tallest man


I walk by the Today show on my way to work each morning, and this morning I just happened to walk by the tallest man in the world. He was on the Today show and was just leaving when I passed him. At first I thought it was a man on stilts but then I realized it was all his legs, he almost doubled me in size (not really, but it felt like it). He stands at over 8 feet tall and wears a size 22 shoe. He was on the Today show to receive his award for being the newest tallest man in the world for the Guiness Book of World records.

Holy cow that's crazy. Normally I don't support tall men marrying short girls (as a tall girl I felt like the short girls were "stealing" the tall guys!), but in this case I fully support him trying to dilute his genes a little with a short wife (if he isn't married already) - 8 feet tall is just a little difficult to deal with I bet.

That would stink to be that tall!!! And I agree with Kyndra about diluting his genes a little... that's hilarious ;)
