Crazy ass Russians. I'm curious if they looked at the chair lift before putting it back in motion.

Those Kazaks must be wondering why the engineer thought It'd be god to put the lift in such a path, but, if you look at pics of the area online, at least two lifts are derictly in avalanche paths.

Ready in a while - Ready - It's gone! - F**k! (lit. Di*k!) - F**kin' hell! - F**k it! - Totally, completely! - (unintelligible) - ...gone, the fourth one (don't know what it refers to) - (something about snow and the way it went)

That's as much as my bad Russian goes.
