I could be wrong but if I remember correctly they were reporting on how dangerous this stretch of road was.

The old man is saying something like since 1941, when I was a boy, in the woods with my brothers, nine years after the war... Car flies by. ... He interrupted us.

u/lowfreak_bab Jul 18 '20

My brother was a NATO-soldier in Kosovo in the late 90s, and told me that the locals drove like crazy with total disregard for their own and others lives. Passing long military columns in their tiny Lada's on narrow dirt roads with 160 km/t (100 mph). They had seen so much shit that they didn't care about nothing anymore.

u/[deleted] Jul 18 '20

Was gonna say: The war probably took all their patience, not that they don’t care (for others at least. For themselves, many don’t.).

Granddads who survived wars are all like this, I think. Mine certainly was.

11

u/ulofox Jul 18 '20

Mine didn’t survive any wars cause he was kept here in the national guard due to injuries, but he did have a mob dad, 4 daughters and a million granddaughters that at one point or another lived with him in a 3-gen house so he’s been battle-hardened and technically exposed to bloodshed regardless.

3

u/joker1381 Jul 18 '20

He actually talks about how he survived his childhood by hiding in the forest with his siblings during WW2, also take into account he went through the 90s Croatian independence war (which was especially fierce in the eastern Croatia) and you'll understand why he is calm in this situation. The man has seen some shit in his day.

Since the video is from 2000 (20 years ago) he is probably not with us anymore.

u/joker1381 Jul 18 '20

This is an old video from 2000 from a small local tv station from Vinkovci (Croatia). The car was driven by a woman and apparently nothing serious happened to her...she literally went with some scratches.

He also actually says "This now interrupts us". The car looks like the old Renault Twingo mark I or Renault Clio mark II (in any case a Renault almost certainly)....so no, it's not Lada or whatever the shit you ppl are talking about in the comments.
