Tsar Nicholas II gives tips for survival in Russia's extreme climate.

Sketch comedy series. Tsar Nicholas II gives tips for survival in Russia's extreme climate, and Lenin provides advice on how to look good after death.

On its hundredth anniversary, Horrible Histories takes a look at the Russian Revolution. Tsar Nicholas II gives us tips for survival in Russia's extreme climate (clue: a massive amount of wealth helps), and we reveal that Lenin's European Communism lecture tour took in a trip to London Zoo. Lenin also gives us beauty advice on how to look good even after death! Meanwhile, Dave TDS finds out just how hard it is to invade Russia, and we listen to Uncle Joe Stalin's Nursery Rhymes and find out that, at one point, he also decided that the key to world domination might, in fact, lie in poo.
