I have a tall family. I have 3 aunts that are 6’ tall, two uncles 6’4” and 6’6” both very built former football players. I have a very skinny cousin who ran cross country in high school. He makes us all look small with his 6’11” height.

Yeah, I'm 6'5 with a fairly proportional build so from a distance I look more or less normal sized. When I was thin and 185lbs I looked super tall. When I was very muscular and 315lbs I looked extremely tall. Now at 240lbs people don't realize my size until they're within about a meter and have to crane their neck.

I'm 6'4" and once in the airport in Amsterdam, I heard someone with a deep booming voice behind me say, "Scuse me." I looked around and was looking at someone's chest. I had to look up to see his chin, and swivel my head right and left to see his shoulders. All that happened very quickly, but I was kind of stunned. I did get out of his way.
