The Tall Book: A Celebration of Life from on High

May 9, 2018 By Art of Tall Filed Under: Books

tall-book-review

A few months ago I got myself a copy of The Tall Book: A Celebration of Life from on High. How could I not. Books about height are rare. I've been tall my entire life and finally someone (i.e. Arianne Cohen, 6'3") has written a book about being tall. In the words of Arianne: When there's no book about your topic, it's like your whole issue doesn't exist. My … [Read more...]

Being Tall is the Ultimate Ice Breaker

September 13, 2017 By Art of Tall Filed Under: Confidence

ice-breaker

Being tall is the ultimate ice breaker. I’ve been thinking about this a lot and the more I think about it the more it makes sense. Before you stop reading and think I'm crazy hear me out. I know that being asked ‘how’s the weather up there?’ all the time is frustrating. I get it a lot too. However, what if it’s not as bad as it seems? Have you ever thought … [Read more...]

types-of-people

Being tall we stand out wherever we go - this is a fact of life; one that will not change. We encounter many people throughout the day and what's interesting is that different 'types' of people react differently to our height. In today's blog post I outline the 5 most common types of people that every tall person meets, what a typical interaction with each of these people is … [Read more...]

Body Mass Index Alternatives for Tall People

July 24, 2016 By Art of Tall Filed Under: Tall Health

body-mass-index-calculator

The Body Mass Index (BMI) is a simple screening tool you can use to determine if your weight is putting you at risk of health problems such as heart disease or diabetes. It’s an attempt to quantify the amount of tissue mass (muscle, fat and bone) you have and then categorise you as either underweight, normal weight, overweight or obese. The premise of BMI is very simple. First … [Read more...]

Does Our Height Define Who We Are?

June 20, 2016 By Art of Tall Filed Under: Psychology

height-define-identity

I believe that (to a degree) our height has helped define and shape our personality and level of self-esteem. Obviously there are other factors at play in helping define who we are but this article will just focus on height. From an early age we were always one of the tallest kids in school. Consequently we'd have to put up with being called names such as "giraffe" or "giant", … [Read more...]

Do You Make Excuses For Your Height?

May 1, 2016 By Art of Tall Filed Under: Psychology

Do you ever blame your height and make excuses for why you can’t do something? I’ve been guilty of this in the past but now I catch myself about to do it and stop myself. I’ve heard people say (or write in forums) things like: “I would love to do [insert activity] but I think I’m too tall for that”. “I can’t do [insert action], it’s too hard with my height”. “I … [Read more...]

Waliszko shows yet again that there exists a positive correlation between height and education.

The Correlation Between Height And Education

March 28, 2016 By Art of Tall Filed Under: Psychology

Tall people, here is another reason to celebrate: in a study titled "Body height and upward social mobility" by T. Bielicki and J. Charzewski, the authors show that there exists a positive correlation between height and education. The results show that in a significant number of sibling pairs, the taller sibling grows up to achieve a higher level of education.
