A 2.23-m-tall man called Kang Jianhua has been attracting onlookers by beating a bronze gong in an effort to be employed, in Huaqiangbei Road, a busy street in Shenzhen special economic zone, Guangdong province, last Tuesday.


Kang, 43, who was once a basketball player, said he was desperate to work after retiring early from an automobile company in Chongqing municipality, last October.

Kang said because he was so big he had more daily expenses, including buying oversized clothes and shoes. He said he even has to pay double on buses because he takes up more space.

Kang has a pension but this is just a couple of hundred yuan a month.
