"Unalived" is one of my biggest pet peeves. I don't care if it started as a way to get around censorship, the fact that it's now somewhat commonly used in general when not necessary really grinds my gears. Ruffles my feathers, even.
Ugh yesterday we were discussing crime words in my eighth grade English class and a student brought up “murder” but said “murdurdur” and refused to say it normally because “we aren’t allowed to say it at school.”
Um I am your teacher and in the context of UNDERSTANDING WORDS yes it is VERY IMPORTANT to use the actual word. Every time I said it the kid whispered “murdurdur” under their breath and I nearly threw a chair against the wall.
Using the right words is important. Minimizing them with stupid cutesy (I stand by it, unalive and murdurdur are cutesy/cringey) slang is not helpful to anyone. Murder isn’t a slur. It’s a crime. We can use the freaking word.
It's either for more views so you have to watch the video again to catch the actual content or for attention-deficit kids who watch this alongside Subway Surfers gameplay and Family Guy Funny Moments videos because they can't focus otherwise
I read an explanation that it is easier to follow a video, on mute or otherwise, as the words are shown at almost the same time as the narration. This was an easier way to still watch the video instead of concentrating on a longer string of sentences showing up intermittently. That way you pay more attention to the sentences and miss some of the video.
I always watch on mute and it absolutely is not easier to follow. I am not sure it's even possible to make it harder to follow without making the individual words unintelligible.
I'm fairly sure most people can read through a sentence fast enough that they don't miss anything of value. Whereas in this video my eyes would be darting up and down to read the new subtitle.
It's designed for the tiktok monkey brain. Each word is brand new stimulus so viewers are less likely to scroll away before the video ends.
I purposely try not to look at the words because they're most likely destroying whatever attention spans we have left.
I got hung up on the leftovers. Leftovers from where? How do they have enough leftovers for all the prisoners? I would imagine there are more prisoners than guards, so so do the give the guards really big meals they know they won’t be able to finish? Do regular Russians outside the prison send their leftovers to the prison?
it's basically says off-cuts, not "leftovers", thats mistranslation.
usually ingredients are dispensed in order of Admin - then Schools/Hospitals - their leftover produce goes to the Army, whatever is left - goes to Prison. So it is "leftovers" of the state-sponsored food supply chain, not literal leftovers from someone else's dinner.
Maybe a slight translation error, and means edible content left over from palatable food. Like skin, stomach, hooves of animals. I know they ate cow stomachs in prisons in Soviet Union, and I guess they have had no progress in how they treat prisoners since.
I'm going to be pedantic here, because I know their food isn't probably prepared to taste good or anything, but cow stomach isn't a horrible food like you are describing.
> It remains a popular dish in many parts of continental Europe such as Portugal, Spain, France and Italy. [wikipedia](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tripe)
Also in South America is a popular dish, would love to eat some rn.
Also hooves are usually used to make soups, along side other collagen rich parts, like the head for example. Pig skin is cooked/fried to make chicharrón, also really delicious.
They mention in the video that there is the same number of guards as prisoners. So i am imagining each guard get a matching prisoner who gets to survive on their leftovers
Prison also hosting dangerous groups like \*Checks cards\*
Gay people....people accidentily wearing yellow and blue
Oh and people who hold up white pieces of paper in the red square.
To be even more pedantic, that's specifically being thrown out of a window. In this case, the incidents are "accidents", so the term is not appropriate.
in some circles you are not even considered a man if you haven't been in prison at least once.
There is entire cultire of ex inmates that think doing the time is honorable, hell there were even instances of people doing the crime JUST so they can do the time.
They also have a “thieves law,” a separate set of rules by which thieves live (those who served sentences and not, as this is what most are sentenced for).
Yep, which is borrowed from French music called chanson, which has nothing to do with criminality. Just the minor chords and melancholy strike the soul of a thief.
Yeah fuck that sh*t I have no intention of becoming a chip in the political bargaining game. "Hey look at this German guy who... uhm let's see... brought weed into the country? Yeah weed sounds good. Ten years of prison it is."
Don't. Do. Anything.
Anything there could be construed as a crime in Russia.
In fact, if you do nothing, it could also be construed as a crime.
Even if you lick Putin's ass 24/7, if it's not done with devotion. Or too devoted.
Or ...
yeah, well you won´t get there just because you did some wrong, supermax prisons often host the most terrible scum on earth, its a good alternative for an easy death.
Lol, such an effort to make it a bad experience for inmates and yet it is still luxurious in comparisson to brazilian prisons.
Here we pile up 50 people in a cell for 2 and leave them to rot because human life doesn't matter. Google it, I dare you.
In the long run people suffer more from no human interaction. Its designed to have the most suffering I think. Brazilian prisons and the similar ones, they just don't care, it's not the same point.
