1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:18,920
I'm Kendall, and I'm Bree, and this is the 20th episode of When the Light Goes Out.

2
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:40,000
Hey everyone, it's our 20th episode. Fuck yeah, we've been fucking it up so far. I'm so proud of us.

3
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:44,000
Woo, shout out to Kendall for fucking it up.

4
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:50,000
Putting shit together every week, oh my god. It's a light, but it's cool. Again, we do this all for you,

5
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:52,000
and we love you guys so, so much, so it's great.

6
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:54,000
I definitely just hit the mic. I'm so sorry.

7
00:00:54,000 --> 00:01:03,000
Oh, you're fine. Oh yeah, we got new mics, so not new mics. We both have matching mics now, so we're getting even better on you guys.

8
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:10,000
We're fucking it up on this bitch, and we also have a goddamn TikTok.

9
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:11,000
TikTok!

10
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:12,000
Go on to...

11
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:15,000
Welcome to the 21st century.

12
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:24,000
It took us long enough. Yeah, so you can go onto WTLGO Podcast. Yeah, that's us, right?

13
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:25,000
That is us.

14
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:34,000
That is us, and you can find us on TikTok at us, please. We'll be doing cute little, little clip-its and stuff like that throughout the next Who Knows How Long,

15
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:43,000
so that'll be fine. We are currently also filming from my phone because I am a dumbass, and I forgot the SD cards for the GoPro's at home.

16
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:45,000
No, I'm not. I'm a dumbass. Shut up.

17
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:46,000
Thank you.

18
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:50,000
I'm actually very smart. I went to college.

19
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:51,000
You did. You graduated.

20
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:52,000
Hey!

21
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:53,000
I just kidded.

22
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:58,000
Most of these clips are gonna involve me being in various blankets.

23
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:05,000
Okay, but y'all, if you go back to last week's episode, and Simon, you might wanna like, turn on the volume on this, her titties are like,

24
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:14,000
No, seriously, oh my god. I was like editing them, I'm like, damn this.

25
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:17,000
I grew them myself. Thank you.

26
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:19,000
It's okay.

27
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:21,000
Mine is my titties.

28
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:23,000
Mine is my ass.

29
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:30,000
My various blankets that you'll see throughout all the different clips.

30
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:31,000
Seriously, though?

31
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:32,000
I love that, though.

32
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:36,000
I watch it throughout every episode, and then me gazing off into the distance staring at my cats.

33
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:41,000
Yeah, I was gonna say, most of the time it's her looking at her cats, and then I'll get side-tracked by her looking at her cats,

34
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:43,000
and so I'll look at the cats.

35
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:45,000
Yeah, because I am in love with my cats.

36
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:47,000
You love the cats. They're so cute.

37
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:51,000
I love my cats. They're my pride and my joys.

38
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:56,000
I recommend if you are mentally unwell to buy a cat.

39
00:02:56,000 --> 00:03:02,000
I recommend if you're mentally unwell to don't do what I do, which is drink every day.

40
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:03,000
Yeah.

41
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:08,000
Okay, I made that sound really bad. I don't drink like crazy amounts, but I do drink a lot of wine.

42
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:11,000
I just noticed you hit us with the Gucci glasses.

43
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:13,000
You don't have to say that.

44
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:16,000
Me and my Michael Kua's could never!

45
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:20,000
Shut up. We both had clear glasses. We both looked so amazing.

46
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:23,000
My Michael Kua said who is that?

47
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:26,000
You're like, whatever. You look amazing.

48
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:29,000
Okay, Bree is so amazingly pretty that it bugs me.

49
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:30,000
Stop. Okay.

50
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,000
But you know what? That's not what this show is about.

51
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:33,000
No.

52
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:34,000
It's fine.

53
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,000
We're not doing that.

54
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:39,000
I don't take compliments well, people.

55
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:42,000
It's okay. We get it.

56
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,000
Light skin pose.

57
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:46,000
Gosh.

58
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:49,000
So it's super cold outside.

59
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:54,000
That's super cold. Actually, it's actually warmer than it has been lately in the past month.

60
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,000
But it's super rainy. But you know what?

61
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:59,000
I would rather it be raining rather than be snowing.

62
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:02,000
So it's okay. I don't mind it that much.

63
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:08,000
Which is a perfect segue into our topic today, speaking of snow.

64
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:13,000
We were actually going to do Aliens this week for our 20th episode.

65
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:18,000
But last minute, when I was researching about Aliens in the corner,

66
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:22,000
I had seen this little topic about another topic that I was like,

67
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:24,000
huh, what is this about?

68
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:29,000
So I clicked into it and I was like, no, this is definitely going to be our 20th episode.

69
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:34,000
This is really creepy. This is really like a middle ground between...

70
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:42,000
Like, it's a good middle ground to me within like the realm of maybe not true crime.

71
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:44,000
Yeah, maybe. I don't know.

72
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:45,000
Could be.

73
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:46,000
Could be.

74
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:49,000
Yeah, if you guys have conspiracies, let us know.

75
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:54,000
Because this is a really eerie, uncomforting, mysterious case.

76
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:55,000
I will say that.

77
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:57,000
So I'm really excited to share this one with you guys.

78
00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:02,000
I did not do this via my notes on my laptop.

79
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:06,000
So I am reading off of my written notes today.

80
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:11,000
So I'll be here page flipping. I'm sorry, but you know, we'll do the best we can.

81
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:12,000
It's cool.

82
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:15,000
Hey, if you want to hear about Aliens, though, let us know.

83
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:17,000
We will definitely cover Aliens. Don't think that we won't.

84
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:19,000
We will. I promise.

85
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:20,000
If you guys want it.

86
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:22,000
If you guys want it, let us know.

87
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:28,000
You guys make a lot of the decisions and you make no decisions for us whatsoever so far.

88
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:31,000
But that's what I mean to say. It's not a bad thing, but it will help.

89
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:32,000
Tell us what to do.

90
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:33,000
It will help.

91
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,000
It would definitely help to get suggestions.

92
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:36,000
Give us feedback.

93
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:40,000
Yeah, because at the moment we're kind of just going off a weather of refined,

94
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:43,000
which is not a bad thing, but we want to hear what you guys think.

95
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:48,000
If you guys have any cases that are really interesting, if you have any cases that are,

96
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:54,000
you know, something that a lot of people haven't heard of because I feel like we do a lot of cases that are very popular.

97
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:55,000
Let us know.

98
00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:56,000
We're always here for the lesson.

99
00:05:56,000 --> 00:06:03,000
We're always here to take notes and yeah, so further ado, let's dive into this case.

100
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:05,000
Wait, I wanted to add on.

101
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:08,000
Don't tell it to me verbally, though, because I will forget.

102
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:10,000
Oh, good point.

103
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:11,000
Good point. You know what?

104
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:14,000
She has a good point. She has a great point.

105
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:18,000
Actually, I have the brain the size of a peanut.

106
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:23,000
No, I don't seriously hallelujah like preach because you know what?

107
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:30,000
Everyone comes up to me and whether it's like in person, like I have friends or I don't know.

108
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:37,000
I just always have people verbally tell me, Hey, do this story and I like forget because I don't write this shit down right away.

109
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:42,000
So definitely email us or, you know, DM us whatever you need to do.

110
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:43,000
Send it somewhere.

111
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:44,000
Send it somewhere.

112
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:46,000
We look everywhere.

113
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:48,000
We look in all of our inboxes.

114
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:50,000
We'll be looking for you.

115
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:52,000
Nice.

116
00:06:52,000 --> 00:07:01,000
So without further ado, let's dive into this case and it is a story time.

117
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:02,000
I'm excited.

118
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:06,000
Grab your spooky blankets and your cats.

119
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:08,000
Because it's story time.

120
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:10,000
Because it's story time, mother fuckers.

121
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:13,000
Sorry. I need a minute for my eyes to like adjust.

122
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:15,000
I've been looking at the ring light.

123
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:17,000
Guys, this ring light is so bright.

124
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:22,000
When I look away from the ring light, like all I see is a circle and like, oh shit.

125
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:23,000
I couldn't see the notes.

126
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:24,000
Just a minute.

127
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:25,000
Let my eyes adjust.

128
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:28,000
You can't look at the ring light. You have to look at the phone.

129
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:29,000
Okay.

