Reply to TIL that the Hawaii’s Maunakea Volcano, the world’s tallest mountain, (10,210 m or 33,500 ft from base to peak) was first ascended successfully over three days in February 2021. Over half of it is underwater. by Fantastic_Ad1613
I drove up it in a rented jeep like the early 2000's, so the above sea level part is not all that impressive of a feat. I had a nice breakfast at my hotel on the beach, drove to the top, and was back at a bar on the beach for dinner.

Reply to TIL the best selling book of 1981 was a guide on how to solve the Rubik's cube, selling over 6 million copies. by lightsdevil
As a kid of that era it is hard to explain to people just how big the Rubik’s cube was at that time. The things were everywhere. It doesn’t surprise me at all that this was the best selling book, as we didn’t have the internet yet, and books were how people learned things. God, I feel old. Lol.
