Refuse bad habit quite difficult, you need to have a strong desire and incentives. Everyone decides for themselves what is really important and meaningful to them. Artists who died from alcoholism could have been happy family men and role models. But they chose a different path, in which there is always a bottle of alcohol.

In the USSR there were many celebrities and heroes whom people wanted to be like, imitate, and admire. But the lives of these people had their own difficulties, they were slowly sliding into the abyss... We present to you famous people Soviet Union who were destroyed by alcohol.

Alexey Stakhanov. On August 31, 1935, Stakhanov’s record was set - during his shift he produced 102 tons of coal, exceeding the norm by 14 times, and in September of the same year he increased the figures to 227 tons.

Naturally, the worker was hit with popularity and unexpected material goods, the load of which Stakhanov could not bear.

Alexey began to suffer from delusions of grandeur, began to drink regularly, lost his party card in a drunken fight and married a minor. The authorities, of course, hid this from the public, and therefore the social hero got away with everything.

Outwardly, the miner's career was quite prosperous: in 1936-1941 he studied at the Industrial Academy in Moscow, and in 1941-1942 he became the head of mine No. 31 in Karaganda.

In 1943-1957, Stakhanov held the position of head of the socialist competition sector at the People's Commissariat of the Coal Industry of the USSR in Moscow, and lived in the famous “House on the Embankment.”

After the death of Stalin, who patronized him, in 1957, on the orders of N.S. Khrushchev, he was returned to the Donetsk region, where he had to rent a corner and then live in a hostel for several years.

The miner took the incident seriously and began to drink even more.

Since 1974, Stakhanov retired, and three years later he died at the 72nd year of his life in a mental hospital, where he ended up from the severe consequences of chronic alcoholism ( multiple sclerosis with partial memory loss, delirium tremens), and had previously also suffered a stroke.

He slipped on an apple skin, hit his head and died without regaining consciousness.

Georgy Yumatov. The star of the films "Officers", "Admiral Ushakov" and "They Were First" always drank more than usual.

On March 6, 1994, in the 75th apartment of house No. 5 on Chernyakhovsky Street, while intoxicated, the actor shot and killed a janitor who was helping the actor bury his beloved dog with a hunting rifle. According to witnesses, he insulted Yumatov, insisting that it would be better if the Germans won the war.

As a result, the actor was acquitted. After leaving prison, he was diagnosed with an abdominal aortic aneurysm, which developed as a result of alcoholism. He had surgery. After some time, hemorrhage occurred in the stomach. The actor refused hospitalization.

Directors, afraid inappropriate behavior, they stopped calling the actor to act in films. Yumatov began attending church and even finally stopped drinking, but his health was already completely undermined: on October 4, 1997, the abdominal aorta ruptured with a fatal outcome.

Yuri Bogatyrev. The actor became a star after his role in the film “A Friend Among Strangers, a Stranger Among Our Own.”

Bogatyrev’s money did not linger, but in last years During his life, he also became addicted to alcohol.

He tried to solve all his problems with alcohol. Yuri developed depression and started taking antidepressants.

Oleg Dal. The actor drank heavily almost all his life, for this reason he was eventually even kicked out of the Moscow Art Theater.

Friends and colleagues noticed that he looked recent months Oleg's life was very bad, he was in a state of nervous and physical exhaustion.

The actor understood that he would abuse alcohol and tried to overcome his predisposition to alcohol.

Oleg Dal died on March 3, 1981 in a hotel room, during a creative business trip in Kyiv, at the age of 39.

According to the widespread version, the cause of death was a heart attack due to the use of alcohol, which was contraindicated for the patient, who was “wired up” with an anti-alcohol capsule.

Georgy Burkov. Beloved by many even for his episodic roles, the Soviet actor died at the age of 57.

The official cause of death was a detached blood clot.

By that time, Georgy Burkov’s health was severely undermined by alcohol.

"The life of alcoholics is very close to the life of animals. In in a good way. In the morning, my dears, they are busy looking for drinks. If they drink, they start talking, pleasant or unpleasant, but it’s still not real. Game of human life: with problems, with worries, with joys. Then search again. And so all day,” Burkov wrote in his book.

According to the recollections of relatives, after autopsy of the actor’s body, the doctors said: “How did he even live with such vessels…”.

Nikolay Eremenko. The real reason The actor's death became known not so long ago; before that it was believed that he died of a stroke.

According to another version, Eremenko Jr. was killed by another binge. The actor could not allow himself to relax even in the company of close people and was constantly in nervous tension, escaping from it in alcohol.

At the time of his death, his wife Lyudmila was with him, who did not even pay attention to the fact that her husband was in an unconscious state, since it was already familiar.

The artist’s friends panicked, but it was too late; Nikolai died in hospital at the age of 52.

Nikolay Cherkasov. The performer of the heroic roles of Alexander Nevsky and Ivan the Terrible in the films of Sergei Eisenstein never went on stage without drinking a couple of glasses.

In the theater he worked with early years, that’s when I started drinking as a habit. IN Civil War The actor’s close friends and relatives died, so alcohol helped him forget.

Subsequently, the actor drank even during breaks between takes; according to him, this was the only way he could open up. The artist died from alcohol.

Petr Aleinikov. The actor became a star of Soviet cinema after the role of Savka from the film "Tractor Drivers" and the image of Emelya from the fairy tale "The Little Humpbacked Horse", filmed by the famous Soviet storyteller Alexander Rowe.

