Meanwhile somewhere around the Caucasus... Multiple counts of assault? check. Food fights? Check. Crazy-ass floor and table dancing? Check. Elevated levels of WTF? Check. Possible homicide and customary throw-the-corpse-out-of-the-window? Check. Don't worry, it's just another wedding.

...how is Dagestan in AZARBAYJAN? It isn't even in Azerbaijan, it's a separate state or part of Russia depending who you ask.

Caucasus pro tip: No matter what the answer is, do not disagree.

Looks like a party pretty much anywhere in the world. The "possible homicide" is impossible to determine, especially with the editing, and the "out the window" looks more like "give him air".

You might not believe me, because the video isn't there any more, but it's a double.

WTF? Oh, Sarge, you're such a chancercharacter!

Hm. On careful consideration, I acknowledge the possibility that Sgt Serenity didn't actually post the same video twice and that Happy Dave has correctly identified the double post. What was the post I found? Very few people know, and that's a good reason for not having single link posts to ephemera.

Wedding Rule No. 1: the women should never cede the dance floor to the men.

this is one case where the youtube comments are just as interesting as the video. it's like watching the buildup to world war one. anybody know the real backstory?

"just because it say AZARBAYJAN does not mean they are azeris, you can tell by they noses they are not azeris they are dagestan and maybe this wedding was in azerbaijan"

"Azeries are low-grade people."

"You f***ing idiots. This is not an Azeri wedding and Dagestan is not Azerbaijan. It is part of Russia. The sign on the wall is clearly in Russian. Before you go on rant showing your hatred for Azeris, pull your head out your a** and see what you are commenting on."

I feel like convention requires me to say or do the following things
1) lol (something) Amirite?
2) Best of the web?
3) Complain about USains
4) Christ what an asshole
5) Write something in very small font
