Long story short, tallest women died at age 53(duh), her name is sandy allen, she was 7 feet and 7 inches, suffered from a recurring blood infection, along with diabetes, breathing troubles and kidney failure. it's a shame too because i wanted to meet her D=. it would've been cool if she was a basketball player lol.

Giant people don't have enough heart power to live very long. I am surprised she made it past 40.

I saw in a documentary a while back that there is a tumor in a certain part of the brain which won't allow you to stop growing.

It's sad and scary at the same time.

Fifty-three isn't that old at all either.

53 is so young... That is pretty saddening when you think about how short of a life that is. And to think some of you are saying things like she looks like a clown and such. I think those of you who were making fun of her should be ashamed of yourselves.

I agree. What if you would look like "a clown". Most of you probably do look like them but are trying to make yourselves feel better by picking on other people. Good job guys.

Also 53 is young but for this size it's incredibly old. Most people that are that freakishly huge only get about 20-30 years old :/
