The leader of the bike club night wolves Alexander zaldostanov. Beautician, “gay dill” and Polish Russophobes: what is the famous biker Surgeon and “Night Wolves”

Alexander Sergeevich Zaldostanov(according to some sources, the correct spelling of the surname is Zaldastanov), nickname - Surgeon - the legendary Soviet and Russian biker, founder and leader of the biker movement in Russia and the oldest Russian biker club "Night Wolves". He is also the head of the public non-profit organization "Russian Motorcyclists", operating under his club; President of the Russian Association of Bikers; general director of the Bike Center at the club in Moscow and representative office in Russia of the club "Sexton".

Childhood and youth

Alexander Sergeevich Zaldostanov was born January 19, 1963 in the city of Kirovograd in the Ukrainian SSR. His parents were doctors, besides him, the family also had an older sister Anastasia, she also became a doctor and went to live and work abroad. Mom, Lyubov Vasilievna, worked as a resuscitator and was a deeply religious person, she also tried to educate her children in the spirit of Orthodox religion. Also, this woman had two paradoxical qualities: she was a staunch supporter of the policies of Joseph Stalin, but at the same time a categorical opponent of the ideology of communism.

Alexander Zaldostanov in his youth

Young Alexander, surrounded by doctors, also intended to become a doctor. He entered the 3rd Moscow Medical Institute, graduated from it and residency in 1984, became a certified maxillofacial surgeon. However, there is other information, according to which Zaldostanov did not finish his studies at the medical institute. According to the rules of that time, after graduating from high school, Alexander was assigned to a dental hospital and had to work in his specialty. At first, this happened, he was even predicted a good career in this area. But Zaldostanov was too freedom-loving and unformatted for Soviet society to live his whole life as an ordinary doctor of those years. The rebellious disposition and passion for motorcycles and heavy metal soon manifested themselves so much that the young man left the post of maxillofacial surgeon and medicine in general. More work Alexander did not have a specialty in his life, he completely devoted himself to his hobby, which turned into a style of his life.

The beginning of the biker journey

1983 can be considered the beginning of the biker career of Alexander Zaldostanov. In that year, the guy, while still studying in an internship, bought his first motorcycle. It was the famous Czechoslovak "Java", which became one of the symbols of its time. Riding on his own "iron horse", the young man was distracted from the gray reality and working days. Being desperate and arrogant by nature, Alexander easily made acquaintances with like-minded people, including the "Black Aces" - informal groups, which included not only bikers, but also lovers of heavy music and just lovers of having fun, or even fighting in your pleasure. The head of this youth formation was Rus Tyurin.

"Black Aces" could not fail to notice such a bright personality as Alexander Zaldostanov. More and more lovers of drunkenness and revelry gathered near him, and soon our hero, known among the informals under the nickname "Sasha Dentist", received a more respectable name - Alexander the Surgeon. The whole company of his friends began to be called "Surgery".

The rise and rise of the Night Wolves

The prerequisite for creating his own biker club, which later became legendary, was Alexander Zaldostanov's move to West Germany. This happened because of the marriage of our hero to a German woman named Matilda in 1985. Life in a foreign country was not cloudless for the Soviet guy. He had to engage in a wide variety of activities in order to be able to provide for himself and his wife. Zaldostanov worked in West Germany as a watchman, as a sitter, as a concierge, as an auto mechanic, and as a doorman. It was at the position of a doorman in one of the nightclubs - the institution was called "Sexton" - that he met with representatives of the famous Hells Angels motorcycle club. These people made such a strong impression on the young Soviet biker that he was set on fire with the idea of ​​​​creating the same movement and the same organization in his homeland. This is what he did in 1989, when he returned to Soviet Union. The grouping of bikers was called the "Night Wolves", and Alexander Zaldostanov himself, since then called almost everywhere the Surgeon, became its head.

1993 - new stage in the biker movement in Russia. Alexander the Surgeon defeated Alik Goch - the leader of the Rostov motorcycle association "Cossacks", thus "monopolizing" the entire Russian biker environment. Our hero was then thirty years old. Since then, none of the representatives of this trend in Russia could create their own groups or perform other significant actions for this area as a whole, without enlisting the approval of the Night Wolves and the Surgeon himself.

