00:00:02,900 --> 00:00:04,500
Hello and welcome to the 
program. 

2
00:00:04,500 --> 00:00:09,300
You have a warning, today's 
topic 1959 and it laughs pass 

3
00:00:09,300 --> 00:00:11,200
incident. 
That's correct. 

4
00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:13,700
We're talking about the 1959, 
did it? 

5
00:00:13,700 --> 00:00:16,600
Laughs pass incident. 
If you're not familiar with 

6
00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:19,500
this, you're going to want to 
tune in because this definitely 

7
00:00:19,500 --> 00:00:23,500
qualifies as high strangeness. 
And I found this article on 

8
00:00:23,500 --> 00:00:28,900
Smart news and specifically this
website is Smithsonian Meg.com 

9
00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:33,300
peers to be written by Mel on 
Sully Smithsonian mag.com, 

10
00:00:33,300 --> 00:00:38,200
January, 29th, 2021 and I'll put
a link at the website. 

11
00:00:38,300 --> 00:00:40,800
UFO, warning.com the article 
begins. 

12
00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:45,300
It says in February 1959 
University student, Mikhail, 

13
00:00:45,300 --> 00:00:47,700
sure oven. 
Hoping I'm pronouncing that 

14
00:00:47,700 --> 00:00:51,000
correctly made an unexpected 
discovery on the slopes of the 

15
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:53,700
Ural Mountains. 
Dispatched as a member of a 

16
00:00:53,700 --> 00:00:56,400
search party investigating a 
group of nine experienced 

17
00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:59,500
hikers. 
Disappearance sure oven and his 

18
00:00:59,500 --> 00:01:03,200
fellow Whoa, Rescuers. 
Spotted the corner. 

19
00:01:04,900 --> 00:01:07,200
Of a tent peeking out beneath 
the snow. 

20
00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:12,400
As he told BBC News, lusatian 
2019 inside, they found 

21
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:16,900
supplies, including a flask of 
vodka, a map and a plate of 

22
00:01:16,900 --> 00:01:20,600
silos, white pork fat. 
All seemingly abandoned without 

23
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:24,500
warning, a slash and a side of 
the tent suggested that someone 

24
00:01:24,500 --> 00:01:29,200
had used a knife to carve out an
escape route from within while 

25
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:33,000
Footprints leading away from the
shelter, indicate that some of 

26
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:36,400
the Mountaineers Adventure 
doubt, in Sub-Zero, temperatures

27
00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:42,000
Barefoot or with only a single 
Boot and socks perplexed, the 

28
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:46,400
search party decided to toast to
the missing groups safety with a

29
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:51,600
flask Fallon and their tent. 
This is what people do people. 

30
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:55,700
When they come upon disasters, 
oftentimes don't want to look at

31
00:01:55,700 --> 00:01:58,900
the obvious thing that happened 
but we're always hoping for the 

32
00:01:58,908 --> 00:02:01,900
best outcome. 
Now, the article says quote, we 

33
00:02:01,900 --> 00:02:04,200
shared the Vodka out between us,
there were 11. 

34
00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:07,500
Us including the guides shrivel.
We called, we were about to 

35
00:02:07,500 --> 00:02:09,900
drink at one. 
One guy turned to me and said, 

36
00:02:09,900 --> 00:02:13,700
let's not drink to their health 
but to their Eternal peace over 

37
00:02:13,700 --> 00:02:17,000
the next several months, 
Rescuers recovered, all nine 

38
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:21,400
hikers bodies /, BBC News, two 
of the men were found Barefoot 

39
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:23,600
and clad only in their 
underwear. 

40
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:26,300
While the majority of the group 
appeared to have died of 

41
00:02:26,308 --> 00:02:31,000
hypothermia, at least for has 
sustained horrific and 

42
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:34,200
inexplicable injuries, including
a fractured skull. 

43
00:02:34,300 --> 00:02:37,700
All broken ribs and a gaping 
gash to the Head. 

44
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:44,400
One woman, 20 year old light, 
Amelia do, do being a Nina was 

45
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:47,600
missing, both her eyeballs and 
her tongue. 

46
00:02:47,900 --> 00:02:51,100
The wounds said Doctor Who 
examined the bodies were equal 

47
00:02:51,100 --> 00:02:54,800
to the effect of a car crash. 
According to the documents 

48
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:58,400
later, obtained by st. 
Petersburg's times, that's going

49
00:02:58,400 --> 00:02:59,800
to be important to think about 
this later. 

50
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,400
What looks like it might even 
animal predation or some type of

51
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:07,900
a soul Actually probably from an
impact wound. 

52
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:10,800
Now, if you go to the article, 
you'll see the pictures of these

53
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:15,800
nine poor lost souls that were 
killed in this tragic situation.

54
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:17,900
At did Loft pass. 
The article is on it, says 

55
00:03:17,900 --> 00:03:21,300
today, the so-called debt Loft 
pass incident named after the 

56
00:03:21,300 --> 00:03:26,000
group's leader. 23 year, old 
ygor did Lop is one of Russia's,

57
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:29,500
most enduring Mysteries spawning
conspiracy. 

