The eighth virial coefficient for hard hyperspheres is calculated by Monte Carlo techniques. It is found that B8∕B27=0.000274±0.000014 and −0.000115±0.000012 in four and five dimensions, respectively. The results are in good agreement with the findings of Clisby and McCoy (e-print arXiv:cond-mat∕0410511), and confirm that B8 is negative in five dimensions.
