Title: They were NOT crushed by snow
Post by: Dona on March 23, 2021, 09:12:13 AM
They didnt dig a snow den.. Their clean hands prove that.. nary  scratch on them.. Also, they were lying perpendicular to the ravine..

For the rav 4 and the Yuris under the tree, we can't really judge much based on body positions.  The Yuris were moved as the others took their clothing after death.  The rav 4 were in running water; their bodies very well could have shifted from melting snow and water.  The state of the bath skin on the rav 4 also makes it difficult to determine injuries/dirt on their hands.

They were under 10 feet of snow, frozen solid.. I doubt they shifted  much.. Also, I didnt mean clean, as in free of dirt. I meant clean, as in free of  the scratches, abrasions and bruises that the others all have.

Well I doubt they would have got far trying to dig a snow den with bare hands. They may have had some other means of digging, and also we dont know how deep the snow was when they were at the Ravine.

Now I'm confused. I thought this was established as the den they built and they were found laying a bit away from it. If it isn't the den, what is it?

Igors  group...the 5 that were not in the ravine..

Now I am really confused. I thought that Igor's group were under the cedar, then 2 died, and 3 were found on the slope, the ravine 4 built a den in a ravine and were found out side the den in a creek. where was the snow cave then and why were the bodies under the cedar and on the slope?

Post by: cennetkusu on March 24, 2021, 09:56:11 AM
Dividing the group into 3 explains many things. This means that they are absolutely confused and do not know what to do. A group is digging in the snow at minus 10 degrees colder! The other group is trying to light a fire at minus 10 degrees and on a windy night! The other group is trying to walk uphill in the snow to the tent 1.5km away in almost total darkness !!! They are definitely very confused and scared. But they did everything they could to survive ... Especially the trio trying to get up to the tent was quite brave ... Two of the other Yuri's stayed where they were and the other four looked for a hiding place ..... God bless their souls.

The Den or snow cave is not proven to be that. A lot of snow accumulated in that area over the course of weeks and months.

Yes along with some wood laid out on the ground. But that doesnt prove a Den or Snow Cave.

The snow cave was near the ravine..They all died after they built it..Why they left it... who knows..

Just a thought. After Yuri D. and Yuri K. died, the four left the fire and walked deeper into the forest. Why they left the fire is open for interpretation. 3 of the four (or all four) lost footing and, possibly slid down an embankment and landed onto exposed rocks (Dubinina was found lying face down on a large rock). 3 of the four were mortally wounded during this fall. The remaining member, who did not sustain significant injuries, built the bed nearby. They did not build a snow cave. After succumbing to the elements, the fourth member died by the others. They were missed during the initial search and eventually covered by a lot of snow.

This has obvious problems but it makes the most sense.

People don't get broken ribs from a fall!?

"Thoracic injuries are more common in high falls, the commonest specific injuries being rib fractures, lung contusion, pneumothorax and hemothorax [10]. In very high falls cardiac and aortic rupture are common [3]."

Fall from 4 ft:

The medical examiner even stated fall as possible explanation of injuries:

Question: From what kind of force could Thibeaux-Brignolle have received such injury?

Answer: In the conclusion, it’s shown the damage to Thibeaux-Brignolle’s head could have been the result of the throwing, fall or jettisoning of the body.

I have had no problems reading Igor B's links. I am not sure what problem you guys are having with automatic translation.

I highly recommend reading it all to understand, it would save on all the questions.

From what I can astatine and in a very basic explanation , the ravine 4 were possibly the first to die. The area is very different today than how it was 60 years ago with vegetation. The nature of the wind would blow the snow over the ravine. (Igor shows an example photo) . It is possible that there was a natural snow cave over the ravine. It is suggested that the may have dug out some more snow and made the roof of the cave too flat which makes it more likely to collapse. The reason they are found the way they were is because they were sheltering themselves and using the coats to cover each other, or sharing them. It doesn't mean they were lying in the stream and there may have been some migration of the bodies when the thawing started.

