Can Anyone Find a Bed for the World’s Largest Man?
With his traditional Mongolian wedding ceremony just around the corner, 56-year-old Bao Xishun, the world’s tallest man, has been busy looking for a bed that is large enough for his 2.36-m frame.
Bao and his bride, Xia Shujuan, registered their marriage on March 26. The ceremony is scheduled to take place in Chifeng, a city in the the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, on July 21.
“Everything is ready for my wedding, except for a bed capable of fitting me at our new home,” Bao said last week after shopping around local furniture markets. The media have urged people to offer solutions to the dilemma.

The Chinese can build amazing structures, create incredibly intricate works of art and make knockoff copies of just about anything on the planet but a bed for a tall guy is a dilemma?

Inner Mongolia is a autonomous province of China. Mongolia is a country above China.

Purchase latex foam. They can be made in various sizes. The Latex will not come as a mattress at that length, but it will be amazingly comfortable. Sheets will have to be made. I sleep on latex 8 inches thick.

@Iwan
You guys should all check your spelling and use the correct form of your/you’re before submitting. It doesn’t make much sense to burn someone about spelling and not take the time to use the correct words spelled correctly yourself.
