Curse of "The Iceman"

A few days late for Halloween, but creepy nonetheless: People who have been in contact with the frozen remains of a Copper Age hunter are dying at a rapid clip.

Back in 1991, an amateur climber found the 5,200 year old remains of a Copper Age hunter frozen in glacier ice in the Austrian Alps. The remarkably well-preserved body, found with tools and weapons, was dubbed "Otzi the Iceman".

Since that time, many of the people who have come in contact with Otzi have died, including the guy who originally found him, the pathologist who examined the body prior to its removal from the glacier, the pathologists mountaineer guide, and several other team members.

Everyone in the scientific community is scoffing at the idea of a "Curse of The Iceman", but I'm not so sure...
