shooting, so i object, i’m happy to stress, i’ll talk. after denis alimov’s words, he refused quite quickly the very next day, our film crew went to the pre-trial detention center to meet with the arrested person, but alimov didn’t even leave his position as the organizer of the death climb. i explained it in detail only to the investigator, and he has been engaged in this activity for more than a year. he has a page on the site elbrus guide, where he publishes the schedule of climbing mount elbrus, also during this recruits, uh, guides and their assistants, who directly raise this group already on the ascent in the territory of the city of pyatigorsk, he has an office. elbrus guide travel company,

their address is here cathedral 20. here. sorry, i’m really elevated, though i don’t understand, even something for a company, somehow it’s even not even heard by me, we tried to find the office of an individual entrepreneur alimov we approach the specified building. there is a guest house here. rooms for rent, no signage, nothing like the office of ip whale. alimov was not found by our film crew. we are trying unsuccessfully to find the office of the company elbrus guide, who organized the ascent to elbrus, now we will try to call his office. hello nikolai please tell me, where is your office located? we

are trying to find your office in pyatigorsk and got a little lost. the position is, right? yes, yes, yes, yes. there's just the same people go out to meet people, here. let's try to recreate the history of that fateful climb to elbrus, the program included many stages at the beginning of several days of acclimatization, some tourists abandoned the trip. as a result, 16 people went to the top of elbrus. they were accompanied by denis alimov's subordinates, two guides.

ilya chuikov and anton nikiforov and two more assistant guides daulan, kip kiev igor dankov. all of them considered themselves experienced climbers who had climbed elbrus more than once. yes, and the route was familiar to them. symptoms of prostatitis and adenoma should not distract me, so i take vitaprost. it restores the function of the prostate, and not just eliminates the symptoms. and i enjoy the life of vitaprost because it works. whatever the experts want to find, we guarantee the quality of a profitable video huawei laptop for 46.99 rubles. better prices guaranteed m.video

elbrus has two peaks western and eastern usually tourists tend to reach western because it is higher than 5.642 m. the group started at 2:00 am to a height of 5.100 m. the tourists got on rotraks. the group went further on foot . the so-called saddle is the space between the two peaks of elbrus at a height of 5.642 m.

the tourists reached 10 o'clock in the morning about what happened next, the guide, 28-year-old ilya chuikov, told us he led the tourists to the top. now this young man is a defendant in a criminal case, the group literally in 20 minutes of descent turned from a walking, adequate, vigorous group into participants who absolutely physically could not control your legs. by that time , probably two people were able to walk. as soon as the railing ended due to a strong snowstorm. uh, the guides tied up the participants, we made two bundles out of them, they could not move away from the period, probably even 10 m, due to the same state of health, well-being. uh, both bundles broke first the first one, then literally after 10 seconds it rolled behind it, the second one rolled out onto the saddle. and during this

rolling, one of the participants tried to slow down with a cat, what should i do? well, we can’t say so to this taught and as it turned out. well, below it was confirmed he broke his leg in three places. judging by the words of chuikov , a panic began at the height and among the travelers and among those accompanying no one knew how to act in an emergency situation. chuikov insists that he took all measures to save people. i had a satellite your phone. everyone had some kind of navigators, that is, technical guides were provided, but the problem is that in such a snowstorm. indeed, i have never seen such a snowstorm, but it was impossible to work, because sensors they stopped responding to icy fingers. i just shouted at this satellite. i yelled out our coordinates. i shouted, how many of us are people, where are we and from you rescuers, that is, there was a satellite, but they successfully communicated through it

unsuccessfully, and at that moment we could not understand, but as it turned out, the rescuers did not confirm that there was some kind of signal. it was then that i decided, uh, to start descending and contact the rescuers already from the section called the oblique ledge. this is a section of 5,300 to 500 chuikov's story does not sound very convincing is still not clear. why it was impossible to sound the alarm immediately after the weather turned bad, why did the guides play for time on these questions, the accused and the boxes could not answer. i am the person who took responsibility for this group. who met them there in pyatigorsk, who, let's say, was supposed to return them to this pyatigorsk, no one deliberately tried to harm, who did not save, intentionally there his life, substituting the lives of the participants, so

it's hard for me to say, that is, i am in any case, how guide as a person. i feel responsible for this group. chuikov’s private guide anton nikiforov doesn’t seem to feel guilty, he was also charged and spoke to our film crew . just turned to face the wall. the fact is that the person involved in the criminal case allegedly agreed with one of the federal channels to give exclusive comments just around the corner now all the questions. well , most of the people they let down alive, that is, the client who died, she died almost in front of my eyes. she starts completely according to my

observations, edema began. i'm not a doctor just to give advice. i'm thinking now. yes , in principle, the wind was its own. this was one of the reasons. although i had been there before the weather went, as if there were no more problems climbing. here in this i now myself, as it were, do not shoot. yes, i was wrong in this, this position of the accused guides and lichikov and anton nikiforov however, the sc employees found that the problems began even on the ascent to the top of elbrus, the group reached and in full strength during the ascent of one of the participants, and not makarova became ill, assistant guide igor dankov took the girl back to the base camp. and this helper, uh, turned around and tried to get her down. the rest continued on their way, one of the groups was the first to reach the top and was already at the top literally within 2-3 minutes. well, as everyone

