Imagine a man, the dwarf is classified as giant before… You didn’t read it wrong. We are talking about a single person, not different people! Both the dwarf and giant who fits the giant in his life from this world.
Rainer, who was considered as a dwarf at a young age and was not worthy of military service, and left a story that was still not found in the 21st century in the history of the world; It has a 52 -year -old life travel that makes the surprise and sadness in the middle. We wanted to include you on this trip and introduce Rainer’s unique life story.
Adam Rainer’s story; It begins with the rejection of the request to participate in World War I.
Adam Rainer, who opened his eyes to life in Graz, which was known to be one of the states of Austria, which was located in the end of the Austro-Hungarian Empire in 1899; It begins with the rejection of the request to participate in World War I.
Although Rainer is the son of a family with average paint, he is quite short -length compared to his age. Since it is below the end of 1.47 length, it not only does not only participate in the war; One -to -one time is also subjected to the “dwarf” classification.
Rainer, who once again tried his fortune when he was 20 years old, is unfortunately frustrated once again with a length of 1.42 and is rejected by the army.
Sudden growth begins, Rainer’s life is changing.
Although Rainer is short enough to be accepted as a dwarf, the medical resources of those years draw attention to a valuable detail: Rainer’s hands and feet are surprisingly large compared to the other people in his length. It is known that Rainer’s foot number is 43, which is 20 years old and 1.42 long!
The age of 21, where growth is completed in many individuals, is a turning point for the Rainer. Rainer, who started to grow and develop rapidly by the age of 21, has a 2.18 paint when he is 32 years old. It does not end that, the foot number continues to grow simultaneously and reaches the number 53!
Rainer has a “acromegaly” problem.
Rainer, which was once classified as a dwarf, begins to hunch down because of its long length. Rainer, in this way, is able to attract the attention of valuable names from the medical world.
In 1930-1931, Doctor A. Mandl and F. Windholz closely examine Rainer and reveal the details of his sudden and disproportionate growth. Both doctors believe that Rainer is the problem of “acromegali (giant)”.
Unfortunately, the problem remains unresolved.
When it is noticed that a tumor who pressure on the pituitary gland behind the giant issue of giantization, the man is taken to the Rainer surgery. Although physicians who take the tumor with a successful surgery think that Rainer’s growth will stop after this surgery, things do not progress as thought.
Rainer’s growth doesn’t stop, it’s just slowing down. On the other hand, Rainer’s appearance is becoming increasingly strange because of the growth of the tumor.
Despite the surgery, Rainer’s situation continues to deteriorate.
Rainer, which was measured one year after the surgery, is found to have no longer length in this year; However, this measurement cannot prevent Rainer’s misfortunes after a short time.
Although it is left in length, it is found that Rainer’s spine began to be curved, which shows that the growth insists on continuing. Rainer, whose spine continues to be curved with growth, becomes unable to stand on its own after a while.
Rainer dies at the age of 52.
As a result of all these events, Rainer begins to lose his health. First, Rainer, who was blind, quickly becomes deaf. Since the spine curvature causes an obvious hunchback, it loses its ability to stand completely and becomes bedridden.
Rainer is 52 years old, with a length of 2.34, as the longest person in his country. Since Rainer, it is known that there is no other person who has been classified as both dwarf and giant.
