This is ridiculous to try to downgrade someone so tall. His back curves due to how long it is so if he stands up of course he's never going to be at full height. If his back was stretched and didn't curve he would probably be maybe 8'4. None of the people on celebheights understand this. Gravity makes us all a few inches shorter than what we could be.

there is no way this man is 8'1". Thats his corrected height. I will give hin 7.11.
That is more believable
I think after spending over a year on this site, it's become quite clear to me now that some people are simply on here to troll and downgrade celebrities for absolutely no rational reason whatsoever. Even if it goes as far as downgrading the tallest verified humans on the planet by reliable sources just to make themselves feel better. Pathetic.

Rob, you think the equivalence of comparing Brahim to Sultan, is like comparing Big Show to Andre??
Editor Rob
yes, because they are relatively close...although Brahim/Andre/Big Show I feel do stand a bit better than Sultan can manage.
It will be interesting to see how Brahim/Sultan look in 10 years time, god-willing they are both still alive. I fear Sultan will be confided to a wheelchair.
hey rob sultan needs to grab on to someone to stand even with walking stick so its not looking the best for sultan

He did visited in Finland few years back. He stayin actually pretty long. I did not ask to measure him. But he did walk under 240cm tall without problem. 200cm and 230cm long door he had to duck. Especially a 200cm tall. He also stand beside 263cm puppet of Daniel Cajanus. As we know Cajanus also had many heights. He was not even close to that. My opinion is he is around 236-239cm most of the day. Sultan stands normally similar. Until they are measured at morning in lying position or try to strech as tall as possible. Brahim never try to look taller what he is. He clouch a lot even i know he could look easily taller. He really is tall enough every position. I dont like corrected heights only real ones as i mentioned before.

Editor RobIt would be wise at giant heights like that to do some sort of physical routine to try to maintain good health as being such a tall height increases the joint and back issues.

Rob what do you think Chinese giant Zhang Juncai who is 7-11 and 1/3 (242cm) compare to him ?? And is Zhang the 4th tallest man in the world right now ??
Who's looks taller in your opinion ?? Zhang seems to have a higher shoulder without neck and Brahim is the opposite with long neck......do you think Brahim stands a full 8-1 with his normal standing height ?? I feel he's maybe a bit less in normal standing pose than his measured 8-1 right ?? What do you reckon ??

Editor RobI don't see why Zhang isn't almost 8ft...if he could actually stand tall. His body probably loses 3-4 inches in posture, so his actual measured height may well be that claimed figure.
He's no Leonid Stadnyk, that's for sure!

Editor RobSometimes the problem with comparing heads of very tall guys is they are farther away in photos than the shorter people, so their head size (in the photo) might be reduced a bit. 12 inch range is possible

Thanks to him you can also have a proof that Sabaunis never was 221 cm, or anything.
So you can't give him more than 216 cm

No offence to other giants. But i've watch a few of Brahim, i guess we could say he was one better looking Giantism dude compare to most we have seem. He doesn't look like he have acromegaly from his face structure and just a proportional 30cm long head for a 8 footer which i think is normal if anyone grow to this tall some would have bigger and longer head.

Rob, do you think it's possible that he typically walks about at the same height as big Sultan, or possibly even taller, seeing as he seems to have much less mobility problems and so probably has much better posture. Or possibly standing, although I think Sultan can maybe straighten up as much as Brahim when he's standing still.
