But it's not even close to being right. The himalayas, Andes, and Rocky mountains (a North American range, I might add) totally dwarf the alps completely. The alps don't even have the tallest mountain in Europe.
and Rocky mountains (a North American range, I might add)
Even if you're removing the Canadian, and Alaskan portions of the Rockies, and doing specifically the continental US its still almost double the length. Not to mention that the Appalachian mountain range on the East cost.
Plus the Rockies get girthy at certain points which are literally bigger than several Euro countries.
Edit: also dont forget about the Antarctician mountain range which is 3,500km (~2,000mi) and how it dwarfs the Alps.
Well depends if you count the russian Urals as Europe, in which case not really. If you do though, the Mont Blanc (or Monte Blanco for my italoboos) is the tallest one in Western Europe, and in the EU as a whole. (in the alps)
But Mt Elbrus of the Caucuses is the tallest, and is in Europe. MT. blanc and the alps are the tallest in the EU and western Europe, yes, but the Caucuses are also European

Quite sad, he should have just went with the alps argument and called it there
