you tell me just now there is no one in the office to meet you, it was just a little uncomfortable position, there are cathedral 20, yes. with us, we usually try to recreate the story of the one who climbed elbrus, the program included many stages at the beginning of several days of acclimatization, some tourists refused to travel. 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, they all considered themselves experienced

climbers who have climbed elbrus more than once were familiar to them. if you get the jews out of here, we'll introduce you to the rank. this is the front line. this is where to bring it from the director-liquidation. keep what it is remember, we never lost it, even in the worst times no one does. they pray meet. here's the infusion, they've been praying for it for 2,000 years. and how will the groom be in hebrew? you do not know, want two who shoot together? wants to throw.

elbrus has two peaks western and eastern usually tourists tend to reach the western because it is higher than 5.642 m. they move

out at night to meet the sunrise above and take beautiful photos for memory. this time was no exception from the base camp, the group started at 2:00 am to a height of 5100 m. the tourists got to the crayfish. further on foot. the group has overcome the so-called saddle in the space between the two peaks of elbrus to a height of 5.642 m. the tourists arrived at 10 o'clock in the morning. the guide, 28-year-old ilya chuikov, told us what happened next, he led tourists to the top. now this young man is a defendant in a criminal case literally for 20 minutes of descent turned from a walking adequate group of participants who absolutely physically could not control themselves with their legs. by that time there

were two. as soon as the railing ended due to a strong snowstorm. uh guides tied up the participants. we made two bunches of them and could not move away from the pass, probably 10 m. somehow, due to the same state of health there, as well as well-being. both bundles fell off first, the first, then literally after 10 seconds it rolled behind it, the second rolled out onto the saddle. and during this rolling, one of the participants tried slow down with a cat. what to do? we can't say that's how they taught it. and as it turned out, well, it was confirmed below that he broke his leg in three places. judging by the words of chuikov , panic began at the height and among travelers and among those accompanying no one knew how to act in an extreme situation because 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, and the problem is that i didn’t see such a snowstorm and such a snowstorm, it was impossible to work, because the sensors didn't stop responding. i was just shouting sputnik, i was shouting our coordinates. i shouted, how many of us are people, where are we and from you rescuers the companion was. we communicated through it successfully, unsuccessfully at that time, we could not understand, but as it turned out, the rescuers did not confirm that there was some kind of signal. that's when i made a decision, and start descending and contact the rescuers already from the site, which is called the oblique ledge. this is a plot of 5.300 to 5.100. chuikov does not sound very convincing is still not clear. why not was to sound the alarm immediately after the weather turned bad, why the guides were playing for time

on these questions the defendants and the cell could not answer. i am the person who took responsibility for this group. who met pyatigorsk there, who, let's say, had to return them to this category, no one deliberately tried to harm, who did not intentionally save there in his life, substituting the lives of the participants. i am responsible for this group, i feel guilty. and here is a colleague of ilya chuikov, private guide anton nikiforov doesn't seem to feel guilty he was also indicted talking 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. give exclusive comments for a fee.

it turns out you made a mistake. now all the questions to pushed back. 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, the edema has begun. i'm not a doctor just to give recommendations. i'm thinking now. yes, in principle there was a wind, it was one of the reasons. although i had been there before the weather went, no matter how higher the problems were. this is where i am now, as it were. well, yes. i was wrong about this, this position of the accused guides and anton nikiforov’s personal i. however, the employees from the ska found that the problems began even on the ascent to the top of elbrus

, the group got there and in full strength during the ascent of one of the participants, and not makarova , became ill, assistant guide igor dankov, led the girl back to the base camp. and this one assistant e, turned around and undertook to lower it down the tile. the rest continued on their way, one of the groups got the first one and was already at the top literally within 2-3 minutes. well, as everyone explains, uh, they explain their testimony, the weather began to fluctuate sharply, weather, conditions, wind and the guides decided to quickly deploy the team and descend and hit. why did all this come up with the participants of the ascent, indeed pogodina's brow was deteriorating literally before our eyes. and this is what one of the rescued tourists, dmitry dolgov, says, the guys are on top of everything

fell down, everyone just rolled over everything, or i don’t know, at least there was some kind of euphoria. in fact, everyone felt bad, but it seemed to me that the guys were somehow very tired. here they are just laying around. and they didn't want to get up. anton picked everyone up, quickly realized that the wind was still very strong. uh changed literally in those two few minutes. yes, the wind changed a lot, because there was no such strong wind on the rise , and on makarov, who, together with the assistant guide, went down, he felt even worse, according to the words, igor dankov, who was accompanying her, the girl lost consciousness and died in his arms , a young man was descending alone at that time, at the top, the storm was already raging in full swing kida 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'll try to

spread out this stretcher. there you will carry it for just six people, which means they put me on this stretcher and spread it out and then i hear it. listen, anton is generally unrealistic down there. it’s hard to do it down there. listen, this is where i start. a anton just yell at them. here, he shouted directly with a cry, like bring everything. like, we're not leaving him here. 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 began to go. here is ah. that's right here half-commercial at that

time, almost no one from the group could move independently one of the guides. the same ilya chuikov went for help, my group at that time i led them to the pole on i contacted the saddle before i went i contacted anton i contacted the talent, more precisely, to their location. they said they were finishing the railing. so my group was right under the railing. accordingly , you believe that they are in any case. they come out and they did. and here talent anton was with the group for a long time and these are really heroes, well, in my eyes, the hero who gathered the group there, who stayed with them to the end. which well , really taulana was found with pulmonary edema with uh, almost blind already. that is, these are people who, well, until the last could.

