The vast majority of the mountains are in the Himalayas, in the countries of Nepal and Tibet.

It is the world\u2019s 9th highest mountain.&nbsp; Only a few people can try to climb the 8000ers. Currently, only about 40 people succeeded in climbing all 14 of them.&nbsp; There is a very extreme issue of the lack of oxygen. Some climatic conditions are hard to face. So the climbers have to face many issues and have to carefully involve in the basic decision making. It is adventurous but also physically tiring.<\/span><\/p><div><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\"><br><\/span><\/div><\/span>\n\n\n\n<h3>Hardness of 8000ers<\/h3>\n\n\n<p><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-60336435-7fff-dd99-d7d8-516b581499b1\"><\/span><\/p><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.3800000000000001;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:10pt;\"><span style=\"font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif;color:#000000;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;\">The weather conditions are also not supportive and climbers face many hardships.
