I'm assuming the mass shooters that attacked the theatre near Moscow, are destined to reside at one of these places.

Prisons should be a punishment, not a taxpayer funded holiday.

These prisons look perfect until someone gets framed for a crime that he has not committed.

The only problem with a prison like this is ... 1. Gotta be careful to not put average criminals in it. 2. The type of guards it takes to run it are probably nearly as evil as the prisoners but they get to go home everyday & interact with the public...

Russians don't coddle their prisoners

Western Prisons are a pleasure resort compared to that.

I like how they put it in a place where escape is pointless. There's nowhere to go.

How many souls have been wrongfully convicted and sent to those places. God only knows

Listening to this made me want to go outside and just take a walk around my neighborhood and enjoy that I get to see nature and houses and have freedom.

I wouldn’t want to be a guard there let alone a prisoner.

Stalin's gulags were even worse. Prisoners were housed in barracks, and forced to work outside at temperatures down to 50 below F, cutting trees and hauling them out of the taiga. Most did not live long enough to complete their sentences, but if they did, they were released into internal exile. They had to stay in Siberia. The very worst prisoners were sent even further north to work in uranium mines. The death rate was appalling. Few survived. Russia has always been tough on the criminal class, especially political prisoners.

The guards are prisoners too. Psychologically speaking, the guards are probably just as squirrelly as the inmates.

The lesson here is don’t get arrested in Russia

You mean they dont get TVs, Radios, Cell Phones, Basketball, Softball Team, Art Classes, commissary, Drugs, Sex, Released for good behavior, etc... like US Prisoners??

Watching this from the comfort of my Norwegian prison.

Many are political prisoners who have protested aginst the regime. Do we want a system like this I don't think so.

When you denied the human rights of your victim, human rights don't apply to you anymore.

The prison is inhume ? What about the victims of the prisoners.. isn't the crimes inhumane ?

Norway treats prisoners humanely, the opposite of this jail and has a far lower recidivism rate than elsewhere. The ultra harsh conditions don’t help rehabilitate anyone and mean that they will be worse and probably mentally unstable if and when they are eventually freed.

In the UK when a prisoner is missing a gym session he puts 25 complains that his human rights are badly Violated

The Black Dolphin. Abandon all hope ye who enter here.

The Black Dolphin is another hardcore prison in Russia.

Crime not decreased in Russia when compared to other countries prisons despite the cruel treatment so what is the purpose of not being able to make amends .

I guess you can make the case that nothing is bad enough for some. But what worries me is that this is Russia, not exactly known for its fair justice system. The thought that an innocent person could be subjected to this is terribly sad.

Cells in Sweden have table lamps and carpets on the floor and great food, who would want to leave ? 😂😂😂

For all the people saying they deserve it have you taken into account this is Russia we are talking about? You don't think any of these people are wrongly convicted or political prisoners? The ones guilty yes they deserve it but some aren't and they dont

you can imagine how was the gulag innocent ppl priests, political oponents,put together w hard core crominals in these horrible conditions

Wow our prisons in Australia is like staying at the ritz hotel compared to these horrendous prisons in Russia.

I’d take the owl prison any day over some Indian, south East Asian or South American prisons. At least owl is clean, orderly and not crowded.

I work in a State prison in Florida. The inmates get the best of everything, even the lifers. They get Tablets to watch movies or play games, they get the most expensive medicines with only a 5 dollar co payment for doctor visits. They get special meals for religious holidays. They got stimulus checks from the Government during covid. They get cantine store goods, big screen TVs in the dorm. I would rather be in prison than being homeless anyday free food and free education. In fact if you drop your custody level you can take college classes and get your degree for free.

