I reckon DannyL is taller than that. My brother has (or had) a friend who is stupid tall, like he gets out of the car and you laugh. Maybe six foot eight or something. Then again I was reading about this new basketball prospect who is seven foot six, he can just put the ball in the basket without jumping.First thing's first - does anyone know any really really tall people?
I've often regretted that I'm not friends with a giant of a man. I do have some pretty tall friends - the tallest is around 6'4" I think.
A good friend of mine has recently become a minor celebrity in art circles. He's hung out with collectors and various celebrities, Elton John, Russian Oligarchs, Hollywood directors.
Another mate is very close to an Oscar winner. He went to the ceremony, freeloaded on an invite to Salma Hayek's Venice wedding, hung out with theron, harrison et al. He has some good stories.
Spill his beans
Anyone know any really really rich people?
Giants and aristocrats, that's what I'm interested in. Don't care if you know a rocket scientist, e.g.
Know? No. But I once spent a few hours, for work, with someone whose family is 'worth' £10 billion or so.
What were they like?
