The summit of Everest is the ' table-top ' , jutting-out at the right-side of pic ...
The Kangshung Glacier is ( 'almost' ) directly below ... some 10,000ft ...Mick Burke probably took the biggest whipper in climbing history, when he stepped thru the summit-ridge-cornice, in 1975 ...
........................
The largest face/wall in the world ( above sea level...) is the 13,000ft South Face of Nanga Parbat (Reinhold&Gunter Messner, 1970 )...
