“Thank you for our happy childhood” - former teenagers of the 90s write on the portraits of Sergei Suponev, and then post them on the Internet. It is they who speak warmly about this person, the author and host of many children's entertainment and educational programs. He died early and did not have time to implement many projects.
Carier start
Sergey Evgenievich Suponev, the future idol of youth, was born in the family of the actor of the Theater of Satire and the pianist of the orchestra of the same theater on January 28, 1963. After leaving school, Sergei entered the Faculty of Journalism. After studying for one year, he enlisted in the army and returned to Moscow State University in 1983 to complete his studies. After university, he began to conquer television.
I must say that Sergei began working at Central Television while still studying at Moscow State University, albeit as a simple loader. But three years later, he became an administrator in the section of music programs, after the same time he completely took up children's and teenage projects.
His first brainchild was the Marathon-15 program, where he was a full-fledged director and presenter at the same time. Then more and more new projects of Sergei began to appear - "The Finest Hour" (he began to lead it at the invitation of Vlad Listyev), "Dandy - New Reality", "Call of the Jungle", "These Funny Animals", "Seven Troubles - One Answer", "The Seventh Sense", etc.
In 1997, Sergei was invited to appear in the film "Dandelion Wine" based on the novel of the same name by Ray Bradbury, where he played Douglas's father.
Interrupted flight
In an interview on December 6, 2001, Sergei Suponev talked about his new project, which was supposed to be released in March 2002. However, this was not destined to come true.
Sergei loved outdoor activities and on December 8 he went for a snowmobile ride on the frozen Volga. The tragedy took place not far from his country house. Around midnight, Suponev's body was found by local residents. There are two versions of his death in the press, but they all boil down to one thing - a collision of a snowmobile with a certain obstacle. According to one assumption, this is a large tree on the shore, on the other - the wooden walkways of the river pier, covered with snow.
The media said that next to Sergei's body was found the corpse of an unknown girl who was rolling that evening with him.
Sergei Suponev was buried on December 11 at the Troekurovsky cemetery.
It is noteworthy that twelve years later, Sergei's son from his first marriage, Cyril, committed suicide. There are references in the press that after Sergei's divorce from his first wife, and then after his tragic death, the boy closed in on himself. However, he continued to be a versatile person, followed in his father's footsteps, worked in television and even played in a rock band.
On September 28, 2013, he was found hanged in his parents' apartment. There were no violent marks on the body, there was not even any note. A few hours later, a concert of the group, in which Kirill played, was to take place. What was the impetus is still unknown, but everyone knows that separation from his father Cyril endured very hard.
