- hes made a channel called Fortnite Central.
Theres also a link in the description box.
Check it out if that sounds like your sort of thing.
Starting off at number 10 we have the Inca Girl.
This is the 500 year old preserved body of an Inca girl who was sacrificed as part of
a religious ritual.
She was discovered with others in 1999 at the summit of a volcano in Argentina.
After conducting tests, scientists concluded that she had been given drugs and alcohols
to make her more compliant in the ritual that ultimately killed her.
The incredibly cold and dry condition helped preserve her incredibly well - making it seem
as if she just fell asleep one day and never woke up …
Next up at number 9 we have Otzi.
In 1991, scientists at the Austrian-Italian border found the 5,300 year old preserved
body of a man.
His body had been preserved in the alps there.
He became Europes oldest known natural human mummy and has been studied in great detail
to learn about how the Copper Age Europeans lived.
They deduced that Otzi was about 45 years old when he died.
By examining his stomach contents, they even know what he ate for breakfast and lunch on
the day he died!
Moving on to number 8 we have The Cows.
The remains of Marcelin and Francine Domoulin were found preserved in the Swiss Alps.
They had been missing for 75 years.
The eldest couple of the daughter, who was 86 when her parents were finally discovered,
said that her parents went off one night in 1942 to milk the cows and just never came
home.
Their bodies were discovered in a glacier where a ski lift carried unwitting tourists
overhead.
Another one of their daughters said the news gave her a deep sense of calm that they had
finally been found.
Next up at number 7 we have Juanita.
This is the name of a mummy discovered in the Peruvian mountains in 1995.
She is believed to have been a sacrificial offering by inca priests to the volcano Mount
Ampato, where she remained buried in the snow for over 500 years.
The eruption of a neighboring volcano melted the ice that encased her tomb.
She is believed to have been about 13 years old at the time of her death.
Its thought the cause of death was a blow to back of her head which appears as a skull
fracture in x ray analysis.
Moving on to number 6 we have John Torrington.
He was an explorer who was part of an expedition to find the Norwest Passage.
The expedition ran into difficulties and John died of pneumonia.
He was buried on the remote Beechy Island in Canada.
His grave and some of the others were discovered in 1976.
His body was eventually exhumed in order to discover the cause of death - he was found
to be amazingly well preserved due to him being buried in the permafrost.
Next up at number 5 we have George Mallory.
He was an English mountaineer who was part of an expedition to be the first people to
climb mount everest.
They made their attempt in June 1924 but dissapeared on the North East ridge.
Their fate remained unknown for 75 years.
In 1999, his body was discovered at over 26,000 ft.
It was astonishingly well preserved due to the freezing conditions.
Moving on to number 4 now we have The Soldiers.
In 2004, the ice preserved bodies of 3 Austrian soldiers killed in WW1 were found near the
San Matteo mountain in Northern Italy.
The bodies were discovered at 11,160 ft up and officials said the bodies were exceptionally
well preserved considering they had been there for about 90 years at that point.
They were spotted by Maurizio Vincenzi, the director of a museum who was scanning the
glacier with binoculars when he noticed marks on it.
At number 3 now we have The Mystery Body.
In June 2015, a mummified body was discovered on Pico de Orizaba - Mexicos highest mountain.
It was one of a number of corpses that were uncovered as the glacier and ice packs melt.
Unlike the other bodies though, this one wasnt wearing any sort of climbing gear - just ordinary
clothes.
This sparked a theory that the person may have died when an airplane crashed into the
mountain in the 1990s.
And next up at number 2 we have The Others.
Im putting this one straight after the last one because they were found on the same mountain
- Pico de Orizaba.
These ones however were thought to be hikers from the 1960s.
The mountain has always been popular with hikers and these people were thought to have
died when an avalanche engulfed them.
Im not even sure if our editors are allowed to show you the pictures of them - its pretty
grizzly but anyway, theres the story.
And finally at number 1 we have the Polar Princess.
Also known as the Siberian Ice Maiden, this is the mummy of a woman who died in the 5th
century BC.
She was found in 19993 in South Central Russia.
Her body appeared to be undisturbed thanks to her subterranean burial chamber.
She was thought to have been in her 20s when she died although the cause of death is unknown.
Cannabis found near her tomb seems to suggest she used the drug to relieve some sort of
chronic pain.
A reconstruction of her face was created using her skull in conjunction with measurements
taken from the skulls and facial features of people in live in that area today.
Alright guys, hope you enjoyed that, hope youre having a nice day.
