2. Elisany Da Cruz Silva
Meet Elisany da Cruz Silva, the world’s tallest teenage girl. She’s 6′ 8″ (203.2 cm) tall and lives in Brazil. Interestingly enough, a tumor on her pituitary gland affected her height, since the pituitary gland regulates growth. When she was younger, Elisany was too tall to ride the school bus. She also suffered from teasing from her classmates, something that unfortunately happens often when we are young. Elisany has a boyfriend, who’s 1′ 4″ shorter than her. They’re one of the cutest couples we’ve seen. Her boyfriend, Francinaldo da Silva Carvalho, 22, said “I feel free and relaxed as a person and don’t care what people say” (via Viola).
