I doubt people lie about their height besides what does it matter. Eye level with the knob is like 3 feet tall similar to the size of a garden gnome. Very improbable

Maybe they exaggerate like you are exaggerating about door knob height... seems universal

Guys he obviously didn't really meant that door knob height or did you mate? I guess that was said metaphorically.

I don't see why people would lie about their height. Being a Manlet isn't bad at all haha. And all it will do is **** up your height to weight ratio and make you appear smaller than you actually are... Just why?

People lie about their weight, height, lifts... You name it...
Insecurity maybe?"For the truly fortunate man, his body is a breathing image of self respect"

But i should suspect that a few people add an inch (not me!)
