Rumeysa Gelgi, hailing from Turkey, holds the title of the tallest living woman, standing at an impressive height of 215.16cm (7ft 0.7in), as recognized by the Guinness World Records.

Overcoming challenges associated with Weaver syndrome, a rare condition causing accelerated growth and skeletal maturation, Gelgi embraces her uniqueness and utilizes her Guinness World Records achievements to raise awareness about rare conditions globally.

Despite facing bullying in her earlier years, Gelgi, now 27, has triumphed over adversity.

Supported by her proud family, she pursued education at home due to her unique circumstances and later achieved her dream of entering the tech industry as a self-taught front-end developer.

Passionate about advocacy and research, Gelgi’s positive outlook on life shines through her hobbies, including swimming, shopping, family meals, and exploring new places.

While the internet occasionally subjects Gelgi to negative comments, the Guinness World Record title has empowered her, reinforcing her pride in her individuality.

Beyond her tallest living woman title, Gelgi boasts additional Guinness World Records, including the longest finger, largest female hands, and longest back for a female.

She hopes that her story inspires acceptance and appreciation for differences, emphasizing the beauty found in unique qualities.

Gelgi attributes her resilient mindset to her parents, who early on framed her condition as a syndrome rather than an illness, fostering a sense of self-acceptance.

Despite initial sadness in response to bullying, Gelgi realized the issue lay with the bullies themselves.
