redblooded Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 That guy is super tall, which is weird because I watched this doc on N. Korea last week and they showed these soccer games between North Korean defectors living in Seoul and native South Koreans. The South Koreans were l something like 3-4 inches taller due to diet alone...I guess he's tall for other reasons though. He was probably a lucky one that got fed outside of the military. It's half funny, because it's a joke, and the other half because it's true that they are short because they are Mal-nourished (look at the clothes our ancestors were wearing 100 years ago). Okay, this won't be politically correct at all, fair warning. My own curiosity has me asking, just how short were the Asian people during my ancestor's ages? We already know they are overall small in stature (basketball players not withstanding) now, but if you've see a historical site for 19th century white people they were all horribly short and yet they thought asians were short too, so maybe that's where this "myth" came into being. Or maybe they were midgets. Link to comment
