let me tell you about Mallory and Irvine.

AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH YES

And, like, the contemporary mysteries around their whole expedition! The conspiracy theories! The drama! The fact that Kodak is specifically keeping certain processes and pieces of equipment around in case anyone ever finds Mallory's camera! The accusations of nationalist wrongdoing! The fact Mallory's body appears to have disappeared!

I am fascinated by Everest dramatics in particular, but Mallory-and-Irving related Everest dramatics are the weirdest.
