Behind bars in Russia is no fun - in our Documentary about Russia's toughest prison we show why! Terrorists, gunmen and mafia bosses are serving their life sentences in the Russian penal camp "Vologodski Pjatak". The fortress on the island of Ognenny was built as a monastery in the 16th century. Later the "Fire Island" was converted into a gulag for enemies of the state after the October Revolution of 1917. Since 1994 it is a maximum security prison for serious criminals. Christoph Wanner is the first western TV reporter to manage to shoot behind the prison walls on the island of the damned.

    Aint no gangs running this prison. Period. This is how it should be.

    The officer is showing around like he is in mtv cribs

    That Prison Governor seems like the perfect kind of person for that position.

    The guy who killed that woman by putting his hands up her privates and pulling out her internals is one of the worst things I've heard. And instead of taking responsibility, he blames his sick mind on "Spice"! The only thing it did was amplify his savagery.
  • Nobody who gets a life sentence in Russia has ever gotten out. THAT is what a REAL life sentence is!

    In America: You do the time. In Russia: Time does you.

    The guy that disemboweled his girlfriend shouldn't ever be considered for release. That is especially heinous and disturbing.
  • That one dude was spot on when he said he would much rather face the firing squad than do life in that hell hole.
  • @eliz_scubavn
    I notice that when the guards tell the prisoners to do something, they do it almost immediately. They actually seem genuinely scared of the guards.

    “I love my life, and I don’t want to lose it” I’m sure your victim didn’t want to either.

    Tbh this prison looks extremely clean, organized, well equipped with an elaborate medical staff, and even respects the prisoners rights to privacy when showering "cameras in bathrooms are against the law, and we even respect that here, in prison". I'm actually really impressed because, if you compare this with the Supermax in Colorado, this prison looks far more orderly and comparably less scary, imo. And yet the narrator constantly says "inhumane this, inhumane that". I'm just not seeing it, in comparison with the worst prisons here in America anyway.

    Here in the U.S people make too many excuses for Dangerous criminals . I have gotten sick of it
  • @manganvbg90
    Being a prison guard living in that village would be like a prison sentence in itself
  • @JazF30
    The deputy looks like a man who does not tolerate any nonsense from anyone
  • @syx3s
    for a prison that deals with people with this level of offence it's amazingly orderly and respectful of human dignity. the worst thing would be remembering what you did and knowing that you're never going to leave.
  • The cells actually don't look too bad. Very well maintained. The prisoners are well disciplined. Doesn't look like anyone would mess with those guards.

    A wise man once said,......"I've never been to prison,...I was to busy working to support my family". Dobre noche. Ceskoslovenska.