explains, they explain their testimony dramatically began to improve. weather, weather, conditions, wind and guides decided to quickly turn the team around and descend and hit. here are bad weather conditions. why did you come up with all this? version of the investigation climbers confirmed. indeed , the weather began to deteriorate before our very eyes. and that's what one of the rescued tourists dmitry debts says at the top, everything fell down. that's it, they just fell for everything, or i don't know, at least there was some kind of euphoria, but in fact everyone felt bad, but it seemed to me that the guys were somehow very tired. they just lay there and didn't want to get up. anton of all. uh, i picked it up quickly and realized that the wind was still very strong, uh, it literally changed behind these doors for several minutes. yes, the wind changed a lot, because on the rise there was no such strong wind, but on

makarov, which, together with the assistant guide , went down. he felt even worse, according to the words of igor dankov, who accompanied her, the girl lost consciousness and died in his arms, a young man went down alone. at that time, the storm was already raging on the summit. the guides decided to divide the group into two platoons in order to separate those who go slower and those who go faster. the wind is strong, i will try to spread out this stretcher. there, just for six private people, you will carry six, which means they laid me down. you know, the stretcher was laid out and then i hear. listen, they tell him, anton damn it, you yourself or we go. well, now burov drag him. well, it’s generally unrealistic, even if it’s a slope, but you actually have to roll down. basically, i have a hard time understanding them. it's hard to take two or three steps there. here were the forces. they probably left, therefore, well, in general, somehow. and here it begins. ah. anton

just yell at them. here, he shouted straight with a cry, like bring everything. here, like, we are here let's not leave. i turn on my stomach. we begin to help with our hands there and i see, so i raise my head, i see behind us. nastya, the girl who died, is already crawling on all fours. she saw that everyone was here, but right here they were crawling. according to denis vinersky at that time, almost none of the group could move independently, one of the guides. the same ilya chuikov went for help, my group at that moment i took them to the pole on the saddle and got in touch . they said they were finishing the railing. that's how my group was right under the railing, accordingly, believing that they would

come out on them anyway, and it turned out to be big. and here alan and anton were with the group for a long time. and these are really heroes, but in my eyes and there okay, anton is a hero who gathered a group there that stayed with them to the end. which well, really taulana was found with pulmonary edema with uh blind already practically. that is, these are people who, well, until the last could. stay there forever, let's say, the organizers - this climb from the very beginning claimed the cause of death was bad weather, according to the guides, they did everything possible to save the tourists, but were powerless against the elements. the wife of the main accused director of the travel agency, denis

alimova, elena, tried to explain to our film crew how the events on elbrus unfolded . uh, well, the barometer on the clock showed an altitude of 6.220. despite the fact that they were actually at a height, there are 5.300 5.400. this tragedy largely happened due to the fact that there was a quick, sudden, sharp and fatal change in weather conditions. they climbed to the top in fine weather in style , started descending into the sun and blew, a light breeze, and then. and then came a terrible storm. and then they began to save the situation on their own and constantly. we contacted the ministry of emergency situations and there are

records of this in their phones about what they did, outgoing calls from a satellite phone, trying to call for help, but the investigation confidently organizers of the trip could not be unaware of the impending storm. here is what guide assistant igor talkov said before the ascent, he posted a video on his social networks on the eve of the tragedy. good morning snow. tonight at night. we're going to go to the top. the forecast is not very let's see how it will be. yes, winter has already come albrus, on september 3, 2021, in the area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe western peak of elbrus, wind gusts could reach 85

km / h, despite the alarm signals from the hydrometeorological center. denis alimov's private guides nevertheless took a chance and led people to the heights. but an experienced guide, karina mezova, who herself introduces tourists to the mountains, assures that several of her colleagues refused to climb that day, just because of a bad forecast and saved the lives of their clients. here, i have screenshots from the day before when people were making a prediction. uh, photographed the forecast at the top in the morning right from early morning. there was a wind of 50, turning into 75-85 kopecks. that is, you can't was to go. yes, absolutely not, absolutely. of course not. the head of a large travel agency that organizes climbing elbrus, zara mariem, knows everything about the gray local business.

