Short Dudes

I'm 5'8-5'9 and the seat belt has never bothered me. I think you just need to adjust your seat properly. ...and since when is 5'7 short? Do you work in

...and since when is 5'7 short? Do you work in the WNBA?

Lol!!! 5'7" ain't exactly tall (average for men is 5'10"), but then again I'm 6'3"...

OP, I think you just need to adjust your seat height

It's not particularly short (also 5'7" here), but it depends who you're around too.

When I was traveling through Europe over the summer, I passed through Amsterdam. Good god -- nearly everyone was of Brobdingnagian stature

Even most of the women were over 6' tall

I felt like a hobbit among ents

LOL!

Cool, I will try and raise the seat a little more than I already have.

I know a few people shorter than me, but I always have considered myself short. I could care less though. You don't need to be tall to make a living in IT! :P

Thanks for the input everyone!

^You felt like a hobbit because you were faded (as one should be there)

That's because they all have high heels on over there! Don't feel bad man. Just be careful don't get stepped by the women over there.

I am 5'8" and never had anybody called me short. 5'7" is not "short dudes". Lol

No such luck -- this was just making my way through the airport

Descendants of vikings -- no wonder the rest of Europe was terrified
