Tallest Man Alive Gets A Gift


The world’s tallest man, who lives in the Ukraine , received a bicycle from an engineer. The bike was custom built for his 8 ft. 5.5 inch body, and it meets all his riding needs. He looks like a child in a toy store, filled with happiness, in the first picture. It makes me happy to see him happy.
