00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:04,440
Hello, my name is John Socia,
the father of Jeremy Socia, and

2
00:00:04,440 --> 00:00:08,200
I want to welcome you to the
next exciting episode of The

3
00:00:08,200 --> 00:00:52,040
Infinite Rabbit Hole.
On February 2nd of 1959, on the

4
00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:55,960
eastern side of the mountain of
Colossi Cow, a brutal and

5
00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:58,680
mysterious event would take
place that would boggle the

6
00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:03,200
minds of all that learn of its
details for what may be forever.

7
00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:08,040
Colossi Cow is translated from
the local native Monzi to mean

8
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:12,480
lack of game, but also has a
more sinister nickname given to

9
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:17,200
it by the Monzi Halachel or Dead
Mountain.

10
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:21,760
This barren and dangerous place
is located in the northern Ural

11
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:25,760
region of Russia near the Komi
Republic, and since this

12
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:29,640
infamous event took place, the
area has been much more commonly

13
00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:35,800
referred to simply as Diyalov
Pass. 23 year old Igor Diatlov

14
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:38,640
and nine others who were
graduate students of the Euro

15
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:42,680
Polytechnic Institute, now known
as the Ural State Technical

16
00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:46,480
University, began their
adventure from the then Soviet

17
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:52,200
city, a Sfirlosk or modern day
Yakatarinburg, to begin their

18
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:57,280
expedition to Uttorton Mountain.
The cast were all experienced

19
00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:01,880
hikers and skiers and the Class
3 route that they were about to

20
00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:05,840
embark on should have held no
problem for the group at all in

21
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:08,720
typical weather.
But this was the dead of winter,

22
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:12,680
and 10 days into their trip on
the eastern slope of Colossi

23
00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:17,920
Cow, the group of nine students
would set up the last camp of

24
00:02:17,920 --> 00:02:21,600
their lives as a mysterious
event took place that sent them

25
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:25,520
fleeing from their tent into the
dark and frozen Ural winter

26
00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:28,720
night.
One of the original 10 members

27
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:32,560
by the name of Yuri Yudin had
turned back a few days into the

28
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:35,840
expedition, a decision that
would make him the only

29
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:39,480
surviving member of the group.
Three weeks later, a search and

30
00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:44,200
rescue team dispatched Colossi
Cow discovered their tent half

31
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:48,040
covered by three weeks of snow
and ice, but initially found no

32
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:51,200
signs of the hikers.
A mile away in separate

33
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:55,000
locations, all of the hikers
were found frozen to death, half

34
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:57,240
dressed and most of them missing
their boots.

35
00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:00,800
A few were found face down, some
were found in the fetal

36
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:03,760
position, and the rest spent
their last moments holding on to

37
00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:06,640
another.
After the bodies were removed

38
00:03:06,640 --> 00:03:09,640
from the mountain, forensics
teams would discover that only

39
00:03:09,640 --> 00:03:12,960
six were ultimately killed by
hypothermia, while the other

40
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:16,080
three died from brutal trauma,
including head injuries.

41
00:03:16,640 --> 00:03:20,000
One woman was missing her
tongue, and many of the clothing

42
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:23,720
that they were wearing held
abnormal amounts of radiation

43
00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:26,000
after being measured with a
Geiger counter.

44
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:30,080
Ultimately, the lead
investigator, Lev Ivanov, would

45
00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:34,080
close the case and pen a final
report stating that the hikers

46
00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:38,000
had perished of quote an unknown
compelling force.

47
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:41,800
This mysterious closure alone is
enough to send most people who

48
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:46,400
read it down a rabbit hole.
But as we will soon learn, there

49
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:48,800
is still much more to unravel
about this event.

50
00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:53,600
After the death of the 9 hikers,
authorities closed all Clot

51
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:58,640
Sikal and its surrounding area
for three years and speculation

52
00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:01,120
of what really happened began to
run wild.

53
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:05,760
Welcome to D Outlook Pass
everybody, and welcome back to

54
00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:08,840
Infinite Rabbit Hole.
I was going to say what?

55
00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:10,720
No intros, just go right into
it.

56
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:13,640
Crazy.
Yeah, I started not putting that

57
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:16,440
at the end of the intros.
It's a.

58
00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:19,480
It's a thing I'm trying.
I like when you do that because

59
00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:22,880
you've done this before where
you come in with the the

60
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:29,120
cinematic intro and then and
then bam, credits, right And

61
00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:30,960
then back into it.
I like that.

62
00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:34,640
Yeah, Bam.
Yeah, it's Bam.

63
00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:39,200
It's all festive and stuff,
pageantry if you will.

64
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:42,720
There you go, that's the word.
Welcome back to the Infinite

65
00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:45,280
Rabbit Hole.
I'm your host Jeremy, and today

66
00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:49,160
we will be diving into the
subject of Diotlo Pass.

67
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:53,800
It's a it's a doozy.
It's it's crazy.

68
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:56,680
A lot of a lot of people claim
that they know what happened.

69
00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:58,520
A lot of people claim that they
don't know what happened.

70
00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:02,000
Some people claim that it was a
Bigfoot or a Yeti like creature.

71
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:05,520
Some people believe of aliens.
Some people think that they just

72
00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:06,920
went crazy and killed each
other.

73
00:05:07,840 --> 00:05:13,200
We're going to figure it out.
But anyways, I want to say that

74
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:15,800
we're recording the Thanksgiving
Day episode right now.

75
00:05:16,280 --> 00:05:18,440
So if that's true, happy
Thanksgiving.

76
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:24,160
Sorry, we're we're not very, you

going to do like a missing 411

81
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:36,640
mystery kind of thing.
And I felt like the Yellow Pass

82
00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:39,040
fit really into that because
we're thankful to be alive,

83
00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:41,240

So we're going to learn about

84
00:05:41,280 --> 00:05:42,840
people who weren't.
Alive.

85
00:05:42,840 --> 00:05:46,080
I didn't say that, but yeah.
Well, that's that's going to be

86
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,600
the new thing.
So like, so Halloween is going

00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,600

00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:56,840
I'm happy I'm not freezing to
death, so yeah.

90
00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,880

Thank you very much.
And then the last thing is

115
00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:21,560
voicemails.
So we're kicking back up the

116
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:25,360
voicemail thing, which is
something we did back halfway

117
00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:28,600
through our our tenure.
You go to

118
00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:31,000
infiniterabbithole.com.
There's a little red microphone

119
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:32,560
button at the bottom right hand
side.

120
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:36,920
You record and a voicemail, some
sort of intro for us for the

121
00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:41,360
episode, say, Hey, everybody,
this is so and so of so and so

122
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:44,720
or what, what of what, right.
So if you're you got a podcast

123
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,440
or if you have a business or if
you have a Amazon page or

124
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:51,120

infinite rabbit hole.

00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:56,120
And what we're going to do is
we're going to take your

127
00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:57,680
voicemail.
We're going to plop it on the

128
00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:00,560
beginning of an episode and it
will always be there.

129
00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:03,200
It's free advertisement.
All we want you to do is

130
00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:06,880
introduce us to listeners.
Simple as that.

131
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:11,200
All right, without further ado,
Jacob.

132
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:13,360
What's up dude?
How you doing man?

133
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:19,320
I took a nap today because I
slept terribly, and then I cut

134
00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:21,760
up some logs with a chainsaw.
That was fun.

135
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:29,320
And Whitney made fried venison
with with potatoes and gravy and

136
00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:31,760
it was just nuts.
It was so good.

137
00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:38,480
And then I came on here, I
didn't mention the next tier for

138
00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:42,679
Patreon is going to be the $15
tier, which $15.00 a month.

00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:50,560
I think it's a great idea she's
going to do.

160
00:09:50,680 --> 00:09:51,920
She's going to draw a lot of
Dicks.

161
00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:56,680
I'll do that if if we could put
glitter in your beard every.

162
00:09:56,680 --> 00:09:57,800
Show.
I'll do it.

163
00:09:58,280 --> 00:09:59,920
That's terrible.
I got daughters.

164
00:09:59,920 --> 00:10:04,280
Man, I got daughters.
They'll do it, Jeff.

165
00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:06,520
We can make a apple.
Does Crystal rub the top of your

166
00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:07,800
head for luck?
Yeah.

167
00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:10,120
And is it lucky?
Depends on who you are.

168
00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:12,480
Well, Crystal.
Are you cute?

169
00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:14,880
And if you're looking at me in
my eyes when you do it, you

170
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:16,360
could be very lucky.
Gross.

171
00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:19,680
He's going to lean in and give
you a kiss right on the tip of

172
00:10:19,680 --> 00:10:21,160
your nose right here.
I don't.

173
00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:22,880
I don't think he can do that.
He's pretty short.

174
00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:25,480
It's just like kiss your throat
or something.

175
00:10:25,560 --> 00:10:28,560
I could reach your collarbones.
I can make it.

176
00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:32,120
Kiss your nipple, I'll.
Climb up your nipple.

177
00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:34,160
I'm married.
I'll climb up you like a little

178
00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:36,480
freaking like a little monkey,
man.

179
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:38,360
I'll just scurry up.
Disgusting.

180
00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:39,960
All right, my mom's listening to
this.

181
00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:43,840
Y'all You're like gross.
All right.

182
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:46,880
You guys ready to dive into
Diatlo Pass?

183
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:49,000
Totally ready.
All right.

184
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:50,840
Cool.
You guys have anything that you

185
00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:52,080
want to put out before we get
going?

186
00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:56,600
My brother said.
My younger brother, youngest

187
00:10:56,640 --> 00:11:03,240
brother said that it was some
sort of radiation event that

188
00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:04,880
caused it to go crazy and kill
each other.

189
00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:08,360
We do dive into that cool.
We do dive into that.

190
00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:13,480
I don't necessarily believe that
that was the the cause, but

191
00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:15,800
there is there is some evidence
for that.

192
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:19,240
Heve you got anything shadow
banned you want to put?

193
00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:24,360
Up.
Not really, still just trying to

194
00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:26,880
do the thing man.
Trying to figure some stuff out.

195
00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:30,200
My living situation is going to
change soon.

196
00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:34,120
I'm not moving but I will be
having some changes so hopefully

197
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:36,760
a new studio here that looks a
little better.

198
00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:38,880
Nice.
Next month.

199
00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:41,640
Yeah, but Crystal to work, huh?
Yeah.

200
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:44,080
Well, what time people hear this
will probably have already

201
00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:48,200
happened, but the people that
are watching live in a couple

202
00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:50,720
weeks.
Crystal don't do anything for

203
00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:52,280
free.
Yeah, that's right.

204
00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:56,920
All right, let's dive into this
and let's go.

205
00:11:57,560 --> 00:12:02,200
Supporting information.
The Yosemite Decimal system is

206
00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:06,360
the rating of the difficulty of
specific hiking trails, runs,

207
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:09,280
and climbs.
The levels range from 1:00 to

208
00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:12,760
5:00 and provide an instant
understanding to planners about

209
00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:16,280
what kind of terrain they could
expect and what kind of gear

210
00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:19,360
they may need.
A class one hike is very low

211
00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:23,960
risk and often follows a well
groomed dirt or gravel trail and

212
00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:26,880
would typically mean that there
would be no special equipment

213
00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:28,960
needed in order to complete the
hike.

214
00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:34,760
Class 2 refers to slightly more
difficult paths that may not be

215
00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:37,440
clearly marked in some or most
places.

216
00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:42,400
These trails may require you to
use your hands to to traverse

217
00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:46,200
certain areas and a good pair of
hiking boots or shoes are

218
00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:48,920
recommended.
Class 3.

219
00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:53,720
Now this one is what the trail
was rated for, the D Outlet Pass

220
00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:57,440
Crew.
Class 3 is where things begin to

221
00:12:57,440 --> 00:13:00,800
get a bit more dangerous.
Here you will expect to use your

222
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:04,480
hands on most of the trail as
you will now be passing by

223
00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:07,680
through and over large rocks and
steep slopes.

224
00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:11,640
You still should not need any
technical climbing gear, but

225
00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:14,240
most people will bring a rope
for added safety.

226
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:18,920
Class 4 is where we surpassed
the idea of a trail and start

227
00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:22,880
referring to the pathway as a
climb and the use of a rope is

228
00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:26,760
fairly mandatory and is
recommended to also bring along

229
00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:31,800
a harness and belay devices.
And finally, a class 5 route is

230
00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:35,760
nothing but rock climbing, often
up shear walls, and requires you

231
00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:39,480
to bring the entirety of
climbing gear such as a rope, a

232
00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:45,360
harness, belay devices, climbing
shoes, a helmet and quick draws

233
00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:48,120
amongst many other optional
pieces of equipment.

234
00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:53,600
This scale is not to be confused
with the six level Welsenbach

235
00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:56,880
scale.
In 1926, Willow Welsenbach

236
00:13:56,880 --> 00:14:01,240
established the scale that would
become known as the UIAA scale

237
00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:07,720
in 1967 after multiple
adaptions, UIAA being a French

238
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:10,960
acronym for International
Climbing and Mountaineering

239
00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:13,840
Federation.
At the time of the Diatlo Pass

240
00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:17,560
incident, the scale was only
recognized to go to Grade 3 in

241
00:14:17,560 --> 00:14:21,720
the Soviet Union.
All 10, All ten members of this

242
00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:25,320
infamous expedition were
classified Grade 2 hikers.

