20+ Times Tall People And Short People Stood Together And Blew Our Minds
The human species really is an incredible thing. We have people who can reach up to eight feet tall and be as short as 21.5 inches. Knowing this, it seems like our bodies just can't make up their minds at what height they want us to be, and honestly, it blows our minds every time.
Here are photos where tall people just loomed over their shorter counterparts and they're hilarious. We have so many height jokes we want to make but we're going to hold them in because we could probably get stomped on.
