Colonel Alexey Zubkov - an employee for the Russian Investigative Committee - is fighting for his life after he plummeted 40ft from a bathroom window, according to Telegram channel VChK-OGPU.

Miraculously, Col. Zubkov was ‘conscious’ after his fall and ‘briskly answered questions’ but was unable to explain the reasons for his plunge.

    They’ve got to do something about those damn windows; everyone of them sounds like a safety hazard.

    Hard for us to know whether they’re being punished for failure or are trying to stand up to Putin from within.

    Gravity. The reason for the plunge is gravity.

      Yeah, but it’s actually a common misconception that plunge or falling will kill you. It’s in fact, completely harmless. It’s the sudden stop at the end that’s dangerous.
