World’s Tallest Man Is Five-Foot-Eight

Lying about your height has reached new highs! Joel Solorzano Villeda was pulled over in Iowa after allegedly driving erratically, and police found that, according to his license, Villeda is the tallest man in the world. Police say that his Minnesota ID card listed Villeda as eight feet tall. A computer check of the ID, however, did not return any results. Villeda is actually five-foot-eight, according to officials. He was arrested on several charges, including operating a vehicle while intoxicated and providing a false ID. (The Smoking Gun)
