The cause of Galkin's death has been announced
Actor Vladislav Galkin died approximately 74 hours before he was discovered. The cardiac arrest occurred due to acute pancreatitis, according to a group of doctors and pathologists.
The factor leading to cardiac arrest was heart failure. As one of the doctors reported, pancreatitis most likely led to cardiac collapse.
As reported, for the last five days, Vladislav Galkin’s father, Boris, was very worried and feared for his son’s life. According to his father, Vladislav was never in excellent health; family problems, constant workload on the set, and alcohol led to this tragedy.
Let us remind you that on the afternoon of Saturday, February 27, friend famous actor found Vladislav Galkin dead in his Moscow apartment on Sadovo-Spasskaya Street. Cause for concern arose when the actor stopped answering calls from family and friends.
There is still a lot that remains unclear about Galkin’s death.
While inspecting the rented apartment of actor Vladislav Galkin, who died a few days ago, police officers found a note with mysterious content, LifeNews reports.
A green sheet of paper with handwritten text: “Waiting for a call” was found on the actor’s desk. Despite the fact that none of his relatives or friends saw Galkin living in this apartment with anyone, the note indirectly confirms the opposite. The note could have been written by the actor himself to a certain woman who remained in the apartment. It could also be that it was left by someone who left before Galkin woke up, the publication notes. Quotes from today Russian newspapers dedicated to death famous artist, quotes the website "Zagolovki.ru".
The police also seized a leaflet that was stuck on the outside of the front door. It was written on it: “Ilya, builder, 8-915.....”. It seems that this man had an agreement with Galkin about a meeting, however, when he arrived, he did not get through.
Galkin’s close friend, 39-year-old Igor Kostenko, told the police about the last days of his life. On February 25, Igor came to Vladislav along with his father Boris Galkin. “I noticed that Galkin had a bruise under his eye, abrasions on his elbows and drops of blood on the floor,” says Kostenko. “Vlad explained to us that he fell in the apartment when he was very intoxicated. Then Boris Sergeevich and I became his persuade him to undergo treatment for alcoholism."
After this conversation, at approximately 23:30, Galkin Sr. asked him to check on Vlad at least once a day. He gave the key to Vlad’s apartment, and he left for filming.
On February 26, Kostenko came to check on his friend, but could not open the door - it was closed with an internal latch. He called Vlad on his cell phone and home, but no one came.
On February 27, around noon, Kostenko again came to Vlad’s apartment and again could not open the door. Then he called the Ministry of Emergency Situations and the police. Rescuers opened the door and found Galkin dead.
Despite the fact that the preliminary diagnosis of Vladislav Galkin’s death has already been announced (acute heart failure due to chronic inflammation of the pancreas), many mysteries still remain in his death, the publication writes.
In the apartment of the artist, who allegedly died a day and a half before his body was found, forensic scientists found traces of blood.
The actor's body was found in the room. Vlad was lying face down on the floor. In the kitchen, police found an almost empty 0.7-liter bottle of Araspel cognac and two glasses. One is empty, the other contains leftovers tomato juice. Next to them is a small ashtray filled with cigarette butts. Here, in the kitchen, lay the actor’s mobile phone, the second phone was in the room.
As the head told reporters Metropolitan Administration Investigative Committee under the Prosecutor's Office (SKP) of the Russian Federation Anatoly Bagmet, on Monday experts will conduct an autopsy on the body of Vladislav Galkin, RIA Novosti reports.
“There are no grounds to initiate a criminal case. Today, on Monday, an autopsy of the artist’s body will be carried out, which should finally establish the causes of his death,” Bagmet said.
"No sign violent death“We didn’t find the actor,” the UPC representative emphasized. At the same time, he noted that the pre-investigation investigation into Galkin’s death continues.
Let us remember that a month ago Galkin underwent a two-week course of treatment at the Moscow Botkin Clinical Hospital, where he was taken with inflammation of the pancreas. It is possible that the health of the actor, who had previously been seen drinking alcohol more than once, could have been affected by the New Year’s events. Previously, for the same reasons, he had problems with the law.
