OT - Wilt!
 
I was watching an old rerun of "I've Got A Secret" with Gary Moore and one of the guests was Wilt Chamberlain. His "secret" was that he had recently scored 100 points in a game. The panel guessed it in about 10 seconds. The funniest part was that Gary Moore got up on a ladder to talk to Wilt. I don't think I had ever seen Wilt wearing a business suit before.

It also came out that he had broken his own record of 78 points.

I have to admit that compared to everyone else on the show, he was really, really tall. :D

Did he talk about his record of sleeping with 20,000 different women in his life? Maybe it wasn't a secret?

Sat next to him at a game a couple times at a game in the mid-60s, back when the 76er's played their pre-season at HS gyms in surrounding towns. My dad got me tix from a friend. The seat was at the end of the 76er's bench. They were playing Boston and even in pre-season it was a pretty rough game between him and Russell, who wasn't exactly short.

I believe he is the tallest man I've ever met. Pembrook Burrows comes in a close second.
