14 minutes on how and where George Mallory gave up his 1924 Everest summit attempt

This presentation illustrates George Mallory and Andrew Irvine's 8th June 1924 Everest summit attempt. The presentation will take you away from the often repeated narrative, and hopefully persuasively show what they actually planned, where they climbed, how and why they had to give up, (the accident that crippled Mallory), why they each took a separate route back, how Mallory's immense tenacity is demonstrated, and how they sadly lost their lives.
