Found the morons: 2 Oregon men die from exposure in a forest after they went out to look for Sasquatch



You can't make this shit up....The 59-year-old and 37-year-old appear to have died from exposure, the Skamania County Sheriff’s Office said via Facebook. The weather and the men’s lack of preparedness led the office to draw that conclusion, it said.

Dying of exposure is terrible. And there’s worse things one can do than look for Big Foot.

Not saying they wrre drinking, but going sasquach hunting on xmas eve has the hallmarks of "hold my beer and watch this"......

Anyway, drinking can make you not feel as cold as you should and could definately help get them lost in the woods at night.

Yeah, I'm assuming overconsumption of alcohol was involved.
