so this guy has had leg lengthening surgery he's gone from five foot five to six foot Legend but the truth is why did he feel he needed to do that oh I'm surprised you need to ask have you ever gone internet dating and selected a height no no and I'll tell you why because I'm five foot one so I don't care how tall my man is as long as he taller than me okay so there isn't as long as five foot one to find a man taller than you but if you ask the average female
like what's what's the ideal height they'll they'll be starting at 5 10 which is taller than average significantly not anymore is it does that change the average height was five eight when I looked well last looked which is a long time ago when you were 10 no not there for a 10 year old we'll find out what the average height is for a man average height male UK I think it's 5 10. so in the UK the average height for an adult male is five foot ten the interesting Dynamic here is the average height of
a man is five foot nine and the average woman does not fight find a five foot nine man attractive that's kind of tragic if you're the average man kite is a is a mate it's one of the big red lines that that men face in terms of trying to find a partner which is if you're five for five it's harder because especially with the digital shopping that people do you just rule out basically people get ruled out yeah quite quickly when you can filter you can and you can on apps now you can filter by
height and all sorts of other things depending on well yeah yeah you can yeah so it becomes really obvious that is there something you can control it's very hard it's hard to do to correct some of the things but you can correct height it's brutal I mean that operation is look see the most popular video on his channel [Music] it's brutal and he's he's sweet and beautiful and kind of hot already [Music] even without the Legacy surgery but the point is he's gone to this extreme and this is a big extreme to be taller I
think height is a huge part of what gives men status if you think about how people work there's this element of speed in terms of assessing people is this man competent and I don't know what the other words would be but there's something around well masculine to a degree yeah yeah yeah I understand that so you know if someone's six foot five really Stacks they have a certain presence that you that gives them status and power there yeah I understand that I understand that and on the other end of the spectrum is the exact opposite
if you're shriveled and small and weedy and and five four foot eleven you have a different presence we always get into the same issue of like well everyone should feel comfortable we should you shouldn't judge people by how they look which I totally subscribe to but the truth is you also have an animal Instinct that feels different when you're with someone who has a huge presence and somebody has a small smaller physical form and that's a big part of what what men rely on in terms of having presence as your height some people have put
in the comments all of that just to put six foot on his Tinder profile let him miss a stare and it's a wrap um but also so you've got those types of comments but there's also lots of people commenting asking where they can get this done genuine comments asking where they can get that I can imagine yeah it's not people don't realize you you've always been able to do this for years I actually I'll let you into so I just came to my mind there was a point because my mom's really short and you're saying
yeah well my dad's six foot okay people more slightly more than that so um she had she she was worried at various stages that I was going to be five foot okay right I was at size 11 feet so that was that that was if she was saying well that's a new favor but I remember her mentioning the surgery was like well don't worry if you if you get stuck at five foot we you can always have that operation oh wow because she was she was into the hype thing yeah yeah yeah like I think
for older Generations as well though like it's they subscribe to that traditional masculinity traditional femininity thing a lot more so for her she was probably thinking oh I don't want my son to be not as successful in all areas of his life because he's only five foot yeah absolutely and it is it is a potential way that you could be held back if if even just because someone tells you that you're held back because you're sure I've seen I've seen it hold men back so friends of mine who are male I've seen them be held
back because they're high or at least they think that it's holding them back yeah and there's a large part is about that once the story is in your head that you are being held back by it then you almost have to solve it otherwise you oh actually how bad by it but that's true with a lot of these things so I Googled the side effects and it's awful things so nerve damage muscle damage as a result to like potentially to get that result yeah I can imagine trying to stretch trying to walk again you have
to learn how to walk again so I'm intrigued by why what your was brought this to your attention like why you feel you must feel slightly uncomfortable with it all like you've mentioned he's got these other things going for him but then he's had this what is it that you think is potentially unhealthy about this I just I just think it's so extreme it's so extreme just to be taller and I mean he's not just a little bit taller he's gone he's gone from five foot five to six foot but also in my like there
is other limbs not going to be out of proportion right because like when you're a small person you often have like I have tiny hands I have you know my arms are also like not long as some another woman who is five at seven so are his arms now got not gonna be out for it's stuff like that that just I think this is so gone to the extreme and he seems so happy and sweet and attractive even without being six foot I just don't know I don't know if it's worth it obviously for him
it must be to go to that extreme but yeah I think at the bottom of this is that whole value structure within his value structure it's clearly worth it he wouldn't do it he looks happy he's smiling after his surgery it's hard to understand but particularly as a as a shorter end of the spectrum female who doesn't need anyone taller than he is before this it does seem like a lot of effort for a risk for nothing but that won't be his equation I can understand that being a very annoying Dynamic being shorter than your
peer group and and wanting to solve it seeing a way out of it and then just solving it I mean it's the same reason I mean all surgery seems quite extreme if you if you think about it like having a surgical nose job is a quite a brutal procedure to have to remove a tiny little bump that most people don't even notice or think about yeah you don't have to learn how to walk again do you think more stuff will like this will keep happening because this is obviously Exposed on Tick Tock now and it
also looks like he's in he's happy he did it so in theory this is a good advertisement for this oh yeah I'm sure that's a great outfit you know so do you think more this will become more popular well actually one of the things I was thinking as we're leading into the show is I think there is a perception amongst the younger people that surgery is a quick fix yeah but that is not a quick fix like that you know I don't know if you have do you have did you ever have braces I didn't
so I I criticize my teeth well you didn't criticize them but you said there could be some tweaks you asked you asked you asked me and I said yes when I got braces I remember thinking I'm getting I'm getting straight teeth um I didn't think I was getting nine months of pain yeah and then semi-straight teeth yes yes so but anyway so that but there is there is that when you first go into it you have that simplistic oh I can get like I'd like with my mom mentioning it you know I'll have this quick
operation and I'll just be tall um at least he's showing all the rehab and the difficult side of it because probably what you'd get on the Instagram is just a before and after with without the nine months of yeah physiotherapy so there's definitely something that can happen in the minds of people where it's oversimplified they see the result and not the process so let us know what you think in the comments and make sure to like And subscribe if you want to see more videos like this [Music] [Music]
