Andrey Rostotsky

A talented actor died May 5, 2002 on the set of the series «My Border» — he fell off a 30-meter cliff near the Maiden Tears waterfall in the vicinity of Sochi. On that ill-fated day, he decided to walk along a mountain trail along which the actors were supposed to go the next day, and at the same time check it out. According to the widow Marianne, Andrei stepped on the so-called «moving stone» and collapsed with it. Easter holiday fell on May 5 that year, so the wife and directors of the film asked Andrei not to go to the mountains and postpone all things, but he did not listen to them and, in fact, died because of his perseverance and love of work.
