Igor Vovkovinskiy

A month ago, I came across the story of Igor Vovkovinskiy, the tallest man in the US, and his quest to rid himself of constant pain by finding someone to make him a pair of shoes that actually fit.  If you missed that one, read it here.  This morning, I discovered a story from the Huffington Post about his continuing journey.

I've always considered myself to be pretty tall.  At 6-feet-3-inches, I'm taller than most people I come in contact with.  It's been that way for as long as I can remember.  It's also lead to more head bumps than I can count!  But every so often, someone comes along that makes me look short.  If I ever stood next to Igor Vovkovinskiy, I would feel like a toddler.