Suddenly, a new problem arose for Zaldostanov. He himself and his new offspring needed money, and the biker, who was not working anywhere, had none. In order to get a source of permanent income, Alexander and his “brothers” founded a rock club, which they named the same as a similar institution in West Germany, where the Surgeon worked as a doorman (and also a bouncer) - “Sexton”. This place went down in history as the center of frantic revelry and brawls, drinking parties and fights. Things were going great, but in 1995 the rock club suffered misfortune - it burned down. "Wolves" did not lose heart and laid the foundation for a new event - a biker show, which they began to hold every year with the involvement of participants from different countries, that is, Russian bikers have reached the international level.

Life after the accident

1999 is a new starting point in the life of Alexander Zaldostanov. When he was riding his motorcycle, the front brakes suddenly jammed. There was a serious accident, due to which the Surgeon even fell into a coma. The man remained in such a grave condition for two weeks. Having come to his senses and recovered, Alexander changed a lot in his outlook on life. He turned into a very religious person, for the rest of his life he decided to live as it should truly. Orthodox Christian. The surgeon became a frequent parishioner in churches, began to communicate with the clergy. One of them was a priest, but at the same time an actor, director, screenwriter, and in the past a well-known brawler and informal. He and Zaldostanov became close and found a common language. Okhlobystin began to visit Sexton, and to do this more and more often, and eventually joined the ranks of the Night Wolves, because Ivan Ivanovich is also a motorcycle enthusiast. Another innovation in the life of the Surgeon was his rejection of motorcycles of foreign firms. After coming out of a coma, he began to drive the domestic Ural, which caused considerable surprise among some members of the community.

It would seem that such an event as attracting Ivan Okhlobystin, a personality popular in various circles, to his company should further rally the Wolves and elevate their own leader, the Surgeon, in their eyes. However, it turned out quite the opposite. Zaldostanov's excessive religiosity turned some of the bikers against him. A split occurred among the Night Wolves: some of them remained loyal to the Surgeon, despite his new thinking, and some left the organization. And there were so many who broke away that they were able to create their own biker groups. All this led to the fact that the "Night Wolves" ceased to be monopolists in the motorcycle world of Russia. But the creator and ideological inspirer of this movement did not seem to be particularly worried about such changes. He focused on rebuilding the Sexton Club, which was to become a major biker hub.

Views and social activities of the Surgeon

Alexander "Surgeon" Zaldostanov actively participates in the public life of the country. At the same time, he does not get tired of repeating that he has nothing to do with politics and does not want to have one. However, no one can fail to notice the influence exerted by the Night Wolves on the masses. There is hardly a person who has never heard of this biker club and its controversial leader. Moreover, it should be noted that the Surgeon is trying to promote patriotism, respect for the motherland and its history among the population and especially young people, and also instills the Orthodox faith. For such hard and fruitful work in 2013, Zaldostanov was awarded the Order of Honor.

The Night Wolves Club often arranges various events, especially those dedicated to various significant dates from the history of the country. For example, on the anniversary of the victory in the Great Patriotic War, the Battle of Stalingrad, the Battle of Sevastopol, motorcycle shows, rallies, and festivals are held. Zaldostanov is also known as a participant in religious processions, where he moves in the same column with the rest of the believers. This causes strong indignation among a significant part of the bikers, but the Surgeon does not change his beliefs. Also, an ambiguous reaction is due to the friendship of the Surgeon with the President of the Russian Federation. The head of state visited the Sexton club three times, and also participated in motorcycle races in 2010 and 2011.

