'''3 Guys 1 Hammer''' is a Ukrainian [[shock video]] recorded on July 12, 2007. It depicts two 19-year-olds, Viktor Sayenko and Igor Suprunyuk, brutally beating Sergei Yatzenko, a 48-year-old man who was recovering from surgery on his throat for cancer, leaving him unable to speak, to death in the woods. The two men became known as "The Dnepropetrovsk Maniacs." Before Sergei Yatzenko’s murder, they had already killed approximately six other people. Sayenko, Suprunyuk, and their friend, who was not involved in their murders, Alexander Hanzha, were eventually arrested on July 23, 2007, and went on trial for a total of 21 murders. After being found guilty on February 11, 2009, Sayenko and Suprunyuk of murder and Hanzha of two armed robberies that took place before the murder spree, Sayenko and Suprunyuk were sentenced to life imprisonment while Hanzha got nine years.<ref>https://casefilepodcast.com/case-92-dnepropetrovsk-maniacs</ref> | |||
On the day of Yatzenko’s murder, the victim in 3 Guys 1 Hammer, July 12, was reported missing by his wife after he failed to arrive home after telling her earlier that day he was going out on his Dnepr motorcycle and would return by the evening. There is footage showing the two men complaining about something in Ukrainian. After a few seconds, they notice Sergei Yatzenko riding his Dnepr motorcycle. As soon as he gets near, they kick his wheels, causing the motorcycle to fall over. The boys trapped him in the woods before he was killed. The murderers' previous murder scene was two teenage boys in Pidhorodne, named Andrei Sidyuk and Vadim Lyakhov, who were brutally attacked while they were fishing. Vadim managed to escape by hiding in the woods. The maniacs then killed Sergei. | |||

The two men became known as "The Dnepropetrovsk Maniacs." Before Sergei Yatzenko’s murder, they had already killed approximately six other people. Sayenko, Suprunyuk, and their friend, who was not involved in their murders, Alexander Hanzha, were eventually arrested on July 23, 2007, and went on trial for a total of 21 murders. After being found guilty on February 11, 2009, Sayenko and Suprunyuk of murder and Hanzha of two armed robberies that took place before the murder spree, Sayenko and Suprunyuk were sentenced to life imprisonment while Hanzha got nine years.[1]
On the day of Yatzenko’s murder, the victim in 3 Guys 1 Hammer, July 12, was reported missing by his wife after he failed to arrive home after telling her earlier that day he was going out on his Dnepr motorcycle and would return by the evening.
