As we all know that mount everest located in himalaya mountains take place in Nepal, Asia. It is known as the highest mountain in the whole earth. People sometimes call it as "Holy Mother". It has a height of 8,848 m (29,029 ft) that awarded it as the highest mountain in the world.
By the same measure of base[27] to summit, Mount McKinley, in Alaska, is also taller than Everest. Despite its height above sea level of only 6,193.6 m (20,320 ft), Mount McKinley sits atop a sloping plain with elevations from 300 m (980 ft) to 900 m (3,000 ft), yielding a height above base in the range of 5,300 to 5,900 m (17,400 to 19,400 ft); a commonly quoted figure is 5,600 m (18,400 ft).[28] By comparison, reasonable base elevations for Everest range from 4,200 m (13,800 ft) on the south side to 5,200 m (17,100 ft) on the Tibetan Plateau, yielding a height above base in the range of 3,650 to 4,650 m (11,980 to 15,260 ft).[23]
The summit of Chimborazo in Ecuador is 2,168 m (7,113 ft) farther from the Earth's centre (6,384.4 km (3,967.1 mi)) than that of Everest (6,382.3 km (3,965.8 mi)), because the Earth bulges at the Equator. However, Chimborazo attains a height of only 6,267 m (20,561 ft) above sea level, and by this criterion it is not even the highest peak of the Andes.
Everest today
Today mount everst is not like 10 years before, the snow is melting. the cause of this disaster is because people who know nothing for the world future, who know nothing for the environment. Like the photo above, you can see the snow in eerest it is continuing drain because of global warming. So, guys STOP the global warming.