243
00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:29,720
At grade 2, they were labeled as
experienced, but after this

244
00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:33,760
specific expedition, the entire
group would be given the Grade 3

245
00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:38,640
certification and required them
to cover a minimum of 186 miles

246
00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:43,800
or 300 kilometers of ground with
over a third of them being in

247
00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:47,960
what clubs would define as quote
UN quote, challenging terrain

248
00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:52,800
with a minimum duration of 16
days with at least eight days

249
00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:57,440
spent in quote UN quote
uninhabitable regions and six of

250
00:14:57,440 --> 00:14:59,760
those eight nights spent in a
tent.

251
00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:04,800
Author Donnie Iker mentions that
this would give them the title

252
00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:09,160
of master of sport and would
grant them the capability to

253
00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:12,840
officially teach others.
All right, so we started off

254
00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:15,400
nice and slow, right?
We learned about the system and

255
00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:19,880
we're, we're kind of getting an
idea of what kind of path we're

256
00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:23,160
looking at, what kind of trail
they were on, where they were

257
00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:27,680
going, why they were doing it.
So these were students at the

258
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:33,920
Euro Polytechnic Institute and
they were avid hikers, Class 2.

259
00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:38,680
So these are basically your, I
wouldn't say run-of-the-mill.

260
00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:41,160
These are slightly more
experienced than most other

261
00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:43,880
hikers.
They're trusted to go out and do

262
00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:47,520
things on their own, and they
wanted to get their grade 3 so

263
00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:52,160
that they can start instructing.
So in order to do a grade 3 as

264
00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:57,440
part of this Wassenbach scale,
you needed to complete a certain

265
00:15:57,440 --> 00:16:03,160
hike and needed to have certain
challenges there and you needed

266
00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:05,160
to record all of this to be
submitted.

267
00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:07,920
So we'll learn a little bit
more.

268
00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:11,040
But they had a diary, they had
camera, they had all this stuff

269
00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:17,000
to properly record everything
that they could possibly or

270
00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:19,440
everything that they needed to
to prove that they did thoughts

271
00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:20,400
show them.
Sounds tough.

272
00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:24,360
What year was this again?
Man, really?

273
00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:34,120
69. 59. 59 so close.
Only a decade off. 59 OK, so

274
00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:36,880
they definitely weren't carrying
around like some good film

275
00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:38,280
equipment.
I mean, they probably had some

276
00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:41,320
Did they had, did you?
Did you say something about film

277
00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:42,400
equipment?
Yes.

278
00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:43,760
They had a camera.
They had a camera.

279
00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:46,440
A camera.
We're going to talk about a very

280
00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:50,960
famous picture too.
And while we talk, I will Google

281
00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:57,040
up some pictures to show
everybody here during, you know,

282
00:16:57,040 --> 00:17:00,800
the, the, the conversation
pieces of this episode and try

283
00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:03,360
to give you guys an an idea of
who these people were.

284
00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:04,800
OK.
All right.

285
00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:07,640
All right.
You guys ready to roll?

286
00:17:08,599 --> 00:17:09,920
Yeah, yeah.
Cool.

287
00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:13,280
So who were they?
This is where I'm going to mess

288
00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:15,800
up a lot of the pronunciation,
by the way, just so you guys

289
00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:16,920
know.
Use phlegm.

290
00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:21,800
Lots of fun.
Igor Diatlov was a 23 year old

291
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:25,000
studying radio engineering at
UPI.

292
00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:28,840
His family was almost made-up
entirely of engineers and

293
00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:32,800
everyone that knew him would say
that he too held more than the

294
00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:36,960
average intelligence.
Author Donnie Eicher quotes a

295
00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:43,640
friend of his, Volodia Polyanov.
Polyanov in his book Dead

296
00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:50,120
Mountain as saying his technical
knowledge was encyclopedic and

297
00:17:50,120 --> 00:17:55,800
another of his friends Moisey
Axelrod as saying Diatlo's major

298
00:17:55,800 --> 00:18:00,080
contribution was his amazing
ultra shortwave transmitters

299
00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:03,080
that were used for
communications between rafts

300
00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:08,360
when discussing an expedition
the two were a part of in 1958.

301
00:18:09,360 --> 00:18:13,360
Unfortunately, during the
expedition that began on January

302
00:18:13,360 --> 00:18:19,080
23rd of 1959 that eventually led
to his and the other's deaths,

303
00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:22,680
the Outlove did not bring a
shortwave radio as he was more

304
00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:26,040
concerned about other
necessities needed for such a

305
00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:30,520
hike in the dead of winter.
According to author Donnie Iker,

306
00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:36,720
shortwave radios in 1959 were
roughly 100 lbs each and had to

307
00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:40,680
be fabricated by hand as there
were no large scale production

308
00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:44,400
or sale of them commercially.
With the extreme weight of these

309
00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:48,360
radios at the time, it is easy
to see why an expert in radio

310
00:18:48,360 --> 00:18:52,640
communications did not bring a
radio with him on this specific

311
00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:57,840
expedition.
Zuneda Kolmogorova was one of

312
00:18:57,840 --> 00:19:01,600
the two females in the group and
was also a student studying

313
00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:04,760
radio engineering.
She was described as a very

314
00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:07,440
attractive, smart and lively
tomboy.

315
00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:11,480
Zena, as her friends called her,
was given the task of keeping a

316
00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:13,920
well documented diary of the
expedition.

317
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:19,280
The only other female was a
woman by the name of Ludmila

318
00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:25,680
Dubenina or Luda for short, was
only 20 years old at the time

319
00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:27,640
and was the youngest of the
group.

320
00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:32,040
Luda studied construction
industry economics and was

321
00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:34,760
described as a very serious and
strong person.

322
00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:38,680
This was evident as described in
Donnie Eiker's book Dead

323
00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:41,920
Mountain, where he tells of a
previous trip where Luda was

324
00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:46,000
shot in the leg by a fellow
hiker who mishandled a hunting

325
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:50,000
rifle, yet stayed in good
spirits the entire 50 mile trip

326
00:19:50,120 --> 00:19:54,240
back out of the Siberia's
eastern Sion Mountains.

327
00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:58,040
She was given the job of
treasurer of the expedition and

328
00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:01,400
was in charge of the security
and keeping of the group's

329
00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:05,920
funds.
Yuri Yudin, the man who would

330
00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:09,960
turn back early on in the
expedition, was given the task

331
00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:11,920
of keeping and handling first
aid gear.

332
00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:16,560
Yudin was one of three Yuri's in
the group and was A and was a

333
00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:19,720
geology student with a sense of
humor who had struggled

334
00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:24,720
constantly throughout his young
life with rheumatism which

335
00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:28,560
causes intermittent pain in the
joints and connective tissues in

336
00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:31,840
your body as well as a heart
condition and chronic knee and

337
00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:34,080
back pain.
This would ultimately be the

338
00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:36,160
reason for him leaving the group
early.

339
00:20:37,120 --> 00:20:41,200
Yuri Doroshenko was also a radio
engineering student with Igor

340
00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:44,280
and was mentioned as being very
brave by his peers.

341
00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:52,360
Yuri Krivonoshenko AKA Georgie
studied construction and

342
00:20:52,360 --> 00:20:56,400
hydraulics and was considered
some that valued someone that

343
00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:58,720
valued the arts of acting and
music.

344
00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:06,280
Alexander Kolevakov Kolvadov.
Kolovadov was a very private

345
00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:09,600
person who studied nuclear
physics and was in the best

346
00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:15,440
shape out of the entire group.
Ruston Slobodan had already

347
00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:19,360
earned a degree in mechanical
engineering and was the son of

348
00:21:19,360 --> 00:21:23,600
two professors at the
university, Nicolay Thibault

349
00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:30,200
Grignolas AKA Kolia and and he
too already graduated, earning

350
00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:33,040
his degree in Industrial Civil
Construction.

351
00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:37,400
A last minute addition to the
group was the much older 37 year

352
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:43,080
old Alexander Zoltur Zoloteriov,
or as the group would get to

353
00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:46,880
know him as Sasha, a friend of
Diatlov.

354
00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:51,120
Sasha was a local hiking
instructor who Diatlov saw as a

355
00:21:51,120 --> 00:21:59,560
great addition to the team.
All right, so we met everybody.

356
00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:04,960
You guys feel met?
A lot of a lot of a.

357
00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:09,760
Lot of yuris.
Like Yuris, a lot of capable

358
00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:14,400
people in that group that would
really have no problem with

359
00:22:15,120 --> 00:22:19,680
problem solving.
So it's kind of like getting

360
00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:22,800
deep into the story as far as
like, you know, why they would

361
00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:25,200
just go crazy all of a sudden or
just run off into the

362
00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:29,600
wilderness.
Yeah, no, it's it gets good.

363
00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:34,280
So here we can see these are the
pictures of the crew.

364
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:41,040
This one shows all ten of them.
We're going to bring up a

365
00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:46,480
website with this now.
All right, you can see the two

366
00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:50,680
females.
We'll go into a little bit more

367
00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:52,640
of these pictures.
This is what the tent looked

368
00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:55,280
like right here.
This is how it looked when they

369
00:22:55,280 --> 00:23:02,840
found it.
Most of these pictures are of

370
00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:05,800
going up to that day in early
February.

371
00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:06,920
I think it was the first or
second.

372
00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:08,840
We'll get into a little bit more
here in a minute.

373
00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:15,080
This one, I believe right here
is actually crude.

374
00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:19,080
No, that that might be the
actual group too, but there is a

375
00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:24,120
picture out there of the search
crew digging here, right here.

376
00:23:24,120 --> 00:23:26,960
You see this right here.
There's.

377
00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:30,840
No, not clicking right right
here.

378
00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:33,040
You see this right?
Hold on.

379
00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:37,920
You see this right here?
This is we'll we'll talk about a

380
00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:41,080
Creek bed and where three of the
bodies were found.

381
00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:43,160
This is how deep they were in
the Creek bed.

382
00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:46,040
This is everybody that was
digging this, this portion of

383
00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:48,280
right here.
We'll talk about this picture in

384
00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:50,560
particular.
And I think we talked about this

385
00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:54,040
boot rock too.
But there's some there's some

386
00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:56,760
very interesting stuff and we'll
have plenty to talk about

387
00:23:57,560 --> 00:23:59,760
picture wise throughout this
presentation.

388
00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:06,760
What do you think heve?
Well, I mean, I, I had Crystal

389
00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:10,200
Google this story earlier, so I
had a general idea what this was

390
00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:13,040
about.
And so far I think that the

391
00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:18,320
given narrative is probably, you
know, probably accurate so far.

392
00:24:19,360 --> 00:24:21,040
Well, there's only one thing
you've said, and that's the

393
00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:24,480
radiation that has been
questioning the given narrative.

394
00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:26,520
You haven't really said what the
given narrative is yet.

395
00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:27,680
Are you just waiting for that?
Are you?

396
00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:29,520
Are you waiting to tell us?
OK.

397
00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:31,320
Yeah, we'll, we'll get into all
that.

398
00:24:31,360 --> 00:24:36,440
We're going to dissect a lot of
different things here, OK today,

399
00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:39,200
because this, this is at least
going to be a 2 parter.

400
00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:41,920
We got 16 pages.
We're on Page 3 right now.

401
00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:46,480
So I'm hoping that we can keep
this to A2 parter, but I can

402
00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:50,640
also see this going to three.
So so far the only thing that

403
00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:54,000
stands out as weird to me is
radiation.

404
00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:58,960
Yeah, and it'll continue to be
weird.

405
00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:00,800
And really, that's not even that
weird.

406
00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:04,200
I could, I could give you
arguments of why that would be

407
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:07,200
even with the narrative, but go
ahead.

408
00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:09,040
All right.
Yeah, all.

409
00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:12,240
Right, so let's talk about the
search.

410
00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:16,440
This is the portion of the
church before the bodies.

411
00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:19,960
Mid February was a time at the
institute that many students

412
00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:22,840
began returning from home for
upcoming classes.

413
00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:27,240
This was also true for Igor
Diatlov's sister Rufina, who is

414
00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:30,040
also a radio engineering student
at UPI.

415
00:25:30,360 --> 00:25:34,000
She began getting worried a few
days after Igor was meant to be

416
00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:37,640
back from his expedition and
grew even more worried on

417
00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:41,920
February 16th when she attended
a meeting in the administration

418
00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:45,720
building where nobody on staff
showed any concern over their

419
00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:49,040
late arrival.
They gave her non reassuring

420
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:52,200
responses which outlined
scenarios of the possibility of

421
00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:55,520
the group missing the train or
someone spraining an ankle which

422
00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:58,080
would have slowed the entire
trip down immensely.

423
00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:02,440
The concern from other family
members began a few days earlier

424
00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:05,760
on the 13th, which was the day
that the D Outlet group was

425
00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:07,920
scheduled to be back at the
university.

426
00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:11,880
Many of the parents and other
relatives, various members of

427
00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:15,480
the party phoned or went to the
administration building in

428
00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:18,760
person to request information on
their whereabouts.

429
00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:23,000
But to their dismay, the
university repeatedly stated

430
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:25,800
that there was nothing that they
could do at the time and that

431
00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:29,480
the president of the sporting
club would be back in a few days

432
00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:32,960
and he would be able to better
answer their questions.

433
00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:37,000
This continued until the 17th,
when the school finally sent a

434
00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:41,200
telegram to Visay, the village
where the group was supposed to

435
00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:45,520
be traveling from, just prior to
showing back up on campus.

