Such A Stupid Way To Die - 1971
The biggest single killer in the mountains is accidental hypothermia - exposure to cold. What makes it such a stupid way to die is detailed in this dramatised case study of a group of five people out for a weekend tramp. One of them doesn't come back and the film gives the reasons why he died, and what could have been done to prevent his unnecessary death. DV file of BETA SP telecini of 35mm film.