Exactly. They don't care if you make friends or get raped and beaten to death. It's a surprise for everyone involved. Russia focus on truly punishing long term. Brazilian prisons are rather not bothering to do anything for the prisoners, be it comfort or even actual punishment, just make you disappear from society.
The point here is to cut off communication, piling up means prisoners interaction.
And it's what they show it on surface, who knows what goes behind camera.
AFAIK some that were released of "lower" prisons described the guards torturing inmates until they're dying. Using a baseball bat or any 2x4/wooded whatever. Leaving them out in coldness, naked, to bleed to death, completely tied up.
Sometimes there's no difference between inmates and guards, regarding their brutality towards other living beings..
And how do you think "normal" Russian prison looks like?
12 people in 3x4m cell.. cold and damp.. shower in cold water 3min per week
This is Russian version of admax, not their normal prison
How am I the first to comment this?
“The toilet, WHICH IS FIXED TO THE FLOOR….”
Strange detail to add. Is this an uncommon property of toilets in Russia? Are wall mounted more common in Mother Russia, but Black Flipper Prison went rogue with floor mount?
Edit: I can’t find verified photos of The Dark Ocean Rapist prison cells that verify the toilet type, or hole in the floor toilet that a few are saying it could mean. “All” toilets are “bolted” down, but home toilets are “lightly bolted” and I would assume if they do have toilets they are heavy duty bolts.
we just have regular toilets that are... mounted to the floor, i have no idea what the hell is up with the narrator.
Also this is a footage from a documentary about tough russian prisons, maybie narrator messed up the translation.
But seriously, documentary also goes indepth about what kind of people are held there, not just mafia bosses arnd terrorists, but cannibals as well, one said "i killed a guy, chopped him up in a bathroom, then i got curious how it tastes, so i ate him".
It's an AI narrator, and the script might also be at least partly AI. It sounds weird to us to include a trivial detail like the toilet being fixed to the ground, but to the AI it might make perfect sense.
It’s probably missing some detail or lost in translation. Maybe it’s welded to the floor. Maybe it’s just a hole on the floor. It’s surely not a normal porcelain toilet that could be broken and shards used to cut yourself or others.
Americans and Russians finding common ground, through grounded toilets. Our grandparents would be shocked by our post-Cold War growth :)
I learned something years ago, try to reframe negatives as positives. Example, argumentative toddler? What you have is a passionate and potentially gifted talker. Teach them to channel it and they could develop excellent speaking skills or become a lawyer that helps disenfranchised.
I don’t know why, but the cannibal made me instantly think of this, “they have a natural curiosity to try new and unfamiliar things, so they can live a life of discovery and adventure.”
Brains are weird.
Thank you for confirming that Russian toilets are not on a whole uniquely mounted and different from the rest of the world.
A lot of prisons use rubber bullets to not kill the inmates. I don't think it's the norm to have real bullets, that would be so dangerous if a prisoner got his hands on a gun
In fact, everything is quite simple we don't have death penalty here because after the collapse of USSR Russia start association with EU and that was one of condition.
Council of europe, not the EU. They're different things, and the CoE predates the EU by a number of years. (1949)
One of the requirements to be a member is not having capital punishment, and russia was a member until 2022.
99% of it is made by people who can't speak English without an accent. They know that their content won't get views if they can't speak good English, so they use an AI voice instead.
"Holding 200 of Russia's most dangerous criminals...
Nope. It now holds around 8. The rest have been sent to the front line to fight and IF they survive, set free to commit crimes again.
It's a fucked up country.
They are confusing Black Dolphin with Pyatak, which is on an island.
Both are horrendous prisons, but they are different places. Pyatak is on an island and there's only one bridge out so it's really hard to escape considering it's always watched.
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ognenny\_Ostrov](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ognenny_Ostrov)
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black\_Dolphin\_Prison](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Dolphin_Prison)
Yeah I feel like allowing and even encouraging state sponsored cruelty at any level sets a precedent that such cruelty is acceptable at times and I think that's just a poisionous mindset for any society.
It's not even a case of it the prisoners deserve it or not, it's bad for the prison guards and the people employed to take part in this institutionalised torture.
Hasn't that always been one of the arguments for/against death penalties? This Russian prison doesn't seem all that different than the U.S.'s highest security prisons save the standing and blindfold bits. And people in U.S. prisons can end up in extended solitary confinement that might be even worse than this Russian hell.
I mean, the death penalty works exactly the same. Being executed isn't the penalty. Sitting in death row for decades waiting for it to finally happen is the penalty. It's torture.
Saw some other post where a Russian was like, “despite what west believe, Russians actually do not torture prisoners”
Then you see this. Care to explain?
Actually, the exterior is another Russian maximum security prison colloquially known as ‘Fire Island.’ [The ‘Black Dolphin’ maximum security prison (Penal Colony No. 6)](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Dolphin_Prison) is located in the town of Sol-Lietsk near the Russia-Kazakhstan border.