The actor’s colleagues believe that one of the reasons for Galkin’s sudden death could have been his worries and the media hype about his trial. Let us recall that in December the Presnensky Court of Moscow sentenced Galkin to one year and two months of suspended imprisonment with probationary period a year and a half, having found him guilty of **** gangsterism and resisting police officers.
The artist will be buried on March 2. The farewell will take place from 9 to 12 o'clock on Tuesday in the Great Ritual Hall of the Burdenko Hospital. And the actor will be buried at 15:00 at the Troekurovsky cemetery.
Vladislav Galkin is an Honored Artist of Russia. He starred in 40 films. His film debut was the role of Huckleberry Finn in Stanislav Govorukhin’s film “The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn.” He was nine years old then.

Known to millions of Russians for his roles in the TV series “Truckers,” “Special Forces” and “The Master and Margarita,” he died in Moscow at the age of 39. Doctors suggest that he died a few days ago, and the cause of death was cardiac arrest.
As a representative of the information department told RIA Novosti capital city police department, on Saturday afternoon, relatives and acquaintances of the actor contacted the police, concerned that he was not answering phone calls. “The father called a family friend, who in turn came to the police and, together with employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Emergency Situations, went to Galkin’s apartment. They opened the door. The actor’s body was found in the apartment,” the agency’s interlocutor said.
According to preliminary data, the cause of death was cardiac arrest. “The initial examination of the actor’s body did not reveal any traces of violent death. A number of signs indicate that Vladislav Galkin died as a result of sudden cardiac arrest,” a source in medical circles told RIA Novosti.
Doctors also do not rule out that swelling could lead to cardiac arrest. internal organs, in particular, the pancreas. It was the inflammation of the pancreas, which worsened against the backdrop of New Year's libations and overeating, that caused the actor's hospitalization on January 8 at the Moscow Botkin Clinical Hospital.
In addition, preliminary data from a medical examination of Galkin’s body indicate that he died two or three days ago. “The actor died in his bed, where he was found,” the agency’s source said.
The final cause of death will be determined after an autopsy and forensic examination.
Court and illness
Galkin starred in the films “Voroshilovsky Shooter”, “72 Meters”, the TV series “Truckers”, “Special Forces”, “Station”, “Saboteur”, “Death of the Empire”, “The Master and Margarita” and others. Last job The actor began filming in the television series “Kotovsky” on the channel “Russia 1”.
During the filming of "Kotovsky", on August 5, 2009, a criminal case was opened against Galkin under articles of "hooliganism" and "use of violence against a representative of the authorities." According to the investigation, Galkin on July 23, 2009 in daytime in a cafe in the center of Moscow, in response to the bartender’s refusal to pour him whiskey, he hit the bar counter with a chair. After that, according to investigators, the actor took out a traumatic pistol, fired from it and threatened the bar staff with the weapon. The police officers who arrived at the scene of the incident tried to calm the actor down, but in response, Galkin hit one of them in the face.
The actor was charged with hooliganism and resisting law enforcement officers. At the end of December, the Presnensky Court of Moscow sentenced Galkin to one year and two months of suspended imprisonment with a probationary period of one and a half years. Galkin fully admitted his guilt and expressed remorse for his actions.
During the investigation, Galkin admitted to RIA Novosti that he was shocked by the current situation. “This is the first time I have found myself in such a situation; it is difficult for me to say anything about this,” he said then.
After the end of the process, the hype around the actor did not end.
In January of this year, it became known that Galkin underwent treatment at the Botkin City Clinical Hospital.
Then a source in the medical institution told RIA Novosti that Galkin was hospitalized on January 8 due to inflammation of the pancreas. Doctors prescribed him strict diet and prescribed conservative treatment.
After ten days spent under the supervision of doctors, the actor was discharged home.
Last work
Galkin's last work was the main role in the television series "Kotovsky", work on which was completed in parallel with the trials in the Galkin case. As RIA Novosti was told at the time by Star Media, the process did not interfere with the work, since filming was almost completed, and Galkin himself finished filming a week before the incident.
