Highest mountain in the world

http://www.dailygalaxy.com March 4th … Mount Everest is the highest mountain in the world at 29,000 feet, so it is generally believed. However, when the equatorial bulge is taken into account, the earth being oblate as it spins, flattened at the pole and bulging at the equator, it seems that Mount Chinborozo in the Andes, at only 20,000 feet, situated on that bulge, is the highest point on the planet. A bit of random and completely useless information but there you are.
