Super Tall 17-Year-Old Is Handing Out Business Cards To People Who Won’t Stop Asking About His Height
150Kviews
If you are tall and you’re always being bombarded with “how tall are you” type of questions, you can learn a lot from this 17-year-old! Logan, a 6′ 7″ (2,04 m) high-school senior from Holly Springs, bought 100 business cards for just 10$ that answer all these annoying questions right away.
He estimates that people ask him about his height 5-10 times a day, therefore his stock is already running low. It was the “best investment yet,” – says Logan.
The whole thing went viral when a girl named Heather was working on a group project with Logan, and of course she couldn’t resist the temptation to ask him about his height. Once she was handed a business card, she immedeately tweeted a picture of it.
“Omg so this kid I’m doin a group project with is mad tall n I asked him how tall he was and he pulled out his wallet n handed me this,” – wrote Heather.

I'd still have questions even if he handed me that card... Like... "Oh, but how tall is it in cm?" ^_- No, but, really, I understand because I'm tall too. And I'm a woman, somehow men are expected (and preferred) to be tall, tall women are considered more of a rare sight. However, I'm "only" 178cm, so technically that's not TOO tall, so I'm bombarded by comments and questions as well, but not as frequently. Lucky me.
200 cm. Same as me. Since I am not thin as Logan, people don't believe me with picture, but once they met me, it's the same kind of questions, about "really", "basketball" and "weather".
@Hannah Hollowell 200 cm = 6 feet and 6.740 inches
How tall is that in inches???
I beat you by a cm. XD And we are tall, but not that tall.
Then we are at the same heights *high five*
My husband is 6'6", he gets asked the same questions. I'm 5'4", people stare at him quite a lot, especially children and people who are on drugs (at a music festival).
We have the same height! I'm a 178 cm girl and also an asian. Idk perhaps I would be an ordinary girl in america or europe because there are so many tall girls there. But here, in Indonesia, I always attract people's attention whenever I go hahaha
My fiancé is 6' 4", and I'm 4' 10". We always get stares when we're out together! :P It's a good way to meet new people actually!
In high school, senior year, my 6'2 started dating a freshman who was just under 5ft. Whenever they walked around campus holding hands, it looked like a dad taking his 10 yr old daughter to school... It didn't get ridiculous until he knocked her up... Imagine a girl who looked 12 yrs old at best, cuddling with a 20 something ex football player gone soft... In reality, she was 14, he was 18, so still illegal but a little less disturbing.

Passing out rude comebacks is no better than the person asking the questions. Logan better print a boat load of business cards. People asking him how tall he is, will NEVER stop. - I'm a tiny gal, and I've always loved it when people are interested enough in me to engage in a conversation. It often has been the "ice breaker" for somebody who wants to know more about me.
You don't know how annoying it is! Most people think it's just fine to take the pee! They wouldn't ask a fat person what they weighed so why should us tall people not retort rudely?
She's explaining that she also get's questions about her height, so why do you respond with "you don't know how annoying it is"?... Just because she is short instead of tall questions can't be annoying, it that what you're saying? She chooses to look at the bright side of the questions, she's a positive person (unlike your comment).
But isn't that because being fat is viewed as a negative trait whereas being tall is mainly seen as interesting or even a positive trait? Saying that though I know that any time someone is asked the same question over and over again it's going to get annoying no matter what the intentions behind it are!
I'm short, & never got asked questions as much as my ex who was 6'8" did. Sometimes ppl would literally just stare, it's really quite rude.
It's because there's an association that tall is desirable, and short isn't as much. Though that's quickly changing as the all bodies are perfect acceptance movement is coming around, but that thought it still subconciously in people's minds, so they act accordingly. I'm short too btw,.
So you really like having the very first interation be "Holy cow, you really ARE short! How short are you? So, like, do sleep in a doll's bed??" - because that gets old really fast
