The Dyatlov Pass Incident: How Did 9 Hikers Die? | Outdoor Disaster

1
00:00:00,500 --> 00:00:03,179
Tatiana: The DL off pass is probably
one of the greatest mountain

2
00:00:03,200 --> 00:00:05,630
mysteries in somewhat recent times.

3
00:00:05,960 --> 00:00:09,350
And if you haven't heard of this story
yet, while you're in for a treat.

4
00:00:09,850 --> 00:00:13,660
The truth is this incident is
so well-documented up until the

5
00:00:13,660 --> 00:00:15,700
time of everything going wrong.

6
00:00:15,890 --> 00:00:19,160
That the mind-boggling part
is the simplest explanation

7
00:00:19,370 --> 00:00:20,450
could be the right one.

8
00:00:20,870 --> 00:00:24,470
But for many, the simplest
explanation just doesn't add up.

9
00:00:24,970 --> 00:00:28,870
You might just leave this episode, a
full blown conspiracy theorist, like a

10
00:00:28,870 --> 00:00:30,700
lot of people who hear this tragic tale.

11
00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:32,820
I'm your host Tatiana.

12
00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:34,820
And this is occurrence.

13
00:00:43,602 --> 00:00:46,421
So the dyatlov pass incident
is actually named after one of

14
00:00:46,421 --> 00:00:47,981
the hikers on the expedition.

15
00:00:48,481 --> 00:00:53,431
Igor dyatlov love and forgive me because
while I work with, and for native

16
00:00:53,431 --> 00:00:57,871
born Russians and Ukrainians, I still
struggle with their languages, but I

17
00:00:57,871 --> 00:01:00,211
will do my best not to butcher this.

18
00:01:00,711 --> 00:01:01,131
So.

19
00:01:01,631 --> 00:01:05,441
A group was formed for a skiing
expedition and led by Igor Dyatlov.

20
00:01:05,871 --> 00:01:09,711
A radio engineering student atat
Uriel Polytechnical Institute inhat

21
00:01:09,731 --> 00:01:11,261
was the Soviet union at the time?

22
00:01:11,761 --> 00:01:15,181
Almost everyone in the group
were graduate students and taking

23
00:01:15,181 --> 00:01:16,321
a break from their studies.

24
00:01:16,821 --> 00:01:19,461
The group was made up of
eight men and two women.

25
00:01:19,961 --> 00:01:20,920
Besides Igor.

26
00:01:21,420 --> 00:01:26,041
There was Yuri Doroshenko, who was
impulsive and reserved, but brave

27
00:01:26,071 --> 00:01:29,281
and said to have chased off a bear
once to help fellow adventurers.

28
00:01:29,781 --> 00:01:33,081
There was Ludmila Dubinina a
and she wasfourth year student

29
00:01:33,110 --> 00:01:34,431
and the youngest in the group.

30
00:01:34,931 --> 00:01:36,631
There was Georgiy Krivoshenko.

31
00:01:37,031 --> 00:01:40,931
and he was the joker of the group and
always tagged alonalong with Igor's trips.

32
00:01:41,431 --> 00:01:42,360
Alexander Cola.

33
00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:46,081
Kolevatov was a fourth year
student and he had just celebrated

34
00:01:46,081 --> 00:01:48,151
his birthday on January 30th.

35
00:01:48,571 --> 00:01:50,491
Only two days before this trip.

36
00:01:50,991 --> 00:01:51,801
nikolai the.

37
00:01:51,860 --> 00:01:56,001
Over NOLs graduated in
1958 as a civil engineer.

38
00:01:56,031 --> 00:01:59,451
And he was very popular, still
around campus and very well known.

39
00:01:59,951 --> 00:02:03,011
Zenaida Komogorova was
a fifth year student.

40
00:02:03,041 --> 00:02:07,361
And she was said to be the engine of the
university due to her ideas, outgoing

41
00:02:07,361 --> 00:02:09,821
personality and being so well-liked.

42
00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:13,961
RusRustin Slobodin had graduated in 1958o.

43
00:02:14,221 --> 00:02:17,521
And he was known as being
adventurous and a man, a few words.

44
00:02:18,051 --> 00:02:22,372
Semyon Zolotorov was an instructor
and the oldest in the group.

45
00:02:22,872 --> 00:02:24,041
And he went by Sasha.

46
00:02:24,541 --> 00:02:25,831
He served in the military.

47
00:02:26,131 --> 00:02:29,401
And join the expedition by recommendations
of member of the sports team.

48
00:02:29,901 --> 00:02:31,311
And then there was Yuri Yudin.

49
00:02:31,871 --> 00:02:34,211
And he was the sole survivor of this trip.

50
00:02:34,711 --> 00:02:36,091
They were all experienced hikers.

51
00:02:36,091 --> 00:02:39,061
So the trip should have been
manageable and doable for everyone.

52
00:02:39,481 --> 00:02:43,441
The purpose of the trip was to upgrade
their certifications because everyone

53
00:02:43,441 --> 00:02:47,581
was a grade two with skin structure
certifications, and would become grade

54
00:02:47,611 --> 00:02:49,381
three upon returning from the trip.

55
00:02:49,881 --> 00:02:53,271
At the time grade three was the
highest certification in the Soviet

56
00:02:53,271 --> 00:02:58,171
union and your required people to
have traversed 190 miles to obtain it.

57
00:02:58,671 --> 00:03:02,061
Their goal was to make it to, or
Torin about 10 miles away from

58
00:03:02,061 --> 00:03:03,501
where the incident takes place.

59
00:03:04,001 --> 00:03:06,941
It was considered a difficult
time of year to hike because in

60
00:03:06,941 --> 00:03:08,861
February it was the thick of winter.

61
00:03:09,131 --> 00:03:13,151
But with the amount of experience between
everyone in the group, it was not believed

62
00:03:13,151 --> 00:03:15,251
to be anything too intense for them to do.

63
00:03:15,751 --> 00:03:16,801
The route was designed by Eagers.

64
00:03:16,861 --> 00:03:17,371
Where's group.

65
00:03:17,611 --> 00:03:21,121
To reach the far Northern regions
of this bird loss and the upper

66
00:03:21,151 --> 00:03:22,681
streams of a river nearby.

67
00:03:23,181 --> 00:03:26,931
The city, route commission approved
the route and they confirmed a group

68
00:03:26,931 --> 00:03:30,021
of 10 people on January 8th, 1959.

69
00:03:30,521 --> 00:03:34,061
On the 23rd, the group was given their
route book and listed their course

70
00:03:34,061 --> 00:03:35,741
as following the number five trail.

