It's best not to be too tall

Problems with being tall.

The further away from the earth's surface, the lower the oxygen tension. This means that the taller you are, the less oxygen is available for the brain.
Time travels faster the further from a gravitational centre you are. You might expect your brain to age faster (risk of dementia).
There is a greater risk of your feet getting cold at night.
If you fall, there is a greater risk of a significant head injury.

Benefits of being tall.

You can see over crowds at Glastonbury.
You can get served more easily in a bar.
