In China : New rival to world’s tallest man

It appears that there is a new contender for the world’s tallest man (currently the previously posted seven-feet, nine-inches tall Bao Xishun) in China.

Worlds Tallest Man 466In

Zhao Liang was measured at 2.46m (just under 8ft 1in – 10cm above Bao Xishum) by doctors in Tianjin, where the ex-basketball player was being treated for a foot injury.

Until Zhao is independently measured by judges from the Guinness team however, he’ll have to wait before he is officially the world’s tallest living man.