436
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:50,040
The next day, when Lev Gordo,
the school's sporting club

437
00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:53,320
director, returned, he broke the
news to families that their

438
00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:57,800
telegram was returned.
Quote The Diatlov group did not

439
00:26:57,800 --> 00:27:00,760
return.
This kick started the the

440
00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:04,560
construction of a search party
and the travel of Gordo and the

441
00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:08,640
leader of another hiking group,
Yuri Blinov, whose group had

442
00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:12,760
accompanied Diatlov's group for
the first leg of the trip before

443
00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:17,320
breaking off on their own path
to Evedale, the gateway to the

444
00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:21,200
Northern Urals.
It was then that they discovered

445
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:25,200
that the route of the Diatlav
group had never been posted at

446
00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:28,440
the local hiking Commission,
which made it impossible to know

447
00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:32,080
where to look past the point
where Diatlav and Blinov's

448
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:36,920
groups separated.
The search officially began on

449
00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:41,280
the 20th when Blinov and Gordo
are taking on board a Yak 12

450
00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:45,120
surveillance plane, where they
searched the surrounding area

451
00:27:45,120 --> 00:27:49,480
until cloud coverage and winds
made them turn back just prior

452
00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:52,720
to nightfall.
On the same day, Yuri Yudin

453
00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:57,000
arrives back on campus and is
surprised that but not alarmed

454
00:27:57,280 --> 00:28:00,200
at the news of his friends not
showing up on campus yet.

455
00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:04,160
He explains that when he broke
off from the group, they were

456
00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:07,760
three days behind schedule.
At this point they would be 6

457
00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:11,680
days behind and Huden saw that
as completely possible and was

458
00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:16,400
not alarmed by their tardiness.
The next day Lenov and Gordo are

459
00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:19,520
back in the air when they
noticed that the Monsey village

460
00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:23,760
of Bhatiyaruova.
They descend to ask the tribe if

461
00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:27,040
they had any run insurance with
Diatlov and his team.

462
00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:31,160
They are pleasantly surprised to
hear that they that the group

463
00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:35,360
did not or did stop in and
warmed up with tea, but they

464
00:28:35,360 --> 00:28:38,600
opted out of staying the night
and quickly headed back on their

465
00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:40,840
trail and into a nearby tree
line.

466
00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:45,520
It's not until February 25th
until they finally catch a break

467
00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:50,840
when someone spots a skiing
track made by the Asupia River,

468
00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:55,400
where they would find evidence
of a camp the Outlive team could

469
00:28:55,400 --> 00:29:00,160
have used in the expedition.
But unfortunately, the next

470
00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:03,560
morning they were unable to pick
up the trail again, so they

471
00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:07,320
decided to follow the river to
the intended destination of the

472
00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:11,800
lost group, Autorton Mountain.
It was at the top of a hill

473
00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:15,160
close to the mountain that
search team member Mikhail

474
00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:19,680
Sharavan noticed a sliver of a
black tent poking out through

475
00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:24,080
the ocean of white snow.
Sharavan and his search partner

476
00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:28,400
Boris Slopstov began their
descent towards the half

477
00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:31,000
collapsed tent which was now
under the snow.

478
00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:35,320
The two men call out for the
lost group but they receive no

479
00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:37,920
answers.
As they approach the still

480
00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:42,320
standing S facing entrance of
the tent, they notice an axe and

481
00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:44,480
a dead flashlight buried in the
snow.

482
00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:49,160
Sharavan grabs the axe and
slices an opening in the tent,

483
00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:53,800
and is surprised to find that
there was nobody inside the be.

484
00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:57,680
The belongings of the D Outlook
group were left in such a way

485
00:29:57,760 --> 00:30:02,000
that when Boris and Mikhail
began to observe the scene, it

486
00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:05,600
looked like the group was only
gone from the tent temporarily.

487
00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:09,520
Clothes were neatly folded, food
was ready to be eaten in the

488
00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:12,880
middle of the tent, and multiple
pairs of boots were lined up

489
00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:16,360
neatly by the wall.
It was only the fact that half

490
00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:20,640
of the tent had collapsed and
the amount of time they were

491
00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:23,400
gone that they even questioned
their safety.

492
00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:27,640
Among some of the other things
left behind by D Out Love and

493
00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:32,080
his crew were jackets, a camera,
rubbing alcohol, skis, a

494
00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:34,600
flashlight, and of course, the
axe.

495
00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:38,680
But unfortunately daylight was
coming to an end and the men

496
00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:42,720
began hiking back to base camp.
When they arrived back at their

497
00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:45,920
camp, the radiogram operator
sends out a message of the news

498
00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:50,600
of the discovery and in response
from the town of Yvdah a request

499
00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:54,640
that a helipad and campsite be
built for 50 people as well as

500
00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:57,960
the strict order that absolutely
nothing shall be touched inside

501
00:30:57,960 --> 00:31:00,920
that tent.
Unfortunately, Boris and Mikhail

502
00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:03,720
had returned with some of the
lost groups gear as proof of

503
00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:07,480
their discovery, so that order
was already broken before it was

504
00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:11,640
made.
The next day a wave of searchers

505
00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:17,200
shows up, including dogs, police
officers, hiking advisors, Monzi

506
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:20,920
volunteers and many others.
It was about 20 yards away from

507
00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:23,480
the tent that the first set of
footprints were found.

508
00:31:23,680 --> 00:31:28,080
Soon after, a total of 9 unique
sets of footprints were found to

509
00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:32,200
be split up into two parallel
lines, moving away from the tent

510
00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:35,800
and merging back together.
Once in the valley below.

511
00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:40,120
The most concerning thing about
the Prince were that whoever had

512
00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:42,400
left them.
We're not wearing any boots or

513
00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:44,920
shoes.
These were made by bare feet.

514
00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:49,920
Around noon, a young man comes
across what looks like charred

515
00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:55,080
cedar branches partially buried
under the snow under a cedar

516
00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:57,320
tree.
After moving some of the snow

517
00:31:57,320 --> 00:32:00,960
away, they saw what resembles a
very poorly made campfire.

518
00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:04,880
But just beyond that, another
man calls out a ghastly

519
00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:07,880
discovery.
He had found a human knee

520
00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:11,840
sticking out of the snow just to
the north of the makeshift fire

521
00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:14,640
pit.
The 1st 2 bodies are found lying

522
00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:18,560
side by side, one of which was
wearing a checkered shirt and a

523
00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:22,640
pair of swim trunks under long
underwear, with only one leg of

524
00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:25,480
the garment still present and
bare feet.

525
00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:29,480
The other body was wearing an
undershirt, long underwear,

526
00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:32,400
briefs and socks.
Both of their clothes are torn

527
00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:34,960
multiple places, revealing bare
frozen skin.

528
00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:39,040
One was face down with arms
folded under his head with

529
00:32:39,040 --> 00:32:43,720
broken cedar branches below him.
The other was on his back with

530
00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:46,800
his mouth and eyes partially
eaten by small animals.

531
00:32:47,400 --> 00:32:50,640
Without hesitation, Boris and
Mikhail easily recognized the

532
00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:54,560
man laying on the stomach as
Yuri Doroshenko and the other

533
00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:58,960
being the body of Georgie Krivo
Krivo Mishchenko.

534
00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:02,440
All right, so we found the 1st 2
bodies guys.

535
00:33:03,960 --> 00:33:05,520
Thoughts.
It's rough.

536
00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:08,320
Yeah, that sucks.
Definitely sucks.

537
00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:11,000
It's going to suck worse.
Just so you know, I.

538
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:13,320
Want to go on adventures but I
don't want to end up dead.

539
00:33:14,560 --> 00:33:15,960
While you were talking, I pulled
up.

540
00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:18,920
I'm looking at Google Earth
because Google Earth is freaking

541
00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:21,600
awesome.
Just looking at the area.

542
00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:23,360
Dude, it's in the middle of
fucking share it.

543
00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:25,880
Share it with us bro.
Share it with us, I'll share it.

544
00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:28,200
I forgot I could do that.
Dude, Internet.

545
00:33:28,920 --> 00:33:31,960
Skeeter very well, I think
Jeremy's hair is getting sore.

546
00:33:31,960 --> 00:33:34,760
Treating.
Bro, here it is right here.

547
00:33:34,920 --> 00:33:39,920
Those those names are hard.
The Outlook pass, Yeah, right.

548
00:33:40,160 --> 00:33:43,280
And it's nowhere in the middle
of freaking.

549
00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:45,160
And you can zoom out.
You can see like the whole

550
00:33:45,160 --> 00:33:47,120
earth, and it's still in the
middle of nowhere.

551
00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:52,440
Yeah.
Scroll in because at the bottom

552
00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:55,960
of the hill there should be a,
there should be a river close to

553
00:33:55,960 --> 00:33:57,040
that.
I'm curious.

554
00:33:57,040 --> 00:33:58,320
I want to see how close that
was.

555
00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:00,080
I never even thought about
looking at.

556
00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:02,560
Oh yeah, there it is.
This.

557
00:34:02,920 --> 00:34:06,440
Yeah, never even thought about
looking at Google Earth.

558
00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:07,920
That's awesome.
Yeah.

559
00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:10,080
And then there's all these like
pictures.

560
00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:13,800
The thing is like you can see.
There's boot rock.

561
00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:16,639
Yep.
It looks barren but then you

562
00:34:16,639 --> 00:34:18,400
look closer and it's like no,
those are trees.

563
00:34:18,480 --> 00:34:21,199
It's just a wall of trees man.
Yep.

564
00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:23,600
Like who knows what the fuck is
out there.

565
00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:27,280
Oh yeah.
It looks cold as shit too.

566
00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:31,000
Oh yeah, dude, it's in.
It's in the Ural Mountains

567
00:34:32,159 --> 00:34:34,400
fucking freezing.
They got memorials.

568
00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:40,400
You know what's interesting too
is that even on Google Earth, it

569
00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:45,120
says here, the Outlook Pass
remote mountainous area.

570
00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:48,960
Excuse me, Remote mountainous
area with a mystery.

571
00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:54,159
Oh yeah, definitely a mystery.
I mean, there there is the

572
00:34:54,159 --> 00:35:00,200
official narrative which we'll
dive into, but trust me, not all

573
00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:03,080
the pieces fit.
Remote and mountainous.

574
00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:06,520
Mountainous.
Yeah, mountainous.

575
00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:10,640
You guys got anything else?
You guys ready to move on?

576
00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:13,800
Yeah, I'm ready to move on.
I want to hear about these other

577
00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:15,880
bodies.
Unfortunately trying to get it

578
00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:20,280
more of a more of an idea of
what I think happened.

579
00:35:21,560 --> 00:35:26,200
More bodies soon after.
Just a few 100 yards away,

580
00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:31,080
another searcher stepping.
Korokov and his German Shepherd

581
00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:34,760
are combing the area when the
dog anxiously alerts to a

582
00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:38,840
possible trail leading to the
tree with his arms folded.

583
00:35:39,440 --> 00:35:42,400
I'm sorry.
Leading to a bent over young

584
00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:44,920
Birch tree.
Here is where they find the

585
00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:48,840
remains of Igor Diatlov,
clutched to the tree with his

586
00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:53,000
arms folded across his chest as
if he were holding on to the

587
00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:57,400
sapling for dear life.
He is covered in more clothing

588
00:35:57,880 --> 00:36:00,840
than the other two bodies
previously found, but is still

589
00:36:00,840 --> 00:36:05,560
without gloves, hat or boots.
Several 100 yards away from the

590
00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:10,560
Birch, in the direction of the
abandoned tent, another body is

591
00:36:10,560 --> 00:36:14,400
found by another man and his
dog, this one female.

592
00:36:14,760 --> 00:36:18,160
She was found lying on her right
side with her face facing

593
00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:21,520
downward, and her face is
covered in dry blood.

594
00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:26,160
She is the first body found that
is dressed mostly appropriately.

595
00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:29,960
She is wearing a hat, snow
jacket, and snow pants.

596
00:36:30,240 --> 00:36:32,800
So like the others, she's only
wearing socks.

597
00:36:33,360 --> 00:36:37,040
She would be later identified as
Xena Kolmogorova.

598
00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:41,440
Shortly after the discovery of
the 1st 4 bodies, another group

599
00:36:41,440 --> 00:36:45,120
is making progress in uncovering
the part of the tent that

600
00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:48,840
collapsed under the snow.
Here they made the discovery

601
00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:52,680
that on the on the north facing
portion of the tent, the tarp

602
00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:55,160
material was torn in multiple
places.

603
00:36:55,920 --> 00:36:59,760
By the end of the day on
February 27th, the local lead

604
00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:03,800
prosecutor would be taken off of
the case without any real reason

605
00:37:04,040 --> 00:37:07,520
and replaced by regional
prosecutor Lev Ivanov.

606
00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:13,880
On March 1st, shortly after the
arrival of Ivanov, the team

607
00:37:13,880 --> 00:37:17,240
discovers the reason for the
branches stuck under the body of

608
00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:21,200
Yuri Doroshenko.
Due to damage of the cedar tree

609
00:37:21,200 --> 00:37:23,320
that the first two bodies were
found.

610
00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:27,520
It would seem that Doroshenko
was in the tree and fell after a

611
00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:30,880
branch gave way.
It is assumed that he had fallen

612
00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:33,400
to his death while clutching
onto the branch.

