8/4/2005: Russian gets hammered
 

http://cellar.org/2005/russian.jpg

XoB and the WaPo bring us this crazy one today. This is a pair of Russian paratroopers, and they are doing this to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the founding of the Paratroopers.

It's a good thing his hand's wrapped up. That could sting like the dickens.

dumbshits. oh well, i guess when you can't afford to keep your planes in the air and you've run out of bullets, there is little left to do but to hit each other with hammers.

bet thats going to hurt in the morning...

"Could you crush a man with that?"
"Aye, I could crush you.. like a worm"

More proof that men are weird.

yep, exactly. 'cuz women never do stupid shit. ;)

I wonder what they're planning for the 100th... or will any of them be left?

What do you expect from a group who didn't even have parachutes until 1957?

i can't decide if that guy's trying to swing the hammer really really hard or just laughing really hard and trying to swing a hammer.

From the people who invented Russian Roulette.

Hi gerstle! Welcome to the cellar! I'd bet laughing. Remember that game, "let's have a hitting contest to see who can hit the softest. you go first. *touch*. Ok, my turn, *KAPOW!!!*, Gosh, I guess you win. We're looking at the face of a winner, for sure.

[voiceover]

"We've secretly replaced Boris' stone slab with an ordinary pizza box. Let's watch what happens..."

[/voiceover]

Well, it's not as bad as it looks, I mean, he's got his arms in a securely braced position, and he's using that stone slab to absorb some of the blow and evenly distribute . . .

:cool:

Screw it, I can't do it. DUDE! YOU'RE LETTING THAT GUY HIT YOU WITH A SLEDGEHAMMER! Are you RETARDED? :crazy:

hey, thanks. I've been keeping an eye on iotd for a long time (couple years), figured it was about time to start contributing. I haven't found anything else out there as consistently good and amusing as this stuff is.

I reckon the little blue ball between the hitee's fists is his scrotum.
Last time I did this I had a hangover for three days. :cool:

BTW..... Vodka martini, anyone?

Ahem...can you say Bikini Wax? :thepain:

Hmm. Didn't they woop Hitler's ass back in '40 something. :rattat: Ok they didn't do so well in Afganistan but we're still there after '90 something. :headshake

There'a a joke somewhere about picking an argument with a Para but it escapes me....

It's probably just a toughening up excersice... you know... in case they end up landing on their heads.

Besides, there is just something unatural about jumping out of an airplane that's not on fire.

Every since they brought down the wall, they've been looking for something to do with all those sledgehammers.

How about a Brazilian Wax? (NSFW) And by the way, fucking ouch!

Holy crap! I just read the caption! Wonder how they plan to celebrate in another 25 years? Why didn't they just celebrate by jumping off a building...head first without parachutes into solid concrete? They finally found something that gives them a bigger headache besides the moring after a vodka binge. Ack! Someone stop me!

Ok, but the reason women get bikini waxes is for SEX. SEX. Usually with some non-deserving man, too. That should be reason enough for guys. Women are very self-conscious when it comes to not being Miss Supermodel and feeling they must meet some sort of standard and that is the reason for the ouchy-wax. We do a lot of stuff for you guys. Really! As much as you guys do for us! :heartpump

Is tylenol sold in Russia?

Don't need tylenol, Vodka cures everything.
No, wait, That's Vodka causes everything....like thinking getting hit with a sledgehammer would be a hoot. :lol:

Bri, I just want to go on the record as saying that I would never expect a woman to go through anything like a frigging bikini waxing for me. That shit is crazy.

Don't worry Elspode, they won't. Despite Brianna's speech, all a woman has to do for sex is show up naked...bringing beer is a bonus.
The waxing, fashions, make-up and all the rest, is not for you and me.
No, not us,....IT'S FOR OTHER WOMEN. ;)

i wonder what the noise is all about. i ve seen things like this on tv more often then you guys seen george w. bush
i think breaking bricks with one's head a bit cooler than this
and they do it not to celebrate something but just as a boring routine =)))

Welcome to the Cellar, bumblebee. :)
Television is about moving pictures...you see it and move on.
This IoTD, on the other hand, is a still picture.....so we're still analyzing it. :lol:

Ok, maybe some of that preening stuff is for other women...but we do want our men to be turned-on, too, you know. My perceptions are most likely askew...my last relationship was rather effed up. He made me feel like I just was not good enough (and him, twenty-one years older, short and bald!) He was such a swell guy!

Then bring beer and wings. :love:

Speaking of hammered Russians
 

"This interview on Russian television was conducted to determine if a
recent mine accident had been due to heavy drinking on the site. The
spokesman is denying the allegation."

I don't know if the explanation above is true or not... Anybody know
what's being said?
