    The Daytlov Pass incident. A lot of it could be explained as hysteria brought on by either cold or just fear after being in an avalanche; but how the hell did some of the victims have radiation burns?

      Apparently, there was the Kyshtym disaster in the area 2 years beforehand, so that may explain the radiation.

      You’re Wrong About podcast has an episode about this with Blair Braverman guesting, that I think posits a decent theory. Blair also appears on episodes about the Andes plane crash and the diphtheria serum run, both of which are well worth a listen.

      I’m still pissed they haven’t done a season of “The Terror” about this.
