The little which is known about his childhood was most likely passed down by his family members. He had two known siblings, a sister called Maria and an older brother named Dmitri. His sister Maria, who was said to have been epileptic, drowned in a river. One day, when X was playing with his brother, Dmitri fell into a pond and X jumped in to save him. They were both pulled out of the water by a passer-by but Dmitri later died of pneumonia. Both fatalities affected X and he subsequently named two of his children Maria and Dmitri. The myths surrounding X portray him as showing indications of supernatural powers throughout his childhood. One ostensible example of these reputed powers was when Efim, X’s father, had one of his horses stolen and it was claimed that X was able to identify the man who had committed the theft. X’s death is also surrounded by mystery. X was found poisoned, shot four times, badly beaten, and drowned, and his body later was recovered from a river. An autopsy established that the cause of death was drowning. It was found that he had indeed been poisoned, and that the poison alone should have been enough to kill him. There is a report that after his body was recovered, water was found in the lungs, supporting the idea that he was still alive before submersion into the partially frozen river. ID this badass who’s been portrayed a lot of times in popular culture.
