The world's tallest man ~ Yao Ming? NoNoNo!
In fact, the world's tallest person Sultan Kosen, male, reportedly Turkish boy Sultan Kosen (gigantism, a lesion) height of 247cm, recently replaced the height of 2.36 meters chinese man Bao Xishun (natural growth, good health, or natural growth of the first height), confirmed by Guinness World Records as the new branch "the world's tallest person".
Surtan Kosen is from the small town of Mardin in eastern Turkey, and although Kossen is the second oldest in the family, he is the tallest. The height of the 3 brothers and 1 sister in the family is normal. From the age of 10, Sultan developed a tumor in his body, causing the pituitary gland to release too much growth hormone, and since then his height has soared, becoming a "giant". It wasn't until last year that he surgically removed the tumor that he stopped "jumping". However, at present, he must use the help of a cane and a wheelchair to walk normally. So what? When the sky closes a door for you, it also opens a window for you.
But the one I'm going to talk about next may want to shock your jaws, because he is the highest person recorded in the history of human evolution.
Zhan Shichao was born in 1841 and died around the time of Guangxu. According to the records of wuyuan county, Zhan Shichao was known as "Hongguan Changren" at that time, and his height was more than eight feet. A foot in the Qing Dynasty was about 35 centimeters, and according to this statement, Zhan Shichao's guaranteed height should be 2 meters 8.
When the term "Giant of China" began to cause widespread discussion around the world. It was also during that time that the media published a large number of articles about another Chinese giant. He is described in many articles as taller than three meters, the tallest person ever in the world. However, Zhan Shichao's claim that he is more than three meters has always been questioned by people.
Almighty friend, do you think he has three meters? Bragging capitalists, you have to blow [nose picking]
