He way more than 400 you gotta think embid is 300 at 7'1" and he's no frail like wemby (and wemby is 250 at 7'5" and he's skin and bones) this kid is chubby at 7'11" I bet he's anywhere from 450 to 480 that's a big boy
If you stop the video at 1:12, it looks like he is past 7'10, maybe 7'10 1/2, except, he might be slumping or not, as his face seems forward. However he is wearing shoes which might add an inch. He should be measured in bare feet and not slumping. This is not definitive, other than he likely is at least 7'9" without shoes.
@@ChatterBoxBran 100% True. I would like to see this guy in person. Apparently he slumps because he has had to duck under doorways and ceilings and to be closer to people, which I think he might be 8 feet if he didn't. Massive......astoundingly so!
If he is a kid, like a teenager, you know the entire NBA has already scouted him by now. And they will get him in shape and build up his skills and strength for sure. There is a video online of him and Shaq together already as well.
I feel like he wouldn’t be as good as Shaq, reason why is because back then NBA was more physical than now. Nowadays you touch someone with a pinkie its a foul 😅
Hes a grown man it’s been proven but he likely has a disease called gigantism which causes you to never stop growing due to a brain tumor on the pituitary gland
He still is measure him barefoot on a proper doctor's measuring scale I would bet my life he is 7ft 7 or less! Hell I am 6 ft 6 in shoes but only 6ft 4 barefoot barley.
I do not envy him. Everything normal sized people take for granted is probably a struggle/challenge for him. Finding clothes, using the bathroom, driving a car, etc.
That’s true. I’m only 6’3” and some cars or off limits to me. Especially when having to rent one? So What kind of car could he possibly fit in comfortably? A full size convertible Hummer with the top down? Or a double decker bus with the second floor removed?
@@davidblake9287 not everyone drives a car. there are plenty of people normal height who choose to not drive and dont have a car. perhaps he simply wouldnt use one. he couldnt call a taxi either as he wouldnt fit it. probably he would stick with public transport but at this height thats hard for people with anxiety, he would attract attention from others
I met Manute Bol in Connecticut. He was 7’7. Girl in my class dad work at espn, only like 10 minutes away here in ct. so they had manute bol come in and I only got 1 on 1 pic with him. White school… and that teacher made me her teacher pet😅 thank you for that school.
A coach needs to get him started on strength conditioning. If this dude builds up his legs and becomes a little more athletic, he would definitely go to the NBA.
I hope his heart is healthy and strong. Sometimes, the really big guys have problems with their heart. That's what happened to Andre the Giant. His heart just gave out. Very sad since he died at 46. He might have lived longer if he wasn't doing physically demanding work in wrestling every day.
Hes clearly 7"8. With shoes i can see right there on the tape measure hes 2 inches shorter than 7"11 take the shoes off hes about 7:8 maybe less really at least in this video
Yes, last comment...7 foot eleven, weighing? 400? 425? To be honest, it looks like to me not many (including himself) are taking basketball all too serious based on his sagging body structure. Instead of the weightroom, he looks like he has been concentrating on McDonalds and Taco bell along with his standing partial windmill dunks. He would be 7-11 weighing 330-350 with some lean muscle if he had any NBA or professional people working with him.
Haven't you thought that the heavier you are, the higher chance of an injury, also with his height, hes already heavy himself to the point wheres its hard to exercise due to his mass and injuries that might occur
To my knowledge, the tallest confirmed basketball player was 8'0, and if true (which I am skeptical of) the tallest player ever was 8'4. But he might have been a circus performer who pretended to play basketball.
After he makes his point he is going to have to run and get back for defense, does he have the stamina to do that a whole game,from where i sit on my sofa as a couch potato i dont see it happening basketball is a fast game but good luck young man.
I think he would do well in college first. May I suggest that he go and play for a basketball conference like the Big 12 first before he goes to the pros? BYU is currently looking for a center for their basketball team.
The fact he grew means hes still young. What are the haters gonna say now. Ok prob not 14 but def like 17-18. Wgaf about the age, the dude is a foot taller than fuckin' Anthony Davis!! The dude is 8 foot! That's rarer than having hundreds of millions to your name!! (celebrities)
Wont matter… basketball isnt just a half court game..: the nba or even college will make sure hes running up and down the floor. Looks like his overall speed is a 15.
Unfortunately he is closer to 25 now and has many physical ailments that would prevent him from playing at any high level. He can’t really move laterally or get up and down the court.
The problem is can his skills be good enough to play in the NBA. The basketball league is not aiming to find the tallest player because there is no award for that.
Another video says he Is 79 and 14 yrs old. As he age he's going to slim up and develop some speed he'll need that for better footwork I like to see him in the NBA 4 years to grow another 2 or 3 inches would be crazy 8 feet in the NBA 😮😮😮
Did he get leaner? In the first part he looks like he has gyno, but that last shot he looks leaner, maybe it's just a good shirt lol. But if he really wants to play he neeeds to get in very good shape. Don't wanna be one of those mid bigs if he makes it
Notice height, including his tall stature, is a disadvantage, as it makes him run slowly and he is also somewhat overweight. NBA needs to have more people like Mugsie and Spud also, not just tall people. There are advantages to being shorter also, 5'6" e.g., such as running faster and defense (knocking ball out of opposing player's hand when it is at his waist during dribble or while holding it, e.g.).
The short people that have made it to the nba are either super athletic/skilled or exceptions with an average league height of 6’8 they will be complete disadvantages on defense while also getting consistently blocked. Even people like Aquila Carr, trae Jefferson did not make it. And the short 6ft dudes are having insane trouble. It’s also a rich people network contest it isn’t always the best people being drafted Bol Bol failed the draft twice and he is 7ft 2
*uhh he should be in the league why not. he"s not unstoppable. he's slow, one can just study then timing between him getting the ball and scoring in order to jumb and block at the right precised time. anyway he can shoot, pass. he would be entertaining to watch. sign him up*
@@RC-bx6cn theres been a few players like this that never got anywhere near the NBA, just because youre huge playing against kids, doesnt mean you can do it in the pros
problem is at that size you lose agility and athleticism you get awky and things hurt, the day to day contact in the NBA would be his downfall... gift and a curse

