Meet Giant George

"Giant George" and owner Dave Nasser share a couch together

"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?

Pictured here along with Mr. Nasser in the parks of Tuscon, Arizona is George, a four-year-old blue great dane, who looks more like a miniature horse than a 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.

Paws for thought: George's giant feet dwarf his owner Dave Nassar's hand.

(Snopes confirmation here - I had to check...)

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.

The ghostly image of a lady appears in a field in Ohio. Zooming in closer to the image reveals the eyes may be trees that the farmer has cut around and the mouth is just a naturally darker patch of grass. Ah, the wonders of nature.





Calm down boys! Yes, it’s real, and not only can you touch it, if you book a trip to Sicily (which seems to have a few strange sights for a little island) you can walk and lie all over this babe, too. That should keep some people happy. They’d be desperate, but happy.





Finally, proof that giants did exist, and that they’re none too clever by leaving fingerprints behind. This tell-tale sign can be found in Hove Park, near Brighton and Hove in the UK. It measures 38 metres around. Imagine the size of the hand!





This swastika-shaped building on a US Navy base in California was never designed to entice as much speculation as it has. Some people think the architect designed the building purely to maximize light in the space given as well as to allow for greenspaces around the site. Others think the building should be amended so that it no longer looks like a symbol associated with so much bad history.

Continue to the rest..
