I will say that being the short size of tall 6’3” makes it easier.
He’s way to into himself to accomplish anything to make himself noteworthy.
Bruce Lee was 5’ 5”, Danny Devito is 5’ 0”, Napoleon was 5’6”, Martin Luther King was 5’7”, Mahatma Gandhi was 5’4”, Andrew Carnegie was 5’2”, Paul Simon is 5’3”, Pablo Picasso was 5’4”, Harry Houdini was 5’4”, Ludwig van Beethoven was 5’3”, Henri Toulouse-Lautrec was 4’11”, and the really impressive one was the most decorated soldier in the history of the US military, Audie Murphy, who was 5’5”. And there were many more.
I feel very sorry for a man that established his worth by his physical features. The old adage, “It’s not the size of the dog in the fight, but the size of the fight in the dog” escapes his limitations. Too bad for him.

He’d be a perfect match for my first wife. Same height, same attitude, same chip on the shoulder.
Wow, that fellow is putting the “ire” in Shire.
One of the comments at the Daily Mail: “It is a shame the rest of the lollipop guild wasn’t there to help him.”
There are those who think little of him.
Seems like the kind of anger that returns with a firearm.
Some short movie stars: Mickey Rooney, James Czgney and Edward G. Robinson.
He let his aligator mouth write a check his hummingbird ass couldn’t cash.
He’s not bad looking, but just short. Napoleon complex?
He does sound like Joe Pesci in
the video, but in GoodFellas it was
the taller Billy Batts who said
that line.
He keeps saying “you think that’s funny?” (short guy in bagel shop video)
‘What, you think that’s funny, I’m like a clown—I amuse you?’
You can make up for height by being charming, funny, caring, a good provider, and a rock of stability. But going through life as the Angry Dwarf isn't going to get you anywhere with the ladies.
Reminds me of the video of the short scrawny schoolboy in Australia, I think, who teased a taller, chubby classmate.Finally the taller one had enough so he grabs the little tough guy and body slams him. Little guy gets up and limps away.
Bunch of youtube videos with Koksal Baba, a Turkish guy less than four feet tall who takes no crap and slaps
and punches those bigger than him.
Pretty funny.He was a boxer.

When you were 18 years old if you could snap your fingers and magically make yourself 6’ tall would you do it? I am only 5’8” and I would have. I guess, like most young women, I’ll freely admit it that I am shallow. Guilty as charged. I had one really nice gal tell me to my face “I need a guy tall enough so I can where my stiletto heels” .....
LOL! Maybe I wouldn't have minded being a little taller (and magically richer too!), but not necessarily 6' tall. I'm pretty comfortable in my own skin.
I used to tell people I wouldn't mind being a little taller, but not if it meant I had to be tall and geeky!
Exactly - My comment was a response to the short guy’s tirade.
Thanks for your service, in the military and a firefighter. One can’t always judge toughness based on size.
I used to wish that I was super tall like a supermodel. Now I actually enjoy being petite. It makes me feel more feminine.
The only time I don’t like it is when I have to buy girls pants because most adult pants are too long and I also have to buy children’s shoes. Reaching high shelves in stores is also aggravating.
My older sister is 5’9 but her height came from my 6’2 dad. My mom is 5 feet, the same as your wife.
You are correct that height ( or lack of) isn’t important; It’s personality and character.