130
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:32,000
Yeah. My dumb ass will look at the sun and be like, what's going on?

131
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:37,000
I don't see the ring light anywhere, but I'm looking directly at the phone.

132
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:38,000
Yeah.

133
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:39,000
That does help.

134
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:40,000
Oh, you're right.

135
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:41,000
Yeah, my dumb ass.

136
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:42,000
Focus your eyes.

137
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:43,000
But that light is blinding.

138
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:44,000
It's bright.

139
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:45,000
That's for sure.

140
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:46,000
I hope you all can tell.

141
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:47,000
That's for sure.

142
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:50,000
I hope if you can't see my pores, it's not bright enough.

143
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:51,000
All right.

144
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:58,000
So without further ado, this is the chilling case of the Diet Love Pass mystery.

145
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:00,000
No, this really is a mystery, guys.

146
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:01,000
It is.

147
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:02,000
Definitely.

148
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:03,000
Buckle your seatbelt.

149
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:04,000
Strap in.

150
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:05,000
Strap in.

151
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:10,000
Because it may not be a long episode, but it will be a really interesting one.

152
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:12,000
It'll sit on your mind for a couple of weeks.

153
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:13,000
I assure you.

154
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:14,000
All right.

155
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:20,040
So this is a mysterious case of nine Russian student hikers that died in the northern

156
00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:29,360
Ural Mountains from odd and unknown circumstances between February 1st and February 2nd of 1959.

157
00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:34,080
These students have been found frozen to death in sub-polar conditions without wearing any

158
00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:37,600
winter clothes and miles away from their tents.

159
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:40,240
That was also found completely shredded.

160
00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:45,520
Yet the surrounding area showed no signs of natural disasters such as an avalanche or

161
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:47,440
anything like that.

162
00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:52,400
The way some of these bodies have been discovered is very gruesome, by the way.

163
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:54,360
So like I said, it's a.

164
00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:55,360
It's a mystery.

165
00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:56,360
It's a mystery.

166
00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:57,360
Yeah.

167
00:08:57,360 --> 00:08:59,360
So I've been deeper and deeper.

168
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:04,720
I have telling you guys, researching this case, listening to documentaries, reading everything

169
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:07,240
I could about this case, I don't know.

170
00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:08,240
I really don't know.

171
00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:09,240
Anyway, look at it.

172
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:13,760
I get stuck at some kind of like dead end because I think about, you know, maybe this

173
00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:17,040
was going to happen or maybe this happened or whatever.

174
00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:18,040
But you know what?

175
00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:19,240
We'll go over conspiracies.

176
00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:21,880
You guys can let us know what you guys think.

177
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:25,800
And with that, let's just keep going.

178
00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:32,520
So what is truly the helltale about this case is that once found, it seemed as if officials

179
00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:38,000
handling this case tried to hide evidence and deeming the student deaths accidental,

180
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:40,160
quote unquote.

181
00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:41,920
Clearly that's not the case.

182
00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:48,040
Ultimately, we find that there are so many different conspiracy theories for years that

183
00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:51,640
people theorize that this could be the doing of a handful of things.

184
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:54,800
And like I said, we'll just cover the series at the end.

185
00:09:54,800 --> 00:10:07,320
So the story goes, in January 1959, group leader Igor Dyatlov led an expedition of 10

186
00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:12,040
young college students throughout the Ural Mountains to conduct research.

187
00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:20,840
And what this basically was was a university explorers club kind of such at the Ural Polytechnical

188
00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:21,840
University.

189
00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:25,520
Don't know a lot about explorers clubs, but it does sound fun.

190
00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:34,560
Don't know if I could do what they did, but hey, I'm not a climate person.

191
00:10:34,560 --> 00:10:38,680
I am not like nature type person.

192
00:10:38,680 --> 00:10:46,960
I wouldn't say I wouldn't go on a hike, but I couldn't do it and blow zero weather.

193
00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:51,800
So funny is I literally just had this conversation with someone with actually my class.

194
00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:58,360
My co-workers shout out, hey guys, about like being, I guess outdoorsy and I always say

195
00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:04,320
how people would never picture me as an outdoorsy person, which in theory I am not.

196
00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:10,560
But if someone were to invite me or like whatever, like I would go, if my friends were to invite

197
00:11:10,560 --> 00:11:13,360
me or if I really wanted to go, like I would go.

198
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:14,360
We'll see the other thing.

199
00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:15,360
Just because I wouldn't want to miss out.

200
00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:16,360
Yeah.

201
00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:21,360
The other thing too is like, and in terms of like this case being that what happens happens

202
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:28,600
and a mountain range with like seriously like just freezing snow.

203
00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:30,240
We live in Michigan already.

204
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:33,280
We know what snow is like.

205
00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:34,280
I don't like it.

206
00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:35,280
I don't either.

207
00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:42,560
I, you couldn't pay me enough money to go on a camping trip in the wilderness with snow.

208
00:11:42,560 --> 00:11:43,680
Like it's just not a thing.

209
00:11:43,680 --> 00:11:46,480
No, I would never like camp in the snow.

210
00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:48,440
I hate like, well, that's what I'm saying.

211
00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:53,720
Like I like would enjoy like camping or like going out.

212
00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:55,520
I do like when I'm out nature.

213
00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:56,520
Yeah.

214
00:11:56,520 --> 00:12:01,360
I don't hate it, you know, but like never would I ever in snow.

215
00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:02,440
I hate being cold.

216
00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:03,440
I hate the snow.

217
00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:04,440
I don't even like rain.

218
00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:08,640
I don't like being wet like like no, like swimmings fine.

219
00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:09,640
Yeah.

220
00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:10,640
Like rain.

221
00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:12,680
Like that's just like kind of like you're kind of wet.

222
00:12:12,680 --> 00:12:13,680
Yeah.

223
00:12:13,680 --> 00:12:14,680
Like damp.

224
00:12:14,680 --> 00:12:15,680
I hate it.

225
00:12:15,680 --> 00:12:16,680
Either way.

226
00:12:16,680 --> 00:12:18,960
I don't, for me personally, I prefer the rain over snow.

227
00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:19,960
I can't do snow.

228
00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:21,120
Guys, I don't know.

229
00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:22,120
I hate it.

230
00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:24,000
Is it every Michigan or don't know?

231
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:25,000
Is it every West or?

232
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:26,720
No, it's people like the charm.

233
00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:27,720
Some people like it.

234
00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:28,720
I don't.

235
00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:33,520
I, the only, the only reason I would ever like the snow is to go skiing or snorboarding.

236
00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:35,120
I have even done that.

237
00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:36,960
So I can't even tell you what it's like.

238
00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:37,960
Literally no.

239
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:38,960
All right.

240
00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:39,960
Oh, sorry.

241
00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:40,960
Oh my God.

242
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:44,240
It's got a little like, I've been having a headache all day.

243
00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:45,240
I don't know what that's about.

244
00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:46,240
Sorry guys.

245
00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:47,240
I don't know.

246
00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:48,240
What's going on with me?

247
00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:50,240
I mean, it's the snow.

248
00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:51,560
All right.

249
00:12:51,560 --> 00:12:54,160
So exploring mountains for these students was a hobby.

250
00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:58,840
And most of, if not all, were experienced hikers who knew the methods and techniques

251
00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:01,600
of hiking and dangerous climates.

252
00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:07,800
And the most experienced was the student Igor Dietlove, who was also the group leader

253
00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:12,400
of this expedition.

254
00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:15,680
This was a guy that knew nothing but hiking.

255
00:13:15,680 --> 00:13:18,720
He specifically was skilled in survival techniques.

256
00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:24,240
And again, he led nine other students that trusted that he could lead very well.

257
00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:31,800
So Yasi was also a, you know, student, but this man knew a lot about the history.

258
00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:35,000
He knew a lot about how to get around the nature.

259
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:37,360
He knew a lot about how to survive nature.

260
00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:38,520
He knew all these things about it.

261
00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:41,400
And I would suggest that that's something you would need to know if you're going to

262
00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:43,240
lead a, a pack of students.

263
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:44,240
So yeah.

264
00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:45,240
For sure.

265
00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:49,560
I would go in the line with someone who like doesn't know.

266
00:13:49,560 --> 00:13:53,080
That's like how letting me like lead you throughout the woods.

267
00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:54,080
Don't don't do that.