71
00:03:36,241 --> 00:03:39,901
And they actually left the city on that
same day, they received the route book.

72
00:03:40,401 --> 00:03:43,131
At the time it listed
approval for 11 people.

73
00:03:43,631 --> 00:03:47,951
The 11 person was Simion Who was
previously supposed to go with another

74
00:03:47,951 --> 00:03:49,721
expedition of similar difficulty.

75
00:03:50,051 --> 00:03:53,441
But like I said before, it was
suggested to join this group through

76
00:03:53,441 --> 00:03:54,761
the sports team at the school.

77
00:03:55,261 --> 00:03:57,211
So everyone arrived by train to idle.

78
00:03:57,631 --> 00:04:00,121
Uh, town at the center of
the Northern province on the

79
00:04:00,121 --> 00:04:01,981
early morning of January 25th.

80
00:04:02,481 --> 00:04:05,571
They then took a trip to Vishay,
which was Uh, Lori village.

81
00:04:05,601 --> 00:04:07,851
That is the last inhabited
settlement up north.

82
00:04:08,351 --> 00:04:11,351
While spending the night there, the
skiers purchased in eight loaves

83
00:04:11,351 --> 00:04:13,931
of bread to keep their energy
levels up for the following days.

84
00:04:13,931 --> 00:04:14,321
Hike.

85
00:04:14,821 --> 00:04:18,271
And on the 27th, they began their
Trek towards Scorah or Torin.

86
00:04:18,271 --> 00:04:18,661
Torin.

87
00:04:19,161 --> 00:04:23,291
The next day, you're a UDAN who had
several health elements, which were a

88
00:04:23,291 --> 00:04:27,581
heart defect and rheumatism turned back
due to knee and joint pain that made

89
00:04:27,581 --> 00:04:29,411
him unable to continue with the journey.

90
00:04:29,911 --> 00:04:31,051
But before leaving.

91
00:04:31,411 --> 00:04:34,111
Igor said that he would send a
telegram to their sports club.

92
00:04:34,381 --> 00:04:36,811
As soon as the group
returned to the Lori village.

93
00:04:37,061 --> 00:04:38,231
That they were at before.

94
00:04:38,731 --> 00:04:41,191
There should have happened
no later than February 12th.

95
00:04:41,441 --> 00:04:45,731
But Igor told you then before he
left the group that he actually

96
00:04:45,731 --> 00:04:47,261
expected to take a little longer.

97
00:04:47,761 --> 00:04:50,851
And this would be a key factor
in the tragedy to follow.

98
00:04:51,351 --> 00:04:54,171
So the remaining nine hikers
continued on their journey and

99
00:04:54,171 --> 00:04:57,891
multiple people in the group had
diaries and cameras and documented.

100
00:04:58,341 --> 00:05:02,061
Very clearly all the groups,
activities leading up to the day

101
00:05:02,091 --> 00:05:03,711
prior to everything going wrong.

102
00:05:04,211 --> 00:05:08,141
On the 31st, the group arrived at the
starting point and prepared to climb.

103
00:05:08,641 --> 00:05:12,451
They store their extra food and equipment
that would be used for the trip back.

104
00:05:12,631 --> 00:05:15,391
And the next day they started
to move through the past.

105
00:05:15,891 --> 00:05:18,981
The plan was for them to get
over the past and make camp the

106
00:05:18,981 --> 00:05:20,901
next night on the opposite side.

107
00:05:21,291 --> 00:05:25,551
But because of snow storms and
limited visibility, they got lost and

108
00:05:25,551 --> 00:05:28,251
veered west towards the top of Cola.

109
00:05:28,751 --> 00:05:31,871
When they realized their mistake,
the group decided to set up camp

110
00:05:31,931 --> 00:05:33,071
on the slope of the mountain.

111
00:05:33,401 --> 00:05:37,031
Instead of moving less than a mile
downhill to a forest that would have

112
00:05:37,031 --> 00:05:38,561
had better shelter from the weather.

113
00:05:39,061 --> 00:05:42,151
It was speculated that Igor either
wanted to practice camping on the

114
00:05:42,151 --> 00:05:45,501
mountain slope, Or he just didn't want
to lose the altitude that they gained.

115
00:05:46,001 --> 00:05:50,291
So the 12 past and no messages had
been received, but there was no

116
00:05:50,291 --> 00:05:55,811
immediate reaction because remember
Igor told URI he expected to be late.

117
00:05:56,311 --> 00:05:59,671
But by February 20th, no one
had heard from the group.

118
00:05:59,971 --> 00:06:03,301
So the relatives demanded a rescue
operation, and the head of the

119
00:06:03,301 --> 00:06:07,181
Institute sent a volunteer group
of fellow students and teachers.

120
00:06:07,407 --> 00:06:11,637
Later the army and police joined providing
helicopters and planes for the effort.

121
00:06:12,057 --> 00:06:16,077
And on the 26, the searchers found
the groups abandoned and damaged tent.

122
00:06:16,577 --> 00:06:18,887
The campsite threw
everyone for a loop, right?

123
00:06:18,947 --> 00:06:21,917
Because it was half torn
and covered with snow.

124
00:06:22,417 --> 00:06:25,627
It was empty and everyone's
belongings and shoes were left behind.

125
00:06:26,127 --> 00:06:30,117
The tent had been cut open from the
inside with nine sets of footprints

126
00:06:30,327 --> 00:06:34,407
left by people wearing only socks,
a single shoe, or a completely

127
00:06:34,407 --> 00:06:35,937
barefoot could be followed.

128
00:06:36,437 --> 00:06:38,777
The footprints went to
the edge of a nearby wood.

129
00:06:39,047 --> 00:06:40,937
On the opposite side of the path.

130
00:06:41,087 --> 00:06:43,577
So away from where they should
have been, trying to go.

131
00:06:44,077 --> 00:06:45,637
Less than a mile Northeast.

132
00:06:45,642 --> 00:06:49,512
And after about 1600 feet, the
tracks were covered with snow.

133
00:06:50,012 --> 00:06:53,852
At the edge of the forest under a
large Siberian pine, the searchers

134
00:06:53,852 --> 00:06:55,622
found the remains of a small fire.

135
00:06:56,122 --> 00:06:58,882
And near the fire where
the first two bodies.

136
00:06:59,382 --> 00:07:03,767
They were Georgie and WinCo The
initial scene showed them to be

137
00:07:03,767 --> 00:07:05,657
shoeless and dressed only in underwear.

138
00:07:05,837 --> 00:07:09,467
The branches on the trees were broken up
to five meters high suggesting that one

139
00:07:09,467 --> 00:07:13,517
of the skiers had climbed up to look for
something, maybe looking for the camp.

