@antipodean The taller player is Olivier Rioux. Canadian, 20 years old, 7'9in.
and he might end up looking up at this guy, who is 7'6 at 14 years old!

The guy in the headband is 6'8" in old money
That's basically Whitelock or Rettalick. As the short guy.
Mind-boggling.

It's a shame Robert Wadlow never played Basketball.
Skip to 1.54 for a shot of how number 32 would look next to him.

Not really. The guy was basically a cripple at 15

there are some big humans in this world
Olivier Richters is enormous without any signs of gigantism like other monsters that height. Bloody impressive having that much proportional muscle mass too.
As for the Mountain as far as I know he still holds the world deadlift record at 510kg.
Not sure why Andre the Giants attempt didn't count ?
@taniwharugby said in Sports Memes:
@MN5 I think if you tipped that weight over, the underside would say made by ACME.
He was never 7 foot 4 either.

Why are the posts on the SI that way, would work much better if they were lined up with the NI ones. Did the creator run out of free prompts before being able to finish it?

@taniwharugby where can I find context if I'm not up on NZ news?

Think of Rugby.....
Take away a couple of players from each team, that's the only clue you're going to get.

I think it's the reverse actually. Kick westwards from Dunners and let the earth's rotational speed and the wind blow it back over King Country/Coromandel, with fingers crossed that it is an exceptional day in Wellington so it doesn't suck like it normally does.

Either way there is no evidence what with the cloak of invisibility and all.
