What is the reason to jump from 5th floor? Fire? Terror? Some other danger? Nothing from this in this case. This guy just get drunk and decided to try something new. I should note that getting drunk and trying something new is almost the only type of entertainment in small russian cities.

Guy was not seriously harmed.

And again.. Parking.

Bikes in Moscow

While I was in Berlin this winter, I was amazed by the conditions created for cyclists. Bicycle in Berlin is a very good alternative to car, and most people use it. Bike lanes almost on every street, bike parkings and rent of bikes. To overcome a large distance, bike can be transported by public transport: there is special space in U-Bahn and S-Bahn trains and elevators almost on every station.

The situation in Moscow is quite different. Bike lanes is rare in Moscow. Where there are bike lanes, they are ignored by drivers and pedestrians.

Little remark: Sergey Sobianin never used a bicycle to trevel to his office. In contrast of London mayor Boris Johnson:

There is no conditions to use bike as a primary transport in Moscow. Also it is very difficult to use bike even for fun and health. Bike lanes opened in parks are used by pedestrians, runners or even parents with prams what makes it hard to pass with a bike.
