Mount Everest is the highest mountain in the world, standing at 8,848 meters (29,029 feet) above sea level, located on the border of Nepal and China. It was first summited on May 29, 1953, by Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay. Despite its title as the highest point, Chimborazo in Ecuador is farther from the Earth's center due to the planet's shape.
