In the annals of human stature, one name reigns supreme: Robert Pershing Wadlow. Towering above all, Wadlow, hailing from the USA, reached a monumental height of 2.72 meters (8 ft 11.1 in) in 1940.

His towering presence, surpassing the average adult by at least one meter (3 ft 2 in), demanded an astounding 8,000 daily calories, a feat unmatched in its scale for over 80 years.
