I feel like you would need opposable thumbs for that.

The whole thing just didn't add up.

But for the Nevada Triangle, Steve Fawcett's tragedy is just the tip of the iceberg.

Because like we said, he's one of 2,000.

To name a few, there's Lieutenant Leonard C. Lydon's military plane in 1941, then a B-24 bomber in 1943 called the Lucky Lee, along with one of the rescue planes looking for it, Lieutenant David Steeves in 1957, Charles Ogle in 1964, Hawthorne Nevada Airlines Flight 708 in 1969, Major Ross E. Mulhare in 1986, the list goes on.

And some of these disappearances are even more unexplainable than fossil

Let's revisit Hawthorne, Nevada Airlines Flight 708 in February 1969.

It was transporting 32 passengers from Nevada back to California.

The round-trip flight was specifically for high rollers, hence the plane's nickname, the Gambler's Special.

Midway through the short flight, the plane's communications dropped.

It had vanished.

Rescue teams searched the Sierra Nevada mountains through hail and rain.

According to some accounts, these weather conditions caused two rescue aircraft to crash.

Five rescuers even died.

Six months passed before the wreckage was finally found on the top of Mount Whitney, the highest point in the Sierras.

Like with Fawcett, an investigation revealed no aircraft malfunctions.

Let's go back even further to July 2nd, 1957.

A man walked up to a campsite in California's Kings Canyon National Park.

He was disheveled, a bit gaunt.

He told campers his name was Lieutenant David Steves.
