Is this the tallest man to ever live welcome back Charlie here you may be surprised to learn
that real giants walk among us these extraordinary people shocked the world with their massive sizes
first we have to look at Robert Wadlow Robert Wadlow is the tallest person to ever live he was
nicknamed the giant of Illinois Robert was eight feet and 11 inches tall back then the average
American male was only five foot six meaning that Robert towered over everyone he also has
the record for the largest hands his hands were 12.75 inches he also holds the record for the
largest feat his feet were 18.5 inches all of his clothes shoes and even his bed had to be custom
made Robert was very famous not only for being tall but for being very kind too with many calling
Robert The Gentle Giant in 1918 when Robert was born he was average size berta's years went by he
he grew much faster than all of his peers he was later diagnosed with pituitary hypertrophy the
pituitary gland is what causes the growth hormone but Roberts was abnormally enlarged causing an
excessive amount of growth hormone when Robert was only a kid he was already taller than his dad and
had to wear adult clothing most people get teased at school if they look different but I think any
of Robert's classmates would be too afraid to do that Robert lived a good and happy life earning
the equivalent of one thousand dollars a day he would do this by making people pay him to stand
up when someone paid him he would stand up and show off his massive height but as he aged he
kept on growing this eventually led to him having to use leg braces to stand up but these braces
rubbed on his legs creating a soul eventually this saw got infected sadly ending Robert's life at
age 22. the wild thing is if Robert didn't pass away early he would have likely kept on growing
today you can find a lie life-size statue of Robert where he lived in Illinois giving you
