Remains of British man who died in Antarctica found in melting glacier 66 years later

The remains of British meteorologist Dennis "Tink" Bell, who fell into a crevasse in Antarctica in 1959, have been discovered after 66 years. A melting glacier exposed his remains, which were identified through DNA testing. The discovery, made by a Polish Antarctic team, brought closure to his family. Personal belongings, including radio equipment and a wristwatch, were also recovered along with his remains.
