Guinness World Records 2009: Sultan Kosen
The Guinness Book of World Records has confirmed that Sultan Kosen is the world’s tallest man. At eight foot one inch tall, the Turkish man is hoping that now that he is famous he will get a chance in love.
He doesn’t fit in a normal car, He has to get his clothes custom made, yet not fashionable and he’s never had a girlfriend: Some of the disadvantages of being so tall.
The Guinness Book of World Records has confirmed that Sultan Kosen is the world’s tallest man. At 8 foot 1 inch tall, the Turkish man is hoping that now that he is famous he will get a chance in love. I am looking forward to getting married, Kosen, 27, told reporters in London.
Records indicate that due to a tumor-related damage in the pituitary gland, Kosen grew past the eighth foot meter. In addition, he has enormous hands and feet.
When the Associated Press asked Kosen if he had to choose between prosperity and calm, what would he choose? He said he preferred to be in a calm state. Kosen also told reporters that he is tired of being in the public eye.

Read about it on the news today and I absolutely love this. This man is worth all of the attention he can get, I mean the guinnes book of world records is admirable…You and mzmax have done a really good job and well done on the hot content.
Wow! that is a terrible way to get a girlfriend, but then what else can he do?
I thought he has the Morphan syndrome, but thank goodness that it is not, because that can kill you. The pitutiary problems may be less dangerous. I hope he can find happiness.
