World’s tallest man get’s married!

world’s tallest manYou might remember Bao Xishun also known as the world’s tallest man who saved 2 Dolphins by reaching into their stomachs with his 1.06 meter arms in December.Well, he’s getting married now and to someone shorter and younger! the bride(Xia Shujuan) is just 1.68 meters which is like 2/3 of Bao’s height(2.36 meters) and she’s just 29 years old which is nearly half his age(56). Xia who seems to be deeply in love with Bao says:

You need to have feelings for someone to be in love. Even if he is a big shot, you can’t love him without feelings

Meanwhile Bao is already thinking about children and playing basketball with them:

If we can have children, we’ll have children and If not, then not. If we have a child, I hope he or she can be 1.8-1.9 meters tall. Then he or she can play basketball.

Another interesting fact about their marriage is that everything in the wedding was sponsored by more than 15 companies trying to use world’s tallest man’s fame to make some cash!
