From the km.ru news wire:
The flying celebrity has finally been found in Russia. A resident of Chita [a city near China], who had become fairly drunk on the occasion of his birthday, decided to leave his apartment via a window. His apartment, though, is on the 8th floor. Grabbing hold of some curtains in order to look good, he took a running leap out the kitchen window and flew down five stories, just like the famous movie hero. Then, according to the Russian News Bureau, he fell onto some high-voltage lines strung at the third floor level, causing a powerful explosion that blacked out power to the entire district. The young man was thrown to the ground, after which he got up, dusted himself off, and went on his way. Curiously, journalists who came the next day to look at this "Batman" could find no visible injuries. When asked where he went after his leap, the young man gave a comprehensive answer: "For vodka."Наконец-то в России нашли знаменитого летающего человека. Один читинец, изрядно подвыпив на своем дне рождения, решил выйти из своей квартиры через окно. Только квартира эта располагалась на восьмом этаже. Разбежавшись, он выпрыгнул из кухни, "захватив" для красоты занавески и пролетел как знаменитый киногерой пять этажей. Затем, по сообщению РБН, на уровне третьего этажа он упал на высоковольтные линии, после чего последовал мощный взрыв и отключение электричества во всем районе. Молодого человека отбросило на землю, после чего он встал, отряхнулся и пошел. Что любопытно, журналисты, приехавшие посмотреть на "Бэтмена" на следующий день, никаких видимых повреждений у него не обнаружили, а на вопрос "куда пошел после прыжка" получили исчерпывающий ответ – "За водкой".
My translation; km.ru's story. And one really lucky dude in Chita.

Cheers...

LOL!

It's exploits like this that give the expression "Evolution in action" a bad name.

:)))) that'sagoodone!! i had an opportunity to get intoxicated with russians during my studies in moscow. they are totally dedicated when they drink. it's a sort of ritual for these gays. once i tried do plump few for-water-glasses of votka (it was more like 100% alcohol)... they told me i should not breath through the nose. fuck, after that i was near to death!
