I don't really think I'd call Robert Wadlow's glandular disorder "3rd party interference", but this is interesting nonetheless.

At 7'9", it must be such a pain in the ass to find clothes, especially in China.

My girlfriend (who is 5'4") saw me reading this article and said "Oh, are they talking about you?" (I am 6'1")

Yeah, I didn't think it was very funny either. :p

Wadlow is still tallest in my book. I mean who cares if he has a disorder, thats a natural thing. It not like its some magical growth drug, he didnt choose to have that condition. The worlds become too nice with things. Guinnes screws up alot of stuff especially with typos. Look at the one they have in their '03 book on pg.140 If you dont have it heres what it says:


A McLaren F1 driven by Andy Wallace (UK) at the Volkswagen Proving groung, Wolfsburg, Germany, on March 31 1998, reached 2401.1 mph.......
