The man in the kettle is scandalous Christian tycoon German Sterligov himself. He explained in the footage that this was a great way "to treat various diseases. You just sit and kick back." The recipe for the healing stew the entrepreneur was boiling in included herbs and a lot of salt.
Sterligov is very proud of his kettle, which, according to him, is 200 years old and made from real copper, "not the modern one, produced with the use of harmful chemicals." The vessel, which was hanging on massive chains that seemed strong enough to hold a dragon from 'Game of Thrones,' could boil 500 liters of water, he boasted.
The video was apparently shot at Sterligov's ranch outside Moscow where the entrepreneur, who made a fortune after the fall of the USSR, retreated when he got tired of city life.
He said that he had no plans to keep the healing pot to himself and invited everyone to come and take a bath. However, he pointed out that only one patient could be accepted per day as disinfecting the kettle takes hours. Sterligov didn't reveal the price of the procedure, but he earlier made headlines for selling a simple loaf of bread for $10 because it was made from "environmentally pure" ingredients from his farm.

The businessman follows and preaches a fundamentalist version of Russian Christianity, rejected by the country's Orthodox Church. He's also known for his anti-gay views, with the doors of the farm stores Sterligov formerly ran famously equipped with explicit signs warning that homosexuals would not be served. Also on sale were rods to physically punish misbehaving kids.

‘Cute, competent, obedient’: Russian gay-bashing orthodox tycoon looks for new assistant

The announcement, which some might consider the very definition of sexist, was posted by German Sterligov on his Facebook page.
“I am looking for a personal assistant: cute, competent, and obedient. I’ll provide food and clothes and 100,000 rubles (about $1,800) a month for ice cream. The job is to do what I say. Work hours are irregular. The work will be in shifts, three months on, three months off.”
The businessman is among the more peculiar individuals who made their fortune following the collapse of the Soviet Union. He has since settled down on a large farm near Moscow – where two personal assistants will live in rotating shifts. Sterligov also has some particular requirements for the age: “the younger the better; I’m in my 60s and I have noticed that women’s moods worsen with age.”

Sterligov asks candidates to send photos, or better, videos with them speaking, and posted a picture of the previous girl to hold the job, saying that this is the “lowest benchmark” for appearance. He added that having a college degree would count against the candidate, and being married, divorced, or a mother would be an instant disqualifier.
The married father-of-five apparently takes the task very seriously, he said. “Choosing a personal assistant is bigger than choosing a horse,” he wrote.
Sterligov has a long record of initiatives that have raised many an eyebrow. For instance, he once ran several farm stores in Moscow and other Russian cities which had a policy of not serving gay people – stated proudly in offensive language on the front door. Among the products for sale were rods for disciplining children.
Perhaps not surprisingly, the business did not go well. There were multiple complaints about discrimination as well as the pricing policy – for example, $10 for a loaf of bread just because it was made from “environmentally pure” products from his farm.
Sterligov preaches a fundamentalist version of Russian Christianity, which is not shared by any church, and apparently tries to live accordingly.
