Mauna Kea is the highest mountain on earth?

Mauna Kea is a volcano in Hawaii. It rises 4,205 m above sea level, compared to the Mount Everest rising 8850 meters up in the air this seems like peanuts. But the secret of Mauna Kea’s hight, is under water;
Measured from its base at the bottom of the Great Ocean, Mauna Kea is 10,203 meters high!
