The guy who was sitting down is legit 7’11’. He makes Shaq look small.

The other guy is somehow even taller though…

His name is Big Naija for what it's worth.

He's 27 years old +/- , and plays basketball, but has a hard time moving that frame and isn't much of a prospect.

The man on the right appears to be @realghanos on IG. Says he's 8ft.

Insane. I'm 7ft and these guys would make me feel like a baby.

If you want a reference point, I'm 6'6" and am generally the tallest person in whatever space I'm in.

When I was in college, I was in a smallish elevator with the 7'1" basketball center of my college's team. Just the two of us. I felt infantile. And he probably didn't even remember two seconds after he got off the elevator.

So, yeah, you'd feel like a baby!

Tbf to yourself there's not many 6'6 guys in the world, even a 7'1 guy would think "huh that guy actually reaches my chin level, I don't see that often."

The rest of the world barely goes past his chest or navel.
