The three tallest mountains in the world (1 Viewer)

And by that I don’t mean the first, second, and third highest. I mean that all of these are the tallest in their own right

Everest is the one everyone knows. It’s tallest from sea level.

Another relatively known one is Mount Kea. Located in Hawaii, it’s tallest from the base of the mountain to the top. However, the base is underwater, meaning that although the height from base to top is about 33,500 feet to Everests 29,032 feet, much of that isn’t counted due to being underwater.

The last is Mount Chimborazo in Equador. Its peak is father from the center of the earth than Everest, despite being shorter. This is because the earth has a bulge around the equator rather than being perfectly spherical, and that extra distance pushes it above Everest when measuring from the center of the Earth.
