Anatoli Yevgenyevich Kozhemyakin (Russian: Анатолий Евгеньевич Кожемякин, 24 February 1953 – 13 October 1974) was a Soviet football player. He died in a freak accident: he was stuck in an elevator, but was able to open the elevator doors; as he tried to climb out, the elevator started moving again and crushed him to death.[1]
Kozhemyakin made his debut for USSR on 29 March 1972 (aged 19) in a friendly against Bulgaria. He played in a 1974 FIFA World Cup qualifier against Chile. The USSR team did not go to the return game against Chile in protest against the Augusto Pinochet regime.
