How horrible is the 5-kilometer no-man's land in Tibet? Why can't many people come back once they go in?

In June, 22, Li rode his bicycle alone into Hoh Xil. On July 6th, he claimed that he had heard the wolf's cry the night before, that is, from that day on, he never heard from him again. On July 11, I received an alarm call from the staff of Hoh Xil Nature Reserve. After several days of search and rescue, I finally found a body in a pool around National Highway 19, and confirmed that the deceased was Li.

In July of the same year, Huang Yumeng, a female college student in Nanjing, traveled from Nanjing to Golmud, Qinghai alone because she longed for poetry and distant fields. Twenty-four days after losing contact, his ID card, student ID card and other related belongings were found in Qingshuihe, no man's land in Hoh Xil, and human skeleton tissue was also found at the scene. Finally, through DNA comparison, it was confirmed that it was Huang Yumeng's remains.

Preface of Huang Yumeng's search and rescue screen 1

There are four no-man's land in China, namely, no-man's land in Hoh Xil, no-man's land in Qiangtang, no-man's land in Altun and no-man's land in Lop Nur. The largest one is the no-man's land in Hoh Xil, with a land area of 6, square kilometers. Of course, Hoh Xil is also the worst environment and the highest risk factor among the four no-man's land, which is the place that fans dream of.

Hoh Xil spans three super-large provinces. Many people's lifelong goal is to cross this land of Hoh Xil. However, many people sleep here in order to cross this land. What is the mysterious attraction of no man's land? Why do so many people risk their lives to try to cross it?

There are many kinds of wild beasts, which have extremely strong attack and lethality on people. No man's land is called the forbidden area of life. In fact, this name is not correct. To be precise, no man's land should be the forbidden area of human life. Although there are no people in the no-man's land, there are many traces of life here, because there are many wild animals living here, and there are more than 25 kinds of wild animals, all of which are full of attack.

Tibetan wolves are the most common among them. They are not only ferocious in nature, large in size and strong in body, but also very agile and extremely aggressive to people. Everyone knows that wolves are typical social animals, and the number of each group is about 5 to 1. It is difficult for a wolf to deal with a group of wolves, and even a small group is enough to kill a huge expedition.

Tibetan wolves in no man's land

Some go on road trip people who passed by Tibet's no man's land revealed that wolves in droves can be seen everywhere in the no man's land section of Hoh Xil. Wolves are not afraid of people at all. Even when they are driving, they will chase the driving vehicles. As soon as they see the cars stop, they will immediately run around and sniff at the wheels, and they will also bite the wheels hard. If someone rashly gets off the bus at this time, it is very likely that they will be besieged and dismembered by wolves.

There is a very strange abandoned public toilet in no man's land in Tibet. It is rumored that people would rather hold it in broad daylight than go in for convenience, because a very strange thing happened in the abandoned toilet, and passers-by were afraid to spend the night here, so that people would not stay here, even if they didn't want to stay for one more second. In 216, two explorers who rode bicycles alone across the new Tibet line happened to see this public toilet when passing through here. In order to avoid the cold and save their strength, they chose this as their campsite. Unfortunately, in the evening, they were besieged by wolves, and they were eaten alive by wolves and lost their lives. There are far more frightening things than wolves in Tibet's no man's land.

What is more terrible than the no man's land of Tibetan wolves is the complex terrain. In fact, the area of Tibet's no-man's land is much larger than 5 kilometers, because it is too large, and no one has ever traveled all over Tibet's no-man's land so far. The terrain here is complex and changeable, with towering and steep snow-capped mountains, endless Gobi desert and desperate desert. These are hidden killers, all of which can be fatal.

In no man's land, you can often encounter marshes. Don't underestimate them. Sometimes marshes can kill experienced field survival explorers without blowing off dust. Because the temperature difference between day and night in no man's land is very large, many professional explorers can't judge which part of the area is a swamp and which part is a safe area. It seems that the surface is very solid. Once you step on it, you will fall into the swamp. Once you fall into the swamp, the consequences will be unimaginable. If you fail to implement the rescue in time and correctly, you will be submerged in the swamp and lose your life.

Beautiful marshland in no man's land

People are more afraid of quicksand in the desert than marshland. The characteristics of quicksand are similar to that of water, and it is a kind of sand that can flow freely. Because of the unstable foundation at the bottom of the desert, some sand can flow freely, so it is called quicksand. It's almost difficult for someone to recognize quicksand, because it's exactly like a desert, only the sand is a little thinner. If you are unfortunately walked into quicksand, the possibility of survival is very low. It only takes a few minutes or even seconds for quicksand to devour a person, and the witnesses are scared when they think about it. 4 No Man's Land Terror III

What is more frightening than the terrain is the unpredictable bad weather in no man's land. The local elevation is over 5 kilometers, and the highest elevation is Bukadaban Peak on the northern edge of Kunlun Mountain, which is more than 6,8 meters above sea level. Even the lowest point, Baozixia, is more than 4,1 meters above sea level, so it can experience four seasons of climate change in one day.

It's common for the temperature to drop suddenly in a windy storm. One second it may be sunny, and the next second it will be cloudy. In just a few minutes, it will rain heavily, and the temperature will drop sharply, reaching about MINUS 4 degrees. Without shelter and warm things, it is difficult for people to survive in this temperature, and many people freeze to death in their sleep. According to relevant statistics, the number of people who freeze to death in winter in no man's land is less than that in summer, because the clothes people carry in winter are warm enough to keep warm, while the clothes prepared in summer are less, so they can't survive when the temperature drops sharply and stay there forever.

The gale in no-man's land is unimaginable to ordinary people, and it can reach level 12 in the worst case. It is conceivable that if there is not enough safety protection measures, people can be blown away by the gale at any time and place, which may blow to cliffs or abyss, or freeze to death, whichever one can be fatal.

The mobile phone has no signal at all in no man's land, so it is difficult to ask the outside world for help in case of danger. Many people think that there is a signal in the no-man's land, so they just rush in with their mobile phones. Here, mobile phones have almost no function, just proper furnishings. Because there is no signal here, the mobile phone can't be used normally, let alone calling or sending messages to the outside world.

if you can't use the Beidou satellite and its trajectory, you will almost never return, and you can only become a dish for wild animals. When you encounter difficulties that you can't overcome, you can't send a message for help to the outside world, and there are few people around the no-man's land, so it is impossible to meet people by chance. At this time, we not only have to bear great physical pain, but also face great psychological pressure. People with average endurance can easily break through the defense, and this kind of pain is unimaginable.

Explorers Crossing No Man's Land 6 Conclusion

Someone once said that the scenery in no man's land is as beautiful as it is horrible, but compared with life, the scenery is insignificant. I hereby advise you not to blindly and easily go to the no-man's land alone, where the risk factor is too high for ordinary people to afford.

Remember not to try to challenge nature, because human beings are so small compared with nature, just like a dust in the universe. Humans should fear nature and life.