140
00:07:14,017 --> 00:07:17,587
Between the tree and the camp, the
searchers found three more bodies.

141
00:07:18,087 --> 00:07:19,167
They were Igor.

142
00:07:19,417 --> 00:07:20,927
Zenaida and Rustin.

143
00:07:21,177 --> 00:07:24,537
Who died in a way that suggested that
they were trying to get back to camp.

144
00:07:25,037 --> 00:07:29,807
They were found at various distances
ranging from 980 feet to a little

145
00:07:29,807 --> 00:07:31,427
over 2000 feet from the tree.

146
00:07:31,977 --> 00:07:34,797
An investigation started
immediately after the first five

147
00:07:34,797 --> 00:07:36,417
bodies were found by the tree.

148
00:07:36,917 --> 00:07:41,027
The medical examiner found no injuries
that might've led to their deaths.

149
00:07:41,087 --> 00:07:43,907
And it was concluded that they
all died from hypothermia.

150
00:07:44,407 --> 00:07:47,467
But I'm going to go through and
go over how they were found.

151
00:07:47,967 --> 00:07:48,327
So.

152
00:07:48,827 --> 00:07:50,567
URI was a brownish purple color.

153
00:07:50,867 --> 00:07:56,402
And he had no shoes on just wool socks on
both feet with the left sock being burned.

154
00:07:56,902 --> 00:08:00,682
He had Livermore to spots on the
back of his neck and torso suggesting

155
00:08:00,682 --> 00:08:02,932
his body had been moved after death.

156
00:08:03,432 --> 00:08:07,902
His ears, nose and lips were covered
with blood and there was a foamy

157
00:08:07,902 --> 00:08:09,762
gray fluid on his right cheek.

158
00:08:10,262 --> 00:08:14,792
And prior to his death, it was
speculated at something or someone.

159
00:08:15,212 --> 00:08:16,832
Was pressing on his chest.

160
00:08:17,192 --> 00:08:19,832
It was similar to the
impact of a car accident.

161
00:08:20,332 --> 00:08:23,392
There were suspicions that it could
have been an interrogation method

162
00:08:23,392 --> 00:08:25,822
by secret police or special forces.

163
00:08:26,322 --> 00:08:28,002
Or just from falling from the tree.

164
00:08:28,502 --> 00:08:31,592
But strangely, that theory
was left out of the.

165
00:08:31,592 --> 00:08:32,402
Autopsy report.

166
00:08:32,902 --> 00:08:36,412
Now Georgia was found in his undershirt
with a long sleeve shirt on top.

167
00:08:36,682 --> 00:08:40,342
He was wearing swimming pants,
long underpants and no shoes.

168
00:08:40,842 --> 00:08:44,922
He had a torn sock on his left foot and
the skin between his teeth suggested

169
00:08:44,922 --> 00:08:46,392
he was biting on his own hands.

170
00:08:46,632 --> 00:08:50,232
To keep them awake to stay on the
tree or to keep his cries quiet.

171
00:08:50,732 --> 00:08:54,182
Igor was found face up with his
head towards the tent to Justin.

172
00:08:54,212 --> 00:08:56,432
He was one of the ones
trying to make it back.

173
00:08:56,932 --> 00:08:59,182
His fists were clenched above the snow.

174
00:08:59,682 --> 00:09:04,602
His jacket wasn't buttoned and He had on
no shoes, but he was wearing one cotton

175
00:09:04,602 --> 00:09:07,272
sock and one wool sock on different feet.

176
00:09:07,772 --> 00:09:10,922
He was a bluish red color
with dried blood on his lips.

177
00:09:11,282 --> 00:09:13,352
And his knuckles had brownish bruises.

178
00:09:13,412 --> 00:09:14,432
Like he was fighting.

179
00:09:14,932 --> 00:09:16,732
But he had no internal injuries.

180
00:09:17,232 --> 00:09:20,502
He was wearing a watch that
stopped working at 5 31.

181
00:09:21,002 --> 00:09:25,532
So NEDA was about 2000 feet from the
tree and she was a purple red color and

182
00:09:25,532 --> 00:09:27,242
better dressed than the others around her.

183
00:09:27,742 --> 00:09:30,412
She had two hats along sleeve undershirt.

184
00:09:30,862 --> 00:09:31,522
A sweater.

185
00:09:31,942 --> 00:09:32,752
Applied shirt.

186
00:09:33,112 --> 00:09:35,032
And a torn sweater on top.

187
00:09:35,532 --> 00:09:36,762
She had on no shoes.

188
00:09:37,262 --> 00:09:40,022
Rustin was about 1500 feet from the tree.

189
00:09:40,052 --> 00:09:42,122
And with space down,
heading towards the tent.

190
00:09:42,542 --> 00:09:44,372
He was wearing a long sleeve undershirt.

191
00:09:44,732 --> 00:09:45,902
I shared on top of that.

192
00:09:46,352 --> 00:09:47,042
A sweater.

193
00:09:47,522 --> 00:09:48,752
Two pairs of pants.

194
00:09:49,022 --> 00:09:52,262
Four pairs of socks and
one boot on his right foot.

195
00:09:52,762 --> 00:09:57,412
His washed up working at 8 45 and
he had a small crack in his skull.

196
00:09:57,912 --> 00:09:59,742
But it wasn't determined to be fatal.

197
00:10:00,242 --> 00:10:05,132
However, the bilateral injuries on his
thighs, hands in head suggested that he

198
00:10:05,132 --> 00:10:09,782
could have been repeatedly falling on his
head at a weird angle that didn't cause

199
00:10:09,782 --> 00:10:11,552
damage to the back of his skull somehow.

200
00:10:12,052 --> 00:10:14,962
They weren't quite sure what caused
that kind of pattern to his body.

201
00:10:15,462 --> 00:10:19,332
It wasn't self-inflicted and the way the
ice and snow were around him suggested

202
00:10:19,332 --> 00:10:21,822
he was still warm when he lost fell.

203
00:10:22,322 --> 00:10:25,682
The rest of the group would not be
discovered for more than two months.

204
00:10:26,182 --> 00:10:31,252
They were finally found on May 4th, under
13 feet of snow in a ravine, less than 300

205
00:10:31,252 --> 00:10:35,127
feet further into the woods, past the pine
tree, where the first group was found.

206
00:10:35,627 --> 00:10:37,787
Three of the four were better
dressed than the others.

207
00:10:38,027 --> 00:10:41,297
And there were signs that some of the
clothing on those who had died first

208
00:10:41,297 --> 00:10:43,547
had been removed and used by the others.

