Seems like another Russian elite has tragically and completely accidentally plummeted 70 feet out of a high rise window. Vyacheslav Leontyev, a top media mogul that ran several publications over many decades including Pravda the mouthpiece of the state run communist party managed to live 87 years without falling clumsily out of a window but it seems his luck has run out. Kremlin investigators who were fortuitously already on the scene were unable to save him and following a lengthy 38 second investigation immediately declared his death “a definite accident”.
It’s estimated that falling from windows accidentally has killed a member of the Russian elite every 60 days in the last 3 years making it the leading cause of death in that demographic.
Here’s a short list of just some of those unfortunate souls who definitely tripped, stumbled or deliberately jumped from a great height:
More like splatting Czechs. Many actually survived. They claimed that the Virgin Mary had appeared to them as they were hurtling through the air, gathered them up and laid them softly on the ground.
Truth is they landed in a big pile of horse shit which softened their fall.
Perhaps these Russian oligarchs should invest in some compost heaps.
