VLADIMIR Putin's uncontrollable shaky legs as he bid farewell to Donald Trump at the Alaskan summit have sparked wild speculation he was wearing Lifts.
Many claim the Russian leader opted for the height-boosting shoes to minimise his height difference with the 6ft3 inch-tall US president.
It comes as the Russian leader has been dogged by persistent health rumour for years - including suggestions he has Parkinson’s or cancer - which have all been denied by the Kremlin.
Ukrainian news outlets were quick to call out the despot's jelly legs and speculate whether his furious twitches were caused by his height-boosting shoes.
Times of Ukraine said: “Attention — Putin's legs. What is wrong with them?”
While Telegram channel Nevzorov added: “Putin seems to have achieved his goal, but he is twitching suspiciously. His legs are ‘shaking.’ Maybe his shoes are tight".
Trump, a lofty 6ft3 inches tall towers above Putin who stands at just 5ft7, making many wonder whether the Russian leader opted for some extra thick-soled shoes to appear more dominant during the historic meeting.

It’s like they have a mind of their own.
Kind of like those Lord of the Dance guys.
Putin is looking just fine.
It’s your YEARS old Lil Z Spam that isn’t aging well.
I know that when I get nervous, I tuck my thumb. Have done that as long as I remember.
Probably started with the first lie I told my mother..."I swear...I never tried smoking before"....
“Your Putin has negative 2 days!”- the marcus
Marky Mark must own the Sunday Sport 🤣
Keir Starmer wanted that Taylor doll. Wanted it bad.
Did MI 6 feed you this propaganda?
You follow the system of British propaganda artists perfectly. Do you really believe we are just all morons who do not know the HEINOUS PROPAGANDA-STORIES purpose?
This is your method to a T:
Lord Arthur Ponsonby was a British diplomat and politician, dates 1871–1946.
This keen and cagey fellow pinpointed 10 rules of propaganda. They are these:
1. We don’t want war, we are only defending ourselves.
2. The other guy is solely responsible for this war.
3. Our adversary’s leader is evil and looks evil.
4. We are defending a noble purpose, not special interest.
5. The enemy is purposefully causing atrocities; we only commit mistakes.
6. The enemy is using unlawful weapons.
7. We have very little losses, the enemy is losing big.
8. Intellectuals and artists support our cause.
9. Our cause is sacred.
10. Those who doubt our propaganda are traitors
Oh my gosh!!
Busted!!
I believe Putin is 73. He looked okay for a geezer besides his Stage 4 elbow cancer. 🤣🤣
Vladimir Putin (born October 7, 1952, Leningrad, Russia, U.S.S
I missed the the leg twitching but I did notice him have a limp as he went up the stairs to jet but for someone who is 73 didn’t seem to unusual
Of course the question arises: was that really Putin or a body double?
I am 73 and have a slight limp too. Bad knee and some back issues.
He could have just stood on tippie toes like the Jebster.
Jawlines, eyelids and ears: Did Trump meet Putin or his look-alike in Alaska?
(Asking for a friend)
Stalin was shorter than Truman...