stay there forever, let's say the organizers claimed the cause of death was bad weather, according to the guides, they did everything possible to save the tourists, but they were powerless against the elements. the wife of the main accused director of the travel agency , denis alimov, elena tried to explain to our film crew how the events on elbrus developed. the storm arose from nowhere, flew in with great force and the pressure dropped very sharply. uh, one of our guides here said, that his watch e showed. um, well, the barometer on the clock showed altitude 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 went to the top in great weather in style and started to descend in the sun and there was 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 went in touch with the ministry of emergency situations and about this they have records in their phones about what they did, outgoing calls from a satellite phone, trying to call for help, but the investigation is confident that the organizers of the campaign could not have been unaware of the impending storm. here is what food assistant igor talkov said before the ascent, he posted a video on his social networks on the eve of the snowy

morning tragedy. tonight at night. we're going to go to the top. the forecast is not very good, let's see how it will be in the winter of 2021 in the region of the western summit of elbrus, wind gusts could reach 85 km / h, despite the alarms. 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 e 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. i mean , you couldn't go. yes, absolutely not, absolutely. of course not. supervisor 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 the cash and leads, but now there is not a single law that would clearly regulate this area of ​​activity to prohibit climbing elbrus the authorities have no right the ministry of emergency situations can only

warn of danger, and the police have the right check whether the tour organizers conduct business activities? 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 guests here, equipment rental cafes, another group of tourists is preparing for the ascent. so the instructor is the guide as long as the group of people goes 10 participants and two guides, so far the group has been prepared. well, yes, well, it will be in the process preparation. 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

was rented. something of its own begins with the professional equipment of this cat and so on. tourists chose according to reviews on the internet to participate in the trip paid in advance, and when i arrived at the office of the company in pyatigorsk, i 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 people. from year to year. more local market director. rauzan guliyeva says that after the pandemic, interest in this place was repeatedly affected by the closure of the border of local businesses, not only tourism.

everything for this is here. here, even if a person arrives, without anything. in one t-shirt and in sneakers, everything that he needs for you to walk. here you will find everything. and even the same skier. eh, if he comes, too, without even winter clothes at all, he will find everything, everything is here at a high level. here alpindustry is for a person of average income. powers of police officers they only allow you to check the documents with the organizers to make sure that they warned the ministry of emergencies about the weather; rental points should have certificates for equipment here, for example, they were not there, the rental owner 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. hello, this is a squad in russian, i'm listening to you. do you want to register? no, i would like to come to the service and formally register by phone registration is not recommended. yes, we are waiting for you to come in. everything let's put the weather forecast on record, say, after the descent of the senior group, i must inform the ministry of emergency situations that all the tourists have safely 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 are reasons to believe that an emergency has occurred and they are immediately put forward to help, kabardino-balkaria for

the 2021 season climbed elbrus 2,000 421 groups, which is 19,000 528 people 148 times rescuers had to go to help tourists in 2021, 23 people died on the mountain. 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 on elbrus, he went for the fourth time. one year i don’t

understand at all, one at all. and if something happens there, well, a certain training precedes, hypoxic training of all sorts of different things, well, how would the whole island look at the weather forecast and cooler just, of course, well, there is always a risk. so you deliberately go to this rice? why? well, try to go down and you yourself will understand everyone, climb the mountain and you will understand . this is the feeling when the mountains stand, as if on a mountain, at the very top, the feeling does not grieve for victory, the mountains cannot be defeated. she is invincible to defeat herself. and this is the feeling. here, in fact,

significance, probably, pushes you, probably there. we went to elbrus in 1931. since then, it has been leading with statistics of tragic cases. according to it , 121 people died at the top, for comparison, pobeda peak, which is higher or a bar and is considered more difficult to climb, the king took 76 lives of tourists on elbrus in may 2006, then a group of 12 a man 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 save one person. the tragedy that occurred on september 23, 2021 forced

to talk again about the need to regulate the sphere of extreme tourism at the legislative level in the management of the balkar republic, an analysis was made of accidents in the mountains, namely, those related to the death of climbers. ah, in order to prevent the prevention of such incidents by the investigative department. in particular, this is the certification of guides who carry out the climbing by citizens, as well as proposals to make e-e activities specifically for mountain tourism licensed, that is, so that random people and random companies cannot provide their services, as a rule, these services are provided on a contractual basis, that is, citizens enter into any written contracts without any qualifications. not only in terms of experience. ascent to specific peaks, but also experience in saving lives under maximum conditions, while only denis

alimov, the owner of the elbrus company, hunts during the season, and the rest are defendants in the criminal case. ilya chuikov and anton nikiforov are being treated by relatives of the deceased 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 of new tourists continue to climb to the top, accompanied by private guides, their amateur performances, as before, no one controls. climbing elbrus is a dangerous activity . professional training and experienced guides are required

rescuers a from the local authorities. today, another urgent task is to restore order in this industry, to avoid new tragedies. this was our investigation from the republic, kabardino-balkaria and the stavropol territory , conclusions were made only by you. see you on the russia 24 tv channel. we urgently need to do this, only we will

listen to two. eat

or just gena gardener? this apartment is your big business.
