The actor from "Rentaki" Ivan Skichen died due to a chicken bone in his throat - he tried to push it through a wire and tore his esophagus. According to Mesh, the 39-year-old artist had a narrowed esophagus since birth, which is why he underwent more than ten surgeries. When swallowing became even more difficult, Ivan began pushing food with a homemade device made of wire and IV tubing. He choked on a bone and used his method again. After severe chest pains, the actor was hospitalized. The doctors removed the fragments and discovered a deep wound. On November 3, the actor died in intensive care. Ivan Skitsan starred in Nikita Mikhalkov's movie "Burnt by the Sun 2" and the TV series "Margosha".
