      Seems to take me forever to make even a short video. I'm definitely slow at this. I'll keep working on it - thanks!

    Mount Denali is the highest in North America, but México has the rest, being Pico de Orizaba the tallest Volcano in the continent.
    If you are in Tlaxcala or Puebla you can see 5 of the highest peaks, most of them permanently covered with snow, and at only 2 or 3 hours there are sandy beaches, one of the reasons why aztecs and Nahua loved the region.

    I heard some people say that Aconcagua & Denali are on the same continent apparently. Even the Spanish wiki page says they are for whatever reason.

      You can say that Aconcagua & Denali are both in the America's, which is like a mega, hemispheric-scale region. But North America and South America are definitely on different major continental tectonic plates, so I would say it's wrong to claim they're on the same continent. Thank you for the comment and thanks for watching!

    I know this list is for above sea level mountains - volcanos but I'd like to add to this super video the island of the Azores >> ..According to the Guinness Book of Records, Mount Pico of the Azores is the highest underwater mountain face in the world. Above sea level, it rises an impressive 7,700 feet (2.3km) as an almost perfect volcanic cone with a sharp top. Underwater, however, it plunges deeper than it rises above sea level, descending 3km to the nearby sea floor, and eventually a total of 6,000 meters to the Atlantic’s lowest point to the far south. It’s a monster of a mountain. If the Atlantic was still below you it’d be impressive enough, but without it, the full glory of this epic massif is revealed.... No wonder the locals call it Magic Mountain ., proud & fortunate to have climbed this monster of a peek not once, not twice but 3 times & I can honestly tell you there are no more beautiful & breathtaking sunrises & sunsets then from the top of Mount Pico , a 360 degrees view above the Atlantic Ocean & with an Ocean of stars, galaxies, planets & so on above you , you truly feel like you're on top of the world & in outer space at same time,, a very special & unique feeling indeed , a feeling that changed my & many others life for the better... all of the 9 islands are a true paradise, good thing respectful & thankful people who treasure nature inhabit this special place or else this unique place would have been destroyed years ago... Thanks for the upload.

    i hate mount chimborazo with every bone in my body its not the tallest in any measure its so stupid, oh yeah also fun fact, mount denali is the tallest mountain, base to peak, thats located entirely on land, and mulanje massif is the tallest (non-volcanic) mountain thats not in a mountain range
