Until 1852, Kangchenjunga was assumed to be the highest mountain in the world, but calculations based on various readings and measurements made by the Great Trigonometric Survey of India in 1849 came to the conclusion that Mount Everest, known as Peak XV at the time, was the highest.

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

The Bar-Headed Goose has 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.

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.

for sure the animals that live on mount Everest do NOT LIVE ON MOUNT OLYMPUS. ugh. its not the same and im in school doing research and not finding anything.

Mount Kailash is located in the western part of Tibet, which is an autonomous region of China. It stands in the Kailash Range, which is a part of the Transhimalaya. The mountain is considered sacred in several religions, including Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, and Bon.

Geographically, Mount Kailash is situated near the source of some of Asia's major rivers, including the Indus River, the Sutlej River, the Brahmaputra River, and the Karnali River. It's renowned for its distinctively symmetrical peak and its religious significance, drawing pilgrims from various parts of the world who undertake the challenging journey to circumambulate the mountain as an act of devotion.