58
00:03:29,500 --> 00:03:31,700
Theories is varied as a military
cover-up. 

59
00:03:31,900 --> 00:03:36,400
UFO sighting in a and an 
abominable snowman attack 

60
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:38,600
radiation, Fallout 4, secret 
weapons test. 

61
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:40,600
And a clash with the indigenous 
man. 

62
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:43,100
See people. 
But as Robin George Andrews 

63
00:03:43,100 --> 00:03:46,500
reports for National Geographic.
New research published in the 

64
00:03:46,500 --> 00:03:49,800
journal Communications Earth and
environment points toward a more

65
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:54,000
sensible explanation. 
Drawing on Advanced Computer 

66
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:58,000
modeling, deposit that an 
unusually timed Avalanche 

67
00:03:58,300 --> 00:04:02,200
sealed, the hikers fate now 
looks like after all these 

68
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:04,800
years, the second course 
happened back in 1959. 

69
00:04:05,500 --> 00:04:07,900
The been able to finally come up
with another computer 

70
00:04:07,900 --> 00:04:11,700
computational power to put the 
theory out there that would 

71
00:04:11,700 --> 00:04:14,900
actually kill these. 
Poor people was an avalanche and

72
00:04:14,900 --> 00:04:19,300
the wounds that we see are 
actually impact wounds from that

73
00:04:19,300 --> 00:04:21,600
Avalanche. 
It says, we do not claim to have

74
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:26,000
solved the Map pass mystery is 
no one survived to tell their 

75
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:27,200
story. 
Lead author. 

76
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:31,500
John Johan Guam head of the snow
and Avalanche simulation 

77
00:04:31,500 --> 00:04:34,200
laboratory the Swiss Federal 
Institute of Technology tells 

78
00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:37,800
life science, brand inspector, 
but we show the plausibility of 

79
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:41,600
the Avalanche hypothesis for the
first time in 2019. 

80
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:45,300
Russian authorities announced 
plans to revisit the incident 

81
00:04:45,300 --> 00:04:48,600
which they attributed, not to 
your crime, but to an avalanche,

82
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:52,100
a snow slab, or a hurricane. 
So we can see that the Russians 

83
00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:56,200
I had been looking at this thing
as a natural disaster not as say

84
00:04:56,500 --> 00:04:59,700
a paranormal event. 
The following year, the inquiry 

85
00:04:59,700 --> 00:05:02,700
pinned, the hikers deaths on a 
combination of an avalanche 

86
00:05:02,700 --> 00:05:06,300
importance ability as a 
state-owned riaa news agency. 

87
00:05:06,300 --> 00:05:09,400
Reported in July, twenty twenty 
the official findings suggested 

88
00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:14,200
that a torrent of snow slabs are
blocky chunks, surprise, the 

89
00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:18,100
sleeping victims, and push them 
to seek shelter, at a nearby 

90
00:05:18,100 --> 00:05:20,500
Ridge. 
Unable to see more than 50 feet 

91
00:05:20,500 --> 00:05:23,600
ahead, the hikers froze. 
Death, is it attempted to make 

92
00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:27,000
their way back to their 10? 
Given the official findings 

93
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:30,800
black of key scientific 
scientific details as well as 

94
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:33,200
the Russian government's 
notorious lack of transparency. 

95
00:05:33,500 --> 00:05:36,800
However, this explanation failed
to quell The public's curiosity 

96
00:05:36,900 --> 00:05:40,900
/ National Geographic critics of
the slab. 

97
00:05:40,900 --> 00:05:45,400
Avalanche Theory site for main 
counter argument says, Guam to 

98
00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:48,500
Live Science, the lack of 
physical traces of an avalanche 

99
00:05:48,500 --> 00:05:51,800
found by Rescuers. 
The more than nine hour gap 

100
00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:55,400
between In the hikers building 
their Camp, a process that 

101
00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:57,900
required cutting into the 
mountain to form a barrier 

102
00:05:57,900 --> 00:06:02,400
Against the Wind and their Panic
departure, the shallow slope of 

103
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:04,100
the campsite. 
And the traumatic injuries. 

104
00:06:04,100 --> 00:06:07,000
Sustained by the group 
asphyxiation is a more common, 

105
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:08,600
cause of death for Avalanche 
victims. 

106
00:06:08,900 --> 00:06:11,900
So you can see here, where some 
of the people are saying, well, 

107
00:06:11,900 --> 00:06:14,300
this couldn't have been an 
avalanche because the type of 

108
00:06:14,308 --> 00:06:17,200
wounds sustained. 
Typically, if a person is buried

109
00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:21,500
in an avalanche, they dive 
fixation but that's not what 

110
00:06:21,500 --> 00:06:23,100
there. 
I think it's important to 

111
00:06:23,108 --> 00:06:25,900
remember here though, and will 
point out that the Avalanches 

112
00:06:25,900 --> 00:06:29,300
were talking about here, that 
that's theorize that killed 

113
00:06:29,300 --> 00:06:33,400
these folks at dip my past is 
basically blocks of ice coming 

114
00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:35,600
down on you. 
It would be like the, it would 

115
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:39,700
be like being a multiple car 
wrecks as opposed to a big pile 

116
00:06:39,700 --> 00:06:42,700
of fluffy snow, just burying a 
20 feet deep. 

