If youโ€™re ever injured in an accident, see if you have a case with Morgan & Morgan. You can start your claim in just a click without having to leave your couch: https://www.forthepeople.com/Farrell

This is a compilation featuring a selection of the different cases I’ve looked at that specifically come from Russia, along with a bit of new stuff as well!

    Russian here; although I didn't witness the 90s, there was just too much disarray and chaos here in that time period for anyone to care enough to make a TV program such as Kingdom of Heaven. Plus, I'm pretty sure most people would prefer to keep their grief private

    In ะ‘ะ•ะ—ะะžะ“Nะœ segment you forgot to mention that some, even most of the things are written with wrong letters, wrong word forms or something else. It may seem like a subtle detail, but itโ€™s very important

    Title of the video should of just been; "Analog Horrors of the Russian Internet". 80% of this video is just about fake analog horror…
    I came here to see actual horror, not cheesy and clearly fake arg's..

    13:00 speaking as a russian, "the kingdom of heaven" is certainly fake. On russian internet there was a whole trend with "tv briadcast hijacking" where people would record fake highjackings with something scary on them. It's just one of many, and it just happens ti be one of the good ones lol. I am willing to believe that it might be based on real events in some way, but if such televised necrologues existed, i doubt anyone recorded it. Not everyone even had a cassette player back then, and nobody would record someone's necrologue on that even if they could. So every one such video on the Internet is most likely fake, even if tele necrologues existed.

    If anything like that ever existed, the only place where some footage may be preserved is old studio archives

    Farrell, I feel gaslighted, why do you reuse the Kingdom of heaven segment? It already been in the previous part wor for word. I thought I went crazy for a sec there

    13:25 i'm russian, born in 2003. Based on vibe — tv necrologs might have existed, but surely not looking this way. I would say that shown piece of media is styled after a gravestone, search "ะฝะฐะดะณั€ะพะฑะธะต".
    I've never seen a necrolog on tv, but i believe that some ESPECIALLY rich person could BUY screentime to air something in memory of the loved one. But surely not in this style, surely without hijacking.

    Growing up in a small town in Siberia, I can clearly remember the obituaries that ran on our local TV channel. They were on for quite a long time, from the mid 90s to the mid 00s. The music theme they used was Chi Mai from Le Professionnel. On the black background there was a lit candle, a life-time photo of the deceased (sometimes a lifeless passport photo that would make it even creepier), a headline saying โ€œIn the memory of (namesake)โ€ and a short clichรฉd poem saying how much the relatives grieve over the loss. However, there never were any details on the cause of death, the only kind of information that was present was the full name and age at best. Everything that was on the screen was read along by a plaintive female voice. As the voice was through with reading the poem, Chi Mai would change into a song of choice, some pop song that would somehow insinuate grief and loss. Once an obituary featured a song by Leonid Agutin ( a popular Russian singer in the 90s), quite an upbeat one, but the chorus says something like: โ€œHey driver, grab your steering wheel tighter, donโ€™t make your loved one cryโ€. The guy, who that obituary was dedicated to, most likely died in a car accident. When it was an obituary to someone who died at their late teens – early 20s, the song they chose would often be Lesopovalโ€™s โ€œะ‘ั‹ะป ะฟะฐั†ะฐะฝ ะธ ะฝะตั‚ ะฟะฐั†ะฐะฝะฐยป (can be loosely translated to โ€œthere was a guy and now heโ€™s goneโ€), an absolutely heart wrenching piece of music. Needless to say it was eerie, I remember being left along in the room with the TV on and this obituary thing that started unexpectedly got me panicking and I was too small to change the channel. However, there was an even creepier thing on TV. It was not a particular segment that would be on air at any fixed time, but they would randomly show an unidentified dead body asking everyone who might know who this was to reach out to the police. This really was too much.

    I've actually been into one of the closed cities.
    Well, it's just a city… but with a lot of bomb shelters on every corner x)
    I understand the appeal though

    Hmmm, I can imagine TV obituaries being real, never seen a single one however. Will ask parents. It definitely should be some regional TV channel, not a central one.

    Ahah, VID intro is something else, the whole generation traumatized ๐Ÿ˜‚

    You really had a lot of fun saying ะœะฐะณะฝะธั‚ะพัˆะฐั…ั‚ะธะฝัะบะฐั ะพะฑะปะฐัั‚ัŒ didn't you?
