← Named Giants · Modern documented record · Glossary: Named giants
The tallest recorded non-pathological giant: no pituitary or growth-hormone disorder was ever identified, and he was proportionally built. Reputed to have lifted a ship's anchor of over 2,700 lb. A museum at St Ann's, Nova Scotia holds his effects.
People of giant stature measured under modern conditions, with a named cause where one is known. This is the only class on the page where the height itself is verified.
Record
Stature is recorded as the source states it, in that source’s own units. It is not a verified measurement unless this record sits in the Modern documented record class.