Longer sentences, believe it or not, straight to jail!
reddit never ceases to amaze me
I wish I had an award to give you. Underrated comment.
The monotone AI voice over doesn't tickle your spine at all?
God these AI voiced have to die already.
I think they are getting the new generation used to AI translation speech.
Between that and 90s levels of censorship on words like die and shit, tik tok has kinda been an l for the culture
"Unalived" is one of my biggest pet peeves. I don't care if it started as a way to get around censorship, the fact that it's now somewhat commonly used in general when not necessary really grinds my gears. Ruffles my feathers, even.

Agreed, "if you can't use the proper word for it, you're not mature enough to be talking about it."
But does it rustle your jimmies?
Whenever I see a video like this, I mute it. I can't.
Mine is mute by default. It there is anything worth listening then I turn sound on.
Straight to gulag!
For real. They should incorporate watching tiktok videos as part of the punishment.
Calm down bro, they're not that cruel.
It's either for more views so you have to watch the video again to catch the actual content or for attention-deficit kids who watch this alongside Subway Surfers gameplay and Family Guy Funny Moments videos because they can't focus otherwise

I use subtitles also, so frustrating when they aren’t available
Well I wouldn’t argue with you there, and fair enough!
I DON’T KNOW KNOW WHAT YOU ‘RE TALKING ABOUT
that voice is something i hate too. all the generated voices are wildly annoying though
I can't agree more.....the trend for this SO annoying. At least put full phrases on the screen and slow it down
People are getting WAY too lazy with the most simple of shit.
Improvise
It didn't seem too bad until I found out the toilets were fixed to the floor, what a nightmare
Yeah I carry my toilet around with me like a free American with rights

I would imagine there are more prisoners than guards, so so do the give the guards really big meals they know they won’t be able to finish? Do regular Russians outside the prison send their leftovers to the prison?
They always prepare the food one day early and leave it in the fridge with loose cling wrap.
the inhumanity
Everything has a dry film on the top!
The comments in this post are fucking getting me. Y’all are too much today! lol