209
00:10:44,047 --> 00:10:47,737
The four founded may shifted the
narrative of the entire incident.

210
00:10:48,237 --> 00:10:50,787
Originally, it was like
hypothermia got to them.

211
00:10:50,817 --> 00:10:53,727
And while there was some odd
findings in the first group,

212
00:10:53,847 --> 00:10:55,047
it could be explained why.

213
00:10:55,547 --> 00:10:57,107
But not what this next group, right?

214
00:10:57,607 --> 00:11:00,817
So the snow melting in may caused
a man walking the trail with

215
00:11:00,817 --> 00:11:04,297
his dog to notice branches laid
down in a trail like fashion.

216
00:11:04,797 --> 00:11:05,607
He followed it.

217
00:11:05,607 --> 00:11:08,997
And then less than 300 feet from
where the others were found.

218
00:11:09,357 --> 00:11:13,947
He discovered a pile of branches over
a Snowden with black pants and half

219
00:11:13,947 --> 00:11:15,717
of a sweater belonging to with Myla.

220
00:11:16,217 --> 00:11:19,697
Now when Ludmilla was found,
she was wearing two sweaters.

221
00:11:20,027 --> 00:11:21,287
Two long sleeve shirts.

222
00:11:21,587 --> 00:11:24,497
Uh, radioactive brown sweater
that belonged to Georgie.

223
00:11:24,502 --> 00:11:26,752
And contained traces of
radioactive material.

224
00:11:27,252 --> 00:11:31,482
She was lying on a natural ledge and there
was water flowing over her open mouth.

225
00:11:31,982 --> 00:11:35,432
Originally, and to this day, people say
her tongue was ripped from her mouth.

226
00:11:35,822 --> 00:11:39,002
And honestly the autopsy report
does not explain why her tongue

227
00:11:39,002 --> 00:11:43,592
wasn't there, or if it was because
of the river or animals, et cetera.

228
00:11:44,092 --> 00:11:47,692
But in her stomach was a dark brown
matter, said to be coagulated blood.

229
00:11:48,082 --> 00:11:51,862
Which some say indicate her heart was
beating when her tongue was removed.

230
00:11:52,362 --> 00:11:53,682
Her cause of death was hemorrhaging.

231
00:11:54,052 --> 00:11:55,522
to the right atrium of her heart.

232
00:11:55,852 --> 00:11:58,822
Multiple fractured ribs
and internal bleeding.

233
00:11:59,322 --> 00:11:59,712
Now.

234
00:12:00,212 --> 00:12:03,902
Simion and lewd, Mila had similar
direction and pattern of injuries,

235
00:12:04,082 --> 00:12:06,902
even though they were completely
different builds and Heights.

236
00:12:07,262 --> 00:12:10,622
Ludmilla had bilateral injuries
to her ribs that were symmetrical

237
00:12:10,772 --> 00:12:14,822
while Samian had that same pattern,
only on the right side of his ribs.

238
00:12:15,322 --> 00:12:18,352
They both had hemorrhaging and
the cardiac muscle and pleural

239
00:12:18,352 --> 00:12:22,342
cavity, which was caused by a
large force while they were alive.

240
00:12:22,842 --> 00:12:26,202
But none of the tissue on
their chest was damaged.

241
00:12:26,702 --> 00:12:30,842
It said that they survived at least
20 minutes after the injuries, which

242
00:12:30,872 --> 00:12:34,982
are commonly found when you've been
near a detonated bomb explosion or

243
00:12:34,982 --> 00:12:37,112
some kind of high pressure impact.

244
00:12:37,612 --> 00:12:39,562
Semyon was wearing two hats.

245
00:12:39,892 --> 00:12:40,702
Two shirts.

246
00:12:41,152 --> 00:12:41,842
A scarf.

247
00:12:42,202 --> 00:12:42,832
A sweater.

248
00:12:43,282 --> 00:12:43,792
A coat.

249
00:12:44,292 --> 00:12:48,612
Sox and leather because he didn't
die from the cold and the den.

250
00:12:49,002 --> 00:12:53,142
And he was also wearing a camera and
holding a pen and notepad in his hands.

251
00:12:53,642 --> 00:12:57,872
When that was found Only one high
ranking official ever saw that notepad.

252
00:12:58,292 --> 00:13:00,002
And he said there was nothing on it.

253
00:13:00,502 --> 00:13:02,662
But it was never entered into evidence.

254
00:13:03,162 --> 00:13:08,172
That last camera was Samian was also a
surprise because URI said that he knew

255
00:13:08,172 --> 00:13:12,522
there were four cameras in the group, but
he didn't realize that Samian had a fifth.

256
00:13:13,022 --> 00:13:18,032
Now Alexander's body was well-insulated
because he was wearing two shirts.

257
00:13:18,392 --> 00:13:22,832
To sweaters and unbuttoned and
unzipped ski jacket and trousers,

258
00:13:23,332 --> 00:13:26,332
his sweater and trousers were
found to be radioactive as well.

259
00:13:26,832 --> 00:13:30,552
His autopsy report said he had
a broken nose, a deformed neck

260
00:13:30,582 --> 00:13:32,652
with open wounds behind his ear.

261
00:13:32,952 --> 00:13:37,662
And the autopsy did not expand on why the
injuries were there or what caused them.

262
00:13:38,162 --> 00:13:40,292
And it did not mention his cause of death.

263
00:13:40,792 --> 00:13:41,842
Now onto Nikolai.

264
00:13:42,342 --> 00:13:44,262
His body was well-protected right.

265
00:13:44,622 --> 00:13:48,432
He and Simion were thought to already
be outside when whatever caused this

266
00:13:48,462 --> 00:13:52,242
group to leave their tent happened due
to how many layers they both had on.

267
00:13:52,742 --> 00:13:57,362
He was wearing a wool hat,
gloves, socks, and sweater.

268
00:13:57,572 --> 00:13:58,742
So all of that was wool.

269
00:13:59,242 --> 00:14:02,872
He also had on two shirts,
a fur jacket and boots.

270
00:14:03,372 --> 00:14:07,662
He had categoric spots on his upper
body and extremities and a deep multi

271
00:14:07,662 --> 00:14:09,282
splintered fracture in his skull.

272
00:14:09,782 --> 00:14:13,502
And an accidental fall was ruled
out for such a massive head injury.

273
00:14:14,002 --> 00:14:17,002
They said it more closely followed
him being thrown in the air in

274
00:14:17,002 --> 00:14:18,592
his head, impacting the rocks.

275
00:14:18,832 --> 00:14:21,772
Because there was no tissue damage
that would resemble someone hitting

276
00:14:21,772 --> 00:14:22,942
him in the head with a rock.

