In 2007, China's No. 1 giant "Bao Xishun", who was taller than Yao Ming, married Xia Shujuan, a woman 28 years younger than him.
In order to continue the incense, he wanted to have a child, but he was strongly opposed by the doctor.
Just because of his height of 2.36 meters, it is extremely harmful!
But Bao Xishun ignored the doctor's advice and insisted on giving birth to a son at the age of 58.
Fifteen years have passed in the blink of an eye, does he regret his insistence on having a child now?
Adventures in life
In 1971, Bao Xishun, who was only 20 years old, was already taller than Yao Ming, growing to 2.36 meters.
Because of his height, he also had "rheumatoid arthritis".
Looking at Bao Xishun, who was tossing and turning in pain and struggling to walk, his parents gritted their teeth and sold the sheep and took the money to take their son directly to Shenyang for medical treatment.
The trip to Shenyang has become a "sweet dream" for him.
After getting off the train, the family went straight to a big hospital in Shenyang.
But I was told that the disease had dragged on for too long and could not be cured, and that the pain could only be relieved with medication.
Hearing the doctor's words, the family fell silent. And when he thought of his poor family, sooner or later he would be dragged down by this disease, Bao Xishun directly gave up treatment.
In this way, I pulled my parents out of the hospital to buy tickets and go home.
But what they don't know is that their every word and deed is being watched by a person in the dark.
A family walks down the street with a heavy expression on their faces. Bao Xishun didn't know where he should go in the future.
A person from a distance looked at him, such a big and tall man, it's a pity not to play basketball.
Ran directly to stop them: Hello, I am the basketball coach of a military compound in Shenyang.
Are you interested in playing basketball with me? Food, lodging, and free treatment for you, can you come?
As soon as these words came out, Bao Xishun's family was afraid that this "wronged boss" would regret it, so they immediately agreed.
But for such a pie-in-the-sky thing, the family still cautiously went to the military compound to inquire about the identity of this person. After confirming the identity of the person, he handed over his son to the coach, and the husband and wife bought tickets to return to Inner Mongolia without delay.
In this way, Bao Xishun came to the basketball team with joy and began to play basketball while curing his illness.
However, it didn't take long for such happy days to come, and the nightmare came.
After spending a lot of money, the disease was still not cured, or even worse.
Every time Bao Xishun plays basketball, when he runs and jumps, his leg joints always hurt, which delays the progress of basketball.
The coach thought that he had recruited a genius, but he didn't expect to end up being a drag on the basketball team. A lot of money was spent, but not only was the disease not cured, but basketball could not keep up.
And Bao Xishun himself also felt uneasy about his conscience, sorry for the cultivation of the coach, and chose to resign from the leader.
The 2-year basketball career came to an end quietly. The down-and-out Bao Xishun also returned to his hometown of Inner Mongolia and continued to live a poor life that no one cared about.
In the blink of an eye, more than 30 years have passed, and he is already in his 50s, lonely and has been crushed by life.
Although there were many reporters who came to interview him because of his giant height, it did not change Bao Xishun's poor life.
Just when he was already desperate for life, a person came and broke Bao Xishun's muddy life.
This person is Xin Xing, a hot pot restaurant owner.
Xin Xing is very smart, he saw the shining point on Bao Xishun, as long as he uses this giant well, his store will definitely explode.
As soon as he said it, he immediately called Bao Xishun and invited him to come to his store as a greeting.
Little did anyone know that the moment they received the call, the giant's life began to change.
Bao Xishun also wanted to refuse directly, but Xin Xing gave too much.
Just do it for 10 days, and when the 10 days are up, you can leave directly, and I will give you 1,000 yuan a day.
If you make a lot of money, you can earn 10,000 yuan in 10 days, and Bao Xishun may not be able to earn so much after 10 years of farm work.
In addition, he has been lonely for many years, and he also wants to see people and the world outside.
In this way, the two hit it off, and he was full of anticipation to go to the hot pot restaurant to welcome guests.
Sure enough, with the blessing of Bao Xishun, the business of the hot pot restaurant is booming, and hundreds of people come here every day.
In less than 10 days, Xin Xing made a net profit of more than 100,000 yuan, and this turnover caught up with the performance of others for half a year.
And the busy welcome work also gave him a sense of accomplishment and hope for life. After the 10-day period, a long-term contract was signed as both parties were satisfied.
Bao Xishun decided that this should be the happiest moment of his life, but he didn't know that this was just the beginning.
As more and more people knew about him, so did the reporters. Tang Jun, a reporter from "Northern News", also arranged a "surprise" for Bao Xishun after interviewing him.
After this interview, Bao Xishun became completely popular, taking advantage of this heat, Tang Jun thought: Just add more fire and declare a Guinness.
He didn't tell anyone else, and secretly took the giant to the hospital for various examinations, just to prove that the height was caused by natural growth and not "gigantism".
After a check, the final result was very happy.
With the medical certificate and all the documents complete, Tang Jun told Bao Xishun about the idea, and then the two began to declare.
Finally, on July 21, 2005, he was recognized by the Guinness World Records headquarters, and also received the certificate of "the world's tallest natural growth person", and the major evening newspapers also held award ceremonies for Bao Xishun.
