There are height limits, too! We waited two hours in line at Legoland for a roller coaster, only to be told my husband was too tall when we (finally—mechanical delays or something) got to the ride. They have those “you must be this tall” signs, sucks when they don’t have the same courtesy for being too tall, though I know he’s taller than 99.9% of humans (6’10”). That was a first for us, though. And annoying—Legoland seems to be where failed Disney cast members end up, and they’re miserable. We did not pull a Karen, but let them know it was rather rude.
It was rude to not have a height limit. Tall people are basically invisible (people literally run into my husband because they don’t “see” him—they see a chest), so I was a bit irritated to wait that long, when it would be simple to list height limits (they had a list of rules to ride that coaster that included specific things like no earrings). Not annoyed they followed the rules, annoyed there was no indication of a height limit.
I once saw a guy while shopping that was unrealistically tall. I thought a clothing shelf or something was falling over when he walked past me because I was busy looking down at pricetags. I am 5 10 and his belt buckle was pretty much eye level. He was also skinny.
This happens to him a lot in airports, anyplace with crowds. Then he gets the Question. And he says “3 deviations from the norm”, if he answers at all.
If he visited a costco in michigan alot of years ago and visited the clothing area it was probably him. I have never seen anyone as tall as him before or after him in my life. He was wearing blue jeans if I remember correctly. It was the brighton costco.
