SHOCKING..!! A 100-year-old leg on Everest...!?

About 100 years ago, in june 1924, a young british mountaineer along with his partner George Mallory traveled to the Himalayas. But he went missing after climbing Everest. A century passed in this order. But unexpectedly found his leg! Yes... a mountaineer's leg was found in the Himalayas, about a hundred years old.
As part of this... it was thought to be the leg of the british youth who disappeared during the Everest expedition in 1924. On an expedition last month, the National Geographic documentary team... found an old worn leather boot with steel hobo nails. The name "AC Irvine" is embroidered on the socks. While the discovery of Mallory’s body, marked by deep rope-marks that might indicate a fall, answered some questions about the circumstances of their deaths, it left many others unanswered.
 If they had not lost their lives while descending the mountain, they would have set a record! Sir Edmund Hillary would have achieved this amazing feat 29 years before Tenzing Norgay! Although Mallory's remains were found in 1999, Irwin's remains were not. His leg was recently found in this order. As a result, Irwin's great-granddaughter's dna was compared with that, and it was found that it could not be his. Irwin's niece says that it is really unbelievable. On this occasion, Irwin-Mallory's last picture taken before going on the mountain climb came to light.
