Although there are indications that happened in Russia, the Russian authorities assured that they have no reports of such a death. Some Russian media claim that it happened in Dagestan, a Russian republic on the Caspian Sea, and indicate that a man died in those circumstances.

A media from Dagestan even states that the incident happened in the capital Majachkalá, but the local police do not have records of the incident. Another means, however, argues that the incident took place in the city of Kizilyurt, just over an hour from the capital, and adds that the lack of reports is due to what happened in the autumn even though the video appeared on Thursday.

For further confusion, the pro-Kremlin network REN TV said that the circus snake trainer, where it happened was in the Siberian city of Barnaul, 3600 kilometers from Moscow, but the locals quickly rejected it saying that the location shown does not match any scenario in the region.