613
00:37:34,120 --> 00:37:37,080
Another interesting piece of
evidence was found during this

614
00:37:37,080 --> 00:37:39,720
time.
There was a neatly made pile of

615
00:37:39,720 --> 00:37:43,720
tree limbs and sticks under a
layer of snow right next to the

616
00:37:43,720 --> 00:37:47,080
makeshift fireplace.
So the question was raised on

617
00:37:47,240 --> 00:37:49,920
why would someone leave the
sticks there without burning

618
00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:52,840
them?
Even though there were a few

619
00:37:52,840 --> 00:37:56,440
ideas floating around that
seemed to be false, there was a

620
00:37:56,560 --> 00:37:58,200
picture starting to come
together.

621
00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:02,440
Regional Prosecutor Lev Ivanov
believe that they had begun

622
00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:05,280
dinner and started to get
dressed out of their wet and

623
00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:08,680
cold gear when something
happened that wood forest them

624
00:38:08,680 --> 00:38:11,720
out of the tent.
Unfortunately, that is all that

625
00:38:11,720 --> 00:38:18,280
could be painted at that time.
A few days went by due to a

626
00:38:18,280 --> 00:38:21,360
fierce storm that came through
the area before the searching

627
00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:25,760
could continue, and on March 4th
the team storage structure meant

628
00:38:25,760 --> 00:38:30,280
to hold the portion of food and
gear needed for the return trip

629
00:38:30,280 --> 00:38:34,760
was found by the Asupia River at
the bottom of the hillside.

630
00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:38,880
The shelter was standing just
fine with no damage.

631
00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:42,880
Everything seemed to be in place
and showed no signs that it was

632
00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:46,240
looted or even visited by any of
the D Outlet party.

633
00:38:47,240 --> 00:38:52,280
On March 5th, the 5th body was
found just about 1000 yards away

634
00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:55,520
from the tent in a yet unchecked
area.

635
00:38:55,920 --> 00:38:58,560
This would be the remains of
rustic Schleboden.

636
00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:02,680
Slobodan was found face down and
almost fully clothed.

637
00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:06,080
His right leg was tucked
underneath him and one of his

638
00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:11,280
hands were clasped in were
clasped near the center of his

639
00:39:11,280 --> 00:39:14,160
chest.
There were two very disturbing

640
00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:19,000
details of the scene 1 which was
a small frozen valley in the

641
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:22,360
packed snow where his nose and
mouth were.

642
00:39:22,840 --> 00:39:26,320
This shows that he was quite
alive and still breathing for a

643
00:39:26,320 --> 00:39:29,480
while after falling to his
eventual death.

644
00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:33,760
The other detail was that the
front of his head was very

645
00:39:33,760 --> 00:39:37,040
discolored and was typical to
blunt force trauma.

646
00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:42,160
The new body and the tent were
packed away and sent back to Eve

647
00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:44,840
Doc.
But there was one more

648
00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:48,680
interesting detail discovered
about the tears at the North End

649
00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:51,200
of the tent.
Now that they were able to get a

650
00:39:51,200 --> 00:39:54,440
better look with all the snow
removed and the lighting was

651
00:39:54,440 --> 00:39:59,480
better, the cuts were made very
clean, as if they were made by a

652
00:39:59,480 --> 00:40:03,120
very sharp object.
This first thought was that

653
00:40:03,680 --> 00:40:06,680
their first thought was that it
was a knife, and they found it

654
00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:09,400
hard to believe that the group
would damage their own source of

655
00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:13,080
protection from the elements.
But it was the further

656
00:40:13,080 --> 00:40:18,800
inspection by G Shurkinya.
The scientific officer placed in

657
00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:22,280
charge of investigating the cuts
on the wall of the tent opposite

658
00:40:22,280 --> 00:40:26,520
the entryway that it was proven
that the cuts did not originate

659
00:40:26,520 --> 00:40:30,600
from within the tent.
That they did originate from

660
00:40:30,600 --> 00:40:32,600
within the tent, not from
outside.

661
00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:36,160
This new detail would lend to
the belief that whatever

662
00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:39,480
happened that night, the crew
were unable to exit through the

663
00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:42,920
front and had to cut their way
out of the back instead.

664
00:40:43,720 --> 00:40:46,960
The cause of death for the first
four bodies was made official on

665
00:40:46,960 --> 00:40:51,560
March 4th and Rustic's body on
March 11th after thorough

666
00:40:51,560 --> 00:40:53,880
forensic investigations were
conducted.

667
00:40:54,120 --> 00:40:57,240
Their findings?
All five had passed away from

668
00:40:57,240 --> 00:41:00,440
hypothermia.
It wasn't until May 3rd when the

669
00:41:00,440 --> 00:41:04,040
next piece of evidence was
found, a time period that comes

670
00:41:04,040 --> 00:41:08,760
close to being 2 entire months.
Let's say May 3rd or March 3rd.

671
00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:12,480
It wasn't until May 3rd when the
next piece of evidence was

672
00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:15,560
found, a time period that comes
close to being 2 entire months.

673
00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:19,880
A group of searchers are digging
near a Creek bed when they begin

674
00:41:19,880 --> 00:41:24,360
to find a cache of clothing.
This clothing is torn and in

675
00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:26,920
pieces, but there is a lot of
it.

676
00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:30,840
So much that they continue to
collect articles of torn

677
00:41:30,840 --> 00:41:34,760
clothing for most of the day,
and continued the next morning.

678
00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:39,320
It was on the evening of the 4th
that the last four bodies were

679
00:41:39,320 --> 00:41:44,440
found at the bottom of nearly 8
feet of snow, three of which

680
00:41:44,520 --> 00:41:48,920
were so badly decomposed in the
Creek itself that there was no

681
00:41:48,920 --> 00:41:52,520
way to identify them.
The fourth, however, was

682
00:41:52,520 --> 00:41:59,000
recognizable as Luda all torn.
All of the last four bodies were

683
00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:02,240
sparsely clothed, and the
clothes that they did have on

684
00:42:02,440 --> 00:42:06,440
were so badly torn that even if
they were alive after what

685
00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:09,760
happened to them, they had no
chance of surviving the frigid

686
00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:13,440
temperatures of the night time.
Two of the bodies that laid in

687
00:42:13,440 --> 00:42:16,720
the Creek were holding each
other, most likely as a last

688
00:42:16,720 --> 00:42:20,200
resort of conserving body heat.
The remains were quickly

689
00:42:20,200 --> 00:42:25,240
gathered and transported back to
Eidat to reduce the amount the

690
00:42:25,240 --> 00:42:29,240
additional amount decay that
could happen prior to a proper

691
00:42:29,240 --> 00:42:32,040
autopsy.
The first body to be

692
00:42:32,040 --> 00:42:35,240
investigated would later be
identified as Alexander

693
00:42:35,240 --> 00:42:39,280
Kolovatov who was easily
pronounced to have died by

694
00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:42,640
hypothermia.
Next was the older man Sasha,

695
00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:46,920
who is surprisingly who
surprisingly had a really bad

696
00:42:46,920 --> 00:42:48,840
injury to the right side of his
chest.

697
00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:53,520
Including included in the injury
were 5 broken ribs and a bruise

698
00:42:53,520 --> 00:42:55,880
that took up most of the right
side of his torso.

699
00:42:56,600 --> 00:43:00,080
Due to the bruising, it was
determined that Sasha sustained

700
00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:04,640
this injury while still alive.
The official statement claimed

701
00:43:04,640 --> 00:43:08,400
that the injuries had been
inflicted by a quote UN quote

702
00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:13,200
large force.
Kolya was next and he too seemed

703
00:43:13,200 --> 00:43:17,760
to have suffered an injury by a
quote UN quote large force, but

704
00:43:17,760 --> 00:43:20,320
in his case the damage was done
to his head.

705
00:43:20,600 --> 00:43:25,440
The coroner ruled that this
injury had been inflicted while

706
00:43:25,440 --> 00:43:28,680
he was still alive due to the
large amount of hemorrhaging

707
00:43:28,680 --> 00:43:33,880
discovered in the skull Dome.
Last was Luda, her case was the

708
00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:37,880
most concerning as she had
sustained massive damage to her

709
00:43:37,880 --> 00:43:42,680
throat as well as 9 broken ribs
and a massive amount of internal

710
00:43:42,680 --> 00:43:47,440
hemorrhaging, mostly from her
right heart ventral.

711
00:43:48,160 --> 00:43:51,840
The last detail that was
discovered about her injuries

712
00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:55,280
was that she was missing her
tongue and the coroner would

713
00:43:55,280 --> 00:43:59,440
provide no reason for why.
Hers as well as Sasha's and

714
00:43:59,440 --> 00:44:03,040
Koya's death were the only three
that were determined to be by

715
00:44:03,240 --> 00:44:07,360
quote UN quote violent injuries,
but the strangest detail of

716
00:44:07,360 --> 00:44:09,240
their deaths was yet to be
discovered.

717
00:44:09,240 --> 00:44:13,440
At this point.
On the 8th of May, Ivan of May

718
00:44:13,880 --> 00:44:17,120
Ivanov requested that
radiological tests be done on

719
00:44:17,120 --> 00:44:20,920
all of their organs.
A week later the tests came back

720
00:44:20,920 --> 00:44:25,400
to show that organs of the
victim showed the radioactive

721
00:44:25,400 --> 00:44:30,840
substance known as potassium 40.
This was actively not of any

722
00:44:30,840 --> 00:44:34,440
concern as this was a normal
substance found in the

723
00:44:34,440 --> 00:44:38,120
decomposing of various human
organs, but when a test was

724
00:44:38,120 --> 00:44:41,040
performed on their clothing
showed the level of this

725
00:44:41,040 --> 00:44:44,280
particular beta particle was far
over.

726
00:44:44,280 --> 00:44:48,480
The Soviet sanitary standards
and the story of Diotla past

727
00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:52,040
sprung into the history books
for conspiracy theorists

728
00:44:52,080 --> 00:44:54,880
everywhere.
According to author Donnie

729
00:44:54,880 --> 00:44:58,080
Eicher in his book Dead
Mountain, The Untold Story of

730
00:44:58,080 --> 00:45:03,480
the Diotla Pass Incident, the
Soviet quote UN quote standard

731
00:45:03,600 --> 00:45:11,840
or the Soviet standard quote
standard for beta part particle

732
00:45:11,840 --> 00:45:16,240
contamination was under 5000
decays per minute per 23 square

733
00:45:16,240 --> 00:45:19,360
inches.
But one particular brown sweater

734
00:45:19,360 --> 00:45:22,880
owned by one of the hikers was
measured at almost double that

735
00:45:22,880 --> 00:45:28,680
at 9900 decays per minute, with
the rest of the clothing also

736
00:45:28,680 --> 00:45:31,920
measuring above safe standards
and even exceeds the

737
00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:35,240
contamination found on people
who work with radioactive

738
00:45:35,240 --> 00:45:39,160
substances.
Then, as Iker points out, you

739
00:45:39,160 --> 00:45:41,640
would have to think that due to
the amount of time that the

740
00:45:41,640 --> 00:45:44,800
bodies were missing, the initial
contamination must have been

741
00:45:44,800 --> 00:45:48,720
much higher.
But unfortunately, this does not

742
00:45:48,720 --> 00:45:52,240
answer the cause of death, as
author Donnie Eiker reached out

743
00:45:52,240 --> 00:45:55,800
to Doctor Christopher Strauss,
associate professor of radiology

744
00:45:55,800 --> 00:45:58,520
at the University of Chicago
Medical Center, with the

745
00:45:58,520 --> 00:46:01,440
original results.
His claim is that although they

746
00:46:01,440 --> 00:46:05,760
are elevated, the lethal amount
would have had to have been

747
00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:09,760
hundreds of times stronger to
cause lethal damage.

748
00:46:10,880 --> 00:46:14,080
Almost immediately after the
discovery of radiation on the

749
00:46:14,080 --> 00:46:18,080
hikers clothing, Ivanov was
given immediate orders to end

750
00:46:18,080 --> 00:46:20,200
the investigations into the
case.

751
00:46:20,720 --> 00:46:25,080
The only thing left as the cause
of the death for the last four

752
00:46:25,080 --> 00:46:30,160
bodies found at the outlook past
was quote UN quote, an unknown

753
00:46:30,400 --> 00:46:34,960
compelling force.
All right, guys, we have found

754
00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:42,200
all of the bodies.
I got a couple of different

755
00:46:42,200 --> 00:46:44,440
theories rolling around in my
head, but First off I just want

756
00:46:44,440 --> 00:46:47,360
to say I need that Ritz Bits
with Cheese sponsorship so if

757
00:46:47,360 --> 00:46:49,880
anybody out there knows anybody,
please let him know.

758
00:46:50,600 --> 00:46:56,080
Jeez, I have no theories so far.
No the addition.

759
00:46:56,120 --> 00:47:03,480
Of an unsafe level of potassium
40 at first I mean surface

760
00:47:03,480 --> 00:47:06,080
level, not knowing anything
about the outlook pass.

761
00:47:06,080 --> 00:47:08,720
I was just like this is a
Bigfoot incident all that sort

762
00:47:08,720 --> 00:47:12,360
of stuff.
But now with this super dose of

763
00:47:12,360 --> 00:47:14,600
radiation in the area, I do
don't.

764
00:47:14,600 --> 00:47:16,800
It's a tough one, man.
Yeah, that's the thing.

765
00:47:17,040 --> 00:47:20,680
And that's The thing is that the
radiation obviously, well, so it

766
00:47:20,680 --> 00:47:22,480
seems isn't the thing that
killed them.

767
00:47:23,400 --> 00:47:27,280
But is high levels of radiation
enough to make people go crazy?

768
00:47:27,280 --> 00:47:29,160
You know, is that, is that a
thing?

