Basketball giant Tacko Fall standing next to reporter Tracy Wolfson is amazing

Tacko Fall is one big human: 7'6" (228cm) to be exact.

So when the University of Central Florida centre posed for a picture alongside CBS reporter Tracy Wolfson (5'2", 157cm) during the NCAA March Madness basketball tournament, they sent social media into meltdown.

That's a difference of 71cm; head, shoulders and chest, with Wolfson's head somewhere around Fall's stomach.

"I couldn't help but laugh standing next to him, all of me at 5'2"," Wolfson said in the video below, noting that he also dwarfed former NBA star and CBS analyst Grant Hill (6'8", 203cm) during the same photo shoot.

"He's a size 22 shoe, I'm a size six. Tacko told me he sleeps with two beds connected, it is a real struggle to buy clothes and it is extremely difficult to shower."

Hill said: "I was feeling a little insecure after seeing that video. He's so big!"

Fall's stature was so impressive that sports reporter Darren Rovell pondered if the college star had topped the reigning king of making normal people look tiny: China's former Houston Rockets centre Yao Ming, who at 228cm is exactly the same height as Fall.

Judge for yourself. We'll start with LeBron James (203cm), then get really ridiculous.
