[@pamelameckley5040]

The one about the guy that almost froze to death walking home from the pub really bothers me. People are so hard and cold and greedy for money that they can think of no one but themselves even on a freezing cold night, temps in the minus degrees. No one from the bar, no taxi would take him home. No one could be bothered except one exceptionally kind, compassionate soul. I hope that God blesses him for all of his days. Very glad to hear that the young man lived to tell the story. I hope he thanked his guardian angel properly when he was able (if the man left any contact information, that is.)

Now im interested in hearing more stories from the 1800’s

[@mamacitabambi3558]

I remember when this happened... Its was so sad and tragic... Some people ostracized the survivors, for having to resort to canabilism. I'm sure it was difficult for them to have to eat their deceased friends, and they should never have been made to feel even more horrible than they already did... May God bless those who parished, and those who survived... When I was in Middle School, we had to read The Donner-Reed Party book... Very, very sad... Donner Pass is one of the most dangerous places on I-80, during the winter. Oftentimes Donner Pass is closed, due to the blizzards that come through.

[@wolfcub824]

I remember hearing about children eating their own fingers, they were so hungry and cold. The cold numbed their fingers and they nibbled them away. Crossing in the winter was insanely dangerous for the pioneers.

Having gone through my own near death experience in the snow in December of 2023, these stories are very relatable to me now.

“Into Thin Air” by Jon Krakauer is an excellent/more accurate account of what went down on the ‘96 Everest Disaster. He is a talented journalist and author who is a hardcore climber and was there for the disaster

[@Sollinare]

No, it's not accurate. Bukreev's "Climb" is way better.

"Fear is for the winter, my little lord, when the snows fall a hundred feet deep.

[@WitchVine]

Great topic! I live in Canada. Winter is something. You get used it, you know? Just passing through it's no more than an annoyance. On your way to work, in your yard, etc.. But every once in a while something will happen that catches you out there much longer than you meant to be. Or you find yourself woefully unprepared for whatever reason (a city 3 hours north of where you're used to, or you weren't expecting a blizzard that day) and the wind cuts through multiple layers of clothing. Temperatures of -20C and below are no joke. And it's not just the cold that can do you in. Ice can kill you just by slipping on it, or by weighing something down that then falls on you.

[@sherlockdad]

To the Bar Fly who nearly froze to death, I hope that bar, that tossed you out sans coat or way home, now bears your name! As the new owner!

I haven't read the book, which I would like to read because the book is always better, but I did watch that movie about the rugby players. I think it's called Alive. It's terrifying in a way because it makes you think about what you would do in that situation. it's a good movie no one seen it they should check it out. I'm sure the book is even better. It is a very true, sad story.

[@monicagarcia5032]

I saw the movie and havent read the book either. While I was listening I could see the movie playing in my head. Such a sad sad story.

[@yona-yama]

I read the book for a school project years ago. Alive by Piers Paul Read. Scary stuff.

[@meganharrison6679]

Rebecca 'Spooky' Duran the movie is fairly close however they do not include them eating organs only flesh. The book is far better and I HIGHLY recommend it! One warning though, only start to read it when you have time because once you start is is so captivating you can’t put it down!

Just listned to this on my way home in a really bad snow storm (well for west texas). A drive that normaly takes about 25 minutes took around an hour and 10 minutes. I just pressed play on a video that first popped up and went on my merry way. I realized it was about snow storms while going about 25 mph on a stretch of road with lots of different overpasses and turns. Needless to say perfect scene to hear this video 😊. Thank you for all your hard work these videos they really make my day.

[@meganharrison6679]

What they failed to mention is Beck Weathers medical evacuation was due to his wife Peach! She was mad as hell at him due to him not telling her where he was going and spending their anniversary on the greatest mountain in the world. She made call after call until she found a team willing to evacuate him! That’s the love of a wife. The amazing Rob Hall left behind a pregnant wife and many others including talented Sherpas lost their lives in that storm on the most dangerous yet magnificent mountain in earth!

[@emmie1176]

The story made me think of what I witnessed when I was interning in LA. I was at a club with a few girls and at some point we were missing someone. I asked the others where she was and they said that she had to leave the club because she was too drunk. The girl who escorted her outside didn't know where she lived and she wasn't in a state where she could tell it. So apparently what she did was look up her last ride on Uber and put her in a car to that location. She ended up at some abandoned gas station in Compton, luckily for her the staff there was able to send her in a car home and she was alright in the end, but it could've gone very different. Reminded myself not to get drunk around those girls

[@tablescissors]

I found it was often because someone’s friends are 1. LOUSY people and/or 2. they never really liked the other person that much. It is surprising how common these two facts can be, I agree, and speak from personal experiences.

[@wickermanproxy6296]

If i was to me my end to nature herself I'd prefer to lay down in the falling snow and let it bury me whole in the cold peace of frostbitten numbness

[@kellyalves756]

wickerman proxy Actually, deep snow is insulating. My tentative plan if I was stuck in deep snow would be to dig a pit and huddle in it. The problem with a blizzard is it blows the snow around too much to get a good pack. Hence, nobody wants to get stuck on the side of a cliff in a blizzard. It would be anything but peaceful. All that said, freezing to death is one of the kinder ways to die in the final stages. Survivors of near freezing describe an eventual sensation of cozy warmth, sometimes to the point that victims remove clothing. Also, since the blood is freezing, oxygen isn’t reaching the brain. Survivors report euphoric hallucinations- you suddenly meet your best friends, majestic valleys open up in front of you, you have philosophical conversations with Zoroaster, whatever.

[@daengineer9]
