A Russian singer accused of donating to the Ukraine army and calling President Vladimir Putin an “idiot” fell to his death from a window this week — just moments after authorities raided his apartment.

Vadim Stroykin, 58, plunged to his death from the 10th floor of his St. Petersburg apartment building on Wednesday after cops came to interrogate him about the alleged donations and other claims of extremism, local news outlet Fontanka reported.

Authorities said the British-educated musician and radio host was last seen alive when he went to his kitchen to get water during the police search, according to the outlet.

Looks like Putin hacked the password for Hillary Clinton's private suicide hotline.

With the Clinton Foundation sloppy accounting Elon Musk and DOGE will probably uncover the the hotline payments before Hillary does.

Gravitationally changed, I believe is the term you are referring too. Odd it’s such a Russian thing eh?

[marcusmaximus]

Gravity poisoning.

What an amazing coincidence.

These Russian critics of Putin all seem to suffer from a lack of coordination when they're in high places, don't they?

Yes, thank you. Yeah, you would think Putin’s critics would start renting ground floor apartments now.

“Russian windows are a problem”

Also Russian helicopters are a problem.

It’s raining (Russian) men.

The window thing is definitely their go-to.

....and the best we have here is Senate stairs......

Russian “hive” buildings tend to multi-story. Handy for Kremlin elite when polonium becomes expensive.

Seems to me that any apartment higher than the third floor should rent at a pretty fair discount over there.

I am picturing a Russian ordinance storage facility. Other countries might have bullets or mortar shells, or other kinds of things that explode, stacked up and categorized. In Russia, there would also be a room full of glass window panes.

Note: when in Russia do not use the sidewalks near tall buildings. You never know what might be falling.

What tune was he singing during the fall?
