Maybe his leg injuries were so bad he couldn't reach water but even then I don't know if you'd die of dehydration that quickly. But also possible he fell and hit his head or something.LTO wrote:I can't imagine how he died so quickly. Maybe the injuries were bad, a broken bone pierced the skin or something.

Hypothermia is a distinct possibility. I don't know the exact weather conditions for last week but looking at the "mountain forecast" for today, the Fan Si Pan Weather Summary notes: Heavy rain (total 146mm), heaviest during Sun afternoon. Very mild (max 12°C on Fri morning, min 11°C on Fri night). Winds decreasing (strong winds from the W on Fri night, light winds from the SW by Sun afternoon), that gives a calculated wind chill factor of 0C. Without suitable clothing a "bivy sack/exposure bag" of some sort and fire starting kit, chances of survival if you are stuck out for a protracted time would be be very slim. Of course lack of access to water and food will exacerbate the situation.

Cause of death could have been anything...hypo or hyperthermia, extreme blood liss, shock, severe head injury, venoumous snake/spider/insect bite, etc...
Until an autopsy has been conducted and the cause of death is released, everything is pure speculation.
Condolonces to the deceaseds family and friends. Take solace in knowing that Aiden passed away doing an activity which he obviously enjoyed.

3 days? I've seen people go for a dump longer & not felt the need to send out a search party.

I'll confess to clicking on a "similar topic" whilst lurking and not realizing how old it was until after reading it.

Bumping old threads can easily happen when on phones. The similar topics show at the bottom and sometimes can be mistaken for other topics in the active threads view....by me anyway.Anchor Moy wrote: ↑Sat May 04, 2019 3:51 pmYou are bumping up a 3 year old thread to diss someone who died ? I take it that you read the thread before you commented ?
Despite what angsta states, it’s clear from reading through his posts that angsta supports the free FreePalestine movement.

It wasn't so much the bumping, but I was a bit shocked by the comment, considering that if you read the thread you know that the search party found the guy's dead body on the mountain. So my post to Lost50 was intended to be more like - did you actually read the thread and think before you made a joke comment, or did you just comment without even reading what happened ?violet wrote: ↑Sat May 04, 2019 6:30 pmBumping old threads can easily happen when on phones.
