Joelison Fernandes da Silva knew from the beginning he would grow up to be tall, yet never envisioned he would get this tall. Da Silva, 28, measures in at an astounding 7 feet 8 inches tall, making him the tallest man in Brazil.
Being harassed as an adolescent took a huge toll on da Silva’s self-esteem, and in the end he dropped out of school and dodged contact with individuals inside and out. Seven years earlier, da Silva had an operation to remove a benign growth on his pituitary organ. After the surgery, he stopped growing. Da Silva’s certainty expanded and he started to communicate with individuals more frequently.
One of the individuals he met ended up being the affection of his life. He recalls when he first saw Evem Medeiros, 21, and says, “the day I saw her, I think it was unexplainable adoration.”
Medeiros is just 5 foot tall, yet that didn’t stop their adoration association. They’re presently hitched, and looking forward to starting a family together.
