The irony is that he's actually not that tall. It was practical effects. Not digital.

He's 7ft tall. Even being 6'3, my reaction to a 7ft tall person is, "Holy shit, that's one tall dude."

It's crazy being a tall(ish) person and seeing someone a full head/shoulder above you. If I notice a tall person they're tall.
