  2. GRIGORY RASPUTIN , A SCARY PERSON
    Today in this magacine, we are going to talk about who was Gregory Rasputin and the most shocking think, How did he die?
    Gregory Rasputin was a russian mystic who had a great influence on the last tsar of Russia, being accused of espionage in the first world war.
    Something interesting about Rasputin is that he tried to look like Jesus Christ, he had a violent,rude and overhelming character, as well as a striking look.
    He died on December 16, 1916 in the Yusupov Palace in Rusia
    And finally, the most shocking thing, how he died?
    The most important character in his death is Yusupov, he took Rasputin to the palace, where in the basement, he was poisoned, but shockingly, he did not die, so he shot him in the back. Rasputin fell to the ground and a few minutes later he woke up, cursing Yusupov and escaping where he finally died from 2 more shots, in the head and shoulder, after which he was thrown into the frozen lake, but the most shocking thing is that he did not die from the shots, if not hypothermia.

  4. Rasputin: The Shadow of the Tsar
    Grigori Yefimovich Rasputin (1869-1916) was a Russian mystic with great influence in the final days of the Romanov dynasty. Rasputin lived in a crucial moment of Russian history, especially during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This period is marked by the decline of the Russian Empire and the eventual Russian Revolution.
    Grigori Rasputin was known for his imposing and peculiar appearance, standing at approximately 1.90 meters tall with a robust build. His thick and unkempt beard, along with his penetrating and magnetic eyes, contributed to his mystical image. Rasputin possessed a profound charisma and an enigmatic personality that made him stand out, despite his careless attire and controversial reputation in the Russian imperial court.
    Finally, in 1916, Yusupov descended to the basement with his Browning handgun and shot Rasputin several times while he looked at a silver crucifix. Rasputin fell, theoretically dead. They planned to take the corpse to his house to make it appear as though the murder occurred there.

  6. LÚA:
    Grigori Rasputin was a Russian mystic and holy man. He is best known for having befriended the imperial family of Nicholas II, the last Emperor of Russia.
    He lived while the WW1 was starting (1914).
    With his penetrating gaze he won the trust of the tsar of Russia.
    They devised a plot to assassinate him, tried to poison him, shoot him but nothing worked and ended up throwing him into the river in chains where he drowned.
