R.I.P Robert Wadlow
imagine hes cock
They forgot to mention that he was very intelligent, studied law, had many girlfriends, gave to charities, had a fun loving charisma and was apart of the grand lodge he was Master mason also the youngest member to join.
Wooooow 😮
Queen Bulova Thank you for the extra info! I didn't know most of these, but, from the funeral wreath seen at minute 5:14 I was able to guess that he had some connection with the massonery. Now I clearly understand how exactly he was connected to them.
He had many girlfriends?..the first thing that came to my head was whether or not he had a giant penis too.
Mason?? 🤨
I wondered about the masonic symbol at the funeral.
I like how his parents supported him instead of trying to make money.
The sad truth is that his father exploited him. He usually asked for money when people wanted to take photos of him
His mother even burned pretty much all his stuff so it wouldn’t be sold for money.
@@Levszan They say that He loved kids, and sometimes gone at the street so they can take photos of Him...
does that mean He mugged children?
@@Levszan Exploited may not be the correct term. It was different times and at the era of the Great Depression. People needed to make a dollar.

@@salmanmammu2473 Even 40 is very young... I wish he would live to see his hair turn gray!
He must of been over 9ft in his shoes.
I don’t think he had a tumor his pituitary gland was just so big that it produced too much growth in his body 1:30
Maybe fortunate for him, it must have been extremely exhausting for him to move around. And he probably was tired of his life

@stan iz*one for a better future he died 80 years ago
When I was around 11 years old, I lived in a small town of a couple of thousand people. The largest grocery store in town had a meat supplier that had a giant that would go around to all of the grocery stores advertising the quality of the beef he raised. The whole town showed up to see him. This man was 8ft 2in tall and had a size 24 shoe. He drove a 65 Chevy Impala where the had to take out back seat, move the front seat almost as far back in the car as it would go, and extend the steering column so he could drive it.
It was a sight watching him crouch down to get through the door. He was a very nice gentleman and stayed signing autographs and answering questions for I don't know how long?
I do remember a woman asking him if he was married, and he said yes. And then, a woman asked how tall she was, and when he said 5ft 4in...you should have heard the gasps and giggles!? I didn't know what that truly meant at the time but...
Anyway...this brought back that memory. Thought I'd share...

I lost my sister at age 18 due to lupus and kidney failure. She lived in constant pain from the day she was born. But she also got the opportunities to travel and see the world. She met so many people through it. He life wasn’t tragic. Her life was hard, yes. But not tragic by any means.

Sometimes you can just see innocence and a kind temperament through a person’s face - and I see so much of those things in Robert. I feel like this poor guy didn’t get the chance he deserved in life. They say ‘bad things happen to good people’ and here’s an example to that saying. It’s tragic for anyone to pass at 22 but somehow it seems crueller when it happened to a gentle and affable person. If there is an afterlife, I hope Robert has lots of friends, his own height, running and playing and climbing and feeling as free as a bird.

If this dude played basket ball he could literally just walk up to the rim and drop it in
Basketball is one word
@@beautifulvisualss What are you the spelling police?
He would barely be able to walk without a cane
TrolleyXLakers __ again he could just camp in the paint if he couldn’t post up his superhuman wingspan would just have him drop the ball in
TrolleyXLakers __ well I mean there weren’t that much violations put into place especially during the very early stages of basketball so maybe he would be able to
If he became a bodybuilder and joined the Army, Man he would've been one scary dude
He would've got sniped
I think there's a height limit to joining the military, but idk what it was in the 1930s and 1940s or even if there was one.
BSA 悟 he woulda been easy target to shoot lmao
It's basically impossible to be a bodybuilder at nearly 9 feet lmfao imagine the size of his meals and his workout schedule if he would want to make his biceps even 1 inch bigger
Yeah no, I'm 6'6 and struggle enough, this man would probably snap

@@madibox6484 its not hard bruv he's talking about Lil uzis height after standing on his cash
You know this guy as a kid wouldnt get bullied and would probably be a great friend
R.i.P
Now this would be the only reason I’d believe slender man
Hype Δ I THOUGHT ABOUT THAT TOO
Imagine Robert casually strolling through the woods when he sees a faceless character about a head shorter than him lmao
What id he is slender man
Ur telling me this man was my height when he was just 5?!? Jfc
Ikr, that's insane, imagine standing next to him when he was 5 thinking he's a teenager and then he's like "Santa got me a toy car last Christmas"
@RyanZ bts didnt harm u could u jus stfu
You are 5 feet 4 inch? Dude ur really short
RyanZ stfu no one asked for you opinion
@@sylvio1687 depends on age
I saw him but made of wax, at Believe It Or Not! In San Francisco. It was cool seeing him. That’s so cool how he was the tallest man! He looked really friendly and nice. I wish I can meet him in person.
You cannot meet him in person...😅
I went to Canada and there was a wax statue of him, and they had to put a square about 5 inches deep in the floor so it would fit
soon you will
He dead bro.... cant meet in person.
I saw him at the belive it or not museum in Australia Queensland but I don't go there often because I live in NSW. But he is really tall and there was a video on a square B cmx tv of people trying to touch his arms while he lifted his arm straight out.
He made his own history, he will be remembered for centuries.
As Fallout Boy said.
That's the saying. Life should not be long, it should be great. That's his.
So your saying everyone should die at age 25 or below?
Mine?
@@redwings164 i think he meant life should be lived to its fullest instead of wanting to live long
Edit : fixed some spelling errors
IDK Drewy your right it’s a good comment who would like to live 100 years plus and not do anything decent
What a stupid fucking comment
I thought he died cause his heart wasn’t able to support his body as he was still growing
It seemed inevitable either way
it was from constant masterbation
Nope, he got a foot infection & didn’t know about it for awhile because he’d lost alot of feeling in his lower legs. When it got really bad, it was too late to do anything with 1940 medicine being where it was.
Infection as said. Simple antibiotics would have saved him long enough to hit over 9 foot, 10 years later he'd have had a chance, but ultimately back then without the medical knowledge to halt his growth he was doomed. It's unlikely anyone will ever beat his height now because they'd almost certainly get medical help to stop them from growing.
ANONYMOUS you're thinking of Andre the Giant
In every picture and video he looks so happy. I know that some of the people associated with the traveling circuses had a miserable life, but Robert seemed like he enjoyed the attention and admiration from people and did his best to be magnanimous and outgoing with the folks who came to see him. What a remarkable guy. I hope he's resting in peace.
