Boban Marjanovic Is the Tallest Human on Earth

Boban Marjanovic Is the Tallest Human on Earth

You’re probably aware by now that Los Angeles Clippers center Boban Marjanovic is tall. At 7-foot-3, the Serbian big man looms over everyone on the basketball court, making some of his fellow 7-footers look like what cars do out of an airplane window.

To truly understand the full breadth of Marjanovic’s height, taking into account his pterodactyl-like wingspan, his run in with Anthony Davis last night illustrates it perfectly. While Marjanovic was being guarded in the post by Davis, a foul was called. Davis kept swiping at the basketball after the whistle, so Marjanovic held the ball above his head, in the same way a dog owner might hold a treat away from his or her pet.

That play led to this picture, where Davis, who stands 7-feet tall himself, looks like a child. It is as surreal an undoctored photo as you’ll ever see.

Boban Marjanovic: a real life giant.
