Biography[]
Siah Khan was born in 1913 in the village of Lapui, in the Zarghan district of Fars province. He grew normally until the age of six, but after than, he grew rapidly. His family migrated to Shiraz due to Siah Khan's poverty and physical problems, and earned money by displaying their large and unusual child in the streets. At the end of September 1920, he was rented for some time by a person named Khoshorkhan for 6,000 Tomans to be exhibited in Tehran. Dr. Ghorban, the founder of the Shiraz Medical School, found him in 1931 and provided him with financial and medical support. When he was taken to the hospital, Siah Khan was hospitalized for the rest of his life and eventually died of pneumonia and sepsis in 1938. But his real birth and death date are said to be 1912-1940. And His skeletal remains are now on public display in a glass case at Shiraz’s Medical School. According to them, his skeleton measures 8 ft 6 in (259cm), which may be possible.
Height[]
Siah Khan often claimed 10 ft 6 (320 cm) and 11 ft 10 (361 cm) which if true would have made him easily the tallest person to ever live even dwarfing Robert Wadlows height of 8 ft 11.09 (272 cm) but Siah Khan was later measured in 1933 by his doctors at 7 ft 2.6 (220 cm) and may have been later grew to 8 ft 6 in making him the most exaggerated giant ever and the tallest Persian ever. His arms measured 3 ft 10.06 in (117 cm) long and his legs measured 4 ft 1.25 in (125 cm) long and his skull weighed 0.89 st (5.7 kg) and couldn't stand due his head being too heavy for him. His exact height measurements were confirmed to be exactly 8 ft 6.15 in (259.46 cm)
