Dan Sheekoz is an average Russian citizen with a YouTube channel he created because he wanted to learn English, make new friends worldwide and to eventually travel to other countries. He is a very likeable guy who has posted many videos with his wife and daughter living a typical Russian life to share those experiences with others around the world. His dream is to someday visit NYC and see the sights, meet the people. He refers to his YT audience as "adorables". Dan started posting well before the Ukrainian war.

In this short update, Dan describes what is happening inside Russia because of the escalation with Ukraine, how it effects him, his draft age friends and Russian life in general. I find it enlightening to hear a typical Russian man on the street's thoughts about the current situation inside Russia.

This video has over 150K views in its first 10 hours. Dan has become very popular worldwide in the past year.

I thoroughly enjoyed that video. He is quite possibly the "realest" person I've seen in front of a camera in ages.

Good post OP.

Thanks! I've been following Dan for about a year now. Dan is a genuine nice guy. His earlier videos show various aspects of Russian life. His video of walking through supermarkets months after Biden's sanctions against Russia took effect were great. No empty shelves, Dan would convert the Rubles pricing to Dollars and that was eye opening. He had a couple of videos on gasoline and diesel prices in his area - and did the conversions, a video with his electric bills and converted that to dollars, videos of various Russian carnivals (like our county fairs or regional fairs), Russian cars (including imports) and affordability, a vacation trip to the southern coast, all kinds of aspects of Russian life from an average man's perspective. Good stuff, very educational and heart warming.
