The After Hours "How High?" Poll!

mike65 · 2003-04-08 17:39:09

This place seems to have measured just about everything else, so here's another poll. How tall are you, and please state your actual height, not your "Offical Stature" a la Bono! :D If using metric please include feet and inches... Me 6'4"

Tall persons club

Its great being tall, except the odd stare you get now and again and the "how tall are you?" by complete strangers. Even though i'm 6ft6 i dont actually consider myself tall and find it bizarre that by just ducking to enter a room i attract so much attention.

Okay folks, whats going on here...?

I've just a done a quick calculation, 17 replies of whom 8 are 6 foot or over! Why thats er about 45% or something! Either the Irish are suddenly getting very tall
or most who are of "historical dictator" stature are unwilling to post.

C'mon now don't be shy - be short, be proud to be short!

Mike.
