World's Tallest Man Poses with Former Tall Person Enes Kanter

You should've seen Enes Kanter in his prime. He was a tall, tall man. Like a Swiss-Turkish beanstalk, really.

Ah, those were the days...days that are gone now.

The 6'11" Oklahoma City Thunder center became a short person Thursday afternoon thanks to a literal giant who wandered into his vicinity and shrank him down to size.

Kanter tweeted out a picture of himself with Sultan Kosen, an 8'3" Turkish man recognized by the Guinness Book of World Records as the tallest living male on the planet.

WSB-TV Atlanta's Mike Petchenik also caught a picture of the two.

They appeared to be hanging out in a crowd of what looks like Smurfs or some other breed of small humanoid:

I can only imagine their conversation.

"So...how long you been tall?"

"A while. How 'bout you?"

"Same."

"It's fun, right?"

"Yeah, except for like...doors...and basically everything."

"Yeah...walking through doors is a whole thing..."

"Yeah..."

Also, props to Kanter.

He seems to be struggling manfully to avoid making a "How's the weather up there?" joke. That had to be hard.

Dan is on Twitter. He wishes he were a little bit taller, but this is just too much.
