This video instantly encouraged (as they say now) on the Internet. In it, TV presenter Dmitry Khrustalev in military vestments, leaning back from a tank hatch, dashingly reports: “Private Khrustalev’s guards to pass the preparation of ordinary makes in the tank crew! The young heroes of our Fatherland are ready? " - "Always ready!" - the young heroes respond, stretching into a string. "Climb on the combat unit!" The combat unit, putting on the armor of “ordinary makes”, under the melody of the song “Three Tankers, Three Merry Friends” breaks down. In the next frames, the crew of the combat vehicle under the cry of the military "Fire on the enemies of Russia!" It takes a shot. Place of action - Moscow region, Mytishchi, training training ground. Having shot from the tank, the whole company, led by the same Khrustalev, moves to the shooting range.
Numerous sites are filled with headings: "Comedian Khrustalev fulfilled the dream of children from the new regions of Russia." By meaning, it turns out that it was he who was so Khokhmil, the comedian, teaching the youngsters to aim at a certain mythical enemy, who for some reason in the Moscow Region Mytishchi near Moscow?
Not at all. Everything is in serious. A video with a tank is only a part of a large plot from the cycle "Step to a dream." Its author, leading the “good morning” on Channel One Polina Tsvetkova, part -time Amdassador of the Popular Front, at the beginning of the issue reports: “This project helps the children of our country take the first steps towards their dreams.”
Makeevka boys, small less, dressed in camouflage, built a checkpoint on the road from branches and branches at home and, as Tsvetkova says with enthusiasm, "for two years have been proudly and confidently carrying their service." In the arsenal, they have wooden missiles marked with the letter Z, the flag of Russia, selected on the road, and toy machines with which they play the attack, after which they also take out the “Ponaroshka” of the wounded “three hundredths” from the battlefield. Then, in short interviews, one of the “fighters”, the kid about eight years, said: “My dad is fighting. His leg was torn off, but he, like a real hero, returned back. ” Another, trying not to cry in the frame, says with a trembling voice: “I have a brother and uncle there. I don’t know what is happening to them now, and I am very worried about them. ”
These are wounded. So once called his piercing film Nikolai Gubenko-the Railway himself, whose childhood, like the childhood of his heroes, was in the terrible years of the Great Patriotic War.
The guys from the Donbass were born and grew up under the roar of the cannonade. Nothing but this, they did not manage to see in their short life.
“But they are still children,” the host states with emotion, “therefore, especially in the New Year, they want to believe in magic. The boys decided to write letters to Santa Claus - and real miracles began to occur immediately. ”
The first of the Miracles was the camouflage network, which, on behalf of Santa Claus, they gave them and helped to pull the military who came to visit. And then the young fighters were taken to Moscow.
“We thought for a long time how we could please the young defenders of the Fatherland. And, perhaps, the choice of location will surprise you a little, ”the host admits. “But seeing the emotions of the guys, we realized that we were right.” This very “amazing location” was precisely the training training ground in Mytishchi, where comedian Khrustalev arrived on the tank with the call sign “crunch”, who “responded to our idea and gave the guys an unforgettable impressions for life”.
The plot with the tank became central in this issue, but Tsvetkova still wanted to "a little back the guys to peaceful life." In this peaceful life, they “slightly” rolled on the carousels, led a round dance with Santa Claus under the song “A Christmas tree was born in the forest” and received real walkie -talkies as a gift so that in their usual life they could continue their service “proudly and confidently”.
And the comedian Mitya Khrustalev, most likely, also took a decisive step towards a dream, which he shared with Irina Shikhman*about four years ago - to become the first. “I have never been the second,” he said in that interview. “I am either a prince in ballet, or I don’t need this ballet.” He described his secondary role on the surveillance of the star as follows: “It’s some kind of sort of hem, sometimes even a lyso-strip that does not claim to say some funny things. But he is funny ... But you don’t think so, and I don’t think so that I am going to be the second one forever ... As they say in our Leningrad, to shit in a notebook for public opinion about me ... Would I have changed with Vanya? He is a producer, he is responsible for every little thing. I won’t pull such responsibility ... but I could be the host of such a show! ”
Khrustalev and so already “could” on Channel One: KVN, New Year's show, and “Christmas meetings” with Leps. Only the dream of the author’s evening show “Evening Urgant” remained unrealized. "Evening crunch", for example. Sounds?
It is possible that the brilliant Ivan was also offered in exchange for returning on the air to ride in a tank and shoot, albeit idle cartridges, in an imaginary enemy. Well, or something like that-a tall Urgant, unlike small Khrustalev, is unlikely to fit in the tank. But, apparently, it did not grow together. In one of the recent interviews, Ivan to the question of how he relates to the fact that he himself was now in the shadow of his former show partner, answered allegorically, but aptly: “This shadow protects me from a burn. Mitya takes all the radiation on herself. ”
And one of the young participants in the tank plot shared his own “unforgettable” impression: “The tank was so big. And Dmitry Khrustalev leaned out cool. "
Yes, yes. He leaned so leaned out. Like no one. You look and get counted.
By the way, another “second”-Artem Sheinin, who had been living in the shade of another star-Vladimir Pozner for many years, as his chief editor-finally earned in addition to the current show “Time will show” his own weekly program-“Heroes of Heroes” . According to the coincidence - also an interview, also on Mondays after midnight and exactly in the same place where, until 02.24.22, the author’s program of its cartridge was published for many years.
