The Guy Who Touched Russia. Literally.

Such a cool video...thought you guys on Pinterest might enjoy this little bit by Cody White:


My name’s Cody White and I have always dreamed of visiting Russia. Setting foot in the country, however, was not enough: I wanted to experience Russia in a different way. So, I decided to set out to Moscow and… touch Russia.

From borsch to babushkas, White poked Russian people, places and things–and recorded it all.

The comedic video was a stunt by Russia Beyond the Headlines (RBTH), a branch of Russian state-owned newspaper Rossiyskaya Gazeta. RBTH recently released an iPad app that makes selected stories, photos and videos of modern Russia accessible to a larger, more modern audience.
