Mount Everest grows a few millimetres per year.

Mount Everest, the highest mountain in the world, grows about 4 millimetres per year. The growth is caused by the collision of the Indian and Eurasian tectonic plates, which continues to push the Himalayas upwards. The same process causes earthquakes in the region.
