Major historical mistake.


The irritating lead character is such an expert on the case that she says the wrong girl lost her tongue.
That is very disrespectful to these poor people that the makers didn't bother researching that properly.

Suggesting that the people turned into mutants via a wormhole didn't offend you...yet a tongue missing from the wrong hiker did lol interesting.

especially since no one even lost a tongue. Its a known mistranslation of the original documents, since actually half her head was missing, since her head was placed in running water under the snow for days.

I agree. She said "Alexander" lost his tongue; there were two Alexanders, for one thing, and she'd slip from her American accent and say "Alexahndah." (A take two, perhaps?) It was Lyudmila Dubinina whose tongue was missing , as well as the majority of her mouth 's interior tissue, per the autopsy.

So many errors. They were not all found at the same time, for instance, and there were only insignificant, trace amounts of radiation found, on the clothing (only) of Dubinina and Zolotaryev. Easily explained, as she worked in a lab with radioactive material, and he was wearing her coat.

If you're going to make money off the deaths of innocent people, you should at least get the facts straight, out of respect.

I've only mentioned things I've read in scores of reports, very consistently. About 50% also say Lyudmila's eyes were missing; not enough for me to believe they were, but I'm surprised they didn't use this rumor to increase the creepy factor.

She also said that the Mansi meaning for the area was 'mountain of the dead' (which loads of conspiracy documentaries also say) when it's 'Dead Mountain': meaning that it's 'dead' for hunting. Nothing grows there, so animals can't graze, which means there's no hunting to be had, ergo- the mountain is 'dead.'
I know I sound petty but for a person who has supposedly researched the history of Dyatlov's Pass, it was a school-boy error...
