        • Ötzi the Iceman

          Let's talk about old people. No ... we mean REALLY old people! Ötzi the Iceman was discovered in 1991 - but that in and of itself doesn't make him old. His remains (yes, remains) are over 5,000 years old!

          Ötzi is believed to be the oldest mummified human to have been found as of the writing of this description. In this episode, we're talking about how he lived, how he died, and even how he ATE!
