A 17-year-old girl from Turkey who stands at 7ft tall has been officially declared the world's tallest female teenager.
Rumeysa Gelgi who has a standing height of 213.6 cm (7ft 0.09 in), received the Guinness World Record award in a special presentation in her hometown of Safranbolu, Karabük.
Rumeysa is an 11th grade high school student and lives at home with her parents and older siblings, who are all ‘normal’ height.
Her height is caused by a condition called Weaver Syndrome, a rare genetic disorder that causes rapid growth.
