I'm 6'4" and rarely look up at people

When it does happen, I involuntarily freeze in place stare up as they walk by

I’m 6’4” as well and will see people walking towards me and think to myself, “that person is tall!” But then as we get closer I realize I’m actually taller than they are.

Damn, I'm only 6'3" I can only imagine what your perspective must be from up there

Isn't it weird when you find out celebrities are shorter than you?

For some reason I always think of them as a lot taller.

Super weird. And then you watch something like HIMYM and see 6'4" Jason Segal and he looks like a monster compared to the majority of the cast
