Death 26 may 1978 (at 63 years) at Los Angeles (USA)

Henry Hite (May 1, 1915 – May 26, 1978) born Henry Marion Mullens, was a giant who was well known in his day for making personal appearances promoting the Corn King brand (Wilson Certified Meats trade-name) as the "Corn King Giant", and for the occasional movie that would capitalize on his height. Although promoted as "the world's tallest man" at 8 ft 2 in, his actual height was 7 ft 6¾ in (2.31 m).

At age 18, he changed his name to 'Hite' and partnered with 'Lowe' (Roland Picaro), to form a Vaudeville act, later as "Lowe, Hite and Stanley" which included the midget Stanley Ross. Hite's stage career ended in 1962 following the death of Ross.
