Robert Wadlow is recorded as being the tallest person in the world, 8 feet 11 inches, but there is one person recorded in the Bible being 6 cubits and a span which is about 10½ feet tall. His name is Goliath of Gath, a Philistine. You can read about him in 1 Samuel chapter 17. Robert Pershing Wadlow was born, educated and buried in Alton, Illinois. His height of 8' 11" qualifies him as the tallest person in modern history, as recorded in the Guinness Book of Records. At the time of his death he weighed 490 pounds. By the time he was 8 years old his height had reached 6 feet.