El Salvador has some pretty gnarly prisons too

I think I'd just assume be dead than have to live out my days in a places like this. There'd be absolutely zero point in living anymore and just costing tax payers money to barely keep one self alive. The fact that these types of places have to exist in the first place, especially in any kind of mass quantity is rather barbaric when you think about it. Are we not more evolved as a species by now? I'm not saying those who committed terrible crimes should receive no consequences. I'm stating what more can we do as a society to act more intelligently to solve society's ill's rather than respond emotionally and vengefully to such crimes. What can we do to channel resources into more preventative maintenance methods rather than resorting to a money sucking system that costs tax payers over $31,500 a year just to keep one prisoner locked up! That's insane to me! 295-Billion dollars of tax payer money a year for our monstrosity of a justice system! Is there not more we can do to help keep people on a better course in life and out of the criminal justice system in the first place! To shrink the number of prisons and cells required. Right now the United States has the highest incarceration rate in the world by a very large margin! The only main industry left in this country seems to be to poison people while at the same time making systems of endless treatments or punishment for profit. Our food is poison. Our Families are broken. Our education system is broken. Our communities and neighborhoods are broken and divided. Our media is full of lies and division. Mainstream music is poison. Entertainment industry is mostly smut and violence. Our entire system is currently set up in such a way as to utterly destroy people and most of it's aimed at our young when they're just kids! We need to start UNITING again and solving society's issues at their root causes. We need to have a justice system with laws and consequences based on logic and reason rather than a desire for endless vengeance and punishment at maximum expense and endless human suffering. Truth is in this modern age people haven't changed a bit. Might have modern tech but people's minds are still in the dark ages!

The black dolphin…. Inmates BEGIN to suffer mental illness after a couple months of being there … 🤔….i think they were already ill before …that’s why they are there … it’s just amplified in such a horrific place 🤔

the ONLY issue I have with these prisons are if they are housing ANYONE who has been WRONGLY ACCUSED and is INNOCENT :(

Cruel and unusual to me. Psychological torture, and standing in one position all day is psychical torture.

I know three persons who were exposed to TB in prison. The disease literally ate their lungs.

Russian prisons don’t play games! The inmates get the harshest conditions due to horrific crimes they committed! You commit the crimes, you get what coming to you and that’s on you!

I’d rather go to war than be sentenced to this fate.

Disagreeing with the government agenda is not a crime!

It goes with the punishment fits the crime.

I would have thought that Russia would have the death penalty, it would be preferable than life in one of those places.

The 8th amendment to the US constitution prohibits ‘cruel or unusual’ punishment, some complain about this which allows prisoners to read a newspaper or listen to music as ‘coddling’ prisoners convicted of horrible crimes, but without these protections, some US states would certainly harm, torture, starve and abuse convicts. In particular, state prisons in Texas, Oklahoma, Mississippi & Alabama are notoriously heinous and with those states conviction of minorities at rates greater than 3x the rate of other states.

This is abuse on the highest level. So horrible. Even getting human treatments should have rights. Although I don't like what they did this is sick. Not even letters.

Wonder how it is to be a guard or other employee at these prisons. Where do they live, especially if the prison is isolated from everything else? Two days away from home? And the support system for the prisons, gotta have medical staff and supplies, food delivery, lightbulbs, trash removal, dog food and care etc. There’s a lot of non prisoner people that also have to deal with the grim environment to keep those isolated prisons working. Seriously just curious how that’s dealt with.

If US prison was anything like that the crime rate would not be as high.

All these tough guys in the comments saying shit like "prison aint supposed to be a vacation" but literally they said in the video most of these prisoners are enemies of the government so imagine how many people are exposed to this shit that literally dont deserve it

Yes, these men did horrible things. However, look closer at the society from which they came from, and you can see where they learned to behave that way.

I would go insane if I was in that Russia prison in the Artic circle.

I’d hate to have a *bad back* and be a prisoner in that prison.

The UK prison system needs to learn from this place.

Statistics say they about 5% of US prisoners are wrongfully convicted, with about 7,000 serving life sentences. Russia has a higher potential for wrongful convictions due to its less transparent justice system and limited access to legal resources. Imagine being a wrongfully convicted prisoner in one of these prisons. Mercy

That is still jeaven for prisoners, come and see the prisoners cell in the Philippines and youll see hell on earth.

Yet these heinous crimes are still being committed. New prisoners at the polar owl every year

This seems like hell on earth to me. I'd rather be dead for sure!

For those who wish the US had a similar prison system, they must wish to live in that country also. Everything comes in a package.

It’s amazing that people work at such a place.

Russia has no death penalty.

A lot of Russias most brutal prisons are named after animals. Owl, Black Dolphin..

If only all of our criminal politicians and leaders could go there.

Just retired from a maximum security prison here in the usa. The inmates have an NBA court law libraries more updated than any law school in the country, a gym indoors, and outdoors HBO now tablets in their cells. I can go on and on lol.

Those guards are hardcore too. Look at their outfits. They are barely wearing thin jackets there. I need a huge puffer coat and snow pants to deal with those temps

Imagine the monsters they employ to mange the other monsters. Glad they are all far away from most people…

This country does everything it can to suck the happiness out of anything and anyone...

