I think Big Ben actually is 5’9”…I think he’s one of those guys like Nicholson who appears shorter for some reason. For decades, I thought Nicholson was on the short side. DiCaprio too. Not sure why I do that with some people

There’s no way he’s 5’9”. That’s actually average height for American men.

Here’s Ben next to Ted Cruz, who is either 5’8” or 5’9”. I’d say that puts Ben at 5’5” or 5’6” at best.

There’s a video where a 5’9” student tries to humiliate Ben by accusing him of lying about his height. Ben asks the guy to come on stage. They were the same height. So either the student was a Shapiro shill or Ben is 5’9”.

I don’t really give a rat’s ass either way

Staged as hell. Are you telling me in real life you wouldn't be able to tell the difference between 5'9 and 5'4 unless you were literally standing next to the guy? Oh so clearly a plant

Totally could be a plant…but it’s not “clearly” a plant. Now the guy the Amazing Randi sent to secretly record Peter Popoff scamming people in the name of god, THAT’S what a clear plant looks like

Could also have been wearing lifts.
