And now to scale:
- Damn his junk is at eye level while standing.
  
  I have a very short friend who is into very tall (by my standards, anyway) men.
  This thought occurs to me every time she introduces me to or shows me a picture of her newest love interest.
  
  Yao Ming: 😉😏
- This is exactly what I wanted to see thank you
- Amazing work, lol
- The perfect size..... 👀

Kevin Hart -> 5’2” / 158 cm
The Rock -> 6’4” / 193 cm
Shaq -> 7’1” / 216 cm
Yao Ming -> 7’6” / 229 cm
Shame that Voyager doesn’t appear to have a way to input a clean table in a comment.
- No markdown tables? :(
  Let me test
  Col1 Col2
  
  val1 val2
  Edit: It works but the text and background are both black??
  
  It's displays correctly for me in Boost.
  
  NAME HEIGHT (ft) HEIGHT (cm)
  
  Kevin Hart 5’2” 158 cm
  The Rock 6’4” 193 cm
  Shaq 7’1” 216 cm
  Yao Ming 7’6” 229 cm
  How’d I do? L
  
  Text is white for me (voyager beta 443 and 445)
  
  Looks fine on Jerboa
  
  Shows okay for me using the Connect client in dark mode. White foreground, black background.
  
  How'd you do that? I'm on Voyager, but it doesn't seem to be in my list of markup shortcuts
- Always reminded of this hilarious clip whenever the heights of Kevin Hart and The Rock are mentioned:

- Hmm..
  Well now I know exactly how I compare to all of these men in a very literal sort of way, since I’m apparently the exact same height as Kevin Hart. Tho I am a bit surprised that the first person I dated is the same height as the rock. He looks a lot bigger.
  So that’s fun! Thanks for providing that info :)

I knew Ming was a big guy, but not that big wow. Dude towers over Shaq.
- I saw him in person once when I worked in a mall. Poor guy has to duck to avoid ceiling fixtures.
  
  I wonder how many times he's walked into a spinning ceiling fan.
- I also didn't realize the height difference. I knew Ming was taller but I didn't think it was by THAT much.

well, no, at some point, there is no bigger fish, you've found the biggest fish, you are the biggest fish, congratulations, all the other fish are ashamed
- Eventually the fish would be so large it would collapse into a singularity, arguably being fish no longer
- Falling down an MC Escher stairway and passing a portrait of Kevin Hart towering over Yao Ming.

I love how everyone involved looks positively delighted to stand with a taller person, except for Kevin Hart.
- Here's an older pic with Shaq and Hart, he seems delighted
  
  I mean it's probably Shaq, but there's no way to know for sure...
  
  It's like a father and his 8 year old son.
  
  I hope Shaq has a matching picture of his smiling face and an arm around someone but we can only see the top of his head
- For the others, it doesn't happen that often, so it's interesting when it does.
  For Kevin Hart, it's just his reality.
- Kevin Hart and Dwayne the Johnson always play this bit in front of the camera and pretend that they don’t like each other.
  
  Dwayne the Johnson
  I'd really rather not think about Dwayne's johnson.
- Cause The Rock told him they're going to shoot in jungle again and Kevin isn't too happy about that.

Ok but why did they leave Godzilla off the last panel?
- That's just Ming's left elbow.

So Hart could blow Ming without braking a perfect posture.
- By my very scientific calculations... Almost.

  I refute your science and insert my fantasy.
  Shaq is leaning.
- Only if Yao's dick is 2' long.
  
  This seems like a legit question for science though.... Like I assume there is some proportionality?
  
  It might be. :shrug:

None as tall as Grant

Shaq flicking Vs like a filthy Gallagher.

That's not a fish

I only recognize Dwayne, who are the others?
- Kevin Hart, Shaq, and Yao Ming
  
  There has to be at least one person shorter than Kevin Hart

Starting at Kevin Hart feels like cheating.
