    I thought he turned this down. Didn't want to hurt his image.

    He was originally offered the role of a fighter. Similar to the role Kareem had with Bruce Lee. But declined, due to its violent nature or something.

    He must of had a small Cameo or something?

    It's Sun Ming Ming. They offered Yao the role but Yao declined.

    Don't think he's the tallest man in the world, there's a guy from Inner Mongolia who's officially about 1/4 inch taller, and supposedly some guy in Ukraine is over 8 feet tall but won't be measured by Guinness.

    He is certainly the tallest professional bball player though. Right now he has a contract to play in Mexico, and I think he has a tryout offer for the Harlem Globetrotters, which would be the most hilariously ridiculous thing ever.
