21 forever :NOT TRYING TO BE RUDE IN ANYWAY TO PPL THAT HAVE DIED IN THEIR 20s IT WAS JUST A JOKE I FEEL SO BAD FOR ALL THE PPL THAT DID HAVE TO DIE IN THEIR 20s and i hope they have a good life in heaven-
I know he's such an inspiration for being so humble about his height... Not that his height was a bad thing but he was so good for not thinking bad of himself. I'm tall for an 11 year old girl and I always consider myself a freak!
I read up on him in a Guinness world records book, specifically the 2016 world records book, and this is what I got (yes, it’s been 9 years but it still sticks with me today - that’s how I know this). His full name is Robert Pershing Wadlow. He stood 8’ 11” at one point in his 22-year-long life, the current world record for the tallest man ever (the tallest LIVING man is 8’ 2”). When Robert was born, a mutation involving the protein/glucose that controlled his body growth occurred, resulting in him eventually being taller than his dad at only 8 years old.
He was actually normal sized when he was born, it’s reported he didn’t start growing at an insane rate until he between 6 months - 1 year old. His growth was caused by something (forgot the name of it) that affected his Pituitary Gland in his brain which controls your height which is how people grow to only be 4’2” or smaller, or 7”0’ + because the Pituitary gland plays apart in your height
Being tall causes joint pain? Bruh if you be careful enough, joint pain will never happen. Don't be ridiculous, also weren't you those women who want their man be that tall?
Man this guy was kind and a gentle giant it was sad that he live short and many people attended his funeral and care about here but his now in Heaven may he rest in peace 😢
The tallest man in history was Robert Wadlow, who stood at 8 feet 11.1 inches tall. He was born on Feb. 22, 1918. Wadlow's height came as a result of pituitary gigantism. By the time he was 5, Wadlow was 5 feet 4 inches tall, Guinness World Records reports. At 8 years old, he was nearly 6 feet tall. Wadlow also holds the record for the largest feet and the largest hands ever. Wadlow's feet measured 18.5 inches long and his hands were 12.7 inches long from his wrist to the tip of his middle finger. Wadlow died on July 15, 1940, due to an infection. He was 22 years old.
The craziest thing is that people usually stop growing at 25, but robert most likely would have never stopped growing. It was a defective leg brace that cost him his life, and potentially further growth
Simpler explanation: Robert wadlow had a tumor that made him grow ( i think thats what made him tall) he came to a height at 9'11 or something idk, but the metal brace infected his ankle and he passed away in his sleep R.I.P robert
Thats confirm his unbelivable height caused by a tumor at the pituitary gland in the brain at age 12 but in the 30's thats impossible to operate him like today thats not garanteed of success at the time😢
Oh that's sad ☹️. With the first picture my only thought was that he would have trouble getting through doors because I thought it was more of a modern time.
His name was Robert Wadlow, he was born on February 22, 1918. He grew to a height of 8’11. He died in 1940. He died so young at 22 years old, RIP Robert 🪦🙏.
“He never considered himself a freak.” No one should consider themselves a freak! We are all unique in our own ways, we’re human beings, not perfect beings. R.I.P big guy.😢 I hope you had a good life🙏🏼
Don't tell your age to people on social media expect for you friends or family because people will make more fun of you because ur 10 or if they dont they will make fun of you bc you told then ur age so please keep ur age secret
It's always tragic when someone passes away in their 20's.
Yeah
@maxwell means
WW2 and that is all I'm gonna say
Because of height

If anyone wonders his full name was Robert Pershing Wadlow and he was 2,72m or 8'11
True, and he was from Alton, Illinois about 15 minutes from north county St Louis my home town.

It's also in Guinness world records 2018 btw
Bro it’s been 9 years since 2016- ?!? 💀
It is not 2016 and 2018
Imagine his poor mother that had to take all of the pain to give birth to this legend 😭💔
He was average size at birth 8lbs 6 oz he didn't start growing like that until he was 6 months old.
My cousin is 9lbs but he weighed 8.87lbs
When he was born
He probably was a normal sized baby

When he said "by the time he was 8 years old. He was taller than his father"
I was so surprised
My mouth dropped to the floor.
Same. I've never seen an actual giant before
when he was 6 he's five foot tall
@@WildManggoeHere when hes 5 hes 5’4”
Everything is probably just small and he's not big at all
22 is so incredibly young. His life should have just been starting to blossom. And I’m sure being that tall led to horrible joint pain. Poor kid. :(

How Are you crying
@@alexandersmit6560 bc it’s sad,he died in his 20’s. imagine being his parents and your son dies in his 20’s
I always thought that not feeling pain is a good thing, but turned out feeling pain is what helps us to get out of dangerous situations.
True
I learned that at age of 6 and I learned it the hard way.
Are you stalking me?
If you never feel pain, then the dangerous situation would never exist. Because nothing can make you feel pain or be sad anyway.

I feel bad for the mom, imagine all the pain she had went through to give us this amazing man

Oh Im sorry for your loss
@@Swiftie98it’s ok it’s been about 17 months since then 😊
It’s pretty amazing to see someone that is 8’11”. But it is tragic that Robert died at age 22.
You are the best youtuber
The craziest thing is that people usually stop growing at 25, but robert most likely would have never stopped growing. It was a defective leg brace that cost him his life, and potentially further growth
That’s what I’m sayin. Usually these people die from their own disease but he died cuz of an infection.
Simpler explanation: Robert wadlow had a tumor that made him grow ( i think thats what made him tall) he came to a height at 9'11 or something idk, but the metal brace infected his ankle and he passed away in his sleep R.I.P robert
That was a terrible explanation 😂
Acromegaly tumor in the pituitary gland over produces growth hormones
8'11, not 9'11
Thats confirm his unbelivable height caused by a tumor at the pituitary gland in the brain at age 12 but in the 30's thats impossible to operate him like today thats not garanteed of success at the time😢
Someone else in the comments said that he was tall because of a protein/glucose mutation that controlled his body growth.
Oh my God that is so sad. I’m so sorry Robert.
He doesn't deserve to die😢
THIS GUY SHOULD BE SLENDERMAN, (ngl his story is pretty sad)

Rest in peace
Your height is amazing
Why did he have to die he could’ve got a life or a dog for kids if I was there I would give him my soul so he could live a happy life
Its a mercy that he died at 22. He could have potentially ended up growing even bigger which could potentially cause more priblems
the tall girls at my school: don’t care 😊😊 (continues to be mad and dead inside) ☠️☠️