Filming of the series took place in Yaroslavl. The director of the film is Stanislav Nazirov. The plot of the film, filmed according to the script by Alexander Drugov, is based on the life and circumstances of the death of the Red commander Grigory Ivanovich Kotovsky, which are still shrouded in mystery. Galkin played the role of Kotovsky in the film. The premiere of the series is planned on the Rossiya 1 TV channel in the new season.
Life and creativity
In 1992 he graduated from the Shchukin Theater School, course of Albert Gurov. Vladislav Galkin made his film debut when he was 9 years old - he played the role of Huckleberry Finn in Stanislav Govorukhin's film "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn."

Galkin is an Honored Artist of the Russian Federation, this title was awarded to him in February 2009.
He was married to actress Daria Mikhailova; this is Galkin’s fourth marriage.
He shows confidence that his son was killed, citing the fact that a large sum of money was missing from the apartment. However, investigative authorities did not find confirmation of violent death.
Cardiomyopathy
39-year-old Vladislav Galkin, whose cause of death, officially announced, raises doubts among many, suffered from inflammation of the pancreas and was diagnosed with acute pancreatitis. However, this disease is not fatal, even if it is chronic. The death certificate says: "Died of cardiomyopathy," which means "sudden cardiac arrest."
Pathologists suggest that acute heart failure could occur as a result of alcohol poisoning, since in the blood deceased actor a significant dose of alcohol was detected, more than 3.2 ppm. The version of death from an alcohol overdose, against the background of a general weakening of the body, was considered first. Thus, Vladislav Galkin, whose cause of death for a long time bore signs of uncertainty, was declared dead from heart failure.
What friends said
However, at the insistence of relatives, a criminal case was opened to clarify true reasons death of the actor. Vladislav's close friends told the investigator about his unstable state of mind V lately. However, depression, disappointment, loss of meaning in life - all these factors could become a reason for suicide, but the fact of suicide was not established. Thus, actor Vladislav Galkin, whose cause of death was officially recorded in the relevant documents, died a natural, non-violent death. The honored artist left a worthy legacy for his descendants, these are his roles in films.
First screen tests
Vladislav Galkin, whose biography is not very diverse, was born and raised in the Moscow region, the city of Zhukovsky. The actor's father is Boris Sergeevich Galkin, a famous film actor, his mother is Elena Petrovna Demidova, an actress, film playwright and screenwriter.
The star family gave Vladislav a start in cinema when he was a boy. Grandmother, Lyudmila Nikolaevna Demidova, took her grandson to a screen test. The director liked nine-year-old Vlad and took the boy to play the role of Huckleberry Finn in the film “The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn.”
Young talent
Then the teenager starred in the film “That Scoundrel Sidorov,” in which he played the role of Alyosha Sidorov. This was in 1983. At the age of fifteen, Vladislav starred in another film called “The Golden Chain,” which was directed by Alexander Muratov based on the novel by writer Green. Vladislav Galkin’s roles in films during his youth were distinguished by spontaneity young talent, however, the young actor created quite reliable images of the characters.
Theater Arts School
After school, Vlad entered the College theatrical arts named after Shchukin, and upon graduation submitted documents to VGIK. At the institute, young Galkin studied on the course of Vladimir Khotinenko.
Vladislav Galkin, whose biography opened up new pages, matured early. With all his love for his parents, the young man sought to find personal space. Soon he announced to his parents that he wanted more independence, left home and began to live alone, although he met with his mother and father almost every day, came to visit them and invited them to his place.
Having become a professional actor, Vlad began acting a lot in films, and also periodically took part in theatrical productions. He loved his work, and she loved him in kind - the actor Galkin soon gained fame, and they began to invite him to lead roles. The first truly serious work for him was the character of officer Tamantsev in the film "In August '44." The actor managed to penetrate the spirit of that time, the character he played turned out to be reliable and convincing.
Truckers
Vladislav Galkin's next film work brought him wide fame; it was the TV series "Truckers", in which he played a duet with film actor Vladimir Gostyukhin. Vladislav himself considers this series his finest hour. From the first shots, he organically got used to the image of truck driver Alexander Korovin, whom everyone called “Sashok.”