Even more celebrated, he also received an invitation from Guinness in London, England to participate in a global event at the headquarters. Bao Xishun went all the way from domestic to international, and completely became popular.
After returning to China, various commercial performances continued, and even the aquarium came to the door.
It turned out that everything was to save the dolphins. When the dolphins in the aquarium interacted with the trainers, they accidentally ate the plastic toy ball into their stomachs, and their lives were not guaranteed, and the staff tried their best to get it out.
But what does this have to do with Bao Xishun?
The distance from the dolphin's mouth to its stomach was about 1.05 meters, and it was said that his arm length was exactly 1.06 meters.
In the end, the staff broke the dolphin's mouth, Bao Xishun put his bare hands into his stomach, and successfully took out the toy ball after several twists and turns. Although his arm was bleeding from a dolphin's tooth halfway, he was fortunate to save the dolphin's life.
It was also through this incident that everyone saw this simple and honest bachelor, and also held a blind date banquet.
Love that spans half a lifetime
Bao Xishun, who was 54 years old at the time, said in an interview that his biggest wish now is to have a home.
After discussion by the leaders of the "Northern Times", they finally spent 150,000 yuan to build a "giant's house" for him.
The house is there, and there is a hostess.
After many discussions, countless blind dates were held for him, but none of them were suitable.
It wasn't until the appearance of a woman that Bao Xishun's lonely single life ended.
She is Xia Shujuan from Inner Mongolia, 28 years old, 1.68 meters tall.
Seeing the video of him rescuing the small animal, I was moved by his kindness, and heard that Bao Xishun was on a blind date, and she worked hard to come to this man for love.
are both fellow villagers, plus both of them are farmers, so they have a common topic. When they saw each other for the first time, they immediately decided that it was her (him).
After two months of dating, the two got married directly. But such a happy love has also been hit by life.
On July 12, 2007, the two held a grand wedding in the tourist area of Genghis Khan's Mausoleum, spending a total of more than 700,000 yuan.
Xia Shujuan's height is already tall in the crowd. But beside the giant Bao Xishun, it was like an old father with his young daughter.
No matter how incompatible the couple is in the eyes of outsiders, they still live happily.
After marriage, the giant wanted a child. After a year of hard work, his wife Xia Shujuan finally got pregnant, but received bad news.
In 2008, after his wife found out that she was pregnant, the doctor who saw her seriously advised the two:
To be on the safe side, it is not recommended to stay with this child.
On the one hand, at the age of 54, the sperm is not good, and it is easy to give birth to abnormal children. On the other hand, Bao Xishun's giant height will have family inheritance, which will affect the child's development.
The doctor's words were like a cold rain, directly extinguishing the joy of the two.
But after some struggle, Bao Xishun still chose to keep the child.
I don't know if the two of them have too high expectations for this child, but he actually grew up healthy in his mother's womb, and there was no accident in the nine months of pregnancy.
In the expectation of everyone, on October 2, the husband and wife ushered in a big fat boy, named God You, and the mother and son were safe.
Seeing Bao Xishun, who is now living happily, can't help but remind people of the first half of his depressed life.
Sewing and patching, the first half of a life pieced together
He was born into a poor family, and it can be said that his family is surrounded by four walls.
When he was a child, Bao Xishun was the same as ordinary people to children, there was no difference.
Until he was 15 years old, his body suddenly developed and grew to 1.9 meters. And with that came his stomach, which was the size of a meal for four people.
But the family conditions are not good, he can only eat a little at a time, plus he has dropped out of school to work since he was a child, and his body is laborious, so it is easy to get hungry.
I thought it would be good to endure it, but this was only the beginning of Bao Xishun's hard work.
As an adult, his height also broke through the 2-meter mark and became the first giant in China.
The huge height made Bao Xishun incompatible with the people around him, and not only that, but it also seriously affected his life.
There are no clothes and shoes for him on the market, and he has to spend a lot of money to customize them, and most of the time his mother sews them for him.
This terrible height also made Bao Xishun's bed unable to sleep, he could only sleep on the cold floor for many years, and because of this, he also suffered from severe rheumatoid arthritis.
This disease tormented him all his life, and he had to rely on crutches to get around. But God was afraid that he was not miserable enough, and gave him a fatal blow.
When he reached middle age, Bao Xishun was still alone, and only his mother was left by his side. Fortunately, he has his mother's company by his side, so that he can have a moment of warmth.
But even this had to be cruelly taken away, and when he was 40 years old, his mother also left, leaving only one Bao Xishun in this world.
It's obviously called Xishun, but his life is full of misery.
Fortunately, now life has been reversed, and Bao Xishun's life is only happiness.
brief summary
Fifteen years have passed in the blink of an eye, and his son Tianyou has grown up healthy.
Previously, doctors had predicted that Tianyou could grow to about 2.2 meters, which was about the same height as Yao Ming, but now 14-year-old Tianyou has grown to 1.7 meters.
Not long ago, Bao Xishun and his 14-year-old son appeared on TV together, looking at the healthy Tianyou, he sighed:
It was not easy for him to grow up, I just hope that he will always be safe and healthy, which is the biggest requirement as a father!
Yes, they finally waited for the rainbow after the storm, and I also hope that this giant who has experienced ups and downs can be happy and live a long life in the future!
