Mauna Kea.  It starts underwater, but continues above the surface.  From base to summit it is actually taller than Mt Everest!\n\nThe tallest underwater mountain on Earth is Mauna Kea on the big island of Hawaii. Mauna Kea rises 13,796 feet above sea level and rises a total of 33,476 feet from the Pacific Ocean floor.\n\n[modified to give you some references to check]\n\n"Hawaii's Mauna Kea, though, rises an astonishing 33,476 feet (10,203 meters) from the depths of the Pacific Ocean floor. Measuring from base to peak, Mauna Kea is the tallest mountain on earth." http://hypertextbook.com/facts/2001/BeataUnke.shtml\n\n"Sea-level is such an arbitrary starting value for measuring the height of a mountain. If you ignore it then the tallest mountain on earth is not Mt. Everest but Mauna Kea on Hawaii, “the Big Island.” Mauna Kea is 13,796 ft high starting from sea-level with another 17,000 ft extending to its base below the ocean." http://www.steephill.tv/2006/mauna-kea/\n\n"EARTH'S TALLEST MOUNTAIN IS UNDERWATER\nHawaiian submarine (undersea) volcanoes are large, spreading volcanoes and are very tall. From the bottom of the sea floor to its summit, the Mauna Kea volcano is 9,000 meters (29,520 feet) high, making it the tallest mountain on Earth, approximately 150 meters (490 feet) higher than Mount Everest." http://www.waterencyclopedia.com/Tw-Z/Volcanoes-Submarine.html

Everest, Mount, mountain peak in the Himalayas of southern Asia, considered the highest mountain in the world. Mount Everest is situated at the edge of the Tibetan Plateau (Qing Zang Gaoyuan), on the border between Nepal and Tibet.\nThe mountain was named for Sir George Everest, a British military engineer who served as surveyor general of India from 1829 to 1843, during which time the peak was surveyed. Everest was the first person to record the location and height of the mountain, then known as Peak XV.

From what we've seen so far, Mars, with Olympus Mons. \n\nThe central edifice stands 27 kilometres (about 88,600 feet) high over its base (about three times the height of Mount Everest above sea level and 2.6 times the height of Mauna Kea above its base); it reaches 25 km (15 miles) above the mean surface level of Mars.

If you're talking about equal coverage of the Earth and if you assume an unlimited water supply and equal rainfall at every square inch of the ground.  Also assume that the indentations and protrusions from the earth equal out to zero feet above sea level.\n\n40 days equals: 960 hours\nMt Everest: 29017 feet 2 inches: 348206 inches\n\nSo: It would need to rain 362.7146 inches per hour to cover the top of Everest (to the rock, snow not included) with water.

Kilimanjaro carries a few titles of "highest" according to the pages...  One is highest in Africa, one as highest active volcano, and another as highest free-standing peak (no mountain range like Himilayas).  Samahani, can't find a listing that goes far enough down for a rank in peak height in the world; it's after 50 at least I think!\n\nFrom first source:  Rising to a height of 5, 985 meters, (19,340 feet) Mt. Kilimanjaro is the highest peak in Africa, arguably the world's highest volcano and the highest freestanding mountain in the world. It also takes its place as one of the 'Seven Summits', a holy grail for climbers consisting of the highest peaks in each of the seven continents. \n\nFrom second source:  Africa's tallest mountain (der höchste Berg Afrikas) was long thought to be nothing but a legend. After all, how could there be a snow-capped peak just three degrees south of the equator? But German-speaking explorers were the first Europeans to ever see and climb Kilimanjaro—and establish the mountain's existence.\nKilimanjaro is also the world's highest mountain that can be climbed by hiking (walking), but the lower, more jagged Mawensi volcanic peak (17,564 ft) was not climbed until 1912 and requires mountaineering experience.