20 episodes of "Truckers" are separate stories staged in different genres. Among them are action films, thrillers, melodramatic plots and lyrical comedies. During the filming, Vladislav Galkin, the actor, reincarnated countless times. He even came up with a universal suit “for all occasions” in order to change clothes less on the set; these were overalls and a Panama hat. Vladislav’s partner, actor Gostyukhin, changed clothes five times a day, changing jackets, shirts, and T-shirts.
Other films
This was followed by another work - the role of the special forces soldier "Yakut" in the TV series "Spetsnaz", as well as the creation of the image of officer Sergei Vysik, appointed after demobilization from the army to the position of head of the criminal investigation department of one of the Moscow region departments, in the thriller film "Beyond the Wolves" .
In 2004, Vladislav Galkin starred in Vladimir Khotinenko’s film “72 Meters”, playing the role of senior midshipman Mikhailov. In the same year, filming of the TV series “Truckers 2” began. This was a continuation of the adventures of Fedor and Sashka, stretching over 12 episodes.
Director Bortko and actor Galkin
The following year, 2005, director Vladimir Bortko invited Vladislav Galkin to play the role of the poet Ivan Bezdomny in his film "The Master and Margarita" novel of the same name Mikhail Bulgakov. The character was complex; deeply psychological subtext accompanied the role throughout the entire film. The image that Vladislav had to get used to required complete dedication, and most importantly, Ivan Bezdomny was the complete opposite of the truck driver Korovin, so Galkin had to radically rebuild everything life priorities, which he managed to accumulate during the production of "Truckers". I must say that the actor coped with the task brilliantly.
Several films a year
In 2008, Vladislav Galkin took part in the filming of three films at once: the series “I’m Flying,” in which he played the main role, the head of student practice, surgeon Gordeev; in the series "Team Semenov" - the role of police major Andrey Semenov; in the film "An Imperfect Woman", where Galkin played Valery, who has to make a choice between two women.

Alcoholism in the life of Vladislav Galkin
In the acting environment, it is not customary to give up drinking; often vodka or cognac increases the artist’s tone, he opens up, plays with talent and depth. Much depends on the amount of alcohol you drink, because it’s difficult to resist.
In 2009, Vladislav Galkin starred in the film “Kotovsky”. Filming took place in the city of Yaroslavl, and Vlad tried to come to Moscow on weekends. One day, on the way from Yaroslavl, the actor went into a roadside bar, not far from Moscow. He asked for vodka, drank one, then several more glasses. Perhaps he had not yet emerged from the role of Grigory Kotovsky, whom he played on the set. It can be assumed that the actor, like his character, believed that everything was allowed to him, and recklessness folk hero Kotovsky was somehow passed on to him. Galkin lost control of himself and demanded more and more drinks. And when the bartender reprimanded him and refused him another glass of vodka, Vlad became indignant, took out a traumatic pistol and began shooting anywhere. The police were called and tried to subdue the hooligan actor, but to no avail. In the end, Galkin insulted one of the law enforcement officers, hit him several times, and was arrested for this.
Probation
Vlad's father Boris Galkin had to rescue his “unlucky” son from prison. A criminal case was opened regarding disobedience to the police, then a trial was held, and Vladislav Galkin received a year and a half. The sentence, however, was suspended, but the actor became even more popular thanks to this story. However, after all the shocks, prison and trial, Vlad began to get sick. Chronic pancreatitis worsened, the disease continued until the very moment when Vladislav Galkin died. The actor died alone and lay on the floor in his apartment for several days until he was discovered.
Funeral of Vladislav Galkin
On March 2, 2010, after a civil memorial service and farewell, they took place at the Troekurovsky cemetery in Moscow, on the actors' alley. During the funeral, it snowed first, and later the sun came out.
Vladislav Galkin died. What did the actor die from? From vodka or illness, or both, or maybe there was a third reason. The heart stopped, and that says it all...
On February 25, actor Vladislav Galkin passed away. TV screens reported that the artist died of cardiac arrest.
