We are constantly lied to about Russia over here. From small lies to huge lies. I am very glad to see you spreading the truth, in your way. Russia is one of the last nations of traditional values left in Europe. You're awesome brother!
People from Denmark come to Russia with only one gaol - create fake channels and tell fake stories about living in Russia. That’s Denmark. Stop deceiving people.
Wow! I have heard Scott Ritter`s opinion, after his travel there, and Jeff`s description matches 100% and this Wild Siberia Channel, just moved there, to a little town called Sludanka on the shores of lake Baikal, same stories. Thank you, Jeff.
I totally agree. I was born in England but as an adult I never felt settled there and I always wanted to leave. I left when I was 28 years old and 20 years later I'm still living outside the UK. I'll never go back.
These kind of videos are priceless. So much condensed experience for 19 minutes. Especially in times of very dark clouded western propaganda, warmongoring and hatered. The thing Jeff said about someone reminding him how to dress up his daughter is something that very much describes main difference between west and slavic eastern Europe. Jeff hit the spot. Coming from sociologyst living in the EU. Westerners dont care about each other, not even their own family members let alone someone on the street. They lost social bond, and it had gotten bad. Cheers to Jeff, mey you live long and happy life !
@@zarni000 its not that simple...i wish it was...its much deeper... its part of culture that spans thousands of years... See mentality of a nation doas not change over night.

Jeff, Russian soul was formed by Christian Orthodoxy. This is the key essence, I can tell you after dozens of travelings, meeting thousands of people. Glad your mother got well, many greetings from Serbia my brother!
I loved in the USA for a while and when I came the first time I was liberal but the states made me a "vatnik". Only in Russia I feel that the God is not just watching but holding me by shoulder.

The story about icon is heartwarming. But i have to note, that the fact Jeff's mother became her usual self for some time, is a state called "Terminal lucidity". It happens to people with dementia and is a singh that they are going to pass away soon. Sometimes it lasts a few days, some times few weeks, a person starts to act normal, jokes, remembers everything, turns to former self but it always ends up in leaving this world. At least it's a merciful way to say your goodbyes.
may be it is truth, but the 3 days or 3 weeks (and I heard just about few days in most of cases) - what does affect to such difference? I can't state that it was 100% because of the saint christ, but who knows? Miracles happens. And Jeff has been blessed to be near his mother in her full consiosness so long time. Much more than it is happening with most of other.
Благослови вас Бог! Спасибо за то, что прикладываете столько усилий для развития спорта, помощи людям и детям. Надеюсь, что вы и ваша дочь будите счастливы в нашей стране.
Great man with a sound mind, God Bless you, Jeff. I imagine people call you all sorts of names for your choice but I respect people that "go and get it" .

The USA might provide your financial needs, but you will STARVE here mentally and emotionally. I plan to move back to Russia so my children have a chance to experience true freedom, friendship and brotherhood.
What an amazing story, so happy for you, brother! Did you know that as per ancient slavic tradition described in our book "ВЕДЫ", every boy was supposed to leave his home place and go travel to foreign lands in search of wisdom and true self? Some returned and created families, but many didn't and had families elsewhere. The long history of humanity has distributed Russian souls all over the planet. I'm a Russian who has left the USSR at 21 and landed in the States with $40 in my pocket. After 20 + years of finding some wisdom and some of the self in the US, out of all places, I've ended up in Madagascar..., go figure ... I'm grateful to you for sharing this story and being such a valuable addition to my homeland!

