A National Geographic documentary crew has found the possible partial remains of Andrew Irvine, a British climber who vanished on Mount Everest 100 years ago.
A National Geographic documentary team has found on Mount Everest what they believe is the partial remains of a British climber who vanished 100 years ago during a quest to become among the first to summit the world’s tallest mountain.
' Mallory's body was found in 1999, but there was no evidence that could point to the two having reached Everest's summit at 29,032 feet, according to The Associated Press. The apparent discovery of Irvine's remains could narrow the search for a Kodak Vest Pocket camera lent to the climbers by expedition member Howard Somervell.
