You are wrong bro. Standing on one leg can increase your height. I agree with Elruditor on this one. He is an expert in tallness.

Most people standing on 2 legs will keep them slightly apart for balance and to give their balls space to breathe. . . . creating an acute angle between their two feet and the ground.

Whereas standing on one leg keeps you straight, forming a perfect right angle between your feet and the ground.

An shorter adjacent side will still reach the same height as a longer hypotenuse.

In the picture below, line b is shorter than the two outside lines 13 but achieves the same height. Although exaggerated, it shows why standing on one leg makes you taller than two legs slightly akimbo. Pythagoras can tell you the rest.

You will make airmack cry oh. He is trying to redeem himself. All these analyses will burst his brain.

I checked online to see if there were actually some foolish people that believe that standing on one leg adds to one's height. Luckily an idiot did a video on it on youtube, i laughed when he didn't even raise the second leg off the ground completely. I had to check comments and could see your type of mumus validating it. However one guy pointed out the foolishness of the uploader and told him that not in this world would standing correctly on a leg while the other is off the ground, will the height be increased. Not everyone will be foolish.

On a norms, you should have disappeared from this thread for spewing that out. I know many would have done that 'wall test' i suggested and realised as usual, you came with a foolish view.

It's a fvcking disgrace.

Juxtapose whatever you are saying with the picture of Giroud you provided and hide your head in shame.

If eruditor had said that Giroud stood on his toe, he would have got a point. Don't work a solution for him.

The fact is, if you stand correctly on a leg, it will never add to your height. That belief should only be for the likes of eruditor. It's senseless.

LOL.

I wish you know how ignorant you sound. I am laughing my butt off here.

I am sure you don't know that raising one of your legs, inclines the hips, lifts the back and makes one "appear" taller.

Unless you stand on your toe.

Try and do it against the wall and mark the level of your shoulder against the wall. Repeat same on both legs and tell me if there's any difference.

Rubbish.

Just Google "does standing on one leg make me appear taller?" And see what shows up.

Some people have measured themselves 1 full inch taller by standing on one leg.

I told you, stop arguing about things you don't know.

I'm not sure you are mentally ok.

How does standing on one leg increase one's height? I need to stop conversing with you at this point. You are terrible.

I am sure you don't know but it does augment one's appearance heightwise.

But then, there are a lot of things you don't know and sadly, it is those things you actually like to argue about.

We could use that excuse but it's too easy. grin
Late in the game, Jordan Poole and Damion Lee cost us the game.

I wouldn't lie. I was reminded of how Steph scares the opponent. The dude is gravity on his own. It gets worse if Klay was around but what we heard was that we wouldn't have made the playoffs with Steph, Klay and Draymond, D-Lo. grin

Tough loss but I don't mind taking more losses. Let's get that lottery pick.

I'm not happy with Draymond one bit. Dude on court didn't impress me one bit this season. He has gotten paid big time and has a new deal. I just hope he would improve his game especially on offence and be a more mature leader. If not, I wouldn't mind shipping him with the lottery pick if we can get Giannis. Probably get Patrick Beverly since we'll need some kind of irritant. grin grin

I did not want to bash Damien Lee especially when he hit a lot of huge 3s in the game. But blowing those free throws that would have brought it to within 2 and then missing those open 3s before fouling.....annoyed me.

Poole just kept throwing the ball away and was not shooting.

The less said about Draymond, the better. Although, he seems to step up during the playoffs.

Really tough. Too many blown layups and free throws. Chef is still rusty from the 3 but people see how much easier it was for others to make buckets because of the attention he was getting. The only way from here is up.

How is Cahill clearly taller than Giroud in the picture attached?

You are the one dancing palongo like a village drunkard, from Giroud being 1.90m to 1.91m to subsequently posting an unknown fansite link that tagged him at 1.92m. That's why i said earlier that you kept on dribbling yourself. Even raumdeuter abandoned you like a bad project, once he saw what transfermarkt posted.

You are terribly confused but i don't know if it was caused by the loss of your hand due to Liverpool winning the epl or the uncertainty surrounding Giroud's height.


LOL, your fellow CFC fan showed you a picture you lied that Giroud was bent there but then brought a picture with him standing on one leg to make a case. There is one with the 2 players standing straight. People with eyes can see who is clearly taller.

