There may be two and a half feet between him and his future wife, but world’s tallest man Sultan Kosen is on cloud nine after meeting the woman of his dreams.The Turkish farmer – who at 8ft three ins, dwarfs his 5ft 8 ins fiancee – is set to marry Merve Dibo in a ceremony today.
Kosen has long been searching for a woman to share his life with, and had reportedly given up hope – until he met Ms Dibo.
He told an AA reporter: ‘Now I will have my own family and private life.
‘How unfortunate I could not find a suitable girl of my own size. My fiancee is over 1.75 meters tall, but I believe I’ve found the person for me.’
Kosen also holds the Guinness World Record for the size of his 27.5cm hands and feet, which are recorded 36.5 centimetres – a massive size 28.
His gigantic wedding suit and shoes will be custom made, and the giant, who has achieved near celebrity status, has invited a host of politicians to his nuptials in the southern Turkish city of Mardin.
Kosen said all he wants now is a car big enough for his size in which he can travel with his bride.
He is one of only ten people ever to top 8 feet and the first in a decade.
He became the world’s tallest man in August 2009, when he shot past China’s Bao Xishun at 7ft 9ins.
