The Eight Wonder of the world

Better known as 'The Eight Wonder of the World', Andre the Giant was 7.4 foot (225.55 cm) tall. He was not just the second tallest guy in the WWE history but was larger than life. One can remember back in his days no one was able to defeat him, if someone fights with him for more than 5-minutes then it's their most they could do.

His 15-year undefeated streak was ended by Hulk Hogan at the WrestleMania 3 in 1987. But boy he was special, no one was like him or ever will be.

Andre’s big size was due to a condition he was suffering from known as acromegaly, or giantism which actually turned to the key to his fame. His run in the WWE was an epic one, he gave some exciting matches for the fans with the above-mentioned one being the most famous.

Sadly, Andre passed away in 1993 and it was his death that initiated the WWE Hall Of Fame, he was the first ever inductee to be instated into the HOF and remains as a big name among others in the history of pro-wrestling.

The Eighth Wonder of the World often seemed like the largest man who ever lived in the history of the WWE, he was only the second.
