Doctors believe that Bisad has a condition called pituitarygiantism, that makes growth continue after most people stop developing. Expert in abnormal growth Professor Mike Besser, from Bart’s Hospital, Central London, said he probably has a tumour in the pituitary gland behind his eyes.[5]
Hussain was born in 1975 in Burao, the capital of the Togdheer region in central Somaliland.[7] In 2015 he married Yasmin Hasan Muhumed in a wedding ceremony in Hargeisa, attended by Somaliland officials like Mohamed Kahin Ahmed, as well as the shortest living man in Somaliland.
Due to health complications he now lives in a care home in Brent.[8]