Surgeon's personal life

The personal life of Alexander "Surgeon" Zaldostanov remains almost completely a mystery behind seven seals. Despite his publicity and eccentricity, a man does not like to spread on such a private topic. Even journalists managed to find very little information about the Surgeon's relationship with women. It is known for certain that in 1985, at the age of twenty-two, the guy married a German woman. The girl's name was Matilda, she was a journalist from the Federal Republic of Germany. As it turned out, the family of Zaldostanov's chosen one was not easy: the girl's father was the director of the Mercedes-Benz branch in the city of Stuttgart. After getting married, the young people went to live in West Berlin. But family life did not work out. The most likely cause is severe financial situation Alexander and Matilda. Despite the status of his father-in-law, Zaldostanov was not lucky enough to use his help, but had to work hard himself in Germany in order to feed himself and his wife. Thus, the details of Alexander's life with his German wife are unknown, only the fact that in 1989 the marriage broke up and our hero returned home to the Soviet Union is undeniable.

In the future, the Surgeon's relationship with women was not commented on by the biker himself, and only occasionally mentions of them appeared in the press. Whether any of what was written was true - one can only guess. For example, once in several publications there were suggestions about the close relationship between Zaldostanov and the infamous ballerina.

The surgeon is also a father - he has a son, George, already quite an adult guy. Sometimes information about other children of Alexander "pops up", both about sons and about daughters. Moreover, Zaldostanov turned out to be a caring dad, he does not renounce his offspring, does not deny paternity, but, on the contrary, helps children in every possible way.

surgeon now

In 2016, a scandal erupted around the statement of the Surgeon, in which he criticized the artistic director of the Satyricon Theater Konstantin Raikin, who supports the abolition of censorship in Russia. The statements of two celebrities raised a wave of resonance in society. The words of the Surgeon were quite harsh and based on the fact that excessive freedom never brought to good, because it is precisely with freedom that the devil always tempts people. Two warring camps were formed: some became opponents of Zaldostanov in this decision of his, others ardently supported the biker's position. Among the like-minded surgeon was, in particular, the Chechen head. He argued that complete permissiveness in society in general and art in particular can lead to very deplorable consequences: promiscuity of youth and insulting feelings and beliefs. religious people. The conflict of the parties reached such a point of intensity that even representatives of the authorities intervened in the matter. The press secretary of the President of the Russian Federation advised the Surgeon to make a public apology. But the famous "night wolf" did not want to give in and give up his words.

In May 2018, Alexander Zaldostanov again declared himself as a shocking person. Then the inauguration of the President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin was held, and the Surgeon appeared at it in a very extravagant form. He did not have any headgear, which is uncharacteristic for a biker, and under the traditional jacket of an informal motorcyclist, a white turtleneck was visible.

The surgeon rides a motorcycle in the wrong form: without a mandatory helmet. Also, despite many years of driving experience, he constantly violates the rules of the road, and he does it consciously. Because of this, the biker is constantly at odds with law enforcement.

Alexander Zaldostanov acted in films several times. In 1989, it was an episodic role in the sensational drama film Crash - the Cop's Daughter. In 1992, he also played bit parts in Luna Park and Dancing Ghosts.

Alexander Zaldostanov is the main biker of Russia. Founder of the Night Wolves biker club and its leader. Alexander is also the head of the Russian Motorcyclists group, the president of the Russian Bikers Association, CEO representative offices of the Sexton club and the Buy Center at the Moscow club. Starting as an obscure dentist, Alexander Khirurg rose to astonishing fame as the leader of the biker movement in Russia.

Biography

The biography of the biker Surgeon begins in the Ukrainian SSR in 1963. Alexander was born on January 19 in the city of Kirovograd in a family of doctors. By nationality Alexander Zaldostanov Ukrainian. It was the influence of parents that largely determined life path future biker, although the medical business briefly took a significant place in Alexander's life. After studying at the medical institute, he began to earn money in a dental clinic. At night, Alexander had fun at noisy parties, and during the daytime he helped patients. Since then, "Sasha Dentist" has changed significantly, becoming Alexander "Surgeon": at present, his image is associated exclusively with the harsh lifestyle of a biker. And this is not unreasonable: now he is actually recognized as the founder of the biker movement in Russia.

This path was not easy, since its beginning goes back to a time when society was still extremely negative about any deviations from the generally accepted norm. Informals of that time often had to participate in fights, defending their worldview. Judging by the recollections and various eyewitness accounts, the Surgeon was willing to fight and was not shy about waving his fists.

