The terrible accident that happened at the mine claimed the life of the head of the family.
Years of youth
For some time, Dmitry, his mother and older sister continued to live in Baku, and then decided to move to Minsk. It was in this city that the adolescence of the future theater and film star passed. Up to the 9th grade, Dmitry Shcherbina was a round honors pupil, whose photograph for many years flaunted on the Board of Honor. Mom was always proud of her son and dreamed that he would become a lawyer and build a good career.
Sports prevented from graduating from school with an honorary gold medal, which Dima predicted as a teacher. He simply loved football, was an avid fan, tried not to miss a single match of his favorite team, and soon he wanted to become a football player himself. Shcherbina began to seriously train, devoting less and less time to study. After a while, he realized that football was not his path, but it was simply impossible to return to an excellent certificate, and entering the law faculty with fours was pointless. So Dmitry Shcherbina did not become a lawyer.
