Born on November 6, 1938 in Smolensk.
Graduated from Odessa University (1969).
The only candidate of philosophical sciences in the world who can jump out of a helicopter so as to land without a bruise, and he does not burn in a fire and, in general, gets away with it under the most incredible circumstances. Although the ability to come up with something more extreme for yourself is the essence of Zharikov’s second profession, who replaced peaceful teaching life with a risky share of a stuntman. At the age of thirty, Zharikov, who served in special forces, performed his first trick. Now he has more than 80 films behind him, among them such famous as “Artagnan and the Three Musketeers”, “Pirates of the twentieth century”, “The meeting place cannot be changed”, where Zharikov duplicated Fox, a police officer who is hit by a car, as well as a long-suffering waitress in a restaurant, thrown out of a window. Zharikov owns all types of weapons, performs mind-blowing tricks behind the wheel of a car, in the crowd he is a strongman of average height, absolutely does not stand out, and on the roads in his “Zhigulyakh” is noticeable by ideal behavior. Zharikov was born in 1938, but in psychological tests gives a head start to young stuntmen. His reputation as a professional is solid and flawless. It seems that it is time to reap fame and money, the blessing of today’s cinema turned into a stunt. And here the unpredictable Zharikov throws out a new number: organizes his private film company Mustang. So to speak, on bare enthusiasm, and also on the firm conviction that by letting the base human passions roam on the screen, cinema is doing a dirty job. Zharikov needs "another movie" He set out a truly fantastic idea: to bring back to the screen a real man who has no unnatural tendencies, and well-trained muscles are nothing more than an addition to the brain and soul. Despite the fact that in the cinema Zharikov a quarter of a century, the "masters" pretend that he is not noticed. The first film, shot on "Mustang" - autobiographical, not accidentally called "Stranger". With his "firstborn" Zharikov was invited to France to the festival of Russian cinema.
There is Latvian cinema, Georgian, Ukrainian, whatever, but Russian. The congress hall of the city of San Rafael was filled to capacity, - says Vladimir Yurievich, - the festival was blessed by the head of the Orthodox Church in France. Present was Grand Duchess Maria Vladimirovna, descendants of the Russian nobility, who took the most ardent part in its conduct. The jury of the festival included stars of world cinema, and in the end all agreed to hold festivals of Russian cinema in France annually. Zharikov returned with a trophy: the audience prize for the production of the film and the performance of the main role.
Wife of Vladimir Yurievich engineer-technologist. My son graduates from a biofaculty at a Canadian university. Svetlana’s daughter studies at the Odessa Agricultural Institute. How does the famous stuntman escape stress? He's landing in his garden. He does not like politicians or politicians. Neither past nor present. It is completely disconnected from their ideas and calls. Which I wish you all very much.
