AT LOVE WIDTH, ON THE HATRED LONGITUDE.
AT LOVE WIDTH, ON THE HATRED LONGITUDE.
It did not become "last hero", but has returned from other end
Light to native Balashikha born anew.
Heroes, as is known, are not born, and become. Especially
If it is a question of that "last hero", which so honourable
Rank has received on a desert island in Caribbean sea.
Yes, we have only just learnt a name of this lucky beggar and the rich man.
After all to a rank to it have handed over a monetary prize at a rate of 100 thousand
Dollars and 00 cents.
To find out details of this teleproject (the persistent went
Hearings as if no Caribbean sea is present, and show acts in film on
"Mosfilm"), "Moskovia" has met one of participants
"Last hero" - the inhabitant of Balashikha Hope Semenovoj. On
Island in extreme conditions it has held on 21 day.
The winner made a noise became on Saturday evening known
The island project. He is Sergey Odintsov from Kursk. Last
The hero who has become first. Behind thousand n miles, miriady
Absolutely killed nervous cages, hundred thousand spent dollars and
Video film kilometres. It would Seem, today, after many series
The project, about a life of voluntary islanders all is known.
But the videocamera objective, whatever shirokougolnym it was, not
Can contain everything, that it was possible to go through to our heroes. Much
Remains behind a shot. And today about it, only for "MosKovii",
The unique representative of the Moscow area in it tells
The project - the inhabitant of Balashikha Hope SEMENOVA.
Semenova Hope Stanislavovna, the doctor-stomatologist, 38 years. In
Present time - the director of the stomatologic centre. It the woman
Today: builds own house, puts a cherry garden and
Brings up the son.
- Tell, how you in general were got involved in this adventure?
- Absolutely casually. My acquaintance passed the next
Selection round on this game - dreamt to get to the project. I, that
To kill time, has gone together with it on testing. And only there
Suddenly I learn about "Last hero". What? Where? To Panama on island?
To Caribbean sea? I too want. In general, I have filled questionnaires,
Has passed test. As a result of me took in the command, and it
No.
- And you have run at once to pack a suitcase...
- Well, first, to pack there was especially nothing. On conditions
The project we could take with ourselves only a tooth-brush and paste, change
Linen, to steam of trousers, shirts. Well still any personal thing. I
Took an umbrella, and its mechanism has at all rusted in couple of days. And
The umbrella should be thrown out.
And secondly, that have enlisted me in the command, yet
Meant, that I can here so all to throw and go on another
The planet party. At me serious duties at job, and here
It is necessary to be ready to depart nearly for 60 days. Then - I live in
To family with which opinion too it is necessary to be considered. Mum,
For example, as has learnt about flying away - nearly in tears: it is swindle! You
Will sell in the public house! Has calmed down, only when it was convinced,
That behind this project there are known enough people of the Russian
TV.
- What represented selection?
- Psychologists, experts of the Ministry of Emergency Measures were engaged in it. Were necessary 16
Psychotypes. At first there were 5000 candidates, then 62, then 24 and
At last there were 16 participants of game. I at first was surprised, having seen,
That those who could are eliminated also, really as Robinzon,
To hold on in any conditions. Has then understood - in game should
To participate not supermasters of a survival, and usual people, which to
To the same kinogenichno would be looked on the telescreen.
- That is jugglings and fraud was not?
- Yes, I in it am assured. Though different hearings went. Spoke
Even, that Inna - for the sake of it all it, say, becomes the winner and
Have stirred up. But it vraki. Game was fair. And I was convinced of it
On own skin. I mean stings of mosquitoes and other
Tropical creatures.
- How you reached these mosquitoes?
- It was a surprising route: Moscow - Amsterdam - Kosta -
Rika - Ecuador - Panama. Flied everyone in itself. It was
It is contractual. The contract - in general special multipage
The piece, there has been painted everyone ours chih and a step. On conditions
The contract, by the way, we had no right to communicate with journalists. For
"MK" project heads, probably, have made an exception.
