Missing in Alaska

I’ve watched a few episodes of Missing in Alaska, and while some of their theories are a bit far-fetched, one thing is rather scary. They state that 738,000 people live in Alaska. And over the past 20 years more than 60,000 people have gone missing. The show states 5 out of every 1,000 people go missing, but the 60,000 missing over 20 years means 3,000 people go missing every year.  That’s 8.2 people go missing every day.

Now the show chases folk tales, government conspiracy and even aliens. So far they haven’t proven why anyone went missing, but it’s mildly entertaining. With more than 3 decades of being a police officer, what scares me is the number of people that actually go missing. With only 738,000 people for the state’s population, and they’re losing 3,000 people a year, the whole state would disappear in 246 years.

I highly doubt the state will lose its population, but where are these people going? Is there a portal to another dimension? Or just some really dangerous predatory humans kidnapping and killing people? And if so, where are the bodies? I mean, 60,000 bodies is a lot of bones to hide. Personally, I think it’s a combination of things. You know, the regular dangers of living in a wilderness or sparsely populated area. Things like murder and kidnapping, getting lost in the wilderness, or being eaten by wolves or bears. I mean, the list goes on.

I like the unusual, and I get a kick out of the ancient alien shows, but I don’t believe these people disappear because of zombies, demon wolves, gnomes or mutated monkeys. Granted, you can hide a lot of things in the Alaskan wilderness, but come on, mutated monkeys? How about zombies? With all the interest in killing zombies, if they existed Alaska would be flooded with loonies hunting zombies. That would be way too cool to pass up.

And yes, zombies and mutated monkeys are both episodes of Missing in Alaska on the History Channel. So were the gnomes and demon wolves. I’m not sure who’s funding the show, but these 3 grown men go roaming around the state with cameras acting like they’re doing scientific investigations. They have yet to find a body, alive or dead, of these missing people, or of the demons and monsters they’re looking for. I’ve yet to see any actual police involved in these investigations. They do claim that one of the team is a former police officer… And the experts they consult are as nutty as the cast of the show.

Well upcoming episodes include vicious artic mermaids lurking under the ice, an ancient warrior tribe still hiding in the wilderness that decapitates their enemies and shape-shifters in the river. I’m not sure how long this show will last before it too goes missing, but people in Alaska need to be careful. I’m not sure about you, but I’d hate to be remembered as fodder for one of these episodes.