If there was a couple of meters of snow above them and it collapsed , it could explain the broken ribs and maybe the eyes being forced out as Dona has suggested. Igor B explains a lot of this and why there are less damage to their hands and why only one side of the ribs are broken. Igor B explains the nature of the snow in a collapse and how it becomes harder and more compact.

 It was identified at the time of digging them out  that the snow was hard.

There is a lot of good information and research with photos and videos of the area. It is the best explanation that I have read hands down.

I've been reading through it, now that I've got a browser that translates.  I had not personally thought about a snow cave with a roof, until now.  I always assumed it was just a hole dug vertically into the snow, rather than a cave dug more horizontally.  We used to dig crazy snow caves as kids every day, I just hadn't considered it this was, for whatever reason (I'm much less creative as an adult than I was in my immortal youth, lol!!)  It makes sense.  And the way it is presented makes sense.  I've always felt that you can't judge the body positions in the ravine based on how they were found as snow and water can shift things, substantially.  This is absolutely a plausible scenario, as presented.

Thank you for the synopsis!!  It has been frustrating for me trying to translate various sources.  Kindle has weird proprietary issues so being able to install a browser that supported a translation add-on took some time.  Well, it took *me* time whining and took my daughter five minutes to hack, lol!!

Thanks Kfinn. It is a very interesting theory . It give explanations to a lot of the problems, even the hands , autopsy reports. Its Igor B's research and is very extensive. It is a good simple theory that is plausible.

As I understand it from the photos, the den was slightly above the ravine 4. He also suggested there was a significant change in temperature.

From your first link, falls with a drop of 22m (6 floors) result in a 50% mortality. A fall of 7.34m results in 4% mortality. Wrt emergency services, Lyudmila would have been DOA, Semyon probably the same, Nicolai's survival would depend on his brain function but note his skull was misshapen with the base of the skull split up to 4mm, so perhaps 50/50 that he would have lived, unlikely that he would function properly.

Breaking ribs from a fall of 4 feet is not a flail chest, Semyon's morgue photo shows that his upper rib cage has simply been flattened. Also the shoulder blade fracture suggests he was lying on his back.
A fallen tree is a far more sensible theory (for the ravine deaths).

I don't want to to take away from Igor's B hard work. I don't want to claim his research as my own. I think it might answer a lot of your questions if you have a look. Nothing more or less. I read nearly everything on this sitefor 4 years, every post and on other sites.

I was with the avalanche theory as to why they left the tent at first. I don't buy into aliens, Bigfoot or any paranormal event. I have yet to read Teddy's account in detail and I will.

Just as you look into this rabbit hole, Igor B , for me at least has done a lot of research. 100 plus pages, of conversations similar to this. You don't have to look.

Can you provide a translation?

Yes, please!!  Or even a basic synopsis? 
You may be able to configure your web browser to automatically translate a foreign-language webpage into English via your online translation machine of choice (or at least, via the browser vendor's translation machine).  I'm currently posting via Chromium under Debian GNU/Linux, and its out-of-the-box default is to ask you whether you want to translate a foreign-language page with Google Translate.

Aha!!!  Thanks to my amazing daughter who has mad IT skills (so glad those college loans are paying off!!!!) she was able to show me how to install Chrome onto my Kindle so I can translate pages automatically, now!!!  Okay, now I have even more reading to do, lol!  The Kindle Silk browser did not have an extension or add on for translations so up until now, I had to copy and paste line by line into Google translate and it was simply not possible for me to do anything of length and get meaningful information.

Chrome is very good. My Computer Boffin Cousin reckons on Firefox, but I always had problems with Firefox. I get Automatic Translation from Russian to English. More wonderful Theories to explore and pull to pieces.

People  think that there was a 2nd cave in the ravine.. I dont .

I've not seen anyone say that. They found what they call a den.  A space in the side of a snow drift or slope of the ravine which may have been made or dug out by using their feet. It looks like there was no roof. A possibility is they were breaking the large branches on the ceder to make a roof for the den.

