This 16-year-old boy from Penang went viral virtually overnight for his extremely unusual height.
The teenage boy from Teluk Bahang, Penang is said to be exactly 198 centimetres in height and will continue to grow even taller before he turns 21. However, it was not mentioned exactly how much taller he’ll grow but we can assume that his family will need to move to a new house with taller ceilings.
Speaking of family, his parents said that they first noticed that their son had an unusual height at age 5 compared to his friends. It was only after the couple brought him in for a medical checkup last year did they discover that he is actually suffering from Marfan Syndrome . While being tall has its advantages, it is understood that Haziq has his fair share of obstacles that an average Joe wouldn’t concern himself with. In this teenager’s case, he often has difficulty getting into vehicles and public transportation. While at home, his family usually avoid using the ceiling fans for fear that he might injure himself by accident.
the mother said. Due to his rare condition, the secondary school student has suffered minor heart issues and gets tired easily. For your information, Haziq is not alone in being the tallest in the country.
