[QUOTE=gufu;17373749]Why are overly tall people apparently seem ugly.[/QUOTE]
Because it's some kind of birth defect.
Sucks that he can't walk without the supports.
Also sucks that he'll probably die young.

looks like he could actually support himself, too.
Why'd he get the tumor removed?
Because if he kept growing he would eventually be unable to walk, and the taller he got the higher chance he would have of dying.
Jesus. People are already tall enough compared to me as it is. I'm like 5'6", 5'7".
[QUOTE=Fishyfish v16;17377098]Why'd he get the tumor removed?[/QUOTE]
Because he didn't want a tumor. I wouldn't want one either.

The flip side of this is that he has tons of medical problems because of it, and will likely not live past his mid 30s. There's a reason most humans aren't seven feet tall.
Space Marines are over 8ft tall.
Gawd.
Why are all the foreign people fucked up?
Does this mean the tallest [i]living [/i]person?
I remember reading about some dude being 11' 11" or something once
He's long dead though
In Ripley's Believe it or not me thinks
[QUOTE=Jallen;17367072]There is actually a man in the ukraine who is 8'4" - it happened because of a brain tumour.
He might be dead though which would explain the lack of him being mentioned, but I saw a documentary about him recently.

8'5" actually.
[B]EDIT:[/B]
Didn't read the last line, sorry. Despite him not being measured under the new guidelines I still see him as the tallest man.
193cm :argh:[/QUOTE]
[quote]Ukrainian Leonid Stadnyk was briefly awarded the title in 2007, but it was returned to Bao Xishun when Mr Stadnyk declined to be measured under new guidelines, which required him to be independently measured by Guinness World Records adjudicators.[/quote]
He ain't dead yet.

He didn't die. It turned out the tumor just healed itself. And he is still alive.

Sorry but Robert Wadlow will always be the Tallest Man IMO. Atleast until someone 9ft tall comes along

the guy you mentioned IS the tallest guy, he's not smaller because some stupid posh selfbackpadding book says so... in my oppinion, he's there and that's how the cookie crumbles.
