"World record shoe"
Shoemaker George Wessels with shoes size 66EPAShoemaker Georg Wessels, specialist in extremely large sizes, has probably made the biggest shoes in history. For a 17-year-old Venezuelan boy he made shoes in size 66.
The feet of the boy's 44 inches long.To our knowledge, the longest feet in the world. The boy has a growth disorder by a brain tumor.
In two years he went from shoe size 46 to size 66. Wessels has a set of shoes and sandals personally delivered to the boy's home in the Venezuelan Maracay.
Also in the Netherlands
Wessels is German but also speaks fluent Dutch. He has a case in Germany and Zutphen. The shoemaker's been a few times in the news because he attracts the fate of extremely tall people.
He made red sandals for a terminal Chinese giantess, who just before her death still could just walk on the first pair of shoes that they found really nice.