117
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:47,300
It goes on. 
And says, Guam and co-author, 

118
00:06:47,300 --> 00:06:51,700
Alexander a and of geotechnical 
engineer at eth0 re-used 

119
00:06:52,500 --> 00:06:54,300
historical records to create the
mountains. 

120
00:06:54,300 --> 00:06:57,500
Environment environment on the 
night of the detlef incident and

121
00:06:57,500 --> 00:07:01,600
attempted to address these 
seaming inconsistencies, then 

122
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:04,700
the scientist right in the 
study, they simulated a slab 

123
00:07:04,700 --> 00:07:09,000
Avalanche drawing on snow 
friction data and local 

124
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:12,800
topography, which revealed that 
the slope wasn't actually 

125
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:15,900
shallow as it had seemed to 
prove that a All slow. 

126
00:07:15,900 --> 00:07:19,500
Slide could have swept through 
the area while leaving few 

127
00:07:19,500 --> 00:07:22,800
traces behind now. 
I like this notion that they're 

128
00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:26,100
going back and they're trying to
historically reconstruct the 

129
00:07:26,100 --> 00:07:29,500
scene of the accident and 
they're applying the scientific 

130
00:07:29,500 --> 00:07:32,700
method, they're using math to 
solve the problem. 

131
00:07:32,900 --> 00:07:36,900
And so many times when we see 
paranormal investigations, it 

132
00:07:36,900 --> 00:07:40,800
just comes down to well this is 
one person's opinion or maybe we

133
00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:45,500
have eyewitness accounts but we 
don't we don't Have accurate 

134
00:07:45,500 --> 00:07:48,800
clear, measurements of how 
things should up at the scene. 

135
00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:53,800
That's what I like so much about
the old History Channel series 

136
00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:56,600
that was on a few years ago back
about 10 12 years ago the UFO 

137
00:07:56,600 --> 00:08:00,000
Hunters they would go out and it
would it would have a video and 

138
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:01,900
then they would take the video 
to the lab and they would just 

139
00:08:01,900 --> 00:08:04,600
go through step-by-step and 
scientifically analyzed 

140
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:06,800
evidence. 
And that's what I see Happening 

141
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:08,100
Here. 
With these folks are trying to 

142
00:08:08,300 --> 00:08:12,000
scientifically analyze, the 
evidence that they have and what

143
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,400
evidence they don't have. 
They had to reconstruct. 

144
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:17,600
Based on their weather reports 
from the time. 

145
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:22,100
Now, it says the authors 
theorize, the katabatic winds 

146
00:08:22,100 --> 00:08:25,600
are fast-flowing funnels are 
propelled by the forces of 

147
00:08:25,608 --> 00:08:30,200
gravity transported, snow down 
the mountain, to the campsite it

148
00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:34,400
was like somebody coming. 
It was like somebody coming and 

149
00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:38,299
showing the snow from one place 
and putting on the slope above 

150
00:08:38,299 --> 00:08:41,100
the 10th person. 
Explains to New Scientist. 

151
00:08:41,100 --> 00:08:44,000
Charles eventually, the 
accumulating snow became too 

152
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:49,400
heavy for the slope of support. 
Now you probably know that as a,

153
00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:53,000
as a pointed here later in the 
article, when you get to the 

154
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:56,200
point where you had a 30 degree 
angle, that's when the slide 

155
00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:58,600
starts. 
And I think I was reading 

156
00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:01,900
somewhere with a pyramids, the 
Great Pyramid in Egypt that they

157
00:09:01,900 --> 00:09:04,700
started out building the step 
Pyramids and but then we see the

158
00:09:04,700 --> 00:09:08,500
pyramids evolve to a shape where
they're approximately at a 30 

159
00:09:08,500 --> 00:09:13,000
degree angle and it turns out if
you pour sand in the pile, it 

160
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:16,600
will slope at a natural. 30 
degree angle. 

161
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:20,500
So, it seems like what happened 
was they were on this Hillside 

162
00:09:20,500 --> 00:09:22,800
camping and they cut into the 
hill. 

163
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:26,200
And so, they actually put 
themselves in grave danger 

164
00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:29,400
because they create a situation,
or they were in a situation 

165
00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:32,000
where they were beyond that 
point of the third degree angle.

166
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:35,700
So they were to vary Likely 
place for a snow slider, 

167
00:09:35,700 --> 00:09:39,700
Avalanche to occur because it's 
a natural tendency of the 

168
00:09:39,700 --> 00:09:43,200
physics is for things to assume 
a 30 degree angle. 

169
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:46,800
It says it was like somebody 
coming and shoveling the snow 

170
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:49,700
from one place and putting it on
the slope above the tent. 

171
00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:53,200
Eventually the accumulating snow
became too heavy for the slope 

172
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:56,300
to support so you see that slope
is above 30 degrees. 

