Rumeysa Gelgi from Turkey becomes the tallest living woman in the world with a height of 215.16cm (7ft 0.7in).
Ms Gelgi, 24, broke the Guinness World Records for the second time. In 2014, at the age of 18, she was titled the tallest living female teenager by Guinness World Records.
Ms Gelgi’s condition is caused by a very rare disease. She suffers from Weaver Syndrome, which accelerates growth. The condition causes other abnormalities like skeletal maturation. Ms Gelgi mostly uses a wheelchair. But she can walk for short periods of time using a walker.
Weaver Syndrome is a rare genetic mutation. In a video released by Guinness World Records, Ms Gelgi said that she was the first case of the disease in Turkey as far as she knew.
“I was born with some serious physical diseases, such as scoliosis. And also I am a physically disabled person, who is mostly wheelchair-bound,” she said.”
Ms Gelgi confessed that she was bullied during her childhood but she had received much support from her family, adding that though some people got intrigued by her, others were kind to her.
Guinness World Records shared the post by quoting her in the caption, “Being different is not that bad. It can make you achieve things you never imagined before.”

A brown bear wandered into a hotel in Tibet and forced its way into a locked room with two guests inside.
Security camera footage from the hotel in Nagqu shows the bear wander down a hallway inside the building on Saturday and force its way through a door into an occupied room.
The guests in the room said they stared at the bear for a few seconds before it left the room on its own.
The hotel owner used a flashlight and other tools to scare the bear and chase it out of the building.The door has since been repaired and the hotel said it is adding additional security measures to keep bears out.
