Russian Couple Fakes Death to Get Out of Debt

The concept of faking one's own death is the source of so many movies and songs and TV shows and urban legends, it would be hard to even begin to name them all. I mean, theories that some of our most famous entertainers ever--Elvis, Tupac among them--are faking their own death are so commonplace that we casually joke about them and reference them.

But what about people who actually do it so as to avoid having to take responsibility for their actions, or to avoid trouble they might be facing? Well, those people are the exact type of people we're discussing today, so buckle up because we're going way international on this one.
