I’m a real-life giant — strangers stare, ask for pics and traveling is ‘horrible’
He’s telling tall tales.
A 7-foot, 1-inch millennial says lookie-loos stop him on the street and beg for photos.
They also ask the same three questions: “How tall are you? Do you play basketball? What car do you drive?”
But Beau Brown, 30, has grown accustomed to the stares and remarks about his height. The Atlanta-based content creator, who enjoys a TikTok following of 4.7 million, has always been taller than average.
When playing baseball as a child, Brown’s parents had to bring his birth certificate to games to settle disputes about his age.
“I was born 13 pounds, and the people in the hospital said I was the biggest baby they’d ever seen,” Brown recalled to SWNS. “Once I hit 14 years old, I was 6 feet, and then in 10 years, I grew 10 inches and there were some extreme growing pains.”
Being so tall means he has to make adjustments to fit in with us plebeians.
“Traveling is horrible, but it has a lot more pros to it than cons,” he sighed. “Hotels are horrible, showers and even beds are, but I now have a custom bed at home.”
Brown’s house boasts 9-foot ceilings and a 9-foot-long bed. He also drives a Ford F-150 Lightning full-size pickup truck.
“I would not change being 7 feet, 1 inch, and I’m super used to it,” he shared.
His late dad, Duke, reached 6 feet, 9 inches, while his mom, Lisa Milecki, is 6 feet tall.
Brown’s wife, Sara, is a recruiter who stands 6 feet, 1 inch tall.
The couple had their first baby, Delilah, four months ago.
She already measures 26 inches long — landing her in the 99th percentile.
There are only 2,800 people worldwide taller than 7 feet, SWNS reports.
