Alexander climbed a manhole shaft into the sewer in Tolyatti, Samara Oblast, after becoming homeless with his husband. parting.

He survived on what he could beg from the locals before being spotted by Russian blogger Anton Gletcherov.

When he came across Alexander, the blogger said there was no smell of it alcohol but his speech was slow, most probably due to a heart attack.

Fascinated by the man’s sad story, Gletcherov set out to find out more about Alexander’s family.

Then the blogger discovered that the divorced woman still had close relatives in Togliatti, Ulyanovsk and even Moscow.

They thought Alexander had died fifteen years ago and promised to come pick Alexander up, but then never showed up and stopped answering calls.

Gletcherov is now trying to find Alexander a place in a homeless shelter.

Alexander, whose age was not revealed, said he was ready to work to live in a normal home.

It comes after a man has shared how he decided to live in a cave and not spend a cent after he got sick from paying the rent.

Daniel Shellabarger, also known as Suelo, managed to live for 16 years without using any form of currency, but a tragic change in his life made him return to cash.

It was in 2009 when Daniel made the drastic decision to give up all his possessions and live in a cave near Moab, Utah.

He led a frugal but completely happy life, living off the food he found in the city’s garbage bins, from traffic victims and from the vegetables growing around his new home.

But in 2016, he had to leave his peaceful cave and return home to care for his parents.

Daniel appeared in an episode of Only people and explained his reasons behind his decision to give up money.

He said: ‘I’ve probably slept in caves longer since the mid-1990s than I’ve lived without money.

“Once I had a respectable job in the city, I decided I didn’t want to pay more and live outside.”

He continues the tour of his cave and shows where his makeshift bed is: a cardboard box and a blanket.

Showing off his “kitchen”, he explains that he eats food he finds in the garbage can because “so much of it gets thrown away” and insists that he has never gotten sick from anything he has fished out of a garbage can.

Daniel claims he did not use or accept any money during that period, nor did he receive any money food stamps or government financing.

Although he admits that he struggled at first, he eventually discovered that he is happier without money.
