The most nerve-racking job in the world: Being a bodyguard for this man.

"EEEEEEEeeeeeeeehhhhhhhhhh!!!"

Kalinka, kalink... EEEEEEEEEEEHHHHHHEEEEHHHH!!!

My goodness. When he started wailing into the microphone, it brought a tear to my eye. Such a beautiful moment that we should all learn from.

Kakalin.. *EEEEEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH*

The description reminds me that he had several thousand nuclear weapons under his control, but he is only person in the world i would trust with them. He just want to have a good time.

He was part of making the 90s a memorable decade.

This shit had me on the floor, my stomach hurts from laughing. Boris was a travesty. He reminds me of life in the barracks in my 20s

I guess at the Kalinka song, Yelsin gave up at doing the whistle part of the song and just started yelling instead.

What the fuck have i done?!?! - Mikhail Gorbachev

Oh to have been his bodyguard!

This man is just awesome. 🤣🤣👌🏻 He looks so nice like a big teddy bear lol

My favorite Yeltsin moment was when he walked up to Gorbachev as he was at the podium addressing the Russian Parliament, handed him some papers and stabbed a finger in his direction as he ordered "Read It!" The pause and look that Gorbachev gave him was priceless. As Gorbachev read the papers aloud, there was no doubt about who was now the Top Dog.

Truly, a touching moment that the world will never forget.

can't get enough from him it's like watching a comedy

He might not be the best politician, but those dancing moves...Impressive if you ask me. (from 0:12 to 0:15)

As we all do: we love to party, drink and prank. Jeltsin shows he is human like we ALL are

His bodyguards have probaly laughed their ass off with this guy !!!

The look on the body guards face at 0:30 "here we go again" lol

"Just remember -- this man had SEVERAL THOUSAND NUCLEAR WEAPONS at his disposal" That would work just the same with a video of George W. Bush moments.

Its comforting to know that men of such a high calibre have control of our destiny.

0:38 That dude's face when Yeltsin starts singing...Wookie? I guess... XD Ah, alcohol.

I lived in Moscow during this time, I can say while Russia's government was extremely corrupt, Boris Yeltsin himself seemed like a lot of fun and it was well known that he lived in the same apartment from soviet times. One interview (bez golstuk) told that he'd sit every evening on the same table in his kitchen and it's leg would always come loose causing the table to rock.

0:57 I DID ALL I COULD

what a fucking boss

You just gotta love him. Amazing

Boris Yeltsin is love, Boris Yeltsin is life.

Boris was much more fun than Putin!

I still remember when they showed this on German national TV somewhere in the 1990´s :) If you want to earn a rare smile from a German just say "Jelzin" in his face and you will directly get the response "Yeah, best party president Russia had :) "

LOOOOOOL I LOVE HIM Boris Yeltsin R.I.P.

Borys "Człowiek Flaszka" Jelcyn :D Tyle anegdot się o nim nasłuchałem, że głowa mała :p Ogólnie polecam książkę, którą napisał jego kierowca, a zarazem ochroniarz, niektóry motywy aż humor poprawiają :)

Thanks for making this.

The man was a crack-up! Wish there were more like him in the world.

He really had a good good time...

Boris Yeltsin was the drunken uncle I wish I had.

I can see why the United States loved this man.

LOL I Laughed so hard that my tea was running up my nose! Thanks :P

The drunkest president. 😆

this is an excellent video. good work mate.

Now there was a man who knew how to live.

I'm Laughing At Eeeeeeeeeehhhhhh Part

The best post-sovietic President!

i love his way of enjoying life to the fullest.

He said I did everything I could

You know that he was always drunk :)

Ahahahahaha, the best president ever... ahahaha thank you for this moment !! i was laughing to the tears !!!

the contrast between yeltsin and his successor couldnt be greater

Weird to think that when this video was published he was still alive

This feels like "the good old days" now. :-/

@cutekitten12 "I did everything I could" Its' when he resigned on new years eve live on TV. It was a quite a shock to us all...

You have to admit...He had some moves !

That Kalinka was Gold

0:36 оруууу 😁😂😂

Those were the days. Clinton in the same time hiting every girl he can.

Imagine he calls for a nuclear strike while drunk.

Respect dude, u are exactly right, I couldnt have said it better myself!

If all wold leader was like him=no war only party

я устал, я мухожук.

Yelstin was a very good humor man. Was a nice persone.

thank goodness!

Boris you were a great man, much more of a man than Putin will ever be!

black streak in russian history

thank u very much :)

"you would realise that Yeltsin delayed deploying the tanks for as long as possible" What a generosity! From a criminal that violated Constitution.

" Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"...Hero!

Спасибо товарищу Ельцину за наше счастливое детство.

EAAAAAAAAAAAGHHHH!!!!!!!

I don’t think this man would have invaded Ukraine if he was still president

great leader, we could sure use his wisdom today

Best president Russia have ever had!

Coincidentally, Yeltsin's finest moments were also his drunkest.

Kalinka Kalinka EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE Loving it XD

Этот президент дал свободу своему народу об этом уже многие забыли, все забыли уже как на съездах КПСС, тысячу роботов слушают главного робота который все по бумажке читает, так что лучше в свободной стране пьяный танцующий президент, чем серьезный в рабской стране, сидящий на параде победы.

THANK YOU RUSSIA

To be fair, when he's yelling into the microphone, that is KIND of part of the song :P

I know there are a lot of politic-related things about him, but from what I've seen of him (not much, just this clip actually), he's a damn funny man!

Yeah, seeing what's happening in Russia today, I find myself longing for Yeltsin again.

Я просто не понимаю, как можно уважать человека, который так унизил нашу страну...

Look at 0.47, just to epic man!!! I loved this guy!

The Polish People have great respect for Boris Yeltsin, who was guarant of peace and great friend of Republic Poland. Rest in peace

Because his Russia is weak, as I suppose

Hi russians ! How are you doing these days, starving yet ? Merry Christmas :D

The dance is awesome!

00:53 You gotta love the expression of his bodyguard.

Thank god Putin came to power

what a disaster of a president we needed Putin alot earlier.

He did not want to give up nuclear button case, even in heart operation.

This video should be used in anti-alcohol campaigns.

Man Yeltsin is the shiiiit

very serious fellow. Boris was no joke! He took on the the hardliners and made them soft liners.

LEGEND.

a bottle of vodka is one hell of a breakfast

Marvellous! he always reminded me of W.C.Fields

Also when Yeltsin took power, he was the first leader that admitted that Soviet Union had started the war, not Finland, that the Winter War happened because Soviet Union set up the so called Shelling of Mainila to set up Finland as the attacker. So in many ways Yeltsin seemed much more democratic and more open minded than what Putin and Medvedev are.But ofcourse this is just opinion from a person who doenst live in Russia,so I really can't judgebut in those aspects I respected and liked Yeltsin

Look at the dude who runs forward when Yeltsin stumbled at about 0:52! Tryin' to play it off like "Oh, I'm just fixing my hair!" LOL!

We should all be grateful he was a happy drunk!

It seems music was the thing that really got to him =)

I just love the kalinka song scene....LOOOL. And notice the face of the security guard, also when he stumbles it still the same body guard. Hard to guard Yeltsin he was so drunk all the time.

less wars, but more deaths

i love this guy
