The Human Tower

With a height of 7 feet and 6 inches, it’s impossible not to notice basketball player Manute Bol, who was once a part of the NBA—and the tallest. Because of his towering height, Bol has gone on to become the best blocker in the history of the sport.

Manute Bol is said to be one of the most unique NBA players in history. Aside from being the tallest, he didn’t offer much in terms of offensive end. He survived 12 seasons in the league despite scoring less than three points per game, which made him special. There is only one thing that should be given credit for his long and successful career in the NBA – he blocked everything.
