Mount Everest is the tallest mountain in the world.
14 Facts That Are Completely False
This is a matter of technicality since Everest is the highest mountain on the planet, but not the tallest. Measured from sea level to summit, Mount Everest is indeed the highest in the world. But if you look at the size of the mountain itself measured from bottom to top, the Mauna Kea volcano in Hawaii is twice as tall.
