Last year I went to the Netherlands for a trip, in Groningen, and I was so shocked in terms of how tall Dutch people are especially the young people. I’m 182 cm, and I felt really average, and the amount of above 6 ft 2 guys walking about on the streets was mind blowing to be honest. I even felt a bit below average when I played soccer/football amongst the young people there who all seem to be 6 ft 1 lol. Truly mind blowing coming from the UK where I generally feel tall. Immediately when I came back to the U.K., I noticed a huge difference.
Netherlands is only 1 hour away by plane, yet the difference in terms of height is shocking to be honest. I’ve been to Germany, but it’s nothing like the Netherlands. What are they eating over there? What’s their secret ingredients that made Dutch people so tall?
