They were just in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Guys agreed wit the locals and horse with drive us to Second Severniy settlement. From 41st settlement it will be about 24 km. We helped grandfather Slava to unload hay from a carriage and waited for the horse (she went to get more hay and wood). We waited until 4:00. Boys started rewriting some song. One guy san beautifully. We heard a number of illegal prison songs (Article 58 counter- revolutionary crimes).
So they heard locals singing counter-revolutionary songs? Hopefully these strident young Communist skiers didn't shoot their mouths off and give the locals a reason to be concerned about what tales they would tell the authorities when they returned from their vacation.
If you accept the flight scenario, then an ensuing melee in the course of fleeing could have caused injuries.
Not really, he had to back out of the hiking trip at the last minute.........so he wasn't there.
LSD experiment, unbeknownst to the victims.........
Vodka...............same as today.............
The 2 comments are interesting. Also, the article says no visible external injuries, but if an animal tore the tongue out of the woman, it would have had to chew thru a hard-frozen (-30F) face to get to it. Or was the tongue removed and the face still intact until discovered at autopsy? I thought I also read her eyeballs were missing.
Lots and lots of questions, and even more missing facts.
Dirt? Rice hulls?
When there is an avalanche the sign of it are very evident.
Obama heard about this and has already apologized to Putin.
lol. In general I agree but often they ferret out stuff others have missed. I first learned of this story over there. They have chewed it end to end more than once. The conclusion is the same. Cover up, drugs, results of bio hazard(s), Soviet special forces or someone just went crazy and did it.
FWIW I was answering a question about if there was a cover up.
Right there is your answer. 2 guys were hitting the available trim, 4 were pounding each other, leaving the one dude left out... and he went apeshit.
Seriously, every conflict within the entire history of life on the planet is about allocation of resources... most often in humans it shows up as conflict regarding mate selection.
“Interesting how the story has grown in the telling. The autopsy reports can be found on the internet, and while most of them were partially disrobed, and none of them had shoes, “hardly any clothing” is an exaggeration.”
Sure but... that doesn’t explain why they ran out into the freezing dark, stark naked and screaming about yetis airdropping on them from alien space ships!!
They were just in the wrong place at the wrong time.
I’ve read that in the process of freezing to death, the victim can feel extremely hot to the point of seeking relief by removing all clothing and footwear. Hallucinations have also been reported by survivors. Perhaps this partially explains what happened to these poor, unfortunate souls.
I donno...
That photo does look staged...
Seven men; two women; "hiking almost a month". Where's the mystery?
Good point- only seems to work on digital pictures -if you put Obama’s birth certificate through ELA it reveals areas of local manipulation.

I suppose if you wanted to get around that they could have printed a high resolution picture then scanned that or taken a picture of that then would have been no signatures in that file.
With digital forensics if you change one byte in a file(picture) it changes multiple parts of the file leaving a number of signatures. Virtually impossible to fake.
I had a problem with a competitor posting photos of fake damage allegedly caused by a product I sell on the internet so I hired these people to prove they were doctored.

There are a number of filters they use to pull out changes to a picture and it would surprise most people that what you can find out - for example
The EXIF file if the file was modified it will have traces of the editing program in my case Photoshop software name was in the EXIF file placed when it was saved in Photoshop.
Editing out photoshop from the EXIF file will make changes elsewhere - no way out for the forger