Biker Surgeon has always been against the routine: around the 80s, he joined the metalworkers, quit his job as a dentist and never officially worked again.

Metalworker Surgeon

Participating in many street fights, young Alexander Zaldostanov once became familiar with the leader of the metalworkers Rus Tyurin. His group "Black Aces" was distinguished by a nasty and stubborn disposition. Dressed in leather, listening to forbidden metal and rock, always ready for a fight, "Aces" did not accept everyone. They rarely made contact, unlike the Surgeon, who loved to give interviews - that's why Rus left all the conversations with journalists to him.

"Surgery"

Active and full of enthusiasm, the future biker Surgeon in his youth was able to gather many like-minded people. Zaldostanov gave a name to his own group, christening it with a completely logical name - "Surgery". Being the head, he himself took the nickname Surgeon by analogy with his professional activity.

At the same time, he bought his first Java motorcycle. This event motivated him to transform his society into a motorcycle club.

Later, in one of his travels in Europe, the biker Surgeon made acquaintance with members of an important European motorcycle club. So he learned about the basic laws of the biker hierarchy.

Attracting people to this new culture was not so easy due to the lack of intelligible information. But soon the first video salons appeared, where you could watch almost any film: it was in this way that many got acquainted with the biker subculture. Especially popular in those days were the movies "Streets on Fire" and "Savage". Because of this, the gangs began to emulate the style of European and American motorcyclists, which included powerful motorcycles, leather jackets and massive chains. Adhering to this style, Zaldostanov quickly became the leader of the informals. His task was to glorify his club not only within the country, but throughout the world.

"Night Wolves"

Of great importance in the fate of the biker Surgeon was his trip to Germany in 1985 - almost immediately after his wedding. In Germany, Alexander began to earn money in a variety of places from a watchman to a sitter, including a bouncer at the Sexton nightclub. So he got a unique opportunity to get close to the German bikers from famous club"Hell's Angels". The desire of Alexander Zaldostanov to organize such a movement in his homeland only grew stronger. The character of the Surgeon was always stubborn and persistent, so he achieved his goal. In 1989, he returned to the country and carried out his plan by organizing the Night Wolves biker club.

A new era in the history of the formation of biker culture in Russia began in 1993. Biker Surgeon, who recently celebrated his 30th birthday, was the leader of the main club of motorbikers, defeating the head of the Cossacks motorcycle club Alik Goch. So Alexander became a monopoly among bikers in Russia.

"Sexton"

Since Zaldostanov did not work anywhere, he needed some source of income: that is why the Night Wolves organized the Sexton rock club, borrowing the name of the German club where the Surgeon once moonlighted. The Wolves Club was known for loud celebrations with strong drinks and large-scale carnage. In 1995, a fire broke out at Sexton, and nothing remained of the club. But with the demise of the old, the new has come: from that day on, the biker movement began to organize annual international bike shows.

Accident

In 1999, the surgeon had an accident and was in a coma for 2 weeks. This turning point forced Alexander to turn to God: after these events, he approached the church and Orthodoxy. Often visited the "Sexton" famous actor and the once Orthodox priest Ivan Okhlobystin, who later became a member of the Night Wolves. The religious orientation of the leader contributed to a split in the community: later, many members separated from the group. The monopoly of the "Wolves" was crumbling before our eyes, but Zaldostanov was in no hurry to return the leadership back, setting about restoring the "Sexton".

Views of the Surgeon

Biker Surgeon tries to take part in public life. He often speaks, gives interviews and speaks on various topics, trying to have a positive impact on the minds of young people. The influence of his personality and the "Night Wolves" on society is obvious: Alexander promotes patriotism and love for native land supports Orthodoxy. In 2013, he was even awarded the Order of Honor for his active work with youth.

