Hi all,
Long time no see hey!
Growing up, my armspan was always about the same length as my body height, which i beleive is the same for most people.
I demonstrated this to someone the other by placing my fingertips on the floor and stretched my other hand up a doorframe, then i stood up against the doorframe leaving my upper fingertips where they were.
I was shocked to discover my arm span is about 6" longer than my height!
I kited for about 4 years so, I joked that kitesurfing must've stretched my arms, but now i can't stop thinking that.
Could we put this dumb theory to rest, could people check their relative measurements and let me know if i'm a freak or not.
It's currently my best party trick.
do you drag your knuckles when you walk?
Do you have a particularly slopey forehead?
And lastly do you have a penchant for bananas?
you may just be the missing link!
Your spine is compressing as you get older making you shorter. Check your height compared to when you were 25. Are you shorter now?
