With all this Russia/Ukraine shit, I decided to pull up Google Maps (I get it, google sucks). I wanted to check out the Russia/Ukraine border location, but was immediately drawn to how close Russia and Alaska were. I zoomed in and saw the Diomede Islands which basically split our country and theirs. After fucking around on little Diomede Island, I moved over to the Big Diomede Island and bam, there is only 1 fucking link and its to a crashed Russian airplane that supposedly went down during the Cold War! Anyone of you mother fuckers can go to this. Please check it the fuck out. But don't lie to me and tell me this is a crashed war plane, because crashed planes don't look like this 50 years after they crashed. this plane was put here.

Furthermore, there are many articles out there about how an American woman who swam b/w the islands and Gorbachev and Reagan recognized her for this feat (which united the two countries)

PS: I have bicycles from when I was a kid that look worse trying to do bunny hops that this plane does from crashing!
