I'm going to go against the common thread here and predict no terror link, for real.

I'm betting some wacky "adventurer/thrill seeker" types, or maybe science nerds on a bender.

“No names and/or where they’re from.”

Usually, if the MSM fails to identify the subject by affiliation, it means he’s a Democrat. But that doesn’t mean these guys couldn’t be Democrats AND terrorists.
