Yao Ming's height is 2.26 meters, and his mentor Li Qiuping once said that when Yao Ming wore a red scarf, his height had reached 1.96 meters.
Nowadays, there are also many girls who break through the 2-meter height mark, the two major centers of the Chinese women's basketball team, Li Yueru and Han Xu, are above 2 meters, and Zhang Ziyu reached 2.26 meters when he was 14 years old.
For these girls, being tall can become their advantage in the arena, but for ordinary people, it is a nuisance.
A girl in the Northeast grew taller than the door frame, with a height of 226 cm, and her parents were worried that no one would chase her, and they regretted letting her grow so tall from time to time.
The troubles of the "giant" girl Li Mengyao
When it comes to Northeast people, our first impression is that they are tall and big.
Therefore, Li Mengyao's parents also thought so, at the beginning, her parents were very happy about Li Mengyao's rising height, and felt that their daughter could grow taller.
However, they didn't expect that their daughter would grow taller and taller, even taller than ordinary boys, and her height soared directly to 2.26 meters.

Li Mengyao came into the eyes of netizens because her family shared a photo of her on social media, which showed that she was half a position taller than the average door frame, which immediately caused an uproar on the Internet.
Some people suspect that her height has been lengthened by technical means, and some people directly question that this is a fraud.
Li Mengyao was very helpless, she didn't want to grow so tall, but the fact was that she really grew so tall.
In order to prove that she is really so tall, Li Mengyao began to shoot videos in the crowd, and found a 1.8-meter-tall Northeast man as a reference.
Sure enough, even a man with the average height of a Northeast person could only reach the position of Li Mengyao's chest.
After this self-proof, Li Mengyao finally convinced everyone that she was 2.26 meters tall.
Is it really that good to be so tall?
For Li Mengyao, it did bring her a lot of troubles and obstacles.
Growing up, she often attracted strange eyes from the people around her because she was too tall, and she also encountered a lot of inconveniences on campus, such as classmates who were afraid to play with her because she was too tall.
In addition, Li Mengyao has encountered many inconveniences in all aspects of life.
For example, in campus life, the general classroom table and chair design is obviously prepared for students of ordinary height, and for Li Mengyao, who is more than 2 meters tall, it is simply a torture-like existence.
Sitting at her desk, she couldn't fully straighten her legs and had to put her legs sideways under the desk.
Li Mengyao's size also caused her trouble in class, because she was too tall, the teachers were worried that she would affect the sight of the students in the back row, so they always arranged her to sit in the last row.
She is still very conspicuous when she is bent down, and she has become the most eye-catching presence in the class.
As a girl, how can you not like to wear beautiful little dresses?
However, it is difficult for Li Mengyao to even buy clothes that fit, let alone small skirts.
The size of ordinary women's clothing is too small for Li Mengyao, and it can only be specially customized, which is very inconvenient.
In addition to the trouble of dressing, just going out has become a torturous thing.
For example, when taking a bus, Li Mengyao always has to curl up and bend her waist to barely stand on the bus, but even so, she often accidentally hits the roof of the car.
Once, probably Li Mengyao accidentally hit the roof of the car, making a loud noise, and the driver looked suspiciously in the rearview mirror, shouting and asking, "Where did the children go?"
With the strange eyes of others, Li Mengyao's heart was hit hard again and again.
It was also during that period that the school's physical education teacher wanted to recruit Li Mengyao to join the team many times and use her extraordinary height to play basketball.
At first, Li Mengyao was very happy, and she could finally use her height advantage to show her strength on the court.
Not long after training, her overly slender physique could not withstand the ravages of intense exercise, and she often suffered injuries and falls in confrontations.
In just two weeks, Li Mengyao was completely frightened by the scars on her body, and she no longer dared to continue to participate in strenuous exercise.
Li Mengyao's life seems to have been spent in the haze like this, until one day her family unintentionally posted her video on the Internet, which attracted widespread attention from everyone.
In the photo, a tall girl wearing a large northeastern flower jacket is standing in front of the door of the house, even half a head higher than the door frame.

If you only look at Li Mengyao's face, you will think that she is a delicate little girl, her skin is white and pure, and she looks protective, but when you see her height again, it makes the boys shy away.
The mother's biggest worry is that her daughter is looking for a boyfriend, after all, who wants to marry a daughter-in-law who is taller than herself?
For the sake of her daughter's lifelong event, her mother asked people everywhere to introduce Li Mengyao to a blind date.
But every time people are rejected, the reason is often "too high".
In fact, regarding the fact that they can't find a boyfriend, many netizens feel that they don't need to worry too much.
Ye Li is 1.9 meters tall, she is a former professional Chinese women's basketball player, and chose to retire in 2007 due to injury.
Her husband is Yao Ming, and it was also mentioned at the beginning of the article that Yao Ming's height is 2.26 meters, and the two are so suitable in any way.
At the beginning, Yao Ming put a lot of effort into chasing Ye Li into his hands.
The two met on a basketball court, and Yao Ming specially collected fifty badges for Ye Li during the 2000 Sydney Games in order to prepare an unforgettable birthday gift for Ye Li.
In 2007, the two got married and started their own married life.
After marriage, the two lived very happily, and Yao Ming treated his daughter even more carefully and considerately.
From Ye Li and Yao Ming, we can see that height does not affect marriage, so I believe that the girl Li Mengyao will also meet her own beautiful love.
The author thinks
We need to learn to be open and inclusive and appreciate the diversity of women's bodies.
Petite and cute, tall and slim, each style has its own unique beauty.
With empathy, who can be sure that you must be a "normal" figure in the eyes of others?
What are your thoughts on this?
