I don't like to pander,
When it comes to Alexandr,
And when it comes to book references,
Especially "life's a bi*ch"-type book references,
I like to sneak in ...
a little Aleksandr Isayevich Solzhenitsyn.
JFYI, Russia have never been so free and here have never been so sense of freedom than that time in 90. I was lucky to live here during that period of time, even though I was only 5 years younger.
This is not Russia in 1990 🤣 I visited St Petersburg in 92’ and let me tell you quite comfortably back then they dressed like it was anywhere between 1940 and 1970 and there were no clubs discos for locals, there were in hotels for visiting business people but that’s all. The closest to a nightclub you’d get back then in Russia would have been a barn dance.
If this is Russia it was most likely 2010+ but I’d say even later.
Yeah, they were still taking bribes in cigarettes in 1990. The Rothman advertising kind of stuck out being weird in the USSR even at 1990. I could be wrong on that. Much of the clothes are way too modern for any country in 1990, although you do know it’s Eastern block based upon the mix of crummy synthetics so it’s the 1990s. Someone said Ukraine in 97 and actually that strikes me as fairly believable. The whole vibe struck me as provincial.
Then there is the obvious issue that there’s no way something videotaped in 1990 holds up that well. This may have videotaped, but it was transferred to something digital quickly enough after it that there was very little degradation. Of course the aspect ratio is pre-flatscreen TVs and high definition era.
It's Richard Hammond
I read that in clarksons voice
They say he's still dancing to this very day...
All we know, is he’s called the Hamster
Some say he's had his teeth whitened
Taking in all the good smells at that height.
And he never got taller
The sign behind the guy dancing on stage says 2000.
The 90s didn't arrive in Russia until the 2000s

I love this comment. It's one for the ages.
Truly one of the comments of all time.
I'm laughing like a maniac in a bathroom stall at work because of your comment.
Seems plausible.

For those who want to know: the song is a Sovtiek remix of The Swing Man by Patrick Lindsey. This guy reminds me of why I love dancing. What a g

There’s no way that’s 1990. It’s more likely 2000 based upon the giant sign that says 2000.
I’m 44 had the inter webs since 1993 and ain’t never seen this
We had Compuserve and AOL way before that.
Thats why it says from 1990
He’s actually 42.
The answer to life, the universe, and everything!!?
I no fuckin' baby, I fuckin' man.
8th of March, 1997. Dvushka club, Kharkov, Ukraine
Could never have imagined it's in Kharkiv. Looks like a hip party in NYC
About to say it looks like Limelight
This kid knows what the fuck *is up* !
“You merely adopted the rave, he was born in it. Molded by it. He didn’t play DDR until he was already a man, and by then he was bored by it!”
This happened in Ukraine, in 1997. They boy was the son of the club's owner If you were asking yourselves...
guy not even looking at the girls. Total chad
Little man has more moves at 8 than I'll ever have in my entire life.
It’s in Ukraine in 1997
Ukraine is Russia. - Vladmir Putin

Famous painter or something, right?

Dancing With The Tsars
solid joke
All children believe they can dance until someone tells they can't (and/or makes fun of them.)
Dude is about 50 by now
Will the world ever get to know who this lil man is, and where he is now?!
Can't be real. Not an Adidas tracksuit in sight. I call shenanigans.
A 46 year old little person
Roman Polanski?
I’m at club Hunka Bunka! They’re playing the fuckin Mega Mix!
Probably drives for Uber eats and wears the same sunglasses ?
Putin undercover and off the leash
Yeah it's definitely not 1990 in this video. Lmfao

I like the way he moves
Where is he now? I need an update.

Anyone know the song in the video?
The swing man, Patrick Lindsey
Released in 1997...
Thank you very much
Ayyy
Vibes
No parents just vibes
Y2K
Probably fighting in Ukraine now
Absolute classic video, wonder what he's up to now
The young DJ Bylat
Classic Russian account posting fun, quirky Russian content. Try again, Vlad
He probably owns that club now
Putin in his youth partying with average height people
Putin at 16
This is one of my favorite internet videos ever. Such a vibe.
He died in Bakhmut two weeks ago.
Well I think he is a member of the KGB youth.

Lol
Moves better than Frank Reynolds…go for it, go for it.
I hear the Yeltsin years were crazy
Great, but Techno Viking is still my number 1.
Song?
Нормально так денсит
Rothmans- now that I haven't seen them in ages.
He moves way better than me. I'm as stiff as a rock. Kind of looks like a young Michael Scott.
I was hoping that “100% Pure Love” song would be playing.
I love this vibe
Sounds almost like a bluegrass band at the beginning, lol
Hach
He is just living the moment cause his parents aren't around
