The Crazed Hunt for the Himalayan Yeti | Monstrum

[@waxwinged_hound]

The fact that DNA from an extinct bear was found during the search for the Yeti is absolutely incredible. This reinforces my opinion that a lot of good can come out of expeditions for "cryptids" as long as the environment and local people are respected. If fantastic legendary beasts are what get people to go out and discover new things about the world, so be it.

[@dantewhite9117]

I'm not saying that people are ignorant, but at the same time, it would be smarter to search the forests around the mountains instead of directly on the slopes. It's not that they don't find anything, it's that they looked in the wrong place.

[@Giles29]

Is the bear actually extinct? Obviously there are bears in that area, and these could indeed easily explain the sightings, particularly with the early misunderstandings of Tibetan culture by western "explorers". But the rediscovery of a supposed extinct species could be just as exciting as that of a cryptid.

[@datacipher]

Such an unfathomably bad take. Yes its possible to make a real discovery while searching for a special snowman friend at a scientology clinic. But a much better thing to than hope for random collateral discovery would be to rank plausibility to begin with and then allocate resources accordingly. EDIT: yep… you’re a little kid and you say like “science” BUT you’re not being guided to think rationally.

[@ianmacfarlane1241]

@RavnDream Hadn't noticed any nationality being more "sensitive" than any other if I'm honest. It's certainly not a characteristic I've noticed amongst my fellow British citizens, although like anywhere, you'll find every negative trait if you look hard enough. The Scottish Wars of Independence were interesting, but Nationalist fervour is a recent thing. Colonialism is a vast subject, so little point in going into it here, however no-one alive today played any part in British colonialism, (or European colonialism at all) and it's very much a class issue - most British people, if they're honest, would be glad to see the Commonwealth, (as the last remnants of Empire) die.

I am from Nepal and there are stories of many young children suddenly disappearing from the villages only to be found back unharmed and totally fine a week or so later. What is strange about all of these children is that they tend to show shamanism traits. In their later years they mention that they were taken away by yeti like being and are taught the ways of nature. Also apparently there are both male and female yetis. As a kid, these stories used to fascinate and scare me at the same time. If you ask me, If yetis do exist, I think they might be nature guardians who only appears to certain people with a fate to meet them.

Tintin ultimately has to rescue his friend from the Yeti, who had found the injured Chang near the crashsite, taken care of him and adopted him as a companion, or maybe as a surrogate child.

[@averyparticularsetofskills]

Armon Right Thats just it!! They are not unknown. Their existence has been widely accepted by the sane only after many if not all of the same factors that define the discovery of all other species that were previously unknown have been satisfied/found. In other words the amount of evidence "required" to deem a species newly discovered has happened for the Yeti/grassman/sasquatch/bigfoot/skunk ape/momo/wildman/woodman/ban-manush/ yowie ect....not just for decades or centuries but for thousands of years. Those who decide what you and I can/can't mentally handle have NOT decided to allow the substantiation of the Sasquatch to be properly released and documented. They have absolutely walked the earth for longer than most would imagine. If your smart enough to understand that certain things are kept from the masses ( & u sound smart enough btw) than you would be foolish, gullible and naive to not believe this creature to be one of those many things. The majority are skillfully and discretely led to believe just those things that a minority wants us to believe. That wont change until we, as a group block out the noise and completely open our minds period✌🏾

And Tibetan Yogis are supposed to overcome any common fear of blood or injuries or corpses, so he wouldn't have had much of an issue with it. He would've made the most with what was in his possession and in his case since he had a tiger corpse, he decided rightfully that donating a useful part to a monastery was the best course of action according to Tibetan Buddhist thought.

Modern Yeti sightings are most likely bears. Makes sense. The myth probably comes from folk memory of a other hominids/apes from the earliest days of humanity. Neanderthal, Denisovan, Gigantopithecus, Erectus... there are plenty of candidates for other types of apes and humans that we certainly could have interacted with and passed legends down for many generations.

It's a big old bear to say the least! It could definitely account for the more aggressive accounts of the Yeti! That said the Biped version which has accounts of curious & almost playful behaviour at times or again pretty aggressive & territorial behaviour makes me think about it a bit more, not many bears can stand up right for long periods of time let alone walk like it & then add in crazy deep, thick snow!? That has to be something different whether real or fake! I still think the unknown is part of the magic y'know? I would be absolutely extatic if a new species of Great Ape was discovered & properly documented!!

wow, now im starting to believe theres something to these Tibetan stories , i just heard a yeti story on mike tyson podcast and the guy who was a mountain climber , said it was in the 6th highest mountain in the world in Tibet! he said the black creature staring for 10 seconds then jumped 300ft over the rocks like it was flying , it was on a full moon, the story sounded so breath taking, i honestly believed it immediately and sure enough , i find it amazing these ancient Tibetan books describing the same creatures breath taking!!!!! nice video awesome journalism !!

