What does a tall person do when they see an airplane? Duck, or “how's the weather up there” are classics for a reason, although one must also applaud the gumption to mock a person who is literally larger than you to their face. But as it turns out, the world sometimes really isn’t designed for those who have the privilege of seeing a bit further.

So we’ve gathered some of the most hilarious pictures that really showcase “tall people problems" for your viewing enjoyment. Settle in as you scroll through, upvote your favorites and, if any of these seem relatable to you, be sure to share your own thoughts and stories in the comments down below.

I went to school with a guy who was 6’8” in 10th grade. So by like 16. I always wonder if he grew more after graduation and what he's up to these days. I can't think of his last name for anything though 😩

    you bring the crate, then.

    Being a tall person is often treated like a prestigious club that everyone wants to join, but nobody tells you the membership fees involve hitting your forehead on every basement beam in the civilized world. While society treats the vertically gifted like literal gods, the physical world was clearly designed by a committee of people who topped out at five-foot-seven. This creates a hilarious biological irony where you are statistically more likely to be a CEO but also statistically more likely to have a showerhead that only washes your chest.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    From an evolutionary perspective, our ancestors viewed height as a signal of health and dominance, a trait that continues to influence modern social hierarchies. Research consistently shows a strong link between height and leadership, suggesting that taller individuals are often perceived as more authoritative and intelligent, regardless of whether they actually know how to change a tire or lead a boardroom.

    This social prestige even translates into cold, hard cash, which is helpful because you’ll need it to buy custom-length pants. Economists have long documented the "height premium," a phenomenon where every extra inch of stature can lead to a significant increase in annual earnings. In fact, a famous study published by the American Psychological Association suggests that someone who is six feet tall might earn hundreds of thousands of dollars more over their career than a colleague who is several inches shorter.

    It seems the "view from the top" isn't just scenic, it’s lucrative. However, this extra income is often immediately swallowed up by the "tall tax," which includes the cost of extra-legroom seats on airplanes and the specialized tailoring required to avoid looking like you’re wearing a toddler’s hand-me-downs.

    Indeed true for a lot of cars. My fiances old toyota corolla is perfect for me wherever I seat. But a lot of more modern cars are designed with a very long arch over heads that's going from sides on a back seats. More or less ok in a middle (slight squeeze from top) but impossible to seat near a door without breaking your neck. // why I am being downvoted for a FACT? So many hurted feelings? Sorry not sorry. This rant is not at you, but for manufacturers. Most cars available in EU are not designed for tall ppl. I am 1.91m and it's impossible to seat straigt on a back seat.

    Physically, being a human skyscraper is a constant battle against the laws of physics. Tall people are subject to the square-cube law, which essentially means that as you get taller, your volume and weight increase much faster than the strength of your bones and joints. This is why many tall people walk with a slight "question mark" slouch, they are trying to fit into a world of low-hanging chandeliers while their lower backs are staging a formal protest.

    Scientific studies have confirmed that taller height impacts disease risk in fascinating ways. While being tall is actually linked to a lower risk of coronary heart disease and high blood pressure, it unfortunately correlates with a higher risk of atrial fibrillation and certain types of cancer. It’s as if nature decided to give you the ability to reach the top shelf but decided to make your internal wiring a bit more complicated to compensate.

    a lot of tall people specifically book the emergency exit seats bc it gives extra room for the feet, or they purchase more expensive tickets with the leg room

    Airplane travel is a form of high-altitude yoga where your knees are permanently jammed into the lumbar support of the person in front of you. Even the simple act of walking down the street becomes a social event because strangers feel a deep, spiritual need to ask, "How’s the weather up there?" or ask if you play basketball.

    Fitting In! Or Tall People Problems

    Tall man struggles in low spaces and doorways, illustrating common challenges faced by tall people in everyday situations.

    It all started in a supermarket in Greece where he was oblivious. In fact, I don't think he realized I was taking a picture.

    And really progressed in Romania. Here's our hotel room in Bucharest - it dawned on him that fitting in might be an issue.

    Attempting to exit the church.

    Another hotel room in Romania. I bet he finally knows how average height people look out of a window.

    I feel this one. If you're tall, tops always have too-short sleeves and don't actually reach your jeans/look like crop tops, short dresses are borderline indecent, long dresses fall around mid shin and just look weird, and try to find long length womens trousers/jeans/joggers... "Oh yes, we have long length!" Then they show you some with a 30" inseam... Um, no, that's not long. I need 34" minimum. I've the last few years all stores in the UK have moved their tall range to online only (still have plus and petite in-store so why not tall?), so you can't just go buy things. Oh, and the stores that still have long length/tall womens clothing are usually way more expensive. Been struggling to find tall clothing since I was in my teens and it's very annoying!

    The other thing I’ve found with my daughter is if a woman is tall and ‘in proportion’ sizes need to be bigger for things like shorts, and shops like H&M go down as low as a UK size 4 but don’t even stretch to a UK size 14. How dare she be tall like a model but not rake thin??

    Prince had the opposite problem when making Purple Rain. The original choice for his motorcycle, a Harley, looked oversized against his small frame. He also couldn't drive a manual. Ultimately, the team fitted him on a Honda CM400 with a Hondamatic transmission. Looked awesome for his stature. He also wore heels to stand eye to eye with his co-star, Apollonia Kotero.

    In the USA they take a bath wherever they go, it seems.

    "Bathroom" meaning toilet & sink, not an actual tub or shower.

    Okay, what is wrong with this house? Regular ceiling height in Germany is 245 cm. Even in very old houses it's at least 200 cm.

    Old houses that predate the 1940's or so tended to have smaller doorframes and such. The average person was much smaller back then.

    I seem to remember the ceilings I encountered in Germany were at least 2.50 m high. Here in Ireland "only" 2.42 m. This fellow would have to duck when going through doors almost everywhere.

    S***s because tall-sized womens pants aren't too hard to find bc of different heel heights, but long enough tops is nearly impossible. Especially if you want something stylish.

    LTS (formerly Long Tall Sally) is the only shop I've found that consistantly has long-enough sleeves. They also go up to 36" inseam for trousers.

    It doesn't help, they are only a little longer but a lot wider. My boyfriend is tall and slim - if he gets XL shirts for the length, they hang on him.

    I’m usually about the right height to not see and hit my head on these things. At least at that tall you can see the wall coming.

    That's not a problem for the tall people, when they are sat down nobody will be able to see them. Except another tall person on the outside with insatiable curiosity
