I wonder who though this up.

Has Gillispie offered Xishun a scholarship yet?

The 7.9 ft man is 56 years old!!! Wow is astonishing in itself that a man of that height has lived that long. Usually people with gigantism have years cut off their life so that is pretty interesting. Also the 2.4ft man who is 19 years old seems to be doing rather well for his age. Alot of the times Progeria patients do not live to be out of their teens. Both of these people are walking miracles.

Yeah but he's 19 and looks 90. The big dude looks old too, but the little dude just looks like a sophisticated 90 year old.

Oh yeah i know man. The Progeria patients usually look like they are in there 50's straight from birth. It is really such a tragic disease to be so young and have your body age to that extent. I think that it is just plain amazing that the 19 year od progeria patient is getting around that well even if he looks like a sophisticated 90 year old :thumpsup:.

I hope this doesn't sound bad, but it almost looks like the short guy is the tall guy's ventriloquist dummy! Smile

I guess I shouldn't feel so bad about being so short, since I'm only 4'11".