769
00:47:29,160 --> 00:47:34,440
Or it was just on top of all the
layers of all the stuff.

770
00:47:34,440 --> 00:47:39,400
So blunt force traumas, falling
out of trees, you know, not

771
00:47:39,400 --> 00:47:42,880
wearing boots, leaving in a
hurry, all this sort of stuff,

772
00:47:42,880 --> 00:47:46,000
ladies missing her tongue, you
know, all the all this craziness

773
00:47:46,000 --> 00:47:48,320
going on.
And then on top of all of that,

774
00:47:48,680 --> 00:47:52,680
also there is high radiation
levels, You know, I, I don't

775
00:47:52,680 --> 00:47:56,480
know whether or not this is
something that for me is adds to

776
00:47:56,480 --> 00:47:59,920
the what happened or if it's
just another thing that was

777
00:47:59,920 --> 00:48:02,840
there in the same way.
It's like there was snow there,

778
00:48:02,840 --> 00:48:04,520
right?
This could have happened when

779
00:48:04,520 --> 00:48:08,400
there wasn't any snow and they
all died these crazy, terrible

780
00:48:08,400 --> 00:48:10,800
deaths.
But also it was snowing.

781
00:48:10,800 --> 00:48:13,720
So I don't know if it was like
something that led up to it or

782
00:48:13,720 --> 00:48:16,680
it was something that kind of
just existed alongside it.

783
00:48:16,720 --> 00:48:18,040
I don't know if that makes any
sense.

784
00:48:18,360 --> 00:48:21,520
Well, the other thing that's
weird besides radiation is the

785
00:48:21,520 --> 00:48:26,880
guy that's 1000 yards away.
He's 1000 yards away in what?

786
00:48:26,880 --> 00:48:28,360
His nose?
In what His.

787
00:48:29,000 --> 00:48:30,000
His.
Nose and eyes.

788
00:48:30,480 --> 00:48:32,320
His nose and eyes.
Tongue and eyes.

789
00:48:32,320 --> 00:48:33,840
Tongue soft tissue, soft tissue,
but.

790
00:48:33,960 --> 00:48:35,880
They said actually he's a small
animals right the.

791
00:48:36,040 --> 00:48:41,040
Fact that he's 1000 yards away
tells me like something

792
00:48:41,040 --> 00:48:43,080
happened.
Like OK, so.

793
00:48:43,280 --> 00:48:45,480
Hey, can I can I stop you for
just a second?

794
00:48:45,800 --> 00:48:48,520
Yeah.
I I must not have included it,

795
00:48:48,520 --> 00:48:51,720
but those four bodies that we
just discovered in the Creek bed

796
00:48:53,040 --> 00:48:54,800
a little over a mile away?
Holy shit.

797
00:48:55,680 --> 00:48:57,720
OK, so something traumatic
happened.

798
00:48:58,840 --> 00:49:00,440
I first thought was like a bear
or something, right?

799
00:49:00,440 --> 00:49:04,120
Because you got guys with broken
ribs and and all this, but

800
00:49:05,400 --> 00:49:07,200
doesn't really make sense
because they'd be eaten by the

801
00:49:07,200 --> 00:49:10,640
bear, right?
Or you'd have a dead bear around

802
00:49:11,040 --> 00:49:13,520
one or the other.
And but then you, you, you know,

803
00:49:13,520 --> 00:49:15,080
it could be something else,
could be like a moose or

804
00:49:15,080 --> 00:49:16,120
something.
I don't know what kind of

805
00:49:17,120 --> 00:49:20,920
animals, big animals live out in
Russia, but you know, they could

806
00:49:20,920 --> 00:49:23,600
have got trampled by some
something.

807
00:49:23,600 --> 00:49:28,600
Sure, right.
And then homie walks 1000 yards

808
00:49:28,600 --> 00:49:34,560
in this direction, dies these
other what, 3-4 people, whatever

809
00:49:34,840 --> 00:49:37,040
they go the other direct
whatever direction they went in.

810
00:49:37,560 --> 00:49:40,880
I lost track of all these
details but I don't know what

811
00:49:40,880 --> 00:49:44,440
direction everybody went in but.
Yeah, it's a lot, man.

812
00:49:44,600 --> 00:49:46,640
It's a lot.
I mean, it's tough because

813
00:49:46,640 --> 00:49:49,120
there's 1010 hikers all
together, right?

814
00:49:49,120 --> 00:49:53,840
It's there's 10 when you include
Yuri Yudin, who's the guy that

815
00:49:53,840 --> 00:49:59,680
turned back 99 bodies and to
track all their stories is a

816
00:49:59,680 --> 00:50:06,520
lot.
I want to say that I go over it

817
00:50:06,520 --> 00:50:09,680
one more time, but a little bit
more in depth and break it down

818
00:50:09,680 --> 00:50:11,920
a little bit.
I do want to talk real quick

819
00:50:11,920 --> 00:50:13,560
about what Skeeter just put in
the chat.

820
00:50:14,920 --> 00:50:20,160
An avalanche.
Now, that is one of the biggest

821
00:50:20,160 --> 00:50:23,400
theories.
But Jeff, if you remember one of

822
00:50:23,400 --> 00:50:27,720
the photos that you just showed
us of the green hill, that's

823
00:50:27,720 --> 00:50:32,120
colossi cow.
That's it's not steep enough for

824
00:50:32,120 --> 00:50:35,480
an avalanche.
And it's been proven that in

825
00:50:35,480 --> 00:50:38,880
order to have an avalanche,
there's this equation that you

826
00:50:38,880 --> 00:50:42,240
have to have, right?
You have the density of snow,

827
00:50:42,400 --> 00:50:45,280
loose pack.
You have to have loose pack snow

828
00:50:45,480 --> 00:50:48,840
with heavy pack snow on top of
it.

829
00:50:49,360 --> 00:50:52,000
And then on top of that, there
also needs to be a certain

830
00:50:52,000 --> 00:50:58,800
degree angle for it to actually
build up the momentum to create

831
00:50:58,800 --> 00:51:01,400
an avalanche.
Now, if there was an avalanche

832
00:51:01,400 --> 00:51:05,920
up there, they say it would only
slide about 5 feet at most.

833
00:51:08,320 --> 00:51:11,720
That and then also the tent
wasn't buried.

834
00:51:12,840 --> 00:51:14,080
Correct.
Right, it was 4.

835
00:51:14,080 --> 00:51:17,040
Of the bodies were in the Creek,
but the rest of them weren't

836
00:51:17,480 --> 00:51:21,280
right.
So, you know, you would think

837
00:51:21,280 --> 00:51:25,200
that that that tent would be
scattered all over the side of

838
00:51:25,200 --> 00:51:27,880
colossi cow.
It would just be fucking

839
00:51:27,880 --> 00:51:32,040
everywhere and there there
wouldn't be, you know, the the

840
00:51:32,040 --> 00:51:35,240
stove and dinnerware and
everything set up nice and neat

841
00:51:35,240 --> 00:51:39,080
in the middle of the tent.
It it just wouldn't be that way

842
00:51:39,960 --> 00:51:40,880
now.
Yes, there was.

843
00:51:41,520 --> 00:51:44,120
There was snow piled up on The
North Face of it.

844
00:51:44,440 --> 00:51:47,160
So yeah, there, you know, wind
blowing and everything probably

845
00:51:47,160 --> 00:51:49,600
caught that side and built up
drafts.

846
00:51:49,600 --> 00:51:52,520
You got to understand that by
the time they found it, you're

847
00:51:52,520 --> 00:51:56,320
looking at almost a month after
this whole thing happened in the

848
00:51:56,320 --> 00:51:59,680
middle of the Ural Mountains.
This is highwind, cold snowing

849
00:51:59,680 --> 00:52:01,600
all the time.
So yeah, there's going to be a

850
00:52:01,600 --> 00:52:05,240
lot of snow that built up on on
at least one of the sides.

851
00:52:06,760 --> 00:52:09,200
What?
I think is more like what I

852
00:52:09,200 --> 00:52:11,560
think is more likely than like
an avalanche.

853
00:52:11,560 --> 00:52:13,640
Obviously, like doesn't seem
likely.

854
00:52:14,440 --> 00:52:16,000
The there's a lot of trees,
right?

855
00:52:16,000 --> 00:52:18,120
Like I was showing those
pictures earlier from Google

856
00:52:18,120 --> 00:52:20,440
Earth like it's just a blanket
of trees.

857
00:52:20,440 --> 00:52:24,920
So, you know, it's possible to
me that some of the the canopy,

858
00:52:24,920 --> 00:52:29,640
the tree canopy was just holding
enough snow up there.

859
00:52:29,920 --> 00:52:33,000
And maybe they just happened to,
they just fucked up, man.

860
00:52:33,480 --> 00:52:36,480
They put camp right where it
shouldn't have been and maybe a

861
00:52:37,160 --> 00:52:40,200
whole bunch of the snow came
down and with some branches

862
00:52:40,720 --> 00:52:44,280
right and just bam.
Fucking bunch of, let me say,

863
00:52:44,280 --> 00:52:48,560
man, in every single theory of
what could possibly happen.

864
00:52:48,560 --> 00:52:51,160
And we go through a lot of them.
A lot of them.

865
00:52:51,200 --> 00:52:57,600
And I telling you, most of my
research into this, this event

866
00:52:58,360 --> 00:53:04,440
didn't come from books.
It came from textbooks because I

867
00:53:04,440 --> 00:53:09,000
still have access to my old
college online library and I was

868
00:53:09,000 --> 00:53:13,280
able to find stuff on.
I'm not going to put it all out

869
00:53:13,280 --> 00:53:16,880
there now, but once we get to
the the second-half of this

870
00:53:16,880 --> 00:53:19,680
presentation, when we start
getting into the possibilities,

871
00:53:21,040 --> 00:53:23,280
you'll see.
I did a lot of fucking research,

872
00:53:23,320 --> 00:53:24,840
man.
A lot of fucking research.

873
00:53:25,200 --> 00:53:31,120
And you can basically check off
every single theory as not

874
00:53:31,120 --> 00:53:34,280
fitting perfectly.
It's it's crazy.

875
00:53:34,560 --> 00:53:38,840
It's absolutely nuts.
So you guys ready to move on?

876
00:53:38,840 --> 00:53:40,320
We got two more sections for
tonight.

877
00:53:40,680 --> 00:53:42,560
We're going to go a little over
halfway.

878
00:53:43,160 --> 00:53:46,800
That leaves us with a lot more
talking time at the end of next

879
00:53:46,800 --> 00:53:48,600
week's episode.
Sound good?

880
00:53:49,240 --> 00:53:52,000
Sounds good.
All right, interviews.

881
00:53:52,680 --> 00:53:57,040
Igor Diatlov's youngest sister
Tatiana sat down with author

882
00:53:57,040 --> 00:54:01,320
Donnie Iker while he was in You
can Terenburg, following

883
00:54:01,320 --> 00:54:07,200
information and the path that
the D Outlaw group hiked in 2010

884
00:54:07,480 --> 00:54:11,240
and added a few very interesting
details to the story.

885
00:54:11,800 --> 00:54:14,840
She mentions that when she
attended her brother's funeral

886
00:54:14,840 --> 00:54:18,720
as a young woman, she was
shocked at 2 specific details of

887
00:54:18,800 --> 00:54:22,920
Igor's body.
His skin was very dark and aged

888
00:54:23,240 --> 00:54:28,040
and his hair was white.
Igor was only 23 years old at

889
00:54:28,040 --> 00:54:31,800
the time of his death and his
hair looked as if he were an

890
00:54:31,800 --> 00:54:36,600
elderly man.
In 2012, Iker once again flew to

891
00:54:36,600 --> 00:54:40,360
Russia to continue his research
into the Diatlav incident.

892
00:54:40,920 --> 00:54:44,520
This time the man who he was
staying with, which happened to

893
00:54:44,520 --> 00:54:50,200
be Yuri Kutsenovich, head of the
Yucatan Berg based Diatlav

894
00:54:50,200 --> 00:54:55,480
Foundation, had another guest,
Yuri Yudin, the one survivor of

895
00:54:55,480 --> 00:54:57,960
the group who left early due to
health issues.

896
00:54:59,280 --> 00:55:02,280
When asked by Iker what he
believed happened to his

897
00:55:02,280 --> 00:55:06,120
friends, you didn't replied
first with what he thought did

898
00:55:06,120 --> 00:55:07,720
not happen to them.
Quote.

899
00:55:08,160 --> 00:55:12,000
Much has been made of the hikers
relationships with the opposite

900
00:55:12,000 --> 00:55:16,920
sex that somehow arguments with
the girls led to their deaths.

901
00:55:17,320 --> 00:55:22,440
This he said is bullshit.
You didn't goes on to explain

902
00:55:22,440 --> 00:55:26,440
that it was his opinion that
they were killed by someone he

903
00:55:26,440 --> 00:55:29,520
didn't know if it was because
they saw something they weren't

904
00:55:29,520 --> 00:55:33,720
supposed to or if they were just
the target of a bad person or

905
00:55:33,720 --> 00:55:36,440
people.
His strongest piece of evidence

906
00:55:36,440 --> 00:55:40,960
was Luda's missing tongue.
Uden explains that the official

907
00:55:40,960 --> 00:55:44,240
statement regarding her missing
tongue and Georgie's eyes and

908
00:55:44,240 --> 00:55:48,080
mouth missing pieces was that
they were gnawed at by small

909
00:55:48,080 --> 00:55:52,640
animals like mice and birds.
But if that was the case, then

910
00:55:52,640 --> 00:55:54,600
why did it not happen to
everyone?

