Title: The man who died during World Sauna Championship
Post by: Cleanest Natural on September 10, 2010, 06:41:47 AM
The 2010 Sauna World Championships ended in tragedy when one of the two finallists collapsed and died. Vladimir Ladyzhenskiy, a Russian amateur wrestler in his 60s, suffered severe burns in the bizarre annual event in the southern Finnish town of Heinola. He was pronounced dead later after he collapsed alongside reigning champion Timo Kaukonen of Finland roughly six minutes into the final round.

The 'sport' calls on participants to sit in a 225-degree (110 Celsius) room as water was tossed onto a searing stove. Medical workers pulled both men out of the sauna in front of nearly 1,000 horrified spectators.

The event, which had over 130 participants from 15 countries, had been held since 1999. It will never be held again. (http://www.oddee.com/_media/imgs/Quickee/q1044.jpg)

Ladyzhensky's autopsy concluded that he had died of third-degree burns. His death was aided by his use of strong painkillers and local anesthetic grease on his skin. Kaukonen was competing according to the rules.


Yikes.

Well, he got his fair share of painkillers afterwards, when all his skin peel of. He also left his mark in history books, because there is new synonym for overwhelming stupidity in the Finnish vocabulary: "Sauna Timo". If we need to describe incredible tool by few words, we say "He is kind of Sauna Timo" and everybody knows what it means  ;D

Like I said before...he didn't win.  He got DQ because he had to be carried out.  Rules state that you have to walk out under your own power.  So they both got nothing for it. 


Fortunately, health coverage in Sweden is covered.
