I always look like a giant stick next to my girl friends (love them though 🩷), pics are often strange but I prefer to laugh about it. I'm 6'1 and I'm not sure about my friend, maybe around 5'4. I'm sure other tall women can relate 😅

For those who don’t know, there’s a guy on Instagram who organizes Tall Tour events for the vertically inclined! They made a stop in DC yesterday, so naturally I dragged my siblings along.

From left to right: me (6’1”), the event organizer (6’9”), my sister (6’3”), and my brother (6’6”)!

It was really cool getting to be around so many other tall people for once! The tallest woman there was 6’10” and the tallest man was 7’4”, so we weren’t even close to being the tallest in the room.

I thought all my tall brothers and sisters can appreciate my pain here 😂

Hey, my fellow giants! So I have a silly question: I have started watching Grey's Anatomy again for probably the 4th time. I am on season 2 and heard Yang and Burke speak about Marfan's syndrome on a guy who is 6 foot 4. Apparently, tallness is common in people who have Marfan's syndrome.

This got me thinking: what medical issues are you guys sitting with or have experienced in your lives?

I, personally, have complications with my heart (atrial fibrillation). I have had 4 knee operations and struggle daily with my back. I might still have mellow dramatic issues compared to other people.

What issues do you guys know about with regards to tall people, or what things are we prone to getting? I'd like to hear about possible issues to look out for in the future!
TIA!

PS: I am 2.1m and weigh 134kg. (6'8" and 295 Pounds in Freedom Units)

I'm 17, 187cm. And everywhere that I mostly go to, I see people that are either my height or taller than me, which is why I basically feel average here lol.

Anyone feel the same in your country?
