Rico Göde (207 cm), former pivot of Füchse Berlin (2008-2010, 1. Bundesliga, germany)

Göde I think can be still active player. I thought that he's 2,04m. But couple of sources says 2,07m so I believe. He'll be added.

I'm a little shocked by parametres and surprised that I never heard about him before. He'll be added of course soon. Thanks a lot for your help.

THE TALLES EVER!!!

Valerij Savko


from the Ukraine. Played for TUS N-Lübbecke in the 1. German Bundesliga in season 1997/98. 80 times nationalplayer for the USSR, 3 times world champion!

224 cm, 150 kg, shoe size 58 (europe)

some amazing photos:

Not sure how tall he was exactly(again some sources tell 2,20m), but I found that he was told to be the tallest ever handballer by Handball-Magazine(when Vranjes is told to be the smallest which I'm not sure). Very strange that his career in Germany started in lower divisions. His clashes against guys with parametres looking like 1,80m/75kg are nice pictures. If he didn't play in Bundesliga, I think there would be no word about him anywere. He'll be added and take the all time lead away from Dragunski(who replaced him in Lübbecke by the way).

I noticed that Kamil Syprzak from Wisła Płock is still missing on the list, I don't know why, so he'll be added soon.
Also found that in the past in Bundesliga played Dieter Bartke - goalkeeper who was about 2,16m giant. I'll also add him.

Evgeni Kalinichenko from ukrainian club Motor Zaporozhye is 2,06m(by the club website, couldn't find other sources, but realistic according to team's photo). I'll add him.
