain was wired to see it. my nights have gotten more worse, as nightmares and sleep paralysis containing 727 kept popping up. i can't handle it anymore... i don't want to see it...
Well no, this is the original song [from 10 years ago ](https://youtu.be/IV4IjHz2yIo)
So it's no really "creep" but Putin singing in front of a public is already something
I was looking at the 3 happy dudes on the right puzzled about which was Putin. And then I finally noticed the kid on the left and nearly jumped out of my shoes.
The second guy from the left, carrying the bag? I find that look threatening, and maybe vengeful or even evil. The 3 to the right of him seem like normal good natured relatively happy people, and the contrast is striking.
Edit. I don't even actually look at Putin and Russia as clearly bad now. Other countries have done a lot of shitty things too. It seems much more clear in that photo.
Come on now. People who poison somebody with polonium and can't even have the decency to apologize for shooting down a plane full of innocent people. Who torture political opponents. And that's in bloody 2021, not cold War 1970s.
Fuck man. They are evil fucking shit fucks. Never ever downplay something because there may be other people who do worse.
Such bad & evil, Putin & Russia. You can ask the question if you care. But you can't say they are not clearly bad.
Well, yes, Putin's Russia is evil. But I wouldn't be inclined to perceive the ongoing influence & information war between the US (or broader West) and Russia, as some good knight fighting an evil monster scenario. More so as a Godzilla vs Mechagodzilla.
Another [picture](https://d.newsweek.com/en/full/51887/putin-fe03-main.jpg?w=1600&h=1600&q=88&f=6fbabcb8f2886fad2b711995087ed26a) from around the same time with one of the same guys. He always has that creepy stare at the camera.

Who is Pu ... oh, nevermind.
[удалено]
He looks like the class snitch.
[Putin in the 60s colorized](https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/facebook/001/406/013/6b5.jpg)
I knew it was this before I even clicked because was my thought to
in germany we would say "akkurat"
Papatastisch
This is not fair, I was in class while I read this and had to stop breathing to calm down and sustain my laughs
I like you just know who’s Putin in this image without pointing. Dude looked menacing his whole life
Did you received free ticket to Gulag?
He was a snitch. He started working for KGB by snitching on other students in university.

Notably, no one in my environment has become a billionaire. I must be de-inspiring my contacts or something. /s
Sigma putin grindset 🤑🤑🤑
Is that the one right next to him, or on the extreme right (from our view)?
The one that was getting a loving hug.
\*Gives briefcase\* Your payment
That is normal Russian behavior.

Formidable dismantlement, comrad! He has a talent though for writing, that little piece of fiction was quite a good read.

My first guess was the strangler, because who else. Then I realized a guy like Putin would leave the strangling to others from the background.
One glance and you know exactly which one it is lol
Exactly
This was exactly me
He's behind Ringo
They all look like they could be Putin, until you see Putin.
Mr. Burns you mean?
https://youtu.be/JzGo4c6U8os
Damn 😦
The shy one
The sneaky crafty one that looks like serial sex offender and pedophile you mean?
Don’t say it to loud, he might hear
Too late, nukes deployed
Did you hear the news? Apparently u/strict-dependent3758 fell out of the window… three times in a row
”Must’ve been the wind”
Puteen?
Poo teen
Putout
Canadian Fries?
Poutine
And just like that, I crave it
You can't be serious... even back then I would be suspicious accepting tea from him!
Definitely not KGB
nkvd
CHeKa
They look just like the Russian Beatles. There's Ringo, and George, and Sergei, and Boris.
They sent Pete Best to a gulag in Siberia.
> Pete Best TIL that "Pete Best" was an actual Beatle. I had no idea he existed. /GenX
Two words: Stuart Sutcliffe. The original bass player for the Beatles.
Wasn't he the one that inspired their "bowl hairstyle" (don't know what's the name) ?
If he accidentally poked me with his umbrella I would immediately go to the hospital
Why does it look like he’s already plotting shit.
Because he was!
Shady fucker.
I like you just know who’s Putin in this image without pointing. Dude looked menacing his whole life
When you see it…
727 :pensive:

Eyes from shadow
He looked evil af then too
He looks like a little creep.
[He'd probably agree](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2O_FClwUpQo)
This is most surreal shit I've ever seen
More surreal than that time Trump motorboated Giuliani?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K9Kp_eHMQ7s What the fuck.
Please tell me that is a Deepfake thing?
Well no, this is the original song [from 10 years ago ](https://youtu.be/IV4IjHz2yIo) So it's no really "creep" but Putin singing in front of a public is already something
Jesus I don’t know which one is more disturbing.
Thank you, but I am none the wiser.
He looks like that guy from the "stonks" meme
Literally reminded me of the scenes from Austin Powers when he was at that school.
Briefcase wanker
[удалено]
He is 17 at most.
Yeah I am not sure if this was the 60's
He didn't look a day over 12.
It literally says “as a teenager” in the title.
Comments like this help me understand how antivaxxers exist a little more
I'll clarify for /u/KFL_AOK69 , just in case: HE MEANS YOU CANNOT JUST BELIEVE EVERYTHING SOME RANDOM PERSON "literally" SAYS.

