Athletistic/ Figure Skating. Producer Yana Rudkovskaya, the wife of Evgeni Plushenko, remembered her husband’s injury, which the skater suffered at the 2014 Olympics in Sochi.
“What happened was impossible to predict. After the team tournament, Zhenya signed all the withdrawal documents, all of which have been kept to this day.
And then Mishin, Gorshkov and Mutko, after doping control, said that the situation was hopeless and they had to participate. Zhenya tried to object – he was in terrible pain. And yet he was persuaded,” RT quotes Rudkovskaya.
Rudkovskaya added that if Plushenko did not take off after warming up, but went skating on the program and fell, he would most likely have died on the rink.
