I was told that people will grow to be either 5' 11" or 6' 1", but never exactly 6'. Is this true, or just a myth?

False. Absolutely false. That's why it's a myth. It's not based in anything factual.

Who told you that? It kinda sounds like the dogwood legend--dogwoods never get tall because they were the wood that was used for the cross to crucify Jesus. But my parents have one in their backyard that's like 40 feet tall. And I've heard the same legend about other trees being used for the cross. It's just a myth--an odd one, I'll give you that.

Puff puff pass you smoke it all to yourself and you lose conscious contact with reality. Why has there not been a special about 6 tall being the golden height or some hyped up bull along those lines. What is your source which one of your half-baked friend saw god and measured him.

Arghhhh!
Let's use a little common sense here. No matter how tall Jesus was (and no one today has any idea how tall he was) in His day, things were not measured in feet. or inches. or pounds. or meters. The cubit was the unit of linear measure. Therefore he could not have been six feet tall.
PS: I have three sons who are precisely six feet tall. Does that mean they are figments of my imagination?

Jesus was SHORT, just like everybody else back then. If he didn't blend in, Judas wouldn't have had to kiss him on the cheek to show the guards which one he was. Judas just would have to say, "That's him the one that is a foot and a half tall than everybody else and looks like Ted Nugent."

He was 18 cubits high. That's around 14 smurf apples.
