Huda Shehata Abdel-Gawad, the tallest woman in the world and the holder of 3 titles in the Guinness Book of Records, died on Saturday evening, after suffering from kidney failure.
Huda, who resides in Ezbet Sheikh Hassanein in the city of Al-Husseiniya in Sharkia Governorate in northern Egypt and is 27 years old, has 3 records: the largest hand of a living woman with a length of 24.3 centimeters in her left hand, and the largest foot of a living woman with a length of 33.1 centimeters in her foot The right, and the widest arms of a surviving woman are 236.3 centimeters.
For his part, Hoda’s older brother, Muhammad, who is 33 years old, got two records: the widest range of the arms of a living man with 250.3 centimeters, and the widest range of the hand of a living man with 31.3 centimeters from his left hand.
Hoda and her brother suffer from a defect in the pituitary gland, which has affected their growth and weight. This subjected Huda a lot to bullying because of her great height and the largeness of her hands and feet.