277
00:14:23,492 --> 00:14:26,852
So the group found at the bottom
of the Creek had all these massive

278
00:14:26,852 --> 00:14:28,532
fatal internal injuries, right.

279
00:14:28,772 --> 00:14:33,002
That left no outside tissue damage
related to those injuries somehow.

280
00:14:33,502 --> 00:14:38,182
They did however, have soft tissue damage
to their head and face after they died.

281
00:14:38,662 --> 00:14:41,572
For example, Lewd Mila
was missing her tongue.

282
00:14:41,992 --> 00:14:46,222
I part of the lips and she
also was missing facial tissue

283
00:14:46,252 --> 00:14:47,632
and a fragment of her skull.

284
00:14:48,132 --> 00:14:52,302
Semyon was missing his eyeballs and
Alexander was missing his eyebrows.

285
00:14:52,802 --> 00:14:56,102
It was also noted that there
were no signs of sexual activity.

286
00:14:56,432 --> 00:14:57,992
Found on the two women in the group.

287
00:14:58,382 --> 00:15:01,742
And I mentioned that because some
people believe that it was a motive and

288
00:15:01,742 --> 00:15:02,972
everything that happened that night.

289
00:15:03,472 --> 00:15:06,082
But according to the medical
examiner, it was not.

290
00:15:06,582 --> 00:15:07,932
Now let's talk about the tent.

291
00:15:08,432 --> 00:15:09,662
The side of the tent was cut.

292
00:15:09,662 --> 00:15:10,052
Right.

293
00:15:10,262 --> 00:15:12,182
But it was cut from the inside.

294
00:15:12,512 --> 00:15:14,852
They didn't leave from the
entrance for some reason.

295
00:15:15,352 --> 00:15:19,552
And they left all nine backpacks
by the tent filled with sweaters,

296
00:15:19,612 --> 00:15:24,202
coats, boots, blankets, and just
overall thick winter clothing.

297
00:15:24,382 --> 00:15:25,912
They could have used to keep warm.

298
00:15:26,412 --> 00:15:28,842
It also had their camera's stove.

299
00:15:29,112 --> 00:15:30,342
Food and more.

300
00:15:30,842 --> 00:15:33,692
They had two pairs of skis
standing upright in the snow.

301
00:15:34,082 --> 00:15:34,802
By the tent.

302
00:15:35,302 --> 00:15:36,082
An ice pick.

303
00:15:36,502 --> 00:15:40,462
eCourse jacket and a working
flashlight was there too sitting

304
00:15:40,462 --> 00:15:42,412
on top of several feet of snow.

305
00:15:42,962 --> 00:15:46,712
There was snow powered on the side of
the tent, similar to a snow had been

306
00:15:46,712 --> 00:15:49,712
blown onto it, but not like an avalanche.

307
00:15:50,212 --> 00:15:53,062
There were eight to nine sets
of footprints, all showing

308
00:15:53,092 --> 00:15:54,442
various that were choices.

309
00:15:54,472 --> 00:15:58,562
Like I mentioned earlier, and
those footprints were organized.

310
00:15:58,812 --> 00:16:00,672
No signs of running or panicking.

311
00:16:01,172 --> 00:16:04,682
And it showed some people veering
off before joining the group again.

312
00:16:05,182 --> 00:16:09,442
They found other footprints, but due to
how organized the original tent scene was

313
00:16:09,742 --> 00:16:13,672
rescuers didn't think anyone was hurt or
dead when they originally found the tent.

314
00:16:14,062 --> 00:16:17,512
So no one made note of what
prints were the rescuers or not.

315
00:16:18,012 --> 00:16:20,202
So you have suspicious injuries.

316
00:16:20,202 --> 00:16:21,282
And causes of death.

317
00:16:21,532 --> 00:16:23,272
Are relatively tame tent scene.

318
00:16:23,722 --> 00:16:27,052
And behavior that shows everyone
was thinking pretty rationally.

319
00:16:27,552 --> 00:16:31,482
I mean the second group that was
found, built a Snowden and had

320
00:16:31,482 --> 00:16:34,722
taken clothes from the others to
be able to withstand the cold.

321
00:16:35,222 --> 00:16:39,332
Obviously, there are so many questions
and journalists reporting on the

322
00:16:39,332 --> 00:16:43,372
available parts of the investigation
files claim This was when it all stated.

323
00:16:43,872 --> 00:16:48,672
So first six of the group members died of
hypothermia and three of fatal injuries.

324
00:16:49,172 --> 00:16:52,532
There were no indications of other
people in nearby on Cola, apart

325
00:16:52,532 --> 00:16:55,952
from the nine travelers and the tent
had been ripped open from within.

326
00:16:56,452 --> 00:17:00,382
The victims had died six to eight
hours after their last meal.

327
00:17:00,882 --> 00:17:03,792
And traces from the camp show
that all group members left the

328
00:17:03,792 --> 00:17:06,252
site of their own accord on foot.

329
00:17:06,752 --> 00:17:10,232
Some levels of radiation were
found on one victim's clothing.

330
00:17:10,732 --> 00:17:14,602
And there was no foul play as far
as an outside party, attacking them.

331
00:17:15,102 --> 00:17:19,212
Originally people were blaming the
indigenous Mansi people, but the

332
00:17:19,212 --> 00:17:23,021
medical examiner said that The fatal
injuries of that second group couldn't

333
00:17:23,021 --> 00:17:27,162
have been caused by humans because
the force of the blows was too strong

334
00:17:27,252 --> 00:17:29,442
and no soft tissue had been damaged.

335
00:17:29,942 --> 00:17:34,172
Then released documents contained
no information about the condition

336
00:17:34,172 --> 00:17:36,092
of the skiers internal organs.

337
00:17:36,592 --> 00:17:37,372
And lastly.

338
00:17:37,872 --> 00:17:39,042
There were no survivors.

339
00:17:39,542 --> 00:17:42,992
At the time, the official conclusion
was that they died because of a

340
00:17:42,992 --> 00:17:47,552
natural force and they shut the
investigation in may of 1959.

341
00:17:47,972 --> 00:17:49,622
And classified the files.

342
00:17:50,122 --> 00:17:54,922
So obviously following this suspicious
event where nothing quite adds up at face

343
00:17:54,922 --> 00:18:00,532
value and the officials open, shut, and
threw away the key on this accident and

344
00:18:00,532 --> 00:18:02,782
basically told everyone to leave it alone.

345
00:18:03,282 --> 00:18:04,812
People couldn't leave it alone.

