As any tall person would agree, there are a lot of tall people problems out there. As a memento of our torment, I believe us worthy of our very own Tall People Problems poster. I commissioned a talented illustrator (over 2m (6’7″) tall himself so he can relate) to do the drawings that you all voted to be the biggest tall people problems.
Legroom on buses, planes, trains
The Question: “Wow you’re tall, how tall are you?”
Sinks and counters are too low
Slouching for social reasons and to hear better
Desks, chairs, furniture are too small
Bad headroom, legroom, visibility in cars
Bathtubs too small
Bad jokes: “How’s the weather up there?”
Feet hanging off the bed
Blocking other people’s view
Always got to be in the back for photos
Hugs are awkward
Seeing over the bathroom stall
Can’t see your face in the mirror
Back pain
Having to order stuff online
Having to duck for tree branches
Walk faster than others with your long legs
Too easily spotted in a crowd
Get light headed when you stand up
Trouble finding shoes
Hitting your head on doorways
Can’t stretch out on couches
Spider webs in the face
Being asked to grab stuff all the time
Getting mauled by umbrellas
Accidental footsies
Shovels and other tools too short
Cold extremities (fingers)
Deep end of the pool isn’t deep

LOL! This his hilarious. I have had all of these issues, sometimes multiple at a single time; e.g. back pain and frozen finger tips working my short snow shovel. And the spiderwebs, right on the nose. Keep it up!
How about hand/wrist in the ceiling fan when putting on a shirt.
About knocked myself out first time I got in my mom’s 2018 Hyundai Elantra; still forget to duck far enough when getting in from time to time.
Rear-view mirror in car just blocks out half the windshield
Baseball caps block vision above the eyebrows, leading to far more head injuries from low-hanging signs/doorframes/tree branches
