Mount Everest is approximately 29,000 feet tall. If it rained (at a constant rate) for 40 days, so that the water level reached this high by the end, it must have risen by about 725 feet a day, which is about 30 feet an hour or 6 inches a minute... so basically, this rain would have to be (on average) 50 times heavier than the heaviest rainfall on record (in one minute!!)

Not only does this sound totally ridiculous, but more importantly you could not breathe in rainfall this heavy. Noah and his animals would have died along with everyone else!
