Girl Set on Fire During Fire Show in. St. Petersburg
Now Ksyusha is balancing between life and death
By Irina Brikina 23.04.2008

A posh fire show at the opening of Martial Arts Olympics, that has ended in St. Petersburg these days at sports complex “Peterburgsky” was near to a tragedy. A 23-year old Kseniya Ivanova was on the scene with sp called ‘fire snakes‘ when suddenly spurts of flame blazed up on her legs. Fire flared up her back. The girl tried to slip backstage unnoticed not to spoil her colleagues’ performance.

Assistants who were nearby tried to put out the blaze. When the doctors came rushing Kseniya was conscious. She could even walk to the ambulance car.

Doctors of resuscitation department of Dzhanelidze Emergence Ambulance Research Institute diagnosed ambustion of 45% of body surface.

- Yesterdy she started coming out of shock. They make her pain killer injections all the time now. – girl’s boyfriend, Stepan Martov is saying – “The critical period shall last for a mpnth. Doctors say if she lasts it – she’ll survive”.

The girl has her legs burnt, her stomach and back also affected. She needs donor blood now. Loads of it.

- Ksyusha (as family and friends call her) needs at least five donors a day to survive – Stepan sais – We search for the people who are ready to help. Their blood type doesn’t matter. You can give your blood to exchange it in blood bank for the type required’.

Stepan’s relatives and friends have already donated their blood. But that is not enough.

How could this have happened? According to Stepan, Ksyusha was working fire shows for over four years. She was never afraid of anything she was considered a true specialist.



Colleagues think of Ivanova as of true specialist
(picture taken from family archive)

- Every fire show artist with years of experience has this risk of getting burned. – Alexander Tsaregorodtsev, “Gelios” Fire Theatre Director sais. – Of course, we try to minimize it. But this is what work with fire is! When someone is performin with [lexicon]Snakes[/lexicon] a slight touch on the costume is enough for the combustible to get into the fabric. If the costume is not made of leather, the clothes become a burning wick.

Although the reason to the tragedy might have been different. According to Alexander, they’ve had cases of people burn injuries due to bad kerosene quality.
-
Ksyusha and Stepan were supposed to get married in two months. Stepan believes that his beloved will certainly get well.
