according to the geniuses in the comments, it is either a nuclear weapon from world war 2, or a turtle that is at least 400 years old.

hm, i wonder, are taller people more prone to ankle injuries? i think it might be that way since it's not like their ankles are necessarily thicker or stronger but they have to deal with resisting a longer lever and more mass. I suppose that having longer leg muscles helps counteract that a bit.

maybe

quote:

Height and Weight

Height and weight have been implicated as risk factors: when an athlete is in an at-risk position for inversion ankle trauma, an increase in either height or weight proportionally increases the magnitude of inversion torque that must be resisted by the ligaments and muscles that span the ankle complex. The investigation of collegiate athletes by our group demonstrated that height and weight were not independent risk factors for ankle sprains. Similar findings were reported by Sitler et al. In contrast, Watson found that male soccer athletes who sustained ankle sprains had greater height than those who did not. Milgrom et al reported that during basic training, male military recruits who were taller and heavier were at increased risk of suffering an ankle injury.

Longer muscles basically doesn't help at all, which is why square-cube law says gymnasts are tiny.

Tall people often neglect their ankles since typically they don't use them that much. Ankles just aren't that useful at that altitude. Nerve signal also attenuate with distance, so tall people often don't even notice when distal appendages break or go missing. Can be a real issue for example for giraffes or giraffe like people.

Can confirm, I'm pretty tall and it's very difficult for me to lean down and drink from water sources.

It's not that. You spend hours in the stall and keep poking your head over the edge to ask for toilet paper.

The original was made in 1970. They did what they could at the time with the budget they had.

Surprisingly nice, for an evil Inca mummy.
The 1970 film is good, and unlike the HBO series is actually interested in being an adaptation of the novel.
