Among the anomalous phenomena of the world, a separate line can be distinguished by the terrible, sometimes mystical death of people who climbed the mountain peaks. Rescue teams in such cases find only bloody mutilated bodies, most often without bones. In this case, all things, as a rule, remain in their places.
To whom such atrocities were not attributed - both UFOs, and Bigfoot, and even aliens from parallel worlds. In Russia, one of the most famous cases of the mysterious death of people in the mountains is the tragedy at the Dyatlov Pass. For several decades, researchers have not been able to get to the bottom of the truth, who killed the tourists. Meanwhile, the truth may lie right on the surface.
The famous writer, paleoethnologist Vladimir Degtyarev agreed to share with us his version of the mountain killers.
Vladimir Nikolaevich, who kills people on mountain passes and peaks?
- Why only on mountain peaks? This cold-blooded monster acts with equal success on the sea, in sandy and snowy deserts. Moreover, scientists are quite well aware of it - these are the so-called electric worms. Of course, this is not the official name of the phenomenon, and it appeared about seventy years ago.
Is there a description of these monsters and their way of life?
- You will be surprised, but the monster as such does not exist. For it we take an ordinary natural phenomenon, the action of which can be described by the existing laws of physics. Its most famous manifestation is the so-called St. Elmo's fires generated by a certain drain of electrical voltage - electric balls and "amoebas" shining with blue light that appear in the pre-storm weather at sea. They are safe for humans. The same lights of St. Elmo meet climbers on high mountain slopes. Shepherds in the Caucasus treat them well - these cheerful lights often dance on their shepherd's staffs. In deep mountain caves with these lights, cavers and other underground lovers are often found.
If these lights are harmless, how can they kill people?
Promotional video:
- Not so simple. Although the fires of St. Elmo are mistaken by scientists for harmless static electricity, I still do not recommend contact with them. The fact is that the blow of this fire can overtake a person much later, it will be sudden and very strong. I personally saw in Alma-Ata the conqueror of impregnable peaks, who rode in a wheelchair. Not long before that, he took St. Elmo's cold fire in a training camp at an altitude of one kilometer and exponentially washed himself with the cold fire. This man did not go to the mountains anymore … Do not joke with even the most low-discharge type of electrical energy.
This is probably a one-time case, because even children at school are taught how to use static electricity, which is safe …
- Quite right. Sixty years ago, synthetic materials came into vogue, from which trousers and shirts were sewn. They generated annoying static electricity. This garment had one curious property: it hugged the body tightly. Put on a nylon shirt or lavsan pants and you find yourself in a cocoon. Not just in a cloth cocoon, but also in an energy one. The fact is that static electricity is not dangerous in small quantities, but if a large amount of it is concentrated in one place …
What will happen?
- Maybe, for example, a terrible creature, known in Mongolia under the name Olgoi-khorhoi, will appear. It looks like a worm. It appears suddenly, slides down the dune with a breakneck speed, kills a person (or an animal), sucks blood, crushes bones … and the remains of the deceased creature are quickly cleaned up by small desert inhabitants. Numerous expeditions have repeatedly hunted for this "worm", but it never came out to people armed with knowledge and instruments.
Olgoy-khorhoy is about five meters long, half a meter thick, narrowed to the ends. Outwardly, it resembles a long, thick cigar. This worm was shot with bows and rifles, but they could not kill it. Here is just one example of how Olgoy-khorhoy killed a man: “… I thought someone had taken off his boots, pants, and a fur coat to dry. I went up and saw that in the clothes lying on the sand of the dune, one flat bloody mess. It smells like fried meat. I threw myself on my horse and galloped to the nearest aimak for help. I managed to gallop away in time. A huge worm rolled after me, wriggling in the dust."
Are there any more descriptions of the meeting with this creature?
- Yes, there are a lot of them! “It rolled down the sandy hill, meandering, but leaving no footprints in the sand. We were at a loss, stood rooted to the spot. Do not move your foot or arm. And Olgoy-khorhoy attacked the camel closest to him, instantly scorched it to the bone and disappeared. If you listen carefully to such stories, it becomes clear that this electric worm is a plasmoid. Something like ball lightning, only stretched in space and taking the shape of a spindle. This is the shape of the magnetic field in which the plasmoid appears. Moreover, it is the strength of the magnetic field that gives the plasmoid the size and power of the impact.
Where can you find such a monster?
