The Dyatlov Pass Incident, which occurred in February 1959 in the Ural Mountains, involved nine experienced Soviet hikers who abandoned their tent in the middle of the night, leaving it cut from the inside, and fled into -30°C darkness barefoot and underdressed, with all nine subsequently dying; investigators found no signs of struggle, no enemy tracks, and no rational explanation, with some bodies showing internal injuries with no external wounds and one missing her tongue, leading the Soviet government to classify the findings and seal the case for decades, with the official cause of death being 'an unknown compelling force.'

Each theory explained part of it >> [music] >> and failed somewhere else.
What remains unchanged? They didn't behave like people escaping weather.
They behaved like something had already rewritten the rules.