911
00:55:55,520 --> 00:55:59,000
Ludo was a very strong and
outspoken woman who would not

912
00:55:59,000 --> 00:56:00,960
have stood down in the face of
danger.

913
00:56:01,400 --> 00:56:04,200
This you didn't, This you
didn't.

914
00:56:04,200 --> 00:56:07,560
Believes may have gotten her
tongue cut out by someone who

915
00:56:07,560 --> 00:56:11,280
was trying to silence her.
It is his belief that they were

916
00:56:11,280 --> 00:56:15,120
surprised to be approached by a
person or a group of people and

917
00:56:15,120 --> 00:56:18,000
forced down the hill and shot
and left for dead.

918
00:56:18,960 --> 00:56:21,720
He points to other pieces of
evidence, such as the missing

919
00:56:21,720 --> 00:56:25,120
chocolate that the group had
brought with them and a stuffed

920
00:56:25,120 --> 00:56:29,200
toy hedgehog that Luda had
always brought with her on every

921
00:56:29,200 --> 00:56:32,840
expedition, as additional proof
for his theory.

922
00:56:33,120 --> 00:56:36,400
He believed that it was possible
that the killers may have stolen

923
00:56:36,400 --> 00:56:38,760
a few things from the tent
before leaving the area.

924
00:56:39,280 --> 00:56:42,560
Eicher mentions in his book just
after his second interview with

925
00:56:42,560 --> 00:56:45,640
Uden, that he was a bit
disappointed in Uden's theory.

926
00:56:46,240 --> 00:56:49,520
Luda's stuffed animal had been
found in the tent that day when

927
00:56:49,520 --> 00:56:52,720
the searchers approached, and
there was no evidence that her

928
00:56:52,720 --> 00:56:56,560
tongue was cut out either.
The tear was not a clean cut.

929
00:56:57,080 --> 00:57:00,640
Udin's theory aligned perfectly
with what he believed to be the

930
00:57:00,640 --> 00:57:03,880
narrative pushed by the
authorities and many other

931
00:57:03,880 --> 00:57:07,360
conspiracies that have arisen in
the wake of this incident.

932
00:57:08,280 --> 00:57:10,880
After the first five bodies were
found and families were

933
00:57:10,880 --> 00:57:14,800
notified, it became a nightmare
for them to gain possession of

934
00:57:14,800 --> 00:57:18,040
their loved ones in order to
give them a proper funeral.

935
00:57:18,960 --> 00:57:22,040
Originally, they were told that
they could not bury their

936
00:57:22,040 --> 00:57:27,240
remains in their home towns,
instead they were to have small

937
00:57:27,240 --> 00:57:31,800
funerals there.
In Yidal, Uden explained that

938
00:57:31,800 --> 00:57:36,360
his that this threw up red flags
for the families of the

939
00:57:36,360 --> 00:57:39,520
deceased.
They didn't understand why this

940
00:57:39,520 --> 00:57:42,960
would be such a problem to have
their children or siblings sent

941
00:57:43,120 --> 00:57:49,240
back to their homes for burial.
After a few days of back-to-back

942
00:57:49,240 --> 00:57:52,200
arguments, the authorities
finally conceded to having their

943
00:57:52,200 --> 00:57:58,480
funeral in Svermosk where the
university was where they all be

944
00:57:58,600 --> 00:58:01,280
and was where they all began
their journey.

945
00:58:02,120 --> 00:58:04,800
But the stipulation is that they
would be given only two

946
00:58:04,800 --> 00:58:08,120
services, not one big one or
separate smaller ones.

947
00:58:08,680 --> 00:58:12,720
Rather they would only have two.
And the reason for this that was

948
00:58:12,720 --> 00:58:15,680
given to the families was so
that they could keep the

949
00:58:15,680 --> 00:58:19,240
services small and not have
large turnouts.

950
00:58:19,560 --> 00:58:23,480
You didn't explain that the
intention of the authorities was

951
00:58:23,480 --> 00:58:26,720
to quote to pretend that nothing
happened.

952
00:58:26,800 --> 00:58:31,680
Yuri Koncevich was the host of
author Donnie Iker during his

953
00:58:31,960 --> 00:58:35,360
own journey to Russia and the
site of the Diatlo Past

954
00:58:35,360 --> 00:58:39,080
incident, and he was 12 when the
funeral for the first four

955
00:58:39,080 --> 00:58:41,640
students took place just outside
of his living room window.

956
00:58:42,240 --> 00:58:46,040
He explains that he had seen
multiple Soviet police and men

957
00:58:46,040 --> 00:58:50,200
who would later be thought of as
undercover KGB.

958
00:58:50,480 --> 00:58:53,600
They're watching the people
attending the funeral instead of

959
00:58:53,600 --> 00:58:56,680
watching the proceedings.
He also explained that he

960
00:58:56,680 --> 00:59:00,360
believed there'd be thousands of
people there, even though the

961
00:59:00,360 --> 00:59:05,240
wishes of the authorities were
to keep the services small all

962
00:59:05,240 --> 00:59:08,080
right.
My mom says that maybe they

963
00:59:08,080 --> 00:59:10,400
turned on each other or one was
a plant.

964
00:59:10,400 --> 00:59:15,360
That is also a a common theory.
There's a There's so, so many

965
00:59:15,360 --> 00:59:17,560
forget.
That so I wouldn't put it past.

966
00:59:17,720 --> 00:59:21,120
Obviously we're talking Russia
and we're talking 59, right.

967
00:59:21,120 --> 00:59:27,280
So anything's possible as far as
like would the government do or

968
00:59:27,280 --> 00:59:30,320
test something on these people?
Yes, yes, absolutely.

969
00:59:30,320 --> 00:59:33,280
Especially the Russian
government in 1959, right, Let's

970
00:59:33,280 --> 00:59:35,120
be real.
Yeah, like if they got some kind

971
00:59:35,120 --> 00:59:37,480
of whatever they're doing, I
don't know because obviously

972
00:59:37,480 --> 00:59:39,640
they didn't set a new so there,
you know, but.

973
00:59:40,080 --> 00:59:44,560
So something that that might go
along with what you're about to

974
00:59:44,560 --> 00:59:47,600
say might get your, your, your
brain ticking a little bit more.

975
00:59:48,280 --> 00:59:52,520
This was also very close to the
time when Germany and Russia

976
00:59:52,520 --> 00:59:56,440
were having their big conflict
right before the Cold War.

977
00:59:57,680 --> 01:00:02,760
And if you look at the the map
of Russia, the Ural Mountains

978
01:00:02,920 --> 01:00:05,680
are not in like where Saint
Petersburg is, right?

979
01:00:05,680 --> 01:00:10,040
It's not in like the the area of
Russia where most of the

980
01:00:10,040 --> 01:00:12,920
population lives is very, very,
very rural.

981
01:00:13,320 --> 01:00:15,200
And it's fairly close to
Germany.

982
01:00:15,840 --> 01:00:22,040
So it is actually documented
that most of the artillery and

983
01:00:22,040 --> 01:00:26,040
weaponry that they used during
conflicts such as World War 2.

984
01:00:26,680 --> 01:00:29,160
The conflict with Germany and
Cold War.

985
01:00:30,560 --> 01:00:32,520
A lot of their stuff was moved
to the Ural Mountains.

986
01:00:33,880 --> 01:00:42,320
Yeah, see, that's, that's one
thing #2 is there is I just kind

987
01:00:42,320 --> 01:00:45,560
of looked up.
I googled the Outlook pass and

988
01:00:45,680 --> 01:00:48,240
through the images I found
there's actually a lot of these

989
01:00:48,240 --> 01:00:50,560
different charts.
Looks like they've done a whole

990
01:00:50,560 --> 01:00:52,840
bunch of like, let's call it
signs.

991
01:00:52,840 --> 01:00:58,320
Right on, on how this avalanche
could have happened, right.

992
01:00:59,280 --> 01:01:04,400
So it's not out of the question
because when you said earlier

993
01:01:04,400 --> 01:01:06,080
like, hey, it's like probably
not the case.

994
01:01:06,080 --> 01:01:07,840
And I was looking at the Google
Earth pictures, I was like,

995
01:01:07,840 --> 01:01:10,800
yeah, probably not.
But you don't get a perspective

996
01:01:10,800 --> 01:01:13,000
of what the angles are.
But when you look at this, you

997
01:01:13,000 --> 01:01:16,680
kind of see, OK, there are spots
where there is some steep.

998
01:01:17,560 --> 01:01:22,720
Terrain, but that's but it's not
enough what I'm like that sure

999
01:01:22,720 --> 01:01:25,720
the slope like that's only right
where the tent is.

1000
01:01:26,280 --> 01:01:28,960
What was that thing called
earlier that you told me?

1001
01:01:29,640 --> 01:01:33,400
It was a certain type of
avalanche, Slab avalanche.

1002
01:01:34,040 --> 01:01:38,680
Where the top gives out.
Yeah, just like this chunk here.

1003
01:01:39,200 --> 01:01:42,240
Right where where the blue stuff
is all the the hardened ice and

1004
01:01:42,240 --> 01:01:44,920
everything, right, Yeah.
But I mean, is that going to

1005
01:01:44,920 --> 01:01:48,320
cause them to go a mile away or
even 1000 yards away?

1006
01:01:48,480 --> 01:01:50,400
I.
Don't know but it with with

1007
01:01:50,400 --> 01:01:53,680
severe injuries it might cause
them to try to hike out to get

1008
01:01:53,680 --> 01:01:56,960
help right?
Yeah, yeah, true.

1009
01:01:57,280 --> 01:01:59,120
Could.
Could, but it doesn't.

1010
01:01:59,360 --> 01:02:04,520
It does not explain the
radiation and not the tongue

1011
01:02:04,520 --> 01:02:07,920
being missing.
Could still happen from the slab

1012
01:02:08,040 --> 01:02:10,320
avalanche right?
You bite your own tongue off so.

1013
01:02:10,640 --> 01:02:13,600
But even even if it was an
avalanche, man, that tent's not

1014
01:02:13,600 --> 01:02:15,640
there.
I mean if it.

1015
01:02:15,640 --> 01:02:19,000
Was a slab slab avalanche that
if it wasn't melt, could have

1016
01:02:19,000 --> 01:02:21,200
melted.
I mean, it could have melted,

1017
01:02:21,200 --> 01:02:23,360
but there would have been more
damage to the tent.

1018
01:02:23,720 --> 01:02:26,320
You know that that stuff's hard.
That stuff.

1019
01:02:26,480 --> 01:02:31,040
You know, they, they said the
only real damage to it was cuts

1020
01:02:31,040 --> 01:02:32,760
made from the inside of the
tent.

1021
01:02:33,360 --> 01:02:37,640
And if that thing's hit with,
with hard ice man, I don't know.

1022
01:02:37,640 --> 01:02:39,840
Sure.
Well, maybe, but like if these

1023
01:02:39,840 --> 01:02:44,800
pictures here are legit.
That's right.

1024
01:02:44,800 --> 01:02:46,360
That is That is legit.
Yep.

1025
01:02:46,920 --> 01:02:53,120
If this is legit, I mean that
that's a pretty fucked up tent

1026
01:02:53,120 --> 01:03:00,080
man.
But you that if it was I'm I'm

1027
01:03:00,080 --> 01:03:02,080
just saying, man, look, look at
the hill.

1028
01:03:02,280 --> 01:03:07,360
Look at the hill.
OK, it's I, I well.

1029
01:03:07,360 --> 01:03:09,440
We don't.
We're not looking behind like

1030
01:03:09,440 --> 01:03:11,440
this camera is not looking.
It's only looking in One

1031
01:03:11,440 --> 01:03:13,000
Direction, right?
We don't see.

1032
01:03:13,600 --> 01:03:17,240
I, I'm trying, not this, I'm
trying not to skip forward here,

1033
01:03:19,120 --> 01:03:22,680
but I mean, there, there's so
many, so many pictures like you

1034
01:03:22,680 --> 01:03:27,200
can look up, like you like you
have, you can see 360 views of

1035
01:03:27,200 --> 01:03:28,960
the spot.
You can see everything.

1036
01:03:28,960 --> 01:03:32,480
I mean, there's been so many.
On Google Earth, yeah, that's

1037
01:03:32,520 --> 01:03:34,920
how it's.
There's there's so many things

1038
01:03:35,320 --> 01:03:38,320
that were done, so many
experiments, so many trials run

1039
01:03:38,320 --> 01:03:42,080
here, so many different
universities that try to put,

1040
01:03:42,200 --> 01:03:45,840
you know, put their own thoughts
and ideas out there, But other

1041
01:03:45,840 --> 01:03:48,360
universities will come out and
say, no, actually it can't

1042
01:03:48,360 --> 01:03:50,640
happen and This is why.
And then I'll prove it with

1043
01:03:50,640 --> 01:03:54,960
mathematics or, or a real life
example.

1044
01:03:55,280 --> 01:04:01,880
Lot of lot of them are static,
but still it's it's nuts, man.

1045
01:04:01,880 --> 01:04:05,840
And honestly, when we get
further into it, I think you're

1046
01:04:05,840 --> 01:04:08,760
going to look at an avalanche as
one of the least likely

1047
01:04:08,920 --> 01:04:10,240
possibilities.
Peter says.

1048
01:04:10,240 --> 01:04:13,120
Plus, why didn't the tent move
from the avalanche?

