The Guinness Book of World Records has given this title to Rumesa Gelgi, the tallest woman in the world. But while on one hand this achievement is his identity, on the other hand he has daily troubles in his personal life.
Difficulties in traveling by plane
Recently, Guinness Book of World Records shared a video on its Instagram page, in which Rumesa was seen traveling with Turkish Airlines. The video showed how she traveled lying on a stretcher.
Reason for traveling on a stretcher
Gelgi told that he has a disease called scoliosis, in which the spine gets abnormally bent. Along with this, there are 2 long rods and 30 screws in his spine, which prevent him from bending or twisting. He said that lying on a stretcher is the safest way for me to travel in a flight.
