Dyatlov Nine

Death Below Zero

De: Catt Dahman

Narrado por: Nathan Tarantla

The mysteries surrounding the deaths of nine young, experienced ski hikers in 1959 have never been solved. On a trip through the Ural Mountains, the group of students first were reported missing and then were found deceased, but several were not located until months following the tragedy. Despite exhaustive investigations, there has never been a theory that explains exactly what killed the nine, and because of this, many unusual conjectures have arisen. Strange theories include a yeti attack, UFOs, and teleportation, military/government secret weapons testing, rogue missiles, or parachute mines, radio waves, and black holes.

Because of the truly strange behavior of the nine skiers, their shocking causes of death from autopsy reports and other evidence, and the many unanswered questions, the mystery has sparked fierce debates.

The fact is that we may never know exactly what happened to the young people during their trip and especially on February 1-2 of 1959, but Dyatlov Nine: Death Below Zero offers a theory that fits all the evidence including diaries, forensics, and photographs. With new pictures and new maps in the book, the case may finally be solved.

Warning: Graphic autopsy reports and photographs.

very dramatic

I know a lot of people that enjoy the dramatic writing but I'm not one. Don't get me wrong, I didn't dislike it completely. It's and interesting theory but people wouldn't be having these full dramatic conversations when they're freezing to death from hypothermia. I feel like certain things and scenes were overdone just to draw attention to soecific things that the author wants you to focus on but I can't handle all of it. Just my opinion! It seems like others really enjoy it. That's why I gave a higher rating. Don't want to bring down the rating just cause I didn't like the writing style. I'm going to keep pondering this case. Too intriguing to give up on.

Author is a B Horror Writer, My God It Shows

This is a poorly written book. The structure and narrator are atrocious. The first 3 hours are a fan fiction of the events of that night, essentially a bad film script or creepy pasta, down to cheesy “I love both of you, not just one of you” type lines from Zina as she watches her friends and according to the author, LOVERS, dying.

SKIP THOSE FIRST 3 HOURS.

She also seems to think a lack of evidence to back up her theory and flat out calling the authorities who investigated the site liars proves her correct.
I do love this case, and the authors imagined chain of events after the hikers left the tent is plausible after you remove the fictional dialogue.

HOWEVER.

Her reasoning for all 9 hikers leaving the tent in the first place was the weakest part of this book by far, it was laughable, and left me wishing I hadn’t wasted my time and money on it. She spends a lot of the book gaslighting the conditions at the site to be equivalent to those in the death zone of Everest (LOL) , and wants you to believe all 9 suffered from hypoxia so severely at 10,000 ft (the height of my house here in the Rockies) that they walked out into a blizzard in negative temperatures and died because a single member of the group heard thunder that sounded like explosions, which caused him to have war flashbacks, and this one member’s delusion on its own merit was enough to convince all other 8 people to cut themselves out of their tent in a panic and walk out into freezing conditions without anyone questioning the logic of that move.

Let me rate this theory/book in the authors style:
1 Star. Wishful thinking from someone who couldn’t decide between a factual or fictional take on these events. Whitley Strieber would be proud. There are far better books about the Dyatlov case out there.

excellent book

wish there would be some way for audible to give us the pictures that come with a book!
