Giant North Korean Soldier of the Day

Giant North Korean Soldier of the Day

Giant North Korean Soldier of the Day: A soldier who appears to be about 8 feet tall was spotted in the back row of mourners at North Korean leader Kim Jong Il’s funeral procession in Pyongyang.

Although it’s easy to assume the giant soldier has simply been Photoshopped in, especially after the Korean Central News Agency altered other photos from the funeral, there’s a possibility that the image is genuine.

Photos taken from 4 different angles all show the same tall soldier, and the Internet even has a theory as to who he might be: 7’8″ North Korean basketball star Ri Myung Hun.

At one time, Ri was the tallest man in the world. He considered playing in the NBA during the 1990s, but remained in North Korea

Take a look at some more photos after the jump, and decide for yourself whether this looks ‘shopped.
