Ah ha ha. I too am intimidated by people who are an inch taller than me! One would think Jared would be relieved to have somebody he could talk to whom he doesn't have to stoop to look in the eye. They could share shoes! Discuss the hardships of their tallness where door lintels are concerned! Clearly Abraham/Jared is the secret subtextual romance of the story!!

(I just went and looked up Andre the Giant for comparison, and he was 7'4" and 540 lb.)
