Russian influencer Tatyana Ozolina, popularly known as MotoTanya, died in a motorcycle accident near the Turkish town of Milas in the province of Muğla. At 38, Ozolina lost control of her BMW motorcycle and collided with a truck, resulting in her immediate death due to the impact.
According to initial investigations by the local police, Ozolina may have lost control of her vehicle after being hit by another motorcyclist who crossed her path. Although emergency services quickly arrived at the scene of the accident, they were unable to save the Russian influencer. Her travelling companion, Turkish motorcyclist Onur Obut, was injured, while a third companion was unharmed.
Tatyana Ozolina was a beloved figure in the world of motorcycling and travel, amassing over five million followers on TikTok and one million on Instagram. Her YouTube odysseys, where she shared her motorcycle adventures, had several million views.
Recently, Ozolina was involved in a controversy when she was denied entry to the European Union through Greece, due to the war between Russia and Ukraine. The influencer expressed her discontent on social media, regretting not being able to make her trip through Europe, which led her to change her plans and travel to Turkey.
«“MotoTanya is no longer with us. She had a bright and beautiful life. Millions of people followed her,” Andrei Ivanov, head of the MotoMoscow Association, wrote on social networks. “Perhaps there is not a single biker in the country who would have been indifferent to Tatyana. She was adored, envied, admired, copied, awarded as one of the best bloggers, and at the same time discussed and slandered. Now only her memory remains. Rest in peace.”»
