Country – Scotland
Position – Striker
Paul Millar is a 25-year-old British Third division striker who plays for Elgin City FC. He is also a full time fireman who works at the RAF Kinloss base at Moray in the Highland areas of Scotland.
And he is 6ft 10in tall!
To give you an idea of how tall he is, let us tell you about what Elgin City FC had to do. While walking onto the pitch, Millar kept cracking his head against the entrance of the door. So, the club staff had to heighten the entrance to the door so that Millar could walk easily.
That is how exceptionally tall Millar is.
With 66 appearances and 15 goals for Elgin City so far, Millar is doing exceptionally good for a part-time football player.
#1 – Kristof van Hout
Country – Belgium
Position – Goalkeeper
The 26-year-old goalkeeper is officially the tallest goalkeeper on the planet, measuring up to a monstrous 6ft 10 inches. He began his career in Netherlands at Willem II, the former club of Jaap Stam before he moved to PSV.
During his three-year stay at Willem, Kristof didn’t make a single senior appearance and was loaded off to Belgium to play for K.V. Kortrijk. He then secured a move to Standard Liege, one of the most successful clubs in Belgium.
He didn’t make much of an impact at Standard Liege and was transferred back to K.V. Kortrijk in 2011 where he spent an entire season as their first choice Goalkeeper. As off 2012, he plays for K.R.C Genk.
At 6ft 10in, I bet he doesn’t even have to jump to catch the incoming corners.