Being in such great physical shape after retiring from a prominent athletic career is nothing short of remarkable. I guess teaching and training the (Russian) youth gives a great sense of purpose.
I am admiring this guy. He fought so many times and kept sharp and smart and more of that he kind , greatful and humble . I wish all the best to that kind of people
The best way I can describe Russia is this. I lived in Canada 20 years. In Canada, strangers have to act nice and pretend to be interested in your life. It's how everyone is forced to be since childhood. Political correctness and being "kind". Yet, you feel loneliness there. Nobody is actually genuine. In Russia, people may be colder, but you somehow feel closer to them. They don't put on a mask, they show how they feel. If they are in a great mood, they will spread it. If they have a bad day, they will not hesitate to show it. But at least then you feel like you know them. You can relate. In Canada everything was fake to the point you feel numb. And you don't know why you are sad.
Same with in the US. Constant fake, "customer service" smile everywhere you step. I even had an American coworker that laughed at almost every other little thing I would say that wasn't funny, and smiled nearly non stop. It was just outright strange.
Because Russia IS a great nation despite what your democratic propaganda machine tries to tell you. They are great people with similar interests and they love life and the world as much as any human being would. Russia is not the evil in this world. American Politicians are. Along with Israel.
Same with China. Our government have done nothing but brainwash us into thinking how better we are and how better we have it than them.. Too bad it ain't fucking true. Democracy was a mistake.
Thank you Jeff for your position and what you do. All these guys who live in small town and poor regions appreciate you. God bless you man and good health.
Haha I knew 10 years ago that Jeff would eventually move to Russia, as it is right now Russia is far better than any western country. More justice, more dignity, more freedom and more humanism. Every country has its own problems so does Russia, its about choosing whats best for your self. I lived in Sweden for 25 years and would trade Swedish passport for Russian any time. On the surface Sweden looks great but spend 25 years there and soon enough you will notice what a cesspool of a country it really is, same as rest of western countries. Corona period was the last drop for me, the way those people behaved and how they showed their real face it was impossible for me to stay there, now i see them as enemies tbh. I loved the first 10 years there but it changed a lot. Was actually thinking of leaving for Russia but i am too tied up (Emotionally) with my fatherland (Montenegro) so ill be here until the end of days and whatever end that awaits me.
Our country, Russia, is a place where EVERYONE can find fulfillment, friendship, love, and their own cultural identity. This is not a "melting pot"; no! our deep idea is a "symphony orchestra", where every instrument, every voice is unique and very important for the overall sound, for HARMONY.
Last year I have watched quite a few expatriates who moved in Russia and decided to stay here. That is making me proud of who we are. Despite all this hate and willingness to disconnect us from world community we still remaining the same. We never hate people back. We love everyone disregarding nation, religion, skin color (at list majority of us). Thanks very much Mr, Jeff Monson!!! People from all over the world please don’t hate us. We didn’t deserve this. Let’s stay together and fight “progressive” moral standards, respect each other being a good friends.
Russia and Russians have morals, standards, pride community, and they have it in spades. Things America and Americans haven’t had in a long, long, long time and from observation it’s gonna be an even longer time before they even come close to having any of those things ever again. God bless Russia and the Russian people.
Just watched your video! I am Russian! But I live here for a very long time ! I really appreciate your talk and excepting Russian culture and especially Russian soul! I watched all your fights as well! I coached a few UFC fighters as well! Sport is my life since 70s. I can see that you really love sport & I thank you for it! World of sport needs people like you ! Just came back from Kazan and started to think about living there again ( back and forth of course)! Stay strong buddy! Your story about your mom put tears in my eyes!
I am an Australian giving extremely serious thought and research into moving to Russia. Russia is welcoming, forward looking, hard working, civil. Everything Australia is currently in the process of turning it's back on. Frankly I would rather die on my feet in Russia than live on my knees in Australia.
Can’t disagree with Jeff. I love America, i really do. I just dont like what i see in its future. I have visited many places too. And Thailand , Australia, places in Scandinavia and Sardinia call to me. Amazing places. BUT for now, Im staying put , hoping for the best. If we continue to go belly up, I might have to fly. I dont have children and very little of my family is left.
As the Serbian man I live in Russia for five years and Russia stay in my heart forever , right now, living and working in New York , but Russia totally different world and totally different people, for my taste best people !
Hi Jeffrey, I'm Russian, I live in Australia, I haven't been to Russia for almost 20 years. During your story, I couldn’t hold back my tears. In the Western world, there is such a lack of mercy and soul, that’s why we Russians here are considered not normal. All the best to you and your business.
A beautiful story that touched me. You are a kind-hearted person and a spiritual recipient, something to be proud of. Your soul has found home and not just any home but the best of them all - great Russia❤️ I envy you.
Got bless you Jeff. I know what you've felt in your loss in the past, I know it b'coz I had walked through almost same loss and same situation. As Russian, I think that present of crafted icon from unknown guy was not the thing that did those 6 weeks. I'm 100% sure it was you, who returned to home and made her remember and restore to better state, since she was understanding the point she's got to say Good Bye, and got to do it as right as she can. & I believe she elevated to better world. From your story I think no need to tell you about honest deep feelings ppl can share. Keep that icon and let it be a piece of memory that bringing a little light in your way. Long live & great happiness to you, Jeff.
I understand what he said about where you were born doesn't mean that is where you're supposed to be. I have always felt out of place here in the US. Ever since I was a kid, I was always drawn to Russian and its people. I feel like they are my people. The older I get, the less I identify with my fellow Americans.
Im glad you have your own opinion and im happy you could understand the russian mind. I hope they dont cancell you. This is the true freedom that we as humans need to have. I hope they dont delete this video because they have lots of hate for Russia. Respect
A blessing from our Lord through our blessed Mother. Fellow Catholic wishing the best for the Orthodox people of Russia, may we be united one day and God bless Mr. Monson.
В России любой приехавший через год или два становится СВОИМ . Если он принимает и понимает всё вокруг, то он гармонично вливается в это дружелюбное общество. Вот почему Россия такая огромная!😊

