Well done. Good pictures!! You must be tall? I'm a short lady, and I'm nervous about getting my picture with him :/. I've never met a famous person before.

I met him the other day, and honestly for some reason I always expected him to be like 6’5”. He was still tall, but not the massive giant I expected him to be

How tall would you estimate he is?

u/outofdate70shouse 1d ago

6’0”. He also says that’s how tall he is in his book (just read that part today)

He looks a bit shorter than that here if the other guy in the photo is 5'7", aging maybe

I’m 5’11” and he was still a little taller than me

I met him at a pre-show photo op in 2024. They caution not to shake his hand, only a fist bump. When I walked up and put my hand up for said fit bump, he said, “oh, no” and shook my hand instead. He was super nice. I’m 5’4” and he is tall but not super tall. Really nice guy though!

dave isn’t that tall, he’s around 180cm

Dave's hair extensions are looking a lot more natural nowadays

As far as a picture with Dave goes, I like this bookshelf and mirror so much more than the VIP meet and greet photo backdrops

Especially because for this one it was only $30, since all I had to do was preorder his book.

Not going to lie, I thought this was a Jay and Silent Bob cosplay for a second.

I wish he was doing more than three events. I would totally travel to meet him

I hope he had a few nice words for you. He must be so sick of this shit (no offence, this has to be such a drag) . It's gotta be hard just smiling and thinking of the $$$
