description: "Charles Byrne, or \"The Irish Giant\", was a man regarded as a curiosity or freak in London in the 1780s for\nhis large stature. Byrne's exact height is of some conjecture. Some accounts refer to him as being 8 ft 2 in (2.49 m) to 8 ft 4 in (2.54 m) tall, but skeletal evidence places him at just over 7 ft 7 in (2.31 m)."