And so. To Panama have arrived at late night. While have taken places
In hotel, have made toilet - already and morning on a nose. In half
The seventh lifting, buffet - and in a truck. To tell the truth,
We believed, that couple of days will give on acclimatisation. But here already
We have a seat in samoletik which flies to area where we settles down
Archipelago. Have taken away our small suitcases, have given out in exchange rjukzachki,
Have set on a boat - and forward, on island.
The island Bokas-del-Toro is located in gulf Moskitos, for
Which Caribbean sea begins. It is territory of Panama, which
Is famous for export of shrimps and the bananas delivered in basic in
The USA. Here a hot subequatorial climate that means
Mad heat, bad humidity and the frenzied blood-thirsty
Insects.
- ... And judging by photos, it is a heavenly spot...
- Paradise it seems only on fair brochures. And so -
Climate not for the nervous. Strong humidity, a heat. Besides we
Have got there to a season of rains and storm.
So. On game conditions, we desantiruemsja in water in 150-200
Metres from coast. We should float and push before ourselves
Bamboo raft on which we are combined rjukzachki and boxes with
Poor set of stock and tools. Like trifling business.
But here it is found out - one to float plainly is not able, I to dive not
I am able. Over the tops turns the helicopter with the operator - a wave
Drives.
Round us the boat with the operator turns - gasoline smokes in most
Nose. The operator with the underwater chamber underfoot turns. And here still
Current between islands. In a word, in it to the child and horror we
Four while coast have reached floundered hour. Well though
Boxes have not lost. After all, as it has appeared, there there were an axe, two
The big knife, it is for some reason proud named machete, a cord, pieces
Films, sleeping bags, a kettle. Yes! Was there and the most important thing
Riches - eight plastic bottles with fresh water. And two more
Traps for fish. One trap, I will tell on a secret, we have lost
At once, in the first days. And the second gained all of us.
- Well before fishing still, probably, far. Than it was remembered
The first day spent on island?
- More likely not day, and evening. Because, when have got out on
Sand, already began to darken. Only we have prepared for a dream - has watered
Rain. It was a nightmare any. From the sky - a water wall, on a raft
Bamboo as it has appeared to sleep it is absolutely impossible, in addition
- It is not visible zgi. At us after all with itself - neither a lantern, nor matches. And
Still - hours at anybody are not present. And here we writhe who where, each other
pytaem: a pier, whether soon dawn? Yes, probably, hour through two. And
The dawn all is not present, and the rain goes. We have already decided, that morning not
Will come never. When the dawn began to dawn - I have not begun to cry nearly
With happiness. We in a trice have cheered up. Have stretched cords, have begun
To dry, somehow to arrange an island life.
... Later, in Moscow, the Hope with humour recollected that first night
On island. But then had no time for laughter. The matter is that in
The Caribbean widths darkens early - hours per six evenings. In seven
P.m. - kromeshnaja, ink night. To dawn begins nearby
Six mornings. So local evening "islanders" have accepted for
Late night. They had to wait for sunrise not less than nine
Hours. Under a torrential rain. Open-air.
- Why you mokli open-air? Unless it was impossible
bystrenko to make a tent any? After all were at you and
Cords, and a film...
- You know, when here, in Moscow, I told about ours
Adventures, to me there and then started to give the most remarkable
Councils. One ways of getting of fire I know now not less
Hundreds. But one business - to tell about ways, and absolutely another -
To extract fire in such discouraging conditions.
- Well after all you tried something?
- Certainly. That there was a combustible material near at hand - nearly
Dozen female linings have destroyed. Both pieces of wood rubbed, and stones
The friend about the friend beat, that a spark to cut, but fire have not extracted. Even
Tried, as at ZHjulja It is correct, of lenses of the field-glass a magnifier to make and
To focus solar beams on a piece of wood - it is useless. The sun
Was low, dim. Humidity - absolute. Every night -
Rains. Any dry thread was not. So also linings not
Have helped.
