These Guinness Title Holders Don’t Live Normal Lives but Set World Records

Sultan Kosen, the Tallest Living Man

Sultan Kosen is standing 8 feet and 2.8 inches. This Guiness World Record titleholder came from a family with siblings who all have average size.

Kosen was 10 years old when he began growing tall uncontrollably. His enormous height is caused by pituitary gigantism, which happens when the body overproduces the growth hormone.
