(Creative Commons) It doesn't look that tall. The world's tallest mountain technically is not Mount Everest. . View gallery. Mount Everest is the tallest mountain above sea level, but if we're talking sheer height here, base to summit, then the tallest mountain is Mauna Kea on the island of Hawaii. Here's how it breaks down:
Tallest Mountain: The base of Mauna Kea is about 6000 meters below sea level and the summit is about 4000 meters above sea level. The distance between the foot of the mountain and the summit is about 10,000 meters. This makes Mauna Kea the tallest mountain in the world.himborazo in Ecuador has an altitude of 6,310 meters (20,703 feet). Mount Everest has a higher altitude and Mauna Kea is taller. However, Chimborazo has the distinction of being the highest mountain above Earth's center. This is because Earth is not a sphere-it is an oblate spheroid.
