World's tallest man struggles to fit in

PODOLYANTSI, Ukraine (AP) -- Leonid Stadnik's phenomenal height has forced him to quit a job he loved, to stoop as he moves around his house and to spend most of his time in his tiny home village because he cannot fit in a car or bus.

This guy quit his job to work in the garden, how will he pay his bills?
I imagine he could find work in either the circus or adult film industry.

He gave up his veterinary practice because it was impossible to continue given his health conditions. He works, with the help of a friend, a small farm in the country. Your comments about circus and adult film industry just show your lack of compassion and respect. Shame!

Fortunately, the man's wife was not listed as one of the items to be pilferred, and it's frightening to think about how many crazies there are out in the world and how something like a craigslist add can send them swarming on your home like a legion of crazed Zulu warriors. Reading this makes me think that every homestead needs a damn Gatlin Gun.

I believe that the media is a major factor to what is crippling our world. And it's the people who thrive on the misfortunes of others, those that love this sort of news and whatever makes their pitiful lives seem more appealing. It explains why you never read any good news, only hear about the bad! Shame on the media! Reminds me of the 'holier-than-thou' Jerry Springer fans and all those who try to keep up with the Joneses! If this comment upsets you, then maybe you should re-evaluate your pitiful life, get off the foodstamps and pay more attention to your obese children. Have a nice day:)

Oh yes there is. Many of us have compassion for this fellow. But, sadly, there are those among us who have none...and probably get none when needed.
