Months before his death, he was measured at a height of 8' 11.1". His [extraordinary] growth began in infancy and was caused by an overactive pituitary gland. Those who knew him [personally] [remembered] him fondly, although he was seen as a curious spectacle by the masses. Sadly, he died of an infection caused by a faulty brace on his left foot. He was 22 years-old. He was also known as the "Alton Giant" and the "Giant of Illinois. " he is also thought of as a "gentle giant."
