People taking off their clothes is common with severe hypothermia. Lacerations and blunt trauma is common for avalanche victims. The soft/detachable parts (eyes, tongue) can be still eaten by scavengers while frozen.

So the only unusual part would be the radioactivity, strange lights, and what triggered the avalanche. Which could all be explained by some classified military test.

The two people in the group with radioactive clothing worked in a nuclear facility.

As another commenter pointed out, the YT channel Lemmino made an excellent video with research based on the primary sources, and the conclusion is, unsurprisingly, not aliens. When all the facts are considered, the whole incident is probably only still considered mysterious because it makes a better story.

The article suggests thorium lanterns for the radioactivity.

The other points are all obvious - nature taking its course. Scavengers (probably mainly birds) will eat the soft parts first.

Ye, just wanted to provide an alternative for the "spooky" parts that people like to bring up =)

Some of them may also have been sleeping nude or nearly so, particularly if their clothes were damp. At least, that's the cold weather camping advice I've received. Maybe they did things differently.

Consumption by animals would leave obvious signs on the bodies. That would be something even an amateur might deduce if the evidence was there.

A somewhat detailed explanation with pictures of the injuries of each body found [0]. The info that Dubinina's tongue seems to had been _removed_ while still allegedly alive seems a bit odd to me.

Not Safe Before Sleep: I should not have opened this in bed.

Could Dubinina's specific injury have been caused by taking a sudden excess of snow by mouth?

never seen this website before. impressive, that all docs, photos are there. also quite useful, that according to med examination someone made pictures with all the injuries. i personally believe in the most simple explanation. no conspiracy, no supernatural.

The spookiest thing there is the stripper-grade anti-grav breasts on the female 3D-model

Explanations for all of those are mentioned in the link.

Why are you downvoted? This is not at all a simple theory. It’s interesting but it defies the Occam’s razor principle. It would involve a very specific combination of natural events. So-called skeptics will spend their lives trying to explain very strange things with everyday normal causes such as « swamp gas » or « reflection on the windshield » when obviously a larger curiosity and openness of mind would be required.

Take a closer look at roadkill the next few times you see it. You'll often notice the eyes, tongue, etc are missing. Sometimes the corpse will look like a skeleton with skin but no organs.

These are circumstances commonly attributed to aliens or cuppracabra attacking cattle. However it's very common in roadkill when you start to look for it. It's pretty mundane, though I understand some people will find it startling the first time they see or hear of it.

The „conspiracy theorists“ often seem to dismiss multi-factor explanations. When in fact they may be rare when you calculate for a single event, but if you consider how many events are happening across the globe it’s just not that improbable that a medial sensation was in fact the result of an - individually unlikely - chain of events

When George Mallory was found on Everest, scavengers had eaten his internal organs from one hole in his (frozen) skin. He was like a human-shaped shell.

What scavengers would that be? No small animal capable of doing that is known to be able to survive at that height. small number of birds can fly that high, that's about it.

The lammergeyer, a sort of high-altitude vulture. They're known to eat the dead on Everest.

> They even have been observed living at altitudes of 7,500 m (24,600 ft) on Mount Everest

> The bearded vulture is the only known vertebrate whose diet consists almost exclusively (70 to 90 percent) of bone.

> The bearded vulture (Gypaetus barbatus), also known as the lammergeier and ossifrage

"ossifrage" is interesting to see in a sentence because the word appeared in a famous 1977 RSA cryptographic challenge with the solution "The magic words are squeamish ossifrage". The challenge appeared in Martin Gardner's Scientific American column and took 17 years to break.

> ossifrage

the bone-breaker

Appropriate.

Or maybe chupacabra attacks are more common than you think and you just think it's roadkill ;)

Occam's razor does not actually mean the simplest explanation is correct. If that was the case you could explain anything with "a wizard did it." Occam's razor says that if you have 2 possible explanations, but one adds unnecessary clauses, the one with only the necessary clauses is more likely right.

For example, two explanations: 1. There was an avalanche and birds ate the soft tissue 2. There was an avalanche, birds ate the soft tissue, and Mars was in retrograde

Occam's razor tells you the first explanation is more likely to be correct. It does not tell you 4 or 5 natural events occurring can't be the best explanation if there isn't a more parsimonious alternative explanation.

Occam's razor prefers the hypothesis with less asumptions that still agrees with all the observations.

H0 assumes that:

- there's intelligent life out there

- that life is close enough to visit Earth

- it's interested in us enough to secretly do weird things to us

- but for some reason hides from our governments/scientists

- and manages to avoid them

- but for some reason regular people can sometimes catch it

- but never on a cellphone

- it came to that particular place and did these particular things

H1 only assumes a lot of things we already know exist and can happen (like hypothermia and scavengers) - happened at once.
