The top of Mount Everest. The Sahara would be very hot with a lower air quality than that of a less hot place, but the top of Mount Everest would simply have less breathable oxygen in the air.

No, there are no competitions where you race to the top of Mount Everest. Mount Everest is a dangerous mountain to climb.
No, the top of Mount Everest has never fallen down.
The air pressure at the top of Mount Everest is low pressure. At high altitudes, such as on Mount Everest there is less air above you. This means that the density and pressure of air decreases as altitude increases. Each intake of air on Mount Everest has only one-third of the gas molecules-including oxygen-that would be present at sea level.
The atmospheric pressure at the top of Mount Everest is about a third of sea level pressure or 0.333 standard atmospheres (337 mbar), resulting in the availability of only about a third as much oxygen to breathe.
The amount of O2 on top of Everest is limited and unless you are conditioned to the lack of it you can die from this. That's why a lot of climbers use tanks as the air is so thin
Edmund Hillary was the first to reach the top of Mount Everest.
It is harder to breathe on the summit of Mount Everest than at sea level due to the lack of oxygen. The higher you climb upwards the less oxygen there is, you enter the death zone where the thin air is.
Most climbers put an oxygen mask on well before reaching the summit of Mount Everest. They breathe extra oxygen because of the altitude of the mountain it is very thin air at that height which makes it very hard to breathe.