268
00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:55,080
Yeah.

269
00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:56,080
Don't follow.

270
00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:59,160
Listen, I am getting better at North, South, East and West.

271
00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:00,160
Are you really?

272
00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:01,160
I don't know how to do that still.

273
00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:03,680
So you have to teach me how to do that.

274
00:14:03,680 --> 00:14:06,160
Cause I fucking will get lost in the minute.

275
00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:08,440
I walk into any kind of wooded area.

276
00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:12,840
My mom, well, like woods, I would have a hard time, but like if I'm in like a city, I can

277
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:13,840
like figure it out.

278
00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:14,840
Oh, city.

279
00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:15,840
I got that shit.

280
00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:16,840
Yeah.

281
00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:19,360
When I go to New York, I got that subway like it's nothing.

282
00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:23,720
I can figure out the North, South, East and West, but if I was in the woods, I think I'd

283
00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:24,720
have a hard time.

284
00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:25,720
No, we're done.

285
00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:26,720
I'm gone.

286
00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:27,720
Don't look for me.

287
00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:28,720
I'm probably gone.

288
00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:29,720
I'm done.

289
00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:34,600
So, so another student that went on this expedition was Zina.

290
00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:36,760
I'm going to try to pronounce it last time.

291
00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:37,760
Right.

292
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:38,760
It's Colomagrava.

293
00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:42,080
I think I said that right.

294
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:48,040
Don't speculate that Igor and Zina actually may have been involved with each other romantically,

295
00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:52,760
but other sources provide stronger evidence to insist that it may have just been Igor

296
00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:59,560
that was attracted to Zina being that, you know, they hung out a lot.

297
00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:02,160
They were friends that kind of knew each other.

298
00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:08,040
And the weird thing is that though Zina had more eyes for another guy that was a part

299
00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:09,440
of this trip.

300
00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:13,440
And his name was Yuri Dorashinko.

301
00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:16,800
So one thing about this case is that there are two Yuris.

302
00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:22,680
One thing I noticed about, I don't know if it's specifically like German kind of things,

303
00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:27,960
but I noticed that a lot of these people have the same names, like same last names or same

304
00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:29,320
first names.

305
00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:31,760
And there's two Yuris in this case.

306
00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:34,960
So if I say the last names, just know there's two different Yuris going on.

307
00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:37,760
I don't want to confuse you guys that don't know anything.

308
00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:41,720
But there was a guy named Yuri, Yuri Dorashinko.

309
00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:47,560
Yuri Dorashinko was the third member of the Diet Love Pass expedition.

310
00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:54,080
Yuri was kind of the eye candy type of guy and he had this charming look to him.

311
00:15:54,080 --> 00:16:00,280
He was coming from a poor and very low income household, so he was very humble.

312
00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:06,600
And one time even on the expedition managed to scare off a whole ass bear to the point

313
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:11,000
where the bear hat ran off and Zeno was there during that expedition.

314
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:12,360
So it kind of makes sense.

315
00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:15,280
Why kind of like a guy who can fight off a bear.

316
00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:18,920
I mean, if I saw a man fight off a bear, I'd fall in love with him too.

317
00:16:18,920 --> 00:16:20,880
That is pretty impressive.

318
00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:21,880
That is impressive.

319
00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:24,120
I can't say that's something everyone can do.

320
00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:26,600
Simon, are you going to fight off a bear for me?

321
00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:30,080
Simon, if you fight off a fucking bear, I'm marrying you too.

322
00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:31,360
Just saying.

323
00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:36,920
So Luda Mila also goes by Luda, I kind of go by Luda instead, was the first student

324
00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:40,040
on this excursion to the Ural Mountains.

325
00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:42,600
Again, very experienced in tourism.

326
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:45,920
A very small girl with a lot of might.

327
00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:52,640
One time she had been accidentally shot in the leg by a hunter and on a retreat she had

328
00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:55,440
fought through that wound the rest of the trip.

329
00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:57,400
She is strong as hell.

330
00:16:57,400 --> 00:17:00,920
How did a hunter accidentally shoot a person?

331
00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:03,080
I don't even know that part.

332
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:07,440
I feel like that would be a little difficult.

333
00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:16,360
That is grounds for, you know, some hefty fines, but I can say that my girl Luda, she

334
00:17:16,360 --> 00:17:17,360
made it through.

335
00:17:17,360 --> 00:17:18,360
She a bad bitch.

336
00:17:18,360 --> 00:17:19,360
She a bad bitch.

337
00:17:19,360 --> 00:17:23,440
I needed to go be friends with Miss Maria from last episode.

338
00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:26,960
Let me tell you, these women, these women do it for me.

339
00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:29,960
All I'm saying is.

340
00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:31,560
I love it.

341
00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:37,080
So then that takes us to the next student who is a fifth student.

342
00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:39,080
His name was Rustam Salabhitan.

343
00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:40,080
Yeah.

344
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:41,080
Okay.

345
00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:42,080
We're going to keep going.

346
00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:43,080
I would hope.

347
00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:47,400
So Rustam had been the most athletic in the group of nine.

348
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:52,800
He mostly spent any spare time outside of his studies training for the harsh climates

349
00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:54,520
and just travels in general.

350
00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:59,440
So he was very knowledgeable about how to stay, you know, alive.

351
00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:05,160
And the whole point of me even telling you the reasons is because let me get closer and

352
00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:08,440
closer into the reasons that they were found.

353
00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:12,560
It's going to, it's going to be strange because people are again, students that know how to

354
00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:16,200
survive the wilderness and the fact that they're found the way they were.

355
00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:18,360
They have training experience.

356
00:18:18,360 --> 00:18:25,200
You don't just go out to a mountain climb and not climb, but like a mountain hike, not

357
00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:26,200
knowing what to do.

358
00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:28,800
It's one of those things you just need to know how to do if you're going to do it.

359
00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:30,080
And they knew how to do it.

360
00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:31,600
Like they had done it before.

361
00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:32,600
Yeah.

362
00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:33,600
For years.

363
00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:35,120
They knew things like.

364
00:18:35,120 --> 00:18:37,080
Yeah, definitely.

365
00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:39,200
They were experienced.

366
00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:43,360
So that brings us to Sasha Kulitoba.

367
00:18:43,360 --> 00:18:48,200
He was a sixth student of the group and he was pretty reserved and to himself, but was

368
00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:51,160
always a huge contributor to his group.

369
00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:59,560
And then we have the seventh and the oldest, which was 37 year old Simon Zolo Torgov.

370
00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:05,720
Simon, uh, some, some young pieces such hurt names.

371
00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:07,760
I'm so sorry.

372
00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:13,960
Sam, you know, on Sam, you know, okay, I got it.

373
00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:20,200
Then we have the seventh and the oldest of the group, which was 37 year old, same on

374
00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:28,080
Zola Grav and same on that was the old kind of odd man out of the group.

375
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:32,200
He hadn't known any of the other students prior to their expeditions.

376
00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:34,280
So what, sorry to cut you off.

377
00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:35,280
No, go ahead.

378
00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:36,800
So what are the ages of all of them?

379
00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:37,800
So we have 37.

380
00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:38,880
So they're all in their young twenties.

381
00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:42,760
Like they're all except the only one that isn't is some, a semi on.

382
00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:43,760
He is 37.

383
00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:44,760
37.

384
00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:45,760
Yeah.

385
00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:47,640
So he's a student still at this college.

386
00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:48,640
Okay.

387
00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:53,520
And pretty much just like any college you go to, there's various ranges of ages, but

388
00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:57,560
the thing about all these people actually that are, were going on this expedition was

389
00:19:57,560 --> 00:19:58,560
that they're all friends.

390
00:19:58,560 --> 00:19:59,560
Yeah.

391
00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:00,760
And then he's just kind of random.

392
00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:02,000
He was the on and out.

393
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:03,000
Yeah.

394
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:07,320
So it was kind of weird at first because he hadn't known anybody.

395
00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:11,960
He was kind of there and he really wanted to go on this expedition for extra credit.

396
00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:17,000
So he actually had joined this group a couple of weeks before and he was like, Hey, you know,

397
00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:19,280
can I come on this expedition with you guys?

398
00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:20,920
I know what to do.

399
00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:21,960
They're like, yeah, why not?

400
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:22,960
They need 10 members.

401
00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:25,720
So they were like, come on and he was like, cool.

