Russayev asked, Why not refuse? According to the authors, Komarov answered: "If I don't make this flight, they'll send the backup pilot instead." That was Yuri Gagarin. Vladimir Komarov couldn't do that to his friend. "That's Yura," the book quotes him saying, "and he'll die instead of me. We've got to take care of him." Komarov then burst into tears.
And then Gagarin dies less than a year later anyway.

The next year Yuri Gargarin was killed by the Soviet government when he told a "friend" (who turned out to be a KGB operative assigned to monitor the cosmonaut national hero) that he was going public with the information he knew about the death of his friend, Komarov.
He was also going to denounce the corrupt Soviet system while on a foreign goodwill tour with his family.
His military jet blew up while he was training a new cosmonaut trainee. The official explanation for the explosion was a "technical equipment malfunction."

I'm pretty sure the story about the transmissions are a hoax, but the background about the crash are true.
Go to 1:30 to see the footage.

i don't know which would suck worse. plummeting from outerspace to a fiery death or sitting on the bottom of the ocean in submarine just waiting for your oxygen to run out.
what really sucks about that one he actually re-entered the atmosphere successfully. failed parachute killed him.

I think the former.
Picture: you are the best of the best your entire life.
Achievement after achievement gives you this great opportunity.
Upon which failure after failure, are thrown at you. Oversights cripple intended contingency plans.
But you know what? frick that noise. You didn't get where you are by collecting fricking bottle caps. You are among the elite and you will handle this shite.
And you succeeded, Goddammit! You improvised and scienced the shite out the situation decades before Mark Watney was born.
Only for it all to be for naught, because some third shift plant worker, who was probably drunk, didn't connect a control line for the chute correctly.
And the supervisor intended to QA his work was a sterling Party member who was off boffing some chick.
And for this, you will die, and there isn't a damned thing you can do for the 40 seconds before you do.

Good post. The delima between Karmanov and Gagarin is interesting. And then the soviets kill Gagarin shortly after and make it look like an accident.
I got to see a Soyuz return capsule yesterday at a muesem in Prague. This is from the 1970s

Years ago a colleague of mine told me this story. He was stationed in Turkey with the Air Force listening in on the Russian transmissions . He actually heard and recorded this.
