Have you ever been told that you are too short or too tall?
Well, don't worry. Everyone is short compared to one man who was born in the United States in 1918.
His name was Robert Wadlow. He was the tallest person ever. He was 2.72 metres tall!
Life was hard for Robert. When he died at age twenty-two. he was still growing!
Today, the tallest person alive is Bao Xishun. He is 2.47 metres tall!
Bao is a herdsman from Inner Mongolia, China. He is very famous all around the world. But Bao Xishun is very
shy and leads a simple life.
His friends call him Xi Shun or "The Big Guy”.
It’s easy to see why!
大家伙
你是否曾被人说过你太矮或太高?
好吧，别担心，与1918年出生在美国的一个人相比，每个人都很矮。
他的名字叫罗伯特·瓦德罗，他是有史以来最高的人，他有2.72米高!
罗伯特的生活很艰难，当他22岁去世时，他还在长!
今天，世界上最高的人是鲍喜顺，他身高2.47米!
鲍是一个来自中国内蒙古的牧民，他在全世界都很有名。但鲍喜顺很害羞，过着简单的生活。
他的朋友们叫他喜顺或“大个子”。
为什么这么叫的原因很显而易见!
