krading Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 Got a flyer under the door today inviting everyone to come and be blessed by the tallest monk in Thailand. Promoted as being 6 sok 9 inches tall which would make him anywhere between 9 foot 9 inches and 12 foot 9 inches tall depending on which definition of a sok you use. My dict gives a sok as anything between 18 to 24 inches. In metric that makes him between 3 mts and 3.88 mts. Much taller than the current world record holder Sultan Kosen at a mere 2.46 mts. I wonder if they will let me measure him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garyh Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 Maybe same one I saw in Tesco car park at Hang Dong in August, it was a stinking hot day and he had to sit in the back of the pick as he would not fit inside even though there was a spare seat.