402
00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:30,080
So they brought him in and they actually all got along pretty well.

403
00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:31,160
They all just became friends.

404
00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:32,160
What a way.

405
00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:37,880
Um, you will see pictures and I might say this again, not to be repetitive, but, um, there

406
00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:45,320
are so many pictures throughout this expedition that the group took and it's just so chilling

407
00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:51,520
to look at because you look at these pictures knowing that something very, very bad happens

408
00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:54,720
only days before these pictures have been taken.

409
00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:56,720
I mean, days after these pictures were taken.

410
00:20:56,720 --> 00:21:02,880
So it's just, it's a, it's a, it's a very chilling just scene just to look at and they

411
00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:05,520
all look so happy throughout it too.

412
00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:11,520
And again, Igor was the leader of what would be a truly awful expedition and he lived and

413
00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:17,840
breathed tourism, although Simon had been a soldier in the world with World War two.

414
00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:24,120
So if the unlikely time came, he know enough about protecting himself and also stage and

415
00:21:24,120 --> 00:21:26,680
staying alive and harsh conditions.

416
00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:29,640
That's something he will also know as a soldier.

417
00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:36,200
I, you know, and so although no one in the group really knew him at first, like I said,

418
00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:38,480
they accepted him like they're like he was family.

419
00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:41,160
So it was really nice for that reason.

420
00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:45,240
Then we have Nikolai Vibhoy Riknolay.

421
00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:46,560
I tried.

422
00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:51,640
He had been the youngest but carried himself to be more of the serious and mature one in

423
00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:52,840
the group.

424
00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:56,400
He was closest to Simon, who was the 37 year old.

425
00:21:56,400 --> 00:22:01,760
And according to their diaries or the group's diary that was later found, they just really

426
00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:03,960
became good friends for the most part.

427
00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:07,160
And I was just so sad because you look at, again, you look at these pictures, I'll post

428
00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:12,200
on my Instagram and it's just, it just breaks your heart because they all look happy and

429
00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:16,880
they all look so innocent and it's like, damn, this is, it gets you.

430
00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:17,880
It really does.

431
00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:19,840
And finally, Yuri.

432
00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:20,840
Shit.

433
00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:22,160
This is really hard.

434
00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:23,160
Crevon Esquico.

435
00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:29,000
I really tried to sound that one out.

436
00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:30,320
Yuri was another one.

437
00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:32,480
He was the other Yuri in this group.

438
00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:39,200
He at the time was 23 years old and was the most comedic out of the bunch.

439
00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:46,000
His numerous side even almost got their trip to the Ural Mountains canceled actually.

440
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:51,640
When the group had actually been waiting for their next train, Yuri had asked Lyda for

441
00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:55,640
some cash to get coffee from the cafe.

442
00:22:55,640 --> 00:23:01,360
Since Lyda held all the money for the trip, he's that's the reason he asked and she ironically

443
00:23:01,360 --> 00:23:05,120
just told him no, don't know why, but she did.

444
00:23:05,120 --> 00:23:10,880
And so he literally just grabs a cup and to start walking around the station with a cup

445
00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:13,600
and just he starts singing for change.

446
00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:19,320
And so as wholesome as cute as this is, the police caught him doing this and attempted

447
00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:21,000
to arrest him for doing it.

448
00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:26,760
Yeah, hand handling for duplicity or double debt dealing, I guess, but you see this happening.

449
00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:33,480
And so the group kind of goes out their way to kind of protect, like kind of defend him

450
00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:34,840
and Yuri's defense.

451
00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:39,000
So these officers and college kids are just having it altercation in the middle of a train

452
00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:40,840
station.

453
00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:46,200
And have in mind this is a very heroic and brave action because around this time in the

454
00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:51,260
Soviet Union, police forces were not forces to be messed with at all.

455
00:23:51,260 --> 00:23:55,840
So eventually the police officers let him and the group off of the warning and they

456
00:23:55,840 --> 00:24:01,520
be able to carry on with their course to the mountains where we know something eventually

457
00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:04,000
nothing good really happens out of that.

458
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:07,840
So yeah, really messed up.

459
00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:08,840
Yeah.

460
00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:14,560
Well, now I did list nine members of this group, but there is a 10th member and I did

461
00:24:14,560 --> 00:24:16,120
say that at the beginning.

462
00:24:16,120 --> 00:24:19,080
His name was and I lied.

463
00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:20,080
There's three years.

464
00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:22,480
There's three Uries in the story.

465
00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:23,960
Now you forget about the third year.

466
00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:25,920
I forgot about the third year.

467
00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:28,360
There's a Yuri Yodan.

468
00:24:28,360 --> 00:24:34,040
From what sources have to say about Yuri Yodan was that he was probably the most kind, hearted,

469
00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:37,540
gentle, modest person of the group actually.

470
00:24:37,540 --> 00:24:40,360
And just looking at the photos of this guy tells it all.

471
00:24:40,360 --> 00:24:46,320
He had very kind eyes and gentle, gentle smile and you could just want to be his friend.

472
00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:48,480
He was just so sweet looking.

473
00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:50,880
And it's just.

474
00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:55,600
So as a 10 hikers had eventually went from the train to a truck, several of the students

475
00:24:55,600 --> 00:25:00,240
including Yuri Yodan sat in the bed of the truck and already Yuri Yodan had suffered

476
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:05,040
from radicalitis, which is a disease of the root of a nerve.

477
00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:10,280
So already knowing it could potentially be a problem during the trip, he just tried to

478
00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:11,440
brush it off.

479
00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:17,400
But the caring of just happy equipment throughout it did not happen at all.

480
00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:22,080
Once again, because it is relevant to the story, when you go and you hike up a side

481
00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:26,080
of a mountain below zero weather, you'll need layers.

482
00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:27,760
Oh yeah, no kidding.

483
00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:30,760
It's gonna, Tuesday night, Tuesday is gonna, it's gonna cause frostbite.

484
00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:32,280
It's gonna cause hypothermia.

485
00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:35,200
That little Canadian goose ain't gonna do much for you.

486
00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:36,360
It's really not.

487
00:25:36,360 --> 00:25:37,360
It's really not.

488
00:25:37,360 --> 00:25:38,360
No, not at all.

489
00:25:38,360 --> 00:25:41,280
The freezing temperatures, you better layer that up.

490
00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:42,280
You layer it.

491
00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:43,280
Yes.

492
00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:44,920
Some long johns, some long johns.

493
00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:46,680
Three pairs of long johns.

494
00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:47,680
One pair of pants.

495
00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:49,680
Five pairs of jackets.

496
00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:50,680
Five socks.

497
00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:54,520
Cause let me tell you, the minute your pinky toes start hurting, it's gone.

498
00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:55,520
It's over.

499
00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:56,520
Hypothermia.

500
00:25:56,520 --> 00:25:57,520
It's over.

501
00:25:57,520 --> 00:25:58,520
It's gotcha.

502
00:25:58,520 --> 00:25:59,520
Over.

503
00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:07,840
So maybe after an hour or two later of driving to the central point to start hiking, the

504
00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:11,800
snow really got more dense and harder to get through.

505
00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:15,800
And they are just trying to really not get stuck into the snow.

506
00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:18,440
The roads were just barely paved.

507
00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:24,800
And they even really helped some guys pass by that were stuck in the pile of snow themselves

508
00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:25,800
with their trucks.

509
00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:28,120
So that was just so nice of them to do in the first place.

510
00:26:28,120 --> 00:26:30,840
I would like to add to this.

511
00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:35,160
I mean, this is a lot worse than let's say Michigan weather, but for all the people who

512
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:39,040
don't deal with snow, driving in snow is literally so.

513
00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:40,120
Oh, it's terrible.

514
00:26:40,120 --> 00:26:43,980
It can be very difficult and it can be very scary.

515
00:26:43,980 --> 00:26:48,800
So imagine for the Michiganders out there for all of our friends and family listening,

516
00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:50,680
imagine Michigan, but like on crack.

517
00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:51,680
Yeah.

518
00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:52,680
With the snow.

519
00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:53,680
Pretty much what this is.

520
00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:54,680
Yeah.

521
00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:55,680
You're right on point there.

522
00:26:55,680 --> 00:27:00,520
I can't imagine having to go through the Ural Mountains with a truck, not unless any kind

523
00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:02,120
of car or myself.