- Tell, what was your life? Where and as you washed, as
Cooked food - as lived, in general?
- Actually, our vital zone was some kind of a circle
In radius of 500 metres. In this territory we collected fire wood, nuts.
For two days on all command, on game conditions, us stood out 900
Fig. grammes There was a kettle, a frying pan. Fire supported
All day and night. For the night remained to be on duty kostrovym somebody from
Men. But two or three times fire at us simply filled in:
There were such downpours, that all surface of our platform left
Under water of centimetres on ten. We were gained by fifteen matches,
Which we have won in competition.
Two times in a trap fish has got. More and, as
Tried, have not caught anything.
And a life... Washed on an ocean coast. On all about all - a quarter
Water glass. Here is how you want, and wash, clean a teeth.
- And now tell frankly: really for all time the island
Lives have not arisen any romantic mood, desire?
All the same an emerald wave, the turquoise sky, a free life and
Suntanned torsos. And what is necessary for more close acquaintance?
- If you mean sex, a dirty body - the best
The means killing passion. Certainly, a champagne glass on
To tropical wedding Anechki and Sergey it was looked fine, but to it
Has simply carried: they have met on road on island. And then,
We have not become like cattle to such degree to make love
Under a sight of videocameras. By the way, there were also latent chambers. Them
Children from other command have found out absolutely casually. Have begun
To dig any hole and have chopped a cable.
And conditions... Half-starved, dozing
Existence... I, for example, know, that our guys on the sly
Discussed the man's problems: a pier, how at you in the mornings? Yes
In any way... Well, say and well, and that I thought, what is it only at
Me such ill luck...
- Tell, and it was terrible there, on island?
- We understood, that our death nobody will admit -
Professionals podstrahovyvali us. But conditions of the wild tropical
The nature were quite real. So dangers if not
Trapped us continually were not concealed especially.
Yes the same cocoes! Certainly, coconuts have fine gained us
- We their fur-trees also have not starved to death. But generally these spheres fell
Metres etak from twenty. And to weight - under two kilogrammes. So if on
temechku to whom has lighted - carry away gotovenkogo. And in the morning, happened,
You will wake up - around nuts. As sleeping not prishiblo - it is not clear.
Other trouble - mosquitoes. The Russian mosquito in comparison with it
Midges - the chairman of club of old good-natured persons. To us have given out
Repellent, and these creatures on it sneezed. In couple of days we have howled
- Replace, give another! All skin itches. We go red, in
The blisters, combed. And on the screen of our disfigured skin not
It is visible. Such here property of a video film.
Mosquitoes. Family of insects of group dvukrylyh. Length - from
Ones and a half to 3,5 millimetres. Exists more than 130 kinds. Females -
The blood-sicking. Some kinds - carriers lejshmaniozov,
moskitnoj and other fevers.
- But, probably, process of a survival too was not sugar?
- Want frankly? Generally before arrival on island I thought
So: I fly on darmovshchinku, I will look exotic edges and it is quiet
I will return. And so - darmovshchinki did not leave. Has carried that who has left
The first. For the others it there was a serious game, with full
Pressure both physical, and moral forces.
- From this place is more detailed, please.
- Well, give at first - about physical pressure. Practically
Every day there were competitions. And since morning nobody knew, than
It is necessary to be engaged. Means, it was difficult to guess, that on
Itself to put on. You will leave in shorts - and it will be necessary to dive. You will come in
Bathing suit, and you will send on errands in jungle. But even if you will be equipped
As it is necessary, from you seven sweats will descend.
Here, for example, as there has passed our first competition "fire Getting".
It was necessary to reach a raft, to tow off it on island, on
Hands to drag to the specified place. This bamboo raft - that still
Weight. I do not understand till now, how we dragged it on the
Shoulders. And on road it was necessary to light torches - pieces
Twenty five if I am not mistaken. Yes! All it was necessary
To do, competing with other command! Who the first came to
To finish with a bamboo on heads, that also received fire for the
Islands.
