Dozens of women have asked to be made pregnant by a prehistoric iceman who died 5,000 years ago. The body of "Otzi the Iceman" was discovered by hikers in 1991 as ice melted in the Schnalstal glacier, high in the Italian Alps.Otzi ManÖtzi the Ice Man was found near Hauslabjoch in the Ötzal Alps in September 1991 by two walkers. The Ice Man died approximately 5200 years ago. At death he was between 40 and 50 years old and suffered from a number of medical conditions. He turned into a mummy accidentally almost immediately by the freezing weather conditions that turned him into the Ice Man. Scientists believe that Ötzi was caught in a heavy snowfall, fell asleep, and froze to death. Scientists have concluded this because there were no signs of predator attacks. They believe that the body must have been covered with snow almost immediately. (1) (2) (3) (4) Otzi reconstructions

Seriously why do they want to make babies with corpse? He was 5'2 and his genetic deficiencies and shortcomings are unknown. that is a huge risk to take.

He doesn't look how i would expect an ancient man to look like. Not primitive enough.

5000 years isn't that long ago- already in the Neolithic- mankind was already modern

I know his mtDNA has been tested and it belongs to the haplogroup K. I wonder if anyone has made any test on the Y-chromosome....
