I am 6' 4"... so yes, I fall into the other end of the spectrum. Hell, I know it annoys the hell out of me every time I have to talk to someone taller than myself... and that is rare. I'm assumming you all are more used to that though.
It is good to hear that a majority of you don't have an "axe to grind" regarding this though!

*shrug* I'm 6'1" and I personally don't like being as tall as I am. Luckly, I've stayed this height for some time now so I guess this is where I'll be.
However, when it comes to women, I've always been attracted to the shorter girls. Its always been a turn off when I see a 7 foot tall women

Years ago my brother and I were fighting at the Long Beach Convention Center for a Martial Arts Intl. Championship. Jean Claude Van Damme was there walking around all pretend bad a$$. Black Belt magazine looked into his "titles" in Europe yeah . He is a little runt, my brother asked him if he forgot to wear his shoe lifts that day, he stopped and gave us the Van Damme . He told him to get into the ring and prove himself without his stunt double. No reponse, he left shortly after. A ton of people laughed their butts off over that.

I'm 5'8" so I guess I'm a midget. I've dated girls up to 6'2. I think it depends on your personality how badly you get short man syndrome. I'd say mine is mild if any. If money and expensive cars, though, are your benchmarks, then I have it bad according to that.

Most celebrities learned a LONG time ago to walk away from idiots that try to get their goat.
If your brother wasn't such an idiot trying to be a badass, he'd have kept his own mouth shut. Sounds to me like your brother was the idiot and Van Damme did the right thing (walked away from a loudmouth, since he had nothing to prove anyways). A conflict of egos instead of brains, apparently...
Do you (and your bro) always suggest fighting as a means to prove who is the proverbial "best man"?

Congratulations - you kept a celebrity from kicking your butt.
