I paused the video and just literally looked at Lenin’s body while thinking “That’s literally Lenin right there. Sure not entirely as he once was but still. That’s the man who changed history sitting right in front of my eyes who died like 100 years ago.” Regardless of politics, that’s just fascinating.
İ did the same thing after 1.3years
I am fascinated by the same thought man
@ yeah well progress is exponential for example more progress happened in the 1900s than the 1800s and 1700s combined
I visited the mausoleum just today 😁
regardless of cruelty*,yea thats really fascinating

He's been sleeping for a century
@@charbelnakad7668 hey dude starting revolutions and overthrowing a tsar can be tiring work.
I’m awake. They just made a wax version and put it there
Sourabh Ghosh are we sure about that
He will wake up again to save them when the usa 🇺🇸 invades Russia
Or they could send him on a world tour and make the film "weekend at Vladimir's".
B. Hagedash
Something like that but more respectful would actually be kind of nice
He have Vladimir Putin for that
he should have 2 friends to use him as bait
Yes, and I would like to volunteer to be a guard to protect Lenin’s body from those capitalist pigs.
Fun fact, his body is decomposing, but his skin is so well preserved that hes basically rotting from the inside. In other words, his organs and bones are returning to dust but his skin is not.
or you should say its already decomposed
@@ksg7882 well eventually his skin will return to dust so yes he is decomposing
Wait they said they sometimes used plastic instead
There is a possibility that all his organs and others would decompose inside a plastic shell of his skin
All his skin is gone, they rotted away, the only thing left of his skin is plastic. But yes, he’s rotting from inside

Lenin is a divisive figure, some think he was a tyrant and a dictator, others thing he was a champion of women's and workers rights.
One thing no one can deny is that he's one of the world's most important historical figures
Rather like Hitler and Stalin. But more popular amongst the ill educated.
Daniel Tracey "important" lol. Yeah. He taught the world that communism doesn't work.
The card Tosser No he taught the world that communism works in the earlier stages as it erases social inequalities and allows the country to start again. But also showed us that communism doesn't work in the long term as humans like us want to be competitive.

Lenin built the foundation for Russia to become a superpower within just 2 decades, sure he was harsh sometimes, but he had to be to keep the country from falling apart or going back into the bloody civil war that had only recently ended and this proved wise as Russia needed as much time as it could get to build up as they had to defend themselves from the Nazis.

So much capitalism here
A poem by Bertolet Berescht German poet🔹
They say
When Lenin passed away🔹
A soldier guard from his mausoleum🔹
Told to his friends🔹
That I did not want to believe his demise🔹
So one night
Slowly and silently🔹
I walked next to his body🔹
And loudly screamed in his ears , saying🔹
"Lenin ! exploiters are coming"🔹
Lenin didn't wake up🔹
And it was only then I realized🔹 Lenin has demised🔹
Berthold Brecht was a Communist worm whose claim to fame is a musical "The Three Penny Opera" (Dreigroschen Opera) with it's best known song Mack The Knife (Mackie Messer). A German Jew, Brecht was given asylum from the Nazis by the United States. He chose America over the Soviet Union that also offered asylum. As soon as he got to the U.S. Brecht began agitating to turn America into a Communist dictatorship, the same kind of B.S. he ran for his life to escape from. Go figure.
Incredible how Lenin has been preserved for so long

It’s odd but this isn’t the first time his body has moved
He's been asleep for quite a while.

Every ruler of every country throughout history exhibits one constant characteristic: they think so highly of themselves and so little over the mass populace, that they insist upon being treated better than the average peasant they rule over. The oligarch Putin is filthy rich, for all the good that'll do him. Oligarchs infest every culture.

To be honest, nobody cares what you think about the Soviet Union or the communism itself. That's not the point.
Why can't we all just appreciate the patriotism of Russia and the love that people got for their history? The way they conserved Lenin's body for one hundred years it's a completely work of art. All about Lenin, Stalin... The proud and respect for those men it's not about the Revolution or something, but the history they had bring to their motherland.
I wish it was like that in my country. Everyone here is so ashamed of their old leaders that they only want to cover it, and so I do.
True...
Basically Lenin is now like a tomato from the store. He’s a normal tomato but has been artificially modified and stuck in a glorified fridge.
yes, that usually happens in capitalism
Lenin: *Wakes up* wow that was a slumber, right back to wo....*see's theres no hammer and sickel* STAAAALLLINNN!!!!
How can they call him a ghost or a beast because of Stalin's actions?
Lenin: Bury me alongside my mother.
Everybody: How about no?
My country has such a great history.

Gorbachev:"Shook hands with both Ronalds.. Reagan and Mcdonalds No doubt!"

It’s just so insane that he’s been sitting there for over a hundred years and it looks like he’s sleeping, *this is cult like I swear*
It's kinda cool tbh. It would be cool (but also weird) if other people were also preserved like this
Russos isso crazy
@@TusharSundarka no it's not normal
@@LuizHenrique-mg1mw Мы не сумасшедшие. Ленин просто давно стал настоящим символом прошлого России, с которым многие саму Россию и ассоциируют. И просто так взять, похоронить его, и снести мавзолей никто не сможет. Мавзолей принимает сотни тысяч человек в год. А сколько он принял человек за все время своего существования, представляешь? Ну и к тому же это своеобразный памятник истории и культуры России :)
We're not crazy. Lenin just long ago became a real symbol of the past of Russia, with which many associate Russia itself. And just like that, no one can take it, bury it, and demolish the mausoleum. The mausoleum receives hundreds of thousands of people a year. And how much did a person take in all the time of his existence, can you imagine? And besides, it is a kind of monument to the history and culture of Russia :)
Plot twist: Lenin is only in a coma from his strokes and he’ll wake up in a few years.
This man taught us how to rise up against oppressive rich people. He is a legend.

He also taught us that even people like him cannot be trusted. Such power is too much for a man to handle
Garib Utubr What do you mean mate? Lenin learnt from his mistakes and was an overall good man until he died.
He would be disappointed to see what the mighty and honorable Soviet Union has become today.
Good or Evil, Lenin had changed the timeline of the 20th century forever.
Lenin statue be like : *hhmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm*
Lenin will wake up just wait.
No that’s cool man. I don’t want him to wake up. He would be like 150 years old. You don’t need Lenin to start a revolution. Okay
To paraphrase Lu Xun, the BBC is like a fly whizzing and buzzing around the dead body of a warrior.
No amount of sneering from you can diminish Lenin's greatness.

"Now who did I put in charge of giving people jobs?"

Lenin is Sleeping Beauty waiting for Prince Putin to kiss him.
He has so much compassion in his eyes.
The guy literally got glad when he heard that people were starving because that was the only way they would rise up against the Tsar. He often referred to the common people as stupid animals who needed to suffer to see what must be done and once he got power he became much more tyrannical and trigger-happy than the Tsar. What "compassion" are you talking about?

As an admirer, I would personally love to visit his mausoleum, but I believe it would be against his final wishes to be buried. Ultimately, I take no definitive stance on whether or not he should remain in the mausoleum.
Lenin deserves all this praise. He was a legendary figure who improved the lives of millions 🌟
Is it true that the embalmer who preserved him died before passing on full knowledge to his apprentice? Because of that, less than 23% of the body is actually Lenin today?
