Over 7' is a bit much. I'm only 6'0 and 1/2 sometimes 5/8. I'd love to be 6'6" View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:
Quoted: Why lucky? There comes a point when 'huge' or too tall becomes a health issue and/or an inconvenience. That height at his age is more of a curse than a blessing. No. I don't fucking play basketball. |

Some of youse make me sick.
He’s not on HGH. He doesn’t take steroids. He isn’t eating special food. His mother is almost 6’ and his father, at his prime, was a round 6’4” Look at his feet and how he carries himself. He’s at that age. Being 15 and over 6’6” is not really that fun. You don’t fully grasp that this is permanent and how the world is made for 5’9” short shits. He seems like a well mannered kid. I dunno why people can’t lay off. Nobody called out Obamas daughters for being Molly freaks or Ron Reagan Jr for being a fruit. |

Quoted: I'm 6'6". There's nothing lucky about it, I assure you. View Quote The biggest issue is shoes and clothes. Most stores don't stock size 15-16 shoes. Other than that, I love being tall and I can't imagine being a short guy. That would really suck. My son is 11, is 5'5" and wears a 10.5 - 11 shoe. |

Slightly off topic, I know, but for the enhanced height posters relaying the frustrations that come with being tall, I'll offer this story I wrote a few years ago. It's about a woman who some claimed was the tallest in America at one time. Legend says Ella Ewing was more than 8 feet tall . . .

He should hit the weights and be a fucking monster by the time he is 18.
Hope he gets into politics as well and becomes a force to be reckoned with for the Right. He will remember how these Swamp creatures have treated his family. |

In before the dems (or the #nevertrumpers here) whine about how much it's costing the tax-payer to feed him.

I'm 6'3" and finding a vehicle with enough headroom so your head isn't rubbing the roof is pretty difficult. I'd imagine it's increasingly difficult for every additional inch taller.
Back when I was in High School I was one of the tallest guys in a school with about 2,000 kids. Now there's a metric buttload of 6th graders 6'3" and taller. |

Trump is not 6-3 or 6-4.
Get serious. There are pictures of him standing next to people of known height. Trump just fudges his height so as to explain his weight. If he revealed his real height, it makes him morbidly obese, and that does not work with his media image. He is less than 6-2 (which is what he said on his old driver's license before he got fat). Look at the photos of him standing next to people like Jeb, Alex Rodriguez, or even Obama. He is basically 6-1. |

Off topic but...…..
I have a 2nd cousin who lives out in Rhode Island who is about 70 years old now IIRC. He grew up to be about 6'10" back then and always complained that he was enduring BAD joint pain when he went through his growth spurts. One time when his family visited he was literally in tears at the family gathering and we went away from the picnic and he told me about it. I felt bad for him....I could tell it REALLY HURT and I couldn't do anything to help him. |
