what is considered tall?

[BR0DIE]

I'm 6'0 and feel tiny, feels crap when you see a group of teens in the gym and they are all taller than you. Having said that I tell girls I'm 6'2 they never know the difference.

[Brick]

6'2.5" but just say 6'3 cuz its easier

[DB1982]

That's crazy some of you are 6'3"-6'5" and you don't consider yourself tall??

I guess I would say anything over 6' tall.
And anyone 6'4"+ your a Giant
Anyone over 7' + FREAK!!! lol

I think the definition of what is tall is changing. If you look at what was a normal man's height 500 years ago and compare it to now, there is a huge difference.

I wouldn't be too sure of that, if there's one thing girls know well, its inches.................

[Zodiac82]

5'11" but consider myself average if not on the shorter side

[canesfan804]

5'7" but I dont really look at someone and think they are tall until 6'3" or taller.

. It's a hell of a lot harder to find a decent suit because the stores almost never have your size in stock.

Or any off the rack clothes. Funny when they have something long enough it's cut for a fatass.

I'm sure you guys would probably know of a place that caters to tall people that are in shape. But you'd think a website that just carries size clothing for taller people (that aren't fat) and normal height people that are in shape and built would do well.

[auswest]

5.8, so I figured I'll just grow wider.

[boz]

Number one question for most women.

[diesel101]

I am 6' 1" 230lbs and always considered myself average

[Capebuffalo]

I think everyone can agree 7 ft is considered tall

[Misery13]

I'm 6'.

Wide.

[The Bear 79]

I'm 6'.

Wide.

lol...............he is pretty damn wide isn't he................

[kelkel]

Old but not fading away Bear!.....

[ReX357]

I'm 6'2" and although it's nice to be tall, I am somewhat envious of the shorter guys that fill out way faster when they start training. It's a struggle to look big when you're taller.

[Misery13]

Survival of the fittest Kelkel and bear. Survival of the fittest.

lol..............copy that big guy...........

[DSM4Life]

I like to surround myself with 10 year olds to help make me feel tall but sometimes even they are taller than me FML.

[The Bear 79]

There's a dirty joke somewhere in the idea of a grown man that likes to surround himself with 10 year olds.......................but that would be a "distasteful" joke.........................& were not distasteful here........................are we.............

[Knockout_Power]

I was walking around a lot today and trying to notice peoples heights and what would be considered "tall"... Even guys who are clearly 6' plus still dont seem tall cause most people now adays dont carry themselves well. Too many anorexic boys trying to fit into skinny jeans. Even at 6'2+, they seem so slight and I dont even notice.

[gixxerboy1]

its funny how many of you guys wish you were taller. I really have never cared or even crossed my mind.
And with a couple of the threads we had about it and fights i find it funny that height is usually brought up by the taller guys. I had an issue outside my club the other night. Some drunk douche. I was nice just told him he had to leave the parking lot after we were closed. And of course he started. But again it was a guy who wasnt really tall maybe 5'8 5'9 and chubby. So he starts on me about my height. WTF i forgot that 2 inches in height makes you tuffer

Agreed Gixx. Well as for the tall guys bringing it up. I can say I use to want to be taller but now that Im older it doesnt make a difference because I have a better looking wife than those guys. Also I dont have to move weights as far when doing dead lifts.

Well Gixx, think about it, when someone says "I'm 270 lbs", that doesn't tell the whole story, if they're 5'-8" that's fvcking beastly, at 6' to 6'-4" that's pretty impressive, at 6'-8" to 7' that's not so impressive. When telling "a fight story" on a forum rather than face to face, the mention of height & weight of the parties involved brings things into perspective. I've never been under the impression height makes you "tuffer" however, I'd say more muscle per square inch of body makes you tougher, especially when / if it comes down to strength against strength................considering you also have the necessary mentality to be tough...............some people just aren't fighters no matter how big they are.

But that's an entirely different subject..................

oh i didnt mean it with you telling your story.
I meant at the time something is happening. Typically if im starting to have words with someone or they are going to talk shit they always want to bring up height.
Or when im out with my girl or when i was with my ex. They are both taller and especially in heels. Guys would make gestures about the height difference. I didnt see it one time when i was with my ex. Some guy looked at her and point one hand high and one low reffering to our height difference. She responded by putting out her hands like i had a 15 inch cock

[The Bear 79]

lol..........I know you weren't targeting me brother, I was just using my weight & story as an example.........

[Lunk1]

lol...............he is pretty damn wide isn't he................

If you measure glute to glute

[The Bear 79]

Ha....

Its just typical BS. They're just trying to get a reaction out of you. And normally when they can't they start with the childish name calling type sh**.
