Man it must be hard on the neck to be this tall.

[@C--A]

His height is natural and neck is fine, his height isn't a growth disease! His parents are 6ft6 & 6ft3. His flexibility and agility for a 7ft5 guy is outstanding! Reminds me of legend Kareem Abdul-Jabbar who was another tall basketball player with great athleticism!
