TIANJIN, China (Reuters Life!) - At 2.46 meters (8 ft 1 in) tall, China's Zhao Liang may well be the world's tallest person. All he needs is to be officially measured.
The 27-year-old was recently measured by doctors who were treating him for a foot injury, and was found to be some 10 cm higher than Bao Xishun, the 57-year-old Chinese man currently holding the Guinness World Record for tallest man.
Zhao's grandfather was 2 meters (6 ft 7 in) tall, but his parents and two siblings are of average height.
