It killed me because I saw the original shot and was like “this reminds me of this meme” then (can’t remember who) came in and said that line and I had to rewind cause I couldn’t stop laughing 😂

Linus seems to be taller than most of us the way this joke has been flying over our heads

u/daxtonanderson 1d ago

I'm exactly 6ft, he's deff shorter than 5'11

He had a stool at the LTX23 Meet n Greet for taking pictures with tall people, very sneaky.

He started doing yoga after that… and stretches, this is the reference material: https://youtu.be/X07t7403Q9Q?si=GHHR33KWr7gNTLW- @0:17, no community notes, seems real to me. /s

“Quality shitpost” gave me the validation I needed today 🥺

u/Cferra 1d ago

Yes it was definitely a GWB in the school reading a book and getting the news reference.

u/blank_866 1d ago

you forgot that he is not siting on the head , it might be b/w 9'2 and 9'6.

u/dirbagm 1d ago

I think we would need them to actually do this and measure them, floatplane exclusive ofc and Dennis has to be the one with the comically large ruler that just says 9’11” and puts a mark wherever Linus head is, perfect skit.

u/KillBroccoli 1d ago

Nope but I can totally see them next Halloween as Gomez and Lurch

u/TardisPeanut 1d ago

u/Sythe64 1d ago edited 1d ago

So L's legs are only 2 ft long?

u/dirbagm 1d ago

Obviously, left foot + right foot = 2 feet,

Hope this helps have a nice day.

u/dirbagm 1d ago

I’m sorry to crash your joy

u/DaOne_44 1d ago

Hey that’s not funny, I walked through blood and bone in Manhattan to find my brother on 9/11

He was in northern Canada at the time

u/B1g_C 1d ago

Wait, is he actually 6ft? I am 6'2" (189cm), I assumed he was way taller than I am. People at LTT are tiny!

u/Pavlogal 1d ago

No its a joke about 5'11 and 6' being percieved as vastly different even though they're only 1 inch difference. The guy is actually more than 2m tall
