His story ended tragically.
Today, few will be able to quickly name famous Soviet stuntmen. However, this does not mean at all that there were no artists of such specialization.
One of the most talented actors performing dangerous stunts was Talgat Nigmatulin. Thanks to his will and strong character, he was able to earn the recognition of the public and colleagues on the set. And his most successful works were “Pirates of the XX century” and “Wolf Pit”. The brave brunette was called the Soviet Bruce Lee and predicted a bright career for him. But it all ended in the 80s.
The stuntman became a member of an organization in which there were representatives of creative professions. However, it turned out that this is just a sect, and its leaders are real criminals. Once Talgat was forced to extort money from recalcitrant people, but the artist immediately refused this. The organizers did not like this much, and soon Nigmatulin was found dead. And all those involved in the terrible atrocity went to serve their sentences in prison.