In the last years of his life, the actor drank heavily and had serious problems with health.

Victor Kosykh. The actor's star role is Danka in The Elusive Avengers.

In recent years, his life was not very successful; the man drowned his depression in alcohol. The examination showed that Kosykh was killed by a lethal dose of alcohol.

Kosykh’s body was discovered by an acquaintance of his. The man called an ambulance, but the actor was already dead.

An autopsy showed that due to huge amount After drinking alcohol the day before, Kosykh suffered a cerebral hemorrhage.

Oleg Efremov. Everyone’s favorite artist struggled with alcohol and nicotine addiction all his life and lived long life for a person with similar habits.

A heavy smoker, Efremov did not give up tobacco, even while experiencing excruciating pain. His general condition only worsened due to alcoholism, the actor began to go blind, and problems with the heart and blood vessels appeared.

Due to thrombosis, Oleg Nikolaevich’s leg was cut off, and Efremov spent the last years of his life with a special device that forcibly ventilated his lungs. On May 24, 2000, at the age of 72, the actor died.

Both drinking alcohol and using drugs does not lead to anything good. There is no such person yet who would rejoice at the consequences of alcohol.

And among those who suffered from alcohol addiction, too many people got serious illnesses or even died.

Many celebrities could live much longer if they had not started drinking alcohol. Why is this happening? Let's figure it out.

Alcoholism is a disease of modern society

We often don't think about how many people have died from this addiction. On this moment Russia's statistics are simply amazing.

About 30% of all deaths occur in alcohol addiction.

And you probably don’t know or have any idea how many fatal crimes occur due to the fault of alcohol.

Why do celebrities become drunkards?

Many creative personalities And popular people often experience crises in their lives, professional activity. The constant ups and downs of career, fans, personal life and everything else are imposed on a celebrity to a greater extent than on an ordinary person.

After all, these are public people, which means their fans tirelessly follow their lives. And while some people relieve stress with a glass of wine once a week, others have to do it every day.

There is even an opinion that actors and other artists drink more than people in other professions. And they themselves agree with this.

Reasons for celebrity drinking:

• Loss of inspiration. Quite often, actors and singers may drink a little before a performance. They claim that it relaxes and “unlocks” talent. But this can also lead to alcohol addiction. Naturally, some people also drink after the concert to relax.
• Alcohol gifts from fans. When you become famous, you get recognition from your fans. Stars often receive flowers, chocolates and, of course, alcoholic products. Some invite them to their banquets, performances and other events.
• Stress relief. Famous people always have a lot of work and other various projects, especially often at night. Concerts, banquets, performances, recordings of songs and videos and much more. Artists very often get tired of such a schedule, become depressed and begin to become addicted to the bottle.

Alcohol really relaxes and they are increasingly becoming addicted to this method of stress relief. Moreover, fans always give good alcohol, which means this can go on endlessly.

Actors who died due to alcoholism:

1. Vladimir Vysotsky. He left after Dahl. He was addicted to alcohol and drugs, but did not have time to undergo treatment and undergo code treatment due to heart problems. For this reason he died.
2. Georgy Yumatov. The actor drank heavily and a lot, once even killed a man in this state. He underwent a severe operation on the abdominal aorta and died two years later from its rupture.

6. Yuri Klinskikh. I was never a teetotaler and suffered from drug and alcohol addiction. According to the official version, he died of heart problems.
7. Yuri Bogatyrev. Fame came to him in the Soviet Union, after which he began to receive money and immediately spend it on alcohol. Alcohol addiction developed, and they stopped inviting him to act in films. The lack of demand in his profession led him to an even greater addiction to alcohol. He died at the age of 41 from acute heart failure.
8. Isolda Izvitskaya. It's time to talk about actresses. In Soviet times, she was quite popular, but her luck and fame played a cruel joke on her. She was in love with her husband, who suffered from alcohol addiction. Later, the actress herself began to drink with him. Because of this, she lost her job, and later her husband, who left her for someone else. After all this, Isolde finally fell into depression, lost hope of returning to the film industry and drank herself to death. She died at 38 years old.
9. Nikolay Cherkasov. The actor who brilliantly played Nevsky in famous film. According to him, he never went on stage without drinking a glass.
10. Petr Aleinikov. He acted in films a lot and is quite famous in the USSR. Died at 50 years old.

Our idols, of course, are not all perfect. Many of them have serious flaws, and often those that their fans should not use on themselves. This includes alcoholism.

Celebrities have a pretty hard job, it involves a lot of stress and impact. Yes, and critics public people more than enough. Therefore, it is doubly difficult for them. In this case, falling asleep is not at all difficult.

Which of the modern stars has an alcohol addiction, is he struggling or not, and is he planning to undergo treatment?

7. Mikhail Efremov. He doesn’t hide his addiction, but he doesn’t do anything to get rid of it. He says he drinks for the hangover. This allows him to play as much as a particular role requires of him.

It often happens that a celebrity is able to be brought out of an unrelenting binge. They were helped by relatives, friends, lovers or fans. But they, unlike their drunken colleagues, managed to get off this path in time.

They all deserve respect in this regard, because getting out of such a severe addiction is quite difficult. This requires will, perseverance, and a desire to improve. Some of them were helped by close and dear people.
