A young YouTuber from Russia has made an extreme attempt to jump from the top of a building to another with a car. The plan failed, the vehicle crashed into the structure and fell, causing dramatic scenes and questions about the dangers of seeking audiences.
A Russian stuntman survived an extreme stunt that went horribly wrong. The YouTuber Evgeny Chebotarev tried to jump from a roof to another building with a vehicle, but fell straight to the ground. Miraculously, he got out walking.
The maneuver that almost ended in tragedy
The video was published by Evgeny in August 2023. In the footage, the YouTuber accelerates a white Lada Niva towards a ramp. The plan was bold: jump from one building to another.
But the result was disastrous. The vehicle did not reach the other roof and crashed into the side of the building.

He then fell about 15 meters to the ground. Friends of the stuntman, who were watching the scene, panicked, fearing that something more serious could happen.
The vehicle was completely destroyed. However, Evgeny managed to get out of the wreckage on his own. He appeared to have only minor injuries, considering the severity of the crash.
Minor injuries and an impressive recovery
The stuntman shared images of the destroyed vehicle and showed an x-ray of his leg.
He had some bleeding, but did not appear to have suffered any fractures. He also did not need a cast and was able to walk carefully.
Evgeny is no stranger to dangerous stunts, but this attempt was a bit too much. Despite the scare, he still smiled for the camera.
A clear warning
The images are impressive, but they do provide a warning. Don't try to imitate this type of action. Even with experience, the risk is very high. Jumping off a roof with a vehicle is not only dangerous — it can be fatal.
Evgeny was lucky. Much luckier than one would expect in situations like this.
