Bao Xishun
Bao Xishun (also known as Xi Shun; born 1951) is a herdsman from Inner Mongolia, China, who was recognized by ''Guinness World Records'' as one of the world's tallest living men. ''Guinness World Records'' had returned the title of world’s tallest man to him after Ukrainian Leonid Stadnyk took over the title briefly. After Stadnyk refused to be measured under new guidelines, which required him to be independently measured by ''Guinness World Records''’s adjudicators, the title was returned to Xishun.
On September 17, 2009, Turkey's Sultan Kösen overtook Bao Xishun as the tallest living man in the world, when he was measured by Guinness World Records, standing tall.
