  • inactive, on 10/11/2007, -10/+93Who said the Russians aren't free? What else can you call it - other than freedom - the ability to be 5ft from the president and toss your political flyers around the room without being Tazed or tackled? My Lord, if that was here, that guy would have been drop-kicked and arrested. Kind of scary when the Russians are more free than we are.
  • scubasteve11, on 10/11/2007, -4/+79I love all the Futurama references.
  • graemee, on 10/11/2007, -5/+63LOL Mr Bean.

    OK DIGG you can do this justice, open photoshop, now!
  • rauz, on 10/11/2007, -5/+39Judging by the quality of these I'm suspecting most russians use Gimp. That's right, I went there.
  • michelspc, on 10/11/2007, -3/+33You know, it's sad but I was thinking the exact same thing. The minute the guy started throwing the papers I was expecting him to get taken down but nothing happened. Wow, the land of the free indeed.

  • Prodigyman, on 10/11/2007, -0/+23Pretty much first response was
    Putin said "Prefect, very good" while the dude was screaming something in German trying to get some support from German audience in the conference room
    "Young man, let me see what you are throwing" referring to papers then said the same thing in Germain to him (WTF he speaks German?)
    Following in German again "You have done what you needed to do, let me finish answering questions, this is democratically done, understand that okay? Sid down please"
    The said that the young men was from Russia and that Putin after the press conference still made time to answer any of his questions
  • HateMoNGeR, on 10/11/2007, -4/+27***** hilarious... in the united states this guy would have been tackled and taken to jail
  • slvrtgr, on 10/11/2007, -0/+19so thats where they got the Oo expression from..
  • Ace75, on 10/11/2007, -1/+19@romistrub - "Can anybody translate Putin's reaction to the crazy paper-thrower?"

    Putin's reaction: (which he spoke in German - in response to the paper-boy's German remark)

    “Young man, give me what you have thrown. Ok? You have done, what you wanted to do. Now leave us in peace. Give me time to answer this. Ok? Understood? Is that democratic? Now sit down!” (translation taken from comments on the original page)

  • EochaidRiata, on 10/11/2007, -0/+12There is no press in Russia any more. This was in Europe.

  • inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+9if it happened in russia, he probably would've been even worse off than in the US
  • cypher543, on 10/11/2007, -0/+9Weird... I wonder what this "Reply" button is for...

  • Bolarg, on 10/11/2007, -0/+6On the video with Putin it sounds like he says something about a "dumb ***** teachers' kid."
  • Felshadow, on 10/11/2007, -2/+8I was going to say, Russians dont know how to treat their memes properly, just adding lazers doesnt count
  • SilverBack101, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5But will he defeat the stardom of that famous fat Chinese kid?
  • pinkSocks, on 10/11/2007, -3/+8I thought a lot of these were mediocre. I think these of Hillary Clinton, however, are hilarious... http://forums.fark.com/cgi/fark/comments.pl?IDLink=2712184
  • JCSaint, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5"(WTF he speaks German?)"

    Yeah, he spied on Germany when he was in the KGB or something. He's completely fluent.
  • lebe0024, on 10/11/2007, -1/+5Yeah, the mr bean one was the funniest.

    This looks more natural than the original :D
  • snojoex, on 10/11/2007, -1/+5dugg just for the hypnotoad reference.
  • kennon, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4Putin speaks pretty good German.

    Maybe it was because he was a KGB agent stationed in Dresden (Germany) from 1985-1990.
  • inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4according to a post on the link, it was in Heiligendamm, which is in Germany, supposedly the guy that is throwing the leaflets said: "Putin ist ein schwein." (Putin is a pig/evil), so that's why he replied in german.
  • themoose, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4Brainslug one was the best.

  • yellowsnowcone, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3Dude, it's not nice to make fun of people because they have a glass eye
  • MadOnionRU, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3That's the power of Digg - I'm from Russia, I spend a lot of time in the Internet and saw about this G8 amusing incident on TV, but learned about this eyes-punched dude here.
  • zcreem, on 10/11/2007, -1/+4So why did he tell him to sit down in German?
  • AWBoy666, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2I'll dig ANYTHING with the hyponotoad in it!
  • lico05, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2Brilliant.

    This is why the internet was invented.
  • zeeky, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2All glory to the hypnotoad.
  • callmejordy265, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2or he "accidentally slipped off his balcony"
  • EuphopiaB, on 10/11/2007, -1/+3Actually it is natural for a person's eyes to not be aligned. If you think about it, if an object is right in front of the left eye and that is where the person is focusing, then the left eye is looking forward and the right will be looking to the left.
  • inactive, on 10/11/2007, -2/+4I, for one, welcome our new overlords of Adobe® Photoshop® software.
  • Misos, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2No, in Russia you will end-up like Alexander Litvinenko.
