Another Russian Oligarch, Dmitry Zelenov, Dies Under Mysterious Circumstances

Isn’t it time to recognize that the word “mysterious” no longer applies in such stories? Why not just say “Another Russian Oligarch, [insert name], Dies Under Circumstances”?

How long is a football field in Russia?

Typically 105 Metres I believe. But somewhere between 90 and 120m is regulation.

So 533 ft. is 162ist metres so that’s maybe a shade over 1.5 times the length of a typical pitch.

The math would appear to be quite a bit off indeed.

Unhelpful fact! It is just over the length of five bowling lanes.
