The biggest Obama fan in the country is in the house.
President Obama wasn't kidding. He's talking about Igor, a real-life giant who is seven feet eight inches and still growing.
"I love this guy," said Obama.
.
When he was young, Igor had a brain tumor that caused him to grow uncontrollably. His incredible story is featured on Help! I'm Turning Into A Giant, a documentary airing on the TLC cable channel this Sunday.
Igor even wore a T-shirt to one of the president's town meetings in Minnesota that said "World's Biggest Obama Supporter."
He's a student and has to duck when he goes through the door to enter the classroom. He is head and shoulders above his fellow classmates
