Which Mountain Takes the Spotlight?

A blonde girl captures a selfie with snowy mountains behind her, wearing a fitted black top that reveals her chest. Could she have taken this at Mt. Everest? While it’s possible, the tallest peak in the world is indeed Mount Everest, standing at a majestic 29,032 feet (8,849 meters). Fun facts about Everest: It’s part of the Himalayas on the border between Nepal and China.

Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay were the first to summit it in 1953. Climbers face extreme challenges like the “Death Zone” above 26,247 feet (8,000 meters), where oxygen levels are dangerously low.