@Aurangzeb i wonder what it looked like in Afghanistan? these guy said it was black with a dog looking snout nose

[@enriqueramirez0615]

The description of the yeti is unique depending on where they lived in the Himalayas, if they lived in the highlands of the mountains & plateau their furs would be White with gray skin, but if they lived in the lowlands of the forested valley their furs would be Dark Brownish with black skin.

[@enriqueramirez0615]

And they might adapt to the environment and season of the Himalayas. during the warm summer in the lowlands they would have feasted on variety of plants like leaves🌿 flowers🌸, Bamboo🎍, fruits🫐 and Nuts🥜🌰 but during the cold winter in highlands they would have feasted on meat🥩 from Yaks. They would used basic tools like stick to pick ants & termites🐜, use stone as knives to cut meat, and bowls to gather the fruits and berries. Make stone weapons to fight against predators like snow leopards.

Like polar bears vs. grizzlies lol

[@jso6790]

Very cool. I tend to think of a lot of these legends as oral traditions, traditional memories of extinct creatures, but the findings of Himalayan Brown Bear really do suggest that sometimes it is memories of the present, perhaps blurred with some memories of ancient humans.. :) (Still do not want to let go of the notion of the Game of Telephone that is oral tradition). Thanks for another cool and insightful episode. I especially loved the spiritual piece involved with the Yeti, and its role in faith as an "in-between" creature.

Yeti is more like a "BEAST TITAN" in real life.

Shipton had been part of expeditions to Everest from the Tibetan side in 1935 and 1938. The north face was the only approach available to British teams because Nepal was closed to foreigners. The ill-fated 1924 summit climb was done from the north. That changed after Chinese Communist forces took over in 1949. Tibet was closed, Nepal opened up and foreign expeditions pioneered the southern route up the Khumbu Icefall. The supposed yeti print was found on the slopes of Menlungtse, a mountain west of Everest, right on the Nepal-China border. Eric Shipton was one of the premier explorers of the Himalaya region. His 1934 and 1936 Nanda Devi expeditions were remarkable feats in mountaineering.

When did Rudolph say Bumbles had a tooth ache? As I recall, he chased them all over the north pole, fixing to eat them and stopped only for two reasons. First, he couldn't swim so they got away by sailing off. Second, Hurvey and Yukon knocked him out long enough to have all of his teeth forcibly pulled, leaving him without anyway to threaten people and they backed him right off a cliff.

[@get7025]

Well narrated! You’ve got a really good voice. I also like your independent research. Well done. You have a bright future ahead of you! 😀

[@kri249]

This was interesting and well researched. We have our own version of the yeti in Australia called the Yowie. We also don't have bears. So, besides the Bunyip this would be another interesting video to see what you would come up with. Love your work Emily.

My dad who is now around 70 yrs old and my grandpa who died 2 decades ago, hearing stories about their encounter with different kind of animals, many of which my dad could recognize after watching animal planets and discovery but many he couldnot and we think that many animals got extinguished before it could be photographed or captured by canera. He tells us story about meeting tigers and bears near our house which is like unbelievable as we cant even find any single wild animals now as the village has been developed in full on cities

[@S08R01]

I am a very big fan of this channel. I just wanted to add some information. It is a story in the Mahabharata that Lord Krishna cursed Ashwathama(a warrior) to become a Yeti as Ashwathama had tried to murder an unborn child and its mother.

This series keeps me unbored in quarantine thanks guys 😊

[@thedukeofchutney468]

Great video. The most interesting thing about it to me was that the original Tibetan Yeti legends sounded like they were describing a creature identical to the ones that Native Americans had about Bigfoot/Sasquatch. I know it’s not hard evidence but I really think that it stands for something. Plus it also makes sense why they would compare the Yeti to bears. Since there are no great apes, aside from humans, anywhere near the area it makes sense that they would call them a man-bear due to bears being large furry animals, kind of like how when we call something a tiger shark or a sea lion we are not suggesting that they are actually a lion or tiger, but rather that they have qualities, like a mane or stripes that remind us of a lion or tiger.
