Russians drive over North Pole to Canada

In a world first, an exploration team has proved that it's possible to drive from Russia to Canada.

To achieve this feat, the team from Russia used modified buses with huge tires to carry them across the frozen wastes. In a trip that took them over two-and-a-half months, the explorers traveled over 4,000km at an average of 10km per hour. The journey began at the Russian archipelago Severnaya Zemlya and ended at Resolute Bay in the Canadian far north.

I'm surprised they didn't use a row boat -- considering that global warming has melted the ice cap....

[T-Bird45]

I guess the Canadians better get busy on that northern border fence right away!!!

Excellent observation!

One thing you have to admire about the Russians is that they seem to have resisted the stupid cultural trends and decadent bandwagons that Americans and Europeans have embraced so passionately.

The Russians seem to have an itch for truth and reality to which Western decadents have anesthetized themselves. Denial is a powerful anesthetic.

Seriously now, you don’t really believe the Russians buy into that claptrap when they live right next door to the ice?

Unexplained-mysteries.com in an apt metaphorical placement for an article that will never see the light of day in the so-called “LIV-MSM”, as no climate news is news unless it supports the hysterical consensus.

What say you Anthony Watts?

I remember when Americans used to have a can-do spirit.

Used to be somebody would try to drive across Lake Erie from Cleveland to Canada every once and a while. I think one person actually made it.

I guess the “endangered” polar bears just need a fleet of those modified buses to get around.

[catnipman]

But, but, but how can this be? The Warmists have convinced everyone that the polar ice caps are all but gone, and all the polar bears are swimming for their lives.

What the Russians saw...

You see, it just didn’t happen. If Minitrue doesn’t tell us about it it really just didn’t happen.

[Jack Hydrazine]

I’d just use a ground effect vehicle. Much quicker that way.

[mountn man]

Should have used one of these
