Mr Kosen's height is a result of a condition known as pituitary gigantism. He became the world's tallest man in 2009 and remains one of the only 10 people in history to reach 8 feet in height or more.

Meanwhile, Amge won the record after her 18th birthday in 2011. She currently works as an actress, in addition to co-hosting a show called ‘Lo Show Dei Record’, according to the Guinness World Records official website.
