Tallest man towers over Brazilians

November 08, 2006

The world's tallest living man Xi Shun is touring Brazil to celebrate the world record book's 'Guinness Day' on November 9th. It was an ordinary day in Rio de Janeiro's downtown until a strangely large figure emerged in the middle of the curious crowd. At a height of 7 feet and 8 inches, the world's tallest man almost had trouble getting through the door of a bookstore, where he promoted the Guinness Book of World Records.
