Death

On Saturday January 12, 2008, on his way to a party, he was driving a Volkswagen Golf on the 69th kilometer of the Kalyazin-Sergiyev Posad (Калязин - Сергиев Посад) highway, in the Tver region, near Савихино. At 3:40 am[1] or PM[10][11][12] Moscow time he tried to pass a truck while driving up a mountain in wet and foggy weather, and approached a Volkswagen Transporter minivan/minibus head-on; both were going about 100 km/h (about 60 mph); both tried to swerve to avoid each other, but they nevertheless collided. The airbags and seatbelt worked, but he died instantly from injuries to his head, bones, and internal organs. Passers-by called for an ambulance, which arrived within 3 minutes.[1][2][4][6][8][9][10][11][12][21]

The collision was at an angle, impacting the front left side of his car. Before the accident, his car was in good working order, except for possibly a broken wheel, which required additional forensic analysis. The truck that he tried to pass did not remain at the scene, and therefore was the target of suspicion for potentially being at fault in the accident.[21][22]

Two female passengers in his car had non-life-threatening injuries. Three people in the minibus were injured. The 33-year old driver of the minivan/minibus was brought to the Kalyazinsky hospital and discharged with a concussion, then returned home to Kesova Gora and will get long-term treatment. An injured passenger on the minibus named Yuliya Merkulova who was the mother of two children went to Tver regional hospital and died on Tuesday January 22, 2008, due to a pulmonary embolism the previous day, and a 50-year-old passenger fractured her hip and both forearms and went to hospital Кесовогорскую ЦРБ, for surgery beginning on Wednesday January 23, 2008. Two 30-year-old passengers on the minibus were taken to the Kalyazinsky hospital: one had a dislocated left hip, fractured right hip, and eye and face burns caused by battery vapor leakage, and the other had multiple leg fractures.[1][9][10][11][12][21][22]

His car and the minibus were sent for examination. The Russian Federation's prosecutor's office opened a criminal case under the criminal code, Article 264 "Violation of the Rules for Traffic Safety and Operation of Transport Vehicles",[23] Part 2 ("which has involved by negligence the death of a person"[23]).[12]

On Sunday January 13, 2008, his widow and other relatives, as well as Sergei Stillavin, with whom he co-hosted talk shows for about 10 years, attended a memorial service for him at the Nikolo-Klobukovsky/Kablukovsky Monastery near the town of Kashin.[1][12]

As of Monday January 14, 2008, about 170,000 condolence notes were posted on the website of state radio station Mayak, where his most recent talk show was hosted. During his normal timeslot that day, parts of his previous episodes were re-aired, and journalists took calls from listeners live.[1][12]

On Tuesday January 15, 2008, he had a funeral at the Central House of Journalists in Moscow from 10 am to noon, then was buried in Troyekurovskoye Cemetery, also in Moscow.[1][2][4][5][8][12]

As of his death, his wife Yuliya (b. 5 December 1976) and two daughters, Katya (b. 28 November 1997) and Liza (b. 29 October 2007) were still alive.[1][2][4][5][6][10][11][12]
