Did George Mallory reach Mount Everest's summit?

Unfortunately, 99% of the evidence (but not the hopes of well-wishers) indicate he could not possibly have succeeded. The main reasons are: 1) Insufficient oxygen--eight hours for a minimum 12-hour climb. 2) Totally inadequate clothing warm only to 14F and in still air.(They were caught in a howling blizzard for 2 hours.) 3) The extreme difficulty of the Second Step cliff It is true that had Mallory taken his partner Andrew Irvine's remaining oxygen, and continued up alone, he might (1%) have reached the top.

But Mallory's corpse exhibited severe rope-jerk injury, showing the two were roped together in a fall.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
