Summary
In part two we talk about the the mysteries surrounding Ötzi's final days and hours. We explore what his last meal tells about the era, the harrowing details of his violent death, and the eerie curse that some believe haunts those who’ve come into contact with him. From the meticulous preservation of his body in the South Tyrol Museum to the decades-long legal battle over the finder's reward, we cover every twist in the tale. Tune in to discover how a 5,300-year-old mummy continues to fascinate and perplex us today.
