# Julius Koch

> Julius Koch, also known as Le Géant Constantin, was one of the tallest people ever. He suffered from gigantism, with an enlarged pituitary gland, testicular atrophy and lack of sexual development, and had trouble walking. His height, 245.9 cm was based on an estimate: after a series of falls, his legs were badly injured, and they were amputated after gangrene set in. His height had been advertised as 2.59 m, but this was presumed to be an exaggeration, as the skeleton measures 8 ft 1 in. Because he lived at the same time as John Rogan, he was probably never the tallest man in the world. At the age of 14 years, he reportedly already measured 1.94 m. Koch's femurs were the longest ever measured, at 76 cm (30 in), and his hands were reportedly 37.6 cm (14.8 in) long. His feet were claimed to have a length of 44 cm (17 in).
