I was out last night and met a dude who was 6'11" or 7'. Absolutely towered over me, which I am not used to at all. Being made to feel small is a very foreign feeling and I was uneasy looking UP to talk to someone.

It doesn't happen often but when I meet some freak of nature who's like 5'10" or something, I feel a little weird.

Aren't you 6'5 but like 180bs?

Pretty sure you feel small because you are small.

I'm 5'7. It's normal to meet and interact with people taller than me.

I'm 6'3 215 and I always think about this when watching basketball. The smallest guys on the court are my size or bigger.

A very good friend and my brother in law are both taller than me, so generally it doesn't register as unusual. If it's a woman, I take notice, though.

All OTers are 6-4 or above, so it doesn't happen often.

I live in South Louisiana so I'm a little surprised every time I meet someone taller than 5'7.

I have met maybe two people than me in person. I've met 5-6 whom I was similarly height to. Basketball players. I'm 6'8 and everyone I meet says that have a cousin or brother or ex that was my height. I used to believe them. But I've come to realize that there's no way that can be true with as often as its said.

I will say, I was unsettled when a dude who was 6'2 picked me up like a toothpick the other day at work. I ain't skinny.

I'm 6'3 so it really isn't anything that makes me uncomfortable but when I see high school kids who tower over me, that's a bit upsetting

Not really. I'm 6'7" so when I meet someone taller I like it.

In this 1.5 page thread, we already have like 8 people who are 6'5"+ and the rest are only 6'2ish. Amazing stats here.
