      Unless you have a passion for cramped supercars or exceed the height of most door frames… why? The ability to reach the top shelf and things placed at height is just so invaluable. And provided you take care of them, knees and hips still allow you to rummage through things on the down low.

      Now, if you’re so tall that you routinely crack your forehead on door frames… yeah. I could see why. But then the question becomes, what is affecting your coordination such that it prevents you from earning millions by throwing an orange ball through a netted hoop?

      How much have you got spare?

      Not for me, though, just interested. I’m 6’2" and it’s about perfect I think, probably wouldn’t swap it for any other height. I’m tall enough to reach the top shelves of pretty much everything, hit the cancel button on our smoke alarm, see over people at gigs and things, but not so tall that I have problems with fitting into things too often.
