Победа! Patriotic Seals Twirl Guns, Wear Berets for Mother Russia
Today, Russia celebrated the 70th anniversary of Nazi Germany’s defeat with the nation’s biggest Victory Day parade since the collapse of the Soviet Union. Much more importantly, however, a Russian circus observed the holiday by dressing up two Baikal seals as Soviet-era soldiers, giving us this wonderful, wonderful video.
“Despite the fact that the Weasel - a girl, and Pooh - boy, the hardships they suffer the same service. Bravely and courageously,” reports Russia-1 via Google Translate. “Hats worn. It was difficult for them.”
Jingoism and circuses are very bad, but these pictures are very good. Is paradox, no?
