- Alex2, on 08/21/2008, -3/+20So.. the iceman was a sheep shagger.
(not like anyone will read the article to disprove it) - diggenerate, on 08/21/2008, -2/+16FTA:
Since then, the ancient mummy has undergone a slew of examinations from which scientists have gleaned bits of information about the man’s last steps on Earth, ranging from his last meal (unleavened bread and meat) to the cause of death. The most recent verdict is the Iceman died of head trauma.
Here it says that he apparently died from head trauma, however I saw a documentary about him on Discovery and they said he died from an arrow wound which pierced his back severing the artery near his left clavicle. I wish they would make up their minds. - DeFex, on 08/21/2008, -1/+13MCSE
- Tallon29, on 08/21/2008, -0/+11... which would be 6000 years ago. Way to fail at math.
- pintomp3, on 08/21/2008, -1/+11"I wish they would make up their minds." things aren't as easy as they appear on bones or cold case.
- serif69, on 08/21/2008, -1/+9"Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, I'm just a caveman. I fell on some ice and later got thawed out by some of your scientists. Your world frightens and confuses me!"
- wastelander, on 08/21/2008, -0/+8It'll never stand up in court.
- inactive, on 08/21/2008, -0/+6Just ask Mccain - they probably worked together.
- DigSomeMore, on 08/21/2008, -2/+8I think he is missing his pimp cup, otherwise he was set...
- gldfshnpcklejar, on 08/21/2008, -0/+5Why couldn't everyone just be friends back then?!
- Cerialthriller, on 08/21/2008, -0/+5i think the current theory is he was hit with the arrow, then either lost alot of blood, fell, and hit his head or his attacker bashed him in the head after he shot him.
- scarwars, on 08/21/2008, -1/+5Ask McCain, he was there
- suckanucka, on 08/21/2008, -1/+5I appreciate your criticism... but honestly I consider this practice. It is nice having a medium for people to criticize your ability to be clever and witty. Its all in fun...when I say something stupid and get called out for it with negative diggs and comments, I'm happy to admit it was stupid too!
For example, you generalizing my comment history into one statement isn't fair, funny, or informative. - inigomntoya, on 08/21/2008, -1/+5I heard he fell, died, and his corpse was used as target practice hundreds of years later by a group of pesky Roman kids.
- MattB123, on 08/21/2008, -0/+3He must have been put there to test our faith.
- daRoach, on 08/21/2008, -2/+5Caveman Lawyer?
- praisethelard, on 08/22/2008, -0/+3"Hey, wanna see a dead body?"
- markedOne, on 08/21/2008, -0/+3frozen fritz is the best one
- FeloniusMonkey, on 08/21/2008, -0/+2Where's Pauly Shore when we need him?
- chubbybubba, on 08/21/2008, -1/+3the spermage probably happened 5000 years later. (science can be oh so lonely)
- inactive, on 08/21/2008, -2/+4Blasphemy. The Earth is only 4000 years old. Vote Republican.
/win - teh_techie, on 08/21/2008, -0/+2Ok. He was a sheep shagger. Thanks for letting me know!
- Rikkochet, on 08/21/2008, -0/+1This article would have been stellar as an Onion article.
- joshuasmaximus, on 08/21/2008, -0/+1Looks like a job for Cold Case. That would make a great episode. If the show didn't suck.
- MattB123, on 08/21/2008, -0/+1We-esin on sum ju-uuuce, bud-deee.
- MarkJ, on 08/21/2008, -0/+1You owe me a new keyboard
- chrissku, on 08/21/2008, -2/+3Obviously he was an elitist prick.....

Stimpy: You're the pitcher, I'm the catcher! You're the pitcher, I'm the catcher! See? - Iztikeit, on 08/21/2008, -1/+2Can't blame them for messing up the autopsy of a 5,000 year old dude.
- DrJG, on 08/22/2008, -0/+1Not entirely wrong but research grants can only be used for the purpose it is given for, and those people are bright enough to make billions if they gave up working for humanity which they are. People in intellectual fields get paid very little comparatively, and when they wish to make an easier living they have to pander and step down from the pinnacles of doing best, The least you and we can do is to respect and honour them for their commitment and the free benefits we get from their work, while they get little really, personally. Even Hawking had to write a book for laymen to be able to secure his children's future.
- rowlodge, on 08/21/2008, -0/+1probably just accidentally fell on his own arrow.
- DrJG, on 08/22/2008, -0/+1Your original comment was funny, and this explanation is honest and good, and the only thing is some idiots carry the idea beyond limits of decency - no, actually what is worse is that serious discussions get drowned out by their noise and they think it is fun. You are all right, and that is meant the English way.
- datastorageguy, on 08/21/2008, -0/+1Did he sell insurance on TV?
- DrJG, on 08/22/2008, -0/+1"More speculative science brought to you by the people who don't know ***** - but will tell you something cool so they can get that research grant" S1L3NTC

- yournamehere, on 08/21/2008, -2/+2so that would be 6023.. this is 2008
- Boagrius, on 08/21/2008, -2/+2After thawing the first words her heard his first day of high school were:
"Shoooosh, I wouldn't piss on your gums if your teeth were on fire!"
Buuuuuuuuuuudy - sorensec, on 08/21/2008, -0/+0when the scientists are done, maybe they can get started on that frozen bigfoot hoax
- inactive, on 08/21/2008, -4/+4That dood is a stiff!
- peanutbread, on 08/21/2008, -0/+0damn, i thought this was going to be about bigfoot.
- houndeyex, on 08/21/2008, -1/+1Yeah, he's a pretty serious ***** erectus.

- inactive, on 08/21/2008, -5/+4Ha ha waht a funny name Ötzi, Frozen Fritz
- AndrewMoyer, on 08/21/2008, -1/+0So he was from 1996? We should play Ace of Bass on endless loop to make him feel comfortable... and call him Steve.
- inactive, on 08/21/2008, -2/+1I dont know what he did then, but if you put a beer in his ass he keeps it real cold.
- TheSalmonThief, on 08/21/2008, -3/+2older, the earth was created around 4015 BC I believe