- Judging by the telereport, you have come the first?
- Here as it has turned out - at us Igor has stumbled, and all of us
Got to sand. So actually contenders have bypassed us. But
They could not light some torches, and we as a result of a steel
Owners of fire. But, as it has appeared, it yet the end. Children
Began to check, why torches have not lighted up. It has appeared,
Argentineans who prepared all our ammunition and equipment,
Have forgotten to fill in in these torches a gas mixture. Blockheads.
In other competition it was necessary to dive. Really to
posinenija. Besides what to plunge all it was necessary repeatedly,
That pop-up spheres to untie, so still made a copy of ours
Divings repeatedly. As a result water - plus thirty, and we
We shiver dark blue from a cold.
Never I will forget competition with insects. Well like as we
nasobirali bugs also we are going to them to have a snack. Bodrov removes
Scarf, and on a dish - My God my God you mine! - black, terrible bugs
Potter about. Armours chitinous shine. We were stupefied. And Bodrov
Speaks: were frightened, a pier? Good, we will consider it as training. And
Drags any white worms. Also represent, after chitin
These white slippery ubljudochki seem quite edible. And we
We dip them in mustard and... We eat! Horror! And it was necessary language
To show thus - say, I chew, under language I do not hide.
- All have eaten, and you have lost competition. Why?
- The matter is that the second stage of competition was such:
Representatives of commands should eat this muck once again. And
Who faster. We have cast lots. At us has dropped out Anechke. And at another
Commands - to Sergey. So he is the former commando! To it - that a worm, that
Frog. While Anechka to a worm a head bit off, it of the in a trice
Has gobbled up.
- However! And psychological pressure in what affected?
- So after all we had a problem not the command to hold on, and
To remain to one. It to was not necessary to become simple the hero, and the last
The hero. The game intrigue also consisted in it. And, as you already
Have understood, all it occurred against far not comfortable conditions.
- What you then would like most of all?
- I already would like nothing.
Hope Semenova, only having come back home, to Balashikha, will manage
To explain, why it "would like nothing". The matter is that
Existence on island was reduced to search of food and fire wood,
To competitions and numerous interviews, from which later
Films were mounted. Forces and time there was that that on
Any desires, but also on the most plain dreams. Besides
Existence in the space closed, as a matter of fact, under the constant
Sight of videocameras generated irritation. Itself, neighbours,
Hateful island.
- It was difficult to constrain itself?
- Let's tell so: game unlocked soul hiding places. And then on light
There were those qualities of character which have been hidden earlier.
Negative qualities were bared not only positive, but also.
Well, maybe, I was incorrectly expressed. Not that that
The negative... Simply in a usual life many would conduct themselves
Otherwise. As to you to explain... Well, here an example. Natasha and Borja
Have caught cancers-eremites. Fire at us while is not present. They small,
Crude, is there is nothing. To hold simply so? Will become rotten. I have let out them
In the sea. And our hunters so were upset. Have started to say, that I them
Has specially let out to vex. By the way, when at us
There was fire, we have again caught cancers-eremites. Have welded. And
What? Smelly, bitter, and again is there is nothing.
- Perhaps, if you have really appeared on
Desert island - you would concern to each other more
Tolerantly. And here - television cameras, constant interviews, where generally
It is necessary to be extremely frank. After all as a result of these
Franknesses someone should leave struggle. Perhaps,
It created soil for intrigues?
- Probably, and was. In any case, for me, for example,
It was very serious psychological test. That to me suddenly
Began to seem, what exactly the island is and there is a present life. And
Everything, that was in Moscow, is any dream. Or a film, which I
Once about itself looked. I have stayed in such status three
Weeks. Before me has left six participants. Then on the next
Council my turn has come.
- What have put to you "in fault"?
