That was impressive. I hope the cab is water-proof, or else the driver gets really cold in that water.

They do river crossings like this in many places in Eastern Russia, reason is, the bridges are gone, too unsafe to use, or damaged. There is no interior infrastructure (roads) that bridge eastern and western Russia.

Here is a link to the Long way round Video with Ewan McGregor a few years back...
