It isn’t easy when your physique doesn’t fit into the societal norms. For very tall individuals, the world will continually look like an obstacle course filled with objects to bang heads on. It’s often said that Planet Earth is a small world. So people whose height is a bit higher than the average will gladly confirm it’s true as the hitting of heads on ceilings, feeling discomfort on flights and rides, and feeling unrelaxed while taking a bath remains inevitable. 

But being tall can also be a definite advantage. You can see at concerts and reach for things up high on the shelf in stores. Either way, both short and tall individuals have to compromise on things, but compiled here are some of the things only tall people have to deal with. Here are a bunch of photos of how these people manage to live in our world, and it turned out it’s not as simple as you imagined. Take a look!

Short people do have their struggles to cry about, especially as being tall is everything. But even tall people do have their struggles, and it’s evident through these hilarious photos. Short people wish to become taller, but tall people desperately want to become a bit shorter. Being the actual definition of too much of a good thing is a bad thing, tall height can significantly interfere with daily living.

Tall people have problems, and a subreddit group r/TallPeopleProblems has been dedicated to sharing the problems. The group, which features tall people kneeling to use the ATM to tall people folding themselves to fit into an airplane seat, has proven that they don’t have it all easy as short people think.

A few of these photos shows that being tall can be quite a fascinating case. Human height has been steadily increasing over the past two centuries, and it’s associated with health and nutrition. Between the years 1896 and 1996, the European and Central Asian Men were recognized as the most massive gains in height, overtaking North American men.

While height is, of course, the desired trait for many as well as a requirement for some professions, these people's struggles would surely make you think twice about wishing to become taller. We hope you enjoyed our compilation.