As for events, "Night Wolves" often organize festivals, motorcycle rallies, as well as various shows in honor of the victory in the Great Patriotic War, the Battle of Sevastopol, the Battle of Stalingrad. Zaldostanov also participates in religious processions with the priests of the Orthodox Church, despite the dissatisfaction of many bikers, Zaldostanov is familiar with Vladimir Putin: the president has visited Sexton more than once and participated in biker runs.

In 2015, the surgeon, together with Mikhail Porechenkov and Yulia Berezikova, became one of the founders of the Anti-Maidan movement, which criticizes the situation in Ukraine. The movement is directed against protest actions demanding the overthrow of the current government.

In addition, the Surgeon initiated the inclusion of the Bandido Nation and Hells Angels biker clubs in the list of undesirable in Russia. In his opinion, they can inflict irreparable harm minds of Russian motorcyclists, introducing the idea of ​​a color revolution. Defending the ideas of patriotism and love for one's neighbor, Zaldostanov actively opposes any internal hatred and enmity.

In 2016, the Surgeon spoke out against the statement by the artistic director of the Satyricon, Konstantin Raikin, about the abolition of censorship. In his opinion, the absence of censorship will lead to total corruption and widespread vulgarity, which is unacceptable in the conditions modern society with extremely shaky morals and intermittent values. At the same time, Zaldostanov is an extremely freedom-loving person, but his position on this issue is unequivocal: at least selective censorship of certain elements is necessary so as not to clog the minds of citizens and young people.

In 2018, Alexander attended the inauguration of Vladimir Putin together with the popular singer Timati: they appeared in rather extravagant costumes. The surgeon appeared without a headdress, but did not forget the traditional biker jacket, from under which a white turtleneck was visible - the biker, according to rumors, put on a white shirt for the first time on such a solemn occasion. Timati flaunted in a green pea jacket.

Personal life

The personal life of the biker Surgeon has a long and rich history, which, however, is shrouded in darkness: Alexander is in no hurry to talk about his personal relationships in an interview.

Back in 1985, the Surgeon married the German journalist Matilda, the daughter of the director of the Mercedes-Benz plant. It is not known why their marriage failed, but it is clear that the Surgeon had several other love affairs. According to rumors, the Surgeon was still married several times, but he himself refutes these speculations, calling Matilda his only wife.

The surgeon has a son named George: according to unconfirmed rumors, he has several brothers. Zaldostanov acknowledges paternity of George and is actively involved in raising his son.

The surgeon does not disclose his personal life so it's almost impossible to know for sure. However, this policy is respected by many: personal life should remain private.

There are a lot of rumors and conjectures around the Surgeon - in the end, the personality is extremely extraordinary and largely controversial. But Alexander himself does not take various kinds of gossip seriously. The path that he made, starting as an unknown metal worker and becoming known throughout Russia and even abroad as the leader of the biker movement, was full of losses and litigation. Now the main biker of Russia, Surgeon, is reaping the laurels of his success and enjoying his own freedom, despite the displeasure of his enemies and to the delight of his followers and like-minded people.

Initially, Alexander Zaldostanov, a graduate of the 3rd medical school (dental), became famous in the mid-80s in the world of heavy metal fans. He was an amateur and a great master of hand-to-hand combat. These "metalheads" first got involved with Depeche Mode fans, then they began to fight with "lubers" (as the inhabitants of the suburbs were called at that time, which today it would be more correct to refer to, probably, as "patriots"). During the years of perestroika, part of the team got on motorcycles, and in the late 80s the Surgeon allegedly married a German journalist who interviewed him, and left for Germany (at that time still Western) for several years, where he became close to bikers from the Hell's Angels.

In the early 90s, the Surgeon returned to Russia as a connoisseur of the mythology of bikers, overgrown with connections, including commercial ones, both in Germany and in the Soviet army that was leaving there at that time. According to the Wolves website, their club was founded in 1989. In August 1991, Zaldostanov led his team to defend Yeltsin, the current site is silent about this, but the medals of the defenders of the White House and acquaintance with his administration allowed the Surgeon in 1992-1994 (as on the site) to open his Sexton nightclub in Moscow (“ Gravedigger"), modeled on a similar one in West Berlin. Zhirinovsky and Dmitry Rogozin were guests in the first Sexton (in 1999, he moved to the territory of the bike center in Mnevniki).

