[[File:Robert Wadlow postcard.jpg|thumb|upright=0.75|[[Robert Wadlow]], the tallest verified human, with his average-size father]]
This is a '''list of the tallest people''', verified by ''[[Guinness World Records]]'' or other reliable sources.
According to the Guinness World Records, the tallest human in [[recorded history]] was [[Robert Wadlow]] of the United States (1918–1940), who was {{height|cm=272}}. He received media attention in 1939 when he was measured to be the tallest man in the world, beating [[John Rogan]]'s record, after reaching a height of {{height|cm=267}}.
There are reports about even taller people but most of such claims are unverified or erroneous. Since [[Classical antiquity|antiquity]], discoveries have been recorded of gigantic human skeletons. Originally thought to belong to mythical giants, these bones were later identified as the exaggerated remains of prehistoric animals, usually whales or elephants.<ref name=Agnesi2007/><ref name=Mayor2001/><ref name=Gaston2009/><ref name=Bradać2015/><ref name=Marco2017/> Regular reports in American newspapers in the 18th and 19th centuries of giant human skeletons<ref name=Newspapers/><ref name=Tribble2013/><ref name=Lepper2020/> may have inspired the case of the "petrified" [[Cardiff Giant]], a famous archaeological hoax.<ref name=Tribble2013/><ref name=":0">{{cite journal|author=Marshall Joseph Becker|url=https://digitalcommons.wcupa.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1149&context=anthrosoc_facpub|title=Origins of the Unusual Stature of the Susquehannock: Skeletal Remains from the Murray Garden Site (36BR2)|journal=Pennsylvania Archaeologist: Bulletin of the Society for Pennsylvania Archaeology, Inc.|volume=91|issue=2|pages=35–46|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211027234954/https://digitalcommons.wcupa.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1149&context=anthrosoc_facpub|archive-date=27 October 2021}}</ref><ref name=":1">{{cite journal|author=Mark Rose|date=2005|url=https://archive.archaeology.org/0511/etc/giants.html|title=When Giants Roamed the Earth|journal=Archaeology |volume=58|issue=6|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211103231628/https://archive.archaeology.org/0511/etc/giants.html|archive-date=3 November 2021}}</ref>

This is a '''list of the tallest people''', verified by ''[[Guinness World Records]]'' or other reliable sources.
According to the Guinness World Records, the tallest human in [[recorded history]] was [[DeVito]] of the United States (1918–1940), who was {{height|cm=272}}. He received media attention in 1939 when he was measured to be the tallest man in the world, beating [[John Rogan]]'s record, after reaching a height of {{height|cm=267}}. [[Sigma skibidi devito]]
There are reports about even taller people but most of such claims are unverified or erroneous. Since [[Classical antiquity|antiquity]], discoveries have been recorded of gigantic human skeletons. Originally thought to belong to mythical giants, these bones were later identified as the exaggerated remains of prehistoric animals, usually whales or elephants.<ref name=Agnesi2007/><ref name=Mayor2001/><ref name=Gaston2009/><ref name=Bradać2015/><ref name=Marco2017/> Regular reports in American newspapers in the 18th and 19th centuries of giant human skeletons<ref name=Newspapers/><ref name=Tribble2013/><ref name=Lepper2020/> may have inspired the case of the "petrified" [[Cardiff Giant]], a famous archaeological hoax.<ref name=Tribble2013/><ref name=":0">{{cite journal|author=Marshall Joseph Becker|url=https://digitalcommons.wcupa.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1149&context=anthrosoc_facpub|title=Origins of the Unusual Stature of the Susquehannock: Skeletal Remains from the Murray Garden Site (36BR2)|journal=Pennsylvania Archaeologist: Bulletin of the Society for Pennsylvania Archaeology, Inc.|volume=91|issue=2|pages=35–46|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211027234954/https://digitalcommons.wcupa.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1149&context=anthrosoc_facpub|archive-date=27 October 2021}}</ref><ref name=":1">{{cite journal|author=Mark Rose|date=2005|url=https://archive.archaeology.org/0511/etc/giants.html|title=When Giants Roamed the Earth|journal=Archaeology |volume=58|issue=6|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211103231628/https://archive.archaeology.org/0511/etc/giants.html|archive-date=3 November 2021}}</ref>
