How is it that every "OMG PEOPLE ARE SO STUPID!" TV special shows a sport ute being washed away by a 12" deep stream, but these guys can go window deep in rushing water and not have a problem?

The tanker truck pulling the bus across is a beautiful piece of work. That fellow with the shovel is keeping the road open, without him commerce would grind to a halt.

Ha. Is that a cable I see hooking the bus to the tanker? It'd make sense to be careful, even in Russia.

Did anybody see any windshield wipers in use? Apparently your real Russian trucker has no need for them, even when he's splashing through a river.