Because Russia IS a great nation despite what your democratic propaganda machine tries to tell you. They are great people with similar interests and they love life and the world as much as any human being would. Russia is not the evil in this world. American Politicians are. Along with Israel.
you don't no sh.... abot russia
@sashaalex5476 Prove how well indoctrinated you are buddy. Go right on ahead. Prove my point 😂
Same with China. Our government have done nothing but brainwash us into thinking how better we are and how better we have it than them.. Too bad it ain't fucking true. Democracy was a mistake.
Stalin helped create Israel. Get your head out of dugins ass for a minute

USSR is not Russia! 🤭🤣
Because Russia is for People ❤
Not for jerks
In Russia we say, there is no alien children. like every child could be yours, everyone must care.
СССР доминировал в спорте благодаря выборке из бесплатных секций, всегда находились те, кто способен.
Thank you Jeff for your position and what you do. All these guys who live in small town and poor regions appreciate you. God bless you man and good health.
Haha I knew 10 years ago that Jeff would eventually move to Russia, as it is right now Russia is far better than any western country. More justice, more dignity, more freedom and more humanism. Every country has its own problems so does Russia, its about choosing whats best for your self. I lived in Sweden for 25 years and would trade Swedish passport for Russian any time. On the surface Sweden looks great but spend 25 years there and soon enough you will notice what a cesspool of a country it really is, same as rest of western countries. Corona period was the last drop for me, the way those people behaved and how they showed their real face it was impossible for me to stay there, now i see them as enemies tbh. I loved the first 10 years there but it changed a lot. Was actually thinking of leaving for Russia but i am too tied up (Emotionally) with my fatherland (Montenegro) so ill be here until the end of days and whatever end that awaits me.
Zašto si onda odlazio iz Crne Gore? Ponos i čast bi trebali biti jači od svakog novca, pogotovo za jednog Crnogorca.

