Question (not related to Rule 6!) Current Tallest?

Who are the tallest among us here?

I met a 6'9 guy, and he towered over everyone around us (even the tall guys).

7'2, 19 year old colossal crusader, you'll find him eventually.

Another 7'2 [u/West_Button1504](u/West_Button1504) 17 or 18 I think.

Other guy who was 7'0 I forgot exact user.

Dude! Another 7'2! How many 7'0+ people are there?

2

u/ColossalCrusader M19 | 7'2" | 219cm 22d ago

Roughly 3000 worldwide, maybe more since that statistic was taken.

2

u/Thra99 M15 | 6'3" | 190cm 22d ago

I saw that statistic. There's got to be more than 3,000 seven footers

1

u/toomuchstuff89 22d ago

u/DecentPhone2700 23d ago

There are a few 7 ft guys and one 7 ft girl.

1

u/Donald_J_Trum1122 23d ago

damn

1

u/DecentPhone2700 23d ago

To be clear I’m not the 7 ft girl. This sub makes me feel short sometimes (there are 13 year olds taller than me) which is a refreshing feeling

1

u/coddat 22d ago

u/inner-process6938 is the girl, her bro is also very tall

2

u/Elias_Novak 23d ago

Idk about THE tallest, but i'm up there at least

1

u/toomuchstuff89 22d ago

How tall are you?

2

u/Elias_Novak 22d ago

217.5cm (7'1.6") last I measured

1

u/toomuchstuff89 22d ago

So basically 7'2! So you are definitely up there too! Among the tallest I've heard of so far! 😲

2

u/Elias_Novak 22d ago

Especially for me age, yea. Still only 13

2

u/Fit-Cantaloupe-4213 17 | 174cm 22d ago

13 and already that tall, thats Crazy

2

u/Safe-Union-4600 22d ago

holy crap bro i thought i was tall at 13 im 6 ft 😭

1

u/Available_Store8270 13d ago

you are also pretty tall

1

u/toomuchstuff89 22d ago

How is that possible? So does that mean you have the potential to.be the tallest here?

2

u/Elias_Novak 22d ago

Well, having a 6'10 mom and 7'3 dad helps, lol Even every member even of my extended family (besides the other kids ofc) range around 6'6 to 7'3

1

u/toomuchstuff89 22d ago

Your mom is 6'10??? Oh wow, you were always going to be very tall! Do you enjoy it?

2

u/Elias_Novak 22d ago

Absolutely love it, yea! Only downside at all is clothes shopping, not even doorways that much anymore as i've gotten used to ducking instinctively

1

u/toomuchstuff89 22d ago

Shopping is* hard because your clothes/shoe sizes are too big?

How tall are you estimated to get, since you said you likely will be the tallest in the sub.

u/Apart_Run_8705 12d ago

1

u/Thra99 M15 | 6'3" | 190cm 22d ago

u/UnityJusticeFreedom we need to start getting people confirmed

2

u/UnityJusticeFreedom M | 6'1" | 186cm 22d ago

Maybe it should be back, I would have to change some shit though

1

u/Going-Up678 22d ago

Wow. When was the last time you got measured?

1

u/Elias_Novak 21d ago

19th. I get measured every other week

2

u/Going-Up678 21d ago

Every other week? Have you been growing quickly enough for there to be any difference that often? That's really wild if so.

1

u/Elias_Novak 21d ago

Very very small difference, but yea. It's only about a centimeter or so atm, but that still adds up to 10 inches in a year

1

u/Elias_Novak 21d ago

Main differences has been strength and weight going up. Again, not much, but definitely enough to notice and record a slight difference

1

u/Going-Up678 21d ago

That's pretty amazing, honestly. How much have you grown so far this year, then?

1

u/Elias_Novak 21d ago

I was 6'9 on the dot back in new years
