In a lost corner of Tibet, a team of international scientists have uncovered a 500-year-old body... perfectly intact.
It wasn't embalmed like the Egyptian pharaohs. Nor was it preserved in a glacier like the ice mummies of the Alps and Andes. So, why has this body never decayed?
Its existence is a mystery that Victor Mair, one of the world's top anthropologists and his team of forensic experts, are determined to solve.
Their astonishing revelation - this man actually mummified himself.