346
00:18:05,312 --> 00:18:09,242
And after it happened another group
of hikers, about 30 miles south of the

347
00:18:09,242 --> 00:18:13,562
incident reported that they saw strange
orange spheres in the sky to the north.

348
00:18:13,592 --> 00:18:15,152
On the night, the group met their fate.

349
00:18:15,652 --> 00:18:19,282
Similar spheres were observed
in idle and surrounding areas

350
00:18:19,312 --> 00:18:21,642
regularly from February to March.

351
00:18:22,002 --> 00:18:22,752
Uh, 59.

352
00:18:23,252 --> 00:18:27,882
The sightings were seen by several
independent witnesses, including people in

353
00:18:27,882 --> 00:18:30,652
the military and the meteorology service.

354
00:18:31,152 --> 00:18:34,332
The sightings were not noted
in the 59 investigation.

355
00:18:34,832 --> 00:18:37,202
And the witnesses came
forward years later.

356
00:18:37,702 --> 00:18:41,602
One of them was a former police officer
who led the investigation in 59.

357
00:18:41,842 --> 00:18:46,012
And in 1990, he published an
article with his admission that the

358
00:18:46,012 --> 00:18:49,462
investigation team had no rational
explanation for what happened.

359
00:18:49,962 --> 00:18:54,462
He said that after the team reported
that they had seen these flying spheres.

360
00:18:54,732 --> 00:18:58,002
He received direct orders
from high-ranking officials

361
00:18:58,092 --> 00:18:59,622
to dismiss the claims.

362
00:19:00,122 --> 00:19:04,352
And 97, it was revealed that pictures
from George's camera were kept in the

363
00:19:04,352 --> 00:19:06,812
private archive of that same investigator.

364
00:19:07,312 --> 00:19:10,102
It was later donated to the foundation.

365
00:19:10,322 --> 00:19:12,332
Once it was founded in 1999.

366
00:19:12,832 --> 00:19:15,682
And the diaries of the
group were released in 2009.

367
00:19:16,102 --> 00:19:19,132
And if you're watching the video
version of this episode, That's

368
00:19:19,132 --> 00:19:20,362
where these pictures are coming from.

369
00:19:20,862 --> 00:19:24,332
So the foundation said its mission
is to continue investigating the

370
00:19:24,332 --> 00:19:28,982
case and to maintain the museum to
preserve the memory of the dead hikers.

371
00:19:29,482 --> 00:19:33,922
In July, 2016, a Memorial plaque
was inaugurated dedicated to your

372
00:19:33,922 --> 00:19:37,882
UDAN, who was considered the sole
survivor of the expedition groups.

373
00:19:37,882 --> 00:19:40,402
Since he was the one who had to turn back.

374
00:19:40,902 --> 00:19:44,052
He later died in 2013 at the age of 75.

375
00:19:44,552 --> 00:19:44,882
Now.

376
00:19:45,332 --> 00:19:46,502
Let's break this down.

377
00:19:47,002 --> 00:19:47,362
Okay.

378
00:19:47,362 --> 00:19:50,632
So the original official theory
that they had about all of this.

379
00:19:51,112 --> 00:19:51,652
Was that

380
00:19:51,652 --> 00:19:55,012
The group woke up in a panic and
cut their way out of the tent either

381
00:19:55,012 --> 00:19:58,522
because of an avalanche covering the
entrance to the tent, or because they

382
00:19:58,522 --> 00:20:00,262
were scared and avalanche was coming.

383
00:20:00,762 --> 00:20:03,972
They figured it was better to repair
the slit in the tent than being

384
00:20:03,972 --> 00:20:05,802
buried alive under tons of snow.

385
00:20:06,302 --> 00:20:09,802
They were poorly clothed because they
had been sleeping and ran to the safety

386
00:20:09,802 --> 00:20:14,032
of the nearby woods where trees would
help slow the oncoming avalanche.

387
00:20:14,532 --> 00:20:17,502
In the dark, they got separated
into two or three groups.

388
00:20:18,002 --> 00:20:19,202
One group made a fire.

389
00:20:19,207 --> 00:20:20,707
Which caused the burnt hands.

390
00:20:21,207 --> 00:20:24,087
And the others tried to return to
the tent to recover their clothing

391
00:20:24,087 --> 00:20:25,437
since the danger had passed.

392
00:20:25,827 --> 00:20:29,307
But since it was too cold, they all
froze to death before they could

393
00:20:29,307 --> 00:20:30,717
locate their tent in the dark.

394
00:20:31,217 --> 00:20:34,277
And at some point, some of the
clothes may have been recovered or

395
00:20:34,277 --> 00:20:38,117
swapped from the dead, but it was
believed that the group of four whose

396
00:20:38,147 --> 00:20:40,217
bodies were most severely damaged.

397
00:20:40,457 --> 00:20:43,577
We're caught in an avalanche and
buried under 13 feet of snow.

398
00:20:43,582 --> 00:20:47,182
Which they say is more than enough
to account for the compelling,

399
00:20:47,182 --> 00:20:50,362
natural forest that the medical
examiner hinted at before.

400
00:20:50,862 --> 00:20:55,037
Lewd Millis tongue was said to have
likely been removed by scavengers and

401
00:20:55,042 --> 00:20:57,282
just predators out in the wilderness.

402
00:20:57,782 --> 00:21:01,052
people were leaning towards aliens or
some kind of extra terrestrial event.

403
00:21:01,082 --> 00:21:01,502
Right.

404
00:21:01,952 --> 00:21:06,122
But there was also a large group that
felt like it was a Soviet union, military

405
00:21:06,122 --> 00:21:09,902
exercise gone wrong, or some kind of
pressure weapon that caused the injuries.

406
00:21:10,232 --> 00:21:13,772
Because they were experimenting
with those things at the time.

407
00:21:14,272 --> 00:21:17,452
It didn't help with how quickly they
closed in classified the investigation.

408
00:21:17,452 --> 00:21:17,752
Right?

409
00:21:18,022 --> 00:21:21,472
I mean, governments usually do
that when something is wrong.

410
00:21:21,972 --> 00:21:26,222
Or they've messed up or some other
version of that scenario and they don't

411
00:21:26,222 --> 00:21:27,692
want the public to know the truth.

412
00:21:28,192 --> 00:21:29,662
So with all the speculation.

413
00:21:29,932 --> 00:21:34,312
Happening over decades and decades
and 2019 Russian authorities reopened

414
00:21:34,312 --> 00:21:37,882
the investigation into the incident,
but they said that they were only

415
00:21:37,882 --> 00:21:39,562
going to entertain three theories.

416
00:21:40,062 --> 00:21:41,022
And avalanche.

417
00:21:41,522 --> 00:21:43,712
Uh, slab avalanche or a hurricane.

