The Tall People Thread- are you one?

:( Oh dear.

I must admit, he didn't look to be in great shape in that film.

It was amazing to watch the "extras" DVD and find out that the incredibly "artificial sounding" deep voice that was used for his "giant" character in the film, was actually his own :eek: !

Sorry, back to the topic in hand ......
yeah, I know what you mean about the voice. when I first heard it, I was like "no, that can't be his voice" but...it is...

you should hear the woman that I talked about before...her voice was deeper than most of the men who were also on the show.
 
a moment of silence for the true giants... (life can't be easy)

otherwise, I'm 6'3" @ a lean 190 lbs (34" waist). though pants were my major clothing problem 20+ years ago, that's not the issue anymore. shoes are still a challenge. pickings are much better in recent years for mens size 15. ([Invalid or Expired Link Removed]. still can't find a good pair of dinghy boots (neoprene sailing boots) in a size 15.

:smug: Well, you know what they say;

"Big feet ...... big, errr .... problems finding shoes that fit :p !

Dude, we have the same shoe and waistsize! High five!:D

Thanks for that site, I may just have to use it!
 
5'11 here, but only 122 pounds.

I'm big and tall for an Asian. 5' 10" and 190 lbs.

Go ahead and blast me for stereotyping Asians.

Actually, the world's tallest man, AND the shortest man, are both Asian!
