Tallest Man in the World

Posted on May 13, 2008 - Filed Under Ideal-Height, Important Read

Guiness World Records 2008 has declared Ukraine’s Leonid Ivanovych Stadnyk as the world’s tallest living man. Leonid Stadnyk had a brain surgery at the age of 14. He developed a pituitary gland tumor that caused the gland to secrete large amounts of growth hormone, this resulted in Acromegalic Gigantism in Stadnyk.
Now Stadnyk is 8 ft 5 inches tall. And he keeps growing taller. “My two-year-old suit’s sleeves and pants are now 30 centimetres (12 inches) shorter than I need…my height is God’s punishment. My life has no sense,” he told reporters back in 2004.
So if you are short as Salma Hayek don’t worry, at least you don’t look abnormally tall. Very tall or too short you just need to be satisfied with your own self.
