Mount Everest is the World’s Highest Mountain
Mount Everest has the “highest elevation above the sea level,” which is why it is called the highest point on Earth. The mountain’s epic height was first identified in 1856 by a team escorted by a British surveyor – Sir George Everest. The official height of Everest is calculated to be 8,848 meters (29,028 feet).
