I have an acquaintance that is 6’11". She is not awkward at all and her husband is 6’8". Funnily enough they got a dog that was a miniature bull dog. Both are really nice people.

I know a lot of women (at least 10) over 6 feet tall but then I also know several men who are well over 6 1/2 feet tall. None of them play basketball as far as I know. I also know a lot of women who are 5 feet tall only in heels and a few men around that height as well.

> She was about 6’6" or maybe a bit more and graceful as could be. At a distance, without something for scale, she looked like the average girl her age (18). It wasn’t until you had her next to something that her height really stood out. The worst place was on the back of my one bike; it was a early 70s style chopper with the extreme king-queen seat and it looked (and balanced) a little odd.

Who was?
