Poor guy :( I wear size 14 and I get a headache looking for shoes.<BR/><BR/> I had the luxury of meeting Andre The Giant a few times during his stay on this planet, he suffered of a disease similar to the one Mr Wadlow suffered from. I must admit, even though he was this mountain of a man, who litterally made a pint a beer look like a thimble in my hand, he was one of the nicest individuals that I have been blessed to have met. Kind hearted, dealt with a lot of pain both physical and mental due to the criticism from the public on a daily basis, but he never once complained about either during my time with him. R.I.P. Mon Ami :)<BR/><BR/>I can imagine Robert most likely dealt with the same issues. It's amazing how often we take things for granted. Thanks Leesa for reminding me of one of my great moments of my life.<BR/><BR/>Cheers!<BR/><BR/>Pyth0sAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16163858.post-1164922381333439722006-11-30T16:33:00.000-05:002006-11-30T16:33:00.000-05:00I recognized the name immediately.

And not too long ago, there was a program on A&E or National Geographic, or one of those learning channels, about him.UnHoly Diverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17187969959701732817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16163858.post-1164911215910353232006-11-30T13:26:00.000-05:002006-11-30T13:26:00.000-05:00I remember when they showed this to us in school a...I remember when they showed this to us in school about the tallest man. I also saw something on the discovery channel about what makes them like that. It's fascinating. I didn't know that he had some blood disease due to his shoes not fitting right. Hmm. <BR/><BR/>The whole Guinness Book of record is crazy! Have you seen that Indian man with finger nails about 20 ft long that curl up? EEEK! Can you imagine how much bacteria is under those nails of his? My OCD cringes of the thought!!!Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14986475569600734742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16163858.post-1164908450037316282006-11-30T12:40:00.000-05:002006-11-30T12:40:00.000-05:00Actually I did know the name :)I used to love to r...Actually I did know the name :)<BR/>I used to love to read the Guinness Book of World Records.Leesahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11436139686290653801noreply@blogger.com