- The lights of St. Elmo, which I spoke about at the beginning, appear in the ocean only during a thunderstorm or storm, this can be easily explained: it was in this place that a powerful magnetic field appeared for a while, which will then disappear, go away after a thunderstorm. In the Gobi Desert, the magnetic field is always present. Moreover, it should be noted that there is a special magnetic field. It is guided by huge underground tunnels filled with water, which itself is a good conductor of magnetic fields.
By the way, the plasmoid, known as Olgoy-khorhoy, has no guise. If it were not for the sand of the desert, which is screwed into a whirlwind, creating a certain appearance of a living entity, then no one would have seen how this "electric worm" kills people, sheep and camels. However, at the moment of the formation of the plasmoid, the quartz, current-conducting desert sand is attracted to the magnetic field of the "worm", thereby creating a visible body. But this body immediately disappears - the sand instantly crumbles as soon as the plasmoid is discharged against the protoplasm of a person or animal.
Plasmoids appear only in the sea, mountains and desert?
- Not at all. Similar plasmoids, enclosed in a magnetic cocoon, greatly disturb the polar explorers of Antarctica. There is even a whole epic about these creatures on the southern continent. And although the stories that make up these stories are based on facts observed not by illiterate Asian shepherds, but by serious polar scientists, the picture of observations is the same: “Suddenly, something like a huge worm, blue in color, is born from a snowy void. From this worm carries wild heat (at an external temperature of minus fifty degrees). He can bump into a person and kill him with an electric shock. Or it can slide down the antenna cable and get inside the radio station. In this case, both the radio station and the house where it was located will burn out. This happened more than once …"
These stories were told to me in Leningrad by a veteran of the Antarctic wintering, honored polar explorer Sergei Izotov, in the winter of 1979 visiting the writer Viktor Konetsky. I would take it for ordinary tales if Viktor Konetsky had not told me one simple fact: “We do not take our dead or deceased comrades to the mainland from our polar stations. We bury there, near the Mirny station. It should be so. There is already a fairly large cemetery. And Izotov added that sometimes relatives and friends do not need to look what happened to their men in that cold country.
So, Olgoy-khorhoy and the energy worms of Antarctica are one and the same phenomenon?
- In fact, yes! This is a red-hot plasmoid enclosed in a magnetic shell. The mountains give birth to it. Any mountain is always a big magnet and a big power plant, and the basis of the modern ice sixth continent is mountains. If you remove the ice, it turns out that Antarctica consists entirely of an archipelago of large and small islands of mountainous origin.
In Mongolia, mountains border the Gobi Desert on three sides. The Mongolian Altai, the spurs of the Tien Shan are in themselves a powerful battery that needs to be relieved from time to time, at least in the form of Olgoi-khorkhoi. The mountain peaks of Antarctica also release an electrical voltage that creates "electric worms", not sand, but snow-colored. American polar explorers, for example, have discovered such a ferocious entity as "cryon" in Antarctica. She also hunts for workers at polar stations, catches up and eats bones from the body. All this happens only when a storm rises and powerful magnetic fields walk over the mainland.
Are all the mountains of the planet at risk?
- Yes! Think about it: all the secret sacred places on the planet were erected at a great height. The Andes, Tibet, Himalayas, the Ural Mountains - all of them sacredly keep the secret of incomprehensible buildings located near their peaks. Where there were no mountains with the necessary minerals such as calcium, there was limestone (the prototype of calcium), which also solved the problems of ancient civilizations. For example, now it is forbidden to climb to the top of the Cheops pyramid. There is nothing but a stone and a tubular steel structure six meters high, with its end showing the true height of the pyramid. This steel structure does not need to be touched. You can simply raise your hand up to feel a decent electric shock.
Where does the electricity come from here in the desert? From a mountain called a pyramid. When one of our explorers of the pyramidal peaks began to descend from the top of the pyramid, behind him slowly rolled “a log of gray color, which either disappeared or appeared. The researcher paid tribute to him - a good Japanese flashlight. The log ran over that flashlight and did not crawl lower, it disappeared."
Another forbidden city. It is called Potala, located in Tibet, is the residence of the Dalai Lama and is located at the same height as Machu Picchu - 2,400 meters above sea level. In the Yucatan, in Tibet, in the Potala, energy is born by itself. They say that Genghis Khan wanted to feel like a god and for this he ordered the capture of the Potala in order to sit on a massive stone chair in the sacred hall. However, his warriors near the Potala were swept to shreds by some invisible force. Rashid ad-Din, the biographer of Genghis Khan's exploits, wrote that the soldiers were killed by "flying logs".
