Figure 1 George Leigh Mallory with the climbing team that was the first ever to break the 8000 m barrier (Mt Everest, 1922), and no supplementary oxygen was used in the process. A few days later, 2 other members of this expedition, G. Finch and G. Bruce, did use supplementary oxygen to climb a few hundred feet higher (∼100 m) than Mallory's party. Left to right: Henry Morshead, George Mallory, Howard Somervell, and Edward Norton. Mt Everest Basecamp, Rongbuk Glacier, Tibet. Image reproduced with permission of Anne Russell.
