Dennis "Tink" Bell's remains were found among rocks exposed by a receding glacier at Admiralty Bay on King George Island, situated off the Antarctic Peninsula after he fell into a crevasse on July 26, 1959, and his team was unable to recover his body after the accident, the British Antarctic Survey (BAS) said.

Dennis “Tink” Bell was 25 years old when he fell into a crevasse on King George Island. Over the decades, a glacier receded, and a scientific team from Poland found his remains this year.

Dennis Bell's remains were sent for testing at King’s College London, where they were matched with DNA samples from his brother and sister.