Our country, Russia, is a place where EVERYONE can find fulfillment, friendship, love, and their own cultural identity. This is not a "melting pot"; no! our deep idea is a "symphony orchestra", where every instrument, every voice is unique and very important for the overall sound, for HARMONY.
Спасибо Джефф.thank u Jeff
Last year I have watched quite a few expatriates who moved in Russia and decided to stay here. That is making me proud of who we are. Despite all this hate and willingness to disconnect us from world community we still remaining the same. We never hate people back. We love everyone disregarding nation, religion, skin color (at list majority of us).
Thanks very much Mr, Jeff Monson!!!
People from all over the world please don’t hate us. We didn’t deserve this. Let’s stay together and fight “progressive” moral standards, respect each other being a good friends.
Fight your own dictator first. Putin is the antichrist.
Russia and Russians have morals, standards, pride community, and they have it in spades.
Things America and Americans haven’t had in a long, long, long time and from observation it’s gonna be an even longer time before they even come close to having any of those things ever again. God bless Russia and the Russian people.
Morals? Stop Russian aggression!
I met him in the Hospital this summer , never saw a man like this , living machine !
Just watched your video! I am Russian! But I live here for a very long time ! I really appreciate your talk and excepting Russian culture and especially Russian soul! I watched all your fights as well! I coached a few UFC fighters as well! Sport is my life since 70s. I can see that you really love sport & I thank you for it! World of sport needs people like you ! Just came back from Kazan and started to think about living there again ( back and forth of course)!
Stay strong buddy! Your story about your mom put tears in my eyes!
I couldn't help myself. Tears just flow freely, I have not been back to Russia for a long time.
Great decision! God bless you. God bless Russia. Russia gets into your heart and soul.
I am an Australian giving extremely serious thought and research into moving to Russia. Russia is welcoming, forward looking, hard working, civil. Everything Australia is currently in the process of turning it's back on. Frankly I would rather die on my feet in Russia than live on my knees in Australia.
Can’t disagree with Jeff. I love America, i really do. I just dont like what i see in its future. I have visited many places too. And Thailand , Australia, places in Scandinavia and Sardinia call to me. Amazing places. BUT for now, Im staying put , hoping for the best. If we continue to go belly up, I might have to fly. I dont have children and very little of my family is left.
Братуха, ты Красава! Любим тебя всей душёй!
As the Serbian man I live in Russia for five years and Russia stay in my heart forever , right now, living and working in New York , but Russia totally different world and totally different people, for my taste best people !
Bro, respect from Siberia ❤❤❤
This ramous man made the right choices. Wishing him to find happiness, love, new friends, and best of luck there ! ❤
Hi Jeffrey, I'm Russian, I live in Australia, I haven't been to Russia for almost 20 years. During your story, I couldn’t hold back my tears. In the Western world, there is such a lack of mercy and soul, that’s why we Russians here are considered not normal. All the best to you and your business.
Tell that to the Ukrainians!
#make Russia small again
You are amazing, Jeff! Keep up the great work that you do!!! It brings tears to my eyes. ❤❤
Мне кажется, он говорит искренне. Спасибо, Джеф, you're welcome
A beautiful story that touched me. You are a kind-hearted person and a spiritual recipient, something to be proud of. Your soul has found home and not just any home but the best of them all - great Russia❤️ I envy you.
Спасибо, Джеф, за такие тёплые слова и за твою человечность. Спасибо твоей маме за то, что воспитала Человека с большой буквы, вечная ей память!
Got bless you Jeff. I know what you've felt in your loss in the past, I know it b'coz I had walked through almost same loss and same situation. As Russian, I think that present of crafted icon from unknown guy was not the thing that did those 6 weeks. I'm 100% sure it was you, who returned to home and made her remember and restore to better state, since she was understanding the point she's got to say Good Bye, and got to do it as right as she can. & I believe she elevated to better world. From your story I think no need to tell you about honest deep feelings ppl can share. Keep that icon and let it be a piece of memory that bringing a little light in your way. Long live & great happiness to you, Jeff.
Welcome, brother
You are now home
Thank You Jeff

May Allah SWT Protect and blesses Russia And Russians with Peace,Tranquility,Safety from the outside world such as America,nato,israhell etc
Wow is this message needed right now as we sit on the brink.
I understand what he said about where you were born doesn't mean that is where you're supposed to be. I have always felt out of place here in the US. Ever since I was a kid, I was always drawn to Russian and its people. I feel like they are my people. The older I get, the less I identify with my fellow Americans.
Hello from Seattle my friend! Immigrant from Ukraine here! God bless you!
Im glad you have your own opinion and im happy you could understand the russian mind. I hope they dont cancell you.
This is the true freedom that we as humans need to have.
I hope they dont delete this video because they have lots of hate for Russia.
Respect
Huge respect to Jeff! Thank you for that you do for our country ❤
Respect to you Mr. Jeff 💪💪💪💪
A blessing from our Lord through our blessed Mother.

Jeff represents the best of humanity, regardless of nationality.
Right on Jeff! I had been there in the 90's as a student diplomat. It seems martial arts there would be great.
The power of GOD and a devotee's blessings 🙌 🙌 🙌
Thank you for helping Donbass Monsoon 🙏 I'm from 🇬🇧 UK, but have family in Lugansk
В России любой приехавший через год или два становится СВОИМ . Если он принимает и понимает всё вокруг, то он гармонично вливается в это дружелюбное общество. Вот почему Россия такая огромная!😊
Once I am capable I am moving there permanently too
one of the few countries that still respect values and traditions