Along with the bike show under the flag of the Night Wolves, commercial activities were also launched selling motorcycles and accessories, manufacturing and selling clothes and symbols. At the turn of the 2000s, the “wolves” began to “gather Russian lands” in the sense of creating “chepts” in the provinces and countries former USSR, often by taking over weaker clubs. Congresses of "wolves" were held in Kaliningrad, where they were patronized by the governor Georgy Boos - a lover of motorcycles. However, after his resignation, the “wolves” were no longer allowed there, and Sevastopol became the new center of their annual show.

The bike show in Sevastopol is held with the blessing of Patriarch Kirill; twice, in 2010 and 2011, the column of "wolves" was led (on a three-wheeled motorcycle) by Putin, and in 2012, in order to see his "brothers", he even arrived late to his colleague Yanukovych. For "active work in the education of young people" the surgeon was awarded the Order of the Badge of Honor. In the fall of 2013, at the celebrations in Volgograd, he spoke out in support of Stalin, citing a quote that scientists consider dubious. Orthodox banners began to be attached to the bikes of the "Russian motorcyclists", who are now not ordered to call themselves "bikers", on especially solemn occasions. However, the appearance on the Internet of a photograph, where a half-naked girl rides the “second number” under the banner, caused a lot of controversy.

The club "Night Wolves" not only replenishes with new members (often from the regions), but many leave it, putting on other "colors" or moving into the category of "free bikers". But not everyone can afford this painlessly. There are organizations and communities where you have to pay more to get out than to get in.

Alexander "Surgeon" Zaldostanov- President of the bike club "Night Wolves"

On Saturday, bikers from the Night Wolves motorcycle club drove through Moscow with balloons with the words "Christ is Risen" on them to support the participants in the rally for Patriarch Kirill of Moscow and All Russia.

According to Life News, the head of the Night Wolves biker movement Alexander Zaldostanov, the action is aimed at supporting the Patriarch of Moscow and All Russia Kirill.
With this rally, says Zaldostanov, better known as the Surgeon, the bikers want to urge the public to stop the information campaign against the Russian Orthodox Church.
- I have always been against demoniacs who laugh at true believers. I am a believer, and all the guys who take part in the action are also believers, - said the Surgeon.
Up to a thousand bikers took part in the motor race, which started at about 20.00 from the observation deck of the Sparrow Hills.
The motoaction took place the day before the general prayer service "in defense of the faith, desecrated shrines, the Church and its good name", which will be held in all the cathedrals of the Russian Orthodox Church on April 22. In Moscow, such a prayer service will be held in the Cathedral of Christ the Savior.

A-ha-ha ... So, gradually, you can nullify the entire reputation of the oldest motorcycle club to the level of a hangout. It seems to me that the Wolves have lost the remnants of respect and have now turned into a typical "Closed Club", where only everyone is their own. I can not believe it. I'm sure most of the HBs are sane enough and will either get out of this hangout or organize another club.

The leader of the Night Wolves bike club, Alexander "Surgeon" Zaldostanov, in an exclusive interview with Pravda.Ru, spoke about what happened in Zelenograd on October 20.

On the night of October 20, Valery Roditelev, a member of the Night Wolves club, was killed. The media were full of headlines about an alleged conflict between the most famous bike club in the country and motorcyclists from the Three Roads club. Information about the incident was transmitted simply: the bikers scored the “arrow” and during the conflict, the participant of the “Three Roads” pulled out a gun and started firing at people. Valery Roditelev tried to save his comrades and point the gun up, but was wounded in the stomach. He later died in the hospital.
The leader of the Night Wolves, Alexander Surgeon Zaldostanov, says that everything that happened was turned upside down, and the causes of the conflict are much deeper and more dangerous than they seem.

