Where's Waldo?!

OK so this isn't a picture of Waldo, but take a wild guess at who it is. If you guessed Xi Shun, you're right! This is the world's tallest living man, at towering at 7 feet 9 inches, this guy's a giant... not sure if he's a real 'giant' with six fingers & toes and two rows of teeth (at least one hand had 5 fingers we're sure of)... but this guy is enormous!
I've met the tallest woman in the world, Sandy Allen, around my 10th birthday when my family took a road trip to Niagara Falls. She was the star at the Ripley's Believe It or Not museum. Pretty amazing how tall she really is when standing next to her (even as a ten year old)...and this guy's almost two inches taller. Those are two people I would definately not sit behind in the movie theater.

Dear "Brian",
This is a 'suggestion' from a 'friend'. This 'friend' thinks that it might be 'smarter' to refrain from this type of 'behavior'...unless you are 'interested' in having a certain 'picture' of yourself in a 'green' shirt at a certain 'ranch'-type establishment posted in someone's 'blog'.

Just so you know...
