Taller people are smarter: study

My father is only 5'6 and he is very smart! Maybe some shorter people are smarter 'cause they are making up for being short. :shrug:

I don't know where they get these weird studies and why they bother to publish them. It is not my experience that height has anything to do with intelligence. I know plenty of tall people who are dumber than hell, and short people who would blow your socks off because they're so smart.

In movies and TV, the dumb guy or the mentally retarded guy is ALWAYS enormous. Stereotypes don't come out of nowhere.

Only includes US and UK data sets, what happens when we throw our oriental buddies into the data? How about the tribal types in Africa? And what exactly is tall? Average height for males in the US is somewhere around 5'9" so anyone average or above would be smarter than those average or shorter? I think this is :bs: for proof I offer that Vince is a Hell of a lot smarter then JPC could ever hope to be. :biggrin:
