Evgeni Plushenko, along with his wife and son, is in Japan, where the skater has three shows scheduled for his tour. However, working as an artist in Japan, which is 70% mountainous, is not easy and even dangerous. And Plushenko and Rudkovskaya realized this from their own experience. The star family fell into the epicenter of a strong earthquake.

Another earthquake hit Japan the day before, the strength of the tremors in the city of Kobe was 6.1 points. The element took the star family by surprise in the early morning. Yana, Eugene and Sasha were sleeping in the hotel when the walls suddenly began to shake. When the siren went off, the guests had no time for sleep.

“Today we experienced a magnitude 6 earthquake. Plaster fell in the room. Until the trains run and we cannot get to Osaka from Kobe. Everyone has a slight shock, Zhenya has been traveling to Japan for 20 years, but he experienced such a strong earthquake here for the first time in his life,”wrote Yana Rudkovskaya.

The consequences of the disaster were sad: more than 200 people were injured, and many buildings were also destroyed.

Let us remind you that Plushenko came to Japan with the Fantasy on Ice program. And the famous skater is accompanied on the ice by his five-year-old son, who has already shocked the Japanese with the original number "Dedication to Michael Jackson". In Osaka, the next planned show of the skater should take place, the newspaper "7 Days" writes.
