Unlocking the mystery of Dead Mountain

http://cltampa.com/dailyloaf/archives/2013/12/26/unlocking-the-mystery-of-dead-mountain

Donnie Eichar, has come full circle facing the mystery of The Dyatlov Pass Incident. The 54-year-old Russian mystery that captured Eichar's interest and left him intoxicated in his search to find the answers.
In early winter of 1959, nine experienced Russian hikers led by Igor Alekseievich Dyatlov went missing in Russia's northern Ural Mountains. A search and rescue team later found the bodies over a mile from their tent. Some were half naked, barefoot and in fetal positions. One of the hikers had his skull crushed by a force presumed too powerful to be human. Another had her tongue ripped from her mouth. No footprints besides those of the hikers were found anywhere near the incident. Their tent was oddly neat and arranged, ski boots standing in formation, bags of bread positioned in a corner and a stove in the center of the tent waiting to be lit. There was no evidence of foul play.

For decades, many have wondered about what truly took place on that mountain. Eichar claims to have the answer, which can be found in his new book, Dead Mountain.

Eichar discovered the Dyatlov Pass Incident while doing research for a scripted film project. He said he was procrastinating one night by researching what historians felt were the top modern mysteries in the world and saw the Dyatlov Pass Incident on most lists. The more he read into its history, the more intrigued he became.

"I admire the hikers and the life they lived during the time of the Cold War, being in the wilderness allowed them to get off the grid and challenge themselves," said Eichar.

Many theories were uncovered during the research process which include the hiker's uncovered a Russian government secret and were silenced with death, alien abduction, they were camping on sacred ground and punished by that area's indigenous people, and they were accidentally killed during a Russian missile test.

When they failed to return, search parties went out, with every expectation of finding at least some survivors - hopes that were soon dashed.
The first bodies - frostbitten and frozen stiff - were discovered lying in the snow on flat land near a river, a mile from the tent, next to the remains of a long burnt-out fire.
Around 350 yards away lay the corpse of Igor Dyatlov, the 23-year-old engineering student from Ural Polyetchnic who had put the expedition together and was its leader. (His name would later be given to the area where the tragedy took place.)
Nearby, a search dog sniffed out the remains of Zina Kolmogorova, 22, under four inches of snow, and then that of Rustem Slobodin. The bodies were in a line 200 yards apart, as if they had been trying to crawl behind each other back up to the shelter of the tent, but never made it.
Another two months went by before the rest of the group were found, under 15ft of snow in a den they had desperately hollowed out for themselves before succumbing to the cold.
Some of this group had broken bones and terrible internal injuries but, strangely, no external wounds, not even scratches on the skin.
Stranger still, odd bits of their clothing contained higher than normal levels of radiation.
Indeed, post-mortem examinations of all nine bodies threw up a string of bewildering anomalies. Why were some fully clothed, but others nearly naked? Most disconcerting of all was Lyudmilla Dubinina's body, which was missing her tongue and eyes.

"Surprisingly, one of the most extraordinary and astonishing versions came from none other than Lev Ivanov himself. In 1990, the retired Prosecutor published an article, "The Enigma of the Fireballs", where he admitted that in spring of 1959, under the pressure of A. P. Kirilenko, and of his deputy, A. F. Yeshtokin, he withdrew various key materials from the case that indicated the true cause of the accident: "fireballs" or a UFO: "When E. P. Maslennikov and I examined the scene in May, we found that some young pine trees at the edge of the forest had burn marks, but those marks did not have a concentric form or some other pattern. There was no epicenter. This once again confirmed that heated beams of a strong, but completely unknown, at least to us, energy, were directing their firepower toward specific objects (in this case, people), acting selectively." Later on, Kirilenko professed a lively interest in UFO's, and received memos about sightings of UFO's from KGB chief Andropov."

"There is an noteworthy detail in the authopsy report for Dubibina: "There was up to 100 cm3 (~6.6 fl.oz.) of slimy dark-red substance in the stomach" (https://sites.google.com/site/hibinaud/home/akt-issledovania-trupa-dubininoj). Strictly, there is no explicit statement that the substance was Dubinina's own curdled blood (even in histologic analysis - https://sites.google.com/site/hibinaud/home/gistologiceskie-analizy), but if it is - it indicates that she was alive when the tongue was torn off and she was swallowing blood. - Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.117.62.124 (talk) 20:19, 17 March 2013 (UTC)"

Sightings of 'abominable snowmen' and yeti-like creat­ures are common in Russia - after all, if such creatures do exist then the country's vast snowfields offer plenty of places for them to hide from the eyes of man.

Trakhtengertz has also stated that in their 'newspaper', the Evening Otorten, the students had written in large letters: "From now on we know that the snowmen exist". Perhaps, though, we shouldn't read too much into this; it goes onto say: "They can be met in the Northern Urals, next to Otorten mount­ain." Given the humorous tone of the 'newspaper', it's quite likely that the students were jokingly referring to themselves rather than recording a genuine sighting of an almasty.

You know what… the detail about how some of them were clothed and not clothed… that makes me think that if they had experienced a sudden burst of radiation, the material on some of their clothes might have reflected the radiation in on themselves and they quickly took their clothes off due to a burning sensation.

I don't know how that explains anything else though just a theory, haven't read it yet either.
