      Actually he was only 7.1 feet (2.39 m) tall. But that’s still impressive!

      I actually get paid for my comments - the more hate the better for me. So sad :(

    4. It’s a photoshop - I can tell from the pixels.

      Did you know Stalin was 1.56 ? That’s why he was usually photographed seated or from a frog’s perspective.

      slight correction:
      2.39m is 7 feet 10 inches, not 7.1 feet

      btw, looking at him compared to the furniture around him, he is tall, but he really can’t be 2.85. That would not fit in most rooms.

      LAst foto shows Russian invention of “World’s Tallest Man Hat Installation Machine”. Nation leaders was worried about how to make Fedor wear on a hat. Top Scientists labor in secret many year to invent this device so that Fedor could go into public with a hat. To this day no nation has machine equal to this. It is great acheivement. But no one has yet invented “World’s Tallest Man Hat Removal Machine”
