Does not sound right - every knight's armor I have ever seen is built for smaller men - and they would have been the ones to live a "good" life.

Of course, some of these suits of armor only look small because they're not being worn. The 'give' in all of the joints can add up to a few more inches of height, when fully extended.

Also, some of the suits of armour on display are fancy ones that weren't really worn much. At least that's what I've read.
