WWWOOOOOWWWW, if I had known that I am THAT tall, I would have wanted a career as a Basketball Pro...

OK, besides the joking.. Thank you Icedog for rectifying my erroneous conversion. We all live and learn. I had this little creeping sensation (and no, it was not a dull razor..) that I might have gotten it wrong. The conversion, I mean.. Am not too used to feet and inchs and more comfy in the Metric measurements. My knowledge of so-called "Imperial" measures (feet and inch) is limited to 1 inch and its smaller graduations, preferrably measured along the lines of 5/8; 6/8; 7/8 etc.. ;-) That's about it!

Cheers

I hope you are ALL wrong about getting shorter as you get older.

I hate romance novels

"their eyes met across a crowded room"

but I love flying, my favorite thing in the world is to sit in coach find the tallest person in my area make eye contact then do a full body stretch w/ my toes pointed and leg room to spare

Now for Alex to say he's 6'10" or something.

Hahaha, that'd be cool. Sorry to disappoint though. I'm rather short for a dutchman. I'm 1,81 meters. So uhm....6ft van 0.4inches or so. Both my brothers are 6ft1 and I have a lot of friends around the 6ft 4 inches to 6ft 9 inches though. Dutch people are quite tall in general.

I spent two years in scotland, I felt like a giant sometimes.

im 6'0 at 22. Good news aside. Shrinking is a fact of life. It is a result of the body producing less synovial fluid to encapsulate your spinal discs, causing your cartilage spinal discs to dry out, therefore shrinking. The discs only shrink by a relatively small amount, but this small amount multiplied throughout all of your discs does add up.
