Shyyyyyyt….. 6’4” is brutal in economy. I can’t even imagine 6’8 or 7’0”.

Pro tip: nothing forces you to remain in your seat for the whole flight. I used to do a lot of Paris - Toronto and I'd spend most of the flight where they prepare the trays and shit, talking to the staff. Couple of times I was offered a nap in one of the bunks in the hull.

Why were you shit talking the staff?! Pretzels were stale?

6'2" checking the ain't no fun box either. Even when I was 185 lbs and running 55 miles a week in my 20's. Definitely not at 240 in my late 30s.

I was on a flight with Shawn Bradley once (7’6”). He sat in the front exit row to have the most leg room.

Slightly misleading Title. Wikipedia lists her (Rumeysa Gelgi , 7'0.3) as only the third tallest living woman. Siddiqi Parveen of India (7'8) and Sun Fang of China (7'3) are both taller https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tallest_people#Women

That is an incorrect title. Thank you for flagging! 7’8”? Wow!

That's crazy that the NBA has 23 men that are in 7.0+ feet tall range, but the entire world only has 3 women. Like, I understand that it's the biology that makes it very improbable, but still, there's about 4 billion women!

Gwendoline Christie is 6'3" and that's enough to have her character referred to as "the big woman" in Game of Thrones.
