In an accident with burning oil I set my hands on fire which caused 3rd degree burns. The thing I remember forty five years later was how I could feel my skin and my fingers shrivelling up as I looked at them thinking, “ I’m on fire.” The chap in Herculaneum would have been shocked but would not have suffered. It to over half an hour before I felt the terrible pain from my burns. That depth of sudden burning destroys the peripheral nerve endings and it takes the brain time to adjust. I am still amazed by that fact.

All the investigation into otzi’s death indicates that he. Was killed by an arrow to his shoulder from the back and below. The arrow shaft was deliberately removed. There was also a cut on his left Palm as if he had been in a struggle with someone holding a flint knife. There’ are indications that he had descended, ascended and again descended the mountain then finally ascended again. He had also eaten a meal of almost 1/2 pound of Ibex and Eincorn wheat, before this struggle. These facts are from an intense investigation performed during an examination by many teams of scientists that removed material from his stomach, retrieved material. From which his DNA was ascertained and from the X-ray that. Discovered the flint arrowhead still in his body. From this evidence, it is unlikely that he was a sacrifice. He was murdered.

@@folgore1 the Smithsonian video has no credits so when it was made is unknown. Some videos are still made that do not have the more recent information and therefore need updating through the comments. While speculative, my conclusion is that there were two involved in Otzi’s death. One that was attacking with a knife and the other that shot him with the arrow. There is also the possibility that while leaving the axe, some other treasure was stolen from him. Although more investigation would be required as to what would be so valuable as to cause such violent actions.

Thanks for the information regarding the likely cause of death for this man. Very sad and misfortune ending for him. To spend eternity on display for somebody else's profit and amusement is another layer of injustice for this long-dead man. Recognizing the disrespect and inhumanity with which his corpse has been treated is another layer of sadness to his death.

@@Chris-ic6bp, Possibly so, however, even though we do mot really know anything about who he was, the facts of the age of his death,5,300 years ago and the artifacts with. Him especially his copper axe, has forced historians to consider how much earlier the smelting of copper occurred, (almost a thousand years ). While we have given him a name, his refrigerated coffin still honors him and like the Mummies in museums, when we can speak their names, they live on.

Was it a cowardly attack or was Otzi a nasty person & deserved what he got? Was he ostracised? A sacrifice? Was thinking that if they take his axe, would be cursed? Fascinating!

Ok, I have always disagreed with those who say the ax would have been stolen by a murderer. This was an incredibly rare item. It would be as if someone disappeared at work and Pete suddenly showed up driving a Ferrari that looked just like missing Fred’s Ferrari. I think he was murdered, and perhaps was able to hide from his killer (taking his food wouldn’t have been an obvious “tell”) but I think the reason all of his things were with him was that he and his killer were from the same group. If it was warfare, trophies would have been taken. If you killed your shaman, your chief or even just your wife’s irritating brother, you don’t take anything that would tell the people at home what you’d done. They would recognize his clothing and tools.

I saw 'Sylvester' a number of years ago in the 'Ye Old Curiosity Shoppe' in Seattle, WA. They had him on show standing in a glass and wood cabinet covered with just a strategically placed blanket. I can't remember what 'his story' was that the owners had concocted for him but I do have to say he was in amazing condition. Found a few years later he wasn't who they said he was and I felt sorry that he should be given a proper burial or something like it.

History is full of unsung heroes like this Roman legionary who sacrificed himself trying to keep the people at Herculaneum safe - assuming this is actually how things went down and he wasn't just some random soldier who just happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time. At any rate I hope he can rest easy knowing the tale of his selflessness has resurfaced after all these years.

Fascinating but incredibly disrespectful to just have a mummy in your shop! I’d never step foot in your store. Once I got through the Wild West one, the video became increasingly better! The Maiden was amazing and tragic. Well done.

But you will go to a museum that has a mummy display that they refuse to give back to Egypt because it is a money maker for the museum? What is the difference?

@@lisaseverance6785 ... The "difference" is in the blatantly ill-mannered way this human's dead corpse was gleefully displayed for profits. The disgusting lack of regard for this once living human is the "difference". There was a time when most Americans would have been appalled by this "presentation". I am glad l was raised by grandparents from the Great Depression and WWII eras.....( dubbed for good reason: "THE GREATEST GENERATION OF AMERICANS". *NEVER ONCE* did l ever witness them treating ANYBODY with disrespect.... and that included the dead. Shame what deterioration has happened to American ethics, standards, and morals.

You can do manual labor and not have calluses due to habitual use of emollients animal fats and petroleum jelly etc. Nails can be filed very close. Some gymnasts take a very high level of care. Brute labor. Excluded.

Not exactly sure how them having a mummy on display is any different than any museum with an Egyptian display of mummies. England has a huge collection of mummies and artifacts that they refuse to return because it is a money maker for them. Years ago, during England's Imperial times, the rich would have mummy unwrapping parties to increase their social standing with others.

@@lisaseverance6785 Yes, your correct and there is mounting pressure in the UK to have these types of cultural heirlooms returned to their homelands, but there is big $$£££€€ in having them. I've seen a few up close, and I've been saddened by their current circumstances. Don't forget most of these items are actually stolen at a government sanctioned level - Really sad. We need to respect the dead, just as much as the living, but perhaps that's the issue?! Keep safe and well.

That the copper axe was left could be because it was seen in the Italian village he was last at before he was killed. Such a piece of evidence would easily lead to those responsible. In that the arrow shaft with the feathers could identify a particular person if left in the body and was discovered.