524
00:27:02,120 --> 00:27:03,120
Imagine a little.

525
00:27:03,120 --> 00:27:04,120
Yeah.

526
00:27:04,120 --> 00:27:05,120
Can imagine.

527
00:27:05,120 --> 00:27:07,320
I get scared just driving alone here.

528
00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:11,440
So the fact that they have that going on truly terrifying.

529
00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:16,160
And like I said, they were nice enough to help a group of guys that were stuck themselves

530
00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:18,960
and it's just so, it's just so innocent.

531
00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:20,480
I love it.

532
00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:25,920
The 10 group members temporarily stopped at a log admin site called settlement 41, which

533
00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:29,520
is a kind of like a rest stop for hikers.

534
00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:33,240
And the men that had worked on this property expected their rival.

535
00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:35,800
So they helped them settle in and everything.

536
00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:41,800
Fortunately, so probably the last time that anyone would see this group alive.

537
00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:47,400
The next day, the 10 students woke up and left their truck to travel to the next cabin

538
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:49,400
settlement on foot.

539
00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:56,440
This next stretch of trail had taken them literally seven hours to ski hike through.

540
00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:58,240
Seven hours of ski hiking.

541
00:27:58,240 --> 00:27:59,640
That's like a whole shift.

542
00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:00,640
Oh my God.

543
00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:03,760
Yeah, it really is through the snow, through the tundra.

544
00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:06,640
And okay, so let's imagine that.

545
00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:11,400
Now let's imagine trying to walk through snow.

546
00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:14,360
Now times that by the skis.

547
00:28:14,360 --> 00:28:16,520
So now you're carrying a little weight on your feet.

548
00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:17,520
That is true.

549
00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:19,020
In the bags, in the stuff you're carrying.

550
00:28:19,020 --> 00:28:20,800
That by the shit you're carrying.

551
00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:23,400
Now times that through dense snow.

552
00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:27,360
Like you're not walking like just, you know, on a little bit of snow.

553
00:28:27,360 --> 00:28:28,360
No.

554
00:28:28,360 --> 00:28:29,360
Like you're like in there.

555
00:28:29,360 --> 00:28:30,360
You're trucking through that shit.

556
00:28:30,360 --> 00:28:36,160
So not only like no wonder it took seven hours because you can't walk through it fast.

557
00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:37,160
That's a good point.

558
00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:38,920
Like there's no way you can walk through that fast.

559
00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:41,600
Like you were like out in these trenches.

560
00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:42,600
Yeah.

561
00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:46,000
See, this is why you're my, this is why you're my co-host here.

562
00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:47,000
You're so funny.

563
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:48,000
You're so smart.

564
00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:50,160
I'll be bringing up the good points.

565
00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:51,160
You'd be bringing up those facts.

566
00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:52,160
And the commentary.

567
00:28:52,160 --> 00:28:54,480
I don't even think about that kind of stuff.

568
00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:55,480
And the commentary.

569
00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:56,480
You're so funny.

570
00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:57,480
Love.

571
00:28:57,480 --> 00:28:58,480
L-O-L.

572
00:28:58,480 --> 00:28:59,480
L-O-L.

573
00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:00,480
Love.

574
00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:01,480
Love.

575
00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:02,480
All right.

576
00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:06,720
So, like I said, yeah, the 10 students had woke up.

577
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:13,360
They left their truck to travel through this tundra for seven hours on skis.

578
00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:19,560
And now, literally, now the cabin settlement they had reached after the first one they

579
00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:22,760
had initially went to was not like the same thing.

580
00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:28,360
This next little cabin structure that they ran into was literally right out the movie

581
00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:31,320
wrong turn or something because it was terrifying.

582
00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:36,960
The cabins were abandoned for seven years prior and it had been forced labor camps for

583
00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:38,440
criminals.

584
00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:43,920
And when the students reached it, it was a very rundown set of cabins and it just sat

585
00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:46,280
frozen just for years.

586
00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:49,000
Wait, go back forced labor camps?

587
00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:50,000
Yeah.

588
00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:51,000
Yeah.

589
00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:54,600
For seven years prior, it had been just abandoned like that too.

590
00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:56,920
So like I said, something out of a horror movie.

591
00:29:56,920 --> 00:29:57,920
Yeah, okay.

592
00:29:57,920 --> 00:29:58,920
It was insanely creepy.

593
00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:02,120
And most of the cabins were completely damaged.

594
00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:06,200
So they had to end up bearing with one that was still intact.

595
00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:13,400
But this is when Yuri Yodin really started to getting a pain in his leg from the radical

596
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:15,960
Ida side I talked about earlier.

597
00:30:15,960 --> 00:30:20,240
And so his psychotic, is it psychotic nerve?

598
00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:22,080
Had became inflamed.

599
00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:27,400
So he was very heartbroken because he couldn't go on with the rest of the group.

600
00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:32,360
And so the rest of the group and him had ended up having to find a first aid post that they

601
00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:37,640
had traveled past a couple of days back and just ended up dropping them off.

602
00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:41,400
And Yuri had set his goodbyes.

603
00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:48,000
Excited to see the photos when they returned and Yuri would later find out that he'd be

604
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:51,000
the only one that would return from this expedition alive.

605
00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:55,160
So it's truly heartbreaking.

606
00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:57,520
I don't remember that there was a survivor.

607
00:30:57,520 --> 00:30:59,320
Yeah, there was one survivor.

608
00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:03,680
I know this case, but I feel like I never actually really researched into it.

609
00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:05,960
And I actually didn't know that there was one survivor.

610
00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:06,960
Yeah, there was.

611
00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:15,760
Imagine, imagine being like, because of your, you know, your disfunctionality is I don't

612
00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:16,760
know what you want to call it.

613
00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:17,760
Is that a good term?

614
00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:19,680
That's so bad.

615
00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:25,480
I guess because of, you know, something that's going on with you, you know, medical wise,

616
00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:27,960
keeps you from going on the trip you really want to go to.

617
00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:30,240
Oh, girl on at least.

618
00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:32,200
And it saves your life.

619
00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:34,680
Like wait, he didn't go.

620
00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:36,440
Oh, so he was.

621
00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:40,880
So he was there on the expedition, but when they got into a certain point because of his

622
00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:41,880
like, oh, he turned around.

623
00:31:41,880 --> 00:31:42,880
Okay.

624
00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:43,880
Yeah, I'm sorry.

625
00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:45,400
I was like, like him for a second.

626
00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:46,400
No, it's okay.

627
00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:47,400
Okay, okay, okay.

628
00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:48,400
I see.

629
00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:49,400
So he like got to a certain point and then left.

630
00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:50,400
I don't know what happened.

631
00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:51,400
Okay.

632
00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:52,400
So that doesn't really count.

633
00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:53,400
Like, yes, he survived.

634
00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:54,400
Yeah.

635
00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:55,400
But he didn't actually survive.

636
00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:57,760
He didn't actually get to the point that way.

637
00:31:57,760 --> 00:31:59,760
Yeah, like there was no survival.

638
00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:00,760
He just left.

639
00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:01,760
Yeah.

640
00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:02,760
But before anything happened, right?

641
00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:04,000
Yeah, due to his radicalitis.

642
00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:05,000
Yeah.

643
00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:07,040
So good for him.

644
00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:09,760
I'm glad he was living to tell a story.

645
00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:15,320
Listen, I would not wish a medical condition on anybody, but who knew it could help.

646
00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:16,320
He's probably happy.

647
00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:17,320
He had that medical condition.

648
00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:18,320
Right.

649
00:32:18,320 --> 00:32:19,320
For that specific thing.

650
00:32:19,320 --> 00:32:23,320
And I mean, for the moment, yeah, it did suck because I know he really wanted to be there

651
00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:25,640
with his friends because again, these are all friends.

652
00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:28,320
They're all, they all know each other for the most part.

653
00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:32,560
And so obviously for your friend to not be able to join you on a trip for the rest of

654
00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:36,000
the way and have to turn around.

655
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:40,520
But it wasn't for Yuri having this radicalitis.

656
00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:42,640
He definitely was not survived.

657
00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:43,640
So yeah.

658
00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:45,640
There's no way that he would have.

659
00:32:45,640 --> 00:32:48,280
Yeah, he might have saved them or could have saved them.

