At 7ft 4in tall, Christopher Lister doesn’t have the best of physiques to be a successful burglar.
Yet the instantly recognisable 21-year-old decided to burgle a house in daylight.
His intended victims lived just yards from his home and everyone knows the ungainly human skyscraper nicknamed "Stretch".
As he and two pals attempted to load a £1,800 plasma TV into their getaway van he was easily spotted.
The van got stuck, forcing them to run off empty-handed.
Given Lister’s distinctive description, police arrested him moments later and he is now Britain’s tallest prisoner after being jailed for 11 months.

It's like saying come and arrest my ass.