418
00:21:44,212 --> 00:21:49,072
So the new theory released in 2020
was that in avalanche was the official

419
00:21:49,072 --> 00:21:52,032
cause of death for the group in 1959.

420
00:21:52,532 --> 00:21:57,157
This was backed up by independent computer
simulations that pointed to the group's

421
00:21:57,157 --> 00:21:59,047
actions, no longer being irrational.

422
00:21:59,547 --> 00:22:02,107
Because originally people
thought that people were

423
00:22:02,107 --> 00:22:04,612
enclosed because of overheating.

424
00:22:04,642 --> 00:22:06,987
when you have hypothermia,
Or you're experiencing it.

425
00:22:07,047 --> 00:22:08,787
You start to feel too hot.

426
00:22:08,787 --> 00:22:11,667
So people that are going through
that event will usually just

427
00:22:11,667 --> 00:22:13,527
start to take off their clothes.

428
00:22:13,777 --> 00:22:17,407
To cool off, which ends up obviously
speeding up their death because now they

429
00:22:17,407 --> 00:22:19,117
have no clothing to help keep them warm.

430
00:22:19,507 --> 00:22:22,467
But that was the original
theory And obviously.

431
00:22:22,827 --> 00:22:25,292
I've explained that that's
not why they were missing

432
00:22:25,292 --> 00:22:26,312
clothes it's because the other.

433
00:22:26,562 --> 00:22:27,852
Took them for their own warmth.

434
00:22:28,362 --> 00:22:31,787
So the snow slab that they believed
caused the deaths of everyone.

435
00:22:32,117 --> 00:22:35,452
Would have made loud cracks and
rumbles as it came towards the tent,

436
00:22:35,457 --> 00:22:37,442
making an avalanche seem imminent.

437
00:22:37,942 --> 00:22:40,402
So they say the group
did everything textbook.

438
00:22:40,612 --> 00:22:44,692
They had an emergency evacuation to ground
that would be safe from an avalanche.

439
00:22:45,082 --> 00:22:48,562
They took shelter in the woods,
started a fire and dug a snow cave.

440
00:22:49,062 --> 00:22:51,762
If there were less experienced,
they may have stayed near the

441
00:22:51,762 --> 00:22:53,892
tent, dug it out and survived.

442
00:22:54,282 --> 00:22:58,152
But since avalanches are the biggest
risks in mountains in the winter.

443
00:22:58,512 --> 00:23:01,182
The more experience you
have, the more you fear them.

444
00:23:01,682 --> 00:23:05,347
So there were saying that the
skiers expertise is what doomed

445
00:23:05,347 --> 00:23:06,577
them and led to their deaths.

446
00:23:06,827 --> 00:23:07,217
Now.

447
00:23:07,467 --> 00:23:11,097
There's a bunch of evidence contradicting
the avalanche theory altogether.

448
00:23:11,597 --> 00:23:14,747
One of those is that the location
of the incident didn't have any

449
00:23:14,747 --> 00:23:18,737
obvious signs of an avalanche taking
place in avalanche would have left

450
00:23:18,737 --> 00:23:21,287
patterns and debris all over the area.

451
00:23:21,557 --> 00:23:25,127
And the bodies found within a month
of that avalanche recovered with

452
00:23:25,157 --> 00:23:27,077
a very, very thin layer of snow.

453
00:23:27,577 --> 00:23:30,907
If there'd been an avalanche
strong enough to sweep away that

454
00:23:30,907 --> 00:23:32,527
second group that was farther away

455
00:23:32,557 --> 00:23:33,817
And caused all those injuries.

456
00:23:34,067 --> 00:23:38,237
Then The first group's body would have had
a severe of injuries as the second group.

457
00:23:38,597 --> 00:23:40,997
And the tree line would have
been more severely damaged.

458
00:23:41,497 --> 00:23:45,517
There have also been over 100 expeditions
to that area since the incident.

459
00:23:45,847 --> 00:23:49,717
And none of them have ever reported
conditions that could cause an avalanche.

460
00:23:50,217 --> 00:23:50,577
Now.

461
00:23:50,937 --> 00:23:54,777
And analysis of the terrain and the
slope showed that even if there was a

462
00:23:54,777 --> 00:23:59,487
very specific avalanche in that area,
The path would have gone past the tent.

463
00:23:59,987 --> 00:24:04,067
And since the tent collapsed from the
side and not in a horizontal direction.

464
00:24:04,427 --> 00:24:07,067
It's not believed that's
what truly caused it.

465
00:24:07,567 --> 00:24:09,787
There's also the fact that
yacht live was an experienced

466
00:24:09,787 --> 00:24:12,647
skier and Simion was much older.

467
00:24:13,047 --> 00:24:17,457
with his military background and his
studying for a master's certificate in ski

468
00:24:17,457 --> 00:24:22,052
instruction and mountain hiking, neither
of these two were likely to camp somewhere

469
00:24:22,142 --> 00:24:24,002
in the path of a potential avalanche.

470
00:24:24,502 --> 00:24:27,652
The footprint patterns leading
away from the tent, we're calm and

471
00:24:27,682 --> 00:24:30,232
inconsistent with a single person.

472
00:24:30,262 --> 00:24:35,422
Let alone a group of people running in
panic from either real or imagined danger.

473
00:24:35,922 --> 00:24:39,222
All of the footprints leading away
from the tent were consistent with

474
00:24:39,252 --> 00:24:41,112
people walking at a normal pace.

475
00:24:41,612 --> 00:24:46,022
So there are other theories that
scientists have come up with that include.

476
00:24:46,272 --> 00:24:49,812
Blaming extremely bad weather
and lack of experience on the

477
00:24:49,812 --> 00:24:51,732
group leader in such conditions.

478
00:24:52,032 --> 00:24:55,902
Which led to the selection of a dangerous
campsite blaming the group for splitting

479
00:24:55,932 --> 00:24:59,382
up rather than building a temporary
camp down in the forest to try and

480
00:24:59,382 --> 00:25:03,902
survive through the night and negligence
of the 59 investigators for not being

481
00:25:03,902 --> 00:25:07,562
thorough, leading to their report,
creating more questions than answers

482
00:25:07,612 --> 00:25:09,952
And inspiring numerous
conspiracy theories.

483
00:25:10,452 --> 00:25:14,382
Scientists were leaning towards
slabs or katabatic winds, making it

484
00:25:14,382 --> 00:25:15,972
impossible to remain in the tent.

485
00:25:16,002 --> 00:25:19,182
Because even though they're
rare, they're extremely violent.

486
00:25:19,682 --> 00:25:20,702
So with the wind theory.

