    Look at this - mental! Don't think there is a thread on it already. Up to 70 members of an Islamic sect have been found living underground in Russia. It is believed that they have been there for 10 years and that many of the children born in their subterranean bunker/cave have never seen sunlight.

    It's like that Brendan Fraser movie come to life!

    Poor kids though :(. You really don't get to choose the kind of crazy you're born into.

    What people are prepared to do in the name of God or Allah never ceases to amaze me.

    Shocking stuff. However, if they make a movie of this I think The Jam's "Underground" should definitely be on the soundtrack.

    Sadly not the first underground sect found in Russia.

    Dunno... although one man has said to reporters about the dark down there "I was born in it, moulded by it. I didn't see the light until I was already a man, by then it was nothing to me but BLINDING"

    nutjob. :pac:

    Clearly "Blast from the Past"! The rosemantic one in which he falls in love with Drew Barrymore after spending his entire adult life in a nuclear fallout bunker.

    It's v touching. There is dancing and all sorts in it.

    Err, I think that was Alicia Silverstone.

    Great movie, though. Christopher Walken and Sissy Spasek were funny as heck.

    Maybe Gloria Estefan's "Coming Out of the Dark"

    or

    "The Only Way is Up" - Yaz

    Oh big surprise, muslim fanatics, didn't know they existed.
    I feel sorry for the older children/teenagers because they surely won't recover from the retarded brainwash they will have been put through.

    It would be funny if the Catholic church hurried there to quickly try and nurse them back to normal, but sadly the Orthodox church has more of a grip in Russia.
