New Tallest Man Found in Inner Mongolia

If you're trying to get into the Guinness Book of Records, you probably won't
break this record:
New Tallest Man Found in Inner Mongolia.

A
herdsman from North China's Inner Mongolia has been recognized by the Guinness
Book of World Records as the tallest naturally-growing human being.

He measures a whopping 7 foot 8.95 inch (2 meters 36.1 centimeters), taller
than Radhouane Charbib who, for the last six years, has held the title of
world's tallest living man.

Unlike most giants, the 54-year old Mongol, who has been living on a
pastureland near Chifeng City since his childhood, has grown to this
remarkable height naturally, and not as a result of a medical condition. His
growth was normal until the age of 16, after which an inexplicable growth
spurt saw his reach his record height in just seven years.