660
00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:50,400
Maybe the way they were found.

661
00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:52,400
Yeah, like we need to get to that point.

662
00:32:52,400 --> 00:32:55,560
So you guys can like know what we're talking about right now.

663
00:32:55,560 --> 00:32:59,400
So now there are nine members of the group and they continue to ski up the hike after

664
00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:01,360
dropping Yuri off.

665
00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:08,440
They had gotten to a river called River Lozva around 5 30 PM and the group just decides to

666
00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:12,320
set up camp finally using the tents that they have brought.

667
00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:13,320
Sight note real quick.

668
00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:17,720
Igor, the one leading the group, bought a camera and there were two others.

669
00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:22,480
I can't remember who, but there are two other members that had ended up bringing cameras

670
00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:23,640
with them.

671
00:33:23,640 --> 00:33:29,360
And like I said before, these students took so many pictures that we'll post definitely

672
00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:30,760
on our Instagram and all.

673
00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:37,720
But keep that in mind because it kind of comes back a little later with these conspiracies.

674
00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:39,440
So just keep that in mind.

675
00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:45,520
Anywho, Lita had documented in the group's diary how they stopped to set up camp, have

676
00:33:45,520 --> 00:33:51,800
dinner, make a fire and just sing songs and tell stories to each other, which is again,

677
00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:52,800
so freaking wholesome.

678
00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:55,720
Can we talk about how she has a group diary?

679
00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:56,720
That's so cute.

680
00:33:56,720 --> 00:33:57,720
I know.

681
00:33:57,720 --> 00:33:58,720
It was like a group diary too.

682
00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:01,440
So they all like made notes in it throughout the trip.

683
00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:10,400
So I think it would be like if it was, let's say specifically Lita who want to say something,

684
00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:14,240
she would put her name Lita and then they would put the date and then they would put

685
00:34:14,240 --> 00:34:15,240
their doing.

686
00:34:15,240 --> 00:34:16,240
Like a little excerpt.

687
00:34:16,240 --> 00:34:17,240
Yeah, a little excerpt.

688
00:34:17,240 --> 00:34:18,240
Yeah.

689
00:34:18,240 --> 00:34:23,800
And this was also found later on, which it's so good that they like doc.

690
00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:25,160
Well, I mean, not that it did much.

691
00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:29,800
I feel like for the investigation, but it definitely helped make for this documented

692
00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:32,000
and had a lot of pictures and stuff.

693
00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:34,680
And yeah, that they like left something behind, I guess.

694
00:34:34,680 --> 00:34:35,680
Definitely.

695
00:34:35,680 --> 00:34:36,680
Definitely.

696
00:34:36,680 --> 00:34:37,680
Maybe for the family.

697
00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:38,680
It's probably good.

698
00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:43,400
Have to have something at least to know what led up to it and definitely maybe even helped

699
00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:48,280
to even get to the certain point that that maybe investigators got to.

700
00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:52,400
And just have a piece of them to like all the last smiling pictures.

701
00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:53,640
Yeah, definitely.

702
00:34:53,640 --> 00:34:54,640
Definitely.

703
00:34:54,640 --> 00:34:57,640
January 30th.

704
00:34:57,640 --> 00:35:03,720
Now miles and miles away from any civilization, Igor documents that the attempts have only

705
00:35:03,720 --> 00:35:09,880
grew worse and the group continues to stop, set up camp and rest.

706
00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:14,600
But this documentation would be the last journal entry in that diary.

707
00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:16,120
I don't know.

708
00:35:16,120 --> 00:35:17,120
Yeah.

709
00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:20,800
So based on the found evidence, they staffed any and this is kind of smart.

710
00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:25,840
They saw some food and the snow along the trail at like bigger trees or trees that kind

711
00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:28,200
of look weird or anything like that.

712
00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:31,840
So it would take some of the weight off of their shoulders, but they will also have food

713
00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:33,960
when they would come back down the mountain.

714
00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:35,440
So that's a smart idea.

715
00:35:35,440 --> 00:35:37,720
Wouldn't think about that.

716
00:35:37,720 --> 00:35:41,560
Only a mile and a half into their journey, the group had to set up camp because it was

717
00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:47,080
so hard to walk through the snow and the blizzard that had started that they just couldn't go

718
00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:48,360
any further that day.

719
00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:55,840
So from the evening of January 30th to February 2nd would remain uncounted for.

720
00:35:55,840 --> 00:36:04,560
Oh, so the group had been initially scheduled to return to Yida, Urineburg to school on

721
00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:05,560
February 12th.

722
00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:13,120
And keep in mind, they were not heard from after initially leaving in January.

723
00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:18,320
So this is like weeks later that they were supposed to be home, but no one was super

724
00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:24,080
alarmed when they didn't return right away because the families of this group were, they

725
00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:29,880
knew that, you know, sometimes things get delayed when it comes to like tracking through

726
00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:33,440
snow when you're going up the mountain, things like that, you know, you don't always come

727
00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:36,160
back right away or right on time like you're supposed to.

728
00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:37,680
Yeah, a lot of things go wrong.

729
00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:40,080
A lot of things go wrong and unplanned for.

730
00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:41,080
Yeah.

731
00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:43,960
And look at the time, the time period, like you're not going to have phones.

732
00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:45,120
We're in the 50s, right?

733
00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:49,080
Yeah, you're not going to have that, you're not going to have a phone that just be that,

734
00:36:49,080 --> 00:36:50,680
you know, hey mom, I'm going to be late.

735
00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:52,880
Also, I don't know if it would work in the mountains.

736
00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:53,880
No, it would not.

737
00:36:53,880 --> 00:36:57,800
I was like, I feel like reception in the mountains would be kind of spotty.

738
00:36:57,800 --> 00:36:58,800
Maybe.

739
00:36:58,800 --> 00:36:59,800
If any.

740
00:36:59,800 --> 00:37:00,800
You know, maybe.

741
00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:01,800
Verizon, what you think?

742
00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:02,800
Yeah, maybe Verizon.

743
00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:07,160
That wasn't an ad, by the way.

744
00:37:07,160 --> 00:37:08,160
Not sponsored.

745
00:37:08,160 --> 00:37:09,160
Not sponsored.

746
00:37:09,160 --> 00:37:16,000
So, like we said, there were group delays and they started to turn into weeks.

747
00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:22,320
People did start to get worried and the first person to really reach out to anyone was Sasha,

748
00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:28,680
Sasha's sister who had came forward to the university and explorers club and she was

749
00:37:28,680 --> 00:37:33,000
just saying, you know, hey, I haven't heard from my little brother, is there, you know,

750
00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:34,000
is he around?

751
00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:35,400
Has he backed safely?

752
00:37:35,400 --> 00:37:37,120
Things like that.

753
00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:40,440
This goal was like, we haven't heard from them.

754
00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:44,160
So that's when the panic begins and starts to break out.

755
00:37:44,160 --> 00:37:50,520
On February 24th, a week and a half after the group should have been returned from home,

756
00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:56,680
the first team of a search and rescue was sent to look for this group of people via helicopter.

757
00:37:56,680 --> 00:38:01,520
While finding these students would not be an easy task because no one had specific coordinates

758
00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:07,040
of where the group would be in this gigantic mountain of snow, the search parties consisted

759
00:38:07,040 --> 00:38:13,280
of other students, a part of the university explorers club, military officials and professional

760
00:38:13,280 --> 00:38:19,360
mountain hikers, but it still just took days and days before they would find the first

761
00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:20,560
clue.

762
00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:28,640
On February 26th, student searchers passing by had spotted a damaged tent partially covered

763
00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:29,960
in snow.

764
00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:35,240
The tent had been noticeably ripped open with a knife from the inside out as if someone

765
00:38:35,240 --> 00:38:37,760
had tried to escape from it.

766
00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:42,160
Not far from the tent was a flashlight sitting on top of the snow.

767
00:38:42,160 --> 00:38:47,040
So the tent was covered in snow, but the flashlight they had found was seen sitting right on top

768
00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:50,920
of the snow as if it was recently dropped.

769
00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:53,000
This is on topic but off topic.

770
00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:58,080
I wonder how they can tell how the tent was cut from the inside instead of the outside.

771
00:38:58,080 --> 00:38:59,240
I wonder...

772
00:38:59,240 --> 00:39:00,240
I think it was...