He has no business throwing dimes @ 7’9 😭

It's like me playing on 5:10 hoop 😂
He’s really really well built for 8 ft he probably weights like 400 lbs considering the mass he has at that height it’s amazing
He'll be coming into a league with unicorns now as big men so he'll be a minority now

how is it possible for someone that tall to add weight tho. he must of really bulked I'm talking like 10,000 calories a day.

I say shoes may add 1.5 inches. I saw the same height you saw. He is 7’10.5 and bare foot he would be 7’9 legit. Same height as Sun Mingming.
lol you sure? Got all the variables? Who cares. He’s tall.
That's the first dunk without jumping I've ever seen, damn.
Thats how nba players should be, heck it will entertaining if everyone is taller then the ring (10 feet or higher)

7'11 is I think way too tall to manage the speed and momentum of the NBA. He's never going to play NBA. His body and mass will only slow him down.
Yes i would like to see him in the n.b.a
Me too I hope he's make it in one day
I feel like he wouldn’t be as good as Shaq, reason why is because back then NBA was more physical than now. Nowadays you touch someone with a pinkie its a foul 😅

@jeremiahsymonette4781 To be able to maneuver to get to the point, where he dunks
You people that say this guy is an nba prospect are ridiculous he can’t even move
Exactly but people believe height is everything in basketball when it’s really not
Yoi dont need mobility when everything is small
1:27 is that a Jawa guarding him?
Good luck, big fella 😏 Got a long road ahead of ya 🏀
He's 30 fasho
He seems fragile and injury-prone. I'm not sure about the NBA, but if he puts the dedication and work effort, a pro league somewhere might work.

Actually looks healthy, most kids near that height act like it’s painful to walk.

Just the fact that he can't run back in defence will probably cost him a potentially end of the bench spot. But hey, keep grinding young boy.
He has the agility of a sloth.
One serious budge from a well-built pro and he's snapping like a twig.
He looks very very young ! Bigggg boy!!! 😊
This man is a liability on the court,he can't move,run nor anything else and he's probably in his thirties
measure properly no shoes draw a line how hard is that to do? more like 7’8”
Looks like he's having weight problems which will be hard on his knees
imagine having to guard him. bet wemby couldn't
That’s because u don’t understand the game
Wemby could with his 8ft wingspan 😂😂

Long live naija
Worth for NBA to hire him to G-league to see how he does. Some people might by ticket just to verify human can grow this big.
Yea he 8ft but he don't play above the rim. If he doesn't get some lift hes gonna be getting dunked on a lot basically a highlight reel.
Bro image walking down a hall and you see a 7.11 giant walking around with his hair hitting the celling
Def the kid is NBA material just in his court game!

you still need to be able to jump a little to play big boy ball .. he can dunk flatfooted but can he defend guys who can leap to 15 feet .
