The challenge was to find any of the eight people with Bacon number 8. Stefan Kahrs of the U.K. submitted the following answer and won himself a Bacon tape:

Vasilyev, Dmitri has a Bacon number of 8:

Vasilyev, Dmitri was in Plenniki morya (1928) with Savin, P.
Savin, P. was in Chyorny parus (1929) with Shaternikova, Nina
Shaternikova, Nina was in Krusheva (1928) with Tenin, Boris
Tenin, Boris was in Chelovek s rushyom (1938) with Straukh, Maksim

An honorable mention also goes to David Griffeath of Wisconsin for submitting the name of another actor in "Plenniki morya (1928)" with Bacon number 8 after Stefan. Congratulations Stefan and David, and I hope that everyone enjoyed the Bacon challenge.