But today the artist’s fans categorically do not believe that he died a natural death. Our publication decided to find out why. 130 thousand dollars disappeared without a trace - Half of Vlad’s face, when he was found dead in the apartment, was blue“,” the actor’s father Boris Galkin said bitterly, “as if he had been beaten for a long time. And there are traces of blood on the walls. Someone was with him in the apartment on that fateful day. It wasn't an accident. Boris Sergeevich mentioned that a large amount of money - more than 130 thousand dollars - disappeared from his son's bank account. Vladislav took it a few days before the tragedy. And this money has not been found to this day. The official version of Vlad’s death is still cardiac arrest. But it is known that the results of a forensic examination revealed a huge amount of alcohol in the blood. Even a hero with iron health could not drink so much.
It’s another matter if vodka and cognac were poured into an already inanimate person in order to cover their tracks. They could have gone too far with the dose. But no one paid attention to this fact. It was as if it was convenient for someone not to find a criminal component. - Could Vladislav Galkin be killed? - argues Rustam Chernov, a lawyer for special cases who has been studying contract killings for more than ten years. “Given the many strange circumstances surrounding this death, I would not rule out this possibility.” In general, it is considered “aerobatics” if one manages to write off the murder as an accident. This is how professionals and intelligence officers usually work. But it is not at all necessary that the actor “crossed the road” big people" Sometimes employees of certain structures carry out “illegal orders” for the sake of earning money. The average price of the service is $20,000. With a guarantee that the customer will not only not be found, but will not even be searched for. Could the actor be killed for money? I don’t know... For the average person, probably $130 thousand is a gigantic amount. But on a global scale, it is not the one for which they kill with the involvement of highly professional killers. In general, most often the reasons lie in a different plane: settling personal scores, or... envy.
Fans of the actor are seriously discussing a more cruel version: the public’s favorite could have been killed by a maniac. And the money that the actor withdrew from the bank the day before could have turned out to be a pleasant bonus, but not the reason for the murder. “Classics of the genre” - the story of the death of the legendary Beatle John Lennon. But there, Mark Chapman, suffering from manic syndrome, “worked” openly. And later he admitted that he was terribly jealous of Lennon. Since childhood, he dreamed of making music, but lacked the talent to become a star. Russian example- the death of Nikolai Rubtsov, who was strangled by his mistress. Later the woman reported that she was terribly jealous of the brilliant poet. “Last Love” is happily married Galkin often played military men. Many people were eager to be friends with him, including serious people from government agencies. Whether one of them could have been jealous of the actor or had personal scores to settle with him, we can now only guess. According to Vladislav’s housemates, two days after his funeral, “some guys came, showed him his papers and told him not to talk too much.” - Does this crime have a chance of being solved? - we asked the lawyer.
According to the law, the protocol version of death can be appealed within twenty years after the death of a person - if there are serious suspicions. This can be done by relatives or their lawyers. But the chances of finding the culprits are minimal. The search for the truth may take more than one year and no one knows how it will end. We were trying to find a woman named Anastasia, who last days was next to Vladislav. The media called her " last love actor." Through her assistant, Anastasia conveyed that she refused to communicate on a topic that was unpleasant for her. Mutual friends from the acting crowd, which includes Nastya, assure: she could not have romantic relationships with Vlad! She has been married for a long time, the family is strong. Most likely, they are convinced that the interaction with the actor was businesslike. The lady runs the production center. Vladislav’s widow, Daria Mikhailova, is also hiding. Fans still cannot forgive her for leaving her husband shortly before his death - she betrayed her. According to some reports, a year ago Daria moved abroad. He comes to Russia occasionally for filming. She recently starred in the TV series “Lyudmila”. They said on the set: Dasha seems to still be in a state of quiet psychosis. The death of the man with whom she lived for more than 10 years came as a shock to her.
Let us remind you that Vladislav’s health was undermined by a scandalous incident in a bar in the summer of 2009. Then the actor, who had been on a spree after a difficult filming, fired at bottles and fought with a police officer. Three years ago, the actor’s father Boris Galkin said: from the very beginning the story looked like a carefully planned provocation. And the bartender and others could have been paid by someone who benefited from morally destroying the artist. Surprisingly, but true - after short time after the incident, the two participants in the “bar scandal” could no longer be found, both seemed to have disappeared. The waiter, on whose shift the emergency happened at the bar, was allegedly laid off at work and left Moscow. And the policeman who was hit by Vlad was transferred to a new duty station. It is noteworthy that the artist still does not have a monument at his grave. At the burial site there is only a marble slab and spruce branches. There is also a bouquet of artificial roses and sunflowers. Two icons: St. Vladislav and the symbolic “Last Supper”.
