Text here too:
"Far Eastern Federal University as a university merged out of four previously existing universities, has been around only since 2011, therefore it could not award degrees in 1985. Back then it would be called Far Eastern State University, and this is how the university is credited amongst the students who have graduated back then in their resumes. Usually, the names of the university where the researcher has graduated from is not mentioned in the articles. Besides, in 1985 this university would not award M.S. degrees as back then the only similar degree awarded would be SpecialistDegree. We were unable to track people listed in the credits section of the article among our employees list. Most last names listed in the Credits sections are put in such a manner that they would probably not exist in the Russian language. Previkni translates from Russian as “get used to it”, which is a verb form of a word and which is highly atypical for Russian last names. Aldurei Vladimirov’s first name looks like miss-spelled name Andrei. “Dr. Lenin-Krovik” would also probably not exist as it is somewhat close to “Washington-the-Rabbit” last name if you compare it to the English-language equivalency. Not sure if we can judge the research content of the article, but the last names listed in the credits section sound like a joke. Besides, this is not how you would put the names of the persons involved in research in the publication. Usually they appear on the top of the front page of the article, and list co-authors involved in writing the articles, and do not include administrators. "
So the entire thing was faked?
Well, I contacted that University after I was unable to find anything about that "study" from internet. I tried to search with those names and also in Russian language and result was 0. When some study is valid, there is always more information somewhere. So I wrote to University and reply is there in my earlier posting. If someone has doubts, it´s easy to write there and ask.
But yes, those people don´t exist, so that document is fake, there is no doubt about it.
If you look that document and real studies from researchgate, you notice soon differences to real ones as that person who replied to me pointed out.
There is another claimed study about muscle fibres in this thread and I think, that it´s fake too, which is pity.
I started to doubt that strength study because after thinking a moment, those results were just too good to be true. I mean approximately claimed to be 80 kg bear pulling weights, which even full grown male tigers or lions couldn´t unless on wheels. Common sense tells, that it´s simply impossible. Big bears are without a doubt the strongest terrestrial predatory animals, but not small bears.
