but lost his top spot:

Ukrainian Leonid Stadnik has become the world's tallest man at 2.57 metres, a spokeswoman for the Guinness Book of Records confirmed Friday. The former veterinarian from a tiny village some 200 kilometres to the west of the Ukrainian capital Kiev knocked the former world- record holder, 2.36-metre Bao Xi Shun of China, off the top spot.

Answer 3

Tallest man - living


Xi Shun (China, b. 1951), measured 7 ft 8.95 in (2 m 36.1 cm) as a result of six measurements taken on January 15, 2005, at Chifeng City Hospital, Inner Mongolia, China.

Beating the previous holder Radhouane Charbib (Tunisia) by just 2 mm (0.07 in), Xi Shun claims that his height was normal for his age until he was 16. As a comparison, his father stood at 5 ft 10.8 in (1.8 m) and his mother was 5 ft 2.8 in (1.6 m) tall.

In his late teens, he experienced a growth spurt that, while not normal, was seemingly without any cause. Doctors who examined him in 2005 discovered no evidence of gigantism or acromegaly, and could not explain why he grew so tall so fast (it took him just seven years to reach his record height).

Following a career in the Army ? he was recruited for his basketball skills! ? he returned to Inner Mongolia and works as a herdsman. He also hires himself out for publicity stunts for a local restaurant and tailor.

He currently resides with his father and brother at Chifeng.

I don't know if this is right but I got it from wikepedia for you.