173
00:09:56,300 --> 00:09:59,700
It's going to slide down if they
didn't make if they hadn't made 

174
00:09:59,700 --> 00:10:02,300
a cut in the slope, nothing 
would have happened. 

175
00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:05,200
Wow. 
If they hadn't made a cut in the

176
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:07,200
slope, nothing would have 
happened if they would have just

177
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:11,200
pitched their tent there and not
gotten fancy, they would have 

178
00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:15,200
been fine but by cutting into 
the slope, they altered the 

179
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:19,100
natural state of things and then
they basically created a 

180
00:10:19,108 --> 00:10:21,400
man-made Avalanche isn't that 
scary? 

181
00:10:21,700 --> 00:10:23,900
So many times it seems like we 
think we're doing the right 

182
00:10:23,900 --> 00:10:26,900
thing in life. 
But maybe the thing that we're 

183
00:10:26,900 --> 00:10:29,200
doing that we think is helping 
it's not it's not actually 

184
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:32,900
helping at all. 
And Matt remember these folks 

185
00:10:32,900 --> 00:10:37,800
were they were they were camping
in extreme, conditions, extreme 

186
00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:41,500
cold extreme snow if they hadn't
made a cut in the slope, nothing

187
00:10:41,500 --> 00:10:44,100
would have happened says prison 
and a statement, but a certain 

188
00:10:44,100 --> 00:10:47,400
but at a certain point of crack 
would have formed and propagated

189
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:50,500
causing the snow slab. 
To release the research has 

190
00:10:50,500 --> 00:10:52,800
unravelled the final piece of 
the puzzle. 

191
00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:55,900
The hikers. 
Unexplained injuries with a Of a

192
00:10:55,908 --> 00:10:59,900
surprising Source, Disney's 2013
film Frozen. 

193
00:11:00,100 --> 00:11:02,900
According to National Geographic
Guam was so impressed by the 

194
00:11:02,900 --> 00:11:06,100
movie's depiction of snow that 
he asks gets created to share. 

195
00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:11,200
That he has his creditors who 
share the animation code with 

196
00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:13,600
him. 
This simulation tool coupled 

197
00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:17,300
with the data from the cadaver 
test conducted by General Motors

198
00:11:17,300 --> 00:11:21,700
1970s to determine what happened
to the human body when struck at

different speeds and able to 
pair to show that the heavy 

200
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:28,700
blocks of solid snow. 
Could have landed on the hikers 

201
00:11:28,700 --> 00:11:32,800
as they slept crushing their 
bones and causing injuries not 

202
00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:34,700
typically associated with 
Avalanches. 

203
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:39,800
If this was the case, the para 
position, has that those who had

204
00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:46,200
those, who, Those who had 
sustained less serious, blows 

205
00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:49,600
likely, drag their injured 
companions out of the tent in 

206
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:52,300
the hopes of saving their lives.
I'm going through this in the 

207
00:11:52,700 --> 00:11:55,800
end up web pages just going 
completely spasmodic on me. 

208
00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:58,800
So if I pause here and there 
it's because I'm trying to catch

209
00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:01,600
up with the text. 
It says Jim McQueen, a Geo 

210
00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:05,700
hazards expert at Durham 
university in England who wasn't

211
00:12:05,700 --> 00:12:07,700
involved in the study tells 
National Geographic that the 

212
00:12:07,700 --> 00:12:12,500
slabs of snow would have had to 
be incredibly stiff and moving 

213
00:12:12,500 --> 00:12:16,900
at a significant Speed to 
inflect, such violent injuries. 

214
00:12:17,500 --> 00:12:19,500
Well, let's stop and think 
about, you know, if a gallon of 

215
00:12:19,500 --> 00:12:22,800
water per gallon of water weighs
about what is it? 

216
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:25,000
Four pounds or 8 pounds? 
I mean it's a few pounds, right?

217
00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:27,200
Well, if a gallon of water 
weighs that much and if you have

218
00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:31,200
been swimming in a river, you 
know, the force of just, you get

219
00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:34,000
into a couple of feet of water, 
two or three feet of water. 

220
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:37,800
And, in a slow-moving, current 
can produce a tremendous amount 

221
00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:39,700
of force and actually become 
quite dangerous. 

222
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:43,500
So it's not hard for me to 
imagine that small. 

223
00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:46,700
Block or slab of ice would be 
quite heavy, maybe hundreds of 

224
00:12:46,700 --> 00:12:48,400
thousands or tens of thousands 
of pounds. 

225
00:12:48,700 --> 00:12:52,500
And it wouldn't have to move 
that fast or that far in order 

226
00:12:52,500 --> 00:12:54,800
for it to cut to cause a lot of 
injury. 

227
00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:57,000
It'd be like having a log roll 
over on a person. 

228
00:12:57,800 --> 00:13:01,100
This is speaking with New 
Scientist McClellan. 

229
00:13:01,100 --> 00:13:04,400
As that the research doesn't 
explain why these people after 

230
00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:07,600
being hit by an avalanche rent 
off without their clothes on end

231
00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:09,700
of the snow. 
Well, that's kind of silly. 