According to the Night Wolves, the Three Roads have always been a friendly organization. The bikers wore the symbols of the club of Alexander the Surgeon and even wanted to unite with their comrades. According to the Surgeon, the Three Roads motorcyclists have completely changed in the three months they have not seen each other. After the "Night Wolves" returned from the bike show in Sevastopol, their friends changed their behavior and life position.
The badge that the Surgeon is talking about is the emblem of the radical biker organization "Banditos", which is one of the four motorcycle clubs, the so-called one percenters, who separate themselves from both the mass biker movement and society, the state and laws.
Bikers say that such bike gangs are more common in the West, but now, radical organizations are trying to cross Russia, for which they are gathering accomplices here.

On the fact of the murder of Valery Roditelev, the Investigative Committee opened a criminal case. Members of the motorcycle club "Three Roads" do not comment on the state of emergency that occurred in Zelenograd. The Night Wolves say that they will never answer their former friends with their methods. Everything must be legal in this case.

On the night of October 19-20, 2012, an armed organized group consisting mainly of members of the Night Wolves motorcycle club, led by Alexander Khirurg Zaldostanov, committed a robbery attack on the club house of the 3 Roads motorcycle club, in which at that time there were 7 people.

In response to the fire opened on the club house from firearms and traumatic weapons, saving the lives of loved ones, a member of the 3 Roads club, Yuri Nekrasov, after repeated warnings by voice and warning shots, returned fire from a pump-action shotgun registered according to all the rules.

As a result of the shootout, several attackers were injured. The attackers took the wounded, but not to the hospital. As a result of not providing timely medical assistance, one of the Night Wolves died from blood loss.

The Night Wolves, who are the obvious instigators of the attack, are fully promoting the version that they "came to invite old comrades from the 3 Roads to the holiday, because they have not been seen for a long time, but they suddenly opened fire on them with a shotgun" and that the weapons they were not with them.

The truth is in the video. This is a 12-minute montage of a 40-minute 4-channel recording from outdoor surveillance cameras with an emphasis on what directly indicates the initially criminal intentions of the Night Wolves who arrived at the Oktyabrsky GSK.

The full version of what happened from all surveillance cameras can be viewed here:

A "scout" enters the territory of the GSK, after a while he leaves.
15 cars are coming.
The number of participants from the HB side is 50+.
The participants gather and go en masse to the 3D garage.
Two remain "on the lookout."
A man comes running, takes a bulletproof vest out of the trunk, and runs away.
The reaction of those standing on the lookout to shooting and armor is absent, from which we can conclude that for them this is a predictable development of events.
Take out the wounded.
They carry out the second wounded.
The hostage is taken out.
Mass departure of cars and "run-out" of participants in the events.
The arrival of the police.

Alexander Zaldostanov, better known by his nickname Surgeon, is a legendary Soviet and Russian motorcyclist, leader and creator of the biker movement in Russia, founder of the Night Wolves motorcycle club and the Sexton bike center. One of the founders of the Anti-Maidan movement.

Childhood and family

Alexander was born into a family of doctors. Mother - a resuscitator, a deeply religious woman, was an ardent opponent of the communist regime, but at the same time a staunch supporter of Stalin. In the Orthodox faith, parents tried to raise their children: a daughter and a son. My sister is a doctor by profession. Father, Sergei Zaldostanov, was a doctor.

Biker Surgeon in "Evening Urgant"

It is not surprising that Alexander also tried to connect his life with medicine. In 1984 he graduated from the 3rd Moscow Medical Institute, residency, having received the specialty "maxillofacial surgeon". After the institute, he was sent for distribution to a dental hospital, where his career developed well.


However, love of freedom, an early marriage to a girl from West Germany, a passion for heavy metal, nightly adventures in the company of members of the Black Aces motorcycle club - all this changed the fate of Alexander Zaldostanov, and the profession of a dentist-surgeon faded into the background.

"Black Aces"

The start of the biker's "career" was laid in the early 80s (specifically 1983), while studying internship, when Zaldostanov bought his first motorcycle - "Java". Passion for motorcycles helped Alexander break away from the gray everyday life. The daring and desperate Zaldostanov met the guys from the Black Aces group, which included metalheads, fans of heavy rock music, lovers of all kinds of brawls and fights, and with their leader Rus Tyurin.


