Would you rather be 7 ft tall or run a 4.0 second 40?

[dlowilly]

And why?

[2daBank]

Run fast. Being fast is cool, being 7 foot is just awkward.

[cincinnatikid513]

tall people dont live as long

[Cuse0323]

Tall to be in the NBA. I’d like my chances of making it better than being fast. Don’t wanna live long anyway.

[robbypark]

I would be seen as a freak if I was 7 ft tall. I'd rather have explosive speed.

[Cuse0323]

I’d probably just use the speed to run from the cops anyway.

[Plaza23]

If I could be any pro athlete in the world, it'd be a golfer. I would never want to be 7 feet tall. I'm a laidback person and wouldn't like standing out. 4.3 40 I mean who cares? I'd rather be a highly paid golfer than Usain Bolt.

[d2bets]

Nobody runs the 40 in 4.0 seconds so doing that would be pretty cool. 7 footers are a dime a dozen.

[DiggityDaggityDo]

7’ tall
7” penis

I’ll take that.

[jtoler]

never would like to be 7 feet tall even with career in nba that only lasts for so long

4.0 not 4.3

BIG difference

I feel like anyone saying 7ft ain't grasping how fuggin fast you talking bout!! No way would I want to be 7ft!! It sucks trying to find my size 14 shoes, imagine everything being too damn small, and being all awkward, can't even fit comfortably in vehicles, etc etc etc. fukk that noise. I wanna go fast!!

I figured it would need to be ridiculously fast because speed is nowhere near a guarantee to be paid as an athlete (I guess maybe you could get shoe endorsements deals), but being 7 ft tall or more a statistician once determined you would have a 17% chance of playing in the NBA and probably a greater than 50% of playing somewhere professionally plus chicks would want to get with ur giant junk

[thechaoz]

Yeah speed fades but being able to dunk with a trunk in the junk lasts forever.

I'll take the 7 feet

[MinnesotaFats]

A 4.0 40 puts you in either the NFL or MLB (assuming you can bunt or get a hit here and there)

That speed is worth just as much $$$ as the height is in NBA and you don't look weird.

I played against Joel Pryzbela in high school (he went to Montecellio here in MN)... guy was just weird...gets off bus and all long and gangly.

Made great $$ in NBA- didn't do anything but be 7 feet tall...but now what?

At least fast rich old guys still get to be normal later in life...

[The Kraken]

I'd go with the speed, those guys are always in phenomenal shape and if you're clocking a 4.0 40, you've got good genes.

7' is a better chance to be a pro-athlete but if you didn't make, you're always gonna be uncomfortable in cars, planes, hotels etc...

I've got buddy that is 6'11", played college ball at a Christian school in Oklahoma but he was never was confident or comfortable in his skin. Married a hottie though

[sourtwist]

Gimme that speed baby I'll take care of the rest

[mrpapageorgio]

How tall would I be if I chose to run that fast? Current height I am now or Peter Dinklage height?

[DiggityDaggityDo]

I wish I could be 7 feet tall AND run a 4.0 40.

[dlowilly]

How tall would I be if I chose to run that fast? Current height I am now or Peter Dinklage height?

Same height as now

im really surprised that out of 6 billion people in the world one hasn’t had a mutation allowing them to run a 4.0 40

[mrpapageorgio]

40 in 4 seconds then.

[HurryUpAndDrink]

7 feet... chicks like tall dudes

[wquine]

4.0 forty and I'm white? pretty much instant fame just with that.

[thechaoz]

7 feet... chicks like tall dudes

We're just penetrating winners aren't we?

[cincinnatikid513]

7 feet... chicks like tall dudes

yah tall like 6 foot 3 can u imagine being 7 feet tall that would suck u would have to constantly duck your head to get into doors, clothes are hard to get, driving in cars airplanes uncomfortable, plus your going to get asked every day do u play basketball, give me the 4.0 speed because anybody that fast is going to be an olympic star and get all those hot olympic women

[slambam]

I'll take the speed. If you have speed you're probably pretty athletic. When I was in high school there was a kid who was 7 foot tall as a sophomore. Kid didn't have an athletic bone in his body. Not the lanky kind, but the kid was a brick house, built like Andre the Giant. Basketball coaches talked him into playing, but he was just so slow he never saw the floor. Kid was 7 foot tall and couldn't even dunk. But yes, gimme the speed in a heartbeat.

You from PA?

I’ll take the height
I’ve always dreamt of being a professional volleyball player

[19th Hole]

4 sec.40 would be great.
Being a speed merchant in a 6' 4-5" frame with mad athletic skills would be
an optimum physical goal.
Look out world here I come!!

But nobody's ran a 4.0 40. So you're basically asking whether you'd want to be the fastest man on earth, or 7'0 tall. I really don't think either of those traits have long term value.

[will2survive]

Very easy question to answer:

Very tall people (7 foot and above and even a bit shorter), don't live long lives (Something regarding oxygen intake). How many 7 footers live 80+ years? Don't say Bill russell. He's 6 foot 9 and has one foot in the grave.

Larry Bird has stated that he know's that he's tall and thinks he won't have a long life. Moses Malone, Daryl Dawkins, Wilt, Jerome Kersey....I can go on and on. Not to mention that furniture and cars.etc. aren't made for 7 footers. I would rather have olympic-like speed and make money off of that attribute.

Don't show off with your size 14 shoes, chumpstain. I wear 14 EEEE. You're nothing special. You f'ed with my kid and nothing is forgotten. Trying to show how big and powerful that you are. Your 14's are shit, knitwit!

Fukk you and your retarded limp dik kid, you both nothing but worthless drains on society, and yea face to face id bury my size 14 shoe straight up your bitch ass and you would cry just like you always do on here you bleeding heart, everyone please feel sorry for my deformed kid, pussy. Hope you both get hit by a bus and stop draining us of our tax dollars yon piece of shit.

I'm going in to work now, you know those things called jobs! You losers get paid off my back, pathetic. No what I do bitch? Demolition. You think that big and powerful too? You right it is, builds lots more muscle than sitting your fat ass on couch taking care of some deformed retard child!! So anytime you wanna see this 6'1 250 lb built like a brick shithouse, bad mfer that breaks shit for a living all day you go ahead and give me a call welfare boy. I'll wait for whatever bitch little reply you make while doing nothing all day, all those just the facts fat boy.

[grease lightnin]
