Mallory & Irvine: The Rashomon Effect

Discusses how the stories about George Mallory and Andrew Irvine's 1924 climb have been influenced by the Rashomon Effect. Also discusses how the finding of George Mallory's body has been influenced by the Rashomon effect. Much of this content was originally part of the "Watch" video and thus it discusses how handling the body affected the Watch. At issue is that allegedly, the watch cover was missing when found and the question is with the rough handling of the body, was it likely that the cover simply fell out of the pocket when the "searchers" were looking for the camera.
