By now, you’ve likely heard of James Comey.
The FBI director has been visible in political goings-on as of late, from the Hillary Clinton e-mail controversy to questions about Russian meddling.
One thing people might not know about the leader of the FBI? He’s tall.
Like, really tall.
At 6 feet 8 inches, Comey — who reportedly likes to play basketball — is likely the tallest FBI director ever.
He was in Chelsea, Mass., on Tuesday for the ribbon-cutting of a new Boston FBI headquarters, and even next to Governor Charlie Baker — who clocks in at 6 feet 6 inches — Comey basically towered over everyone.

This isn’t the first time Comey’s height has been noticed: It was noted on political talks shows in January, when the FBI director seemed to overshadow President Trump while the two shook hands.
