Otzi’s Last Moments – CConroy

Otzi last days

Otzi, also know as the Iceman, was a mid 40 year old man. One day in Italy he got into a fight with some people and got a wound in his hand. Since the people were still going after Otzi, he decided to go somewhere where they couldn’t find him. So he went high up the Ötztal Alps. When he was up there someone that was hunting for some food and thought he was a animal so the person came up behind him and “BAM”. The arrow was shot into the left shoulder of the iceman. The arrow went right through the bone and started bleeding rapidly. He went into hemorrhagic shock which killed him almost instantly.

A couple thousand of years later, a group of kids were hiking up the Ötztal Alps. and wanted to go a different way then the trail everyone else was going on. When the group started walking they notice something protruding out of the path and went up to it. They noticed it was a dead body so they took some pictures before the police would come and retrieve it.

The Iceman was found with yellow leathery skin, one finger remaining, a hole in the back of his head, some of his tools and materials laying all around him (not with him), and the arrowhead lodged under his left shoulder blade.