232
00:13:09,700 --> 00:13:11,300
Now, we know this probably 
happened at night, they were 

233
00:13:11,300 --> 00:13:14,700
sleeping, okay? 
Their clothes were probably wet,

234
00:13:14,700 --> 00:13:17,000
they took them off and they're 
sleeping there in that tent 

235
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:18,800
pole. 
All in it together, probably in 

236
00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:24,600
the wrong underwear as my guess.
So it's almost like it's like no

237
00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:27,100
matter what the theory is no 
matter how much sense it makes 

238
00:13:27,100 --> 00:13:29,200
somebody has to take on the role
of deep bunker. 

239
00:13:31,100 --> 00:13:33,600
They continues. 
If you're in that type of harsh 

240
00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:35,900
environment, it's suicide to 
leave shelter without your 

241
00:13:35,900 --> 00:13:38,300
clothes on. 
Well, what if you're under 6 

242
00:13:38,300 --> 00:13:41,100
feet of snow? 
And for people to do that, it 

243
00:13:41,100 --> 00:13:42,700
must have been terrified by 
something. 

244
00:13:44,700 --> 00:13:47,300
I assume that one of the most 
likely things is that one of 

245
00:13:47,300 --> 00:13:50,800
them went crazy for some reason.
I can't understand why all say 

246
00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:54,200
would have behaved and that way 
unless they were trying to flee 

247
00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:58,000
from someone who's been tracking
them, why see right now? 

248
00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:00,700
This argument to me is made a 
couple of False assumptions. 

249
00:14:01,500 --> 00:14:03,800
They assume some are crazy. 
Now, come on. 

250
00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:05,700
How often does someone just 
randomly? 

251
00:14:05,700 --> 00:14:07,900
Go crazy, on camping, trip? 
I know. 

252
00:14:07,900 --> 00:14:09,400
It probably happens. 
I know there are people out 

253
00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:12,100
there with mental health issues 
that maybe they aren't treated, 

254
00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:14,800
but let's be honest, these were 
people that knew each other, 

255
00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:17,800
there were camping together. 
They were doing extreme. 

256
00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:21,700
Cold weather camping. 
Doesn't seem like the likelihood

257
00:14:21,700 --> 00:14:23,800
here. 
Is that one of the people went 

258
00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:26,700
crazy and had a psychotic 
episode and decided to kill the 

259
00:14:26,700 --> 00:14:29,100
other eight people. 
That just seems pretty stupid to

260
00:14:29,100 --> 00:14:32,400
me. 
And I really find it a little 

261
00:14:32,900 --> 00:14:37,000
concerning this guy, but want to
just completely discount all of 

262
00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:40,800
the work that these folks have 
gone into to create this 

263
00:14:42,100 --> 00:14:44,700
possible theory of the 
Avalanche, which does make 

264
00:14:44,700 --> 00:14:47,200
perfect sense to me and just 
say, well, they were running 

265
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:50,300
from somebody, but we know that 
the accident happened at night, 

266
00:14:50,300 --> 00:14:53,600
the incident happened at night 
because they'd already dug this 

267
00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:57,100
hole. 
Into the snow on the side of 

268
00:14:57,108 --> 00:15:00,500
this hill, and put their tent 
there for whatever reason, 

269
00:15:00,500 --> 00:15:03,700
that's how they decide to do it.
So, they put themselves into 

270
00:15:03,700 --> 00:15:06,100
brick into a precarious 
situation to begin with. 

271
00:15:06,900 --> 00:15:09,000
Now, they talk about how they 
laid their skis. 

272
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:12,000
They were cross-country, skiing,
they later, skis down, and then 

273
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:14,900
later blankets, whatever top of 
them, and then, and then lay 

274
00:15:14,900 --> 00:15:17,600
down and piled up like it's more
blankets on top of them. 

275
00:15:18,100 --> 00:15:20,000
It makes sense that they 
weren't, they weren't wearing 

276
00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:24,200
the same Snow-covered clothes, 
they weren't sleeping in those 

277
00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:25,100
clothes. 
They were sleeping. 

278
00:15:25,100 --> 00:15:28,500
And some kind of, like I said, 
night clothes long underwear, 

279
00:15:28,500 --> 00:15:32,200
thermals whatever. 
So when this incident happened, 

280
00:15:32,500 --> 00:15:35,700
suddenly they went from being 
this nice cozy tent to being 

281
00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:40,900
just inundated with snow or 
maybe, maybe you begin to rumble

282
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:44,500
and they felt, they felt like 
their Adventure starting and 

283
00:15:44,500 --> 00:15:47,500
they were trying to get out of 
the Avalanche and on top of the 

284
00:15:47,500 --> 00:15:50,000
snow up out of this hole that 
they were in. 

285
00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:54,000
Basically, it looks like they'd 
cut a hole in the snow and Pitch

286
00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:56,700
their tent down in there but you
seem like a very unsafe thing to

287
00:15:56,700 --> 00:15:59,200
do especially on the side of the
Hill. 

288
00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:03,500
You know sometimes people think 
that they know more than they 

289
00:16:03,500 --> 00:16:06,600
know. 
And remember this is Soviet 

290
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:10,700
Union post World War Two and 
maybe they should have taken 

291
00:16:10,700 --> 00:16:13,200
some lessons from the locals 
about how they went camping. 

