Meet Giant George

"Giant George," the 7ft-long blue great dane who could be the world's tallest dog. Standing at nearly 43 inches tall from paw to shoulder and weighing a staggering 245 lbs. - could this be the world's new tallest dog?

The four-year-old blue great dane, weighs a staggering 245lbs and measures almost 43ins at the shoulder. The gentle giant, who measures 7ft 3ins from nose to tail, could be a prime contender to take the title from the former record holder, Gibson, a harlequin Great Dane who passed away from cancer last August.
Now George's owners, David and Christine Nasser, are awaiting confirmation from Guinness World Records to see if he has achieved the lofty heights. "He's 42.625 inches at the shoulder," said David. "He's very very unique." According to David, George consumes 110 lbs. of food every month and sleeps alone in his own Queen Size Bed. Dave and Christine raised George from when he was 7 weeks old, but never expected him to grow so big.

With size comes problems: The giant great dane barely fits in the back of his owner's SUV! The couple eventually had to move their aptly named dog out of their king sized bed, when he grew too large for the three of them to share. Dr. William Wallace of the Buena Pet Clinic in Tucson, who witnessed the documentation necessary for the Guinness record, said: "In my 45 years of experience working with giant breed dogs, without question, George is the tallest dog I have ever seen." David is currently rushing to get that necessary documentation into Guinness as other dog owners are already coming forth claiming the record.
As they wait for the results to come through, George is busy occupying himself with his new found stardom and even has his own Facebook fan page and Twitter account for his adorning fans. It appears as though the sky's the limit for this mammoth hound.

30 Giant Figures Seen From Google Earth
Once upon a time, in the far, far away land of Techgeeks lived two university pals named Larry Page and Sergey Brin. They spent long hours dreaming of a company that one day would be the biggest search engine in the world, offering mere mortals the opportunity to traverse the great plains of the planet without moving their lazy asses.
Information would be available at the touch of a square key and people could search for the most bizarre, beautiful, weird and wonderful images relayed by satellites dotted around the globe. This would make for a very happy life.
