Why Mount Everest is the world's tallest mountain

Mount Everest's towering height is due to ancient river activity and geological processes, with significant erosion leading to its elevation increase.

Why Mount Everest Is Growing Taller Every Year

Mount Everest's height is influenced by a historical river merger that increased erosion, allowing the mountain to rise further by up to 165 feet.