292
00:16:13,500 --> 00:16:16,100
There were local indigenous 
people in that area to First the

293
00:16:16,100 --> 00:16:19,400
Russians, the Russians kind of 
try to throw a little shade on 

294
00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:22,600
these folks like hey, maybe They
were the ones that committed 

295
00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:25,000
this heinous murder against 
these Caucasian folks because 

296
00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:29,400
the indigenous people, I think 
we're more more likely related 

297
00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:33,800
to save Asiatic folks or more 
Eskimo or Native American 

298
00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:37,000
however you want to put it here 
again though. 

299
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:40,300
It seems like we still have this
tendency to want to debunk 

300
00:16:40,300 --> 00:16:44,100
something. 
That a theory that actually in 

301
00:16:44,100 --> 00:16:47,200
my mind conforms closer to the 
scientific method than anything,

302
00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:49,700
we've come across so far. 
Now it says, Guam on the other 

303
00:16:49,700 --> 00:16:53,100
hand views the situation where 
the differently, as he tells 

304
00:16:53,100 --> 00:16:56,500
life science, when the hikers 
decided to go to the force, they

305
00:16:56,500 --> 00:16:58,400
took care of their injured 
friends. 

306
00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:02,000
No one was left behind. 
I think it, I think it is a 

307
00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:05,500
great story of courage and 
friendship and the face of a 

308
00:17:05,500 --> 00:17:10,500
brutal force of nature. 
So, what happened was, Whatever 

309
00:17:10,500 --> 00:17:15,800
happened, whether this was an 
avalanche and I think it 

310
00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:20,200
certainly was, if you go if you 
go to the webpage, UFO 

311
00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:22,000
morning.com and Link onto this 
article. 

312
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:26,000
I have the link posted there and
it has a very detailed diagram 

313
00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:29,600
and it shows how they came 
along. 

314
00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:33,000
And, for whatever to me, it's 
inexplicable, they decided, hey,

315
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:34,600
this is we're going to Camp our 
tent. 

316
00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:39,300
So they literally just carved 
this L-shaped wedge into the 

317
00:17:39,300 --> 00:17:43,100
side of He'll so you have you 
have this tent looks like it's 

318
00:17:43,108 --> 00:17:46,900
probably six seven foot tall and
on the one side. 

319
00:17:46,900 --> 00:17:51,200
So you're looking at it on the 
slope side, slopes down to it. 

320
00:17:51,300 --> 00:17:56,300
Here's this big layer of snow 
and ice and you've just cut a 

321
00:17:56,308 --> 00:17:58,600
wall into it. 
And now, here's a nice smooth 

322
00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:01,400
place to build my tent. 
What did they do? 

323
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:06,700
They cut a hole. 
In that in that potential 

324
00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:10,300
Avalanche Zone. 
And what that's done is it has 

325
00:18:10,300 --> 00:18:13,700
literally taken. 
It's like, it's like, you had an

326
00:18:13,700 --> 00:18:17,500
arch and you took out one of the
Key Stone pieces. 

327
00:18:17,500 --> 00:18:18,900
Well, the arch is going to 
collapse. 

328
00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:22,200
Well, this didn't collapse 
immediately because there are 

329
00:18:22,300 --> 00:18:25,200
certain amount of tension from 
the ice itself had obviously 

330
00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:26,800
held it together. 
But it's pretty clear to me. 

331
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:31,100
They cut this, they cut this 
wood shape into the side of the 

332
00:18:31,100 --> 00:18:32,700
Hill. 
Okay, so now we have this big 

333
00:18:32,700 --> 00:18:36,400
pile of snow. 
That's uphill from us and we 

334
00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:39,400
have our tent here and what's 
going to happen, you've taken 

335
00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:43,500
away, the support structure. 
So, over the course of about 9 

336
00:18:43,500 --> 00:18:48,300
hours, it looks like with more 
snow and wind moving in. 

337
00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:53,600
Eventually this big giant 
probably, I mean, a multi 

338
00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:57,100
multi-ton. 
Slab of ice, just slides, right 

339
00:18:57,100 --> 00:19:00,600
down the Hillside and what's in 
its way. 

340
00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:03,600
Well, your tents and it's away 
the tent that you just cut into 

341
00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:05,900
the side of this giant slab of 
ice. 

342
00:19:06,300 --> 00:19:09,900
When you look at this, when you 
look at this diagram and they 

343
00:19:09,900 --> 00:19:14,300
show what they did, To my mind. 
I'm thinking why in the world 

344
00:19:14,308 --> 00:19:17,000
would you do this? 
I mean, this is just the dumbest

345
00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:20,100
thing a person could ever do in 
my opinion because you put 

346
00:19:20,100 --> 00:19:24,400
yourself in an avalanche Zone 
and like they said, maybe they 

347
00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:27,000
took a first look at it because 
of the way the snow had piled up

348
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:30,200
was a deceptive, they thought 
that they had plenty. 