Charismatic Alexander immediately captured the attention of "Aces". Gradually, a company of like-minded people formed around him, united by a love for revelry and drunken antics, and gradually Sasha Dentist turned into Alexander the Surgeon, and their group began to call themselves "Surgery".

Night Wolves

An important role in the life of Alexander was played by moving to West Germany, where he moved after marrying a German woman in 1985. In a foreign land, Alexander had to earn a living as an auto mechanic, watchman, model, concierge. Working as a doorman at the Sexton nightclub in Germany gave me the opportunity to meet bikers from the legendary Hells Angels motorcycle club. After that, Zaldostanov did not leave the idea of ​​​​creating a similar movement in her homeland. And he succeeded - upon returning to his homeland in 1989, he created a motorcycle group called "Night Wolves", and Alexander the Surgeon headed it.

1993 was marked by a new milestone in the history of the development of the biker movement in Russia. At the age of 30, the Surgeon became the leader of motorbikers, defeating the Rostov leader of the Cossacks motorcycle association named Alik Goch and becoming a monopolist in the Russian biker environment. No biker movement could henceforth operate without the approval of the Surgeon and the Wolves.

Zaldostanov officially did not work anywhere, he needed a source of income. The Wolves created the rock club Sexton (in Germany he worked as a bouncer in a club of the same name), which was famous noisy parties with alcohol and fighting. The club burned down in 1995. From that moment on, the bike movement began to hold annual bike shows at the international level.

Views of Alexander the Surgeon

1999 was a turning point in the life of the surgeon. He had an accident (the front brakes on a motorcycle jammed), he was in a coma for 2 weeks. After a serious accident, Alexander became closer to the church, Orthodoxy. After that, the famous actor and screenwriter Ivan Okhlobystin, who later joined the ranks of Wolves, became a frequent guest at Sexton. Such a religious attitude of the leader of the bikers contributed to the split among the "Wolves". Many have seceded, the Night Wolves' monopoly has come to an end. Zaldostanov did not win back the leadership, but started restoring the Sexton bike center.


During this period, the Surgeon even renounced the motorcycles of foreign firms and preferred the Russian Ural. After that, the famous actor and screenwriter Ivan Okhlobystin, who later joined the ranks of Wolves, became a frequent guest at Sexton.


Alexander Zaldostanov leads an active public life. In all interviews, the Surgeon claims that he is far from politics, but the influence of the Night Wolves movement on the public masses is palpable. Alexander promotes in the ranks of young people love for the motherland, patriotism, respect for the history of the country, cultivates the Orthodox faith. In 2013, Alexander was awarded the Order of Honor for his active work with youth.


"Night Wolves" arrange festivals, rallies, motorcycle shows dedicated to the victory of the Soviet people in the Great patriotic war, the battle of Stalingrad, the battle in Sevastopol. Zaldostanov, despite the dissatisfaction of many bikers, participates in religious processions together with representatives of the Orthodox Church, is friends with Vladimir Putin: the president has been to Sexton three times and took part in joint motorcycle races in 2010-2011.


In 2015, the Surgeon, along with actor Mikhail Porechenkov and MMA athlete Yulia Berezikova, initiated the creation of the Anti-Maidan movement, which harshly criticizes the situation in Ukraine and is directed against protest movements that are set to overthrow the government.


In the same year, the Surgeon initiated the inclusion of the Hells Angels and Bandido Nation international motorcycle clubs in the list of undesirable in Russia, capable of causing irreparable influence on the minds of Russian bikers, igniting a color revolution.

Personal life of Alexander Surgeon

Almost nothing is known about the personal life of the Surgeon. Alexander Zaldostanov does not like to raise this topic. At 22, the surgeon married Matilda, a journalist from Germany. Zaldostanov's father-in-law was the director of Mercedes-Benz in Stuttgart. After the wedding, the newlyweds moved to West Berlin. In a foreign land, Alexander had a hard time, perhaps that is why their marriage soon broke up. Also in the press there were assumptions about the novel of the Surgeon and
