Yakutia: hapsagay and passion around the ferry
After Lena (as well as, and in Aldan) there is no bridge. This is a big problem for the whole of the Republic of Sakha. In winter ride on the ice, in the summer ferries every hour, but in the off-season can not drive at all. Ferries commercial and go to the last - the last autumn steam is already a risk pokorezhit side of the floe, and the price of transportation truck can reach 100 thousand rubles (usually - a couple of thousand). But even in the midst of all navigation is built very long:

As throughout the country was a holiday, the captain of the ferry through megaphone sternly warned that the first buses will travel with children returning from holiday. Severely repeated three times on the entire coast, "without waiting for the ferry today, no one will drive! The first buses will go with children! "As a result, the children passed the first, but not immediately:
One foreign car tried to enter the queue, and the captain had to shout in megaphone and even raise the ladder. As I later naguglit in foreign car driver drove an elderly couple: People's Artist of the USSR and her husband - a veteran children's writer and honored worker of culture, it was a stroke, and with a broken arm. But at the time nobody knew why the car did not let the queue. She drove buses and also after taking its place on the ferry. Much more later, tempers flared when the buses with children rode. In turn, I tried to enter the side Caucasian KAMAZ-tap (yes, in Yakutia are working newcomers Caucasians):
But to enter the center of the stage he was not given - and they have not allowed. Caucasian very offended. And though he was all wrong notions circle (or maybe just for this reason?), Hot southern blood made him jump out of the car with a tire iron. He was angry, shouting loudly and throwing all around:
Special screams and threats he unleashed on KAMAZ, who gave him a ride:
He pounded the mount to the body, then opened the door and poked the driver mount:
Mount it seemed a little - in his free hand he grabbed a stone and now waving them:
How would say shamans, his soul took over evil demons Underworld:
The sea of emotions, just very scary Terminator:
Finally from behind KAMAZ, he switched to sluchivshegsya nearby Yakutia and got into a fight, brandishing a crowbar:
Yakut appeared though quiet but not shy. He did not cry and waved his arms in vain. Just in case:
The first movement of the Yakut robbed bully pry, and she fell on the ground:
Caucasians did not stop, he got into a fight, swinging his fists:
And though Caucasian was larger and higher fists it somehow did not reach the goal:
Yakut held a reception and knocked the bully:
Then did capture:
And in such a situation I kept raging, waiting for the rest:
As usual: he saw that the villain is defeated and no longer dangerous, the crowd jumped some well-wishers and began kicking villain chained fist:
Came to the rescue drivers dragged intervened, explaining that it is not a man:
And then gently separate the couple, making sure Caucasian again began to twitch:
Prostrate and rumpled, then the long hissing and snorting, but quietly to himself:
And our hero was left to wait patiently for their turn. He was still calm and unruffled.
National Yakut wrestling called hapsagay. It helped her techniques Yakutia so easy and bloodless calm the raging bully. Hapsagaya rules are simple: it is necessary to stay on his feet. Anyone who touches the ground with something other than the legs - immediately lost. This struggle comes from antiquity, competitions were held in Yakutia always. The prize winner is traditionally served boiled femur horse meat, koumiss cup and the song in his honor. But the vanquished showed "insulting fig, blurred earth." The word "hapsagay" is translated from the Yakut roughly as "deftly and quickly grab act." Fighting is mentioned in the most famous Yakut work - heroic epic Olonkho: there is the hero of the Middle World (our world) wins a representative of the dark forces using techniques hapsagay. I think we are on the pics above you see the modern version of this particular episode Olonkho. In Yakutia hapsagay very popular, boys engaged in the fight against childhood. So go school competitions hapsagayu in the distant village of Poplar, which I'll discuss in the next time:
