A 14-year-old girl from the Volga Republic of Mari El hanged herself on May 21 over fears that the world would end, investigators said on Wednesday.
May 21 was the day that American preacher Harold Camping said Christians would be taken into heaven ahead of the apocalypse.
Investigator Alexander Kosharin said the girl’s behavior changed dramatically when she learned about Camping’s predictions.
“Whales are trying to beach themselves and birds are dying - it is just the beginning of the end,” the girl wrote in a “death diary.”
“We are not righteous people, only they will go to heaven, the others will stay here on Earth to go through terrible sufferings,” she wrote.
“I don’t want to die like the others. That’s why I’ll die now,” the girl said in her last message.
Investigators are currently probing her ties with “informal youth groups” or religious sects.

Harold Camping sounds like he plagiarized Jehovah's Witnesses.
Jehovah Witnesses are a spin-off of the second Adventist which all came from the Millerite movement.American war of 1812 army captain William Miller is ground zero for Jehovah's Witnesses.
Yes,the "great disappointment" of Oct 22 1844 has never died out... it lives on in the Jehovah's Witnesses.
The central CORE doctrine of the Watchtower,yes the reason the Watchtower came into existence was to declare Jesus second coming in 1914.When the prophecy (derived from William Miller of 1842) failed they said that he came "invisibly".
