Drunk Russian miner

The video clip is from a Russian news programme.

There was an accident at a coal mine and people were accused of drinking on the job. The interviewer is trying to see if there is any truth in the rumour,and when one of the other workers turns up unannounced.

Don't need sound, unless you can speak Russian.

transcript from my Russian mate:

[Man] We've got our last salary on March 6th, and it was due for last November.
[Reporter] When was the last time you've worked? [presumably meaning the last day at work - beaver_slayer]
[Man] Last month, November, November 17
[Mumbling in the background] Imagine waiting for your salary for half a year.
[Man-presumably responding to mumbling] Yes.
[Reporter] Why did you decide to turn to this extreme measure?
[Man] Because they don't pay. They keep on telling lies.
[Reporter] Do you think it'll help?
[Man] Don't know
[Another man] Hope so.
[Man] Yes, hope so. We're counting on your help.

not quite the news story as reported, but still damn funny!
