Good video. From @00:40-00:48 in the video Russia grows while all others shrink for about 3 years.

From your link on the 5 year plan:

"A major event during the first Five Year-Plan was the famine of 1932–33. The famine peaked during the winter of '32–'33 claiming the lives of an estimated 3.3 to 7 million people, while millions more were permanently disabled. The famine was the direct result of the industrialization and collectivization implemented by the first Five Year-Plan... Because of the successes made by the first plan, Stalin did not hesitate with going ahead with the second five-year plan"
