Joe Rogan Experience #2543 - MrBallen · Aired Aug 20, 2026
Claim summary · not a verbatim quotation
The Dyatlov Pass search party found nine sets of footprints leading away from the tent.
The finding
What the evidence shows
The tracks were real and they are one of the strangest parts of the case. Searchers followed a single file trail of prints downslope for close to a mile, made by people in socks, bare feet or one boot, with none leading back. What the record does not support is a clean count of nine. Accounts from the search put it at eight or nine sets.
