After 100 years of speculation surrounding his fate, the partial remains of Andrew Comyn “Sandy” Irvine are believed to have been discovered on the Central Rongbuk Glacier below the North Face of Mount Everest. Irvine vanished while attempting to conquer the world’s tallest peak in 1924, along with climbing partner and renowned mountaineer George Mallory.
The mystery of whether they reached the summit before their deaths has intrigued climbers and historians for decades.

“Any expedition to Everest follows in the shadow of Irvine and Mallory,” said , who made the discovery with climbers and filmmakers and while filming for an upcoming project. “Sometimes in life the greatest discoveries occur when you aren’t even looking. This was a monumental and emotional moment for us and our entire team on the ground, and we just hope this can finally bring peace of mind to his descendants, and the climbing world at large.”