487
00:25:21,152 --> 00:25:23,102
The hikers would have
covered the tent with snow.

488
00:25:23,352 --> 00:25:25,002
And sought shelter behind the tree line.

489
00:25:25,152 --> 00:25:27,342
Hence part of the tent
being covered in snow.

490
00:25:27,842 --> 00:25:31,562
On top of the tent, there was the
flashlight left turned on so that they

491
00:25:31,562 --> 00:25:32,762
could make their way back to the tent.

492
00:25:32,762 --> 00:25:33,632
Once the wind stopped.

493
00:25:33,882 --> 00:25:36,222
This theory says that the
group made two shelters.

494
00:25:36,312 --> 00:25:40,722
One of which collapsed leaving the four
hikers buried with the severe injuries.

495
00:25:41,222 --> 00:25:42,842
I kind of like that theory.

496
00:25:43,172 --> 00:25:45,182
But it's not my top one.

497
00:25:45,212 --> 00:25:47,762
There's a lot with it that
I just don't agree with.

498
00:25:48,262 --> 00:25:51,202
There are other theories about the
testing of radiological weapons,

499
00:25:51,202 --> 00:25:55,042
which is based on the discovery of
radioactivity on some of the clothing

500
00:25:55,072 --> 00:25:59,302
and the bodies, having orange skin and
gray hair as reported by relatives.

501
00:25:59,802 --> 00:26:03,342
I don't completely buy that theory
because the radioactivity would

502
00:26:03,342 --> 00:26:04,962
have been on multiple people.

503
00:26:05,462 --> 00:26:07,472
And probably everyone's clothing.

504
00:26:07,972 --> 00:26:11,662
Honestly, I lean towards something
extra terrestrial because of the orbs.

505
00:26:12,082 --> 00:26:15,022
Or the military doing experiments
and just not realizing people

506
00:26:15,022 --> 00:26:15,952
were up there that night.

507
00:26:16,402 --> 00:26:18,892
Those are personally my top two theories.

508
00:26:19,392 --> 00:26:19,872
So.

509
00:26:20,372 --> 00:26:21,392
Here is my theory.

510
00:26:21,892 --> 00:26:25,822
I think something caused them to leave
the tent quickly, but not in a panic.

511
00:26:26,272 --> 00:26:30,592
Maybe the two skiers that were the most
well dressed were outside and they saw

512
00:26:30,592 --> 00:26:35,032
the orbs or strange lights or heard the
experiments and what to check it out.

513
00:26:35,532 --> 00:26:37,392
They came back and told the others.

514
00:26:37,892 --> 00:26:39,692
I do not believe they
thought it was an avalanche.

515
00:26:39,932 --> 00:26:42,182
Because If they would have, they
would have grabbed the skis and

516
00:26:42,182 --> 00:26:44,372
they wouldn't have been left,
sitting upright in the snow.

517
00:26:44,872 --> 00:26:47,782
They didn't go towards the
storage at all, but towards the

518
00:26:47,782 --> 00:26:49,792
trees and it wasn't in a panic.

519
00:26:50,292 --> 00:26:54,762
I think they went to the trees and started
a fire to wait out whatever was going on.

520
00:26:55,262 --> 00:26:57,422
Some of the branches
were used for the fire.

521
00:26:57,692 --> 00:27:01,202
And I think some are damaged from
someone climbing up to keep watch

522
00:27:01,202 --> 00:27:03,722
for whatever caused them to leave
their tent in the first place.

523
00:27:04,222 --> 00:27:06,082
They were all together at the fire.

524
00:27:06,442 --> 00:27:09,022
And then the danger costs, some
of them to leave the campfire

525
00:27:09,052 --> 00:27:10,372
and go deeper into the woods.

526
00:27:10,642 --> 00:27:12,442
While you're in Georgia climbed the tree.

527
00:27:12,942 --> 00:27:16,692
Or perhaps they volunteered to keep
watch while the others went to make a

528
00:27:16,692 --> 00:27:18,702
permanent shelter with that Snowden.

529
00:27:19,202 --> 00:27:23,012
Either Georgie and your became
exhausted and eventually fell and died.

530
00:27:23,402 --> 00:27:27,122
Or maybe they were terrified of what
was going on and trying to keep quiet.

531
00:27:27,272 --> 00:27:28,442
Hence the handwriting.

532
00:27:28,942 --> 00:27:31,342
Or maybe they were there so
long that it was the only way

533
00:27:31,342 --> 00:27:32,482
to keep their hands awake.

534
00:27:32,982 --> 00:27:33,552
Either way.

535
00:27:33,912 --> 00:27:35,382
Something caused them to fall.

536
00:27:35,882 --> 00:27:36,602
And eventually.

537
00:27:37,102 --> 00:27:41,302
Igor Zenaida and rest him returned
to check on them and found them dead.

538
00:27:41,802 --> 00:27:44,862
They took some of their clothing and
we're going to get supplies from the tent.

539
00:27:45,222 --> 00:27:48,372
When the danger hit them
again, leading to their deaths.

540
00:27:48,872 --> 00:27:50,972
So there you have the
first group that was found.

541
00:27:51,472 --> 00:27:53,692
The second group decided to
stay in the den where the

542
00:27:53,692 --> 00:27:55,102
clothing was originally found.

543
00:27:55,402 --> 00:27:59,302
When Igor and the others didn't return,
they eventually went to check on

544
00:27:59,302 --> 00:28:00,652
them when they needed more clothing.

545
00:28:01,102 --> 00:28:05,062
And seeing their friends dead, they took
what they could and went back to the dead.

546
00:28:05,562 --> 00:28:09,342
I think Sammy on a wrote what was going
on and took pictures on his camera.

547
00:28:09,762 --> 00:28:14,022
Before the danger, orbs, military
experiments, or whatever.

548
00:28:14,412 --> 00:28:15,312
Impacted them.

549
00:28:15,582 --> 00:28:17,082
And killed the remaining skiers.

550
00:28:17,582 --> 00:28:18,932
But what do you guys think happened?

551
00:28:19,432 --> 00:28:24,052
I know everyone is always so
opinionated on this topic, leave your

552
00:28:24,052 --> 00:28:27,562
theories for me to read and don't
forget to follow or subscribe because

553
00:28:27,562 --> 00:28:29,512
the story and an upcoming episode.

554
00:28:29,762 --> 00:28:31,862
Is even more mysterious than this.

555
00:28:32,362 --> 00:28:33,112
Stay safe.

556
00:28:33,532 --> 00:28:34,462
And I'll see you next time.

557
00:28:34,962 --> 00:28:35,532
Bye guys.