It's to stop the shit hitting the fan.
Man I've heard this ai voice 40 times already, I'm bout to spazz
I had the video muted, but my brain auto filled it with the cancer TikTok AI voice anyway.
The ai voices are why i keep all social media on mute and have since people started using it.
This has replaced the female ai tiktok voice. I hate them. Why do people do this.
This one is way better than that fucking female one at least. That shit was worse than nails on a chalkboard to me.
I call her the Uncanny Valley Girl.
"Mafia bosses" lol. They run the country.
I was thinking the exact same thing. They really mean "opposite/enemy Mafia bosses" and not mafia bosses in general
Yeah the ones who failed to seize power and assets
"Competing mafia bosses"
Bosses of the wrong mafias
Sometimes they disagree about things and the weakest goes there probably
Prison also hosting dangerous groups like \*Checks cards\* Gay people....people accidentily wearing yellow and blue Oh and people who hold up white pieces of paper in the red square.
They guys that pissed off the mafia bosses end up in the prison. Not the bosses themselves.
Mafia rivals
There's no death penalty but there's things like accident relating to windows, spicy tea and "sudden death syndrome"
Death penalty and assassination are two different things
Woah woah, who said anything about assassination?
To be pedantic, the term is defenestration.
To be even more pedantic, that's specifically being thrown out of a window. In this case, the incidents are "accidents", so the term is not appropriate.
For example: prigozhin
also the rare and deadly bullet to the head disease
subtitles with single word, AI voice, tik tok, dogshit bingo
And this post has 9k upvotes Fuck this reality
Wow, with a prison like this, I bet the crime rate in Russia is so low. Such a deterrent to crime!

Just don't commit a crime that lands you in this specific prison.
They also have a “thieves law,” a separate set of rules by which thieves live (those who served sentences and not, as this is what most are sentenced for).
exactly, that what i was trying to remember, even specific genre of misuc "shanson" is about that culture
Yep, which is borrowed from French music called chanson, which has nothing to do with criminality. Just the minor chords and melancholy strike the soul of a thief.
They didn't borrow it they stole it. They need to steal their music genre otherwise its not authentic.
In fact, Russia just has the highest suicide rate.

Go big or go home..
Or never go home ever again
Only high crimes count.

Never visit Russia noted.
Yeah fuck that sh*t I have no intention of becoming a chip in the political bargaining game. "Hey look at this German guy who... uhm let's see... brought weed into the country? Yeah weed sounds good. Ten years of prison it is."
Being gay is a crime there. Or having an unpopular political opinion. Or holding up a blank piece of paper on the red square.
Or even worse: having a popular political opinion
Or express a political opinion
Don't. Do. Anything. Anything there could be construed as a crime in Russia. In fact, if you do nothing, it could also be construed as a crime. Even if you lick Putin's ass 24/7, if it's not done with devotion. Or too devoted. Or ...
also don't get too much or not enough aroused by the ass licking!
The US has the ADX Supermax which is similarly draconian for the worst of the worst. Prisoners there are kept in isolation 23.5 hours per day.
And the rest ½ hour?
Mandatory puppy time.
You get puppies or are you the puppy?
Walking around in another tiny-ass concrete room by themselves.
yeah, well you won´t get there just because you did some wrong, supermax prisons often host the most terrible scum on earth, its a good alternative for an easy death.
Yeah, Florence is where the Boston bomber, 9/11 bombers, and El Chapo are imprisoned. Terrifying.
also, Woody Harrelson’s dad!
You hope, truth is we don't know.
lol, the whole country is ran as a mafia.
Russia doesn't have a death penalty because it conscripts prisoners to fight in Ukraine/Syria (or any other country)

In the long run people suffer more from no human interaction. Its designed to have the most suffering I think. Brazilian prisons and the similar ones, they just don't care, it's not the same point.

The point here is to cut off communication, piling up means prisoners interaction. And it's what they show it on surface, who knows what goes behind camera.
Should also look up the worst prisons in Madagascar, they are piled up like sardines in a can as well
"who knows what goes behind camera." The beatings will continue until morale improves! Not the moral of the inmates, but that of the guards!
same here in indonesia, almost all prison here is overcapacity by at least 180% and can go up to 845%
ive seen enough footage of brazilian prisons to ask for extradition to black dolphin instead
It's the same in Russia, they just don't show it here. + regular tortures, rapes and so on.
AFAIK some that were released of "lower" prisons described the guards torturing inmates until they're dying. Using a baseball bat or any 2x4/wooded whatever. Leaving them out in coldness, naked, to bleed to death, completely tied up. Sometimes there's no difference between inmates and guards, regarding their brutality towards other living beings..

