Why do Actors exaggerate their Heights? (Pics included)

Mark Wahlberg who is closer to 5 foot 7 yet claims 5 foot 10 is even smaller.

It seems the standard for Hollywood is if you are 5 foot 7 barefoot in real height, claim to either be 5 foot 9 or 10.

Would of been funny if he stop on a step just for the photo.
 
Although honestly I think more high end modelling isn't always after "good looking" women so much as women with a unique look to them as well of course as being beanpole thin and as you say tall. Many women who get into softcore porn/glamour modeling especially are actually a lot more attractive than your typical catwalk model from my point of view anyway.

Yeah the unique look thing is definitely there, but those aren't the ones that usually get publicity, the high end models that get publicity are usually knock outs (Christy Brinkley, Paulina Porizkova, Cindy Crawford, Stephanie Seymour, Candice Swanepoel, Alessandra Ambrosio, etc.). I don't want to drive the topic away from the height thing though.
 
Yeah, I noticed that to its mainly from the Action star guys who lie about their height.

Look at Vin Diesel here, dude is wearing those custom made lift boots if I were to guess his real height probably 5 foot 9?

Pratt is a pretty big dude, but unlike the other action stars you can tell he is a legit 6 foot 2 while other guys will exaggerate their size. Also look how short the supposed 6 foot 6 Batista is, did he also lose height when he lost weight lol

I love how Vin is trying to casually flex his arm facing the camera. I have a friend who tries to do this in all his pictures on FB.
 
Beetlejuice routinely claims to be 6 ft. tall and weigh 300 lbs. I'm not buying it.

I wonder why people are so insecure aboiut their height? no one cares, it's not like people talk about it and research it and post pictures and compare them on forums and call them manlets. I mean we definitely don't care right, so why do actors care? Makes no sense right guys?
 
lol

he impregnated the tiniest one she is 4 foot 11 barefoot

I would feel self conscious and creepy dating a girl that small. And I'm just a 5'11 manlet. For a guy of wlad's size to marry this makes me assume he has some pedo inclination.

Apparently he knocks her about too.

Word on the grapevine is....
 
IDK what you boys are talking about, I'm a legit 5'9 in the morning, 5'8.5 in the afternoon, and 5'8.25 at night due to spinal compression. I feel like I tower over errybody

Women definitely care. And that's why we care. Can't even begin to count the number of times my lady friends refused to date a guy because he was short.

Noticed he has a large head. Maybe his other head is big too. :rolleyes:
 
Why you gotta do Marky Mark dirty like that?

All the other men in that picture are over 6'3".
 
Why do people say their height with shoes: "I'm 5'11, 6'0 with shoes"? Shoes isn't a fucking measurement, you might as well say "I'm 5'7, 6'8 with stilts".
because most people go outside with shoes on, they don't walk around barefoot.

its better for people to say with shoes because they are being honest a person frauding wont tell you with shoes they will just include that as their real height so if they are 5 foot 6 barefoot and with shoes they are 5 foot 7 and half they might tell people im 5 foot 8, because you cant really tell unless you measure someone who is 5 foot 7 or 5 foot 8 its a small difference in height.
 
I'm guessing maybe some kind of fetish at play there though?

Height is I believe one of the few things(not stuff like hand/foot size) that does relate somewhat to dick size but even then I suspect its rather weaker than expectation.

Theres a sherdog poll in here somewhere isn't there? something like "would you trade 2 inchs of height for 1 inch of dick size or vice versa". <45>
Height means jack shit to penis size, Howard Stern is 6 foot 5 and said his penis is only 6 inches full erected on his show, there are dwarfs with bigger dicks than most average size dudes, also there are two popular porn actors who are barely 19 they were interviewed on this hip hop station in cali and the guy is only 5 foot 5 looks like a 13 year old and weighs 110 pounds soaking wet yet he said his penis is 8 and half inches long and he is banging some of the hottest milfs in the game.

The truth is you can never tell who is packing or not.
 
Hardly anyone understands how height works and just throws numbers around, a legit 6'2" guy is actually really tall and will be taller than 80% of people.

I have a friend who is 6'9" and he literally towers everyone, even on the rare occasion a guy who is 6'4" or 6'5" comes by he is clearly taller, I at 6 feet feel tiny next to him.

My sister is 5'6" - 5'7" and tells everyone she is 5'4", it's hilarious when manlets at 5'8" say they are 5'10" and over and she is eye level to them.

Also pictures are terrible at measuring heights, so inconsistent and never make sense.

Women do the opposite they always say they are shorter than they are for some reason. and they also like to shave a few pounds of their actual weight

men will add height and weight to their stats

Just like with sexual partners women dont like to admit their actual number and pretend they are almost virginal where Men are padding their stats with more partners than usual.

I've seen a few women exaggerate their height. Most women probably stop exaggerating after 5'9 though. Other than that, yeah

The issue really is that you get some kind of scientific study that shows theres a link between something like height and digit ratio and the media coverage will tend to overplay it greatly for attention. Really what your looking at for such studies tends to be a quite weak link that's only notable when you look at a very large set of data not a guide for individual people. I can say that from personal experience being bang on the UK average height wise at 5'10 but somewhat above it in other respects.

Lol big guy with small dick detected

This is like saying height means jack shit to size of all organs. Of course they're bigger on average. And lol at your examples being a porn star and a rail-thin Jewish guy.
