Yao Ming Taller Than Jessica Alba, But Shorter Than Sun Mingming

There had been whispers that Sun Mingming, the 7-foot-9 Chinese basketball player was taller than Yao Ming, the 7-foot-6 Chinese basketball player. Turns out Kaka got the two tall men together way back in July 2013 to put that theory to the test. The results may shock you. Don’t expect this image to show up in the next slideshow of all the times Yao Ming has been taller than someone. Unless we crop out Sun Mingming. Unfortunately, that technology is years away.

This weekend, Yao met Jessica Alba who took a picture while pointing at the former Rockets’ center. The faces of everyone involved say it all. This is the life of “Yeo.”
