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.
- estaseuropano 6y agoThe 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.
- convery 6y agoYe, just wanted to provide an alternative for the "spooky" parts that people like to bring up =)
- wavefunction 6y agoConsumption by animals would leave obvious signs on the bodies. That would be something even an amateur might deduce if the evidence was there.

- alpaca128 6y agoThe 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.
