Tallest man ever

Posted on May 30th, 2007 by The SUBWAYblogger in Live Blogging On the Subway

I’m standing near the tallest man I have ever seen! How he rides the train is amazing to me.

He’s so tall that his shoulders touch the ceiling just inside the doors. He doesn’t just have to bend is neck a little to avoid hitting his head. He has to all out bend over!

On this kind of train, the ceiling is about 8 inches lower where the doors are. One you move into the middle of the isles, it is higher. So he has to stand there. Even then, he isn’t missing hitting his head by much.

Getting on to this train, he looks like a grown-up trying to climb into the jungle gym at McDonalds. The door clearance is even lower than the ceiling inside.

It must be nuts seeing him go through the turnstile. The bar must hit him in the knees!

Live from the subway, back to you in studio… .

    How tall do you think this person is? I am guessing based on this description he sounds to be around 7,6″ or possibly even 7,7″ but I doubt any taller or otherwise he might get recognized for being the tallest man in the world lol!

    I´ve been reading your blog for awhile and it for no reason occurred to me to comment. Which is fully ironic, for the reason that I´ve spent quite a lot of time over the history few months studying what it takes to make people comment on my own website. Soon after reading a couple of your posts I guess it´s controversial topics that stir people´s emotions to the point exactly where they can´t simply ´let it go.´

    I also ran into a really tall man recently. I think when you're that tall, it's not a fun experience as you're seen as abnormal and you also have trouble getting into doors or fitting in cars and such.

    I would like to add that in case you do not already have got an insurance policy otherwise you do not remain in any group insurance, you will well benefit from seeking aid from a health agent. Self-employed or people with medical conditions commonly seek the help of an health insurance dealer. Thanks for your writing.

    Thanks for the suggestions you have discussed here. In addition, I believe there are numerous factors which keep your insurance premium down. One is, to bear in mind buying autos that are within the good listing of car insurance firms. Cars which are expensive tend to be at risk of being lost. Aside from that insurance policies are also based on the value of your car or truck, so the costlier it is, then higher your premium you pay.

    Thanks for sharing your ideas. Another thing is that individuals have an option between government student loan as well as a private education loan where its easier to select student loan online debt consolidation than over the federal education loan.

    I have mastered some points through your blog post post. One other stuff I would like to convey is that there are numerous games out there designed specifically for preschool age kids. They incorporate pattern acknowledgement, colors, family pets, and shapes. These generally focus on familiarization in lieu of memorization. This keeps little children occupied without sensing like they are learning. Thanks

    Thanks for your article. It is rather unfortunate that over the last 10 years, the travel industry has had to take on terrorism, SARS, tsunamis, flu virus, swine flu, and the first ever true global tough economy. Through everthing the industry has really proven to be powerful, resilient and also dynamic, obtaining new approaches to deal with adversity. There are generally fresh difficulties and opportunity to which the field must once more adapt and react.

    I have seen a lot of useful items on your web-site about desktops. However, I’ve got the impression that laptops are still more or less not powerful adequately to be a sensible choice if you typically do jobs that require a great deal of power, such as video modifying. But for website surfing, microsoft word processing, and a lot other frequent computer functions they are just fine, provided you do not mind the little screen size. Thank you sharing your ideas.

    Thanks for the publish. My spouse and i have usually noticed that most people are desirous to lose weight as they wish to look slim in addition to looking attractive. On the other hand, they do not often realize that there are many benefits for losing weight as well. Doctors say that fat people experience a variety of disorders that can be perfectely attributed to their own excess weight. Fortunately that people who’re overweight and also suffering from several diseases can reduce the severity of the illnesses simply by losing weight. It is easy to see a constant but identifiable improvement in health while even a small amount of weight loss is obtained.

    I’m not sure why but this blog is loading very slow for me. Is anyone else having this problem or is it a problem on my end? I’ll check back later and see if the problem still exists.
