What is the worlds second tallest mountain?
K2 is the second highest (as opposed to tallest) mountain in the world. The highest mountain is not necessarily the tallest, considering the difference in height between the peak and the surrounding base of the mountain. There is no precise definition of surrounding base, but Mount McKinley, Mount Kilimanjaro and Nanga Parbat are possible candidates for the tallest mountain on land by this measure. Mauna Kea, which is partially submerged in the ocean, is considered the tallest mountain in the world. It rises more than 10,000 meters (32,808 ft) from the floor of the Pacific Ocean. It is located in Hawaii, USA. See Sources and relate links for more information.
