Dmitri Shepilov was a Muscovite competitor at the Sixty-sixth Winter Games. His event was the five-kilometer ski jump and so he competed on Mimas, a moon of Saturn. He was from a guards regiment of Muscovite ski troops and saw combat against Siberia in the Ural skirmishes a few years previously.
Shepilov jumped immediately after Shukri al-Kuwatly. He was cleared to start his run five minutes after al-Kuwatly, and so was at the top of his trajectory when the latter was murdered. He appeared to raise his right arm to point, when his helmet also became surrounded by mist. He, too, lifelessly continued his path for seven minutes, and landed as limply as al-Kuwatly. The Interplanetary Broadcasting Company camera continually followed his last jump.
