The extreme show “Russian Ninja” on the STS TV channel is approaching the finish line. More than hundreds of participants from all over Russia fought for the title of the strongest hero.

Among the daredevils, “Krasny Sever” found two Yamal residents – a multiple winner, medalist of Russian and international rock climbing competitions Dinara Fakhritdinova, as well as the champion of Russia and Europe in cross-country skiing Ruslan Alisoltanov. Both athletes are from Gubkinsky.

The show was filmed in the fall in Sochi, the track was created in the Olympic Park near the Fisht stadium. To reach the final, the participants must pass the most difficult tests.

For a height of 152 cm leading named Dinar “Thumbelina”. Severyanka represented Tyumen at the show, reached the fourth stage – “Triple span”, where she did not jump to the structure, where she had to catch on, and flew into the water. Warm or cold she was, at that moment the girl did not even understand. Although filmed in a cone and in Sochi it was pretty cool.

– I then absolutely did not think about the cold, I was most offended by the fall, and I don’t remember what water was at that moment. “It was necessary to fly from the trampoline to the ledge, but I did not cope with this test,” Dinara Fakhritdinova laments.

The countryman Ruslan Alisoltanov was filming for The Russian Ninja, the northerner accidentally learned from her friend, the Tyumen rock climber Stanislav Kokorin.

Ruslan and Stanislav are participants in the first edition of the show. Both guys showed the best results in passing all the obstacles of the qualifying stage.

For this, the organizers sent them for an additional Leader Race – this season’s innovation. Stanislav Kokorin won the duel confrontation and, bypassing the semifinal stage, went directly to the final of the “Russian Ninja”. The Gubkin athlete had to overcome the tests of the semi-final selection, but, alas, he fell off on the very last element of the “Cornice” and dropped out of the race like Dinara.

As the “Krasny Sever” methodology, Ruslan Alisoltanov has already participated in the “Russian Ninja” twice. The first time he tested his physical prowess was in 2018. Then the show was shown on Channel One, but for some reason it was the Yamal’s passage that remained behind the scenes.

– Three years ago, the casting took place in Yekaterinburg, and somehow everything was forgotten. Two weeks before the shooting, they called me that I had passed the selection, I had to actively participate in the training process. Then I managed to get to the semifinals, where I also fell into the water in the last type of tests, – Ruslan Alisoltanov said.

Information has already appeared in the media that the skier intends to participate in this show again.

In total, seven qualifying episodes were filmed in the last season, it was shown in November 2021. The final will take place on January 10th. The winner is waiting for five million rubles.
