Mount Everest

Edmund Hillary reached the summit of Mount Everest in 1953.

His son, Peter reached the summit of Mount Everest in 1990 and 2002

No, Edmund Hillary did not climb Mount Everest alone. He was part of an expedition where many climbers helped to get gear up the mountain for the final push for the summit. It was all teamwork.

Also for the final stage to the summit Hilary was not alone a Sherpa, Tenzing Norgay was with him

the death zone of mount everest is 28,000 feet.

The duration of The Conquest of Everest is 1.3 hours.

Mount Everest is known as the third pole because before it was climbed it was the last major adventure on earth after the South and North Pole was reached.

The North side of Mount Everest is in Tibet.

mount everest is located in nepal not in china it some part is touches by china

Due to the fact that the climate on Mount Everest is so harsh, it is no surprise that very little lives on the mountain itself. However, there are some things that have been found on Everest. Of course, the vast majority of these things have been found at the bottom of the mountain, but some are surprisingly much higher up.

The Euophrys omnisuperstes is a small jumping spider that lives 22,000ft up Mount Everest.

The Bar-Headed Goose have been seen flying around Everest at up to thirty thousand feet.

Another bird that has been known to survive on Everest is the Chough, this bird has been seen as high as 7,920 meters.

yes, a pressure cooker would come in VERY handy on top of Mt. Everest. This is because the pressure lessens as you ascend which causes your ears to pop.

Edmund Hillary did not suffer any injurys while climbing Mount Everest in 1953.

they have bigger hearts and lungs to get more oxygen from the thin air.

Mount Everest is approx 50 million years old. It is thought that the summit of Mount Everest started at the bottom of the ancient Tethys Sea, the motion of the Indian sub continental plate and the urasian continental plate colliding, about 30 - 50 million years ago, caused the mountain to rise up and become the highest mountain on the Earth.

I expect that many hundreds of climbers have left a flag on the summit of Mount Everest over the years. Many are probably blown away or destroyed by the strong winds.

The boiling point of water is 100 °C (212 °F) at standard pressure. On top of Mount Everest the pressure is about 260 mbar (26.39 kPa) so the boiling point of water is 69 °C. (156.2 °F).

At Muree hills the pressure of air is 700 which is less than 760 torr so water boils at 98 degree centigrade and at Mount everest pressure further decreases and water boils at 69 degree centigrade

The Mariana Trench is 150 times larger [deeper] than the Grand Canyon.

From the year 2000 to the end of 2011 there had been 4,488 ascents made to the summit of Mount Everest. Out of the 4,488 only 226 were woman climbers who had reached the summit and 21 climbers sadly died on the mountain during this time.

Today the only time the public get to hear about Expeditions on Mount Everest is if there has been some sort of disaster like an avalanche or ice fall that has killed climbers.

The two main routes to climb Mount Everest are the South Col - South East Ridge from Nepal and the North Col - North East Ridge from Tibet.

Standing at 29.028ft or 8.848m high Mount Everest is the highest mountain in the world
