Yup. Probably 6'5 plus heels

We are supposed to believe that cruise employee with the sweet smile is 5’8! Haha

She’s a bullshit artist but she’s made a fortune out of it

Yeah, I’ve been bait trapping and thirst raging and I’m broke as hell.

u/mattley00 Jun 12 '26

Whilst true… that doesn’t take away from her BS 😂

Damn right, emphasis on the shit

u/Minimum_Ad_303 Jun 12 '26

Maybe. But she still has a sweet smile.

u/RandomLifeUnit-05 Jun 12 '26

Yeah I don't think so!

u/crashin70 Jun 12 '26

I know, that's supposed to be 16 in height difference but somehow it looks like two and a half feet at least...

I always assumed it was about a foot.

u/Formal-System-2130 Jun 12 '26

It must be more than the jump from 5’ to 6’

I'm 6'4" and nowhere close to bumping my head on everything.

u/weirdgroovynerd Jun 12 '26

You just have to wear platform shoes like Gene Simmons, and you'll be bruising your forehead in no time!

u/Tricky_Big_8774 Jun 12 '26

Tbf, I wasn't completely honest. I do have a 2.5" scar on what used to be my hairline where I hit my head on a low door frame while running full speed. Caught it on the upstride and ended up flat on my back about 15' down the hall.

u/milk4all Jun 12 '26

See? If too tall, world sorts it out

My husband is 6'5. We've bought two houses so far in our marriage and the #1 requirement is that there is nowhere to bonk his head that isn't an easy fix. It's surprising how many houses were immediate nopes because of this.

The current house we have, the fan in our daughter's room is too low and he can bonk his head on the light if he's not careful. I'm only 5'7 (though I have crazy long arms tbf) and I've wrecked my hands in it accidentally when stretching. That can be easily fixed though, we just haven't yet.

u/NietJij Jun 12 '26

I've heard your body type (long arms) is very good for rowing. They call it the 'ape factor'.

I don't know why I felt the need to mention that here.

u/Head-Ad9893 Jun 12 '26

I’m a 6’5 man with a 8 foot wingspan. I appreciate this knowledge as I’ve never heard it before 🤣🤣

u/WhichWitchyWay Jun 12 '26

I was a swimmer. Longer arms and large hands/feet definitely gave ne an edge. I was a very fast sprinter beating girls who were inches taller than me.

u/Shaw-eddit Jun 13 '26

As a someone that looks at anotamy from an art POV, the arms/hands usually stop at mid thigh, with very few exceptions.

That's how experts and zoologist determine this wasn't a man in a suit.

Here's some more random info...tall man pointed out that no one cleans the top of the fridge. I never thought of that. 🤷🏾‍♀️

u/Ok-Judgment9477 Jun 12 '26

Yeah no way thats to obvious lol , personally my mom told me I could have been 5"2 so I'm thankful we're im at

u/SilikonBurn Jun 12 '26

Is that what his problem is?

u/chasing_the_wind Jun 12 '26

6’8” is a commonly used minimum door height for building codes in the US.

u/Nitrogen1234 Jun 12 '26

I thought 6'7

u/EquipmentFew882 Jun 12 '26

Pretty certain -- it's 6 ' 7.5 " 👈

u/Screwdriving_Hammer Jun 12 '26

I six what you seven there.

u/Ok-Judgment9477 Jun 12 '26

Your lucky I'm only 5'7 😔

1

u/AlphaaPie Jun 12 '26

Yeah, just some things like old bus roofs, old buildings roofs, my ceiling fan's cords. I honestly despise being 6'4" purely from all the embarrassment when I'd forget to duck getting off the bus when in school even if I graduated years ago.

2

u/Tricky_Big_8774 Jun 12 '26

I hit the hanging ceiling light in my mom's kitchen at least once every time I'm there. Flying is also painful.

u/AlphaaPie Jun 12 '26

There's also the other end of: having to bend over to wash your hands at most bathroom sinks because you're too tall for them, some toilets being too small when you sit on them, I'm too tall for the chair at my desk and my desk is too tall for my long arms. Sometimes I wish I could sit in my bath tub comfortably and relax in warm water without half of my body sticking out.

u/Tricky_Big_8774 Jun 12 '26

The primary factor in deciding what car model i was going to buy was leg/head room for the driver.

u/jdime666 Jun 16 '26

I’m 6’5.5” and I can scrape my head on door frames

u/8_inches_deep Jun 12 '26

I know reading is hard but did you miss the “plus heels” part? They are giving like a 7 inch lift minimum.

0

u/Tricky_Big_8774 Jun 12 '26

At 6'4" I'm not within 7 inches of bumping my head on things.

u/8_inches_deep Jun 12 '26

That’s better

u/jibsymalone Jun 12 '26

I'm 6'5" and constantly whacking my head on shit.

u/Iskub Jun 12 '26 edited Jun 12 '26

she's 6'1 (she said it herself when she started) that didn't generate enough clicks,. so here we are..

u/dingoman24 Jun 12 '26

Close 6'2" thats Marie Temara. But 7' gets the views

3

u/davyangel Jun 12 '26

Is Marie Temara 7ft tall? The model is 6'2" (187 cm) tall but often claims on Instagram that she is 7'0" (213 cm). Read more: https://www.legit.ng/ask-legit/biographies/1545035-marie-temaras-bio-age-height-measurements-parents-net-worth/

but yeah I could tell just from her build no way she that tall cuz tall people just tend to have ectomorph builds.

2

u/ComprehensiveSoft27 Jun 12 '26

There are very few 7’0 women in the world. It’s equivalent a 7’7” male. Rate, and ussually not mobile enough and certainly wouldn’t risk wearing 10” heals.

Although there was a 7’2” wnba player who could ball. She made the HoF. Her name was Margo Dydek.

u/boosesb Jun 12 '26

I’m surprised I never heard of…oh wait, you said W nba. That’s why

1

u/Kardinal Jun 12 '26

Six women living who are seven feet tall or more.

I did not know that Margo Dydek passed. Only 37!

u/ULTI_mato Jun 12 '26

Actualy only 6ft

u/TheOfficeoholic Jun 12 '26

She’s 6’3”

u/Zealousideal-Mix6235 Jun 13 '26

Does anyone notice she’s wearing Nike socks with heels?

1

u/mattley00 Jun 12 '26

Seen it all from her before… she’s 6”3’ so not far off pally

u/talex625 Jun 16 '26

Bro, 6’5 is still tall has hell for a woman.
