The footage has been downloaded and posted on several different websites many times. There are multiple versions of this video, including some without color or audio. The original version is around 16-20 seconds long and begins with a young Russian soldier lying sideways on the ground, with a Chechen insurgent stepping on his head with black war boots. The insurgent stabs the soldier in the neck with a knife and quickly beheads him. The video ends with the now-dead and decapitated Russian soldier lying in a growing pool of blood from his neck.
