Something tells me this might be a fun group to hang out with after hours.
Or maybe not.
I can just imagine when they give out their card - “No, no, man, it’s a real place, honest”.

My neighbors said it was the Iceman that was seeing my wife after I left for work. Now that I have a good look at him, I’ll catch him next time.

Could have been friendly fire in the hunt for that Ibex . . .
“Hey man I got dibs on the Ibex, I mean like stupid Gorg SHOT ME IN THE FRIGGIN BACK over it!”

What a total crap article!
Saying he ate an ibex just hours before is pure BS.
Any fool can see from the photos that the guy hasn't eaten in weeks.

"Using three-dimensional images of his teeth, they showed how Otzi had suffered some form of blunt force trauma to two teeth only a few days before his death"Sounds like the ibex went down swinging...

I still find it hard to imagine that this guy is over 5,000 years old.So, he looks a lot younger to you?
Joking aside, I find it hard to believe that he was naturally mummified, too.
To: freedomlover
Could have been friendly fire in the hunt for that Ibex . . . Yeah... But the broken teeth attests to something close up and personal. And that happened first, right? Otzi escaped one encounter only to be tracked down and shot. Perhaps he was able to avoid his pursuers again only to succumb to the elements.

A hoof or two to the mouth . . . an arrow in the back from one of your buddies needing some more range time . . . the guy was probably glad to take an ice nap . . .

Dental caries traced back to carbohydrates???? Methinks someone is wrong as to the age of this guy unless the local Dairy Queen goes back a LOT further than we think.

Being frozen solid for 5,000 would mess up some meat (and skin) I would think.