Black dolphin prison replica in the U.S. in the desert southwest of the US, no swamp coolers or air conditioning

I feel bad for that officer that has to stand out there and watch them walk. -30 out, still gotta watch them.

I was a CO at a small county jail in my state and the inmates got treated like royalty. It was ridiculous!! They knew they could throw a fit and get whatever they wanted. 🙄😒 They’d even throw a fit and demand muffins instead of donuts for breakfast on some days. I blame the jail admin for making the jail like that and not being more strict. People in our town joke around and call it a motel. 🙄

I think we are way too easy on our prisoners in America .

Wonder how the prison staff cope with working in such a radically dystopian environment. What kind of mental health condition are they in? We know the condition of the inmates. Is it worse for inmates or staff all things being equal-indeed a very medieval penal system.

I hadn't heard of Polar Owl prison before. Black Dolphin, yes. Madagascar and Haiti are pretty bad as well.

Everyone should watch Empire of Terror on Daily Wire Plus. It documents the horrors of Lenin and Stalin. Their gulags were far worse than these prisons, and many people who ended up in those places were innocent.

I was a Prison Officer in the UK working in a Category A High Risk Prison. I worked with all types of inmates as I worked on the Hospital Wings Housing up to forty on each wing. Some were very mentally disturbed and dangerous but others were there as the result of injuries sustained because of their crimes. The Sex Offenders and the ones who had committed unspeakable crimes against women and especially children I absolutely hated. The thing is the public doesn’t get to know the full truth and extent of their crimes as we do as we read their core records as we have to deal with them and write reports on their behaviour. Sentencing for these offenders is a joke and so is the rights they have behind bars.

Their ham strings must be really strong for being forced to bend down while walking I feel bad for the prison guards who need to live there..

Here in Kerala. Three time meals, weekly once mutton, periodic parol. Almost like a retirement plan😅

Watching this confirms one thing. The obvious mental illness of many individuals to know prisons like this exist and yet still act in the manner they did to get themselves into there. No matter what punishment the human mind can think of there will always be people willing to risk that fate to accomplish what they desire whether by spontaneous means or premeditated occurrence.

So many morbid people out there. No human should be tortured physically or mentally.

They should do a new season of 60 days in at dolphin

What about all of the political prisoners that Russia is so famous for.

primitív countries have primitive prisons. ppl are not animals. only your rules are

And people want to live under authoritarian governments.

Russia don't mess about, the west should take notice

If prisons in U.S. were like this maybe there wouldn't be so much crime here...

Not allowing them to socialize causes a soul to go insane, that’s pretty cruel.

So Russia doesn't believe in a death penalty??

I personally knew a man who escaped the Gulags. Seriously. His name was Slava and he was 90 something in 1985 when I met him in Phoenix. He flew his self-engineered and self-built ultralight aircraft. He crashed it in a newly plowed field and was fine! Totaled the plane. When my dad and I picked him up, he was laughing.

America needs punishment for prisoners rather than day care centers

And yet it still didn't stop them from committing their crimes.

How the fuck would someone in that prison even get drugs and how the fuck are they GIVEN a syringe😭

So it seems the only purpose of a Russian high security prison is to destroy the prisoners mind.

The North Koreans are saying "Hey Russia hold our Vodka"

Why bother making it so secure, nobody would survive it anyway

The USA should take these prisons as an example! Tax payer wasted institutions….Just soup and bread, no comforts whatsoever!!

Obviously this isn't minimum security. Russia has levels of prisons like here in America. It depends on the type of crime they did. That said nobody should be tortured and general population needs to be patrolled and secured more to many bad things happen and can happen. Having humans destroyed makes no sense. Containing them is one thing but our world as a society needs to start treating people with compassion and care. If hard core criminals need to be dealt with ,that's fine but isolate them humanely.

Is Snow Owl the place where they killed Navalny? Imagine suffering like this for fighting for change in your home country.

It’s a concentration camp

Is it any wonder that they sigh up to fight in any conflict.Just to be out of that hell but stright into another.crazy country.✌️

Their dogs there, look like a cross between a St. Bernard and a Doberman, with a pit bull added.

I feel like Hannibal Lector would have gone to Black Dolphin prison if he was Russian and got caught.

These makes me feel like I did everyday when I was in school 😂😂😂

In South Africa prisons are like a 5 star hotel

Probably not a popular opinion but these seems more like torture than imprisonment. I know….. they did awful things, an eye for an eye, etc. But death penalty seems more humane to me.
