Tidwell didnt get banned, he's now too short to reach the keyboard.
How many inches does the average male lose in height as he gets older?

The answer to this question is, (by memory), the average adult male loses approx 0.25inches per decade after the age of 30.
Obviously it varies per person and all that.
Essentially the vertebrae of the back move closer together due to long-term effects of gravity over decades.

My dad went from 6’6 to like 6’3, maybe 6’3.5. I spent my whole childhood hoping I’d grow taller than my dad but I never made it, not even as he shrunk in old age. Unfortunate. I never even got to be as tall as my 6’4 uncle. BS.
The weirdest part is how strangely proportioned I am. I’m 6’2 but I have like 30” legs. Wtf.. most of my jeans are a 30-32 leg. God damn legs