773
00:39:00,240 --> 00:39:04,560
Okay, don't take my word for this because I don't know, but I think based on, in just

774
00:39:04,560 --> 00:39:09,000
this case alone, I think when they had taken the...

775
00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:13,920
Later on they'd taken the tent and they were like looking at it for any signs of...

776
00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:14,920
Yeah.

777
00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:17,240
I think they could tell because...

778
00:39:17,240 --> 00:39:18,320
One of the fibers maybe?

779
00:39:18,320 --> 00:39:21,960
The fibers were out versus in, if you know what I mean.

780
00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:25,800
So they kind of folded out like as if someone was cutting from the outside.

781
00:39:25,800 --> 00:39:29,600
So yeah, they could tell that it looked like someone was trying to escape out of the tent

782
00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:36,600
and it's weird because again, I said in the beginning and I'm going to say it again,

783
00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:40,800
no one confronted anyone about there being an avalanche.

784
00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:44,600
Like no one said anything about there being an avalanche when they looked at the scene.

785
00:39:44,600 --> 00:39:51,880
No one said anything about there being any kind of like big, you know, things that could,

786
00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:54,880
you know, kill a person obviously other than the blizzard.

787
00:39:54,880 --> 00:40:00,160
But again, when we get to that part, it's going to be a little weird because even in

788
00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:04,120
a blizzard, you probably would get frostbite, you would probably get hyperthermia, you

789
00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:05,120
would freeze.

790
00:40:05,120 --> 00:40:06,360
They weren't found just like that.

791
00:40:06,360 --> 00:40:13,400
So it's weird and it also makes you wonder like why would someone use a knife to cut

792
00:40:13,400 --> 00:40:16,760
out of a tent if they have stuck in there.

793
00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:17,760
Yeah.

794
00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:21,640
If they're stuck in there or something like they have they have the zipper to get out.

795
00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:27,320
Why did they use that instead of yeah, you know, you know, fair question.

796
00:40:27,320 --> 00:40:35,240
Inside the torn tent were found food supplies and bags unfolded blankets and under the blankets

797
00:40:35,240 --> 00:40:41,480
were their quilted jackets, storm jackets, boots and other winter clothes.

798
00:40:41,480 --> 00:40:42,480
Weird.

799
00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:45,920
Again, you would need that kind of thing if you're going to be in the tundra.

800
00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:49,480
Yeah, like to wear it off your body, even asleep.

801
00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:51,480
Like you would need that to stay warm.

802
00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:57,560
Maybe not the shoes, but I could see you would need the shoes on or something.

803
00:40:57,560 --> 00:41:00,080
But just seeing how you look at it.

804
00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:06,800
I mean, if you're someone that likes to do this for a living and you go out camping in

805
00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:10,920
the tent and the blizzard and the snow and you do mountain climbing stuff, if you know

806
00:41:10,920 --> 00:41:12,720
this kind of stuff, let us know.

807
00:41:12,720 --> 00:41:13,720
It's interesting.

808
00:41:13,720 --> 00:41:18,360
I would probably see what my clothes on just I would do and it's weird that they find

809
00:41:18,360 --> 00:41:21,200
all of everyone's stuff like just under the covers like that.

810
00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:27,160
So, so the search parties decide to stay in that area to hopefully still find at least

811
00:41:27,160 --> 00:41:30,160
at least one of the nine students out there.

812
00:41:30,160 --> 00:41:36,200
The next day, a search group finds another clue about 20 miles away from where their

813
00:41:36,200 --> 00:41:37,480
tent was found.

814
00:41:37,480 --> 00:41:40,400
These searchers find footprints in the snow.

815
00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:42,760
The shoe prints footprints.

816
00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:47,280
The footprints tracks were found next to each other in pairs.

817
00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:51,440
So it's as if people are walking side by side to each other and the evidence has shown

818
00:41:51,440 --> 00:41:53,880
that these prints didn't show any sign of running.

819
00:41:53,880 --> 00:41:57,880
So it literally was as if they're just walking through the snow barefoot.

820
00:41:57,880 --> 00:42:01,720
So basically you look like these people are walking barefoot together from the campsite

821
00:42:01,720 --> 00:42:06,240
and then the tracks spread apart going in different directions.

822
00:42:06,240 --> 00:42:12,680
Shows down the slope from this tent, searchers found the frozen bodies of Yuri Dori Shinko

823
00:42:12,680 --> 00:42:15,120
and Yuri Kruvishinko.

824
00:42:15,120 --> 00:42:20,440
Their bodies were found laying under a cedar tree one mile away from the tent.

825
00:42:20,440 --> 00:42:27,480
The two were found half naked wearing nothing but their checkered shirts and torn underwear.

826
00:42:27,480 --> 00:42:34,080
A thousand feet away from that tree, another search party finds the cold frozen body of

827
00:42:34,080 --> 00:42:38,280
a teen member Igor Dyatlov.

828
00:42:38,280 --> 00:42:46,160
He was fully clothed only wearing light clothes, no jacket, under a birch tree wearing no shoes.

829
00:42:46,160 --> 00:42:51,920
His body was facing the tent indicating that he anticipated to return to the tent.

830
00:42:51,920 --> 00:43:01,480
Now beware, don't suggest it, but there are pictures online if you are so intrigued to

831
00:43:01,480 --> 00:43:02,600
look at those.

832
00:43:02,600 --> 00:43:08,360
I am not a huge fan of looking at corpses, but the many look it up, it's there, it's

833
00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:11,880
all over the internet and it's pretty gruesome.

834
00:43:11,880 --> 00:43:14,880
So just forewarning.

835
00:43:14,880 --> 00:43:21,040
350 meters further uphill was the body of Zina Komagrov.

836
00:43:21,040 --> 00:43:28,920
The one that Igor really liked by the way and had eyes for Yuri so that's that person.

837
00:43:28,920 --> 00:43:35,040
Zina was found buried in snow laying sideways in the fetal position which is kind of, I

838
00:43:35,040 --> 00:43:40,080
mean makes sense if you're kind of trying to keep warrant here but do that in the fetal

839
00:43:40,080 --> 00:43:41,400
position.

840
00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:45,160
She was not wearing shoes, a jacket or gloves at all.

841
00:43:45,160 --> 00:43:50,440
So this is another person not wearing shoes, doesn't have a jacket on, it's weird.

842
00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:54,680
So sadly because of the harsh temps and how deep the snow was, the search party couldn't

843
00:43:54,680 --> 00:44:00,920
really look for any others, but then on March 5th, searchers recovered the body of Rustam

844
00:44:00,920 --> 00:44:03,040
Solobun.

845
00:44:03,040 --> 00:44:09,160
His body was faced down in the snow facing the tent indicating he tried to also return

846
00:44:09,160 --> 00:44:10,160
to the campsites.

847
00:44:10,160 --> 00:44:15,480
Five of the nine bodies were found and sent to the autopsy professional and the final

848
00:44:15,480 --> 00:44:19,560
four were the hardest and probably the scariest to encounter.

849
00:44:19,560 --> 00:44:24,680
So before moving on to the next set of hikers, between the period of finding the first five

850
00:44:24,680 --> 00:44:30,640
students and the last four students, an autopsy for the first five was concluded.

851
00:44:30,640 --> 00:44:34,640
All five of these students suffered from various cuts and bruises.

852
00:44:34,640 --> 00:44:40,680
There was bruising, cuts and abrasions to the nose, cheeks, eyebrows, knuckles, and

853
00:44:40,680 --> 00:44:45,800
back of the hands and all five had similar cuts to themselves.

854
00:44:45,800 --> 00:44:51,160
So again, they were found in different places, but all found with similar cuts.

855
00:44:51,160 --> 00:44:56,040
The final autopsy deemed the cause of death being hypothermia.

856
00:44:56,040 --> 00:44:58,000
So questionable.

857
00:44:58,000 --> 00:45:02,560
Professionals of this mountain was a part of the search and were adamant that there

858
00:45:02,560 --> 00:45:05,320
was no sign of an avalanche like I had said.

859
00:45:05,320 --> 00:45:08,920
So later their skis were also found sitting upright.

860
00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:10,760
I'm talking about the students.

861
00:45:10,760 --> 00:45:13,560
And so when I say upright, they're just sitting in the snow.

