The bizarre video showed these fighters trying to race across a muddy field.
Unable to use their road-appropriate e-scooters on the grass, the doomed fighters dragged their scooters across.
These desperate Russian fighters' poor attempt was recorded by a Ukrainian drone.
The three Russians were blitzed and taken out by the same drones that filmed their feeble attempt.

These e-scooters were reportedly Chinese, according to a social media .
Russia has thrown e-scooters, motorcycles, and quad bikes at its troops as a way to quickly move across the front line.
Ukrainian Colonel Pavlenko-Kryzheshevskyi explained why Russia has chosen to split some of it's soldiers up on these odd war transport choices, according to The New York Times.
He said: "Hitting just one piece of equipment carrying 15 people, well, that’s possible, it can be done quite easily.

"But when those 15 people are riding electric scooters, then that’s a very big problem.
"For them, it’s quite normal to use 150 to 200 soldiers at a time for offensive actions."
Trump can crush Russia but Putin is playing him, says Bill Browder
This has been one of the bizarre modes of transport Russian troops have been forced to use three years into the terror invasion of Ukraine.
Moscow's men had become so desperate in their illegal war that they resorted to one of the oldest ways to get around.
Putin's troops used donkeys and horses to carry ammunition into Ukraine.
Despite spending billions on missiles and arms, Moscow had oddly gone back to using animals rather than tanks.
The deployed animals reportedly even included camels and deer.
Military blogger Kirill Fedorov revealed Putin sent the poor animals to the front line last month, on a Telegram post.
He said: "The fighters were given a donkey to deliver ammunition to the front line.
"What did you expect? Cars are in short supply these days."
A video of Russian soldiers riding on donkeys was also shared by Ukrainian official Anton Gerashchenko.
Moscow also unveiled their barmiest "turtle tank" yet, as their armour supplies dwindle three years into the invasion.

Footage from Russian state TV showed a Soviet-era BMP-1 coated in metal sheets and bizarre hair-like bristles as it ploughed through the battlefield.
The spiked, "hairy" vehicle was spotted near Chasiv Yar in the Donetsk region, where Moscow’s troops were steadily advancing in February.
