abstract	Thomas Hasler (born 1851 near Gmund am Tegernsee, died 1876) became well known as the Tegernsee Giant. Hasler developed normal both physical and mental, until he was 9 years old and a kick of a horse hit him in the face. From that moment on he experienced an abnormal growth, which lead to him leaving school at 11 years old because with his size he could not fit in the schoolfurniture. Later in life he was expelled from games like ten pin bowling because of his impressive strength. Regularly, he would destroy the pins. After his skull had deformed more and more, Hasler withdrew from public life and stayed on his parents farm. He died young at a height of 7 feet 8.25 inches (235 cm) and a weight of 155 Kilograms. After his death, the "tallest Bayern of all times" doctors performed an autopsy on his body and his skeleton was prepared and put on display at Deutschen Medizinhistorischen Museum in Ingolstadt. Haslers mortal remnants became the subject of medical investigations again and again. What we can be reasonably certain of is that because of his bones growing together Thomas Hasler was deaf in his right ear and his eyesight was impaired and blind in his left eye. Also, he had a reduced or no longer existing sense of smell because of the narrowing of the nasal passage.
