Dmitry Alexandrovich Dibrov (Russian: Дмитрий Александрович Дибров) was born on November 14, 1959 in Rostov-on-Don, USSR.

From October 1, 1999 to January 28, 2001, he started broadcasting O, Schastlivchik! (Oh, Lucky Man!) on NTV. On 2002, he started broadcasting Narod Protiv (Russian version of The People Versus) until 2003.

He appeared four times on the hot seat. First time on O, Schastlivchik! (Oh, Lucky Man!), he changed places with Svetlana Sorokina. She thus became his guest host for the New Year's edition, and Dmitry won 32,000 rubles after answering the 11th question wrong.

Later, he appeared on June 21, 2008 with Viktoriya Lopyreva and won 200,000 rubles.

On the third time, the guest host was Leonid Yakubovich, the host of Pole Chudes (Russian version of Wheel of Fortune), and Dmitry won 100,000 rubles on April 3, 2010.

At the fourth time on February 18, 2017, he appeared as a contestant again, being hosted by Maksim Galkin.

In the risk format, he chose 200,000 rubles as a minimum amount, answered the 13th question wrong, lost 200,000 rubles and won his minimum amount. Dmitry periodically changed places with Maksim during the episode.

He also did the voice of Prem Kumar on the Russian dub of Slumdog Millionaire.

Dmitry left the show in June 2022, he was 62 at the time of his last filming, he now is 65 and he has been replaced by Yulianna Karaulova, who was a top prize winner during Dmitry's time at the show.

About leaving the show "O, Schastlivchik!"[]

In his program "Anthropology" on January 22, 2001, Dmitry Dibrov explained about his departure from the "O, Schastlivchik!" show. This is due to those who started unjustified harassment of the NTV channel. As a result, the financial position of the television company was then bad. In addition, the game show also experienced economic difficulties. Interruptions with payment of money for the TV show led to large debts. He personally saw the efforts made by the production team led by Sergey Cordo in order to somehow keep the show on top. He even reached the point where he had to invest his money. This despite the fact that this show is expensive, and the UK project is very expensive. Everyone understood that this situation could not last forever. It got to the point that those financial structures that are related to the show were forced to accept the offer of a more successful ORT (Channel One) channel. Namely, the transfer of the show on ORT. He was also invited by Konstantin Ernst (the General Director) to switch to this channel together with the show. He understood that his efforts and efforts of the team raised the show to the first place. Dibrov did not want to leave NTV, leaving him in a bad position. He explained this to the general manager and his producer. He also advised future producers to treat their successor normally, and if he needs his help, he will not refuse. A month later the show aired with Maxim Galkin on Channel 1.
