    I remember a story told by a friend who lived in Alaska as a young boy he was part Eskimo and part white. He once told me a story of how a group of 3 eskimos in the early 50s or so were out fishing in a little boat in the Bearing Strait and it was very foggy and no visibility afar. After some time out of the fog appeared another boat with 4 other men and 2 of them looked Eskimo but they were actually Siberian natives who spoke the same language and were able to communicate with the other Eskimos. Two other men looked white but spoke no English it turned out that they were actually Russian. After a while 3 the eskimos said they were lost and needed to know where they were, so they asked how could they get back home and the other 2 said they couuldnt go back and they had to follow them only to find out they were now in Soviet Russia ( they had accidentally strayed into Soviet waters in the Bearing strait) so for the next year or 2 they had to stay detained until a way was found to return them (albeit indirectly) via working on several ships as fisherman or deck hands for the next 3 years they steamed around the world on tramp steamers until they were finally able to return to Alaska!

    Russian professional traveler Alexander Shparo together with his sons Nikita and Matvey crossed the Bering strait in 1998 during the "Ski bridge" expedition. They had all permits from border guards, helicopter and boat. They realised that all the ice field in the strait is moving so they should go not directly but diagonal. And even after this they faced 500 meters of open water near the Alaskan shore. So technically they didnt cross the strait on foot, they had to use boat.

    @SomeGuyWJM 2 роки тому +9

    Although the video is partially true, you can get even closer to Russia for Alaska by foot as well. In the center of the barrow strait lies the little and big diomede islands. The smaller island, little diomede island has a small town named diomede city with roughly 150 inhabitants according to the 2016 population census. On the other hand the larger of the two big diomede is completely uninhabited, and sometimes has 50-90 inhabitants for weather or military purposes. The larger island also includes the crash site of a Russian b-29 used during engine testing on the island. During the winter months the passage between the two islands freezes over. The passage between these two islands is 2.5 miles wide. So you can indeed walk from USA to Russia is a shorter distance than mentioned in the video.

    The current state of Alaska in the United States of America was a separate province of Russia. America bought it from Russia in 1867 for only 7.2 million dollars. Since then, Alaska has been recognized as the largest state in the United States.

    I have looked into a travel visa for a trip to Russia as a tourist. It's insane!!!. They require 1 year advance notice before your trip starts, 6 months notices on places you wish to see. List the Days you are in what towns, etc. Also if there's a fair happening in a town you heard of while on your travels, but isn't listed in the places to visit on your itinerary, you can kiss that goodbye. In larger cities that you plan on seeing, you have to list the districts interested in visiting. I wonder how the hell Russia has managed to keep a tourist trade going????? That was all from the pre-Ukrainian/Russian war,

    • @InsaneHunter01
      @InsaneHunter01 2 роки тому +6

      @@anaibarangan4908 those are tours who are taken in groups, and meant to stay together. The group operator submits the itinerary for 10 or more people. Those people just pay into the travel group when the trip is advertised. I believe those private travelers are extremely rich, and are granted freedoms. Because the Russian government wanted them no restrictions to spend even more money. I am not wealthy to allow that type privilege. When I travel, I want to freedom to see things my self, and go exploring. You'd be surprised how much more beautiful a country looks when you see things off the beaten path. Also to see the local culture that's not with a group. You tend to notice the little things are may be impressive. Not the bulk media that the government wishes you to see.

      @The Critic The global climate change is inevitable. The human race has sped up global heating since the industrial revolution by 1000 years. With 3rd world countries trying to to catch up to the 1st world countries, they are making the same mistakes that were made during the industrial age. Speeding up the climate change and heating even faster.

    There was a Soviet military guy who defected with his son across the strait. Took a modified canoe, said they were going hunting, got across to the American island.
    There was also a woman who swam between the islands in the 2000s as a post-Cold War project. She made it the 2 miles and change across by swimming, ending in Russia.
    But there was a language problem. She asked for a “babushka” to have when she reached Russia (she meant a special piece of clothing, balenki maybe?) to help her warm up.
    The Russians took her literally and sent a “babushka” (grandmother) who was a nurse.

    Your pointing the tip side of the two peninsula, beside the whole area at the left is call CHUCKCHI ( not Chokotka ) Peninsula connected to the SEWARD Peninsula by Iceberg Snow Before between the Bering Sea and the Arctic Ocean. Remember too that the Bering sea is the sea of the PACIFIC OCEAN, ( not to the Atlantic Ocean, your twisting the Glove Map in fact ALASCA is in the Pacific Ocean then CANADA down to San Francisco, CA. At the other side is the ATLANTIC Ocean down to Washington below already Florida) to then by differences of the level of Water Season that divided the Bering Sea to the Arctic Ocean, the Iceberg melted and open as you showing here 85 km apart and call then as The BERING STRAIT, therefore no more Arctic Ocean cause it mingles already to the Pacific Ocean. That what I see at the Collegiate World Atlas Map
