Hello and welcome back to the Most Amazing Channel on the internet.
I am your host Rebecca Felgate and today we are talking about the Top 10 Scary things
found frozen in ice.
Ice has the ability to preserve things in time - which means when they are found, it
is hard to know exactly how long they have been there and under what circumstances they
were left, making it all the more eeire.
I went ice fishing with our former channel producer Hayley… a few weeks ago and it
was awesome, although I have to say there is this phenomenon where the ice cracks when
it expands, which is a good thing as it means it is getting thicker, but either way it is
terrifying as it makes the MOST INTENSE SOUND! pics?
Before I tell you what scary things are going on beneath the ice let me tell you about a
new channel in the network - Top 10 Beyond the Screen

10 - The Ice Finger of Death
And underwater phenomenon was caught on camera in Antarctica and dubbed the Ice Finger of
Death.
Classic Daily Express headline.
Footage of the phenomenon was featured on my boy David Attenborough’s frozen planet
documentary series.
It seems the stalactite forms when a pocket of ocean freezes - and when it touches the
sea floor, it freezes and kills everything around it - hence its name.
Its like a slow and dramatic underwater lightning strike.
9 - UFO Landing spot What is this weird pattern here?
It seems that two friends came across this weird formation in a frozen lake in Utah.
Like I am honestly baffled.
It kind of looks like frogspawn which is my least favourite thing of all time….
Are they alien eggs?
It seems that actually they are tiny holes in the ice with something visible underneath.
This really tugs at my Tryophobia and makes me feel NOT good.
Not good indeed.
I DO NOT feel good about it.
8 - Thousands of Fish Frozen In Time
An entire schol of fish were found frozen on the coast of Norwegian Island, Lovund in
2014.
We’re talking thousands if not hundreds of thousands!
The photographer discovered the group of fish when they were walking their dog….you can
see the dog looking pretty excited about the whole thing.
The ice was so thick that it could be walked on….although it made for a weird frozen
fish path!
It was thought the fish had been frozen for a week or more.
This isn’t the only time this has happened either, in 2017, a hiker came across a wall
of frozen fish in a lake in South Dakota.
They look like they’re mid swim.
This is such a haunting image!
A scary thing found frozen in ICE CREAM up next at number 7 - A Catheter
I LOVE ice cream but this really puts a spanner...or catheta...in the works.
How GRIM!
Imagine tucking in to your lovely bowl of chocolate double caramel when you come across
something hard and unwelcome.
Theeeen imagine finding out it is a catheter - a medical device usually used to drain urine
from your bladder.
In 2017 a family from the Three Rivers area of Quebec found a catheter in a container
of coaticook ice cream.
Luckily they were not on the receiving end of any infections as a result.
The ice cream company and provincial authorities were working together to discover how the
instrument made its way to the gourmet ice cream tub.
SO Speaking of ice cream - we have the ice cream killer and her victims at number 6
Estibaliz Carranza murdered two men and hid them in a freezer below an ice cream shop,
earning her the nickname The Ice Cream Killer.
She owned a popular ice cream parlour in Vienna, where she committed her crimes.
She killed her husband, then her next lover with a gun and then chopped up their bodies
with a chainsaw because they didnt impregnate her.
She then stored their body parts in ice cream tubs and hid them in industrial freezers,
however when her basement was renovated the parts were found frozen
in storage.
GRIM.
5 - Skeleton Lake The mystery of Skeleton Lake has yet to be
resolved.
Up in the Himalaya’s in Northern India there is a lake that is frozen most of the year
round, but in the summer months starts to thaw.
The lake got its name when a ranger was in the area and noticed piles of bones protruding
from the melting ice.
On further investigation there were hundreds of bones.
A team came to investigate the bodies and discovered over 300 of them.
They all died due to blunt froce trauma to the head and date back to 850 AD.
It is possible they were sacrificed in some way.
4 - Otzi the iceman In September 1991, two German Tourists were
hiking in the Otzal Alps near the Austrian and Italian border.
As they were walking on a glacier, they found a body partially sticking out of the ice.
Helmut and Erika Simon thought the body was of a more recently deceased hiker, but when
authorities came to extract the body, they discovered it was 5,300 years old.
It is definitely scary to find a corpse, but how fascinating that they found one of the
oldest known bodies to date.
Incredibly, scientists were able to discover that he was around 45 years old and had died
from an arrow to the shoulder, leading him to bleed to death.
They were also able to determine it was spring when he died, that he had eaten chamois and
deer meat with herb bread and fruits two hours before his death.
Something else unearthed with Otzi … something silent and unseen but seemingly very deadly,
we have the Otzi Curse- 3 It seems that after Otzi was pulled from the
ice, seven people closely associated with his discovery and retrieval died untimely
deaths.
Helmut Simon, who discovered the body, went missing 13 years after the mummy’s discovery
- in the same mountain range.
After 8 days his body was found - he had fallen 300 feet to his death.
One of the team members who found Simon’s body also died just hours after his funeral.
The list goes on - In 1992 Rainer Henn who placed Otzi’s remains in Body Bag - died
in a car crash on way to giving a speech about the oce man.
In 1993, Kurt Fritz who helped transport the remains died in an avalanche.
Rainer Holz, a man who made a film about the ice man, died shortly after from a brain tumor,
Tom Loy, a researcher who worked in Otzi’s clothing died of a blood disease and Konrad
Spindler - a leading expert on the ice man, died after joking about the curse.
He said: I think it's a load of rubbish.
It is all a media hype.
The next thing you will be saying I will be next."
2 - Zombie Disease Coughs and sneezes spread diseases.
That is what my Nanna used to say.
I think we will all start saying : diseases under ice will no longer play nice.
Why?
Well as global warming mels previously impenetrable ice, ancient viruses that have laid dormant
thousands of years with no modern cures are being unearthed.
In 2016 a 12 year old boy died and thousands of reindeers were culled after being exposed
to thawed anthrax, baffling locals who had no idea where it came from.
It turned out melting Permafrost was exposing the nastoes, which scientists are calling
zombie diseases as they are, you know, back from the dead.
While anthrax was an issue, it wasn’t the worst thing to come about as we know what
it is and how to treat it.
Scientists are more worried about the pandora’s box of disease still to come as the ice continues
to melt.
1 - The Victims of Rainbow Valley This is actually really awful so … brace
yourself.
Mount Everest is the tallest mountain in the world.
Since Edmund Hillary became the first human to summit in 1953, 4,000 people have followed,
but a lot of people simply don’t make it back down.
It is thought that 300 people have died trying to summit the mountain.
Because of the treacherous conditions, it is too risky to rescue their bodies and most
have simply been left where they are.
Some have even become landmarks, like Green boots, Tsewang Paljor, an Indian climber who
died in 1996.
The ascent to the top of Everest is often called rainbow valley or rainbow ridge because
of the visible brightly coloured clothing of the dead.
There they are...just laying there frozen in the ice….forever.
SO that was the Top 10 Scary things found frozen under ice.
Which of these things scared you the most?
I think in real terms walking across fish frozen in a wave would freak me out - but
of course seeing any kind of human remains would
be awful….. and… oh… the ancient diseases!
Yikes!
A lot of scary stuff in ice!
