No "controversy. You invoked the the Tolkien Canons! The root of Tolkien magic. I merely stated my height and expressed knowledge!
you said
5'0"
Canon-verse Thorin Oakenshield is taller than I am.
In the Tolkien Canons that means you have Dwarf magic blood in you. Of the Dwarf king.

So there was a slight misunderstanding of intent, I have contacted you Cybotron to explain my thought process of the 'controversy' your producer was at one time embroiled in. My apologies.
Out of all the races of Tolkien I do love the dwarves the best
so this is no issue for me.

I'm 5'6", which is the absolute worst height range to be in if you want to be a Disney character. All the best ones are either super petite or mega tall.

There's not a specific height you have to be in general, but every character has a certain height you have to be to play them, generally a range of a few inches. When you get hired at Disney to perform, the first thing they do is measure you and get a list of every character whose range covers your height. Some characters, like Goofy, you have to be very tall to play. My favorite characters, like Stitch and Robin Hood, cap out at around five feet.

We are the same height, I just get best mate to get stuff down for me, since I live with my best friend and his elderly father.

I'll, like, climb on a chair, a table on top of the chair, a stepstool on top of the table, and the shoulders of a tall person, just to get up to an overhead cabinet.
