    What an insane story, I think his experience will be made in to a movie someday. He should write his own memoir.

      Just on the surface this is incredible. I hope he does get some sort of movie thing done so he can help himself and Ukraine. Overall so that all of the fallen and captured get a voice.

    Surrender to russians likely means death via sledge hammer after torture so not really an option
