The tallest woman in recorded history was Zeng Jinlian, a Chinese woman who stood at a height of 8 feet 1.75 inches (2.48 meters). She was born in 1964 in Hunan Province, China, and suffered from gigantism, a condition caused by an overproduction of growth hormone.
Zeng Jinlian’s height became well-known, and she became a subject of fascination both in China and around the world. Unfortunately, her life was short; she passed away in 1982 at the age of 17. Despite her brief life, she remains a notable figure in medical history.