349
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:33,200
The slope was, was gradual 
enough that it wouldn't slide. 

350
00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:37,400
But when you get right down to 
it, the underlying Topography of

351
00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:40,200
the ground was way past 30 
degrees. 

352
00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:45,300
So this was an avalanche prone 
area, and when you cut a wedge 

353
00:19:45,300 --> 00:19:50,500
into this big slab of ice, Well,
it's going to do what it's going

354
00:19:50,500 --> 00:19:51,900
to do. 
It's going to slide downhill. 

355
00:19:51,900 --> 00:19:54,900
That's the natural thing for 
this to do, and it took a little

356
00:19:54,900 --> 00:19:56,900
while. 
They cut this wedge in, they put

357
00:19:56,900 --> 00:19:59,500
their 10 in and over the course 
of about nine hours. 

358
00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:02,200
This thing just slit right over 
the top of them. 

359
00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:06,000
Probably what happened was that?
It looks like there was snow and

360
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:08,900
ice on top. 
Looks like probably what 

361
00:20:08,900 --> 00:20:11,000
happens. 
Some people were like right in 

362
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:12,800
the Impact Zone. 
You know, you can have four or 

363
00:20:12,808 --> 00:20:14,800
five people in one car and have 
a terrible car. 

364
00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:16,600
Wreck one person, might walk 
away. 

365
00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:18,500
Any other person might end up 
dead. 

366
00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:21,500
Might depend a bit that they had
your seat belts on my depend 

367
00:20:21,500 --> 00:20:25,300
upon, whether you're at the car 
might depend upon what kind of 

368
00:20:25,300 --> 00:20:28,400
impact they received and seems 
like a couple of people who had 

369
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:32,700
two really bad injuries with a 
broken bones, but this one poor 

370
00:20:32,700 --> 00:20:34,300
soul, she had her eyes 
knockdown. 

371
00:20:34,500 --> 00:20:36,700
Well, it sounds terrible, it 
sounds impossible, but let me 

372
00:20:36,700 --> 00:20:38,700
tell you something. 
When people People sustained, 

373
00:20:38,700 --> 00:20:40,600
high impact injuries, they fall 
off a building. 

374
00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:43,900
They get hit in a car accident. 
Those kinds of terrible things 

375
00:20:43,900 --> 00:20:46,900
do happen. 
The human body does just seem to

376
00:20:46,900 --> 00:20:49,600
come apart and that's what seems
to have happened here. 

377
00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:52,600
And then it looks like probably 
what happened then over the 

378
00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:54,000
course of the next few seconds 
or minutes. 

379
00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:58,500
Whatever the people that were 
maybe shielded by this first 

380
00:20:58,500 --> 00:21:00,900
victims cut their way out of the
tent. 

381
00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:04,500
They got their friends out of 
there, but their supplies, 

382
00:21:04,500 --> 00:21:07,400
everything else had been buried 
in so much snow that they 

383
00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:09,800
weren't able. 
Able to get back and retrieve 

384
00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:13,000
the things they needed and they 
literally froze to death died. 

385
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:21,200
This exposure before they were 
able to Recover enough enough 

386
00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:25,700
supplies to survive the climate 
and, you know, I think what I 

387
00:21:25,708 --> 00:21:28,000
see when I look at this article 
did lot pass. 

388
00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:32,900
It says here at the end it says 
and they'll finish up, it says, 

389
00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:36,900
Jim McLean at Gio has expert at 
Durham University. 

390
00:21:36,900 --> 00:21:39,600
England who wasn't involved, 
it's a tells metric of the slabs

391
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:43,400
of snow would have been 
incredibly stiff and moving at a

392
00:21:43,408 --> 00:21:47,500
significant speed to inflict 
such a response and then it goes

393
00:21:47,500 --> 00:21:55,100
on. 
He says, He talks about, they 

394
00:21:55,100 --> 00:21:59,000
talks about how the people 
reacted. 

395
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:02,400
Well, here's the thing, that 
people, what I see Happening 

396
00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:07,300
Here is I see a group of people 
from One environment, a group of

397
00:22:07,300 --> 00:22:11,100
people from what the time was a 
modern environment they're in 

398
00:22:11,100 --> 00:22:17,200
the Soviet Union going into this
really out back area, a very 

399
00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:22,400
Basically a place had been 
inhabited by indigenous people 

400
00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:26,900
for many, many years and trying 
to apply their techniques of 

401
00:22:26,900 --> 00:22:31,300
survival. 
To a situation which would have 

402
00:22:31,300 --> 00:22:33,700
been which would have been much 
better served. 

403
00:22:33,700 --> 00:22:36,900
If they would have taken the 
time to examine how the people 

404
00:22:36,900 --> 00:22:40,100
that live there, survived that 
situation. 

405
00:22:40,100 --> 00:22:42,500
I don't think you would have saw
this indigenous people ever 

406
00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:50,100
cutting a wedge into the side of
an avalanche prone pile of snow 

407
00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:54,000
and then basically pitching 
their tent right there in front 

408
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:57,000
of that pile of snow. 
I also see when I see from this 

409
00:22:57,000 --> 00:23:01,200
is the description of the of the
really bad injuries and what 

410
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:03,400
people find when they got there 
and their expectations. 

