Sekizbinlikler, deniz seviyesinden ölçüldüğünde yüksekliği 8.000 m'yi geçen 14 dağa verilen isimdir. Bu dağların hepsi Asya'daki Himalaya ve Karakurum silsileleri içerisinde yer alırlar.
Bütün on dört sekizbinliğe çıkan ilk kişi Reinhold Messner'dir. Bunu 16 Ekim 1986'da başarmıştır. Bir sene sonra, 1987'de Jerzy Kukuczka bütün sekizbinliklere tırmanan ikinci dağcı olmuştur ve günümüzde toplam 29 kişi bunu başarabilmiştir. Bütün sekizbinliklere tırmanmak çok riskli bir iştir ve bunu yapmaya çalışan en az dört kişi ölmüştür.
Claims have been made for summiting all 14 peaks for which not enough evidence was provided to verify the ascent; the disputed ascent in each claim is shown in parentheses in the table below. In most cases, the Himalayan chronicler Elizabeth Hawley is considered a definitive source regarding the facts of the dispute. Her The Himalayan Database is the source for other online Himalayan ascent databases (e.g. AdventureStats.com).[59][60] The Eberhard Jurgalski List is also another important source for independent verification of claims to have summited all 14 eight-thousanders.[61][62]
Vladislav Terzyul (Shishapangma (West) 2000, Broad Peak 1995[66][67])[68][69] As he did not claim the main summit of Shishapangma, this status is unlikely to change.

But a South Korean climber, who followed in their footprints on the crusted snow three days later [in 1997] in clearer weather, did not consider that they actually gained the top. While [Sergio] Martini and [Fausto] De Stefani indicated they were perhaps only a few meters below it, Park Young-Seok claimed that their footprints stopped well before the top, perhaps 30 meters below a small fore-summit and 150 vertical meters below the highest summit. Now in 2000 [Sergio] Martini was back again, and this time he definitely summited Lhotse.

It was misty so they could not see well; nine years later Hinkes said he had “wandered around for a while” in the summit area but could see very little and eventually descended to join the others, one of whom said they had not reached the top.
