Chinese Man, Zhao Liang, Contends for World’s Tallest Man Title

Guinness World Records may be rewriting one of its most talked about titles following the discovery of Zhao Liang. The Chinese man arrived at a hospital in Tianjin to receive treatment for a foot injury but doctors stood amazed at the sheer size of the 27-year-old, an astounding 8-foot 0.7-inch measurement.

 

While the measurement has yet to be verified by Guinness the mark would easily hand the title of world’s tallest man to Zhao, eclipsing the 7-foot 8.95-inch stature of Bao Xishun.

 

Zhao had played basketball in his home province of Henan but his career ended a decade ago after a foot injury. For the past three year she has been working with a street art troupe in which he performs magic tricks and plays instruments.

 

Doctors have said Zhao’s foot injury was cleared up by surgery and he is expected to make a full recovery.

 

Guinness is expected to send a team to verify the height.
