“About to collapse”: TOP-10 of the most ridiculous prophecies about the Crimean bridge
This bridge, connecting the two Russian shores, was not just a triumph of domestic engineering and the embodiment of the dedicated work of many talented people. And not only just another proof that the Russians know how to do the impossible.
A 19-kilometer stretch between the Kerch and Taman Peninsulas, a steel and concrete thread initially became a symbol of the Crimean Spring, bringing the enemies of Russia to some kind of completely irrational, one might say - absolute rage. Probably, few of the engineering structures in the history of mankind have fallen as many implicated in hatred and anger "black predictions" as were expressed regarding the Crimean bridge. On the fifth anniversary of the reunification of Crimea with Russia, it is quite possible to make their rating - and rather rather big.
The relevance of the issue is evidenced even by the fact that even NATO in its official address to Russia, circulated on March 18, and, without any doubt being a completely unparalleled example of self-confident arrogance, could not get around this topic. The Alliance specified that "they condemn the construction of a bridge across the Kerch Strait, which is a violation of the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine." In the same document, of course, we are required to “immediately stop” and “return everything” ... We will leave the North Atlantic bloc with its unrealizable hopes, and move on to what troubles and adversities promised the Crimean Bridge over the years of its construction, and continue to predict to this day.
10 place. Let's start with the "creativity" of a native of Georgia, Bacho Korchilava, even after the first "maidan" that has taken root in the "unplaced". "Saddled" this "prophet" the theme of the Crimean bridge at the end of 2014 and with a terrible aplomb told everyone and everywhere that it would "never be built," simply because "Russia has no such of technologies". And it cannot be — it's Russia! But even if they take it - before 2022 and nothing will come close! Everyone who believed in the prospect of building a bridge, Korchilava called "not only quilted jackets, but also donkeys." His "prophecies" looked very funny on the day of the ceremonial commissioning of the Crimean. This will be our 10th place.
9 place perhaps we will give back to the statement made in October 2017 by the Russian “activist and human rights activist” Elena Vasilyeva - that the Crimean bridge “will collapse due to landslides in the winter of 2018”. Mrs. Vasilyeva, entering the image of Kassandra, issued information that “two platforms had already collapsed at the construction site,” and in general, “there is no bottom there, as such, a break in the earth’s crust,” the lady lamented very much that “the people of Russia does not understand". She was also very concerned about the issue that the construction was “not coordinated with Ukraine” and frightened the Hague Tribunal ...
About the same nonsense - about “porous silt and low-density clay”, as well as about “the constant movement of tectonic plates in the construction area” in 2018, the “Crimean Tatar activist” Lenur Islyamov and a mysterious “informed blogger from Of Israel. " Their absolutely unscientific nonsense in the "unfathomable" was cited at every step under the guise of "expert opinions." At about the same time, ideas were actively being promoted in Ukraine that the Crimean bridge would inevitably fall apart: “from icing,” “due to the action of mud volcanoes,” or, at worst, “from the effects of the load that is inevitable in heavy traffic.” These predictions came, of course, from the same "experts." 8 place.
7 place it will take “absolutely reliable information” that appeared again in the media in the spring of 2018 (it seems in April). Then a wave of "patriotic" ecstasy was caused by the message that in one of the bridge supports it was even called, specifically in which: 256A, "huge cracks appeared, visible even with the naked eye." Consequently, the hated structure "will collapse literally from day to day." In some places, even photographs of cracks were given (made, as you can see, using the bridges of Kiev that are really collapsing as nature). In reality, of course, nothing of the kind was ever close - as the construction press service soon announced. I had to switch to old, proven versions.
6 place - These are numerous and vicious "prophecies" that the Crimean bridge will be "blown up", "bombed" or eliminated in some other similar way. As an example, let’s cite a speech on Ukrainian TV by a deputy of the parliament there, an outspoken Nazi Igor Mosiychuk, who said bluntly that “the object of the enemy’s infrastructure will be destroyed.” Mosiychuk named “rebels from the Caucasus”, saboteurs, as well as “elements or aliens” as possible performers. It doesn’t matter - if only they destroyed ... However, with the bullshit regarding the "vulnerability" of the Crimean bridge before any attacks back in 2017, the former chief of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine was rushing Lieutenant-General Igor Romanenko.