The spread of clothes found at the fire may have something to do with people getting wet and trying to dry clothes.

It was suggested there was a lot of activity around the ceder and on the way to the den. Broken/cut trees etc.

The snow shelter/cave is suspected to be where the ravine 4 were found, under collapsed snow which can be extremely heavy. Depending on the condition of the snow and humidity in the air etc( I am no expert) it can be like concrete after a collapse. You can not move.

 Zolotarev was found lying on the side of the broken ribs. He would not be lying on this side if he was alive with these injuries. Also the If you look at the bodies of the ravine 4 , it is conceivable they were lying together closely for warmth. Less damage to their hands  because they used a naturally formed shelter.

Nikolay Thibeaux-Brignolle was also found there with the impact on his skull which could be the result of a large mass of wet snow falling on his head which in turn was  resting on rocks. Likewise , Lyudmila lying on her back and then the collapse breaking her ribs.

Its not a perfect explanation but nothing is. If this collapse happened on the first of February , it is along time before they are found. When these bodies were discovered it was said that they were decomposing quickly. There's nothing suspicious to me at all about missing eyes and the state of the flesh etc.

Ok i've read those (two) links.
I can't see anything of importance there. The observation that Nicolai's arm is out of his sleeve is incorrect. This is how he was found :--

I agree it's difficult to tell much from that Photo Nigel.

Igor B explains all your questions throughout the link. I don't want to be a middle man or plagiarise his research and ideas. Plus I don't think Igor B is trying to be rude by not posting in English. There's over a hundred pages where he has put his theory up for scrutiny. Videos and photos etc.

"Ok i've read those (two) links.

Its important because of this thread. " They were NOT crushed by snow" . There is a lot more information within his link.

Its a debate, there is an explanation by Igor . I agree it's interesting to find holes in other people's theories but i think you would enjoy reading it all.

There's an old joke - "If you can't say it on a side of A4 then go away and write a book".  kewl1   I do think that the real explanation for the ravine deaths (whatever that is) can be described on a side of A4, preferably in a language i can read easily. My own view is that atmospheric electricity or military ordnance OR BOTH, explains the DPI. Wrt the ravine deaths there would be a raised temperature that would start to melt snow (check out the splayed footsteps = wet snow or slush), lack of frostbite in feet with only socks, Rustem was lying in a stream bed and firn snow on tent. This resulted at the ravine, in a slab slide that pushed them down from sitting and then crushed them under the snow. Nicolai's head landed between two chests that took most of the downforce, Lyudmila's throat also taking sideways force.

Hi there. Nicolai's jacket fastened at the front (with a zip). Hence that's the back of the jacket with the water bulging it out where you've marked "head".

Sorry, Nigel. I wasn't sure what you meant by the A4. The link you gave didn't lead to the first page. But I've got it now.

I'm not sure about the tracked vehicle...if I understand correctly , your position of the bodies was initially in the den , then through time the bodies migrated to their found location? ( I haven't gone through all the posts yet)

Sorry if confusing, i did say first post.
A vehicle would be the perfect answer to the ravine injuries as it easily explains Lyudmila's possible "two events". But of course there are other problems with a vehicle.


A slab slide is a good alternative and is the preferred explanation by many for the injuries only it didn't happen at the tent imo.


I have no problem with the bodies being transported 6m by "snow flow" and/or later meltwater although Vladimir Askenadzi who discovered Lyudmila with a probe has stated that they were just an arms length from the den floor, but i'm not sure the photos support his view.

Not a problem Nigel.  I think a tracked vehicle would have been witnessed by the local Mansi at some point. Plus I'm sure it would have left a lot of broken trees.

I would have thought the flooring of the den would have moved with body's though.

The arms length might mean a stone's throw or close to. Might  be a translation issue. I agree about the photos not supporting the view of them being discovered at arms length.

Slab slides are caused by different layers moving relative to each other so it's very plausible that the bodies would travel but the floor didn't.