1049
01:04:13,840 --> 01:04:16,960
Yeah, I mean.
Well, maybe it wasn't huge.

1050
01:04:16,960 --> 01:04:18,760
I mean, you know, ice is heavy,
right?

1051
01:04:18,760 --> 01:04:21,080
And if just a big enough piece,
and I mean think about it, if

1052
01:04:21,080 --> 01:04:23,240
they're all crammed in this tent
like sardines, right?

1053
01:04:23,800 --> 01:04:28,000
And I don't know, just a chunk
that's a couple ��100.

1054
01:04:28,000 --> 01:04:30,080
I mean, I'm not even talking
about like a fucking avalanche,

1055
01:04:30,080 --> 01:04:34,520
I'm talking about just a chunk
slides down and bam, right

1056
01:04:34,520 --> 01:04:37,280
through the tent and just
crushes this guy's ribs, fucks

1057
01:04:37,280 --> 01:04:40,720
this guy's head up, right?
This lady bites her own tongue

1058
01:04:40,720 --> 01:04:42,320
off, right?
It's a whole thing and that.

1059
01:04:43,240 --> 01:04:46,800
But but then you have people,
two other people, they're trying

1060
01:04:46,800 --> 01:04:49,280
to start a fire.
One person that's climbing a

1061
01:04:49,280 --> 01:04:53,200
tree, they don't have any
clothes on.

1062
01:04:54,160 --> 01:04:58,120
They're I don't know man, you're
right.

1063
01:04:58,680 --> 01:05:00,000
It just.
You're right.

1064
01:05:00,000 --> 01:05:02,760
I was just targeting, yeah.
How dare you?

1065
01:05:02,920 --> 01:05:05,200
How dare you speculate, Jeff?
All I'm saying you're So what?

1066
01:05:05,200 --> 01:05:07,600
An asshole.
You're fucking out, Jeff the.

1067
01:05:07,880 --> 01:05:11,240
Initial, the initial debunking
of the avalanche saying hey

1068
01:05:11,240 --> 01:05:13,520
look, it couldn't have happened
because of the slope, not

1069
01:05:13,520 --> 01:05:16,040
necessarily.
True, it couldn't do the damage.

1070
01:05:16,080 --> 01:05:17,600
It couldn't do it.
Couldn't do all the.

1071
01:05:17,600 --> 01:05:23,200
Things I can't the outcome of
the situation, the outcome of

1072
01:05:23,200 --> 01:05:27,920
the event could not have
happened by an avalanche, or at

1073
01:05:27,920 --> 01:05:33,200
least only an avalanche. 14 the
wind says or is it?

1074
01:05:33,880 --> 01:05:37,360
Yeah. 14 the wind says
government testing was inhumane

1075
01:05:37,440 --> 01:05:40,080
and prevalent.
It wouldn't be surprising for

1076
01:05:40,080 --> 01:05:41,920
them to cover up evidence and.
And Russia.

1077
01:05:42,120 --> 01:05:45,680
And in Russia, Yeah, yeah,
we'll, we'll get into that too.

1078
01:05:45,680 --> 01:05:48,280
I don't even know if they had
paperwork that had anything to

1079
01:05:48,440 --> 01:05:50,320
do with, you know what I mean?
Back there, over there.

1080
01:05:50,960 --> 01:05:52,400
Yeah, oh, the, I mean, they're
they.

1081
01:05:52,920 --> 01:05:57,480
Didn't give a shit.
Yeah, I, I, I, I think there

1082
01:05:57,480 --> 01:06:00,440
definitely could have been some,
some weird shit going on with

1083
01:06:00,440 --> 01:06:01,640
the government.
I do.

1084
01:06:01,640 --> 01:06:03,240
You guys ready?
Yep, ready.

1085
01:06:03,680 --> 01:06:04,960
All right.
Last section of the night we're

1086
01:06:04,960 --> 01:06:06,160
going to talk about the
expedition.

1087
01:06:06,160 --> 01:06:10,440
The D Outlet Group left the Euro
Polytechnic Institute on January

1088
01:06:10,440 --> 01:06:16,960
23rd, 1959 and arrived in Vizhe
on the 25th after two days of

1089
01:06:16,960 --> 01:06:20,720
traveling by train and bus.
The entire trip to Visay,

1090
01:06:21,160 --> 01:06:25,440
Diatlov and his group were
accompanied by Yuri Blinov, who

1091
01:06:25,440 --> 01:06:27,840
would eventually become a
devoted member of the search

1092
01:06:27,840 --> 01:06:31,760
party and his crew.
The afternoon of the 25th would

1093
01:06:31,760 --> 01:06:35,320
be the last time either group
saw each other and from here

1094
01:06:35,720 --> 01:06:37,920
they began to go their separate
ways.

1095
01:06:38,400 --> 01:06:41,960
The truck leaving towards their
ultimate destination of Sector

1096
01:06:41,960 --> 01:06:46,760
41 would be leaving the next
afternoon, so the group took the

1097
01:06:46,760 --> 01:06:51,120
time they had been given to find
a place to sleep, eat and then

1098
01:06:51,120 --> 01:06:54,560
talk with the local forester for
information about their path to

1099
01:06:54,560 --> 01:07:00,080
Otorin Mountain.
Yvonne Rempel, Vizhay's local

1100
01:07:00,080 --> 01:07:02,800
forester, warned the group of
such a trip in the dead of

1101
01:07:02,800 --> 01:07:05,560
winter.
Quote I expressed my opinion

1102
01:07:05,800 --> 01:07:09,640
that it is dangerous to go over
the Ural Ridge in winter as

1103
01:07:09,640 --> 01:07:14,280
there are large ravines and pits
where one can sink and winds are

1104
01:07:14,280 --> 01:07:16,520
so strong that people can be
blown away.

1105
01:07:17,120 --> 01:07:20,760
This of course did nothing to
change the minds of Igor Diatlav

1106
01:07:20,760 --> 01:07:24,880
and his crew, so they pushed on
and boarded the truck to Sector

1107
01:07:24,880 --> 01:07:28,160
41.
During the three hour ride in

1108
01:07:28,160 --> 01:07:32,400
the bed of the uncovered truck
in February, Yuri Yudin's

1109
01:07:32,560 --> 01:07:36,640
rheumatism began to get
unbearable and the decision to

1110
01:07:36,640 --> 01:07:39,840
split with the group was fast
approaching.

1111
01:07:40,360 --> 01:07:44,440
When the team arrived in Sector
41, it was made perfectly clear

1112
01:07:44,440 --> 01:07:48,920
that the men who were referred
to in Eikers book Dead Mountain

1113
01:07:48,920 --> 01:07:53,200
as woodcutters.
With some research, I found that

1114
01:07:53,200 --> 01:07:57,080
woodcutters were collectors and
organizers of the frigid area's

1115
01:07:57,080 --> 01:08:02,560
fuel, such as wood.
Unlike lumberjacks who cut trees

1116
01:08:02,560 --> 01:08:05,520
down, it would seem that
woodcutters mostly gathered

1117
01:08:05,520 --> 01:08:09,200
fallen trees or branches from
the ground and stored them for

1118
01:08:09,200 --> 01:08:12,520
use later.
These woodcutters were entirely

1119
01:08:12,520 --> 01:08:16,439
made-up of men and would spend
multiple months away from their

1120
01:08:16,439 --> 01:08:20,200
families to be in or around
Sector 41, which was nothing

1121
01:08:20,200 --> 01:08:24,160
more than log buildings without
the company of any females.

1122
01:08:24,720 --> 01:08:28,000
So when the group arrived with
two women, they instantly became

1123
01:08:28,000 --> 01:08:31,000
very popular.
This did not become a problem

1124
01:08:31,000 --> 01:08:34,200
while they were staying
overnight at Sector 41, and the

1125
01:08:34,200 --> 01:08:37,160
next day they were ready to
begin the journey to their next

1126
01:08:37,160 --> 01:08:41,920
destination and unnamed and
abandoned geologic settlement.

1127
01:08:42,880 --> 01:08:46,600
Their mode of transportation was
to ski behind a man who was

1128
01:08:46,600 --> 01:08:50,560
enlisted to drag their bags on a
sled while riding horseback.

1129
01:08:50,920 --> 01:08:55,000
This man was Lithuanian who
would later be found to have

1130
01:08:55,000 --> 01:08:59,120
been a former convict who had
spent six years in a prison in

1131
01:08:59,120 --> 01:09:02,560
Sector 2.
What it was that he did to be

1132
01:09:02,720 --> 01:09:06,200
imprisoned is unclear even to
this day, but the group seemed

1133
01:09:06,200 --> 01:09:10,120
to like him as they eventually
branded him with the nickname of

1134
01:09:10,120 --> 01:09:14,200
Grandpa Slava.
The group and Grandpa Slava made

1135
01:09:14,200 --> 01:09:17,720
the 15 mile trek to the
abandoned settlement just fine

1136
01:09:17,760 --> 01:09:21,399
under the cover of moonlight and
found a suitable cabin to spend

1137
01:09:21,399 --> 01:09:24,080
the night.
The next morning You're a Unit's

1138
01:09:24,080 --> 01:09:27,680
pain would be too much for him
to continue, especially since

1139
01:09:27,680 --> 01:09:32,439
this was the last time he had a
way back to civilization before

1140
01:09:32,439 --> 01:09:35,200
the team headed out into the
frozen wilderness.

1141
01:09:35,800 --> 01:09:39,880
So you didn't hitch a ride back
to Sector 41 with Grandpa Slava

1142
01:09:40,120 --> 01:09:43,279
with the comfort of being able
to see his friends again in 10

1143
01:09:43,279 --> 01:09:45,319
days when they were due to
return.

1144
01:09:46,200 --> 01:09:48,560
But unfortunately that wasn't
the case.

1145
01:09:49,120 --> 01:09:51,640
From this point on, the
expedition would be done without

1146
01:09:51,640 --> 01:09:55,240
any living person able to tell
of their path and events.

1147
01:09:55,480 --> 01:09:59,360
The only thing for anyone to go
off of was the diary that was

1148
01:09:59,360 --> 01:10:05,240
kept by Zineda Kolmogorova and
the pictures and their cameras.

1149
01:10:05,680 --> 01:10:09,360
But we do know their intended
path that they wanted to take to

1150
01:10:09,360 --> 01:10:13,720
the base of Otornton Mountain.
They were to leave the abandoned

1151
01:10:13,720 --> 01:10:18,040
settlement and head directly to
the Lozva River, where they

1152
01:10:18,040 --> 01:10:20,760
would follow the water until
they came to the point that the

1153
01:10:20,760 --> 01:10:25,240
Lozva joined the Aspuya River,
where they would then follow the

1154
01:10:25,240 --> 01:10:29,320
shores of the Aspuya until they
reached the base of the

1155
01:10:29,320 --> 01:10:32,680
Otornton, which the Aspuya
passed directly by.

1156
01:10:33,400 --> 01:10:39,080
In the diary there lay mention
of the -13�� temperatures during

1157
01:10:39,080 --> 01:10:42,920
the day, the pathway that they
were following being made by

1158
01:10:42,920 --> 01:10:47,360
Monsey, as well as painted trees
which stood as info from the

1159
01:10:47,360 --> 01:10:50,360
Monsey.
There was also mention of a

1160
01:10:50,360 --> 01:10:54,800
disagreement between Luda and
Kolya over who should stitch

1161
01:10:54,800 --> 01:10:58,680
holes in the tent.
Author Donnie Iker mentions that

1162
01:10:58,680 --> 01:11:01,440
the group would typically make
their diary entries in the

1163
01:11:01,440 --> 01:11:04,320
morning hours before they
started hiking for the day.

1164
01:11:04,880 --> 01:11:08,880
Igor's diary entry on the
morning of January 31st stated

1165
01:11:08,880 --> 01:11:12,640
concern about the increased wind
speed and the amount of snow

1166
01:11:12,840 --> 01:11:14,880
that was blowing off of the
treetops.

1167
01:11:15,200 --> 01:11:18,920
But the last entries were made
on the night of January 31st,

1168
01:11:19,160 --> 01:11:22,600
which would have have them
making their final camp on the

1169
01:11:22,600 --> 01:11:26,440
eastern slope of what we now
know as Diatlo's pass on

1170
01:11:26,440 --> 01:11:30,200
February 1st and the incident
taking place on the same night

1171
01:11:30,200 --> 01:11:32,760
or in the early hours of
February 2nd.

1172
01:11:33,560 --> 01:11:38,160
Igor Diatlo's final diary entry
on January 31st Read Quote.

1173
01:11:38,480 --> 01:11:42,440
It's hard to imagine such a cozy
place anywhere at the Ridge,

1174
01:11:42,960 --> 01:11:47,120
under the Pierce, under the
piercing howls of the wind, and

1175
01:11:47,120 --> 01:11:49,760
hundreds of kilometers from any
settlements.

1176
01:11:50,520 --> 01:11:53,840
From this final entry, the only
thing left were two pictures

1177
01:11:53,840 --> 01:11:57,880
from that day of February 1st,
which depicted the group slowly

1178
01:11:58,040 --> 01:12:02,520
skiing along single file through
blinding snow.

1179
01:12:02,520 --> 01:12:06,240
The team would never reach a
Torton mountain and would never

1180
01:12:06,400 --> 01:12:10,120
see the sunrise on February 2nd
of 1959.

1181
01:12:10,120 --> 01:12:15,080
Now, I do want to share the
screen real quick here because

1182
01:12:15,080 --> 01:12:18,800
this picture right here, where
is it right here.