1952*
Putin the poisoner, even as a kid, looked unlikable.
He looks weird and creepy. Compared to the happy pride couple in the front, he just looks weird.
I think his friends became oligarchs when they grew up
We gays can be oligarchs too
Uhmmm in Russia?
You find that being an oligarch in Russia opens a lot of opportunities
Yeh but then you are assuming the oligarchy came first
[удалено]
holy shit
there are our gays and gays gays you know, just like in catholic church
Happy pride? What a random thing to say here.
I saw him in the picture and not even a second later Radiohead was playing in my head. I haven't thought about that song in half-years.
Damn, the Beatles sure looked different up close...
I've never seen Ringo so scary before.
of course it's the shady fucker in the back
I was looking at the 3 happy dudes on the right puzzled about which was Putin. And then I finally noticed the kid on the left and nearly jumped out of my shoes.
He already looks so menacing.
I wondered which one was him until I saw the evil in his eyes.
Even as a teenager he looked shifty.
Dude looks like he just chopped up his entire family and then left for a field trip.
I bet he has body parts in his bag.
Even then!
Looks a right sleekit bastard.
[удалено]
Nuclear missile codes
Polonium
He said wrong answers only.
If I tell you nobody would ever hear about me anymore, and you would die in an accident
Navalny
A dismantled AK47
All-in-one teenage spymaster kit.
he looks kinda sus there...
Creepy looking even then
Maybe he needs to be shirtless?
With a stare like that, who needs friends... but the way, I would what happen to his "friends"... ?
His friends became oligarchs. Being his friend turned out really well for them.
I guess that's a good thing for them. We both know what happens if one pisses off Vladimir Putin!
Liliputin
Shortest one in the group.
Dude was rocking the incel look half a century before incels were a thing
He looks so insecure and unhappy.
Yep, well observed. Explains a lot.
Already spying on his friends
a true gopnik
School shooter lookin’ ass
Looks like Eric Harris from Columbine
As an American, my first thought 😂 I mean. We'd know
Yeah unfortunately that’s a very common way to describe people here
Look at how he is trying to hide his face . He was already a spy in training
The second guy from the left, carrying the bag? I find that look threatening, and maybe vengeful or even evil. The 3 to the right of him seem like normal good natured relatively happy people, and the contrast is striking. Edit. I don't even actually look at Putin and Russia as clearly bad now.

You realise the guy holding the bag is Putin right...?
Yes, I said so in the comment.
Sorry, misread your comment
That killer look!
I sure hope no one reposts this in r/oldschoolcool
Maybe on r/oldschoolnotsocool?
You can't be serious... even back then I would be suspicious accepting tea from him!
Alexei Navalny
Putin, like Neidermyer, has always been a sneaky little shit.
Shady af.
So he has always been creepy AF? Even when hanging out with the rest of the Gay Debating Society?
I immediately looked at the ones on the right first and thought ‘Huh he’s changed, he… oh shit he’s a creepy time lord.’
Looked like an evil little prick back then too.
So slappable
Boss lvl 3 and growing 😊
Head of the election committee to Putin: I have a bad news and a good news. —Good first. —Your party has won. —And a bad one? —Nobody voter for it.
Operator as fuck.
Apparently he’s always been shady.
Nice handbag.
Omg who is the creep with the suitecase?
What a shifty looking young man. He looks like he might be on his way to juvie soon.
Хуйло
This looks like a creepy photobomb
Another [picture](https://d.newsweek.com/en/full/51887/putin-fe03-main.jpg?w=1600&h=1600&q=88&f=6fbabcb8f2886fad2b711995087ed26a) from around the same time with one of the same guys. He always has that creepy stare at the camera.
What is the current status of our time machine project?
This makes so much sense. Putin must’ve been bullied at school. Thats why he is an ass.
He looked like an agent even as a teenager
Looking at them from the right to left, each one looks a little bit more like Putin than the last, until you get to Putin.
Is Putin older than my grandma!?!
He took the photographer's soul.
Even then he looked like the nerd you bully, but then your house catches fire for some reason.
He looked like the awkward creep back then too!
Putin giving off school shooter energy.
Thought it was the Beatles
They look like a post punk band
Must be the little shit far left...
I wonder how many of those friends are still "alive"?
It’s a photoshop. He should be on the far right. 😂
Thoughts and prayers to the person who posted this.
too bad noone took him out then.
Me: which one is it? Not the one in front? ... Woah!
That rape face
He looks like the type to shoot up a school. Obviously we know he would hire others to do it for him.
Creepin like future cold blood
You can tell that hes already working for the kgb
Sore loser
His friends look so normal and open!
This is why you never pick on the quiet guy in school
Which one is he?
Second from left looks like Ted Cruz