A children's car-truck with a hand-painted inscription “To Vlad!” looks touching. After all, the actor was made famous by the TV series “Truckers,” and he also had an almost boyish passion for cars. So the fans brought him a car. Several candlesticks, key chains from a car, a St. George ribbon. For Vladislav’s “neighbors” who passed away later than him, relatives and friends long ago installed tombstones. There is a monument to actor Yuri Stepanov, who died in a car accident. The luxurious obelisk belongs to the singer Alexander Barykin, who died in March 2011. Sergei Govorukhin, who passed away at the end of 2011, has a simple obelisk with a star, the kind that was placed for soldiers during the war. Vladislav Galkin’s middle-aged father and mother are not rich people; literally, bit by bit, they collected funds for their son’s funeral, and then for a gravestone. But why don’t those who called themselves close friends of the artist do anything?
Vladislav Galkin’s famous smile, a very open, kind face and charismatic character are the qualities with which the popular actor was able to win the hearts of millions of his fans. Today he is no longer among the living, but the fame and love of his fans are immortal.
Biography and personal life of Vladislav Galkin
The future Honored Artist of the Russian Federation was born on December 25, 1971 in Zhukovsky. His biological father, Georgy Cherkasov, did not participate in the life of Vladislav, who never found out about him. His adoptive father (Boris Galkin - famous director and actor) and mother (Elena Demidova - theater playwright, screenwriter and actress) raised their son together with his sister Masha. But it was his maternal grandmother who was the first to recognize his acting talent in her grandson, who took him to a casting to find actors for the film “The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn.”
It was with the role of Huckleberry Finn staged by Stanislav Govorukhin that the acting biography of our hero began. Vladislav grew up from the age of 17, when he decided to continue his education at a theater university. From this age he became independent from his family and showed himself to be a special connoisseur of freedom.
Since 1998 creative talent our hero began to reveal himself very quickly. Govorukhin’s film “The Voroshilov Shooter” and work with Mikhail Ulyanov on the set became Vladislav’s second baptism as a film artist.
And then followed “In August 44th...” (2001), “Truckers” (2001), “Beyond the Wolves” (2002), “Special Forces” (2002), “The Master and Margarita” (2005), “Saboteur” . The End of the War" (2007), "An Imperfect Woman" (2008) and "Kotovsky" (2009).
The actor's four marriages characterize Mr. Galkin as a seeking and ambiguous person. Svetlana Fomicheva, Elena Galkina and Valentina Elina were unable to play any serious role in the personal life of our hero. And only the fourth wife - actress Daria Mikhailova - was able to create that " magical world", which started them mutual love at first sight. But even in this case, deep feelings could not carry them into eternity.
Cause of death of the actor
To a fatal ending life path movie stars preceded loud scandal in the Moscow cafe "Tiki Bar" with shooting from a traumatic pistol at the bar window and visitors. Then there was a sensational trial and a suspended sentence of 14 months in prison. The events took place on New Year's Eve 2010, when the star was finishing filming the film “Kotovsky”.
After New Year's holidays 2010 Vladislav went to the hospital due to severe pancreatitis. After discharge, he followed a diet and led a fairly quiet lifestyle. However, on February 26, 2010, Boris Galkin, together with rescuers, discovered the two- or three-day-old corpse of his son. Despite the absence of traces of violent death and Boris Sergeevich’s assurances that Vladislav has stopped drinking alcohol, to which he has recently become addicted, today there are rumors about several possible outcomes.
The official version of the medical examiners is heart failure. But, in addition, the possibility of robbery cannot be ruled out, since they were not found in the apartment. a large sum money. And finally, some consider alcohol abuse to be the third option for the actor’s death, since empty vodka bottles were allegedly found next to the body.
