13 Inches Taller Than Average Chinese Man, Giant Shaquille O’Neal Makes Popular Transport Look Minuscule

Big Aristotle is making the most of his Chinese work trip. Shaquille O’Neal is in China on a series of gigs but he’s also taking out some personal time. The 4x NBA champion got some touristy action like a true traveler which has now surfaced on social media. Never one to let his ginormous stature come in the way, he got around on the country’s popular mode of transportation.

The Superman-loving fanatic usually customizes his vehicles to fit him. This time he adapted to his set of wheels and zipped through the streets of Hangzhou in style. As they say, when in Rome…

Shaquille O’Neal sweeps through China’s streets

People in Hangzhou, China could be out on their day and randomly witness a seven-foot giant zip past them on a tiny scooter. It is an average-sized scooter popularly used by adults in China to get them from A to B. But it’s hilariously dwarfed by Shaquille O’Neal. He enjoyed Hangzhou like a local, donning a safety helmet and riding a two-wheeled scooter. He shared the video on his official page on a Chinese social media site. It has spread all over the Internet from there.

Joining other bikers in identical t-shirts with ‘Shaquille’ on the back, Big Shamrock led the happy vibes biker gang in the video.

Despite his legs folding outwards more than an average-sized adult would have to, Shaq’s swerving about like it’s his daily commute. It’s surprising and funny enough that he’s comfortable on that narrow seat.

He is a seasoned biker. But of two-wheeled drives more his size. The Los Angeles Lakers legend customizes his vehicles, from luxury cars to his bikes, to fit him.

One of the beasts on wheels he owns is a custom-built 14-feet chopper appropriately named ‘Man of Steel’ by Orange County Choppers.

He got social media’s ire a few months ago for riding his motorcycle without a helmet in the US. This time, Shaq was obedient to the local traffic safety rules.

He was spotted on his scooter elsewhere too. Most fans applauded Shaq’s use of a helmet while riding a scooter. Enjoying the local transportation is not all he’s been up to.

Shaq feels small in China

Chinese fans are living the dream hosting Shaquille O’Neal in a grand way.

After showing some love to Papa John’s staff at the 300th Chinese location in Shanghai, the 2000 NBA MVP was at the Asian Games in Hangzhou. There he had the most heartwarming reunion. Shaq met former NBA star from China, Yao Ming while in Hangzhou.

The Internet especially enjoyed the big man looking smaller for once next to the 7’6″ basketball star.

While he was out riding his bike, O’Neal even met with few fans. He got pictures with a little baby in Hangzhou’s biggest clothing market and is up to more adventures in the city.