862
00:45:13,560 --> 00:45:19,320
And so you can obviously tell by an avalanche if an avalanche hat come down, their skis would

863
00:45:19,320 --> 00:45:22,120
not be there sitting upright the way they were.

864
00:45:22,120 --> 00:45:26,440
So that was one hit that this was not the due or cause of an avalanche.

865
00:45:26,440 --> 00:45:31,000
And the second thing was that there was no sign of debris or anything anywhere.

866
00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:34,120
So another kind of weird coincidence.

867
00:45:34,120 --> 00:45:39,680
And it's weird because again, you'll see in the minute that the government had deemed

868
00:45:39,680 --> 00:45:43,440
it maybe to be an avalanche or something of the sorts.

869
00:45:43,440 --> 00:45:48,600
So three months go by because the search teams had to wait to find anything else till the

870
00:45:48,600 --> 00:45:50,440
snow started to melt.

871
00:45:50,440 --> 00:45:55,960
A mancy native, which mancy tribes also were residing in the lower mountains.

872
00:45:55,960 --> 00:46:02,160
They're very known to be in this area, was walking his dog fairly close to where the

873
00:46:02,160 --> 00:46:06,440
searchers found the two Uries under the cedar tree.

874
00:46:06,440 --> 00:46:11,760
He spotted it cut up clothing remains and soon after the searchers back on.

875
00:46:11,760 --> 00:46:16,440
Search groups dig through the snow in various areas when one group stumbles upon the body

876
00:46:16,440 --> 00:46:19,160
of Luda Domina.

877
00:46:19,160 --> 00:46:22,440
Her body was laying in a small ravine when they had found her.

878
00:46:22,440 --> 00:46:29,240
Later on in the same area, they find the remaining bodies of Samyon, Nikolai, and Alexander.

879
00:46:29,240 --> 00:46:34,880
What's really weird is in Simmone's frosted hands, they have found a notebook just clenching

880
00:46:34,880 --> 00:46:36,440
his hands.

881
00:46:36,440 --> 00:46:40,200
And when one of the searchers had pulled out of his hands and looked through it, it was

882
00:46:40,200 --> 00:46:42,440
just blank and it was missing pages.

883
00:46:42,440 --> 00:46:44,640
Isn't that weird?

884
00:46:44,640 --> 00:46:46,120
Like weird, right?

885
00:46:46,120 --> 00:46:49,840
Weird that he would be clenching on something that's blank.

886
00:46:49,840 --> 00:46:51,600
Blank with ripped pages.

887
00:46:51,600 --> 00:46:56,400
Also weird that there's blank pages, but it's also weird that there's missing ripped out

888
00:46:56,400 --> 00:47:02,960
pages and like the fact that he's clutching onto it in his final moments, you would think

889
00:47:02,960 --> 00:47:03,960
it'd be something important.

890
00:47:03,960 --> 00:47:04,960
Something there.

891
00:47:04,960 --> 00:47:05,960
Or something there.

892
00:47:05,960 --> 00:47:06,960
That gives me chills.

893
00:47:06,960 --> 00:47:07,960
There's nothing.

894
00:47:07,960 --> 00:47:15,800
But then again, let's think about if pages were torn out after, how would they get it

895
00:47:15,800 --> 00:47:17,800
out of his grasp?

896
00:47:17,800 --> 00:47:23,080
But I mean, maybe the searchers had an easy time getting it out of his grasp and placing

897
00:47:23,080 --> 00:47:24,080
it back.

898
00:47:24,080 --> 00:47:25,080
Yeah.

899
00:47:25,080 --> 00:47:26,080
Huh.

900
00:47:26,080 --> 00:47:27,080
Fishy.

901
00:47:27,080 --> 00:47:28,080
Very fishy.

902
00:47:28,080 --> 00:47:29,920
Definitely weird.

903
00:47:29,920 --> 00:47:36,320
So Nikolai's body was found dressed, but has suffered from a heavy blow to his head.

904
00:47:36,320 --> 00:47:40,360
As if something had been hit like he got hit in the head with something.

905
00:47:40,360 --> 00:47:47,040
Alexander was also reasonably dressed, but an autopsy had shown a undetermined wound

906
00:47:47,040 --> 00:47:49,320
that was behind his right ear.

907
00:47:49,320 --> 00:47:56,440
A misplaced neck and Simone, the oldest of the crew, was found with ski pants and an

908
00:47:56,440 --> 00:48:01,320
underlayer shirt with a partially unbuttoned jacket and boots.

909
00:48:01,320 --> 00:48:09,080
Though it appeared he suffered from a heavy blow to his chest, leaving fractured ribs,

910
00:48:09,080 --> 00:48:14,720
but no sign of what it may have been that would be that heavy to cave in his chest.

911
00:48:14,720 --> 00:48:17,000
So it's weird.

912
00:48:17,000 --> 00:48:23,400
It's again, crazy to think that something could cave in someone's chest, but no sign

913
00:48:23,400 --> 00:48:25,680
of what could have done it.

914
00:48:25,680 --> 00:48:29,280
Even if he did find a body, there was no rock that he had found, nothing like that, but

915
00:48:29,280 --> 00:48:38,080
something had caved in his chest and something had severely damaged Nikolai's body.

916
00:48:38,080 --> 00:48:39,080
So Nikolai's head on something.

917
00:48:39,080 --> 00:48:43,400
I feel like I have a few, well I'm going to wait until it gets into the conspiracies,

918
00:48:43,400 --> 00:48:49,680
but I feel like I have a few theories, some of which we've already debunked in the thing,

919
00:48:49,680 --> 00:48:52,160
but can we really debunk it?

920
00:48:52,160 --> 00:48:58,000
Researchers today can even piece it together and it's still crazy to think that not even

921
00:48:58,000 --> 00:49:02,280
the most biggest professionals in the world can figure out what happened to this case.

922
00:49:02,280 --> 00:49:04,200
So I don't know, it's just so weird.

923
00:49:04,200 --> 00:49:10,400
And I'm thinking too, I mean this case happened in the 50s too, so we have to keep that in

924
00:49:10,400 --> 00:49:20,080
mind with the technology and the manpower, just everything.

925
00:49:20,080 --> 00:49:27,160
I mean and even experience and stuff like that too, I feel like you can't rule out.

926
00:49:27,160 --> 00:49:29,800
You can't rule out anything, honestly I feel like.

927
00:49:29,800 --> 00:49:34,440
I don't know, especially in the 50s I feel like everything they debunked or everything,

928
00:49:34,440 --> 00:49:36,800
like maybe it's just overthinking it.

929
00:49:36,800 --> 00:49:37,800
I think it could be.

930
00:49:37,800 --> 00:49:38,800
I mean it's like a piece of...

931
00:49:38,800 --> 00:49:40,800
Because like what else would this, anyway?

932
00:49:40,800 --> 00:49:42,800
No, no that's a really good point.

933
00:49:42,800 --> 00:49:43,800
I haven't thought about it.

934
00:49:43,800 --> 00:49:45,800
We'll see if it's part of your conspiracy.

935
00:49:45,800 --> 00:49:46,800
Okay, that.

936
00:49:46,800 --> 00:49:56,000
Well, sorry to say it and sorry to do it to y'all, but Leda had one of the worst discoveries.

937
00:49:56,000 --> 00:50:02,840
Suna was found wearing ski pants that were badly damaged by fire and she was found wearing

938
00:50:02,840 --> 00:50:06,200
two sweaters and no jacket or boots.

939
00:50:06,200 --> 00:50:12,640
One foot was covered and wrapped in a sweater, assuming she had tried to keep her feet warm.

940
00:50:12,640 --> 00:50:16,680
Searchers initially found her body face down in the stream of mountain snow.

941
00:50:16,680 --> 00:50:21,280
When the rescue team attempted to recover her body they noticed something very terrifying.

942
00:50:21,280 --> 00:50:23,320
Her eyes are missing.

943
00:50:23,320 --> 00:50:27,800
And with that being said, we are going to end Episode 20 right here.

944
00:50:27,800 --> 00:50:33,560
I am so sorry for that, but we did not realize that Episode 20 was going to be so long.

945
00:50:33,560 --> 00:50:41,080
So if you'd like to hear Episode 21, you can stick with us till next week.

946
00:50:41,080 --> 00:50:42,080
When the light...

947
00:50:42,080 --> 00:51:00,280
Opens Episode 5
