Answer:
Mount Everest rose from a tectonic collision that continues to influence its height today. After moving at relatively high speeds, the Indian plate's migration slowed down, possibly due to its collision with the Eurasian plate

The Himalayas are still rising by more than 1 cm per year as India continues to move northwards into Asia, which explains the occurrence of shallow focus earthquakes in the region today. However the forces of weathering and erosion are lowering the Himalayas at about the same rate.
