10 Tallest Wrestlers Ever (And How Giant They Really Were)

4. Kurt Zehe - 7'2''

Remaining on the globetrotting theme, at no. 4 is the big German Kurt Zehe. Given that he was born over a century ago, there is very little info on the life and times of Kurt Zehe. He was said to have been brought to the UK after the war where he fought under the name Gargantua, facing former boxer Jack Doyle in what turned out to be a €huge anti climax€.

Rare footage of Gargantua can be found above, complete with unnecessarily dramatic soundtrack, where it is claimed that he was billed at 8€'4"€. Such a figure would in fact have made Zehe the fifth tallest human being in history, and thus for the purposes of this article we'll go with some more realistic figures. In reality, Zehe is the third wrestler man to join the evermore multicultural 7€'2"€ club.