- I have learnt a lot of interesting about myself. It has been told, that I
Artful, clever, even terrible also I try to subordinate to myself a tribe.
By the way, earlier - in doostrovnoj I too could hear lives,
That I artful also aspire to subordinate to myself others. And I always
It was justified: no, that you, I ingenuous, instead of artful. And now
I am not justified. Perhaps, it is normal reaction of the woman,
Which not namerena to surrender, which struggles for a survival?
I know, that Natasha Tan for some reason has simply begun to hate me.
She very much wished to win. And at the first stage my voice has appeared in
The general solving, and it remained. Has approached to me. I, speak,
I will vote only together with you. And I also have told to it, that
Earlier, on selection, I was against its nominee. Here also has caught
The enemy.
But I also know, that from those who remained, at me were and
Supporters. So voices were divided. And by and large, I
Very much in time has left from island.
When Hope Semenova has come back home, it, as well as all
Participants of the project, two days were investigated by physicians and psychologists. Doctors
Have frankly told to it, that the organism is fine exhausted. If to
Its flying away if it is possible so to be expressed, force was estimated in 1200
Units after returning this indicator did not exceed 350.
- Probably, you will not forget last council never...
- Yes all councils of a tribe - employment not for nervous. Even
Purely physically. After all for council shootings lighted set
Torches, fires, flat dishes. And try sit among
Remarkable stuffy tropical night among fire sea... And here
You sit under the black hot sky, as a vegetable in a hotbed. You thaw. And
Council goes, actually, on you. On your nominee. I already
Has understood, that now - my turn. I have very warmly said goodbye with
Anechkoj is the real turgenevskaja the young lady. And that at
Them with Serezhej so all has developed, it is very healthy. Still I for
Vanechku very much was ill. To it nineteen years, and it already present
The man. Not the rowdy, will listen to all, but at it always the
Position, the principles. It is very good.
To tell the truth, I thought, that he will win. Does not happen.
But we will return to "my" council. There all is made so, that
"Deducted" from island "home" does not come back. You extinguish the
Torch, you take away rjukzachok and you leave from a set. On
Exit you are met by the security guard, the employee of the project. Put in a boat
Also carry on base.
And there you start to understand, that such happiness. A spoon,
Mug, a toilet paper are elements of happiness. A shower, a bath with
Shampoo - in general unearthly pleasure.
So it has turned out, that before flying away to Moscow I even twelve days
Has spent on the rendered habitable island. Home it was torn terribly. Did not please
Bungalow with the conditioner, neither lobsters, nor lobsters. By the way, mine
Organizers of the project have noted returning by a remarkable banquet.
The first impression - whisky has tried - and I do not feel anything.
As if water I drink. Here, what intense was.
- That you most of all would like to try after the coconut
Diets?
- Tea with a soft roll. It is remembered, on island all dreamt that
Meat to fry, some salads to do. Now anything it not
It would be desirable. I can eat only simple food - a boiled potato there, with
Cucumber. Any izyskov.
- It not unique change in tastes, character,
Habits?
- Personally for me returning was very difficult. So left,
That from island I have departed, and to a habitual life have returned far
Not at once. All was not pleasant to me, all was bad, at me nothing
It turned out. In Moscow I was already on sixth of November, but only under
New year all began to be adjusted somehow.
Before we met children, with authors of the project. We
Looked the first series of ours odissei. If it is fair, to me
It seemed, that all are somehow guarded, old insults proceed
And only hide behind pleasure words. I have solved more on these
Meetings not to go. But when we were collected in second time, by us of all
The company proboltali till one o'clock in the morning.
Whether I have changed? Whether I feel these changes? Certainly.
After this shake-up I absolutely another. I perceive myself, a life,
People, events such what they are, and I do not try all it without
Special need to alter. And still every morning I wake up with the such
Sensation of pleasure and silent delight what happens only on
Dawn on Eighth of March.
Vladimir Popov.
