World's tallest man struggles to fit inOLGA BONDARUK, Associated Press Writer
PODOLYANTSI, Ukraine - Leonid Stadnik's phenomenal height has forced him to quit a job he loved, to stoop as he moves around his house and to spend most of his time in his tiny home village because he cannot fit in a car or bus. But Stadnik, who according to the Guinness World Records is the world's tallest human, says his condition has also taught him that the world is filled with kindhearted strangers.
Since his recognition by Ukrainian record keepers four years ago, and by Guinness last year, people from all over Ukraine and the world have shipped him outsized clothing, provided his home with running water and recently presented him with a giant bicycle.
"Thanks to good people I have shoes and clothes," said the 37-year-old former veterinarian, who still lives with his 66-year-old mother. [AP] Leia mais aqui com imagem da AP.

PODOLYANTSI, Ucrânia - a altura phenomenal de Leonid Stadnik forçou-o a parar um trabalho que amou, inclinar-se enquanto se move na sua casa e para passa a maior parte do seu tempo em sua vila natal porque não pode caber num carro ou em uma autocarro. Mas Stadnik, que de acordo com os registros de mundo de Guinness é o ser humano mais alto do mundo, diz sua condição o tem ensinado também que o mundo está enchido com desconhecidos cheias de boa vontade.
Nota: Caso para se indignar que afinal o gigante de Manjacaze ficou atra's, so' vai ficar para as sete maravilhas da TVM/RM/Jornal Noticias.
