A 7ft 1in man has candidly laid bare his daily struggles – revealing that strangers regularly stop him on the street and ask for photos.

Beau Brown, 30, from Atlanta, Georgia, has always been taller than average.

His late father, Duke, was 6-foot-9 and his mother, Lisa Milecki, is 6 feet tall, so the couple wasn’t surprised when their son grew past seven feet.

But being so tall means Beau has to make adjustments to fit into an average-sized world and can cause quite a stir when he’s in public.

Beau was forced to adapt to his tall stature from an early age.

Even when pWhile he played baseball as a child, his parents would have to bring his birth certificate, as people would question his age, thinking he was much older.

Now, as an adult, Beau’s home has nine-foot ceilings, he sleeps in a custom-made 9-foot-long bed, and drives a Ford F50 Lightening pickup truck.

And it continues to struggle with conventional proportions of buildings and regular-sized furniture.

Beau, who now works as a full-time content creator, shared: “I always knew I was tall, because I was bigger than everyone else.”

‘I was born weighing 13lb and people at the hospital said I was the biggest baby they had ever seen.

“When I turned 14 I was 6 feet tall and then in 10 years I grew 10 inches and there were some extreme growing pains.”

He added: “Travel is horrible, but it has many more advantages than disadvantages.”

‘Hotels are horrible, the showers and even the beds, but now I have a personalized bed at home.

Criticizing hotels, showers and beds, Beau candidly added: “Travel is horrible, but it has many more advantages than disadvantages.”

“I wouldn’t change being six feet one inch and I’m very used to it; the only thing that sucks is traveling.”

Beau said he is constantly stopped by strangers on the street, staring at him, asking to take pictures, and making comments about him.

This has always happened, even when he was a tall child, but it happens more often as an adult.

They always ask him the same questions: ‘How tall are you? You play basketball? Which car you drive?’

Beau’s wife Sara, who works as a recruiter, is 6 feet 1 inches tall.

The couple recently had their first baby, named Delilah, and the four-month-old baby is already in the 99th percentile with a length of 26 inches.

Beau concluded: ‘I’ve learned to bend over. I do it very naturally. It’s as easy as breathing.

There are only 2,800 people in the entire world who are more than two meters tall.
