Body found at Dyatlov Pass where 9 hikers mysteriously died in 1959 © Ekaterina Vlasenko / Sputnik A body has been discovered by tourists at the infamous Dyatlov Pass in Russia’s Ural Mountains where nine hikers mysteriously died in 1959. Emergency services have reportedly momentarily lost contact with the group. An unidentified body has been discovered by tourist-hikers at the infamous Dyatlov pass in Sverdlovskaya region, according to local security officials. A group of nine tourists reportedly from Perm contacted emergency services overnight on Friday. Following a message from the group via satellite phone officials lost contact with the hikers, reported V-kurse.ru. Due to bad weather conditions emergency groups are unable to reach the barely-accessible site where the body was found. Some reports suggest that it is a male of about 50 years old. The travelers began their journey on January 1 trekking along one of the most difficult paths starting from North Ural to the town of Ivdel, according to the emergency services. The site where body was reportedly located is infamous for the tragic and mysterious deaths of nine hikers in 1959. The causes of their deaths are still unknown while the case is surrounded with controversy. The Dyatlov pass was named after the leader of the hiking group that went missing, Igor Dyatlov. The group consisted of graduate students from of the Ural Polytechnic Institute. Their plan was to trek 350 kilometers on skis through the forests and Northern Urals to Mount Otorten (which is translated from the local Mansi language as ‘Don’t go There’). Initially there were 10 people in the group, but one of the hikers fell ill and was forced to abandon the venture. On February 12, 1959 the nine failed to report to the scheduled end-point at a village called Vizhay. As a result of rescue efforts, the group’s tent was found on the slope of the Mount Kholat Syakhl (“Mountain of the Dead” in Mansi) on February 26. Investigators later determined that tent had been was cut with a sharp object from the inside. The skiers also left all their belongings in the tent while apparently trying to urgently flee the campsite. After following footprints down the hill for about 1.5 km – some of those fleeing were wearing only socks, some were even barefoot – the search party found five bodies. Some of the hikers were wearing only underwear and their bodies showed signs of struggle such as fractured skulls and broken ribs. One of the women had her tongue missing. The search for the remaining four travelers who were located further into the woods took more than two months. The Soviet criminal investigation in 1959 failed to establish the causes of the incident. The final report said that an "unknown compelling force" killed the people. The incident which remains one of the most chilling unsolved mysteries of the 20th century sparked many theories in which investigators attempted to rebuild the chronology of events. The numerous explanations put forward included an avalanche, military tests seen by the hikers that the government was trying to hide, a hostile encounter with an unknown creature, or paranormal activity. The mystery of the Dyatlov Pass incident has inspired filmmakers to make a science fiction horror movie entitled ‘Devil’s Pass’ where five students investigate the incident. Poster Comment: Hmmmm...

If their tent was cut from the inside it sounds like one of the group turned on the rest and was a mass murderer. It would seem though that nine to one, they could've taken him out. But in a situation like that it sounds like each fled on their own, leading to their demise.

You didn't read the entire story. I didn't read the entire Wiki account so maybe they didn't mention it, but there are others out there that do. To cut to the chase, the bodies were radioactive, there were massive internal injuries yet no sign of external trauma, and other hikers in the area saw lights in the sky that night. And oh yeah, ALL of them suffered the same fate.
To cut to the chase, the bodies were radioactive, there were massive internal injuries yet no sign of external trauma, and other hikers in the area saw lights in the sky that night I only read what you posted here. Fractured skull, broken ribs & missing tongue are definite external injuries. But the photo you posted at the bottom, if that's actually one of them, they look completely terrified. Interesting case, I've never heard of it. "Even to the death fight for truth, and the LORD your God will battle for you". Sirach 4:28
This is the last picture taken on one of the victim's (Yuri Krivonischenko) camera.. What do you think happened to them?

No external trauma where the internal injuries were. And a fractured skull is internal, external trauma was absent. The missing tongue, eyes, and lips were certainly external injuries, but that was only one victim of the nine. From the wiki page; I think a hostile technologically superior intelligence decided to terminate them for whatever reason. I wonder if the current day hikers are meeting a similar fate. Did you note that contact with them has been lost?
This is a weird case all right. Skeptoid purports to totally demystify it -- lemme know what yawl think of this 10-minute spiel.

Fractured skull, broken ribs & missing tongue are definite external injuries.
Three of the ski hikers had fatal injuries: Thibeaux-Brignolles[citation needed] had major skull damage, and both Dubinina and Zolotarev had major chest fractures. According to Dr. Boris Vozrozhdenny, the force required to cause such damage would have been extremely high, comparing it to the force of a car crash. Notably, the bodies had no external wounds related to the bone fractures, as if they had been subjected to a high level of pressure. However, major external injuries were found on Dubinina, who was missing her tongue, eyes, part of the lips, as well as facial tissue and a fragment of skullbone;[4]
