Re: If you don't understand how big NBA players are...
It's common knowledge that movie stars and wrestlers have HUGELY exaggerated heights. WAY more than NBA player heights are exaggerated.
The Rock was supposed to be 6-5 or 6-4 1/2 in WWE and he is supposed to be 6-3 according to Hollywood.
I saw him before and he looked about 5-11 or 6-0 and nothing more.

as you can see in that photo, he gives a little bit to barkley, who's 6-6. Makes him 6-3/4 roughly.

The photos of Arnold Schwarzenegger with Wilt Chamberlain are one of the best examples of this.
Arnold was a really big guy. In his book, he says he was 6'2", 250 at his peak when he was a bodybuilder. Probably 15-20 pounds less by the time of Conan The Destroyer when those pictures were taken, but it's still incredible how small he looks next to Wilt and Andre The Giant.
5'8" isn't a midget, it's about average.
Arnold is in no way in hell close to 6-2. Get real.

No way in hell. I saw the Rock before and I was much taller than him. He's like 6 feet at most.

I don't give a damn what you believe. But I am 6-2 or 6-2 1/2 (barefoot) and when I saw The Rock, it seemed liked I was 2-3 inches taller than him.

Why exactly would I take your word for it? I'd be surprised if he wasn't at least close to 6'2" when he was a bodybuilder. Oh, and by the way, looked up the Rock's college football listing, he was listed at 6'5". Even though he's clearly not that tall, you expect me to believe his football listing was exaggerated by 5-6 inches? You're the one who needs to get real.
