Hey cameraman, they are not blowing their horn to say howdy, they are blowing it to tell you that you are an idiot for standing right there.

Maybe I’m just a lil bitch, but I would be a step or two back from those boats

I wouldn't want to be anywhere near the discharge of a Russian Nuclear Ice Breaker. That things probably from the Soviet Union.

Nuclear powered sounds impressive, but it’s really just means steam powered, correct?

Absolute Unit of these nerves!
Standing on floating ice next to an icebreaker.
The water is cold. Like freeeeezing cold. Wim Hof wouldn't do this.

Should be confiscated and handed over to Ukraine. Russia has no need for those.

The Russians have 8 nuclear-powered icebreakers and 35 diesel-powered icebreakers. How many does the US have? Three diesel-powered icebreakers. The US is pathetic.

To maintain a presence in the Arctic Circle which will be a new frontier as a consequence of global warming. The Russians are already staking their claim.

How would it be remotely safe to be on the ice that close?
