However, the extended family appreciates the Trapps family\u2019s height. \u201cThey think it is useful for household projects. They don\u2019t ever need a ladder,\u201d adds Scott.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Trapp family leans on each other during the ups and downs of their extraordinary height. \u201cIt\u2019s so nice to have someone else to look up to and someone to understand what you are going through being tall,\u201d Molly shared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Each family member experiences unique situations due to their height. The popular response amongst them is that they frequently hit their heads on doorways, ceiling fans, and overhead lighting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The unanimously agrees with another difficulty: finding clothing, especially pants and shoes.

They are just really long pants.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Growing up, Savanna, Molly and Adam excelled in sports growing up. Their height and hard work ethic propelled them to success. Savanna was recruited by UCLA to play Division I basketball, Molly played volleyball in college, and Adam was a star basketball player in high school. They had the advantage of being able to easily block shots in their respective sports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Savanna, Molly, and Adam, now adults, excel in life as a result of their experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Savanna adds that family hopes that their new Guinness World Records title \u201cempowers others who are unique or feel different. There is joy and freedom in embracing who you are. Rock what you got.
