Worlds tallest girl and her boyfriend

Worlds tallest girl and her boyfriend
The world’s tallest teenage girl and her boyfriend, walking on a Brazilian beach. The couple has 1ft 4in (41 centimeters) height difference. 17 year-old Elisany da Cruz Silva, 6ft 8in (203.2 cm) tall, lives in Salinopolis, Brazil, has a form of gigantism caused by tumor on her pituitary gland, which regulates growth. Doctors have since removed the tumor. Elisany was too tall to ride the school bus and she left school because of teasing from classmates. Her boyfriend Francinaldo da Silva Carvalho, 22, construction worker, says his friends ask things about how he hugs her, but he tells them there is a way of doing everything. ‘I feel free and relaxed as a person and don’t care what people say.’

Elisany da Cruz Silva, 17, measures an unbelievable 6ft 8in tall and has to bend down to plant a kiss on her 4ft 4in lover Francinaldo da Silva Carvalho, 22

‘The only thing that really affects us is when we hang out holding hands – it seems like he is my little brother or son.
She added: ‘It’s hard when I’m inside home. I get distracted and hit the wood in the ceiling with my head.

Elisany lives in a small house with her sisters and mother Ana Maria Silva and step-father Luiz Jorge.

Her mother said: ‘I want her be like the other girls because I know she feels weird and sometimes wants to be like them.’
