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.