You who thought that after 5'9" is 6'0" is telling me I said 190-191cm. You don't know that many people are taller right after getting up from bed in the morning (called peak height) and later in the day they drop slightly. I was essentially saying Giroud's peak height is 191cm (making him a strong 6'3" at his peak). The strongest value of 6'3" is 192 cm.

That fansite could be giving them shoe height. It is irrelevant. The main koko is they said Cahill is taller. And there is evidence below to buttress it.

Meanwhile, between Giroud and VVD many sites have the former at as low as 190 but consistently you will not find one site where VVD is less than 193 cm. 100% sure you don't know as well, but 1 inch is 2.54cm. So even based on their shortest heights (VVD is still more than an inch taller).

You referred me to one unofficial chelsealatestnews site that put Giroud at 1.92m, but rejected official Chelsea fc website that put him at 1.93m. You are worse than Dayo.

I have no time to debunk all the trash you typed, so i only deflated that lie that Cahill is clearly taller than Giroud.

Still waiting for a sensible post from you that confirms VVD being taller than Giroud. For now you are just dribbling yourself.


The bottom line about that link is that "the fans" that have seen them decided who was taller and it was corroborated by the picture below where both of them are standing fully straight.

Why would I waste my time proving VVD to you when you are already dancing palongo because you know that if Cahill is taller than Giroud, that same Giroud cannot be VVDs height.

As a rule of thumb, having sense and knowing what is sensible go hand in hand.

Yea, I will bring a picture of VVD and Giroud standing together because they are teammates or friends who hang out often and have a lot of pictures with themselves.

Griezmann is miles better than Dembele and he is not a poacher

I agree with this.

I don't know where people saw Dembele being this player they are talking about. He showed signs in Dortmund admittedly. However, his poor attitude off the pitch, lack of football sense and injury records just messed up with his growth. He lowkey reminds me of Pepe in AFC. Good but unreliable.

Griezmann is not being used well. I insist. You can't shoehorn him to the wings and then complain. That guy at his peak was one chance one goal.

and kepa taller than rudiger??

Kepa is understandably insecure about his height. He stretches in pictures and sometimes is even seen standing on his toes to augment his height. David Luiz was fond of doing that. Hugo Lloris is another one.

You are just typing hundreds of words with no substance. Which evidence did you give that VVD is taller than Giroud?


Of course, it is with no substance. That Gary Cahill (clearly taller than Giroud) is listed as 6'4" on most websites when Giroud is the same 6'4"? That Fraser Forster (6'7" ) is barely taller than VVD? That Alisson (6'3" ) looks 2 inches shorter than VVD (in all their pictures).

Remember the 4 names I said were the intelligent CFC fans? They would not make this argument you are making. That is all I would say.

The people I know who lie about billed heights and weights very well are WWE.
But that eye test may not be reliable unless you see both players standing still without boots, side by side.

I am an optometrist and I can tell you that sight is very easy to fool. Creating illusions isn't difficult. Abraham is lean and Giroud is bigger, so Abraham may look taller but it may not be so, etc....

There are websites were heights are constructively discussed. Some people even use personal pictures of themselves with some of these "celebs" to make an argument. There are myriads of pictures to cross-check with.

See Tammy here clearly taller than Rudiger and even Zouma (a case can be made).

So Chelsea fc, his club, were wrong, but you that have never seen Giroud one on one, is right. grin

Also, Raumdeuter, someone is challenging our reliable transfermarkt site here o. grin

First, argumentum ad verecundiam is not evidence. I gave you evidence. Sports clubs lie a lot about such stats for different reasons. Charles Barkley purposely listed himself at 6'4" even though (and at age 55+) he is taller than 6'5" James Harden. Kevin Durant is 6'11" by all indications yet he admitted that he lied to the NBA that he was 6'9" just so he would not play center.

Second, eye test. According to Google and CFC website Giroud is taller than Tammy Abraham which is clearly not true.

Guys should learn how to analyse things. If you go to a good school the first thing they teach you about analysis is to question everything.

VVD is clearly taller than Klopp, has 2inches on Alisson, stands almost matching with Matip, slightly shorter than Fraser Forster and people are giving me Google to make an argument. Come on.

Meanwhile, Pogba (6'3") is slightly taller than Giroud in most of their pictures.

Giroud is 190cm at best 191cm and VVD is 195-196cm.
