Properties of matter (Course Intro)

Everest stands at about 9 KM. But, Mountains on earth can never be taller than about 10 KM. But why? Why is steel more elastic than elastic bands, even though these bands stretch so much while steel hardly does! When you gently place it, a paper clip can float on water. How?