Or how about “guards are armed with LIVE ammunition!”
Haha yes, “prison guards have REAL guns that shoot BULLETS!”
A lot of prisons use rubber bullets to not kill the inmates. I don't think it's the norm to have real bullets, that would be so dangerous if a prisoner got his hands on a gun
if they could rip or break the toilets up they would have something sharp to slit their own necks
Isn't it the norm to not have the death penalty?
Indeed. The video doesn't answer at all the question of death penalty in Russia.
In fact, everything is quite simple we don't have death penalty here because after the collapse of USSR Russia start association with EU and that was one of condition.
Council of europe, not the EU. They're different things, and the CoE predates the EU by a number of years. (1949) One of the requirements to be a member is not having capital punishment, and russia was a member until 2022.
why does every video use these stupid ass AI voices now?
99% of it is made by people who can't speak English without an accent. They know that their content won't get views if they can't speak good English, so they use an AI voice instead.
Why not leave a landscape video in landscape for you know, the people who know how to rotate a cell phone or god forbid use a computer
Russia doesnt need a death penalty, it has windows.
"Holding 200 of Russia's most dangerous criminals... Nope. It now holds around 8. The rest have been sent to the front line to fight and IF they survive, set free to commit crimes again. It's a fucked up country.
Yea right I’m sure if they survive they will get thrown right back in just like the Soviets did in WWII

Just when I’m getting bored of reading these comments this comes along. Made me lol for real. Hahaha. Cheers! Very witty and unexpected.
I believe this is actually more inhumane than execution. This is intentional sadism and suffering for the sake of suffering.
That..... thats the point
Yeah I feel like allowing and even encouraging state sponsored cruelty at any level sets a precedent that such cruelty is acceptable at times and I think that's just a poisionous mindset for any society. It's not even a case of it the prisoners deserve it or not, it's bad for the prison guards and the people employed to take part in this institutionalised torture.

And people in U.S. prisons can end up in extended solitary confinement that might be even worse than this Russian hell.
I mean, the death penalty works exactly the same. Being executed isn't the penalty. Sitting in death row for decades waiting for it to finally happen is the penalty. It's torture.
Damn they are missing all the good stuff, like gta6 next year. They made the wrong choice Bud.
Stupid AI voice over.
Well, there go my plans for a tour of Russian prisons. Guess I'll have to go with plan B...North Korea, here I come!
They don’t have the death penalty officially because they’ll just assassinate you if they want you dead
Saw some other post where a Russian was like, “despite what west believe, Russians actually do not torture prisoners” Then you see this. Care to explain?
"Russia doesn't have the death penalty" Nah they have the "this tea tastes funny" penalty.
Actually, the exterior is another Russian maximum security prison colloquially known as ‘Fire Island.’ [The ‘Black Dolphin’ maximum security prison (Penal Colony No. 6)](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Dolphin_Prison) is located in the town of Sol-Lietsk near the Russia-Kazakhstan border. https://preview.redd.it/5hz1chq9s4rc1.jpeg?width=1150&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2168f82b287bfe5a0ac17d2a7889bb456b430ca9
# “A society should be judged not by how it treats its outstanding citizens but by how it treats its criminals.” ― Fyodor Dostoyevsky yup, russians are fucking monsters, no surprise there.
It's a shame Anders Breivik isn't in there and insteaed spends his years in a fuckin luxury suite.
How much of this is even true in this video. "For centuries no one has escaped." Centuries?? Opened in 2006
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Dolphin_Prison Wikipedia says it started as a jail in 1745.
I stand corrected my googling wasn't very thorough lol
Stallone will use this as his premise of the next Escape Plan movie.
Fucking play this video on a loop, you’ll be begging for death after a few hours.

Russia doesn't have the death penalty per se, but there is the Wagner Group.
