In February 1959, nine experienced hikers vanished in the Ural Mountains under circumstances so bizarre that they remain one of the world’s most puzzling mysteries. Known as the Dyatlov Pass Incident, this case defies simple explanation: a tent slashed open from the inside, hikers fleeing into the freezing night without proper clothing, and bodies found with injuries akin to a car crash—yet no external wounds. Add to this traces of radiation, Soviet secrecy, and a chilling lack of resolution, and you have the perfect blend of science, folklore, and conspiracy.

In this episode, we delve into the compelling theories surrounding the incident. Could it have been caused by Soviet military experiments, natural phenomena like infrasound or katabatic winds, or something more sinister? From stories of yetis to government cover-ups, this case reveals as much about our fascination with the unknown as it does about the tragedy itself.