he says that many colleagues care only about profit, and the safety of customers is the last thing they think about . this, in principle, i think, is the problem of our country, that someone has an ip llc registered there as self-employed, and someone just takes uh cash and leads, but now there is not a single law that would clearly regulate this sphere of activity prohibit climbing elbrus the authorities do not have the right the ministry of emergency situations can only warn about the danger, and the police have the right to check. are tour organizers doing business legally ? here is one of the raids by the employees of the department for combating economic crimes of the ministry of internal affairs of kabardino-balkaria, the police arrived at the azau glade from where most of the tour groups start. it is located at the foot of elbrus, there are many hotels, cafes, equipment rentals, and another

group of tourists is preparing for the ascent. so the guide instructor is all so much a group of people there are 10 participants and two guides, so far the group has been prepared. yes, and there will be preparation in the process. david simonyan came from samara until today , he did not go in for mountaineering. for david, this will be the first ascent of elbrus. well, we have all the equipment. something rented something of their own, starting to rally and ending with professional equipment directly. these are cats for trekking poles and so on. everything was shown. today there was a detailed briefing, everything was tried and tested, and now we are rising to new heights now. david, like all other tourists, chose the company for climbing according to reviews on the internet , he paid for the participation in the hike in advance, and when he arrived

at the office of the company in pyatigorsk, he signed a paper that in the event of an emergency no claims to the guide and organizers of the tour, he would not have such novice extreme sportsmen . from year to year. more and more the director of the local market. rauzan guliyeva says that after the pandemic, interest in this place has grown, and the closure of the border has repeatedly affected. this gave impetus to the development of local business, not only tourism, but also trade. something will be here everything for this is. here, even if a person arrives, without anything. in one t-shirt and sneakers, everything he needs for the ascent. here you will find everything. and even the same skier. eh, if he arrives without even winter clothes at all, he will find everything here, everything is at a high level. here alpindustry is for a person of average income. the powers

of the police officers only allow checking the documents from the organizers to make sure that they warned the ministry of emergencies about the weather at the rental points to be certificates for equipment here, for example, they were not there, the owner of the rental promised to find all the necessary papers and bring them to the finish. no one knows how many people climb elbrus every year. and although each group must register with the ministry of emergency situations, indicating the number of participants in the dates of ascent and descent, not everyone does this. detachment do you want to register for the service and officially register by phone is not recommended registration? yes, we are waiting for you to come in. we'll put everything

on record and say the weather forecast. after the descent of the senior group must inform the ministry of emergency situations that all tourists have successfully completed the trip, if there is no such signal at the appointed time and it is impossible to contact the group, then the rescuers. naturally, there is reason to believe that an emergency has occurred and they are immediately put forward to help. according to the ministry of emergency situations of kabardino-balkaria during the 2021 season, 2,421 groups climbed elbrus, which is 19,528 people, 148 times rescuers had to go to help tourists in 2021. on the mountain, 23 people died, six were missing.

these are the official numbers. how many people are actually trying to take the height is unknown; there are tourists who even climb elbrus alone does not warn anyone of such a desperate admirer. our film crew met at the foot of the mountain sergey loginov arrived from the kemerovo region in his native novokuznetsk, works as an air traffic controller climbing elbrus for the fourth time. go out alone or out of the group, usually one which goes up straight at all. and if something happens there, well, you are badly worth a certain training, hypoxic training, there are many different things. well, how would it still look at the weather forecast and cooler, but it's not so simple, of course, well, there is always a risk, there is always a risk. you can't get away from this phone number.

climb feeling when a decent mountain on a mountain. in fact the pinnacle of the feeling, the mountain is impossible to defeat, she is invincible to defeat herself. and this is the feeling. here, in fact, significance, probably, pushes, probably, yes. our reference the first climbers went to elbrus 1931 since then, it has been leading from the statistics of tragic cases. according to it, 121 people died on the top, for comparison, pobeda peak, which is considered to be a more difficult mountain to climb, took 76 lives above elbrus. the most massive was

the death of tourists on elbrus in may 2006, then a group of 12 people climbed to the top due to a sharp deterioration in the weather, they had to stay for a cold night on the saddle, people dug into the snow to escape, one person survived. guys, that's all. the tragedy that occurred on september 23 2021 made us talk again about the need to regulate the sphere of extreme tourism at the legislative level, the management of the balkar republic analyzed accidents in the mountains, namely those related to the death of climbers, and in order to prevent the prevention of such incidents. if management developed a proposal. in particular , this is the attestation of the gits who carry out the climbing as they say, as well as proposals

to make uh activities specifically for mountain tourism licensed, that is, so that accidental persons random companies provide their services, as a rule, these services are provided on a contractual basis, that is , no written contracts are concluded with citizens, respectively , the guides themselves do not have any qualifications, not only in terms of experience in climbing specific ones. peaks, but also experience in saving e-e life in maximum conditions, while only denis alimov, the owner of the elbrus guide company, hunts during the season, and the rest are defendants in the criminal case. ilya chaikov and anton nikiforov are being treated relatives dead tourists vyacheslav borisov anastasia zhigulina irina kolchuk. anna makarova elena nesterova is looking forward to the start of the trial and hopes that the perpetrators will be punished. in the meantime, a group with new tourists

continues to rise to the top of the escort of private guides, their amateur performances, as before, no one controls. climbing elbrus is a dangerous occupation, professional training and experienced water rescuers are required, and the local authorities. today, another task is to urgently put things in order in this industry, to avoid new tragedies. this was our investigation from the republic, kabardino-balkaria and the stavropol territory, conclusions were drawn only to you

. but constant power outages cause rice just anger that's how it happens look? good evening everyone. here we all look at the moat. one so, not everyone
