Guinness World Records unveils New Tallest Man!

The 2010 edition of the Guinness World Records book unveils a world exclusive in the shape of a new Worlds Tallest Man.

Guinness World Records Editor-in-chief, Craig Glenday, travelled to Turkey earlier this year to personally validate the claim of 27 year old Sultan Kosen who measures a staggering 8ft 1in (246.5cm). Sultan also has the worlds largest hands and largest feet measuring 27.5 cm and 36.5 cm respectively. He is the first person to officially measure over 8 ft in more than a decade and is a triple record holder. He stole the record from Bao Xishun (Mongolia), after Leonid Stadnyks (Ukraine) claim to the title was discredited when he refused to be independently measured.

NOT TRUE!

Worlds largest hands and largest feet measuring 27.5 cm and 36.5 cm respectively"

36.5 cm feet are the equivalent to us male size 19-20

Bigger feet then 36.5 cm are quit common on shorter men. The same goes with hand size. So his limbs are not the biggest in the world.

Even my feet are bigger then stated so did a little googe..

NBA Shaq O'Neal is a size US 23. And UNCA Kenneth George use a size US 28
