for some reason that named popped into my head last night, so i went on wikipedia, but it didn't tell me much. does anyone know anything about this dude? he seems really interesting.
personal advisor to tsar nicolas II of russia. holy man. early 1900's. basically got too influential in there (queen kept him around because she thought he could heal her son) so they killed him. it's actually a really interesting story. invited him for dinner and lured him in with the guy's wife. fed him poison. didn't die after quite a large dose. shot him multiple times, still didn't die. finally ended after they wrapped him up in a rug and threw him in a river.