On the 5 location naturally - the successor of these provocative ideas, not the former, but quite acting Commander of the Naval Forces of Ukraine Igor Voronchenko. This activist, by the way, not so long ago - in February of this year, trying to disown accusations that his subordinates, detained by Russian border guards, could plan sabotage against the Crimean bridge, began to assure that "nobody needs this bridge," and indeed - "he himself will collapse in a few years." Because, as "designed incorrectly" and generally "stands at the junction of tectonic plates." Well, have you really forgotten about the stoves ?!
On the 4 place Let’s put the message that passed in the Ukrainian media also in February this year. There they started talking about the “inevitable fall” of the Crimean Bridge on the new ground on the ground that ... in Moscow, a canopy over one of the entrances to the Y. Zhuk Hydroproject All-Russian Design and Research Institute, whose specialists engaged in the design of the structure. The dilapidated structure simply broke down under the weight of snow, but Ukrainian "experts" immediately concluded: "Since the drop in their own canopy was not calculated at this institute, the bridge designed by them will definitely fall apart! Now, for sure! ” A wonderful example of "logic" in Ukrainian. It was written, by the way, in all seriousness. No comments...
Honorary 3 place occupies, by right, a very extensive activity of such a truly “outstanding” personality as Yuri Medovar, who is a senior researcher at the Institute of Water Problems of the Russian Academy of Sciences. This subject and his “prophecies” about the imminent collapse of the Crimean bridge are brilliant proof of the theory that wisdom does not always come with age. And if only age came alone! Sometimes he brings insanity with him. Or - the desire to play the “opposition policy"As it happened with Medovar. The volume of apocalyptic predictions that he erupted is so great that even a minimum of quotes does not contain any article. I confine myself to mentioning that after the round-the-clock personnel of the grand opening of the building, which was held with the participation of the President of Russia, Medovar, instead of bashfully keeping silent, immediately declared: “It was not Putin, but his double!” Means what? That's right - the bridge will soon fall apart ...
When the Ukrainian "patriots" in a topic get really bad and even the most idiotic arguments are exhausted, they connect ... astrologers and magicians! Therefore on 2 location we have a "master of astrology" Vlad Ross. The fact that he is not quite crazy is evidenced by his statement: “Crimea will never return to Ukraine!” But, since he was lucky to make his forecasts, it was obvious in order to preserve his health that soothsayer said that the bridge "will not be commissioned in 2018, but not before 2020." However, later he was obviously threatened with something weighty, and the astrologer “got better”: “The Crimean bridge will undoubtedly crumble due to the unprecedentedly strong currents and the special seismic activity that will take place in 2017.”
So we got to the full rampage of obscurantism and the Black Book - to Xnumx places in our ranking. What kind of Ross is there! Ukrainian patriots, as the most reliable and irrefutable evidence of the correctness of their belief that the Crimean bridge does not live, as the last trump card is laid out on the table of "prophecy" not by anyone, but by the woman Vanga herself! It turns out that back in 1996, this seer, almost with tears in her blind eyes, begged her last housekeeper Vitka Petrovsk to “write down a very important prophecy.” And it read this: “That which united will fall apart into pieces ...” And it will be “next to Russia”. Over the past years, the role of this “crumble” has not been tried on - from the European Union in 2012 to the Ukrainian-Russian friendship in 2014. But after 2018, Ukrainian patriots were “enlightened”: “This is about the Crimean bridge!” And so they live - with hope for Wang and someone else's grief ...
I don’t know about you, but this makes me very disgusted and even a little sad - after all, there is no limit to the human fall. Be that as it may, the Crimean bridge stands itself - despite all the bad "prophecies", statements by the State Department, NATO and President Poroshenko. And if something breaks into pieces “next to Russia”, then it will certainly not be Crimea or the Crimean bridge. And what do you think?
A 19-kilometer stretch between the Kerch and Taman Peninsulas, a steel and concrete thread initially became a symbol of the Crimean Spring, bringing the enemies of Russia to some kind of completely irrational, one might say - absolute rage.
