Yeah Canson, off-court it’s probably no picnic...especially on public transport, driving, finding clothes, beds, furniture...basic living arrangements...Wadlow-esque up to a point...

@Chaos and Rampage: maybe I’d try for a day or two but that’s about all lol. Thank God I wouldn’t have to stay at that permanently

7ft3¾....God, I'd love to test-drive that baby for the day
Yeah I can imagine being 220cm+ would be pretty fun. I’d try it for a week over a day though, it would let you get a bit more used to moving around and living at that size (surely if you’re that tall you’ve gotta weigh at least 280 pounds right)

If Fingleton only had a 42 inseam do you still think Eaton was 44-45? I would have guessed 44-45 for Fingleton and around 42 for Mark.

Actually Neil Fingleton's inseam was "only" 42, and he was 7'7 range!

It is true Viper, but then two of them were both 93. Nobody under 80 died. I don't think it helped, put it that way... Didn't Neil Fingleton say he had a 44 inch inseam? At 7 ft 7 and half? That's what I was thinking of in relation to.

I wonder what inseam Mark wore, at least 40 I'd have thought.
Oh it would be way more ham that. This site’s very own Rampage is nearly a foot shorter than Mark Eaton and has a 39 I think. Mark’s was easily 45”

Not necessarily, a small minority of people have had blood clots on the heart and brain to the point they stopped administering the AZ one in most European counties. Obviously it's only a small percentage affected though as it's 1 billion odd people vaccinated now.

Very sad indeed to hear that he died. He was one of the most normal looking out of the legit giants, looked a nice guy too. As normal as you could possibly get for near 7 ft 4!! NBA site says "apparent" accident, don't seem convinced. No vehicle involved in the incident, it was on a bicycle not a motorbike.. You don't die from falling off a bicycle unless you're going 50 mph downhill!! Hope it wasn't a heart attack/related to the vaccine, three older people in my distant family have died weeks/months after having it now...
Don’t bring vaccine stuff into this, it’s not proven to cause any ill effects

@viper he died in a bike crash, life expectancy at his size had nothing to do with how he died with all due respect.

i think that the 7ft3 3/4 figure that he measured in his peak was a morning figure .here is an old shrunken mark eaton with a 7 foot rudy gobert Click Here looks max 2 inches taller making him around 7ft2 at best today.and i doubt that he shrunk as much as 2 inches already. 7ft3 peak, 7ft2 today.

Now this is what you call a legit (natural) super giant. Doesn't look freakish in proportions or ill. I see Rob has 210cm as the cut off point for the Tallest Men category which I agree with.

Hey Rob, will Bill Russell get his own page, he was sometimes under billed at 6ft9 but he appears the exact same height as Tim Duncan. I feel he might be 6ft9.75.

Looks to be about 3 inches shorter than 7-6ish Bradley here Click Here although Bradley may have the advantage with camera positioning. I would say he is closer to 7-3 these days (he is 61) could have definitely been closer to 7-4 in his playing days though, definitely a massive individual.

Yup Eaton is honest about his 7ft3.75 height. Look at how he towers over Karl Malone, and Hakeem Olajuwon.

Nice one. Him and Shawn seem quite angry with Yao and Ralph being listed at their heights. This looks legit with Bill Walton. Extremely rare for a man to naturally be this tall and healthy with a strong build. He looks the most normal guy of this size I've ever seen.