411
00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:07,500
Played a lot into what they 
thought might have happened the 

412
00:23:07,500 --> 00:23:10,400
cause and effect. 
But when we go back and we look 

413
00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:13,700
at this thing and we take and we
subjected to the scientific 

414
00:23:13,700 --> 00:23:16,700
method and we really apply the 
math to it. 

415
00:23:17,700 --> 00:23:21,500
And you look at the video here 
and it's really it's dramatic. 

416
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,300
It's they got to fit it, goes 
along with this and it's a 

417
00:23:24,308 --> 00:23:27,400
little disturbing but it shows 
you exactly. 

418
00:23:28,300 --> 00:23:30,000
How these people could have 
sustained, these kinds of 

419
00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:32,300
injuries, and you have to ask 
yourself. 

420
00:23:32,300 --> 00:23:36,600
My, why would you put yourself 
in that, and that sort of a 

421
00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:39,000
situation where you were just in
such a present danger? 

422
00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:43,700
I mean, basically, they just 
found a big chunk of ice. 

423
00:23:43,700 --> 00:23:47,300
That was ready to fall down. 
They made it even more unstable 

424
00:23:47,300 --> 00:23:48,500
by cutting a hole in the side of
it. 

425
00:23:48,500 --> 00:23:50,800
And then pitching their true 
pitching, a tent in front of it.

426
00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:53,700
It's like it's like parking the 
truck on the side of a hill. 

427
00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:59,300
Okay, releasing the parking 
brake and then camping behind it

428
00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:02,600
and waiting for all the air to 
go out of the brakes so that the

429
00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:04,600
truck can roll back and roll the
top of you. 

430
00:24:04,700 --> 00:24:07,200
That's basically what happens 
basically what happened here? 

431
00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:14,000
They had they camped. 
On a hillside in the path. 

432
00:24:15,100 --> 00:24:19,700
Of this big sheet of ice which 
was effectively the size of and 

433
00:24:19,700 --> 00:24:25,900
the weight of multiples loaded 
semi trucks and then they cut a 

434
00:24:25,900 --> 00:24:29,500
wall through that ice and made a
little spot for their 10th. 

435
00:24:29,900 --> 00:24:33,700
In other words, it would be to 
say, you've got multiple semi 

436
00:24:33,700 --> 00:24:37,000
trucks parked on a hillside. 
So you decide to go in and 

437
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:41,100
release the parking brakes. 
I don't chock the wheels and 

438
00:24:41,100 --> 00:24:44,800
then just leave those trucks are
parked on a hillside knowing 

439
00:24:44,900 --> 00:24:48,900
that when the error finally 
leaves a brake system, whatever 

440
00:24:49,100 --> 00:24:51,100
they're going to their brakes 
are going to fail and are going 

441
00:24:51,100 --> 00:24:54,400
to slide down the hill. 
That's kind of what they did. 

442
00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:59,500
They put themselves in a in a 
situation where the only thing 

443
00:24:59,500 --> 00:25:01,900
that could have happened did 
happen. 

444
00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:08,700
And this is proven to me, By the
scientific research, these guys 

445
00:25:08,700 --> 00:25:11,100
did. 
And it just what I like about it

446
00:25:11,100 --> 00:25:14,200
is, you know, it has a limit. 
Yes, it would have been, maybe 

447
00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:16,000
more interesting. 
If we could approve that there 

448
00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:19,200
were Bigfoot tracks around, or 
there was some sort of a UFO 

449
00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:23,700
connection, but what the authors
of this paper have done, is they

450
00:25:23,700 --> 00:25:27,000
have just gone through and 
they've just, they've just gone 

451
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:30,600
through and just a basic math. 
They did the work and they drew 

452
00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:37,000
the diagrams, and they recreated
the situation that Dated the 

453
00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:40,200
death of those people so we can 
see, we can look at that tent 

454
00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:41,400
right there on the side of that 
hill. 

455
00:25:41,500 --> 00:25:46,000
We can see that big massive ice 
sheet as just before it's sliced

456
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:48,700
on top of them and then they 
show us what that would do to a 

457
00:25:48,708 --> 00:25:51,200
human body. 
That kind of way at that speed 

458
00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:53,600
and why some people would have 
died and some people would have 

459
00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:56,700
survived. 
And then the effect of that was,

460
00:25:56,700 --> 00:26:00,000
they weren't able to recover the
warm clothes, well, who's and 

461
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:01,600
people say well, why were they 
naked? 

462
00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:04,400
Well, why would you sleep in a 
tent with wet clothes on? 

463
00:26:04,500 --> 00:26:08,000
You wouldn't You have your night
clothes on which they did their 

464
00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:10,500
underwear. 
And so when this Avalanche 

465
00:26:10,500 --> 00:26:14,700
happened, they escaped the tent,
they drugged their drug, their 

466
00:26:14,700 --> 00:26:18,100
wounded and dead comrades to 
safety, but they didn't have 

467
00:26:18,100 --> 00:26:21,000
time, they only knew it had very
