Mike Lanier is legally classified as a 'Giant'. The Metro Detroit man measures in at a staggering 7 feet, 7 inches tall, and tells WDIV he's the tallest man in Michigan.

Lanier and his twin brother James are in the Guinness Book of World Records as the World's Tallest Twins.

He says it's not easy, being in his (Size 17) shoes.

"As soon as new people see me it's just always a circus," Lanier said. "Flying is very expensive. I can only fit in the first class. Dating is very frustrating because I have so many people coming up to me I have no idea if the girl is interested in me or if she's just curious about my height."