1183
01:12:19,920 --> 01:12:24,480
This picture right here is one
of the final two pictures ever

1184
01:12:24,480 --> 01:12:30,720
taken by by the group.
The very last picture we will

1185
01:12:30,720 --> 01:12:36,880
talk about on the next episode
and is thought to be a major

1186
01:12:36,880 --> 01:12:39,640
clue in what could have
potentially happened, or at

1187
01:12:39,640 --> 01:12:42,840
least a major crew in what, a
clue in one of the theories.

1188
01:12:45,080 --> 01:12:49,000
But yeah.
I know dude.

1189
01:12:49,960 --> 01:12:52,160
Yeah.
Yeah, I don't know either, man.

1190
01:12:52,480 --> 01:12:55,840
I could sit here and ramble for
45 minutes about 1000 different

1191
01:12:55,840 --> 01:12:58,600
theories because you're just
going to tell me that oh wait,

1192
01:12:58,720 --> 01:13:01,640
there's something else that you
don't know yet.

1193
01:13:02,120 --> 01:13:05,160
So.
Yeah, aliens.

1194
01:13:06,360 --> 01:13:11,520
That's a theory.
Yeah, I know the theories.

1195
01:13:11,720 --> 01:13:13,440
It's a theory, and it's actually
one.

1196
01:13:13,440 --> 01:13:15,640
It's the theory that's tied to
the last picture.

1197
01:13:15,640 --> 01:13:17,640
You're not going to show us the
last picture yet, are you?

1198
01:13:18,040 --> 01:13:20,080
You want me to try?
I could try to find it.

1199
01:13:20,360 --> 01:13:21,720
Yeah, find it if.
I can't find it.

1200
01:13:21,720 --> 01:13:23,120
I can definitely find it in the
book.

1201
01:13:23,240 --> 01:13:25,520
I know it's in here and I'll
just show the camera.

1202
01:13:25,960 --> 01:13:31,440
Radioactive Demon.
By the way, if anybody wants to

1203
01:13:31,440 --> 01:13:36,560
read a really good book on this,
I've read four books on this and

1204
01:13:36,560 --> 01:13:39,800
this one right here, Dead
Mountain by Donnie Eicher is a

1205
01:13:39,800 --> 01:13:47,800
phenomenal book.
What if, what if the most by

1206
01:13:47,800 --> 01:13:50,080
like, just the shittiest
chances, right?

1207
01:13:50,200 --> 01:13:53,720
The shittiest, most astronomical
chances you could possibly

1208
01:13:53,720 --> 01:13:56,280
imagine?
This crew of people got hit by a

1209
01:13:56,280 --> 01:13:57,760
meteorite.
It is also a theory.

1210
01:13:57,760 --> 01:14:01,840
I don't think it's a theory that
I really dive into, but I have

1211
01:14:01,840 --> 01:14:07,280
read that as possible.
Or like what if a chunk just big

1212
01:14:07,280 --> 01:14:10,120
enough got through the
atmosphere, maybe even an air

1213
01:14:10,120 --> 01:14:14,520
bursted, I don't know, but it
got close enough to where the

1214
01:14:14,520 --> 01:14:18,840
actual either impact will, I
don't know, just you know, it,

1215
01:14:18,840 --> 01:14:22,880
it fucked them up.
Air burst or impact just enough

1216
01:14:22,880 --> 01:14:26,640
to break some ribs and make them
all fucking.

1217
01:14:26,680 --> 01:14:28,080
I mean it wouldn't be that
crazy.

1218
01:14:28,080 --> 01:14:31,680
They did have that massive
meteorite that came in captured

1219
01:14:31,680 --> 01:14:35,320
by tons of dash cams and blew
through like a building or

1220
01:14:35,320 --> 01:14:37,000
something like that a few years
back.

1221
01:14:37,000 --> 01:14:39,520
What month?
What month was their expedition?

1222
01:14:41,520 --> 01:14:43,520
January.
End of January.

1223
01:14:43,720 --> 01:14:46,200
Beginning of February.
Is that during like the torrid

1224
01:14:46,200 --> 01:14:48,520
meteor shower?
Well, probably not.

1225
01:14:49,600 --> 01:14:51,280
All right.
I don't think it is here.

1226
01:14:51,520 --> 01:14:55,440
Here, here is the the final
picture and I mean it's not

1227
01:14:55,440 --> 01:14:57,240
going to look like much to you
guys, but.

1228
01:14:57,240 --> 01:14:59,960
That's what she said.
Prayer.

1229
01:15:00,560 --> 01:15:02,760
December 13th is a torrid meteor
shower.

1230
01:15:04,000 --> 01:15:10,600
December 13th, that's the so.
So we're passing through that

1231
01:15:10,600 --> 01:15:13,840
whole field of debris during
that time.

1232
01:15:13,840 --> 01:15:17,640
So it could have been aliens.
Could have been a piece of space

1233
01:15:17,640 --> 01:15:19,880
debris.
What's what's what's this stuff

1234
01:15:19,880 --> 01:15:21,600
right here?
Are these pictures next to?

1235
01:15:21,600 --> 01:15:23,680
Is that a Bigfoot?
That a Yeti.

1236
01:15:26,560 --> 01:15:29,360
Yeah, I don't, I don't really
know too much about that.

1237
01:15:29,360 --> 01:15:36,360
It it pops up, but it's supposed
to be a Monzi, like a one of the

1238
01:15:36,360 --> 01:15:38,120
tribe members of the Monty
tribe.

1239
01:15:39,440 --> 01:15:42,960
A lot of people will try to spin
that photograph to be a Yeti and

1240
01:15:42,960 --> 01:15:47,480
whatnot, but if.
Right click it and go to open

1241
01:15:47,480 --> 01:15:52,200
image and new tab.
That way you don't have to click

1242
01:15:52,200 --> 01:15:56,920
on the link.
Well, that's it.

1243
01:15:56,920 --> 01:15:58,840
Comes out too small.
Hold on, let me try this one.

1244
01:16:01,560 --> 01:16:03,120
Yeah, they're coming out too
small for me, homie.

1245
01:16:03,320 --> 01:16:05,920
Well, just click it so it goes
into the thumbnail portion where

1246
01:16:05,920 --> 01:16:08,120
this other one is.
There you go, there you go.

1247
01:16:08,720 --> 01:16:15,680
But you see even it just it's
not big, whatever it is, it's

1248
01:16:15,680 --> 01:16:19,480
just not big.
Could be small.

1249
01:16:19,880 --> 01:16:22,240
Big right?
I mean.

1250
01:16:22,280 --> 01:16:25,560
It could, maybe the Yeti in that
region is small because it's

1251
01:16:25,560 --> 01:16:27,920
fucking Russia and it's cold as
shit.

1252
01:16:28,000 --> 01:16:31,080
The only thing I mean, like I
said, man, I read four books on

1253
01:16:31,080 --> 01:16:33,960
this, this fucking thing.
And the only thing that I could

1254
01:16:33,960 --> 01:16:37,160
find about that picture, they
mentioned it in three of the

1255
01:16:37,160 --> 01:16:40,880
four books was that it was a
Monti tribes member.

1256
01:16:40,960 --> 01:16:44,520
And that in one of the books is
specifically calls out how,

1257
01:16:46,360 --> 01:16:52,320
what, what do you use?
Amateur, amateur investigators

1258
01:16:52,320 --> 01:16:56,440
will try to spin it to be a
Yeti, but if you look at it

1259
01:16:56,440 --> 01:16:59,200
compared to the size of the
tree, it's not that big.

1260
01:16:59,560 --> 01:17:04,240
You look at the V where where
Dick is, it's not that big or or

1261
01:17:04,240 --> 01:17:07,480
whatever.
You can clearly see a jacket on

1262
01:17:07,480 --> 01:17:10,480
it is another one.
The Yetis wear jackets.

1263
01:17:10,480 --> 01:17:13,320
They're small.
They do.

1264
01:17:13,760 --> 01:17:16,560
Radiation study growth.
Maybe This is why we can never

1265
01:17:16,560 --> 01:17:17,840
find.
Maybe they're actually just

1266
01:17:17,840 --> 01:17:20,080
sophisticated.
Maybe the Neanderthals never

1267
01:17:20,080 --> 01:17:22,880
actually like got went extinct.
Maybe they just branched off and

1268
01:17:22,880 --> 01:17:24,960
they're they're also running
around with jackets and shit and

1269
01:17:24,960 --> 01:17:27,800
they're just smart, smarter than
us.

1270
01:17:27,800 --> 01:17:31,160
Maybe Harry.
So like, fuck these guys.

1271
01:17:31,640 --> 01:17:35,680
Maybe we'll never know.
Maybe we will know.

1272
01:17:35,800 --> 01:17:37,040
Maybe we.
Maybe we won't.

1273
01:17:37,200 --> 01:17:40,200
Maybe we won't.
Maybe we will, maybe we will,

1274
01:17:41,360 --> 01:17:44,840
maybe we won't.
Maybe they ate some psychedelic

1275
01:17:45,920 --> 01:17:48,520
mold or something on their food.
Maybe it's a theory.

1276
01:17:49,040 --> 01:17:51,960
Everything's in theory
definitely looks like Bigfoot.

1277
01:17:51,960 --> 01:17:55,720
And what's the other half?
Torso Lady in the bathing suit

1278
01:17:55,720 --> 01:17:58,840
in the snow.
OK, so I can answer that.

1279
01:17:58,840 --> 01:18:03,120
Actually, a lot of hikers, at
least back then, used to wear

1280
01:18:03,120 --> 01:18:08,000
bathing suits underneath their
clothing and then on top of

1281
01:18:08,000 --> 01:18:10,400
other layers because it
propelled water.

1282
01:18:11,720 --> 01:18:18,360
So it helped dissipate the the
moisture coming off their skin

1283
01:18:18,720 --> 01:18:22,520
and the moisture from getting
from their outer layer to their

1284
01:18:22,520 --> 01:18:27,120
inner layer.
It wasn't necessarily that they

1285
01:18:27,120 --> 01:18:30,440
were going swimming or anything
like that, it was just a common

1286
01:18:30,440 --> 01:18:36,200
practice to wear some sort of
swim material underneath your

1287
01:18:36,480 --> 01:18:40,120
clothing on top of a a thin
clothing as the base layer.

1288
01:18:40,120 --> 01:18:42,680
Skater says.
I think it will never be solved,

1289
01:18:42,680 --> 01:18:46,080
not until time travel happens.
I don't know, Skater, Even if

1290
01:18:46,080 --> 01:18:48,880
time travel happened, I'm not
going to some place where it's

1291
01:18:48,880 --> 01:18:52,760
-13 in the sunshine to.
See what?

1292
01:18:52,760 --> 01:18:55,640
Happened to 10 hikers.
Maybe that's what killed the

1293
01:18:55,640 --> 01:18:58,120
maybe somebody went back in time
to find out what happened and

1294
01:18:58,120 --> 01:19:00,960
then going back in time, the
radiation killed these people

1295
01:19:00,960 --> 01:19:02,840
and then the whole thing
happened and it's just caught

1296
01:19:02,840 --> 01:19:06,960
it, bro.
Is that your theories, Jeremy?

1297
01:19:07,880 --> 01:19:09,640
Nope.
There it is.

1298
01:19:09,800 --> 01:19:11,120
That's the thing that happened.
That's the.

1299
01:19:11,120 --> 01:19:13,960
One, that's the one everybody.
It was the men in black.

1300
01:19:14,120 --> 01:19:17,240
Yeah, they saw an alien
spacecraft and they came back in

1301
01:19:17,240 --> 01:19:19,560
time and they're like no, no,
no, no it.

1302
01:19:19,920 --> 01:19:22,680
Was the yetis in black?
The yetis in black.

1303
01:19:24,200 --> 01:19:27,240
Love it, love it.
I'm going to add new theories to

1304
01:19:27,240 --> 01:19:30,720
this thing.
One of those those amateur

1305
01:19:31,000 --> 01:19:32,320
investigators that you're
talking.

1306
01:19:32,440 --> 01:19:35,040
About Peter says that's it I
solved it time traveling

1307
01:19:35,040 --> 01:19:40,400
accident see Jeff and I think
the same 14 the wind says Yep

1308
01:19:40,400 --> 01:19:44,000
weirdness.
It was it was Igor Diatlo's like

1309
01:19:44,040 --> 01:19:48,040
great great, great grandson who
came back to say hi to his

1310
01:19:48,040 --> 01:19:50,600
grandfather at his greatest
achievement and killed him.

1311
01:19:52,280 --> 01:19:53,800
Oops.
Easy.

1312
01:19:53,840 --> 01:19:56,920
Shit, easy, Grandfather Paradox
kicked in.

1313
01:19:57,400 --> 01:20:00,080
Yeah, big oof.
All right.

1314
01:20:01,440 --> 01:20:04,120
You guys got anything to put out
before we sound off?

1315
01:20:05,080 --> 01:20:08,600
Yeah, if I could get also on top
of my wrist bits with cheese

1316
01:20:08,600 --> 01:20:11,200
sponsorship, my Dorito cool rant
sponsorship.

1317
01:20:11,200 --> 01:20:14,280
That'd be great.
Oh, I would like a Reese's

1318
01:20:14,280 --> 01:20:16,240
sponsorship.
Oh, that too.

1319
01:20:16,400 --> 01:20:18,680
It's Reese's.
Reese's.

1320
01:20:18,680 --> 01:20:24,360
Reese's.
