My former olympic gold medalist Serbian personal trainer says the OP is a wee man.

You'll notice the OP mentioned nothing about penis size. There's prob a reason for that... just sayin.

I’ve never understood the obsession that some tall guys have with short guys

This. Kevin Durant can win NBA MVP but can't bench 185. Lincoln was a good wrestler and presumably decently strong, but 6'4, slender with long arms is fatal to your bench.

Trump isn't 6'2". Jeb Bush is listed at 6'3" (as is Trump) and if you look at any picture of them standing next to each other, Bush is several inches taller. Obama is listed as 6'1" and they might be the same height but most pictures it looks like Trump is slightly shorter than Obama.

It's always the tall guys that are failing at life that seem to have the obsession, especially if they see shorter guys with stuff they think they should have (women, money, respect) just by virtue of height.

there's no way Lincoln or Trump benches 225. Maybe Washington.



Dude used to put on strong man displays in towns. Actually put straps on his shoulders and did a limited range of motion squat to get over 1k lbs off the ground.

Lincoln was an ox.

His form may have been shite, but I'd put money on Honest Abe being able to throw up 225 at least once.
