Feodor Machnow, the Russian giant, pictured next to his manager and (possibly) members of the staff at the London Hippodrome, eating breakfast during his time performing there. Allegedly measuring 9' 3" in height (though probably closer to 7' 10"), he ate huge quantities for every meal, consuming sixteen eggs and several loaves for breakfast each day.
